You need to know what to do and how to go about mobile marketing your business for it to be successful. The process can provide excitement to your marketing as well. Done right, it can give your business plenty of exposure and attract more customers. Follow the tips below to ensure your mobile marketing campaign is successful.
Remember when mobile marketing that not every mobile device is the same and thus the content you develop needs to cater to the general field and not anything overtly specific. For instance: Some people have slower connections than others, while others have smaller screen sizes. Be encompassing and not specific.
Do your research. Understanding how mobile marketing works is the most important step to take before you get into it. Search for other marketing campaigns, and see which ones worked out well, and which did not. Having this information to back you up can put you on the successful track to marketing well.
Keep track of a customer's buying habits, and use those results. Personalize your messages to a customer based on their actual habits and you will find that people become more interested in your business. When you take the time to make a person feel important, they will become return customers much more easily.
Remember, phones are personal! Mobile goes beyond cell phones and internet. Subscribers are connected by texting, voice, mobile internet, and smartphone apps. There are things being added to the mobile environment to meet everyone's various needs, and you need to do the same. Your mobile campaigns need to be easily accessible, personal, and relevant!
Split-test your landing pages to see which one performs better. This is a great tactic to use in your mobile marketing campaign because it allows you to quickly put the better material out there. By creating two unique landing pages and then using HubSpot tools, you can perform an A/B Split Test and find out which page to go with.
When doing this kind of marketing, you can't go wrong by investing some money to ensure your website is well-optimized for mobile use. Designing a mobile site that is attractive and undeniably appealing is not an easy task. Leave this to the professionals if you doubt your talent at all.
Not any web tracker will do when you're trying to keep up with the results of your entire campaign. You need to make sure that you're using a mobile-specific type of software here to keep up with your data. Try different tracking platforms like Bango and Mobilytics to stay up to date with everything.
Make your ads suitable to small screens and slower speeds or they may not be viewed at all! Most mobile devices have tiny screens and data speeds much slower than a regular PC so design your mobile content to be displayed accordingly or else it may never reach its intended target!
Make sure to conduct a usability test before rolling out your mobile marketing campaign to your consumers. Ask friends, family, employees or all of the above to receive your messages, respond and ask for their honest opinion of the experience. This way you will make sure everything works to provide the best experience for your customers.
Keep in mind that those using mobiles may have a more difficult time navigating and browsing your website. Your mobile marketing proposal should be simple, and if it is simple on a computer, those using a mobile device will have an easy time viewing it.
Your mobile ad campaign must be cross-platform compatible, on every major device to maintain your customer base and their attention. If your ad only works on Android, then those are the only customers you will reach! If those with a Blackberry see a jumbled mess, your message is lost. Be sure to keep the compatibility, far reaching with every mobile ad.
Be adaptable! Make sure your mobile marketing campaign is compatible on different kinds of devices. Your campaign should look the same on a brand of smart phone device. Do not forget about tablets: perhaps you can adapt your mobile material to be displayed properly on a digital tablet. You will reach more people if your campaign covers several devices.
Ensure that you are covered in the legal element of mobile marketing. This doesn't mean you have to strap up a team of lawyers, but you want to ensure that you are taking the right steps to ensure that you aren't going to gain some sort of legal trouble through nondisclosure of full information.
Make sure your mobile marketing has a clear path to unsubscribing. There are legal ramifications to not having an apparent opt-out on every single piece of mobile and digital marketing, so develop your opt-out system at the same time that you are developing your subscription system. Each system handles this differently, but opt-outs can be done by clicking a hyperlink or by texting a word like 'unsubscribe' to a mobile short code.
Set goals for your mobile marketing plan. Put together a plan so you know how many messages you will send out each day, which people you will target with which promotion, and what promotions those will be. Setting goals allows you to track your success and to focus on what you want to accomplish so you will build your business.

