Eucalyptus Essential Oil Reduces Spread of Tuberculosis
Research from the University of Illinois' College of Pharmacy has found that eucalyptus essential oil can be used to stop the spread of tuberculosis from those who are contagious.
The researchers tested essential oil from the Eucalyptus citriodora – also called Corymbia citriodora – with airborne tuberculosis. The researchers found that the essential oil significantly inhibited the spread of airborne tuberculosis using eucalyptus essential oil with inhalation therapy.
The researchers then quantified 32 different anti-tuberculosis constituents – medicinal compounds that included eucalyptol, spathulenol, linalool, citronellol, isopulegol, terpineol, eudesmol, cadinol and others.
The researchers found that a combination of citronellol, linalool and eucalyptol inhibited airborne tuberculosis transmission by more than 90 percent.
Eucalyptus is antibacterial
This is not that surprising a result because eucalyptus essential oil has been found to be significantly antibacterial. A study from Germany's Heidelberg University found that Eucalyptus essential oil from the Eucalyptus globules fruit was found to be significantly antibiotic against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus.
One of the main compounds found in this oil included aromadendrene at 31 percent. They found the eucalyptus leaf oil was not as antibiotic as the fruit essential oil.
In a study from Italy's SOC Microbiology and Virology Clinic, researchers found the Eucalyptus smithii was srongly antibiotic against biofilms of Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
This is not surprising to herbalists, who have used eucalyptus for healing bronchial infections for centuries.
Tuberculosis Bacteria
Tuberculosis is spread mainly by an infection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, but other bacteria can also be involved. TB can be spread via breathing, coughing or sneezing by an infected person. At least 10 percent of those who contract the bacteria will succumb to an active infection, which can be spread to others.
Signs of an active infection include fever, coughing, and blood in the sputum. While antibiotics are the conventional treatment, more TB bacteria are becoming resistant to multiple antibiotics.
Preventing transmission
Preventing the transmission and an active infection requires preemptive action. This means avoiding people who cough or at least asking them to cover their coughing with their forearm if they are not already.
It is important to note that according to the World Health Organization (2002) nearly a third of the world's population is already infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis, and about 80 percent of Asians and Africans test positive for TB.
Since this many people do not have active forms of the infection, this means that avoiding an active infection of TB relates directly to the strength of the immune system and the lungs. This can be done before or after being infected.
Having some eucalyptus essential oil with us when we are traveling is a good idea that may help us prevent an infection. We can apply some to a tissue and lay the tissue in our close presence. We can also apply some to our skin, but applying eucalyptus essential oil onto our skin should be done with caution, and preceded by first applying a small test drop.

Case Adams is a California Naturopath and a Board Certified Alternative Medicine Practitioner with a PhD in Natural Health Sciences. He has authored 26 books on natural healing strategies. "My journey into writing about alternative medicine began about 9:30 one evening after I finished with a patient at the clinic I practiced at over a decade ago. I had just spent the last two hours explaining how diet, sleep and other lifestyle choices create health problems and how changes in these, along with certain herbal medicines and other natural strategies can radically yet safely turn our health around. As I drove home that night, I realized this knowledge should be available to more people. So I began writing about health with a mission to reach those who desperately need this information. The strategies in my books and articles are backed by scientific evidence along with wisdom handed down through traditional medicines for thousands of years."

Sorry to be a pain, do you mean you quit your job three years ago and quit the meds 2 weeks ago?
Depending how long you were on them and at what dosage?

(depending on severity) it may be you still need time to adjust.

Date introduced to the House of Lords
Current Bill Number
Previous Reports
House of Commons 111
7.1 This Bill would make it a condition of registration
to practice medicine or dentistry that the practitioner should
hold approved indemnity insurance cover. The drafting of the Bill
is unclear. For example, it does not define 'approved indemnity
cover', or mention professional negligence insurance except in
the long and short titles. It also engages the right to peaceful
enjoyment of possessions under Article 1 of Protocol No. 1 to
the ECHR. In our view the requirement (if more clearly drafted)
would be likely to be justifiable under that Article, but the
current drafting makes it impossible for us to be satisfied that
the Bill would be held to meet the demands of the principle of
legal certainty which underpins the protection of human rights.
7.2 Our Chair has written to the Member responsible
for the Bill, Dr Desmond Turner MP, to draw his attention to our
concerns. The letter is printed as an appendix to this Report.
7.3 We draw the matter to the attention of each

- our climate is better not! - Said a local resident. Her voice sounded endearing conviction.
But I did not have to convince - I had already fallen in love with this small town, located both in the bowl, in the midst of the hills. On the slope of one of them, he creeps up and the two streets, branching here and there, disappearing behind a low pass.
«The small wooden houses and large gardens' - as my companion described it. Everywhere lots of greenery, old trees, cherry, houses the windows - lilac. Ah, to walk down this street at night in early summer, when all the flowers and fragrance here!

