How do I remove "SEO Powered by SEO Boost from PcDrome" which this plugin adds to the frontpage of my site? I know this is free software, but if every plugin where to add such information, things would get very messy :-)
How do I remove "SEO Powered by SEO Boost from PcDrome" which this plugin adds to the frontpage of my site? I know this is free software, but if every plugin where to add such information, things would get very messy :-)
Give Me Your Email ID.I Will Remove The Text[SEO Powered by SEO Boost from PcDrome] And Then will Send You The Plugin Download Link.
What needs to be done is to make the footer text optional, with a checkbox, as it's done with the Platinum SEO plugin. This is a non-starter for me, and I won't use your plugin unless there's a version without this feature.
You can contact me with the info directly as follows:
Go to http://www.macnightowl.com
Click Contact Us and send me your email and other details.
Thank you.
I hear a deafening silence. :(
When Gene Steinberg tells you to do it, you listen.
(Have the RSS feed for your site man)
Nonetheless, I agree. Even though the plug-ins are free there needs to be an option to disable things like this. PodPress has a problem with things like this, and AdRotate has that annoying little dot next to the ads that is bad.
I have no problem pimping your plug-ins, and am in the process of creating a plug-in directory on my sites to list them if people wish to know what plug-ins I use. I just don't want them to be front and center in my content. I did not create my site to pimp your stuff, I created it to pimp my stuff.
I am sure some will take that as harsh and self-centered, but it is the truth. We all create our sites to pimp our stuff not other people's stuff. If we want to pimp your stuff we will do it, but give us the option.
As it is, I can remove these things myself by modding the code. It isn't a problem for me, but as Gene stated a checkbox would be sufficient.
My other issue is the one of non-response. Too many plugin authors ignore posts or emails containing constructive criticism or simple questions about how their product is used. One author wrote me back, after I sent two unanswered emails and made several posts, reminding me that I wasn't hiring him for paid work.
The point being that if one wants to enter the open source sandbox, don't expect to get rich from donations. If a plugin author can't provide even basic support, surely there's something else they can do to spend their free time aside from writing plugins and ignoring the users of those plugins.
You can edit the footer.
By .. Natural SEO
You should try editing the footer like that. It is really not too hard. Sincerely, PPC Management Service
Yes I agree with genesteinberg that an option should be thr in the admin to check and uncheck, that will be easier for lot of people wishing to remove the credit line.. Latur

I have to admit Winter Park was a pretty major let down for me. The entire mountain consists of moguls and run-outs. Even a skier would probably get sick of doing just moguls all day. I enjoy them from time to time, but you would constantly run into long stretches of them with no warning. And like I said previously, the run-outs are murder. Sometimes you see more people un-strapped and walking then on the boards riding. It was pretty frustrating at times. The snow was poor even after they got a fresh blanket the night before. I enjoy difficult tree runs and steeps, and that was almost non-existent. you go into the trees thinking you are on some sort of path and end up in a dead end of downed trees and brush. I have a pretty good GoPro video of me plowing into a tree face first because of this. there is no terrain park to speak of. i enjoy park, but didn't hit one rail or jump the entire time I was there. It was also ridiculously cold most of the time. and that is coming from someone who usually can't wear his coat cause he ends up sweating on the mountain. take your gloves off for 30 seconds and you won't feel them again till you go inside. The nightlife in this place is also non-existent. I mean terrible. As in walk into a bar and be the only one there and fear for your life kind of terrible. I spent four days here and then got a hotel for one night in Breckenridge, and it was night and day. Finally got to do some real riding and go to some real bars and restaurants. Lines at the lift in WP/MJ are just as bad as the good places, and half the lifts close randomly nearing the end of the day making it take about 5 runs just to get down to the lodge to leave. I am usually the type to only leave positive reviews as I find the negative ones generally unproductive, but I felt obligated to warn people. If you are unlucky enough to find yourself here, get as far mountain left (skier right) as possible and stay there. Or even better just don't find yourself there.

(1) New York Rangers vs. (8) Ottawa Senators
The Senators got the Rangers instead of the Bruins on the last day of the season, but will they be able to upset the top seed in the East? As surprising as this young team has been (ESPN ranked them last in the preseason rankings), they don't have enough to beat Henrik Lundqvist and the rest of a deep New York squad. Don't it expect it to be too short, though, the Sens will put up a fight.
(2) Boston Bruins vs. (7) Washington Capitals
The Capitals have come on strong during the latter part of the season, but find themselves in an unfamiliar position: Not in the top 3 as a division winner. They draw the defending Stanley Cup champs, who boast an always strong and hard-hitting defense and a truckload of 20-goal-scorers. I don't think the Caps can handle the Bruins and they will finish what has been a disappointing season early, especially if third-string goalie Braden Holtby has to start the majority of the series.
(3) Florida Panthers vs. (6) New Jersey Devils
It's rare that picking the higher seed would be mean picking the underdog, but not many are giving Florida the credit they deserve after a season with 18 past-regulation losses. Still, Ilya Kovalchuk hasn't been good in the few playoff games he's played, and the Devils desperately need their top goal scorer to show up. I give the edge to the Panthers, a team almost completely created through free agent signings, in a long series.
(4) Pittsburgh Penguins vs. (5) Philadelphia Flyers
These bitter rivals played twice in the last week of the season and are poised for a classic playoff series. The Flyers' fate hinges on the play of Ilya Bryzgalov, who was lackluster in two playoff series losses with Phoenix. Philly can keep up with the Pens high-powered scoring attack, but I just don't see them beating what may be the deepest team in the league. Make sure you watch this one, though; there will be plenty of fireworks.
(1) Vancouver Canucks vs. (8) Los Angeles Kings
Once again, the Canucks find themselves Presidents Trophy winners as the teams with the most points in the league, but will it mean another Stanley Cup run? They fell short against the Bruins last year, but don't expect the Kings to quite deter this year's quest for the western favorites. Although Daniel Sedin remains questionable with a concussion, I can't see the Kings streaky offense matching the Canucks pace. If Jonathan Quick is as fantastic as he has been all year, then LA has a small chance.
(2) St. Louis Blues vs. (7) San Jose Sharks
It's surprising to not see the Sharks win the Pacific; many had high hopes for the team led by Joe Thornton and Patrick Marleau this year after they reached the conference finals last year. The Blues are a surprise too, but in the opposite way; their strong goaltending and stingy defense almost got them a 1 seed after missing the playoffs last season. Be on the lookout for an upset here. The Blues faltered slightly down the stretch, and part of their goaltending tandem, Brian Elliott, has a "day-to-day" injury. It'll be interesting to see if he looks off because of it, but I'm going to go with the upset.
(3) Phoenix Coyotes vs. (6) Chicago Blackhawks
It's so hard for me to even pick this game, because I want the Coyotes to win so, so bad. Still, in an attempt to look at the game with an unbiased eye, it's clear to all that Chicago has the higher powered offense, but Phoenix counters with a strong, deep defense and athletic goalie Mike Smith. This series is somewhat of a toss-up; I think that if the Coyotes get secondary scoring behind Vrbata and Whitney, they have a good chance here. But, if Blackhawks captain Jonathan Toews returns from a concussion in prime form, he may be able to will Chicago to a series win.
(4) Nashville Predators vs. (5) Detroit Red Wings
Intriguing match-up here, both teams are very talented and it will be a shame to see one of them go home early. Wings goalie Jimmy Howard has been slowed by injuries lately, thus the Preds have the dominant netminder in Pekka Rinne. You know that Detroit's big star will show up in the clutch, so it is up to Nashville's scoring to step up; they need a big series from Fisher, Legwand, and Erat to counter the potent Datsyuk and Zetterberg combination. I see the Predators star-studded defense being the series-changer here; they overcome the aging Detroit core in a long series.

