The man, Vaughn Anderson, held the dying woman in his arms as he called 911. But by the time Weber County sheriff's deputies arrived, she was dead.
Marsha Winter, a cousin of Raines, said Fujimoto shouldn't have been swimming in the reservoir when and where she was. Winter bristled at the implication that her cousin had been on drugs at the time and said Fujimoto was "asking" to get hit by a boat.

"She was an accident waiting to happen," Winter said outside the courtroom Wednesday. "She had no business being out there. ... And the boys did ask her if she was OK. I know nobody believes it now, but she told them to leave. She was nasty and told them to leave, so they left."
Prosecutors dismissed these claims, saying the area where Fujimoto swam was not frequented by boaters because the water was so shallow.

Astaxanthin is a carotenoid that has tremendous benefits for your health. Although it is a carotenoid, it does not act in the same way as beta-carotene. Astaxanthin is not converted to Vitamin A in your body. It is responsible for the red pigment of many marine animals such as shrimp and salmon.
What are best the sources of astaxanthin?
Astaxanthin is primarily found in the microalgae Haematococcus pluvialis. This microalga is the richest source of astaxanthin in nature and is the source most used by manufacturers to make commercially available supplements. Haematococcus pluvialis is consumed by animals such as shrimp, lobster, salmon, flamingoes and krill and is responsible for giving them their rich colors.
Manufacturers produce astaxanthin from Haematococcus pluvialis because, apart from the fact that it has the highest concentration of the nutrient, it reproduces very quickly and is therefore commercially viable. It multiplies fast by doubling its mass every week.
Over 40g of astaxanthin can be produced from 1 kg of Haematococcus pluvialis. Astaxanthin must be produced carefully so that it can maintain its stability. It is usually grown outdoors in a tropical setting and the best manufacturers produce it in a remote facility in an area that is free of pollution.
Practically all seafood that has a reddish pinkish hue contains astaxanthin. The highest seafood source is salmon, especially wild sockeye salmon. In salmon astaxanthin is concentrated mainly in the muscles. This is what gives salmon the stamina to swim long distances upstream without stopping. One hundred grams of sockeye salmon yield up to 4.5 mg of astaxanthin.
Be sure to eat only wild caught salmon since farm-raised salmon contains only a fraction of the astaxanthin found in the wild one. Wild salmon can contain up to nine times the astaxanthin of farm-raised salmon.
Farm-raised salmon is fed synthetic astaxanthin which is made from petrochemicals. This may contain chemicals that are not good for your health. Moreover, the natural astaxanthin that salmon consume in the wild is many times more potent than the synthetic kind.
Krill is a small, shrimp-like organism that belongs to the family of crustaceans. They are found in oceans all over the world. The oil from krill is considered one of the best sources of healthy omega-3 oils. Krill oil also contains astaxanthin. Krill consume the microalgae that contain astaxanthin and of course, when you consume krill oil you get the benefit of the astaxanthin.
Krill have incredible stamina for their size. Also, they are known for their longevity in the wild and experts have attributed much of that longevity to the krill's high concentration of astaxanthin.
Other types of crustaceans including shrimp, lobster and crabs contain astaxanthin. It is the compound that is responsible for giving them their color. When you consume a diet rich in seafood, you are able to introduce astaxanthin into your diet.
Supplementation With Astaxanthin
Although seafood contains astaxanthin, you cannot just rely on your diet of seafood to give you an adequate supply. Relying solely on food as a source of astaxanthin means you would have to consume very large quantities of seafood. This is neither practical nor cost effective. Moreover, with the level of contamination in the earth's oceans and the warnings from government about mercury and other toxic materials in seafood, you want to carefully watch your intake.
This is why supplementation of astaxanthin from a reliable source is the best way to ensure that you are getting enough into your diet. The most effective supplementation source is the microalgae Haematococcus pluvialis.
Follow the astaxanthin dosage guidelines of the manufacturers carefully and as always, consult your healthcare practitioner before starting any supplement, especially if you have health conditions.

Cyber Monday
If getting out of the house and fighting crowds isn't for you -- don't worry. Cyber Monday is finally here.
The National Retail Federation says eight in ten retailers will offer special Cyber Monday deals.
And many such as Amazon, Target and Walmart are now promoting "Cyber Week" and extending web-only deals through next weekend.
The online discounts apply to all types of items, from appliances to clothes to consumer electronics.
And if you don't want to go site to site looking for deals, some sites like "savings.com" and "pricegrabber.com" pull coupons and deals from multiple retailers.
Take advantage of deal sites as well as online databases that help collect all that information in one place. It really takes the hard work out of it for you.
Last year - cyber sales hit one point five billion dollars.
Experts say this year could reach closer to two billion.

Breakdown of information gathered from an interview from Dr. Leese:
- The drug policy has not changed at all. Its enforcement HAS changed.
- Any student caught using or in the possession of illegal drugs (excluding alcohol in the case of minors) will be taken to Williamson County jail by SUPD.
- No arrests have been made as of yet, nor have the drug dogs found anything. There were 4 incidents last week that were not the result of canine detection units.
- Dr. Leese neither confirmed nor denied whether or not the results of the confidential drug use survey instigated the change in drug policy enforcement.
- Room searches will not be casually ordered.
In response to "the email," numerous responses have been made – mostly consisting a strongly opposed group, which in the beginning had very little information (like everyone) and chose to use Nazi references to create interest and a group opposed to the incendiary commentary provided by the first group. The two groups held small gatherings, intended to be protests, on the mall at 11 am on Thursday. On Friday an open forum is being held with the administration when pretty much all of this same stuff will be said.

I won't be the first person to tell you that Bryson is smart, funny, and has absorbed British sarcasm by osmosis so seamlessly that it almost trumps us when narrated in the velvety American accent of the actor on this audiobook. Small town America is pulled apart, examined forensically by each of its cast of stock characters and institutions, and then put back together with a new-found affection by both you and the author. This book is like dismantling an old Chevy, finding that it still works, restoring it and then driving it around proudly. You'll feel both the European distaste for anything nouveau that Bryson has adopted, and the universal pull towards Americana. Brilliant.

