We Are Red Nation!
Rockets unveil marketing campaign for 2009-2010 season
The Red Rowdies should have no problem embracing this year's marketing campaign.
Jason Friedman
Rockets.com Staff Writer
Houston - We are Red Nation.
It is a bold statement to be sure; one intended to both unite the Rockets global community and build on the redification of the city of Houston which began in earnest a year ago with the launch of the Rockets enormously successful Get Red campaign.
With Get Red! we wanted to stress fan, partner and community-wide activation, explains Rockets Marketing Director Ken Sheirr, and we thought it worked in spades, especially in how it manifested itself during the playoffs when we embarrassed the Lakers in Games 4 and 6, in part because the crowds were incredible it was completely red and the loudest wed ever heard the building; the atmosphere was unbelievable.
The fans werent the only ones who embraced the call to arms players like Shane Battier and Aaron Brooks did as well with their red blazers which gained national attention when TNT analyst (and former Rocket) Kenny Smith donned a red coat of his own. At that point, it was clear for all to see: the Rockets were building something special, which is why the team has chosen to take an even bigger step along that red-paved path this year.
Get Red! really created this sense of community and gave fans the opportunity to be part of something, says Sheirr. We thought it made sense to continue in that direction and to reinforce this whole community component, so we moved forward with We are Red Nation, which is what we really think we are creating here this community at large which is passionate about and loyal to the Rockets, which creates a homecourt advantage, and is proud to be representing the city of Houston. Thats what this campaign is all about. Youre going to see statements about the fan community, by the fans.
Now that the campaign is underway, youll see signs of the Red Nation movement everywhere you go - on billboards, TV and, the internet. Stylistically, the campaign features an edgier look than fans have seen in years past. Rockets Creative Services Manager Jose Lopez explains why.
I wanted a grittier, more distressed street look, he says. With the paint splatter, its a type of graffiti youd see a fan do. Its as if you threw paint on a wall and took stencils to make it read, We are Red Nation, and thats why the font is also distressed itself. It all has this street look that makes it seem as if fans are doing everything they can to get people to join the movement.
Last but certainly not least, the Rockets felt the time had come to put forth a code of conduct for the people of Red Nation. So with a nod to our founding forefathers, the team drafted its very own Bill of Red, a document designed to help guide the team and the people of this burgeoning nation to greater glory.
We the people of RED Nation, in order to form a more perfect fandom, establish domination and dominion over all the land, provide for a suffocating defense, and secure the blessings of an awe-inspiring and intimidating homecourt advantage, do hereby ordain and establish this Bill of RED a document passed down from on high and now ratified by the House of REDpresentatives.
We the co-signed, united by passion and bound by belief, pledge allegiance to the following code of conduct:
1. Right to wear RED
RED is our color. It unites us, defines us and binds us together as bearers of the sacred flame of Rockets fandom. RED is the symbol of our passion and, as such, must be worn whenever possible and ALWAYS on game day.
2. Right to arrive early and stay late
Attending Rockets games is a privilege not a right and we vow to honor that privilege by passionately cheering our team from the opening tip to the final buzzer. Those who take the opposite approach (arrive late and leave early) forfeit the right to complain when showered with scorn and ridicule.
3. Right to free speech/freedom of expression (In other words: the right to get rowdy and be LOUD!)
This is not limited to hooting/hollering, screaming at the top of our lungs, chanting along with the Red Rowdies, high-fiving/hugging fans around us, or starting the wave! Screaming clever quips at the opponent and imploring fellow fans of RED NATION to do the same are encouraged. Style points awarded for creativity and anything mercilessly mocking all players named Kobe, Dirk or Mehmet.
4. Right to spread the RED
Not everyone is born into RED NATION. Therefore it is our responsibility as true believers to spread the gospel to those poor, unfortunate Rockets-less souls so they might join the movement and be saved by the transcendent power of the greatest team on the planet. This is made possible thanks to
5. Right to bear arms (laden with Rockets regalia, schedules and memorabilia)
By proudly displaying our true colors to the world, we are also equipped with the ability to proselytize, educate and inform the uninitiated about the rich tradition of our team and the passionate and dedicated nature of its loyal fanbase. We consider it our sacred duty to let everyone know that 22, 34, 94 and 95 arent random numbers they are divine gifts from the basketball gods.
6. Right to follow closely from afar
Whether at home or away, the Rockets deserve our unconditional support and we vow to provide it from the front row, the nose bleeds or the edge of our living room couch.
7. Right to ALWAYS believe
Under absolutely NO circumstances is it ever allowed to give up hope in our team. We are neither blind, delusional nor naive. Rather, we are resolute in our belief that a team and nation founded upon hard work, heart and perseverance will always find a way to prevail come what may.
8. Right to stay true to our team
RED NATION is not a bandwagon from which to jump on and off. It is a community of believers whose unwavering faith is impervious to the prattle of talk radio. Youre either with us or against us there is no middle ground. Our arms are open to all but this family is not for the faint of heart we call those people Mavs fans.
9. Right to embrace new ideas, new perspectives and new technology
RED NATION is an enlightened community filled with forward-thinking, open-minded citizens dedicated to the discovery of a better way of life, both for our team and its fans. Therefore we will leave no stone unturned and no technology (Statistical analysis, social networking, advanced scouting methods and more) unused in our effort to usher in a second golden age. Let the message be heard throughout Facebook and Twitter: The Rockets red glare is illuminating the world.
10. Right to dream BIG
Our NATION knows no limits. The word impossible is not in our vocabulary. Through the collective power of our imagination and sheer force of will we shall stride confidently down the path toward greatness, while savoring every single step along the way.
This Bill is our code, our foundation, our mantra. We hold these truths to be self-evident that all the men and women of RED NATION are endowed with certain unalienable Rights; that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Championships. The people have spoken. Thus it has been written and thus it shall be done.
We are RED NATION.