Use your mobile QR codes everywhere you can. They are links to mobile devices, but the can be used in print advertising too. Any kind of advertising that your business produces should have your mobile QR code on it, even your business cards. Put it on your store signs, brochures, television ads, and catalogs.
Make sure that your website is mobile-friendly. Your mobile-friendly site should not be cluttered with graphics, and should only include basic but important information about your business that a mobile user can quickly get to. Mobile users do things quickly, and your site must display efficiently on their mobile devices if you want them to visit you often.
Compatibility is crucial. When starting a mobile marketing campaign it is essential that it will display correctly no matter which device your customer is using. There are loyal users of every mobile platform and focusing on only one device limits your customer base.

by Malcolm MacLean
News now from Toby Walker at Stockbridge Yacht Brokers that he's signed for sale the classic 49.29m sailing yacht Orion of the Seas.

Is it a cold, flu or whooping cough?
Your doctor is the best person to determine if your cough is caused by a virus (eg. influenza or the common cold), or a bacterial infection (eg. whooping cough). There are also other causes of a chronic cough and it is always best to consult your doctor.
Whooping cough does however have a few distinctive traits. These traits are most observable 1 to 2 weeks after first being exposed.
- Coughing fits that continue for long periods and are exhausting to the body. These coughing fits happen more at night. Also known as the 100 day cough.
- Gasping for breath after a coughing fit. They may make a "whooping" sound. This sound is where the name "whooping cough" comes from. Babies may not cough or make this sound—they may gag and gasp.
- Difficulty breathing, eating, drinking, or sleeping because of coughing fits.
- Turning blue (while coughing) from lack of oxygen.
- Vomiting after coughing fits.

Austin attorney Lonnie Roach has assisted clients across Texas with their long term disability (LTD) appeals. This is true of Houston residents, as well.
A client from The Woodlands suffered from back pain, depression and carpal tunnel syndrome. He had undergone an attempted lumbar decompression and fusion between his fourth and fifth lumbar vertebrae. This failed and was followed by a second surgery that attempted to fuse the third through fifth lumbar vertebrae. The second surgery failed, too, and the client's condition continued to degenerate. He was on constantly increasing pain medications. The Social Security Administration awarded him full disability benefits. Prudential denied his LTD benefits, even though multiple physicians declared him completely disabled. We appealed and got him a settlement.
A Dickinson client was denied Short Term Disability by Cigna. She underwent a neuropsychological evaluation which found cognitive impairments. At the suggestion of the neuropsychologist, she then underwent a Functional Capacity Evaluation which found physical limitations. Both of the tests, which are considered the "gold standard" for making disability determinations, found our client incapable of full-time employment. Her doctor described her limitations so as to include two hours of rest with every one hour of activity. These restrictions were indefinite. Although she could perform some functions, she was limited to part-time work and could not earn 80% of her indexed pre-disability earnings unless she could work at least 80% of a full-time schedule. There was no evidence in the record that she could do so. We fought Cigna when it denied her claim and were granted a settlement.
Another client, from Katy, suffered from Mixed Connective Tissue Disease and gastroparesis. Although her physician was an advocate of the client attempting to return to work, the restrictions he required were such that she remained totally disabled under the terms of the policy. According to a doctor of Principal's choosing, she would have to begin work at 11:00 a.m. and leave work at 3:00 p.m. She would additionally require at least two sick days each month. The job would necessarily be sedentary to light and, should keyboarding be required, the client would require accommodation such as a voice recognition system. Simply put, no employer could reasonably be expected to accommodate such extreme restrictions. She was awarded disability benefits from the Social Security Administration; however, Principal denied her LTD benefits. We were able to get them reinstated.
A resident of Montgomery worked in the healthcare industry before becoming disabled. She underwent a Functional Capacity Evaluation that demonstrated that she only retained sedentary capacity for activity performed above the waist and less than sedentary capacity for activity below the waist. Additionally, she could not sit, stand, or walk for any extended period. This residual, physical capacity was below that required to perform any occupation. She had been adjudged totally disabled by the Social Security Administration and awarded SSDI and required significant narcotic pain medication due to her objectively documented condition. This was problematic for her continued employment in any healthcare occupation, but Lincoln Financial denied her. We got her a settlement.