Used 2007 Jaguar Sedan Values
Since the foundation of the Jaguar luxury marque, there have been a number of high-quality sedans (identified as saloons in the United Kingdom). In 1968, Jaguar introduced the XJ sedan series. The XJ6 (originally signifying the use of a six-cylinder engine) and later a twelve-cylinder powered XJ12. The XJ12 was eventually discontinued while the XJ series gained eight-cylinder engine power in the late 1990s. Over the decades, the Jaguar XJ construction underwent modernization including the adoption of an all-aluminum body in 2003. The flagship sedan of the current Jaguar brand, the XJ employs a boldly contemporary style. In addition to the XJ, Jaguar serves the luxury sedan segment with the XF as well as the recently introduced XE premium compact. Conforming to 21st century luxury tastes, all-wheel drive and InControl Touch system is found on current Jaguar models.Read more Read less

Chewy, chunky recipes to satisfy your sweet tooth -- without extra sugar!
Who doesn't love cookies and brownies, the ultimate comfort foods? Here is a recipe for a to-die-for brownie and a chewy oatmeal cookie (which also happens to have some healthy fiber), both using the new Hershey's Sugar-Free chocolate.
Even with lower-sugar treats, it's important not to go overboard on portion sizes. But these are so tasty that you should find a small portion very satisfying.
Oatmeal-Chocolate Chunk Cookies
Journal as: 1/2 serving of a small muffin or 2 pieces of cookie
These cookies have just enough chocolate to satisfy your sweet tooth but with less sugar and fat. These cookies also pack a punch of fiber, thanks to the oats and whole wheat flour.
5 tablespoons no-trans margarine (with around 8 grams of fat per tablespoon)
3 tablespoons light or fat free cream cheese
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
1/3 cup Splenda
1/4 cup egg substitute (1 large egg can be substituted)
6 tablespoons whole wheat flour (1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons)
6 tablespoons white flour (1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons)
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3/4 cup coarsely chopped Hershey's Sugar Free Dark Chocolate Candy (mini bars) or Chocolate Candy (mini bars)*
1 cup quick-cooking oats
- Preheat oven to 375-degrees. Coat cookie sheets with canola cooking spray.
- In mixing bowl, cream together no-trans margarine, cream cheese, brown sugar and Splenda. Add egg substitute or egg and beat well.
- Add flours, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and vanilla to butter mixture and beat until well blended. Stir in sugar free chocolate chunks and oats. Blend thoroughly.
- Drop rounded teaspoons of dough onto cookie sheet (about 15 cookies per cookie sheet). Bake in center of oven for about 6 minutes or until cookies are still soft but lightly browned. Remove cookies and let cool on wire rack.

I'm looking for some plugin which will allow me to update my blog (I am using it for live updates for certain events) as you would expect meta-refresh is not good for my server especially with a few hundred people using it at once.
So my question is, is their plugin that will allow me to update my blog without using meta-refresh?
I was thinking along the lines of using AJAX?
Any help would be much appreciated.

Daisy Fay and the Miracle Man (Paperback)
Special Order
In Fannie Flagg's high-spirited first novel, we meet Daisy Fay Harper in the spring of 1952, where she's not doing much except sitting around waiting for the sixth grade. When she leaves Shell Beach, Mississippi, in September 1959, she is packed up and ready for the Miss America Pageant, vowing I won t come back until I m somebody. But in our hearts she already is.
Sassy and irreverent from the get-go, Daisy Fay takes us on a rollicking journey through her formative years on the Gulf Coast of Mississippi. There, at The End of the Road of the South, the family malt shop freezer holds unspeakable things, society maven Mrs. Dot hosts Junior Debutante meetings and shares inspired thoughts for the week (such as sincerity is as valuable as radium ), and Daisy Fay's Daddy hatches a quick-cash scheme that involves resurrecting his daughter from the dead in a carefully orchestrated miracle. Along the way, Daisy Fay does a lot of growing up, emerging as one of the most hilarious, appealing, and prized characters in modern fiction.
About the Author
FANNIE FLAGG's writing career began behind the scenes of television's "Candid Camera" and progressed to out-in-front as performer-writer. Her acting achievements led to roles in motion pictures including "Five Easy Pieces," with Jack Nicholson; "Stay Hungry," with Jeff Bridges and Sally Field; and, most recently, "Crazy in Alabama," with Melanie Griffith. For the theater in New York she did "Patio Porch "and "Come Back to the Five and Dime, Jimmy Dean, Jimmy Dean," and played the lead role in the Broadway musical "The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas,"
Her first novel, "Daisy Fay and the Miracle Man," was on the "New York Times "bestseller list for ten weeks. Her second, "Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe," praised by Harper Lee and Eudora Welty, was on the "Times" list for thirty-six weeks. It was made into the memorable hit movie "Fried Green Tomatoes," starring Jessica Tandy and Kathy Bates. The screenplay, also written by Flagg, earned her the coveted Scripters Award and was nominated for an Academy Award and the Writers Guild of America Screen Award. Her reading of the Random House audiobook received a Grammy nomination.
That book gave way to an even bigger hardcover success for "Welcome to the World, Baby Girl!, "a "New York Times "Notable Book of the Year, which "The Christian Science Monitor "called "captivating . . . a comic novel to open with open arms." Flagg lives in California and in Alabama.
Praise For…
"A hilarious, endearing novel."