I was both excited and nervous for my trip to Berkelah falls. On one hand, I was concerned about my stamina and my decision to hike after a long-break-no-exercise-no-training-days. On another hand, I'm no athlete by gene, but friends had really helped me survive hiking.
The highlight of the Berkelah falls was reaching the 7th-floor and the trip would take us about 1.5 hours walking up the hill.
Needless to say, Berkelah is the toughest hill I've ever encountered. It was slippery. The route was small to the edge of steep fall into the gushing river.
In fact, for all my struggles, the feeling of accomplishment when reaching the top is amazing!
After all, I have had the best hiking buddies and delish nasi lemak in the entire Berkelah falls.

Aphids (blackfly, greenfly and whitefly) are sap sucking insects which rarely cause a problem for bonsai. Aphids are very easy to identify and easy to treat, so are no cause for alarm. They are more commonly spotted in spring/early summer.
Usually the first sign of aphids is shiny sticky patches on the top surface of the leaves. This is caused by honeydew which is excreted by the insects and drops from the leaves above (see photo 1).
Sometimes black sooty mould grows on the honeydew (see photo 2).
White skin casts can sometimes be seen on the top of the leaves (they can look like a strange insects but are just empty aphid skins). (See photo 3).
It is usually possible to see the aphids, they tend to colonise on the shoot tips (see photo 4).
We recommend that you spray weekly with a Plant Invigorator to prevent pests such as aphids developing.
Should you find that your do have aphid on your bonsai, please do not worry, simply purchase an insecticide from your local garden centre and follow the instructions. If you do not want to spray you can simply pick the insects off the shoots (keep checking that more do not hatch).
Scarid Flies...
Scarid flies are not uncommon on seedlings and house plants. They are grey/brown flies which live in the soil surface and do no harm at all. Keeping the soil surface barely damp (and not wet) will discourage them. If you find them annoying simply spray with an insecticide. Occasionally you may spot a larvae, it is small, long white and slender. These flies are not something to be concerned about; they are rarely noticeable after a few days.

New and growing spending models, such as mobile payment and online shopping, and emerging ways to travel, such as tailored tours, have helped bolster domestic consumption, pushing retail and food service sales to 1.4 trillion yuan ($202 billion) during the past weeklong National Day holiday, the Ministry of Commerce said in a statement on Oct 7.
Analysts said the changes in spending and travel show that the country's updated consumption structure will help boost overall national economic growth.
The average daily retail and catering sales were up by 9.5 percent year-on-year during that period, according to the ministry.
Sales of products that reflect an updated consumption structure, such as organic food, smartphones and smart home furnishings and vehicles, have registered fast growth, the statement added.
Sales of some ultra high-definition televisions with large screens surged by five times year-on-year during that period, and the sales of water purifiers, washer-dryer combinations, air conditioning and smart toilet lids grew 100 to 200 percent year-on-year, the statement said.
Trends such as internet shopping and ordering food online remained popular. During last week's holiday, the sales of some e-commerce platforms expanded by more than 20 percent year-on-year, and orders placed with online food sites monitored by the ministry jumped more than 50 percent year-on-year, it added.
Travelers also have pushed for higher-quality and more tailored tourism experiences, the ministry said.
"Chinese consumers, especially those born in the 1980s and 1990s, are increasingly pursuing travel experiences that are comfortable, tailored and individualized," said Neil Wang, president of consulting company Frost & Sullivan China. "The change in the demand side will stimulate the change of the supply side, and both sides will together drive the growth of the sector and the overall economy."
Online travel agency Ctrip said that during the National Day holiday, the number of travelers who chose tailored tourism services surged by 150 percent year-on-year, and their average spending per person exceeded 6,000 yuan.
The most popular overseas destinations for tailored tours included Japan, Southeast Asian countries and tropical islands, and domestic destinations like Lijiang in Yunnan province, Xining in Qinghai province and Guilin in the Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region.
"Tailored tours are an upgraded form of travel," said Li Fan, general manager of the domestic tour department at Ctrip. They include such things as an exclusive driver and tour guide. A traveler can even put together a tailored group, and the schedule will be highly flexible to satisfy the specific demands of the travelers, Li said.