The former president of a company in Houston had been receiving disability benefits, and then was denied. The Social Security Administration concurred with his physicians that he was disabled from any gainful activity, much less his former occupation as president of a multi-national corporation. At the time of denial, over ten years after the initial disability determination, he was placed on a heart transplant list. The physician on whom Hartford allegedly relied to deny benefits stated that the client could not work at any occupation. Nonetheless, The Hartford denied his claim. After filing suit, we were able to get his benefits reinstated.

Cheap Hotels in Positano
Hotels in Positano
On the sun-drenched Amalfi Coast, Positano is a hilly enclave with a traditional Italian atmosphere. It started as a small fishing village, and started gaining popularity in the 1950s after John Steinbeck published an essay about it in Harper's Bazaar. Positano is also strongly linked with international arts and culture. It's said to be where the Rolling Stones wrote the song 'Midnight Rambler', and the backdrop for 1994 movie Only You.
Relaxing in Positano
Simply strolling around is the best way to see and experience the local area.
At the Church of Santa Maria Assunta, gaze up at the dome made of tin-glazed majolica tiles. The church also has a 13th-century black Madonna dating from the Byzantine era.
The steep steps up and down Positano's hills link the village to Montepertuso. The Thousand Steps, as they're known, wind through Positano – with incredible views of the coastline and out to sea on the way.
On the beach side of the village, sights are more accessible. Positano has two beaches, the popular Spiaggia Grande and the more secluded Fornillo. Both have beachside bars.
The Amalfi Coast
Many of Italy's main tourist attractions are on the coast, including the city of Naples and romance-filled Venice. With any Positano hotels as your base, you can explore to your heart's content.
The world-famous Amalfi Coastal Drive takes you the whole way from Sorrento to Salerno. It's a trip that can also be made by bus. You pass the volcano Mount Vesuvius on the way to the ancient city of Pompeii that it destroyed.
Italian dining
Fish and seafood are key ingredients in many dishes, as you'd expect from a coastal area bordering a major sea. The Tyrrhenian Sea is part of the Mediterranean Sea, and the region's specialities include spaghetti alle vongole (with clams) and pastiera napoletana, a ricotta-based tart with citrus.
An unusual souvenir item in Positano is the lemon. Lemons appear on painted silks and pottery, in hand-made produce, and in the popular alcoholic drink limoncello. You can also take a walk through the nearby lemon orchards.
The Amalfi Coast is also well known for its coffee culture. An espresso or capuccino is the perfect accompaniment as you sit back and gaze out to sea.

AIA Australia has enhanced its priority protection products to allow business owners to increase the level of cover they have more easily.
In a statement issued today, AIA said the new Business Safeguard Forward Underwriting Benefit (FUB) product will allow business owners to top up their insurance cover when they start a business or increase their equity holding in an existing business without undergoing health checks.
AIA Australia chief retail insurance office Pina Sciarrone said the new product was designed for time-poor business owners looking for a "flexible and simple" way to top up cover at different stages in the life cycle of their business.
"We are constantly looking at how we can assist advisers to grow their businesses by better tailoring products to meet the changing needs of their clients," Ms Sciarrone said.
"With over two million small businesses operating across the country, it makes sense for us to look at ways to better service the SME market.
"The Business Safeguard FUB option allows business owners to purchase additional cover that ensures their commercial assets are fully protected, without having to go through the extra administrative step of sourcing and submitting a health assessment," she said.
The life insurer added that customers who have made a TPD or crisis claim will have the option to purchase life cover up to a year after their original claim was paid without undergoing medical assessment.
"Having an accident or significant illness can often alert people to the fact that they need to have their family protected in the event that the worst happens, but health issues like this can also make it more difficult or expensive for consumers to access life cover," Ms Sciarrone said.