Lady Gaga better not get snubbed this year. I don't understand it... she's one of the most followed, most popular, best-selling, highly appreciated and idolized musicians in the industry... yet somehow these award shows always seem to "forget" she exists. I know she accomplished so much so quickly, but seriously... if someone like Rihanna or Katy Perry beats her in the most coveted award spots, I'm going to be infuriated. Rihanna doesn't write her own music... and they both suck at performing. Lady Gaga gives everything she does 200% effort 100% of the time.

Low-cost drug list to transform pharmaceutical industry in China
Economic Information Daily (经济参考报), a business newspaper published by Xinhua News Agency, ran a story on November 17 reporting that the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) may soon release a list of drugs that must be sold at low prices in China with the aim of reducing the financial burden of medical care on citizens and hospitals. The list may have a significant impact on the pharmaceutical industry: some out-of-production low-cost drugs will be protected and return to the market, while the makers of high cost drugs on the list will have their profit margins squeezed. The article also predicts that the pharmaceutical industry may soon see another round of mergers and acquisitions.
"Low-cost drugs" refers to the cheaper of the drug options used to treat a particular medical condition. The article quotes an informed source as saying that NDRC is expected to set the standard for low-cost drugs at a daily average cost of three yuan for western drugs and five yuan for processed Traditional Chinese Medicine (中成药, sometimes called "Chinese patent medicine"). The criteria and the list will be reviewed and adjusted every two to four years.
Low margins have been the primary cause that discourages pharmaceutical companies from selling low-cost drugs. As a result, hospitals are sometimes unable to obtain low-cost drugs, leaving patients with no choice but to buy more expensive alternatives.

Women Read More Violent Crime Than Men
It seems like we estrogen carriers have a little case of the Twilight Syndrome -- even more than our men!
Dr. Wendy Walsh: In the middle of a divorce battle, Sheila Bellush, a mother of quadruplets, confided to her sister that if anything were to ever happen to her, she should look up true crime author Ann Rule to tell her story. Sure enough, soon after, Sheila was shot and killed by a man hired by her husband. Rule's book about the crime, "Every Breath You Take," has sold over a million copies, and 86 percent of its reviews on Amazon.com are written by women readers.
This anecdote is used in a new study that reveals why books that evoke fear are popular with women. People might assume that men, being the more aggressive sex, would be most likely to find such gory topics interesting. But the reverse is true. The researchers found that what makes books about graphic crime appealing to women is a survival instinct -- a desire to learn about crime in order to prevent becoming a victim. The study, "Captured by True Crime: Why Women are Drawn to Tales of Rape, Murder, and Serial Killers," is published in Social, Psychological and Personality Science, and makes a connection with women's fascination with crime and their internal fear. Despite the fact that women are statistically less likely than men to become a victim of a violent crime (with the exception of rape), they perceive themselves to be in more danger. Some researchers blame the media, which tends to award more coverage to violent crimes against women than those with male victims.
The problem with the practice of reading about crime, according to the researchers, is that it can become a vicious cycle. Women feel fear and read about crime in order to be better informed about ways to prevent or survive a crime, but they also become unknowingly exposed to more dangers! They meet more murderers, more unusual ways to bite the bullet, and their fear factor goes up. Thus, the books become a fear-based cycle for women who are buying them to decrease their fears.
All this got me thinking about the obsession my daughter and her friends have with the Twilight series of books and movies. With vampires around every corner, there is no shortage of danger and blood flow in those pages. And clearly there is much confusion for heroine Bella as to which man-boy-vampire can be trusted. I wonder if the principles that the researchers discovered about true crime novels also apply to this kind of romantic thriller.
In today's times, love has become a dangerous game for teen girls. While most of the sexual mores -- like the double standard -- have been removed, women are still more at risk for pregnancy, an STD, or a broken heart (women's oxytocin release during orgasm helps create a bond). Could the Twilight vampires, a metaphor for dangerous love, be one way that young girls are trying to make sense of all this?
And if the researchers' speculations are true, might this also become a vicious cycle? More stories about dangerous love means more exposure to ways that women can be hurt by men. Besides the Twilight series, there are enough literary clones to warrant a large display table at my local Barnes & Noble called "Dark Love." Is this what our daughters fear today? Dark love?
|Dr. Wendy Walsh holds a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology and her area of interest is Attachment Theory, a psychological, evolutionary and ethological theory that provides a descriptive and explanatory framework for understanding interpersonal relationships between human beings. As a psychological assistant registered with the California Board of Psychology, Dr. Walsh has treated individuals, couples and families for a variety of mental health concerns including personality disorders, anger management, eating and substance disorders, and depression. Connect with Dr. Walsh on Facebook.
Yep. We know we're prey.
I have read every book from Ann Rule. I'm reading "and I trused you" right now. I love reading true crime books.