I am looking for a way for employees to send me an email or add information to a spreadsheet that will then add tasks to my task list. Ideally, the script would capture the task list, task, due date, and any notes.
I have already successfully implemented five scripts (five task lists) that allow my employees to add tasks to specific tasklists, following this script shown below. This works OK but does not have the capacity to add due dates or notes:
Automated email to task list API
I recently came across references to scripts that monitors task lists, and then posts them to a spread sheet, including task, due dates, notes, etc. It strikes me that a spreadsheet might be a better way to do this though it does not have the convenience of email:
I wonder if the REVERSE can be done. I envision a spreadsheet that I could give my employees access to, with two worksheets (NEW and PROCESSED) with columns:
and the script would run through this every hour or two. Anything in NEW would be processed and added to my task list, then moved to the end of PROCESSED.
Does anyone know of something like that out there? Alternatively, perhaps there are ways to change the email script so that it moves anything in the body of the email into the NOTES section of the task. I am a raw newbie at this BTW. Thanks.

Tulsa's Incredible Pizza Company
People wage wars at America's Incredible Pizza Company—against other drivers on the go-kart track, golfers on the glow-in-the-dark mini-golf course, and the limits of their own stomachs at the buffet. The funporium's buffet—featuring more than 100 items—centers on pizza, including original, thin, and deep-pan crust (gluten-free upon request) crowned with more than 30 toppings. Verdant greens and freshly made dressings await visitors at the popular salad bar, and the baked-potato station comes with every necessity for side-dish construction, from cheese to the bacon bits from which bacon is built. A variety of sauces enliven the buffet's fettuccine and spaghetti noodles, and homestyle eats on offer include hot dogs and frito pie.
In the indoor adventure park, meanwhile, gamers zip around a track in two varieties of go-karts—the stock-car speed and the slower Busch speed—as announcers report each turn. Visitors also can instigate harmless car crashes in the bumper-car area.

We wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed our second Matterhorn trip. The reason we returned to the Alps with AAI was because we think so highly of Jonathon Spitzer, Lee Lazzara and the rest of the team. We know Jonathon works hard behind the scenes to ensure that the trips are executed flawlessly. We want to make sure he knows that his attention to detail doesn't go unnoticed. Even when things didn't go as planned last year because of weather, Jonathon showed grace under fire. Jonathon and Lee lived up to their reputations again this year. As always, they were safe, professional, knowledgeable and patient. Because of these qualities, we will continue to book trips through AAI with this team of guides. We plan on signing up for another trip as soon as your 2016 schedule opens. Jonathan and Lee are wonderful assets to your organization. - 2015 climber
• World-renowned iconic peak
• We provide an all-inclusive trip (hotels, trams, lifts, etc.), making our prices highly competitive
• Includes four nights in Swiss/Italian huts with breakfast and dinner
• Includes Eight tram/lifts, and local train fees in Switzerland
• Pre-climb training on two peaks over 4,000m and two days of rock climbing training.
• Fully certified IFMGA mountain guides
• All hotels included during the trip (five nights of lodging in downtown Zermatt)
• 1:1 climber-to-guide ratio on Matterhorn portion
• Ten-day program
• Alpine Ascents logo item
The Matterhorn is a technical alpine rock and snow/ice climb. This climb requires climbers to have previous experience rock climbing (5.7 grade) in boots and being comfortable climbing on steep firm snow and ice. Along with the technical level, summit day on the Matterhorn is an extremely physical day requiring climbers to be in excellent physical condition. Prior climbs like, Rainier, Denali, and the Ecuador Volcanoes are good experience for the snow and ice portions. Climbers will also need to have Alpine Rock experience to be accepted to this program. We offer a Matterhorn Prep Rock Course.
As the most recognized mountain on the European continent, the roughly chiseled rock pyramid of the Matterhorn serves as a defining geographical landmark. With a near perfect pyramid, its absolute symmetry demarcates the exquisite nature of this beautiful mountain. Nestled in the Swiss Alps, birthplace of climbing, an ascent of the Matterhorn hearkens back to the purist traditions of climbing. The Matterhorn, which stands over the town of Zermatt, is nearly steeple-like in both structure and magnetism. The region nearby is comprised of lush meadows and pristine landscapes. The combination of scenic beauty, superb lodging and the ability to challenge oneself by day and live in luxury by night, makes climbing in Switzerland a rather comfortable alpine experience.
In preparation for the ascent of the Matterhorn we do four days of prior climbing to help review skills, and acclimate. Climbing both the Polux and Breithorn and excellent challenging 4000m peaks that tower above Zermatt. The two days of rock climbing help climbers gain the last minute skills and knowledge before climbing the Matterhorn.
This unique opportunity to climb in one of the most famous climbing regions in the world is unrivaled in excellence and quality. Climbs in previous years have enjoyed 100% summit success. 2015 had great success with 9 out of 11 climbers reaching the summit.
Lodged in the Pennine Alps along the Swiss-Italian border, the Matterhorn's history dates back to the Whymper team ascent in 1865. The climbing accomplishments continue into modern day with such achievements as Swiss Guides Arnold and Graven completing two complete traverses, covering all four ridges in 19½ hours. In 1995, B. Brunod set the record for the fastest ascent reaching the summit in 2 hours, 12 minutes and 29 seconds from the village of Cervinia. Other notable ascents include the first woman, Lucy Walker (British) in 1871, first ascent of the North Face in by F. and T. Schmid in 1931 and W. Bonatti's a solo winter ascent on a new direct route of the North Face in 1965.
I can't say enough good things about this trip and the guides. Just when I think climbing with Alpine Ascents can't get better, it does. This was the trip of a lifetime. Words cannot describe the quality of this trip. It far exceeded any expectations I could have even put on it. It was the most amazing experience of my life. The quality of the trip was due 100% to the guides who led it and I could never say enough about them or thank them enough for all the effort they put into it. - 2015 climber
Climbing Skill Level
This is an extremely demanding climb and we require climbers to have prior experience before joining this program. Our success over the years on the Matterhorn has been with climbers that generally have taken and successfully completed a Matterhorn Prep program, or equivalent experience. Climbers must be able to climb up to 5.7 in boots and be in excellent fitness as summit day is over 4,000ft of technical climbing. If you are interested in joining our Matterhorn program, please contact us with a climbing résume. If you can't successfully and safely complete the first 4 days on the Matterhorn program, you maybe be asked join a guide on another peak for summit or further skills development.
Physical Conditioning
In the best interest of personal safety, success and team compatibility, adequate training and excellent physical condition is required. Climbers need to be in excellent physical condition for both personal enjoyment and to be an integral team member. We encourage you to contact us so that we may assist you in developing a training program that meets your particular needs. Comprehensive training information can be found here.
Environmental Responsibility
Alpine Ascents is deeply committed to maintaining ecosystems at home and around the world. With each expedition, trek and course, we not only attempt to leave the environment as we found it, but strive to assist the local population in protecting the land and people indigenous to that region. Alpine Ascents reaches for the highest ethical business practices at home and abroad. Each staff member is dedicated to environmentally sound alpine ascents.
At Alpine Ascents environmental stewardship remains one of our core values and we take Leave No Trace ethics and practices very seriously. The mountains are our home and we are unwilling to sacrifice their preservation for human objectives. On every one of our courses and climbs we teach and follow the environmentally appropriate Leave No Trace principles and practices.
Over the years, with the assistance of our Sherpa teams, we have stepped up efforts to clean Mt. Everest. Our Wag Bag® program made a pioneering step in human waste management for the National Park System and Forest Service in the North Cascades. On Aconcagua, we pioneered a waste removal system on our climbs, utilizing the WAG Bag® system. And we continue our on-going maintenance and minimal impact plans wherever we guide. We believe that given the proper information most people will do all they can to help protect and maintain the environment. Alpine Ascents is committed to developing safe, self-reliant and environmentally conscious mountaineers.
Private Groups
We regularly organize private climbs for individuals, corporate groups, families and friends. We encourage you to book these climbs early as we are often able to cater these climbs to group-specific desires. Please contact our office to further discuss the benefits of private courses.