Manaslu Circuit Trekking is one the most beautiful trekking in northwestern Nepal. Team Himalaya's Manaslu Circuit Trekking will take you to the rarely trekked region that combines mesmerizing mountain views, rich sub-tropical vegetation, mountain deserts, ancient villages and crossing the enthralling Larke Pass at height of 5,213m to reach the foothills of Mt. Manaslu, the 8th tallest peak in the world at an elevation of 8,163m. The Larke Pass, which is the highest elevation point of the trek, is known to offer the most dramatic pass crossing experience in Himalayas.
Manaslu circuit Trekking has been opened to trekkers only in 1992, the Manaslu region stands in stark contrast to popular trekking destinations like the Everest and Annapurna region. To this day, the region sees very fewer visitors, thus offering the daring trekkers with less beaten, remote and virgin trails that wait to be explored. A good amount of the trek involves hiking on a mountain trail and thus is under the capacity of any individual with sound health. However, the trekkers need to thoroughly understand the challenges of trekking at elevations above 3000m require is albeit challenging. However, Manaslu circuit trekking route is an ideal choice for individuals who want to explore the wilderness and remoteness of the Himalayas, far from the crowded trekking routes.
The 19-day-long Manaslu circuit trek begins with a 6-hours drive from Kathmandu to Arughat, Gorkha. We will gradually trek northwards through hilly villages like Soti Khola, Machha Khol, and Jagat to reach famous sub-alpine villages of Ghap and Lho. The path follows the ancient salt trading route to Tibet along the banks of Budi Gandaki River. After trekking for few more days through Samagaon, Dharamshala, and Samdo, we will cross the Larke Pass. On our return journey, we will trek down through Annapurna Circuit Trekking Route to reach Besi Shahar in Lamjung district, from where we will drive back to Kathmandu.
During the Manaslu circuit trekking, we will be rewarded with the stunning views of the Mt.Manaslu. Satellite peaks in the Nepal-Tibet border above the elevation of 6,500m and 7,000m will be visible from a very near distance. The views of these mountains are even more commendable from the top of the Larkya-la Pass. Another highlight of the trek is travelling through the Manaslu Conservation Area which was established with the motive of conserving the region in its entire wilderness. We might also have sightings of rare Himalayan animal species like Himalayan Thar, musk deer, snow leopard and red panda. While trekking, we will be able to explore and experience the lifestyle and culture of the local Gurung people. Since the region shares close proximity with Tibet, the people here still follow the very rare Tibetan Buddhism. It will be an interesting revelation to witness how these settlements have sustained and flourished in such trying conditions.

Grid computing and non-intentionality
Interesting conversation today with Xavier about the "grid computing" as a new social paradigm. According to the Wikipedia:
"Grid computing is an emerging computing model that distributes processing across a parallel infrastructure. Throughput is increased by networking many heterogeneous resources across administrative boundaries to model a virtual computer architecture. For a computing problem to benefit from a grid, it must require either large amounts of computation time or large amounts of data, and it must be reducible to parallel processes that do not require intensive inter-communication."
Why do I blog this? It's mostly the "data" part that interests me here. What this grid metaphor means is that everyone's a resource. Imagine if everything that is on your computer is connected to others: there aren't any intention about what you share (unlike, for example, certain P2P systems in which you choose what you want to share with others). This non-intentionality may have important consequences. The fact that you're a node and share stuff is an intentional act, unless this becomes a "norm" and that you're not even aware of it.

Ever since I went off to college, I discovered a new passion about myself. I love writing.
In elementary school, I was the worst writer in school-probably because I was forced to write about given subjects. In high school I had some classes that sort of helped me realize my passion, but they were "college prep" classes, so I thought actual college classes would be horrid. When I first came to college, it was for Biology, but God had a way of showing me what my talents were. I had to take a writing emphasis class my freshman year of college—and it changed my perspective. I realized that "Hey. I do like writing. I have a knack for this." So I officially declared myself as an English (emphasis in Literature) major. It included a lot of writing and reading. And I loved every stressful moment of it.
Now I can use my talents to serve Him. God has a way of putting me on the right track, but me being the wandering sheep I am, I got off that track….several times. But He never failed in calling me back. It's like when one get's off topic in writing, but then has to snap back to the main focus…that's how my relationship with God is like. I gotta stay focused.
My journey has been steep and rocky. It took me a long time to get to where I am now, and I'm probably only a third of the way there. It's like when I climbed Bear Butte in South Dakota. That was quite the journey…but that's another story…
As I write some of these short stories, poems, or essays I take on a new role, a new character. For the few whom know me, some of the things I write about "me" doing, seem out of the ordinary, and bad. I have to think about the character I am trying to portray.
I promise, almost all of my poems and short stories are completely fictional. Many of my essays I will publish are ones I wrote for college classes

Of course, it could all be a waste of time. Let me know what you think.