Just days ago, I wrote an article claiming that the talk of the Kansas City Chiefs firing Todd Haley and drafting Andrew Luck was absurd. I thought it was premature to completely give up on a coach and a QB that led the team to a 10-6 season just a year ago. I was trying to be optimistic about a terrible situation. I am a fan, after all, so I am just as prone to deluding myself about the Chiefs as the next guy.
I can't do that any longer. I was wrong. The Chiefs are in big trouble and it is going to take bold changes to right the ship, but that does not mean it is time to tear the whole team apart. In fact, if GM Scott Pioli makes the right decisions over the next few months, the Chiefs could have another turnaround season in 2012.
The 2011 Chiefs are not going to the playoffs. The problems they have on both sides of the ball, combined with the loss of key starters to injury, is not something that is going to be fixed over the course of a couple of weeks. If Pioli is smart, he will turn his attention to getting the team ready to be competitive again in 2012.
Here is how he can do it.
The first thing Pioli has to do is admit he made a mistake and fire Todd Haley. Over the course of the next three games, Haley is going to demonstrate just how bad of a job he has done coaching this team. If you thought the Chiefs looked bad playing the Bills and the Lions, that is nothing compared to what awaits them in San Diego next week. It is going to get much uglier and the calls for Haley's head are going to get louder.
I think the Chiefs will also lose to the Vikings in Week Four. After that, a loss to the woeful Colts in Indianapolis would seal Haley's fate. Even if the Chiefs manage to win that game, it likely won't be pretty.
The bye week is the perfect time for Pioli to cut ties with Haley. There will be enough evidence that Haley massively failed to prepare his team and allowed them to get off to a historically bad start. Nobody will be able to fault Pioli for cutting ties. Leaving Haley on board will only delay the inevitable and further damage the team's psyche. Haley has to go and he has to go before the end of the season.
Pioli should immediately name Romeo Crennel the interim head coach. The change won't necessarily make things much better in the win column but it will hit the reset button for the players. Romeo is notoriously popular with players and he'll be able to get the Chiefs to keep fighting down the stretch. It will be a win-win situation for both Pioli and Crennel. Romeo can mentor KC's young talent, minus the Todd Haley head games. At the same time, Crennel can audition for another head coaching job. The rest of the season can be used to evaluate guys like Jon Asamoah, Rodney Hudson, Jerrelle Powe, Jalili Brown and Allen Bailey.
Depending on how the rest of the season plays out and how the team responds under Crennel, Pioli will have a big decision to make and he'll have to get it right. If the team plays really well under Crennel, Pioli may be tempted to leave Crennel on as coach. I think that would be a mistake.
No, the minute after Pioli fires Todd Haley, he should be on the phone with Bill Cowher. I can think of no better choice to succeed Haley. Cowher is a proven winner with ties to the Chiefs. His teams in Pittsburgh were build to run the ball and play a tough, 3-4 defense. The Chiefs run a 3-4 so there would be no major scheme changes. Cowher is the kind of hire that would excite and inspire the players. The move would re-energize a fan base that is sure to be extremely angry by the conclusion of the 2011 season.
Since the Chiefs won't be in the playoffs, the team could bring Cowher in quickly and get to the business of evaluating the roster for 2012. The first order of business will be devising a plan for obtaining a true franchise QB. By the end of the 2011 season, even the staunchest of Cassel supporters will be forced to relent. The Chiefs will need to do whatever it takes to get themselves the best possible QB for 2012.
The Kansas City Chiefs are a talented team. One thing Scott Pioli has done right was re-signing guys like Derrick Johnson, Brandon Flowers and Jamaal Charles. The talent base is there. It is not crazy to think that Bill Cowher, paired with a capable QB, could not get the Chiefs back on track quickly.
Pioli is fond of saying that he values substance over sizzle. Bill Cowher is both substance and sizzle.
Is Scott Pioli bold enough to make these moves? I'm not so sure. It would mean admitting he was wrong about Haley and Cassel, and he might not be willing to do that.
Things didn't get this bad by accident, and they won't be fixed by doing nothing. If Pioli takes bold action to correct his mistakes, he could save this team. If he doesn't, he may find himself out of a job as well.

Round 1: Jardine started off early with leg kicks. Rockhold the pressed the challenger against the cage and the two traded knees to each other's midsections. They separated with a Rockhold elbow, and the champ landed a couple spinning back kicks. Rockhold landed a nice right that shook Jardine. Jardine recovered, but Rockhold landed another right had a short while later. Smelling blood, Rockhold moved forward and began a flurry where a third right hand found its mark and dropped Jardine. Rockhold continued pounding away with his opponent on the ground and referee Herd Dean stepped in to stop the fight at 4:26 of Round 1. Rockhold retains his middleweight title with the TKO win.

San Diego • Of all the crazy stories that BYU football players like to tell about their teammate from Ghana who played football for the first time just two years ago but is on the verge of becoming an NFL first-round draft pick, linebacker Brandon Ogletree has maybe the best one.
Just the other day, Ogletree says, defensive end Ezekiel "Ziggy" Ansah asked him what NFC and AFC meant, and the differences between the two conferences in the NFL.
"It is just hilarious, because you think he is here," says Ogletree, holding his hand at eye level. "But he will say stuff that makes you realize he is almost like a baby when it comes to understanding football. It's totally hilarious, but totally cool."
And it's totally the best story of an otherwise mediocre season for the 7-5 Cougars, who will meet 9-3 San Diego State on Thursday night in the Poinsettia Bowl.
Much more was expected of the Cougars last August with a senior quarterback and experience on both sides of the ball. What was unexpected was the 6-foot-6, 270-pound Ansah, a special teams ace last year who began the season on the bench. He didn't start a game until Week 5 against Hawaii after getting his first real consistent time when Eathyn Manumaleuna went down with a season-ending knee injury against Boise State.
Now, one can't watch or read an NFL mock draft without noticing Anzah's name at the forefront. And his unique story — he was discovered in his hometown of Accra, Ghana, by LDS Church missionary Ken Frei and steered to BYU because he wanted a shot at playing professional basketball like his hero, LeBron James — was featured in Sports Illustrated.
"It is a great feeling. But most of all it is really humbling," said Ansah, who had to be told that being the subject of a major SI article is quite a big deal in this country. "I never knew I would get this far. It has been really humbling to me."
Ansah was twice cut from BYU's basketball team after tryouts, so he tried track, competing favorably in the 400 against guys half his size. Finally, BYU track coaches took him over to the football offices and introduced the player who has come to be known as "The Freak" to BYU coach Bronco Mendenhall and his staff.
To the teammates who literally had to show Ansah how to put on his hip, shoulder and thigh pads when he had them on backward, upside down or in the wrong places, the story is simply amazing.
"The first time he lined up, he looked like a crouching frog," says linebacker Kyle Van Noy. "Funniest thing I ever saw. … He was just raw. He still is raw. But the potential he has is more than anyone I have ever seen play a sport, actually."
The NFL is noticing. Todd McShay, an ESPN draft analyst, most recently had Ansah going in the first round, 24th overall, in his mock draft. Draft expert Mel Kiper Jr. told The Salt Lake Tribune that Ansah is going to be a high pick.
"We keep watching game after game, and Ansah is out there producing, and showing that great, great talent," Kiper said. "Jason Pierre-Paul [of the New York Giants] would be the guy that you automatically compare him to … because he was a guy that was in a rotation at South Florida, and all of a sudden he becomes a first-round draft pick, and now he is one of the best defensive ends, one of he best pass rushers, in the league. So Ansah is going to draw those comparisons."
Kiper said a lot of defensive ends could go in the first three rounds and Ansah could be the first senior DE taken if he shows well in the Senior Bowl in Mobile, Ala., next month and in the NFL Combine in February.
"I would say mid-first round, early first round is not out of the realm of possibility," he said.
Ansah is well-equipped to count up the money an early-round draftee can expect to make — he had four statistics classes last semester alone and is on track to graduate next spring with a degree in actuarial science — but doesn't have a grasp on exactly how much money NFL football players make, teammates say.
"He probably knows more than he's letting on," Ogletree said. "But [his rapid improvement] has never been about making it to the NFL. It has been really fun watching him evolve, and just his understanding and awareness, and just how tough he has gotten. He used to be the least physical player on the team. Now, no one is more physical."
Around campus, Ansah is known for wearing bright-colored clothing and large eye-glasses with no lenses in them so he will appear more studious. But he's easily one of the smartest players on the team — a reason he was able to pick up football so quickly.
"I still have a long way to go," Ansah says when he's told he is about five months away from being a very wealthy man. "I am not thinking about that yet."
Mendenhall said so many agents and other folks are trying to get a piece of Ansah that the school has been forced to "put extra layers of help" in front of him.
"There is really no place he can go without someone trying to advise him or trying to be affiliated with him," Mendenhall said. "I think we have done a nice job managing possible mentors for him and really trying to protect him so he can finish his [schoolwork] and just play football. But we are having to put a lot of focus on it."
Because if the past three months have taught them anything, it is that the spotlight on Ansah is only going to get brighter.