Avaya was near a deal last night to sell itself to Silver Lake Partners and the Texas Pacific Group for more than $8 billion in the latest buyout in the telecommunications industry, according to people briefed on the sale.
The two private equity firms appear to have bested a rival bid from Nortel Networks and a deal may be announced as early as today, those people said. But they cautioned that the talks were ongoing and that Nortel could field a higher 11th-hour bid.
The firms are expected to pay about $17 per share, the people said. Avaya's shares closed Friday at $16.08.
Speculation about a buyout first arose two weeks ago, when the company unexpectedly postponed a meeting with analysts without offering an explanation or setting a new date. An Avaya spokeswoman would not comment.
Avaya, which was once a division of Lucent Technologies and AT&T before that, is one of the nation's top makers of phone equipment, rivaling Cisco, Nortel and Alcatel-Lucent in providing Internet-based communications to corporations. Much of its business focuses on upgrading companies to voice networks that can also offer video and data services.Continue reading the main story
Avaya draws almost a third of its revenue from its long-term maintenance contracts, though the company has warned that as those agreements expire, its customers have the leverage to demand lower fees.
The company, which was spun off from Lucent in October 2000, suffered in 2002 as the dot-com bubble burst. But its financial health has rebounded so strongly that a Merrill Lynch analyst recently described Avaya as an ideal buyout candidate.
In its fiscal year ended Sept. 30, 2006, the company reported net profit of $201 million on revenue of $5.12 billion, and it is virtually debt-free. The company, based in Basking Ridge, N.J., has about 20,000 employees.
The move comes amid heavy deal-making in the telecommunications sector. Last month, Alltel, the wireless service provider, agreed to a $27.5 billion buyout by Texas Pacific and a unit of Goldman Sachs.
Analysts have predicted consolidation in the telecommunications equipment sector. Mergers among phone companies have amplified their size and purchasing power, while low-cost Asian companies have squeezed the profits of their Western counterparts. Last year, Alcatel and Lucent agreed to merge in an $11.6 billion deal, which many analysts say forced players like Avaya and Nortel to ally to stay competitive.
Some analysts had seen an Avaya-Nortel pairing as a good fit. But the companies' overlap in product offerings make integration difficult, analysts said.Continue reading the main story

Ohio EPA will hold a public hearing on Aug. 23, 2017, to take comments on proposed water quality standards, which include criteria that would cover pesticides, dredged material and E. coli.
The hearing will begin at 10:30 a.m. in the Ohio EPA Conference Center, Room A, 50 West Town Street, Suite 700, Columbus. Ohio EPA will accept comments pertaining to the proposed rules. Please register to present testimony by calling (614) 644-2160. Visitors to the building must present a photo I.D.
As part of the Agency's five-year rule review requirements, Ohio EPA has reviewed the purpose and criteria applicable to all water rules and is proposing the following changes:
The proposed rules address the reasons water quality standards are needed in Ohio, what those standards should be and how they are applied. The proposed rules are designed to protect surface waters of the state. The proposed rules also address when exceptions can be made to the rules.
Visit Ohio EPA's website for more information about the water quality standards and water quality certification rules. Copies of the proposed rules also are available by contacting Dan Dudley at (614) 644-2876 or email@example.com.
Written comments should be mailed to Rules Coordinator, Ohio EPA Division of Surface Water, P.O. Box 1049, Columbus, Ohio 43216-1049, or emailed to email@example.com. The comment period ends at 5 p.m. on Aug. 23, 2017.
The Ohio Environmental Protection Agency was created in 1972 to consolidate efforts to protect and improve air quality, water quality and waste management in Ohio. Since then, air pollutants dropped by as much as 90 percent; large rivers meeting standards improved from 21 percent to 89 percent; and hundreds of polluting, open dumps were replaced with engineered landfills and an increased emphasis on waste reduction and recycling.
Report release of any material that impacts public health or the environment, including chemicals and petroleum products. Be prepared with as much of the following information as possible:

Iori Yagami (八神 庵 Yagami Iori) is a character from SNK's The King of Fighters video game series who first appeared in The King of Fighters '95 as the leader of the Rivals Team. He is an iconic character in the series, and appears regularly on publicity material and merchandise. Iori is a central character to the series' plot, and the initial enemy and eventual rival of Kyo Kusanagi. He was created specifically to become Kyo's rival and his name and abilities were designed to relate him with the Yamata no Orochi legend. The designers ended up liking him so much that they are careful how his character is developed as the series expands.