Remember you need to hand your completed team sheets in by 7pm tonight. 🤔
We now have 17 teams in the league.
Nuc - Grealish is a Legend
This is it, kick off imminent good luck everyone. 🤪😜😝😛😋
You lot will need loads of luck
Great to see you back in the League Nuc! I was hoping you'd join us again.
I've remembered why Fantasy League can be soooo frustrating at times. Shaw spent pre-season in a revolving door to my team 's defence. Was dithering right up until the deadline, when I plumped for 'out'. Noooo! Ha ha
I see Swotty Sam has started the first day back at top of the class and he's already vying to be Miss Rosie's pet by showing off his bench boost tactics.
Winesis - there's method in my madness... I thought it was really difficult to make a team I would want all season after the world cup and players being rested. I also HATE that chip... every time I plan it and save it for a double game week my STAR players are rested and I end up with about 10 extra points - so I thought I'd use it now combined with am early wild card probably.
Gutted I had Richalison in and out of my team over the last week. Same with Neves (who looks utterly brilliant).
Anyway, the best team on paper looks like the one with the worst name. *cough cough bongo
It's going to be emotional
I've took a 4 point hit already. Bottom of the league already but I think today's games might change that 😉🎉
I was dithering between just going all out for a squad that would take account of potentially missing World Cup players for the first couple of weeks (that so far don't really seem to be missing) and then wild carding, and trying to be more strategic for once and trying to sell interim players in a couple of moves to minimise hits. I ended up with a mix of both as I couldn't make my mind up ha ha.
No Sané! !! God Pep! You're a git
You should have done your homework Sam.
Homework??? I don't have a job. I look after the kids in the day. 1 of them still has naps. This is my fantasy football geek time.
Enjoy looking up at Icardi & Koke FC all season Bongo.
Winnie... it begins again! Get your own points total!
I've just experienced a full year now being a dad. Yeah the sleep times are great. Get your phone out and escape into the world of Bigfoot, villa, fantasy league, YouTube if it on quiet.
Wild card done! seems a bit early but I doubt if I could afford them by the time the prices go up. Got some better cheep subs now too.
So our 17 managers started the the season full of hopes and dreams of bringing football ⚽ home, but for most it will end in tears. 😢
Half of our teams where not in action on Friday night their managers joining Southgate and Martinez in the stands at Old Trafford on a scouting mission and naturally obligatory prawn 🍤 sandwiches.
Anyway down to business.
Stats taken from the Fantasy League. Salah the most picked player and also the most picked captain with DeGea most picked vice captain.
I suspect you know where this is going. 😉 Salah was in 12 of our teams and given the armband in 9 of them making him the top choice, and magic 💥Mo💥didnt let us down earning 16 sumptuous points for his ecstatic managers.
Joint runners up with 10 points Yubbys Firmino 👏👏👏and our newcomer Liam with Zaha.👏👏👏 Well played guys.
3 managers did indeed pick DeGea as their vice captain.
Joint winners this week with a stunning 74 points Uncle Tony with Mr Tee 👍 and his nephew Sam with Large Icardie and Koke 👍 Well played.
After one game :-
1. Large Icardi & Koke - Mr Tee
3. Agbonlahar United
4. 8 Daughters FC - Cubist Masterpiece
6. Winnies Warriors
Propping up the table although I am sure not for long with their fantasy league pedigree.
15. Aston Lilla
16. Grealish is a Legend
17. Kirkley Krusaders
🐴 Jesh and Kirkley Krusaders 🐴 An unusually bad start to the season for Jesh and his team.
Our first token played already Sam with his Bench Boost.
Crystal Palaces Wan-Bissaka was on 6 teams bench and I believe only Sam took advantage of his 12 points.
I was going to ask who would be the first to play their Wildcard? However Bongo has already announced he has for gameweek 2 which is amazing as he finished 3rd this week, will anyone else take the early Wildcard plunge.
Just wanted to say a big well done to Liam on his Fantasy League debut scoring the same points as Dad Oz 49 🤪
The World Cup players may be back in their teams for next week.
Off to a flying write up start Rosie! Thank you.
Well done Sam and Uncle Tony! Over 20 bench boost points Jose - the weasel cunning plan worked! Only 6 points behind you though so within nemesis distance already!
Glosses over fact that Yubby got off to a better start than me
A big well done to Liam on his debut! He already has me worried and I'm sure his Dad will be sweating buckets as he burns the midnight candle agonising over Ozstan Villa!
Sam, your Pep comment made me laugh!
Great report Rosie and well done Sam and uncle tony. 🍌
Haha jesh the mare.
Good week for me. I did my wild card and now i can't pick a side.
Get used to it Sis.
Oh thats right you already have 2017.
2017 was but a mere blip in the history of my mighty Warriors bro. Oh and being relegated one year too.
Get used to it? Never!
Heads off to open an extra large tub of comfort chocolate ice cream and have a little sulk.
Thanks for the great write up Rosie. Lots of tweaking of teams this week no doubt.
Thanks Rosie as always! The only thing me and my uncle discussed was having Salah as captain. Which you kind of feel obliged to do given his price. My team consisted of Mané and Richalison too until.until . the 11th hour where I changed it. It's going to be a tight campaign. But only the special one can expect to be top so early on and not feel the pressure to.stay there for 37 weeks.
You will be lucky to stay there one week more Sam. I'm breathing down your neck and the pressure will get too you.
I see yubbys gone for his usual all out defence that seems to work somehow?
Amazingly i still have 3.9 left in the bank