Despite the growing knowledge of posttraumatic growth, only a few studies have examined personal growth in the context of cardiac health. Similarly, longitudinal research is lacking on the implications of religion/spirituality for patients with advanced cardiac diseases. This paper aims to explore the effect of preoperative religious coping on long-term postoperative personal growth and potential mediation in this effect. Analyses capitalized on a preoperative survey and medical indices from the Society of Thoracic Surgeons' National Database of patients undergoing cardiac surgery. Participants in the current follow-up study completed a mailed survey 30 months after surgery. Hierarchical regression analysis was performed to evaluate the extent to which preoperative use of religious coping predicted growth at follow-up, after controlling for key demographics, medical indices, mental health, and protective factors. Predictors of posttraumatic growth at follow-up were positive religious coping and a living status without a partner. Medical indices, optimistic expectations, social support, and other religious factors were unrelated to posttraumatic growth. Including religious factors diminished effects of gender, age, and race. Including perceived spiritual support completely eliminated the role of positive religious coping, indicating mediation. Preoperative positive religious coping may have a long-term effect on postoperative personal growth, explainable by higher spiritual connections as a part of significance-making. These results suggest that spirituality may play a favorable role in cardiac patients' posttraumatic growth after surviving a life-altering operation. The elimination of demographic effects may help explain previously mixed findings concerning the association between these factors and personal growth.

Captain Falcon
Ledare: MadMalakian

Skapad den: 31 jan 2010

For all the fans of the sweetest, manliest, and most bad-ass character ever created in a video game.
Please note that all that's written below is for satyrical purpose. After all, Captain Falcon is the Chuck Norris of video games...
Something about Captain Falcon from the greatest Falcon player in Super Smash Bros. Melee out there: G-Regulate.
Falcon is the sweetest character, and here are some non-opinionated, fool-proof reasons why.
1. He's ripped, completely muscle bound from head to toe. His pectorals are so defined that his nipples have enough muscle to poke out of his racing suit. Probably the greatest athelete ive ever seen.
2. He is 100% testosterone. His speech is more like grunting, due to his primal manhood. He pays no mind to women and children when wreaking havoc upon anyone/anything.
3. He never relaxes, he is flexing his muscles at nearly every moment, as he has a sure-limitless supply of energy.
4. One of his winning poses, shows him lifting his leg up and waving his crotch in your face, as if to say "suck a ****, loser"
5. His style is the loose-combination of the following bad-*****. Robocop, Judge Dredd, Captain America, Batman, and perhaps "the Narcissist" Lex Luger... Only C. Falcon lacks the weaknesses that these people have, such as "feelings" and "restraint to kill"
6. If you pause the game while he is in the middle of a down-aerial, you will notice he will be staring right into your eyes, letting you know that no one, not even you, is safe.....
7. I've never seen his *****, but by estimation I'm guessing it's around the size of Wilt Chaimberlain.
8. Due to poor video game design on nintendo's part, he is easily combo'd by nearly every character, yet while played correctly, can still rock every character in the nastiest fashion possible.

Is the following code acceptable. That is, is this the right way to do a malloc?
This is the minimal code that I could get to work for my situation. I think it's 'the right way to do it' but I am super-new to C and don't have much of a clue overall. I read several related SO posts but none seem to exactly match this situation. Comments?
#include <stdio.h>
// example of calling a function that creates a dynamically sized array and
// returns it to a caller that doesn't know or care about the size of the array
char* return_char_array(){
// for the sake of the example, we determined the size to be 100
char *f=malloc(100*sizeof(char));
// stick something in the first couple of elements for test purposes
return f;
int main(){
// we want this function to remain ignorant of the size or other workings
// of the array, so, no '[]' or 'malloc'
char *wipc = return_char_array();
// well i guess it cares a little, because we assume there are at least 2 elements...
return 0;

Can I start the hand wringing...???
Oh Dan how could you! These poor little babies!! How does this help anyone? This is gratuitous. This is dirty bad and wrong. Oh Goddess...the children...the children...think about the children......***sooooobbbbbb*****
Yes, think about the children. The children of same sex families in Ohio (for example) that are shit on routinely by straight, morally superior liars that play footsie in the bathroom.
Thank you again, Dan. Someday the MSM will do a story about the way same sex families are expected to uphold a higher moral standard than heteros and it will be because someone (like you) wasn't afraid to make connections like these.
Hey now, these boys are learning to drive at a young age so than can grow up to be manly; they'll not be sissy, soft, faggoty faggots who can't butch it up enough to drive their deadbeat parents around when they're on a drinking binge. They'll totally be straight when they grow up. Which is the only thing that matters, really...that is, if they live past 12.
I'm horny.
did anyone die?
then who fucking cares?
the dad was actually taking the most responsible route to getting his kid home safely. why does fairbanks even have a 1-way street?
Thank you Mr. Savage for reaffirming my faith in the intelligence of the average american voter...
BTW, 'Mr. Poe' - I'm thirsty.
(and no, that's not a signal for gay sex - I'm not GAY!)