Iori is the heir of the Yagami clan, who wield pyrokinetic powers and sealed the Orochi demon along with the Kusanagi and Yata clans. However, after betraying the Kusanagi clan, the Yagami are cursed by Orochi giving them powers that cause all their members to die young. The character harbors hatred against the other clans, but later becomes obsessed with killing the heir to the Kusanagi clan, Kyo. As a result, Iori sometimes helps him in order to have the opportunity to have a final fight against him. Aside from the main series, Iori appears in several other media series such as spin-offs and crossover video games, and comic adaptations of the series.
Video games journalists have praised the character as one of the most powerful characters in the series. Reviewers have also cited Iori as one of the best characters from the games, labeling him as a veteran character and praising his appearance as one of the best creations by SNK. A variety of collectibles based on Iori's likeness have been created, including key chains and figurines.
Conception and creation[edit]
A main objective planned for The King of Fighters '95 was to introduce Iori properly as Kyo's rival. Creators have stated Iori's personality, and other aspects of his character such as his phrases and unique moves, "broke the mold for characters in fighting games at that time"[2] Like Kyo, several aspects of Iori, including his surname and abilities, were designed to relate him to the Yamata no Orochi legend, which was the inspiration for the plot.[2] After observing fan reactions at initial location testing for King of Fighters '95, several staff members predicted that Iori would be popular on his release.[3][4] One of them was happy that at an event for The King of Fighters XIII on March 25, 2010, several fans reminded him that it was Iori's birthday according to his official profile.[5] Iori is a berserker due to the Orochi demon blood within him. This version of him, officially named "Orochi Iori", is hinted to have existed before his debut in The King of Fighters '97 as one of the game's mid bosses. This form of Iori was designed specifically to overpower other characters easily.[6] Series' flagship director, Toyohisa Tanabe, states that the staff was initially reluctant to add this version of Iori to the series' roster—worried about fans' reactions—but did so to add more impact to the Orochi saga's climax. He was particularly pleased to see surprised reactions from female fans to this form during KOF '97's location testing. Another minor development of his character was his change of "most valued possession/valued treasure" information. A girlfriend was also listed more than once, specifically in The King of Fighters '95, The King of Fighters '99, and The King of Fighters 2000. However, starting with The King of Fighters 2001 and every entry after, the space is listed as "None". The SNK staff commented that it is curious that he does not have a girlfriend anymore.[7]
During the early development stages of The King of Fighters '99, SNK planned to exclude Iori and Kyo from the game, as the story's focus was meant to center on the new protagonist, K'. However, they reversed this decision because of the characters' popularity.[8] Iori's, Kyo's, and other SNK regulars repeated appearances in the series is at the insistence of the marketers and main planners, making it a challenge to decide the story for each title.[9] Because of his popularity among fans, some of the series' main designers have stated that he is "difficult to draw for". Illustrator Shinkiro thought Iori was one of the series' wildest characters because of his hairstyle; similar sentiments were expressed by Last Blade illustrator, Tonko.[10] In addition, KOF: Maximum Impact producer Falcoon stated that attempting to change an "untouchable" design such as Iori's put him under severe pressure. He stated that creating Iori's alternate design that appears in the Maximum Impact series almost felt "unforgivable", as he felt unsure of fans' reaction to the change.[11]
In The King of Fighters XIII, Iori's gameplay mechanics were modified to be a close range fighter. Despite losing his flaming techniques, he was given brutal moves using his nails to emphasize his character's ferociousness. His strongest technique in the game, "Forbidden 1218 Shiki: Yatagarasu" (禁千弐百拾八式・八咫烏), is a new move that focuses on violent combos and serves as a reference to the character's ending from The King of Fighters '96 in which he brutally murders his teammates. Iori's 10th color scheme in the game matches his classic outfit's scheme, and during development of the game, details were added to increase the similarities. The ending of the character at the end of the game was also pointed by developers as something to look forward to.[12] His version, featuring his classic techniques, was designed with the intention of not surpassing the current Iori so that players would choose the fighting style they prefer in the game.[13] This was further emphasized in the console version of The King of Fighters XIII where Iori had his moveset adjusted for better balancing by not using flaming techniques.[14]
In the making of The King of Fighters XIV, Kuroki wanted him to change but did not want his hair to be part of it. Character designer Ogura created a new outfit for Iori which impressed Kuroki. Additionally, he asked the modeller to focus on his male sex appeal and to play close detail to the way Iori's eyes are designed.[15] This new design, alongside Kyo's, provoked major controversy during the time it was revealed. However, KOF XIV director Yasuyuki Oda said the team wanted the characters to carry a new look due to the game being set in another story arc.[16]
Iori is a violent and sadistic person who suffers from trauma because of his clan's past. In ancient times, the Yagami clan was known as the Yasakani. With the help of the Yata and Kusanagi clans, they sealed the demon Orochi. As time passed, the Yasakani, tired of living in the shadow of the Kusanagi, made a blood pact with Orochi. This gave them greater powers, but in return, they and their descendants were forever cursed. They renamed their clan the Yagami and set out to destroy the Kusanagi with their new powers. In response, the Kusanagi declared war on the Yagami, which led to many clan members on both sides being killed.[17]
As a side-effect of the Orochi's curse, the flames of the Yagami have a bluish tint.[17][18] The curse also causes each heir to die young and each mother to die in childbirth. Iori suffers from an additional curse - "The Riot of the Blood" (血の暴走 Chi no Bōso) - when he becomes faster, more powerful, wilder, and tends to attack anybody near him indiscriminately. In this state Iori is commonly named "Wild Iori" or "Orochi Iori" (月の夜大蛇の血に狂う庵 Tsuki no Yoru Orochi no Chi ni Kuruu Iori, lit. Insane Iori with Blood of Orochi Under the Night of the Moon).[19] Iori hates the Kusanagi clan because of this curse, but later becomes obsessed with killing its heir Kyo, disregarding their clans' past. This sometimes results in Iori helping him to defeat his enemies to finish their battle.[20] In order to find him, he sometimes enters the King of Fighters tournaments and uses his teammates as tools in order to get to him.[21] Iori appears in most of the series' games, and is voiced by Kunihiko Yasui,[1] before being replaced by Takanori Hoshino.