Out of nowhere
BYU's Ezekiel 'Ziggy' Ansah started the season as an unknown, but is now getting plenty of attention:
• Projected to go 24th overall in April's NFL Draft by ESPN's Todd McShay
• Had eight tackles against Boise State, Georgia Tech
• Is a Phil Steele All-Independent First-Teamer
• Had career-high three tackles for loss and two sacks against Utah State

Innovative Twitter Campaign Gains 56,000 Tweets in Only Three Days
Twitter campaigns can be interesting if the brand running the campaign knows what they are doing. One campaign ran on Twitter was run by Turkcell, a Turkish telecoms company who was trying to promote their new smartphones bundled with internet. The purpose of the campaign was to create awareness among the people who use the internet daily that would be interested in the product and spreading the word about it. The campaign was full of post-its, games, and a lot of tweets.
The campaign was generated towards Twitter users because that is where they noticed most people like to spend their time, and it is also an easy way to get messages out to the public. They also knew that heavy internet users tend to avoid banner advertising so they decided to create a live competition that would hopefully catch many user's attention, and that is exactly what it ended up doing.
The first step they took was getting a gift box to put the phones in then decorating it with many sticky notes that had various different sayings on them. Then they used a live video feed and asked users to start uncovering the box by tweeting what the sticky notes said using the hashtag #Turkcelltweet. By using Twitter connect, tweeters were able to log into the company's mini site to participate in the on going competition. As soon as more and more sticky notes started to uncover the box, the company started writing their campaign messages on the remaining sticky notes. The tweeters participating then voluntarily started to retweet those messages to all of their followers.
Throughout the competition, in order to keep things interesting, the company would play many games including pictionary, trivia, and word puzzles. The winners of these games played won mobile minutes and mobile data packages. Once it finally came down to the very last row of sticky notes, the company asked the tweeters to get the messages retweeted by a celebrity. Whoever was to do so first with each message was to receive one of the phones bundled with internet inside the gift box.
The competition ran for 7 days only three hours each day. During the duration of the contest they received 56,734 tweets under their hashtag and during just the first day they topped the trends list in Twitter and remained there for the next eight days. Many people joined in the fun including many celebrities with a huge amount of followers which resulted in their little tweets being spread out to over 3.6 million tweeters. This campaign generated a lot of buzz about how innovative and how much fun it was to participate in. Twitter campaigns can be difficult to master but Turkcell did a very good job at it. The uniqueness of this contest is the reason why so many people became interested in participating.