Take a fucking taxi
Maybe one of them were the ones who hit my Jeep last night and didn't leave a fucking note.
Mmm. Percoset.
I know this won't be popular, and I know that no one will believe me that I support the right of every couple to marry, but this is a bit ridiculous. I'm sure you could also find gay couples with kids who probably shouldn't be raising kids. That doesn't really answer the question of whether there is an ideal situation for kids to be raised--it just puts front and center that a kid is better off with two responsible dads than his or her biological parents if the parents are irresponsible.
I'll say it: every kid deserves to be raised by his biological parents and to have responsible parents.
I guess where that's not possible because the parents can't get along, one has died, the parents have abandoned the kid, etc., two responsible parents (adoptive, step) are better than none or one.
I just don't think you win any the marriage debate with this argument--and you don't need to because gay marriage should still be lawful even if all hetero couples start being responsible.
OK, so that post above didn't make any sense. I was talking about adoption by gay couples. So substitute "adoption" for "marriage."
Regarding the first article, I was born/raised in small town Alaska and started driving to the neighbourhood store when I was 10.
I do agree that letting your 11 year old drive because you are too drunk is indeed bad parenting, but in Alaska, its not uncommon for "children" to drive in rural areas. Hell, I had my first quad runner and snowmobile when I was 5 freakin years old.
mother's little helper, indeed.
@9: You're forgetting something- it's a lot harder for a gay couple to adopt a child, since background checks and behavioral evaluations are pretty standard.
Biological parents can squirt out a little tyke in between swigs of Jim Bean and fist-fulls of perkies.
I for one heartily support the Designated Toddler program.
Wait, how do we know that neither of these parents are gay, which seems to be everyone's assumption? There is nothing in there that says they are straight parents? If they are gay parents, will you feel dumb for posting this?
@11 - I was about to post something similar as a sort-of-joke, and then I read your actual first-hand account.
Now, Percocet-mama with the 5 year old? THAT's fuckin crazy!
I'm confused. Does she take Percocet to help her deal with the kids when they're wild or does she give Percocet to the kids?
Twee @ 15 makes a very astute observation, Dan. Worth considering for future ECDAMAF features.
While I agree with your sentiment, you and I need to agree on mutually distinguishable Slog monikers.
It's interesting how even someone who is a gay parents, like Dan Savage, reads the terms "mother" or "father" in a news story and automatically assumes that that means it's a straight, biological parent. Are you not the father of your child? Do you think there should be a different term than simply "father" in the news reports when referring to a gay father, just so everybody knows?
@17, giving percocet to children would be irresponsible, obvi.
You need to take your Percocet proactively. If you wait until the kids go wild, it's too late.
@17: From what I read, I think she takes the Percs herself when the kids are wild. She's an idiot-- if you're going to resort to drug-taking when your kids are acting up, give the kids Benadryl, wait 45 minutes for them to crash, THEN you take the Percoset. Then you spend the afternoon staring into space and happy.
A "father and a mother?" I knew you hated straight parents, but now you hate single moms too?
Having lived in Fairbanks most of my life, I wonder where the kid was while dad was getting loaded. I used to sit in the Comet club and read danielle steele books while they drank, but they never made me drive home..

Clairvoyant Psychic Readings
What are clairvoyant readings?Tarot cards hold the potential for a lot of potent symbolic imagery and clairvoyants often use these pictures to better focus their thoughts on the problems of their clients in order to some up with solutions. Clairvoyance means 'clear seeing' and psychics are gifted with this ability to see things residing in a spiritual plane which are otherwise hidden. Clairvoyants can be remote viewers, which mean that they can see visions things happening in the present which can be useful in locating people or objects in the present. Other can be more sensitive to receiving spiritual information. They may be able to detect spiritual energies and auras surrounding people and objects, and are thus able to see any barriers or blocks that people may be facing.
First and foremost, as in attending any psychic reading, you should come prepared with a set of questions beforehand that you want to ask your clairvoyant. Knowing what you want to get from the reading is important so be sure to have clear questions in mind. Your clairvoyant will usually prefer that you ask more general questions to begin with so that you can slowly narrow the focus of your questions. At the beginning of the session, the clairvoyant will typically discuss more general topics such as family, health, romance etc. and then move on to the more specific issues. Do not be afraid to ask questions and advice targeted towards angels, spirit guides and even departed family members. Feel free to talk about or ask anything you wish as your psychic professional values discretion and confidence, and will never use any of the information you freely give out. Be prepared for events in which you may not get the answer which you were expecting or do not get an answer at all. There are many variables involved in clairvoyant reading and if your psychic is feeling stressed or is ill, they may not be able to access information as efficiently. Some information is also impossible to obtain and is not knowable, so questions aimed at getting this type of information may be fruitless. It may also be useful to take notes as your psychic talks for later reflection.
Clairvoyant readings are unique in that they are ideal for covering a wide range of topics from love, past relationships, career, finances, your life path, and the past, present and future. However, do be warned that clairvoyant readings involve the absolute honest truth which not everyone may want hear, accept in a constructive manner or be able to deal with in a positive way. While your psychic adviser will tell you these truths about yourself in a supportive way and with the intent of guiding you, it is the truth which will be told just as it is. If you think you cannot deal with this type of reading, an angel reading which is more nurturing would be a better option for you. However, if you think you need some uncensored truth and straight talk in your life so you can make the changes you need to make in your life, a clairvoyant reading is suitable for you.What are the benefits of a clairvoyant reading?
Getting a clairvoyant reading can be a very fulfilling and enlightening experience, and you can get a lot of information about your life which may have escaped you due to the demands of your daily life. Clairvoyants are often more sensitive than an average person because of the gifts that they were born with and also because they have had the opportunity and time to hone their skills. Although some of the things that your clairvoyant may tell you during a reading may not make sense immediately, keep an open mind because the true meaning may only occur to you later in the context of some event or new development. You can also draw on what the clairvoyant observes to make your own deductions and increase your sensitivity to the world around you.
How to Give Past Life Readings…and Maintain Your Credibility!
Yes, you can learn to give past life readings and keep your reputation intact! Why is it that people's past lives often sound so ridiculous and lack all credibility? You might have heard people talk about their past life as a mighty General who led the troops to victory, or living as Cleopatra in a more distant past life.
These tall stories are usually as ridiculous as they sound, but there is a way to give accurate past life readings and come to learn about your own past lives and those of others you meet.
Past lives are entirely real and we have all had several past lives at the very least. Sometimes we even bring over cell memory from a past life and remember minute details about experiences we have had before we incarnated into this life.
To discover your past lives and give past life readings, practise the following exercise by yourself and then with other people, aiming to be open to every psychic impression you receive.
How to Give Past Life Readings
1. Become comfortable and remove yourself from all distractions. Light a candle or some incense if it helps you to relax and make these spiritual exercises even more enjoyable.
2. Close your eyes and begin to focus on your breathing, following the path of each deep inhalation and exhalation. If any other thoughts arise in your mind, let them pass and return your attention to your breathing.
3. After 2-3 minutes of deeper breathing and relaxation, ask to be surrounded by a protective bubble of white light. Visualise yourself in this white bubble, safe and protected and ready to explore your past lives.
4. With your eyes still closed, take your attention to your third eye, the area between your eyebrows. Continue to breathe more deeply than you normally do.
5. Next, ask to be shown images from your most recent past life. You might see a uniform to reveal who you were. Begin to mentally ask questions while maintaining your focus on your third eye, sensitive to all thoughts and images that come to you after you have asked questions about your most recent past life. Say to yourself:
In my most recent past life:
Who was I?
Was I male or female?
Was I tall or short?
Was I old or young when I passed away?
When and where did I live?
What sort of work did I do?
What lessons did I learn in that life?
In fact, ask your higher self any questions which are of interest to you about this past life.
After you have mentally asked a question, allow all the following impressions to gently wash over you. You might feel suddenly taller or shorter, or wiser or completely different to how you normally feel today. You may have a strong sense of what you did for a living in your most recent past life. Go with the flow of these impressions and when the information and pictures in your head slow down, ask another question.
6. When you have sufficiently explored your most recent past life, continue in the same way to explore the past life before that one. Mentally say to yourself I am now ready to rediscover the life previous to the one I have just been exploring and then ask the above questions again to explore your second most recent past life.
7. When you have finished exploring your past lives for this session bring some movement back into your hands, feet and face, waking up your body and return your awareness to the room you are in.
When giving past life readings for another person, simply enter again into your relaxed, meditational state of mind but this time ask to be shown images which reveal your client or friends's most recent past life. Ask questions in the same manner as before to explore their most recent past lives.
The more you practise this exercise, the more details you will discover about the past lives of yourself and others.
Some advantages of exploring your past lives are to understand any themes you share from your past incarnations with this life (such as being a 'rescuer' of others), or to discover how you got that birth mark on your body (birth marks are often an imprint of something that happened to you in a past life).
So have fun exploring your past lives and remember to run with every impression you get without censoring the information that comes to you during your past life meditations.