In video games[edit]
First appearing in The King of Fighters '95, Iori enters the annual tournament as the leader of the Rival Team along with Billy Kane and Eiji Kisaragi) as he learns that the heir of the Kusanagi clan, Kyo, is expected to be there.[21] However, the team fails to defeat Kyo's team and Iori betrays his teammates.[22] In the next video game, Iori teams up with two women, Vice and Mature, servants of the Orochi demon.[23][24][25] During the '96 competition, Iori meets Chizuru Kagura, heir of the Yata clan, who wants to gather Kyo and Iori on her team to seal Orochi. Together they defeat the Orochi follower Goenitz but neither Iori nor Kyo agree with the idea.[19] When Iori leaves with his teammates, he is unable to control this surge of Orochi power, resulting in their deaths.[26] Iori continues to suffer from multiple outbreaks and during The King of Fighters '97, attacks other team members. As such, Iori appears as a sub-boss character in the game depending on the characters that the player uses.[27] He later joins Chizuru and Kyo to confront and seal Orochi.[20][28]
In The King of Fighters '99 Iori is a secret character in most versions of the game. Iori can be faced as a bonus fight in the end of the game if the player manages to get a high score. In the story, Iori discovers the creation of Kyo clones and enters the annual tournament where he finds those responsible, an organization named NEST.[29] Iori follows the battles in secret and fights against the Nests' agents to continue his fight against Kyo.[30] An assistant version of his character, named Striker, also appears for Iori in The King of Fighters 2000 but with an outfit based on his illustrations from artbooks.[31] In The King of Fighters 2001, an agent named Seth invites Iori to join his team for the next King of Fighters tournament, presuming that he would get his shot against Kyo.[32] While his regular form appears in KOF 2002, his Orochi form is also featured in the PlayStation 2 port from the game as well as the remake of KOF '98.[33][34] In The King of Fighters 2003, Chizuru appears to both Kyo and Iori, requesting that they form a team and investigate suspicious activities concerning the Orochi seal.[35] During the investigation, the team is ambushed by the fighter Ash Crimson, who plans to get the power from the descendants of the clans who sealed Orochi and steals the ones from Chizuru.[36] In the following video game, Iori and Kyo form a team once again with Kyo's student Shingo Yabuki to fill Chizuru's spot to stop Ash.[37] At the end of the tournament, the strengthening presence of Orochi causes Iori to enter the Riot of Blood state, in which he attacks his comrades. Ash appears afterward and defeats Iori, stealing his powers.[38][39] Iori is a playable character in The King of Fighters XII. Iori is featured with a different outfit, and with a new moveset, that does not use purple flames. Like each character, he does not have a team.[40] Iori's appearance in The King of Fighters XIII sees him teamed with his former team members from the 1996 tournament, Mature and Vice, who return as spirits.[41] He recovers his flames in his ending and appears as downloadable content in this form.[42] He returns in The King of Fighters XIV, and he is also the one who tracks Orochi's weakened body in the middle of Hungary after the tournament is over. Thus, he seals the weakened snake with the help from Kyo and Chizuru immediately.[43] As Iori wears a new costume in the game, his classic one appears as downloadable content.[44]
In The King of Fighters: Kyo, a role-playing video game situated before KOF '97, Iori appears as Kyo's antagonist in his journey around the world.[45][46] Iori appears in the spin-off video games Maximum Impact series.[47] In the North American editions of Maximum Impact, Iori is voiced by Eric Summerer.[48] Iori also appears as a sub-boss during The King of Fighters Ex: Neo Blood, which is situated after his fight against Orochi. Although Iori enters the tournament to fight Kyo, Geese Howard, the organizer of the tournament, tries to make him awake his Riot of the Blood to absorb his powers, but fails. In The King of Fighters EX2: Howling Blood, Iori enters another tournament, and is joined by two women who want to find a man controlled by the Orochi power.[49] The shooter game KOF: Sky Stage also features him as a boss.[50]
Iori also appears in SNK's hand-held game, SNK Gals' Fighters, as a comical interpretation called Miss X (ミス X Misu Ekusu). The character insists he is a female in order to participate in the game's Queen of Fighters tournament, though several female fighters easily see through his disguise.[51] In the crossover video games NeoGeo Battle Coliseum and SNK vs. Capcom series, Iori appears as a playable character; the latter includes his Riot of the Blood state.[52][53] His character is also a boss character (along with Geese) in the Game Boy version from Real Bout Fatal Fury Special.[54]
In other media[edit]