"Our new life cover purchase option ensures TPD or crisis recovery claimants will face no obstacles in getting the cover they need as simply and efficiently as possible."

2017 Fiat 500 60th Anniversary
The Italian brand celebrates six decades since the original 500 was launchedby Ciprian Florea, on
The modern Fiat 500 has been around for 10 years as of 2017 and so far it has done a great job keeping the original car's legacy alive. The small size and the vintage design help, but Fiat also launched several special-edition models that paid tribute to the first 500 over the last decade. Come 2017 and the Italian firm has developed yet another anniversary model, this time around to celebrate the 500's 60th anniversary.
One of the most iconic vehicles of all time, the Fiat 500 was launched in 1957 and the first unit was produced in the city of Turin on July 4. Fiat sold over four million examples until the car was discontinued in 1975, making way for the equally successful 126 model. The 500 nameplate was revived in 2007 and the second-generation city car became a success story too. Fiat says that the new 500, which is sold in around 100 countries, will reach sales of two million units in the first half of 2017. This is an impressive figure for a ten-year-old model in this day and age, and needless to say, it wouldn't have been possible without the legacy of the original Fiat 500.
Limited to only 560 units, the 60th anniversary model was launched at the 2017 Geneva Motor Show and goes on sale starting March, meaning it will hit the streets just in time for the day the first-ever 500 left the factory back in 1957. Let's find out what this limited-edition model is all about.

What makes the Fiat 500 Special Series special
The first thing that catches the eye is the two-tone. Called Dolcevita, it combines a three-layer white for the lower body and a pastel ivory for the engine hood, pillars, and the upper section of the fenders and doors. The two colors are separated by very thin grey and burgundy stripes and the entire combination gives the 500 an authentic vintage look. The city car also features chrome hood trim, just like the original car, chrome mirror caps, and vintage logo front and back, as well as on the B-pillars. The exterior package is rounded off by 16-inch, lightweight alloy wheels with dedicated "560" logos. The "560" stands for the 500 nameplate and the 60 years it is celebrating in 2017.

The vintage theme continues inside the cabin with a vinyl dashboard and a vintage logo on the steering wheel. The color combination is equally impressive, with the black dashboard featuring a burgundy fascia and white highlights for the center stack and the A/C vents on each side of the infotainment system. The steering wheel, the instrument cluster hood, and the arms rests on the door panels are also finished in white. The leather seats have ivory inserts and contrasting burgundy seams, while the black floor mats have white edges. Needless to say, the anniversary model feels like a nice, classy place to spend time in.
Unique features aside, the 560's standard equipment list includes a leather gear stick knob, a seven-inch Uconnect infotainment with Bluetooth, navigation, USB, automatic climate control, and rear parking sensors. Fiat also added the speed limiter and cruise control and introduced Apple CarPlay and Android Auto as options.
The vintage theme continues inside the cabin with a vinyl dashboard and a vintage logo on the steering wheel.
Moving over to drivetrains, the anniversary model can be had with any engine available with the standard 500. Options include both the gasoline 1.2-liter four-cylinder with 69 horsepower and the turbocharged, 0.9-liter two-cylinder with 85 horses. Fiat also offers the Dualogic gearbox with paddle shifters and Stop & Start function for increased fuel economy. Drivers who prefer diesels can also select the 1.3-liter turbodiesel MultiJet II rated at 95 horsepower.
The anniversary model is limited at 560 units and although pricing is not yet available, expect to pay more than a standard Fiat 500.
Press Release
At the 2017 Geneva International Motor Show, the Fiat brand will be showing its two identities, both of which stand side-by-side, forming part of an increasingly wide and complete range. The two worlds that characterise the brand, the functional and the emotional, are evoked by the symbolism of the stand and, in a practical sense, by the vehicles exhibited.