How to Read Tarot Cards The Major Arcana
This is your introduction on how to read tarot cards. It covers the meanings of each of the cards making up the Major Arcana. The interpretations are based on the Rider Waite Tarot but also include relevant comments from other packs and commentators. The comments in blue are mine and from time to time I will expand on them. Each card tells a story, and it for you to build your own story lines using the explanations as a guide. After all it should be your own story line that matters. Coming up next is our guide for finding psychic mediums near me, which we ended up publishing over at www.mypsychicreadings.com.
The figure represented on each major arcana card during a reading can either be representing your subject themselves or someone influencing your subject. This will of course depend upon the context in which the card has been drawn.
How to Read Tarot Cards
The Fool :
Symbols – Colorful clothing and carrying all his possessions and accompanied by a dog and carrying a flower, the fool or Jester is a traveler who is free to make his own choices.
On his shoulder he carries a staff to which is tied a bundle of previous experiences.
He is off to see the world, but knows not where.
Meaning – The Fool is seen to express innocence and optimism with scant regard for the present or for consequences.
Denotes positive inner forces which may influence an individual in their choices.
Reverse : Warns that the choice made is likely to be foolish.
If seen to be significant, the flower can be a reminder to stop and smell the flowers along the journey, and to be aware of the ramifications of his decisions, ie. look before you leap.
The Magician :
Symbols – Male figure, the the infinity symbol over the figures head, a small wand, a table on which are a chalice, a pentacle, a staff (wand) and a sword, that is, all the suites (elements) of the tarot.
Meaning – The Magician represents the ability to translate ideas into action, to use skills, both practical, interpersonal and psychic to advantage.
In short, it is a card of self-confidence.
Reverse : Warns that the use of power or skills for destructive ends will attract bad luck.
Often I see this card as a reminder to the subject that they have the skills and abilities they need, so the time has come to put plans into action.
The High Priestess :
Symbols – Wise woman enthroned, the moon, two pillars, two flowers, thoughtful contemplation.
Meaning – The High Priestess represents the spiritual feminine principles of knowingness, love and relationships. Wisdom, sound judgment, serenity, common sense and intuition.
Reverse : Indicates superficial qualities, ignorance, shortsightedness and selfishness. Poor judgment.
The High Priestess is the wise woman of long ago in whom insight and understanding of the world resided. In ancient times she was embodied as Isis – the universal mother.
The Empress :
Symbols – A gown decorated with pomegranates, a crown of stars, a rod, (the scepter of authority), a heart-shaped shield with the symbol for Venus, a field of ripe grain or fruit.
Meaning -The Empress represents fertility of both body and mind, a bountiful harvest and good luck.
Reverse : Indicates lack of interest, inaction, indecision, possessiveness, jealousy, disruption.
The Empress is a creator, whether it is creation of life, of romance, of art or business. This card can represent the gestation of an idea or the bringing to reality of a project by fostering and nurturing it.
The Emperor :
Symbols – Throne, ram's heads, orb and scepter.
Meaning – Authority, control, confidence, accomplishment. One who is master of his emotions, who is able to realize his ideas.
Reverse – Immaturity, tendency to be gullible, weakness of character.
This is the guy in charge! The emperor represents the authority to make things happen. Take control of your affairs.
The Hierophant
Symbols – Triple crown, Twin pillars, 3 tiered staff, throne, hand raised in blessing, two acolytes, two crossed keys).
Meaning – Papal figure who holds the keys to the kingdom. The hierophant counsels rising above worldly concerns to release creative powers through the divine.
Reverse – Foolish over-generosity, vulnerability, openness to new ideas.
In order to move forward one must overcome or put aside fears or stubbornness and see the larger picture. Stop putting things off!
The Lovers :
Symbols – Male and Female figures, in the deck shown it is the classic Adam and Eve.
Meaning – This card can refer to marrage and friendship, but has a wider meaning of the necessity of choice, which means responsibility. When all is in balance it reflects beauty and inner harmony.
Reverse – Quarrels, separation, frustration,
Trust you instincts, to choose this challenge, person, or career path. Decide and go for it!
The Chariot :
Symbols – A crowned conquerer rides in a chariot drawn by two sphinxes/lions/horses representing positive and negative forces.
Meaning – Control over tension of opposites. A struggle, and an eventual, hard-won victory. It can mean a union of opposites.
Reverse – Failure in carrying out a project, defeat. Not facing reality.
A difficult card to interpret. Eventual triumph over all difficulties through perseverance. Movement forward is indicated. Hang in there!
Strength :
Symbols – A woman dominant over a lions head, holding its jowls with her hands as it rests in her control.
Meaning – Strength, courage, determination. Mind over matter. Confidence.
Reverse – Weakness, impotency, sickness. Lack of faith.
The important message of the strength card is not to give up. To have the courage to keep at it till you succeed and to have the faith and optimism that you will succeed. This card is able to offset any negatives in surrounding cards.
The Hermit :
Symbols – An elderly bearded man wearing a habit holds a lantern in his right hand. The lantern represents occult knowledge.
Meaning – Withdrawal, meditation on the meaning of life. tendency to withhold emotion. Fear of discovery.