Aside from the King of Fighters series, the character is featured on his own drama CD[55] and character image album.[56] In the anime The King of Fighters: Another Day, Iori is seen searching for Ash to regain his powers.[57] Iori appears in the spin-off manga story based on his adventure prior to The King of Fighters '96 entitled, The King of Fighters: Kyo.[58] The character appears in the manhua adaptation of The King of Fighters: Zillion created by Andy Seto. The manhua retells Iori's story from his fight against Orochi until he attacks NESTS to destroy Kyo's clones. He also stars in further manhua for the games, starting with The King of Fighters 2001 through 2003 along with the Maximum Impact series.[10] In The King of Fighters movie, Iori is played by Will Yun Lee.[59] In the CGI series The King of Fighters: Destiny Iori makes a brief appearance in the first season's finale where he is seen trying to play music but starts going berserk.[60] He is also one of the two protagonists alongside Kyo in online gag manga Part Time Stories: Kyo & Iori by Falcoon where the two title characters work together to promote SNK's merchandising.[61] He is also featured in the manga The King of Fighters: A New Beginning.[62]
Critical response[edit]
Iori's character was mostly well received by several video game publications and other media. IGN's A. E. Sparrow considered him one of the most useful of the games' characters and one of the best ones for the "veteran players".[63] In another review from the same site, writer Jeremy Dunham praised Iori's appearance in KOF: Maximum Impact as one of the best designs from the game. However, Dunham complained about his lack of bloody scenes considering his actions in previous 2D games.[64] The character's ending in The King of Fighters '97 has been considered by 1UP.com as one of the strangest parts of the story. However, they considered his winning quotations and appearance as one of the best creations of SNK, commenting that the company had been unable to make such an appealing character until K′'s introduction.[65] Lucke M. Albiges from Eurogamer praised Iori, along with Kyo, as having one of the most unpredictable appearances in the series, and considered him a veteran character.[66] In the top ten fighting games from GameTrailers, Iori has been called one of the main innovative figures from the series, from his introduction in The King of Fighters '95 through his development in the following games.[67] Some commentators found his recurring interactions with Kyo Kusanagi during fights d to be appealing, adding depth to the games, despite the fact English gamers are not able to understand them, and some lack a storyline.[68]
The character's new design from The King of Fighters XII has been well received by GameSpot writer Andrew Park who found such moves interesting.[69] On the other hand, 1UP.com writer Richard Li; Li complained about the lack of Iori's signature moves such as his fireballs, and while some of them remained, Li noted that they now require a different input from the ones they normally require.[70] Kevin S. from GameRevolution liked the interactions between Kyo and Iori in The King of Fighters XIV as it was one of the most famous parts from the series similarly to Feit.[71] The Orochi form from Iori was listed as the sixth best altered video game character alongside Leona's based on the impact both have on the storyline by Den of Geek.[72] The same site also listed him as the fourth best King of Fighters characters based on his moves, rivalry with Kyo as well as apparent character arc based on how he retakes his lost powers in KOF XIII and used them in KOF XIV to once again seal Orochi.[73] Meanwhile, Iori's return of his classic techniques in KOF XIV mainly using flames were celebrated by Hobby Consolas due to their popularity within the fans.[74] Iori's crossdressing persona, Miss X, has been popular to the point SNK stated they got multiple requests to add him into the crossover game SNK Heroines: Tag Team Frenzy, an upcoming fighting game focused on female characters.[75]
In an interview with Iori's Japanese voice actor, Kunihiko Yasui comments that he feels responsible as a voice actor for his performances as Iori, taking care to sound different in each installment as a means of developing and "protecting" his character's humanity.[76] Iori has been highly popular with video gamers. In Gamest's 1996 Heroes Collection, Iori was no. 2 in the poll Best Character from 1996.[77] In an issue from 1997, Iori was voted as the staff's favorite character, claiming first place over fifty other characters.[78] He also received the same rank on Neo Geo Freak's website with a total of 3,792 votes.[79] In a 2005 poll made by SNK-Playmore USA, he was voted the eighth fan favorite character with 145 votes.[80] Merchandising based on Iori has also been released including figurines, key-chains and puzzles.[81][82] In the book Gaming Cultures and Place in Asia-Pacific, Kyo was regarded as one of the most popular video game characters in Hong Kong from the mid 1990s onwards alongside Kyo, Mai among others to the point of overshadowing the Street Fighter ones who were also largely well-known.[83]
To decide the cover for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 ports of KOF XII, Ignition Entertainment started a survey on May 4, 2009, in which users from their forum could vote between two covers they wanted to see in the game. While both covers use various characters, one uses Kyo in the center and the other Iori.[84][85] When the two surveys ended, Ignition started two new ones, in which people had to vote between the previous winners and the Japanese covers from the game for both consoles.[86][87]

When you think of Iori Yagami, his intense personality most likely comes to mind. His moves are unique, and his dives choice of hairstyle, wardrobe, and manner of speaking was certainly a personality that broke the mold of former characters in fighting games at that time. During the initial location tests to determine the popularity of the game, Iori was the character who stood out most. His hair and his lines to provoke his opponents ("You think I'm scary, do you?") excited his fans to no end.