T-Mobile's Angry Bird Youtube Video hits 5 Million Views in 1 Week
T-Mobile has already had much success with past innovative and fun social media campaigns. Just this past year they took it a step further promoting their new smart phones by reenacting the new hit game Angry Birds in 3-D. T-Mobile created a life sized installation of the game. The installation was fully set up with barricades, flying birds, full sound affects and even exploding pigs.
To set up the real life setting of Angry Birds T-Mobile headed to Barcelona, Spain. With flying birds and real explosions it gave people an idea of what the game would look like in real life. During this campaign T-Mobile set up a booth for players to play Angry Birds while the replica in front of them recreated what they were doing on the smart phone.
The real life game was a huge hit for many to watch. To set the mood for the fans, T-Mobile had a band playing a remix of the Angry Birds theme song. While shooting the footage for the Youtube video, the team wanted to catch every angle of the game. They depicted the crowd going crazy every time a pig was hit, and even put a camera in one of the birds to show the view of the bird when being launched. It was fun for everyone involved and even more fun for the millions of fans watching. T-Mobile definitely caught the targeted audiences attention with this "out there" campaign.
Once the video of this campaign, "Life is for Sharing", went up on Youtube it quickly went viral with more than five million views in only one week. T-Mobile kept their actions unique, fun, and creative to keep current customers and to gain potential ones. They wanted to show customers that no matter where they were, they can always join in the fun with their very own smart phones.Read More
Innovative Campaign Makes Fans the Salespeople
The Kaiser Chiefs, an alternative band from England, admit that the music business is a tough market to be in. They find it to be very competitive. Since social media has started to emerge, it has changed the music industry. Instead of music lovers going out to buy albums of their favorite bands, it is much easier to just download their favorite songs from different albums. To help sell their new album, Midevil is the Future, The Kaiser Chiefs came out with an innovative social media campaign.
The Kaiser Chiefs new campaign allows their fans to design their own cover for the new album and gives them the opportunity to sell that album that they have made. By going to their website www.kaiserchiefs.com, at the very top of the page users can click on "create your own album". The fans then get to discover they are able to choose ten out of the twenty songs from the Kaiser Chiefs new album. They then get to design the cover of their newly made album out of ten different pictures that they get to choose from. The great part about this is that each time you get on the site to create an album, the pictures are always different. Meaning, each album made will always be unique.
After users have chosen their favorite songs from the album and designed their very own album cover, they can download their creation for $7.50. Once the download is complete, users get the opportunity to sell their customized album on the Kaiser Chiefs website. They get to have their very own page to sell through any social channels including Facebook, Twitter and e-mail. The admirable function of this campaign is every time a user sells their newly created album, they receive one dollar for each sell.
This innovative campaign is an adept way to get their new album out to all of their fans. The fans get to be involved with the sales and by doing this it spreads the word of the new album. The campaign created a lot of buzz online for the band and it shows that the band is willing to try new and different ways to generate sales. With the help from this campaign, the Kaiser Chiefs have already sold thousands and thousands of albums.
Sample album covers made by fans
The Kaiser Chiefs produced a video on Youtube explaining a little about how the campaign works. The fans are the producers of their own albums.Read More
The Innovative Campaign That Caught Millions of People's Attention
Think! Social Media focuses on creating successful social media campaigns for people in the tourism industry. Their goal is to show people the many great tourist attractions there are around the world. They create success for these people by finding innovative ways to communicate to people about tourism through social networks.
A good example of what Think! Social Media does is the story of their Super Bowl Social Media Campaign that quickly got 2.4 million people talking. This campaign shows the power of social media and how quickly word can spread through social networks. The campaign was focused towards Tourism Dallas the weekend before Super Bowl XLV between Green Bay and Pittsburgh. The goal of this campaign was to show people the many great tourism places there are to visit while in Dallas.
Think! Social Media started the campaign out by sending a Mystery Man to the cities of the two teams going into the Super Bowl. They also contacted bloggers from each city with a high following rate and engaged readers to spread the word about the campaign and to give daily clues of where the Mystery Man would be. The purpose of this campaign was to get people out and about the town to different places looking for this man. You would see people talking to other people saying the phrase "Have you been to Dallas lately?" The person to say that to the Mystery Man was to instantly win tickets to the Super Bowl, four night accommodations, tickets to the NFL experience, and cash to go towards travel. The result of this was thousands of people roaming the streets trying to find this man.
Each clue that was given was tied with imagery and facts of popular places to visit in Dallas. Adding pictures to the clues made sharing the clues easy to post on Twitter and eye-catching to those on Facebook. As the weekend went on the clues would continue to become more specific of the whereabouts of the Mystery Man. One example of a clue was "At 3pm the Mystery Man will be exploring around Market Square." In order to get access to the clues given, participants would have to first go to Visit Dallas Facebook Fan Page and 'like' it.
When Think! Social Media started this Mystery Man campaign, they knew it was a great idea, but the results that came from it exceeded all expectations. Millions of people were talking about the Mystery Man, going up to strangers asking if they have been to Dallas lately. Before the campaign started the Visit Dallas Facebook Fan Page only had 600 fans, by the end of the first day as word spread, their fan base grew to one thousand. As word spread even further news stations began reporting about what they were doing. By then end of the week, the Facebook fan page had over three thousand fans. Once the first clue was given out the Friday before the big game, there were people flooding the streets of Green Bay and Pittsburgh searching for the Mystery Man. Many stayed active on Facebook and Twitter talking with others about where he may be. Their goal had been accomplished once they noticed millions of people in two large cities were constantly talking about Dallas and it still did not end there.
By the end of Friday night the Dallas fan page had grown to eight thousand 'likes' and their Twitter account had well over 1,500 followers. Once Saturday came around there were so many people searching the streets for this man that it was hard for him to go unnoticed. The man in Green Bay was first found by a homeless couple living at a local shelter, then shortly after the man in Pittsburgh was found in the afternoon. News stations went on a frenzy interviewing the winners, inviting them on their shows. A countless number of blogs, radio stations, websites and newspapers were reporting about this very successful campaign.
Think! Social Media is very proud of the success of this campaign. It was a campaign that got millions of people talking that they did not cost a single dollar of media spend to promote it. This shows just how powerful social networks on the web can be. The team at Think! Social Media knew that all they needed to do was reach out to the right people, in this case it was football fanatics. Once they reached out to those with a love of football, it was all smooth sailing from there. The people of the cities did the promoting for them by spreading the word about Dallas. The campaign brought awareness of all the attractions there are too see when visiting Dallas.
Along with the many campaigns Think! Social Media does for their clients, they also offer destinations five core-services: Education, Research, Strategy Development & Applications, such as their CMS welcome pages or Wildfire Facebook Competitions on their Facebook accounts. They work their hardest to bring awareness to Destination Marketing Organizations around the world.
"We are passionate about what we do and we believe that we are helping the world by enriching the travel experience of the consumer," quote from Co-Founder of Think! Social Media Ben Vadasz
Links to other successful campaigns run by Think! Social Media
Calgary Stampede has been a client of Think! Social Media for 2 years. When they first started business together Calgary Stampede only had 4,000 'likes' on their Facebook Fan Page.
When Tourism Montreal came to Think! Social Media they only had 4,500 'like', today that is much different.
Another popular campaign Think! Social Media ran was for Northern British Columbia. The campaign was a niche campaign that targeted towards people with a love of fishing that is offered in Northern BC. During the campaign the client gained over 4,000 fishing industry influencers engaging on the Northern BC Facebook Page.