My skin looks better at 40 than it did at 39
A year ago, I washed my face with water. I scoffed at any elaborate skin routine. I used coconut oil and frankincense essential oil to moisturize and tone. I didn't think I needed anything else and my skin looked pretty good in my opinion. Fast forward to this morning: I washed my face with Beautycounter's nourishing cream cleaner. Then, I used the Countermatch serum, eye cream, and face lotion. I followed that up with their Dew Skin tinted moisturizer, a bit of volumizing mascara, lip gloss, and touch of concealer. And I couldn't be happier with the change! As I ease into my 41st year, I'm shocked to say my skin is looking even better than it did a year ago.
My eyes are less puffy and my skin tone is more even. I feel totally comfortable without any makeup. I think what has helped the most is diligent use of Beautycounter's new Countermatch Collection. I've been using it the past few months. Honestly, at first I thought it was ok. It feels super light, so in my mind, I wasn't feeling like it was hydrating enough. But, once winter rolled around, I realized my skin wasn't dry at all. And I noticed that the skin under my eye wasn't as dark. I also woke up looking way better! Ha! The night time recovery cream was doing something magical at night. What really sent me from really liking to LOVING the Countermatch collection, was when I traveled to Mexico over Christmas. I continued with the regimen there and was shocked to report that my skin looked just as great even though the weather and environment was completely different. As I read about Countermatch, I learned that this was because these products use something called bio-mimic technology. The composition of the products match the composition of the skin so it adapts to the environment and gives the skin what it needs at that time. Crazy, right? This is cutting-edge technology created by Beautycounter's Chief Technology Officer. In Colorado, it keeps my skin moisturized. In Mexico, it kept it moisturized without feeling oily.
As a 40 year old woman with normal to dry to sometimes oily skin, the Countermatch regimen works great. I highly recommend it to all of my friends and clients. If you're dealing with other skin issues, take a look at Beautycounter's two other skin care regimens: Essential Hydration and Age Defense. I've also used both of these as well and they work really well. If your skin is fairly normal, the essential hydration combo is gentle and effective. If you're very concerned with aging skin, the age defense is for you.