In 2017, FCA will be celebrating the sixtieth birthday of the iconic 500: the star of the show will be the special limited edition to mark the 60th anniversary, which will feature an exclusive look and unique contents including new two-colour paintwork and specific 16" alloy wheels. It will be joined by 500S, the more dynamic, male version of this Fiat icon.
The Swiss event will also witness the début of the new S-Design versions, a perfect combination of style and contents designed to meet the requirements of a dynamic, sporty clientele: this new image will be flaunted by the Fiat Tipo 5Doors and the 500X on the stand. Not to mention an appearance by the whole Tipo family: representing personality, simplicity and functionality with unbeatable value for money.
Exclusive details, uncompromising off-road performance and outstanding versatility: on board the new Fiat Fullback Cross pick-up, there is room for meeting everyone's requirements, whatever they may be. The spotlight will then fall on an exciting vehicle that treats the motorist to a true roadster experience, combined with an all-Italian style: the 124 Spider, with the new "Europa" special series, built in a numbered limited edition.
Personality and style are also at the top of the list for the Panda, Italy's best-selling car in its segment since 2012. The stand will host the Cross version, which crams all the functional features of the off-road vehicles in the category above it into just 370 centimetres of space, as well as the Natural Power, which reduces emissions while still guaranteeing a pleasant, comfortable driving experience. 500L is on show in the Trekking version in a two-colour livery underlining the model's crossover personality, reinforced by the Traction+ technology.
And last but not least, the stand will feature areas dedicated to Mopar and FCA Bank, both providing true added value for all motorists in the form of excellent products and services.
Fiat 500 special series to mark the 60th anniversary
There are dates which are destined to remain firmly lodged in our collective memory; moments which, in the short-term, or with the passing of time, can prove to be revolutionary. One of the dates which has undoubtedly managed to escape the anonymity often imposed by the calendar is the 4th of July, 1957. Indeed, this was the momentous date on which the "500" was first produced in Turin, the "big small car" which soon became the emblem of the concept of driving for the mass market. The figures linked to this success may be significant, but they are simply not enough to tell the whole story. Over 4 million vehicles have been sold, but there's more to understanding this car than that. Instead, the trick is to widen our perspective and pay particular attention in order to round up all the innovative features that the 500 has crammed into a space of less than three metres, not only with regard to the motoring world but in relation to society in general. Fifty years on, again on the 4th of July, Fiat used its popularity as leverage for accelerating towards the future with the 500 of the new millennium and in the first months of 2017 will break the record of two million cars sold. Another peaceful revolution on the roads of the world, a vehicle capable of combining what seem to be contrasting values: it is exclusive but accessible, it is elegant but fun, it is quinquennially Italian but is a global best-seller sold in 100 countries. Interestingly 80% of all 500s were sold outside Italy.
It is easy to celebrate a birthday if the birthday girl doesn't fear the passing of time and, instead always welcomes the chance to blow out her candles, dressing up in her glad rags and enjoying the occasion. And this is what will happen now in 2017, when Fiat celebrates sixty years of Fiat's global icon: for the occasion, the Geneva show will provide the stage for the launch of the special 60th anniversary series. This exclusive numbered limited edition pays tribute to the original 500 through a specific characterisation and the contemporary reinterpretation of some of the style details that made it famous, such as the vinyl dashboard, the vintage logo on the front, between the chrome spoiler and on the boot door and steering wheel, as well as the chrome finish on the bonnet. Exclusively available as a convertible, the Fiat 500 special 60th anniversary series presents brand new dual-colour paintwork evocatively named Dolcevita: Three-layer White for the body of the car and pastel Ivory for the bonnet and pillars. The grey and burgundy waistrail enhances this chromatic combination, whereas the colour chosen for the hood is grey. The style of this special series is enhanced by its many cool aesthetic details, such as chrome mirror caps, special 16" lightweight alloy wheel rims and a dedicated logo: 560. Here we truly have a brand within a brand, as the red "6" and "0" are contained in the last two figures of the 500 logo. This exclusive badge adorns the pillar and also appears on the chrome sill and the numbered limited edition nameplate. The Fiat 500 60th anniversary special series will be available for order from 9 March; the edition will total 560 cars, all with individual authenticity certificate, for sale on the main EMEA region markets with delivery from 4 July. The interior also presents retro details, such as the tubular elements of the seats in ivory leather with contrasting burgundy seams, which match the central part of the dashboard, and the bespoke dual-colour car mats. But the tribute to the past is only skin deep: in terms of technology, the 60th anniversary special series offers the very best of everything available today when it comes to technology and on-board comfort. Standard features include a leather gear stick knob and steering wheel with built-in commands, the 7" UconnectTM Radio Live touchscreen system with Bluetooth, satellite navigator and USB and AUX IN ports; 7" TFT, automatic climate control, fog lights and rear parking sensors. The MY2017 innovations are also present: Speed Limiter and Cruise control and, on request, the CarPlay and Android AutoTM system; this makes possible for users to access the main applications of their smartphones directly on the 7" screen of the UconnectTM system integrated on the central console.