Yes, it could be full-width without sidebar.
Now the demo page have been added to menu: Blog > Blog Full Width
great – i'll let my client know
Beautiful theme! What social icon-font are you using here?
Hi, two2twelve,
Do you mean the social media icon supported by this theme? For website(show on head), following icons are provided:
Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Tumblr, Google+, youtube, Vimeo, Flickr, Linkedin, Dribbble, Forst, Github, RSS
Nice theme, but it just falls a bit short. For example in the Portfolio & Gallery, when you click an image it loads a new page with the image left aligned. This creates a lot of unnecessary clicking to view all the images in a gallery. Why not have a lightbox pop up instead so you can scroll through all the images?
Thanks Brumos, we'll consider your advice in next update
What brumos said. Does gallery have a lightbox option?
I think maybe the little thumbnails(flipped) could be linked to a light-box and click on titles to go to content page.
I agree with the growing consensus. Lightbox required for the portfolio to be useful. (I suppose one could use a plug in, but it does seem like a missing piece of the theme.)
Lovely, though! Considering it…
Thanks your great suggestion. We'll consider your advice in next update.
Best, Bwsm
Hi, nice work! I have purchased it yesterday. Is it possible to send me sql database and all content of the featured example here? It is easier to redesign it rather than do my own from a blank page.
my email is firstname.lastname@example.com
Hi, thank you for purchasing our theme
I have sent your mail.
Best, Bwsm
Hi, great looking theme and gallery. Can the blog page be added to the end of the start page, as an extension to that page? So it wouldn't open up on a different page, but would appear when scrolled down.
No, I mean that could you display the blog post tiles on the "home" page?
So, when you scroll down the "home" page, first you would see the portfolio image-tiles and under that you would see the blog-tiles.
I have purchased the theme earlier today and have tried to figure out how you have made the frontpage on the demo (with the slider on top and several catogories displaying below). I have seen all the video's in the manual and read it more than twice, but still can't seem to figure out the following:
1) How can the frontpage consists of several categories showing? When I'm editing my frontpage(listpage) I can only choose 1 of my categories from "List Page Settings". In your demo several categories shows, so you have the chance to filter the portefolio (in your demo you can filter "All", "Graphic", "GUI", "Illustration" and "Photo").
2) When I want to add a slider (like your demo) at the top of the frontpage, I go to the "Slider Option" panel at the bottom of my frontpage (listpage). For some reason it's not possible to paste any text in their – it's like the field/box below the text "Please Enter LayerSlider Shortcode" is not made to write in ? And I need to paste my "[layerslider id="2"]" obviously before the slider will show.
3) In your demo the galleri images on the frontpage opens up in lightboxes. In my wordpress it loads a new page with the image left aligned. How can I make it like yours; opening in lightbox?
Please advice me what to do – It could have been great with the option to import your demo into my wordpress. That would make it much easier to figure out "how to" – and probably I wouldn't have posted the 3 questions above
Can't wait to get started with your theme – it looks amazing!!
/Anne ( email@example.com )
Hi, annehundborg, for your 2) and 3):
2) It's a bug. Please download the file ( uiueux.com/a/panda/metabox.zip ), unzip and replace the metabox.js in functions folder
3) Lightbox will be updated in 1-2 days to the download package.
Sorry to have brought you inconvenience.
Hi again,
I have solved issue number1 myself! So only need advice in number 2 and 3, thanks:)
Piling onto the Lightbox discussion… in your theme demo the image thumbs load full size into a lightbox, but when I set up my site, they launch a new window. wondering if there's a setting somewhere that I have missed?
Hi, Lightbox will be updated in 1-2 days to the download package.
Hi I just purchased your theme than you, I have installed the .xml file hoping to make it like your demo and change it from there, however I am getting lots of errors. I find that in your documentation it would be good if it was explained better a>z of how to set it up to make it like your demo in some sort of order. I look forward to your answer.. I am sure it is not as hard as it is seeming to get your theme working
Hi, thank you for purchasing our theme
Please try to use demo data following: http://themeforest.net/item/panda-responsive-portfolio-magazine-wp-theme/4151958/faqs/14847
If still report error, please send your comments and wp-admin to firstname.lastname@example.com . We'll login your wp-admin to check it
Best, Bwsm team
My clients wants to use this theme but on the home page, just have the slider and then text under, instead of the boxes.
Is this possible?
Thanks for your interest in our theme
It's possible. The slider could be used in static page,
Great, that's what I was hoping you'd say! Thank you
I love this theme and would like to use it for my site. I have a quick question – are the social media icons that appear under the navigation easily removable? I'd like to keep them only in the sidebar. Thanks!
Thanks for your interest in our theme.
Sure, there is the option to deactivate them
Is there a way to change the way the blog posts are listed? I'd like them to be listed out as full posts (several to a page) instead of in gallery format. Thank you.
Hi, thank you for purchasing our theme
Did you mean that list all standard posts in a list pge? You could try to select "Magazine list" in Page option / List Type whenin page editing.
Best, Bwsm team
Well, I actually would like them listed out as full posts (in a sense, to bypass the "list page" and go directly to a list of full-length posts in post format.) Is that possible? I've tried building a page with visual composer also, but it doesn't seem to have a "blog post" element. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.
Sorry, I am not very clear that "blog post" you mentioned. Did you ues Teaser in composer?
Yes, I've tried using Teaser in composer, but when you choose to show full-length posts, it messes up the formatting. I actually just want full posts to show on the list page. Any way to do that? If not, I don't think there is any way that I can use this theme. Is there any way to request a refund please?
Could you paste a screenshot or link?
here is a test page using Teaser in composer to create full-length teaser posts.http://www.meatlovessalt.com/test/
the problem with a page like that is it is hard to differentiate between posts (lack of date, author, commenting, etc.), and i also can't have all the posts listed or else it would go on forever. also, when you click on other categories like this:http://www.meatlovessalt.com/category/chicken/
it automatically goes to a list page which shows up as a gallery page or magazine list. i woud rather not create multiple full-length teaser static page for every single category.
is there a way to just make the "list page" show the latest posts in blog format? any help is appreciated. thanks.
Very sorry, there is not the option. You could try to transform the archive template "index.php". If you want to request a refund, please go got the page : http://support.envato.com/index.php?/Knowledgebase/Article/View/256/0/can-i-get-a-refund-for-an-item-i-have-purchased