"Money Can't Buy You Love".
And so goes the Beatles song from 1964.
Now I doubt the Fab Five were referring to advertising, but that little ditty couldn't be truer today about advertising. As I discussed at 2015's Gen Blue Experience at Avery Fisher Hall, the collapse of mass media has had a profound affect on today's brands and consumers. Many of us have watched the popular AMC series Mad Men. The Madison Ave "creatives," fueled by Gin, coming up with a slick slogan or taglines that could reach millions of consumers on prime time TV (ah, the good 'ol days of three network stations). That approach carried the advertising world through the early years of the 21st Century.
While TV, print and a handful other channels were the focus of the past, today we are charged with delivering "the right message, to the right person, at the right time" on cable channels, Netflix, Hulu, YouTube, Social Media, Amazon, Google, Banner Ads and much more.As we enter second quarter of 2014 it is evident that media disruption and fragmentation has and will continue to challenge both marketing and advertising executives to think, strategize and execute at a higher, more demanding way than ever before.
And if that's not in itself enough to learn, marketers must also create an (often) entirely separate strategy tailored for generational influencers. In large part, the Millennial Gen (Generation Y) is driving much of this as the first real digital natives. With advances in technology, the Internet, and mobility, the Millennials have had instant access to better and more information like no other generation before them. This has driven an intuitive ability to detect when brands are fake, not truthful, or inauthentic. In fact it has been said that Millennials hate advertising, and will ignore branded marketing communication. So what's a brand to do? How do you "say it without saying it" when marketing, while building a "personal" relationship with the masses?
In addition to understanding the complicated media landscape, brands must present a genuine message or risk being called out. Yes, called out! When brands or individuals have a conversation today with a consumer or an employee, they are actually having a conversation with thousands of people at the same time.
I have to admit, having raised twin Millennials I've struggled with the many written descriptors for this generation. I've read that they are lazy, go home early, are entitled and don't care. I've not found that to be true at all. Here's my short list for describing the Gen Y persona:
- They will question everything. And even when you think they understand, they will seek opinions of complete strangers.
- They seek authenticity. If it's fake they will ignore you or even worse bury you.
- They're impatient. While you are still explaining, they've moved on. And they are NOT your built in tech-support so figure it out yourself.
- They are frugal, are debt adverse, but for the right brand they'll pay top dollar.
- They seek shared values, and in fact want to participate in the mission. We are starting to see discussion about Participatory or Collaborative Economy. (AirBnB is a great model.)
- Social Media is a defining medium. That's where it happens. Like or not, it is, so get comfortable with it. (see WhatsApp)
- "I can change the world." This is their motto, really.
Whether you're a global brand or a local proprietor, life is getting harder. There's a very influential wave of customers coming. A wave of important customers who are going to challenge your very existence. Why should they buy from you? And you better have a strong, sustainable…believable, answer to that question. And every employee or associate in your organization must be able to hold up that promise daily.
These are your future employees, future entrepreneurs and world leaders. So you better get comfortable in your own skin, get comfortable with the fact that they want to have a "participatory relationship" with you and your brand. One that requires trust demonstrated on a consistent basis.
Here are a few ideas that I have found to be helpful in reducing the complexity of today's millennial marketing landscape and allow your brand to be approachable:
- Truth. When it comes to defining your core brand truth, be true to yourself. Don't try to be someone or something you are not. This is the "why buy here" in your value proposition, and ultimately differentiates your product and/or service from the competition. This is the filter from which all communications, regardless of medium, are based. A great example comes from clothing maker Patagonia, who proclaims, "Build the best product, cause no unnecessary harm, use business to inspire and implement solutions to the environmental crisis."
- Listen. Yep, how's that for simplicity. Specifically, listen to what millennial folks are saying about your brand, as well as your competitors (very important!), online. If you want the real skinny, then nothing beats a third party website, social network, or blog to tell it like it is. There are some really nice (and free) tools to accomplish not only listening, but when appropriate, engaging customers in conversation. One of my favorites is Hootsuite, which allow users to set up multiple social media accounts in a dashboard view. Another simple, oldie but goodie, is Google Alerts. Yep, it's been around for years and still works. And while it lacks any type of engagement function, it has the scale of Google!
- Focus. Pick one, maybe two, Social Media platforms to focus your Brand communications. I know, you've been told to be on all of them, its part of your content strategy. Time to face reality, you and your brand can only be good at a few things. Determine what they are, and pick the best platform to listen and engage consumers (notice I didn't saysell).
- YouTube is the largest video-sharing website, and recently past cable TV in aggregated video views. Video = TV. In addition to being an amazing video platform, YouTube has strong SEO value and mobile platform support. There is no better way to tell your brand story!
- Facebook, by way of size, is a good default. It allows reach, and engagement if you listen. But it doesn't mean throw all your listings on Facebook, and sell!
- Google+ has an amazing layout, wonderful SEO value, and great Brands.
- Twitter is a really good listening platform, a great news site, and strong information network.
- What about Instagam you ask? It's a great millennial playground for brands, and doesn't have cultural limitations because there are no language limitations.
- Strategy, strategy, strategy. Social is 24/7 activity, it is not a part-time activity or one-time stunt. A plan of what to post on Facebook, pin on Pinterest, Tweet on Twitter or upload to YouTube does not make a social strategy. A good strategy outlines the direction that your brand should take and why it should take it.