Red Lobster Launches First Spanish-Language Advertising Campaign
National campaign will introduce more Hispanic families to the restaurant
Jan 15, 2013, 08:00 EST
ORLANDO, Fla., Jan. 15, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Red Lobster, the world's largest casual dining seafood restaurant, launched its first Spanish-language advertising campaign. The national campaign is designed to introduce more Hispanic guests to the Red Lobster experience and to highlight the restaurant's comprehensive menu, which was recently transformed to offer guests more affordable, great-tasting options and greater overall choice and variety.

(Photo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20130115/CL41614-b )
"With the Hispanic population in the U.S. growing at four times the rate of the overall population, the goal of the campaign is to make the brand more relevant to these important guests by reaching them in a more meaningful and impactful way," said Stewart Marquina, director of marketing, Red Lobster.
The first Spanish-language ad, created by WPP's Wing, is an adaptation of the general market "Real People" advertising campaign that features the "Sea Food Differently" tag. It was created based on Hispanic cultural insights and features the tag "Disfruta un Mar de Sabores" ("Enjoy a Sea of Flavors"), along with Ariana Paz, a real server at the Gainesville, Fla., Red Lobster. The spot follows Paz as she shares her genuine, unscripted passion for the food and restaurant experience while serving a family enjoying a delicious meal.
"We know that many Hispanics see the dining experience as an opportunity to bring family and friends together to celebrate, share and bond, so that important moment in time is brought to life in the ad," said Marquina. "With a wide variety of menu options, Red Lobster is able to provide something every member of the family can enjoy."
Partnership with Univision
Beyond advertising, Red Lobster is partnering with Univision Communications Inc., the leading media company serving Hispanic America, to create a customized segment named "La Pregunta Fresca del Dia" ("The Fresh Question of the Day"). Airing during the popular entertainment show, "El Gordo y La Flaca" ("The Scoop and the Skinny"), the segment will give the audience celebrity anecdotes and news, while also highlighting Red Lobster's variety of menu offerings and affordability.
Univision Network's popular daily morning show "Despierta America" ("Wake-Up America") will also support the Red Lobster campaign with brand spotlights where viewers will be invited to tune into "La Pregunta Fresca del Dia" on "El Gordo y La Flaca." Custom-created vignettes will also promote Red Lobster messaging and drive tune-in to "La Pregunta Fresca del Dia."
New Dining Experience
Highlighted in the ad is the new Red Lobster menu—now available nationwide in Spanish—that offers more items with price points below $15. It also offers an expanded selection of great-tasting, non-seafood dishes to satisfy guests who prefer something other than seafood. Menu items include:
- Bacon-Wrapped Shrimp: With a peach-bourbon BBQ glaze and pico de gallo, served over mashed potatoes and choice of accompaniment.
- Wood-Grilled Chicken with Portobello Wine Sauce: Served with mashed potatoes and choice of accompaniment.
- Tilapia with Roasted Vegetables: Seasoned and roasted in a parchment bag with white wine, asparagus, artichokes and wild rice pilaf.
Additionally, Red Lobster's new menu offers more choice and variety, including lighter-style options and more fish and shrimp entrees. Some examples include:
Lighter-style options such as:
- Bar Harbor Salad with Shrimp: With dried berries and honey-roasted pecans with a blueberry-balsamic vinaigrette and crumbled blue cheese served upon request (260 calories, 9 fat (g) with no dressing or blue cheese).