Meaning – Destiny. Fortune, fate. Approaching the end of a problem. Movement, advancement.

This card can mean movement, change/evolution. Change will seem to come out of the blue, a stroke of good, unexpected luck. One must find the still centre for tranquility. A card of Karma.
Justice :
Symbols – A crowned woman holds the scales of justice and a heavy double edged sword. In some decks she is blindfolded.
Meaning – Fairness, balance, justice. Sense of proportion in one's self and life.
Reversed – Bias. False accusations, injustice, lack of balance.
This card means we are held accountable for our actions. This applies to the material/physical/ethical world. Its spiritual equivalent is the (XX) Judgment card.
The Hanged Man :
Symbols -A man hanging by one foot from a Tau cross. His free leg is always bent to form a "4," his face is always peaceful, never suffering. His hands are secured behind his back.
Meaning -This is a time of trial or meditation, selflessness, sacrifice, prophecy.

This card can also imply a time when everything just stands still, a time of rest and reflection before moving on.

Meaning -Transformation. Clearing away the old to make way for the new.

Meaning – Complete and sudden change. Severing of a friendship. Changing of beliefs, opinions. Disruption, unexpected events.
Reverse – Entrapment in an unhappy situation. Following old ways.
This is not a tarot readers favorite card to get in a reading. The subject is going to have their style of life and way of thinking disrupted, which they will see as a catastrophe. The disruption may be followed by enlightenment. Clearing away the old to make way for the new.
The Star :
Symbols – Seven or eight stars, a kneeling woman, a pool of water, two urns.
Meaning – Hope, faith, inspiration. Mixing the past and present. Promising opportunity. Good health.
Reverse – Illness, unfulfilled hopes, bad luck.
In contrast to the previous card, this is a card of inspiration. The subject should be able to see their way forward past old obstacles.
The Moon :
Symbols – A full moon (with a crescent within), twin pillars, two dogs/wolves howling, a stream that runs to the ocean, a crayfish emerging out of the water.
Meaning -Deception, obscurity, disillusionment, caution. Bad influence.
Reverse – Peace will come after a difficult period.
A yearning for fulfillment, but unforseen perils, threatening situations. Psychic forces may be at work. This very much a cautionary card for the subject to take great care during the period represented by this card.
The Sun :
Symbols – The Sun, one or two naked children (a naked little boy, sometimes riding a white pony or a boy and a girl), sunflowers, often a wall, sometimes a banner.
Meaning – Satisfaction, accomplishment, contentment, success, achievement.
Reverse -Uncertainty of future plans, loss of something of value.
A very positive card. Contentment, attainment of personal goals. Happy marriage.
Judgment :
Symbols – Angel, trumpets, graves with people rising from them, often water or an ocean.
Meaning -The need to repent and forgive. Atonement, rebirth, development, promotion.
Reverse – Delay, disappointment. Health warnings.
Growing awarenesses. I often see this as a card of spiritual growth – shift in personal consciousness, a growing of personal awareness. Its material/ethical equivalent is the (XI) Justice card.
The World :
Symbols -A clothed woman stands within an oval wreath. She holds a thin wand. The four corners have symbols of the apocalypse – an angel, an eagle, a bull and a lion – guardians of the truth.
Meaning – Attachment, completion, perfection. The end result of all efforts – success.
Reverse – Fear of change, failure to complete venture. Lack of vision.
Reward ,completion. I often 'see' travel associated with this card.