Most ladies would be shocked to know that the average feminine devotes more than 60 hours of her lifestyle to the ordeal of shaving and waxing. Laser hair removal, while relatively pricey, will conserve you a fantastic offer of time and nicks on your legs, underarm, encounter, and bikini area.
I never attempted Vaniqa. It is a prescription cream that you use daily. More than time, it is supposed to decrease the number of new hairs and make the current ones thinner. Sounds good. Except that I have yet to satisfy one person who has been pleased with the outcomes. So you spend the dermatologist, purchase this prescription medication and you have no idea if it will function for you. Then in purchase to actually eliminate the hairs, you require to use 1 of the other methods. This provides up.On top of that, in purchase to maintain the outcome, that is if you do see improvement, you would require to use this treatment for the relaxation of your life. Personally, that is as well much of a commitment for me.
Generally, laser hair removal toronto is most effective on hair that's short and visible. This means a candidate will need to shave prior to the removal is carried out, but with sufficient time to have some stubble develop back.
14. Mobile Telephone Use – cellular phones can choose up bacteria anywhere you go which touches the encounter when you're utilizing it. Also, cellular telephones might trigger friction, pushing germs a lot deeper in to the skin.
Do not forget your fingers need to be pampered as well. Fingers are often overlooked in beauty treatments. That is why it is stated, if you want to know someones age, verify their hands. In addition to daily therapy with lotion or product, you should exfoliate your hands as soon as a 7 days.
Unlike shaving and waxing, laser hair elimination is considered to be a more permanent type of hair elimination, but the outcomes vary according to the affected person in question. As with all beauty treatments, do not select the apply which provides the lowest cost, as the therapy might not be of the very best quality.

I was in Dublin for 1 specific reason, to meet my mom! She had wanted to see Ireland forever, but our family couldn't ever settle on taking a family trip there.
Once I began my dream trip, we corresponded. She mentioned maybe meeting in Ireland and I agreed. I hadn't planned on seeing the country but then again, I hadn't planned on seeing most of the places I went.
Take a moment, pause, call your mom, tell her you love her. If you cannot do that think about your happiest moment with your mom. Mom's do so much for you and we, well I, probably don't tell them how much I care, how often I think about them.
In my life I'd gone from not being able to sleep at a friend's house across the street to flying to Europe and visiting places that made communication difficult, far far away from my mom.
I was fairly excited by the prospect of helping my mom fulfill a life goal. Our deal was she had a list of several places, cities she wanted to see. My job was to figure out how to get to these places via bus, rail or other means of transportation.
What was the most surprising was my mom adapted to my minimal travel, arriving with only a backpack, just like me. It was a lot bigger backpack but still, having seen many ladies on my trip with comedic quantities of luggage as well as the 1 piece of rolling luggage that was 2-3x as big as the lady carrying it, this was quite minimal.
It is a lot harder being a lady, all the clothes, garments, shoes and things that men, society expect women to have is astounding. I didn't ever feel under dressed despite having basically parachute pants that zipped off at the knees illustrated the level of expectations between men and women's fashion.
We met at the Spire and hugged! She did it, she had made it! Now what to do?!
Always good idea to lighten your load and drop luggage off where you're staying.
To my shock our place was on top of a pub, the Black Sheep. I'd passed by it and made a note to check it out. Now I had my evenings planned, just go downstairs!
My mom was quite accommodating as she doesn't drink alcohol but was ok with me taking her to the most special of breweries, Guinness!
This was one of the better brewery tours I've been on I have to say. In many ways, Guinness and Dublin are one in the same, at least that is what the tour infers.
I love the idea that at one time beer, wine, most liquids were shipped and stored in wooden barrels.
For sure the Guinness Brewery is one of the tallest buildings in Dublin affording one a stunning 360° view of the city, provided it isn't an overcast day. Like the day we were there.
At the end of the tour is a bar with free Guinness.
There is a process to pour a Guinness as it is very thick and can easily get heady. Begin pouring with the glass at an angle until it is a bit past half full, let rest for at least a minute. No matter how long the line is, you do not pour faster, they'd just line up pints on the bar to settle.
Once a pint was ready, then it would get filled up and have about a priest's collar thickness of white head. A keen system that always worked, I don't think I ever saw a pint poured straight through.
I also didn't hear anyone complain about how long it was taking for a pint. You waited for that pint.
It is also so far the only place I've seen their Dublin Porter on draught. The Guinness you think of is a stout.
The difference between a stout and a porter boils down, literally, to malts. They are both thicker beers than most people are used to in the US. Both styles, to me, are only drinkable when it is cool or cold out.
I don't know too many people who would reach for a creamy stout in 100° Texas heat. But in the cool, Irish environment, nothing's better.
We wandered all over the River area near the brewery until it was clear we weren't going to stumble upon anything cool.
Heading back into town, we stop into a pub to eat and discuss our strategy for the trip. It was a very nice spot, The Quays, though we were in search of a music pub.
There did seem to be much more of a focus on live music in Dublin than in previous places I'd been. Not so much for the digital playlists here.
Consulting a map, she listed the must visit cities and sights. Using my apps, I located the National Bus of Ireland, Bus Eireann.
The crazy fact is that you could bus from Dublin to the Cliffs of Mohr and back same day as it is only a 2 hour trip 1 way, coast to coast!
There was a place south, Wexford, that made crystal glassware she wanted to see. Cork was on the list, a whale watch to the south, Cliffs of Mohr, were all on the list.
I was excited to just be here! I hadn't planned on visiting the island so I didn't get to do much research on what to do, see. It was all new to me anyway. Plus it is cool to hang out with your parents.
Our destination discussion continued as we walked through the city back to our place where we connected to WiFi and did some real planning for the next few days.
I like to look at a map and decide on a location, then see if anything is along the way there, try to break up the trips into 2-3 hour bus rides if possible. I just couldn't see it being fun hoping a bus around 7am, drive to the west coast and then back around 7pm.
Our plan was set to check out Dublin College and Book of Kels tomorrow as well as Dublin Castle. I'd never heard of this book before so I was in for some learning.
We are all into different things, so I think it is very cool to check out what others are into, especially your parents. Hey they put up with you when you were a screaming kid, so walk with them, go on an adventure.
Around 10pm I headed downstairs to have a pint at The Black Sheep.
So far this is the only place I can think of that didn't have a Guinness on tap in Dublin.
As I was the only one at the bar I was able to talk to them about some beers they liked and so they suggested another stout they felt was better than Guinness.
'Quite literally you can get Guinness everywhere in this town and it is a great beer. We are just a place for people who may want to drink something else occasionally.' the bartender explained.
He gave me a Galway Bay Brewery stout that was similar to Guinness. It was good and besides, I'd already had my daily Guinness. Time to try something new!
It wasn't very busy at the bar so I was able to talk to a couple of bartenders about the Irish independent brewery scene. Sadly, it was about the same story as in the US.
Beer and liquor distributors controlled everything in Europe too. Another trend were pubs that looked old and authentic but were actually chains that were buying up historic pubs across the country.
It was similar to the Wal Mart effect whereby the pub chain would come in, charge lower prices as well as carrying a couple good beers. Once the family pub closed, up went the prices, out went the independent beers.
Pretty much things had come full circle in that if you were a brewery that wanted to sell beers, you also had to open and run your own pub to sell your beer. This was why BrewDog had so many pubs across Europe, it was the best way to guarantee freshness.
You see whoever controls the distribution and/or warehouses controlled the industry. You piss off one of these entities, well maybe your beer doesn't get refrigerated or maybe it doesn't get delivered regularly, but hey, we have this fine similar beer made by huge beer company and we are never out.
The free market is hardly free don't you see. Most things are manipulated in a couple of companies favor.
All night, we talked beer and they would slide a sample my way. I got quite an education on the emerging brew scene on the islands.