South Bend, IN (Sports Network) - Notre Dame survived two Preston Knowles three-point attempts in the final minute of regulation before dominating in overtime, as Carleton Scott scored nine of his 16 points in the extra session to spark the eighth-ranked Fighting Irish over No. 16 Louisville, 89-79.
The Big East battle was no more than a two-possession game the entire second half and featured 13 ties and 10 lead changes. The Cardinals had two tries to hand the Irish their first home loss of the season in the closing seconds, but Knowles missed two from long range to force an extra five minutes.
Notre Dame cruised in OT, scoring the first 14 points to reach 20 wins by the earliest calendar date in program history.
Ben Hansbrough paced the Irish (20-4, 9-3 Big East) with 25 points despite playing in foul trouble for most of the game, and Tim Abromaitis chipped in 23 points and eight rebounds in the team's sixth straight win.
Kyle Kuric led all scorers with 28 points, while Terrence Jennings added 14 points and seven rebounds for Louisville (18-6, 7-4), which had won three of four.
Both teams entered the game near the top of the conference standings, and the outcome was appropriately decided down the stretch.
Louisville's Peyton Siva threw down an uncontested dunk and converted a tough drive for a 72-68 lead with a little over 3 1/2 minutes showing in the fourth.
Scott countered with a dunk at the other end, and after a series of empty touches, Hansbrough tied the game again by cutting between two defenders for an easy deuce with 1:53 on the clock.
Jennings' inside bucket was followed by two free throws from Tyrone Nash, and the Cardinals held the ball over the final 1:02 thanks to Hansbrough knocking a sure rebound out of bounds off Knowles' first missed three.
That miss came with 25.6 seconds left, and the Cardinals ran down the clock and attempted a deep try from the right wing at the buzzer, but Knowles' second crack at the win hit all iron.
Scott opened the extra session with a three-pointer, Hansbrough tacked on two free throws and Scott added three the old-fashioned way for the Irish's biggest lead of the game at that point, 82-74, less than two minutes in.
Nash made it double-digits with a jumper, and following Kuric's missed layup under the basket, Scott sent the Joyce Center crowd into a frenzy with a reverse dunk, providing too big a margin for Louisville to overcome.
"We certainly defended the last five minutes of the game to get to overtime, and then I thought we were fabulous in overtime," Notre Dame head coach Mike Brey said. "Our seniors finished the game and started the overtime because they felt they could win for us. It was a heck of a game."
Kuric exploded for 18 points in the first half and capped it with a thunderous dunk over Scott Martin while getting fouled. However, he was given a technical foul for taunting, and Abromaitis' two free throws followed by Kuric's make from the stripe resulted in a 44-40 halftime score in favor of the visitors.
"I was surprised to get that call, but it happens. The ref said that when I looked down at him, I taunted him and he gave me a [technical]," recalled Kuric.
The Irish scored the first seven points of the second half to continue the back-and-forth affair, and it stayed a see-saw battle from there.

ROCKY MOUNT — North Brunswick beat Trask 37-0 in a non-conference football game Friday, Aug. 29, the Scorpions' first victory of the season.
Senior running back Deshawn Montgomery scored three touchdowns and junior quarterback Tiger Bryant scored two.
North was erratic in the first quarter, as it lost a fumble on its first possession and were penalized seven times — yet the Scorpions led 16-0 entering the second quarter.
The following cases were adjudicated over five days of District Criminal Court on Aug. 19, 20, 21, 22 and 25 in Bolivia.
Codes: PG, pleaded guilty; PNG/NG, pleaded not guilty, found not guilty; PNG/G, pleaded not guilty, found guilty; BCDF, Brunswick County Detention Facility; NCDOC, North Carolina Department of Correction.
Tuesday, Aug. 19
Judge Jerry A. Jolly presided over the following cases with prosecutors Fred Gore and Cathi Radford and courtroom clerk Courtney Graham:
Have you ever laughingly placed your hands in a defensive position in front of your face and declared, "That's more information than I need to know!" Usually it happens when someone is offering personal, intimate, even graphic tidbits about health or hygiene. Embarrassment invades the space between speaker and listener and we'd rather not be party to the proffered data.
It seems that everyone wants to find that perfect food, the one that's going to solve all their health problems. I really don't think there is such a food, but there are two groups of goods that can help improve your health and reduce your risk of chronic disease. What are these foods?
Yes, you guessed it: fruits and vegetables.
Grits are a staple of the Southern breakfast. For those unfamiliar with them, grits are nothing more than coarsely ground, dried corn. If you grind it a little finer, you have the Italian staple, polenta … grind it finer yet, and you have corn meal.
I've heard that some places like to combine grits with hominy, which is soaked in lye. Why would you want to soak food in lye, and then actually eat it?

Several hundred thousands times a year, people in England and Wales file complaints about piles of public dog poop. The costs of accommodating the digestive wastes of UK dogs during trots are estimated to run about $37 million per year. That's a lot of poop bags, signs, trash bins and telephone calls. A recent scientific study set out to find out what's up with people and their pet's poop. Researchers identified five major poop personalities and hope to use this information to reduce all those piles and protests.

Did you know there are four different palm species that are native to the southeastern USA?
Of course, there are plenty of different kinds of palms grown in cultivation that are not native. One need only go to central and south Florida, or California, to understand that. But from northern Florida up to coastal North Carolina, there are indeed four different species that occur naturally in the wild.

During the past year, a number of face-to-face meetings have been conducted to explore and establish a path forward for organization and establishment of the Department of Energy (DOE) Cyber Sciences Laboratory. These meetings have been held at DOE HQ, The University of Texas at Arlington, and at Google in Chicago, and have enjoyed the participation of the DOE Office of Science and Office of the CIO (OCIO), the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) OCIO, and National Lab Directors and Chief Research Officers, among others. Directors of the National Laboratories and their Chief Research Officers have been briefed. Representatives from the research community and cyber defenders have also participated to discuss and refine ideas for establishing a visionary, science-based Cybersecurity program to benefit the broad needs of the DOE, while supporting National priorities.
A number of very positive results have materialized, including a CSL Charter and a research roadmap. This first workshop of the CSL will enable discussions of the research and development (R&D) program that the community would like to pursue.
The agenda is not yet available. A keynote from NNSA CIO Robert Osborn is planned.
All meetings will occur on-site at Oak Ridge National Laboratory in the Conference Center co-located upstairs from the Visitor Center in the Tennessee Room (202A, B and C).
The following links are helpful for directions on how to get to the CSL workshop:
A block of rooms under "Town Hall Meeting" has been reserved at the DoubleTree (www.doubletree.com) (865) 481-2468, 215 South Illinois Ave., Oak Ridge, Tennessee (additional travel information including nearby hotels).

Nike Air Max 24/7 – White – Black – Grey – Spring 2011
November 11th, 2010 by Aaron Kr. | 6 comments
The Nike Air Max 24/7 was introduced back in May in two familiar colorways. Bot the Volt and Varsity Red pairs were instant hits and top sellers for Nike due to the nostalgia factor it produced as both colorways were major hits with the Air Max 95. This upcoming colorway of the Air Max 24/7 isn't inspired by an OG colorway but from a recent release of the Air Max 95 that featured a similar white-to-black gradient on the upper with a translucent 'ice' sole, and given the popularity of that colorway, these should see no different fate. Featuring a pure white mudguard with a black mesh upper with hints of two different tones of the grey on the rear heel, this upcoming colorway isn't one of those pick-and-choose releases but one that we can all enjoy. Check out the detailed images after the jump and expect these to hit Nike Sportswear retailers this coming Spring 2011 season.