- Tropical BBQ-Glazed Chicken: Wood-grilled and brushed with papaya-BBQ sauce and topped with fresh pineapple salsa. Served with wild rice and choice of an accompaniment (390 calories, 6 fat (g)).
New seafood options such as:
- Island Grilled Mahi Mahi and Shrimp: Wood-grilled, wild-caught mahi-mahi and a shrimp skewer brushed with a papaya-BBQ sauce and topped with fresh pineapple salsa. Served with broccoli and choice of accompaniment.
- Chesapeake Shrimp with Crab: A Chesapeake-grilled shrimp skewer topped with crab butter and five crab-and-seafood-stuffed shrimp with lobster beurre blanc, served with wild rice pilaf and choice of accompaniment.
Ongoing Commitment to the Hispanic Community
As a member of the Darden family of restaurants, Red Lobster wants the warm and caring experience to extend beyond its restaurant walls into every community it serves. Darden has identified and supports partners that empower the Hispanic community such as:
- ASPIRA: Donated funds to support the rollout of the Youth Leadership Development drop-out prevention program for ASPIRA Clubs and schools.
- Congressional Hispanic Caucus Institute (CHCI): Supported the CHCI Summer Internship Program and CHCI's Hispanic Heritage Month Awards program.
- Hispanic Scholarship Fund: Provided 2012 grant from the Darden Restaurants Foundation in support of $2,500 scholarships and academic support services for 40 students.
- League of United Latin American Citizens (LULAC): Sponsored the Washington Youth Leadership Seminar and Youth Leadership Development Program.
- National Council of La Raza (NCLR): Supported the What If? College Readiness Program.
"We understand that communicating directly to our Hispanic guests is imperative," said Marquina. "This campaign and our ongoing commitment to the Hispanic community allow us to welcome these guests into our restaurant in a much more relevant way, which is exciting as we look to become their go-to place for delicious seafood and everyday celebrations."

Timothy C. Paulitz was born in Erie, PA, and grew up in Montclair, CA. He earned a B.S. degree in botany with a minor in plant pathology from California State Polytechnic University, Pomona in 1979 and a Ph.D. degree in plant pathology from the University of California, Riverside in 1984. He held post-doctoral appointments at Colorado State University from 1984 to 1987 and with the USDA-ARS in Corvallis, OR, from 1987 to 1989. In 1989, he accepted a position in the Department of Plant Science at Macdonald Campus of McGill University, Quebec, Canada, advancing to the rank of associate professor in 1994. In 2000, he joined the USDA-ARS Root Disease and Biological Control Research Unit in Pullman, WA, as a research plant pathologist. Paulitz is recognized as an international leader in research on the ecology, epidemiology, biological control, and cultural management of soilborne fungal pathogens.
At McGill University, Paulitz's research focused on control of diseases caused by Pythium spp. in hydroponically grown vegetables. His novel screening techniques for biocontrol agents of P. aphanidermatum resulted in the identification of strains of Pseudomonas that were highly effective in increasing the production of cucumbers grown in rockwool. He demonstrated that Pseudomonas spp. suppress Pythium root rot by inducing systemic resistance in the host plant. Paulitz was the first to use a split-root system to spatially separate the pseudomonad and pathogen on cucumber and to demonstrate induced systemic resistance as a mechanism of biocontrol against Pythium root rot. Much of his pioneering work in the area of biocontrol in the greenhouse was summarized in an invited chapter in Annual Review of Phytopathology in 2001.
Paulitz, individually or in collaboration with others, also developed a reliable field inoculation method, identified environmental factors influencing spore release and dispersal, and developed a mathematical model describing disease foci for Fusarium head blight of wheat caused by Fusarium graminearum (perfect stage = Gibberella zeae). He perfected a method of producing epidemics in field plots from laboratory-produced ascospores of G. zeae and was the first to describe detailed spore dispersal gradients and the timing of ascospore release from natural inoculum. His studies have made a major contribution to understanding the epidemiology of G. zeae on wheat.
Soon after joining the USDA-ARS, Paulitz and colleagues at Washington State University discovered that glyphosate applied to resistant wheat and soybean could inhibit stripe rust and soybean rust. Previously, it was thought that fungi were relatively resistant to this widely used herbicide. In 2005, these results were published in PNAS and the technology, which has the potential to be used as a tool for managing the diseases, was licensed to Monsanto.
Paulitz's current research focuses on root and crown rot diseases of small grains and brassicas caused by Rhizoctonia, Gaeumannomyces, Pythium, and Fusarium. He has elucidated the complex of Pythium and Rhizoctonia species that affect cereal cropping systems in the Pacific Northwest, especially in direct-seed (no-till) systems; described the biogeography of Pythium and Rhizoctonia spp. in eastern Washington; described and characterized previously unknown species and groups of Pythium and Rhizoctonia; and developed novel techniques for screening of cereal germplasm for resistance/tolerance to Rhizoctonia and Pythium. In collaborative studies, he has developed molecular techniques for quantification of 10 Pythium spp. and six groups of Rhizoctonia, technology that has been transferred to industry for commercialization. His research has made huge contributions to small grain producers in the Pacific Northwest through the development of new disease control strategies and new approaches to assess risks from soilborne pathogens prior to seeding. His work has also provided tools for breeders to begin to identify germplasm with resistance or tolerance to Pythium and Rhizoctonia.