Tarot Card Reading Instructions
These Tarot Card Reading Instructions are designed to give you an overview of a the process for a typical reading. Of course all readers have their own style and method.
I'll give you give you a few examples and situations as I would perform them when reading for a client. However what works for you is what you should follow as each reading is a highly intimate association between you and your client.
Some readers like to surround their readings in mystique and symbolism and for others it is simply a straight forward casting of the cards. I preferred for lighting to be a little on the low side to make aura reading easier. Also I always recorded each reading and presented the client with the tape for future reference.
Basic Tarot Card Reading Instructions :
- Many (most) readers keep their tarot deck wrapped in a cloth which usually doubles as a tablecloth whilst reading.
- Unwrap the cards and lay the cloth out on the table.
- Pick up the cards and shuffle thoroughly. Because the cards are usually on the large side, it may help to shuffle end on rather than side on.
- I like to be sure that the cards are all right side up, and keep them that way unless a subject hands them to me reversed.
- Hand the deck to the subject and ask them to hold them for a minute or so. We want the deck to reflect their vibes.
(This is sacrilege to some readers as they allow only their own touch on the cards.)!
When I receive the deck back, I hold it for about 30 seconds or so to see if I can obtain a psychometric* reading from the deck. Usually I will receive an impression of their state of mind from doing this.
** Psychometry – Psychic sense from holding an article familiar to someone. Sometimes quite vivid impressions can be gained.
Now I spread the deck face down out across the cloth in an arc and ask the subject to select and hand me a card. Naturally if you do not allow others to handle your pack you will have to select the cards for them. Of course before this point you need to know what type of spread you want to work with. As your subject hands you each card turn it over and lay it down in its order/position in the spread.
Continue until the spread is complete. Now start interpreting the spread. Don't think, don't analyze, just let it flow. It may not make sense to you – it doesn't have to – It is not your reading!
These Tarot Card Reading Instructions are a broad guide only. Actually, you will find that most readings take on a life of their own. Of course you will tailor the reading to the person you are reading for, but be warned, appearances can be deceiving, so let the cards do the talking.
It is all very well to have your tarot card reading instructions by your side, but when it come to a real reading, you are reading for people, and usually people you do not know. An understanding of people is most important because your clients have come to you for advice. Whilst the advice is in the cards, its delivery is in your hands.
Tarot card reading instructions get you as far as the reading, then you have to deliver! If you find that you need clarification on a card, don't hesitate to ask your subject to draw another card to expand on the card in question. A personal quirk of mine is to have the subject draw a "character" card a the start of the reading.
From this card I give them an overview of their character or situation. This for my own confidence, to be sure that I have made a "connection" with my subject. (There have been one or two times when for whatever reason I simply could not make a connection with my subject and have had to call the reading off.)
On some occasions I have also had my client draw cards for the past and future outcome for the same reasons. I recommend that you read the self understanding chapters of the free online personal development course –
Be Master of Your Life. These chapters of that course will give you at least a basic understanding of people and how they operate, and in addition, will most likely take you on a journey of self discovery.
Sometimes you will have all sorts of specific impressions popping into your mind regarding the client, (which of course you pass on), and with other clients you may find the reading to be very general.
What ever passes into your consciousness during the reading is part of the reading.
Don't expect it to make sense!
It doesn't have to.
It is often more difficult to read for friends and acquaintances than for strangers because we think we know them so we skew the reading to meet expectations, both ours and theirs.
When reading Tarot Cards your clients will expect you to be :
- A clairvoyant.
- A psychologist.
- A confessor.
- A counselor.
- An oracle.
- A listener.
- A best friend.
- A confidant. **
** We never, ever repeat anything that is said in a reading outside of that reading!
What transpires in a reading stays in the reading.
Same rules as would apply to a priest!
After all that is how some people will regard you!
Important Tarot Card Reading Instructions :
Important for you that is!
You are acting as a counsellor when you are reading someones cards.
A certain level of detatchment is important.
Empathy is great, sympathy is not!
When you are reading for someone else, the impressions you receive are not yours, you are simply the mouthpiece!
The information and impressions you receive for some-one else are for themselves.
So give them away and don't own them!
Carrying around someone elses problems is a sure recipe for disaster in your own life.
You will surprise yourself reading tarot cards at just what you come up with.
Things you 'see' as interpretations of impressions you see on the cards will amaze the person you are reading tarot cards for.
"How could you have known that!", is often a reaction you will receive. (However, you may have no idea what they are talking about. After all it is their reading).
Don't put your reality in there – it is your clients reality you are describing when you are reading their tarot cards.
I hope these tarot card reading instructions are of some help to you in what is a fascinating field.

COLORS OF INDIA: Manish Arora has transformed the Joyce Gallery in Paris' Palais Royal into a brightly hued space full of flashing lights, gemstones and glitter. "This is my world," said the designer at the opening party for the pop-up store on Saturday evening. "I thought it was a good chance to show not just me but everything I like about India."
In addition to Arora's fashion designs, the incense-filled shop features everything from colorful wooden statuettes from the city of Varanasi, where he recently shot his short film "Holi Holy," through collaborations with brands like Portico for bedding and Good Earth for tableware, to a selection of brands and works evocative of his home country, including Nappa Dori bags and elephant photographs by Charles Fréger. While the effect is more like an art gallery than a retail store, "everything is for sale; you can take a part of my world home," Arora did not hesitate to point out. The boutique remains open through November.

Women's Health
Endometrium and Cervix
The cervix is the lower part of the uterus that opens into the vagina. It is also called the neck of the uterus.
The endometrium is the mucous membrane that lines the inside of the uterus (womb). The endometrium changes throughout the menstrual cycle. It becomes thick and rich with blood vessels to prepare for pregnancy. If the woman does not get pregnant, part of the endometrium is shed, causing menstrual bleeding.

In an interview during his run for the Democratic Party's presidential nomination in 1980, Senator Edward (Ted) Kennedy spoke of the U.S.'s propensity for innovation. Nearly 30 years later, that comment was among the remembrances of the recently deceased Kennedy, and it struck me that this line is equally applicable to the beauty industry as it eyes 2010.
As I write this column from the floor of my fifth HBA show (which will be recapped in upcoming issues), it's clear from the floor exhibits, the conferences and the conversations, the industry hasn't rested on the laurels of its past innovations, and it appears to me that technology and nature—two words that, as a whole and particularly in terms of ingredients, certainly have seemed to be at odds with each other in this industry—are being reconciled. In this month's "Chemical Reaction" column, as it happens, Steve Herman notes that modern science often has the tendency to discount nature-based solutions—even if these solutions have a long history of use. The merits behind antidotal benefits can often be overlooked, and natural product discovery was de-emphasized in favor of the new methods.
Soon after this column came across my desk, Swissclinical—a newly launched skin care brand that looked at the melding of science and nature as the foundation for its products—was brought to my attention. It was a bit of serendipity, providing me with a perfectly timed for-consumer-consumption illustration of Herman's points, and I think the ideas inherent in the column and behind the brand aptly reflect what the majority of consumers are truly after—brands that consider the wide-ranging impacts of their products and products that are effective.
Want the rest of the story? Simply sign up. It's easy. Plus, it only takes 1 minute and it's free!
Herman heralds the growing inclination of an open scientific approach to the use of natural ingredients, and it must be noted that the more advanced packaging becomes, the more, too, related concepts (sustainable, recyclable, green, etc.) are considered. Are we on the cusp of dropping certain labels from positioning statements? I don't think so. Consumers are still looking for key words to identify how a brand fits in their lifestyle and on the shelves of their vanities, but I do think they are ready for and open to a new way of thinking about products.
I think that this is a good thing, challenging brand owners to realign some of the banners they've carried. GCI magazine has offered its definitions of innovations on a number of occasions: Innovation means looking at the world in different ways; innovation is the development of a competitive edge. And this challenge, if undertaken, requires brands to look at what has been so heavily parlayed in a different way and will foster the development of new and impactful competitive edges.