[10] Teenagers (Gerard)3 Reviews
"It's not Frank." I said, it sounded like he dropped the phone.
"H-hey Gerard." He said, trying to recover and failing.
"Benj had her baby a couple of hours ago." I mumbled, I looked up and Frank and he nodded.
"Sweet, is it cute?" He was dying to know, trying not to show it. I put him out of his misery.
"It's a Girl. Her names Lily. She looks just like you..." I said.
"So She's..." He started.
"Yeah. She's yours." I whispered. I told him where the hospital was and hung up. "Happy?" I looked up at Frank and he shrugged. I stood. "I'm getting out of here before he shows."
"No! Stay.." Benji looked at me. She was ordering, not asking. I sat.
About an hour later Mikey stood in the door way and Benji asked a nurse to go get the baby. Mikey sat in a chair as far away from me as he could get. I remembered what I had said to him last time "...You better hope on your life that kid's mine!..."
Mikey sat holding his daughter, smiling, I saw a tear roll down his cheek but ignored it. After about ten minutes, not even, I took back what should have been mine. Mikey looked like he wanted to stop me but he didn't make a move to. Benji glared at me, but I wasn't as forgiving as she was. She shouldn't be so forgiving. What the hell was wrong with her. After what he had done?
"You can leave now." I said, still not looking at Mikey.
"When can I see her again?" He asked, he sounded so pitiful.
"If I can help it...never." I threatened.
"You can't do that!" He stood, but he wouldn't touch me when I had Lily in my arms.
"What are you going to do? Take me to court...fight for the child that you stole from me?!" Lily started crying, Mikey looked stung, but he turned and left.
"That was uncalled for." Benji whispered. "You can't be mad forever."
"Watch me." I mumbled.
~Sixteen Years Later~
My Daughter is fifteen years old. She's beautiful, but every time I look into her eyes I see Mikey, and I miss him. Anger makes you do stupid things. Like isolate your brother from your life. I've spoken to him in passing, since Frank made me let him back into the band, but the bands been over for a few years, we've done side projects and were still around each other alot.
Sometimes I think that Lily knows, she was never told, but she confides more in Mikey, she never tells me anything. She tells him everything. She goes places with him. I hate it, but Benji threatened me in many creative ways until I gave in and let Mikey around her.
It was late and Mikey still hadn't brought her home, I stayed downstairs on the sofa, waiting. Benj had long since gone to bed. It was almost midnight when they came in. I waited till Lily was upstairs when I turned on him.
"What the hell? I told you, home by 11." I tried to keep my voice down, so far without much luck.
"Well, The movie ran late." He shrugged.
"My ass, you can forget about taking her anywhere for awhile."
"That's bullshit and you know it, you're just looking for a fucking reason! She's MY daughter, she fucking hates you!" He looked as if he regreted the last part.
"W-what? No she dosen't." I had to admit that the words had stung.
"She told me that you ignore her, you never try to talk to her."
"That's bullshit, she's always with you."
"Because I ask her to go places with me!" He was yelling at me now. Like I was making the mistakes, and I guess I was.
"Whatever, It dosen't matter, just go."
"No...look Gerard. She want's to come stay with me...."
"You told her didn't you? Why else would she ask?!"
"Look, she found out...Frank and I were talking..."
"GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY HOUSE!" I know I was getting out of control. I couldn't stop myself. I was pushing him out the door when I turned to see Lily and Benj behind me. Lily had a bag over her shoulder. "Where are you going?" I mumbled, I already knew.
"With my Dad." She mumbled, pushing past me. No one did anything to stop her. Not even me. I felt sick. I spent my whole life trying to keep her as far away from Mikey as possible, and now she was choosing him.
"Did he tell you what happened?" I mumbled weakly. It was cruel but it was the only way to make her stay.
"What do you mean?" She stopped in the door way.
"Don't-" Mikey was begging his eyes brimming with tears.
"Did he tell you what he did to your mother?" I said, more streangth to my voice.
"What is he talking about?" She turned to Mikey, who looked at me with more hate then I had ever seen in those eyes.
The minute I opened my mouth to say anything Mikey's fist connected with my jaw and I stumbled back. By the time I stood Benji had gotten between us and Lily looked so scared. Mikey looked at her, so sorry, torn, hurt. "Lily...It's hard to explain...I wanted to wait to tell you." He barely whispered.
"What did you do?" Her voice cracked and I saw tears fall down her pale cheeks.
"Lily, maybe we should just go, we'll talk when we get home." Mikey was doing anything to avoid the topic.
"He raped her." The words fell from my lips before I could stop myself. I saw Mikey break, and Lily ran.

SAN DIEGO (CBS 8) - With Thanksgiving just two days away, Larry Himmel has some thoughts on what the holiday really means. As usual, when Larry has something on his mind, it usually ends up in a rhyme.
It's easy these days
'Midst all this strife
To curse our fate
To bemoan our life.
And feel as if
We have no voice
With few options
And little choice.
Financially flailing
Our future fixed
A pawn in the game
Of partisan politics.
If life seems filled
With sorrow, not glee
Please take a minute
And just humor me.
If gloom and doom
Seem like our lot.
Just inventory
What you've got.
Be thankful for family
No if ands or buts
Although on Thursday
They will drive us nuts.
Your sister-in-law will start a fight
When she gets in the booze.
While your niece's new fiance
Is covered in tattoos.
Your uncle brings some woman
Who's only half his age.
His ex-wife throws a fit
And she leaves in a rage.
Your brother brings a box of wine
About two bucks it costs.
Meanwhile the Thanksgiving bird
Refuses to defrost.
Last year, your little sister
Claimed she was a Pagan.
This year, wants a special menu
Because now she is a vegan.
Grandma already asleep
And snoring in the chair.
Surrounded by a noxious odor
That's wafting through the air.
Someone let the dog out
And now he is a stray.
Who nipped the neighbor's kid
And they called the SPCA.
Meanwhile, Aunt Mimi's casserole
Smells like it spoiled
And Uncle Al's old pick up truck
Is in your driveway leaking oil.
Still there's a warm glow
Surrounded by those you love
Remembering the ones who came before
And now are up above.
Toasting all the memories
Retelling those old stories.
Lots of laughs and hugs
Recalling former glories.
Because these folks are family
To love them is no disgrace
And we'll do again next year
Just not at your place.
Happy Thanksgiving.