Paulitz is recognized worldwide as a leader in the field of biological control and the ecology and management of soilborne pathogens. He is widely sought as a speaker at national and international conferences and has given more than 40 invited symposium or keynote talks at scientific meetings. He routinely conducts collaborative research with scientists in industry and academia. Scientists from all over the world visit his laboratory. He has authored or coauthored more than 90 peer-reviewed publications and 61 research publications, technical bulletins, and extension publications, including 15 book chapters.
Paulitz has served in leadership roles in The American Phytopathological Society (APS), the Canadian Phytopathological Society (CPS), USDA-ARS, and other organizations. From 1998 to 2000, he was junior and then senior councilor on the board of CPS and has been section editor of the Canadian Journal of Plant Pathology since 2000. He is presently the associate editor-in-chief of APS PRESS, and he served as a senior editor of APS PRESS (2005–2008). Paulitz also was senior editor (1994–1997) and associate editor (1991–1994) of Phytopathology. He served as a senior editor for Plant and Soil (1998–2002), was a chair of the multistate project W-147 "Managing Plant-Microbe Interactions in Soil to Promote Sustainable Agriculture"(2006), and organized the 2008 and 2009 Western Soil Fungus Conferences.
Paulitz has been instrumental in training a generation of students in plant pathology. At McGill University, he supervised 18 M.Sc. and four Ph.D. students and five post-doctoral researchers. He taught seven undergraduate, graduate, and diploma courses in plant pathology, mycology, and crop pest identification. As adjunct professor at Washington State University, he has supervised or cosupervised five Ph.D. and four M.S. students. Paulitz is deeply committed to mentoring future scientists. As part of the USDA-ARS's outreach program, he regularly teaches science modules in schools on the Colville Indian Reservation, 170 miles from Pullman. For his tremendous commitment to math and science education for groups of Americans underrepresented in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) professions, he was awarded both the Pacific West and the National Outreach, Diversity, and Equal Opportunity Awards for the USDA-ARS in 2008.
Paulitz's outstanding research record, his tireless service to APS, and his commitment to the education of current and future scientists qualifies him for selection as fellow of The American Phytopathological Society.

The New York Post this week pulled off a coup. In its Tuesday editions, it reported that potential Jewish donors for Mitt Romney were breaking for Michele Bachmann because they thought she was Jewish. That same day, as fate would have it, Bachmann was in New York speaking to a group of orthodox Jewish leaders.
The next day — Wednesday — the New York Post published a story on Bachmann's visit. It read, in part:
The same day The Post reported that some Jewish donors are holding back their contributions to GOP front-runner Mitt Romney under the mistaken impression that Bachmann is one of their own, the Minnesota congresswoman was addressing a Jewish group here.
A photo of Bachmann after the meeting carried this memorable caption:
SHALOM: Michele Bachmann leaves a meeting with Jewish leaders yesterday after The Post reported she's been mistaken for being Jewish.
One of the Jewish notables in that session was David Zwiebel, executive vice president of Agudath Israel, a national Orthodox Jewish organization. The New York Post quotes Zwiebel as saying, "She introduced herself," among other things.
And it's fortunate that the New York Post didn't quote Zwiebel on the integrity of its scoop on Bachmann being perceived as Jewish. Because that would have raised some troubling issues for the New York Post.
When the Erik Wemple Blog asked Zwiebel about all that, this is what he said:
In the most recent presidential elections, there was a much higher percentage of Orthodox Jews than reform or secular who voted Republican than the rest of the Jewish world, so I'd imagine that the Republican focus on Jewish votes would start from the base of people in the Orthodox Jewish community. Therefore, a lot of our constituents are people interested in the campaign and interested in seeing who the GOP nominee will be. I probably would have gotten an e-mail or a phone call about Michele Bachmann being a member of the tribe, and we haven't gotten a single one, so I was surprised to see that report in the [New York] Post. . . . I haven't heard that kind of talk at all. . . . So the story in the New York Post was somewhere between surprising and amusing.
Even so, the Bachmann-Jewish thing did furnish a good laugh line for the candidate's visit with Jewish leaders. Zwiebel says that the person who introduced the Minnesota politician said: "There's a report in today's New York Post that our guest, Rep. Bachmann, is Jewish. If they're saying that before this morning's event, imagine what they'll say after this morning's event."