The trailer for "Bohemian Rhapsody", the Freddie Mercury biopic jointly directed by Dexter Fletcher and Bryan Singer, just dropped, and it jolts like a whiplash. You can watch the trailer by hitting the "play" button at the top.
Casting Rami Malek as the magnetic rockstar, Freddie Mercury, the film is described as a "foot-stomping celebration of Queen, their music, and their extraordinary lead singer Freddie Mercury, who defied stereotypes and shattered convention to become one of the most beloved entertainers on the planet." Much of the events are set at the infamous Live Aid concert, a "global jukebox" charity event and doubtless one of the band's most glorious, where they played their greatest hits, including the titular track.
Along with the trailer, 20th Century Fox also dropped an official key graphic for the film (see: to the right), showing Mercury towering against the De Lane Lea Studios in London. The film is written by Anthony McCarten (Steven Spielberg's "Darkest Hour") and stars Malek, Joseph Mazzello, Aidan Gillen, Ben Hardy, Mike Myers, and Lucy Boynton.
The film is slated for U.S. release on November 2nd. Us eager fans in the Philippines will have to wait five days when "Bohemian Rhapsody" on November 7, 2018.

Poet Visit- Monday 10th September
We have been lucky enough to be visited by poet, Paul Cookson, who spent the day with us in Sacred Heart. The day was enjoyed by children and adults alike.
He performed some of his favourite poems to us, which we loved joining in with, before giving us an insight into what inspires him and the basic techniques he uses to structure his work.
We then had the opportunity to work with Paul in our own classes; each of us produced a poem in collaboration with him, which you can find below. We hope you enjoy reading them as much as we enjoyed writing them!

I've 7Gb .sql backupfile. I've to import it to my working database(mysql).
I've done:
$ mysql -u <username> -p
mysql> use database <databasename>
mysql>source <path_to_.sql_file>
It almost took 3-4 hrs and gave an error
ERROR: ASCII '\0' appeared in the statement, but this is not allowed unless option
--binary-mode is enabled and mysql is run in non-interactive mode.Set --binary-mode
to 1 if ASCII '\0' is expected.
So, I've tried
$ mysql -u <username> -p --binary-mode
mysql> use database <dbname>
mysql> source <pathtofile>
Again, after 3hrs, it ended with an so many errors with some of them being
unkown character \n'. I think the error was repetitive. Initially I've tried opening the file to save it in
UTF-8 encoding but It's taking more than 3 hrs to open completely.