With Apple CarPlay support, the smarter, safer way to use your iPhone in the car, drivers can get directions optimized for traffic conditions, make and receive calls, access text messages, and listen to music, all in a way that allows them to stay focused on the road.
The Android Auto integration allow to manage the compatible content and features on the device directly from the driving seat, getting directions, making calls, sending and receiving messages, and listening to music, always driving safely.
Rain & Dusk sensor, Bi-Xenon headlights, tinted rear windows and Beats AudioTM system repeat this impressive outfit. The selection of engines available on the 500 Sessantesimo is wide-ranging and complete, with two petrol engines - also available with robotic Dualogic gearbox and paddle shift - the 1.2 with 69 HP and the 0.9 TwinAir with 85 HP. In the combined cycle, this results in a consumption rate of 3.8 litres/100km. All engines are Euro 6, including the small turbodiesel 1.3 16v Multijet II 95 HP version. The vehicle on the stand will be a 1.2 69 HP, fitted with Stop & Start.

Roasted Chicken with Apricots (a favorite dish in Israel)
Serves 4
2 heads of garlic
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
1/4 cup chopped parsley
3 1/2 T. margarine, room temperature, or if preferred, extra virgin olive oil
2 T. lemon juice
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. fresh black pepper
1/2 tsp. paprika
1/4 tsp. cumin
1/2 tsp. Ancho Chili Harissa, optional
8 pieces skin-on, bone-in chicken (use your favorite cuts)
3/4 cup dried apricots
1 T. olive oil (use after chicken has marinated)
Salt and fresh black pepper
Paprika, to garnish
Preheat oven to 375˚F (190˚C). Place the heads of garlic in a baking dish and roast for 40 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool.
Cut the tops off of the heads of garlic and squeeze out the soft, sticky garlic cloves into a food processor. Add the cilantro, parsley, margarine (or olive oil), lemon juice, salt, pepper, paprika, cumin and harissa. Pulse a few times until a thick paste has formed.
Place the chicken in a baking dish and smother with the roasted garlic paste, making sure to push some of the paste under the skin of the chicken. Cover with plastic wrap and place in the fridge to marinate overnight (or a minimum of 6 hours).
Preheat the oven to 400˚F (205˚C). Remove the chicken from the fridge and allow it to rest on the countertop for 15 minutes while the oven preheats. Scatter the apricots around the chicken. Drizzle with the 1 tablespoon of olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Cover the top of the dish with tinfoil.
Roast for 30 minutes. Remove the tinfoil and continue roasting for an additional 15 to 20 minutes. The internal temperature of the chicken should reach 165˚F (75˚C).
Turn the broiler to high. Sprinkle the chicken with a bit of paprika and leave under the broiler to crisp for about 5 minutes or until the skin is golden brown.
Let the chicken rest 10 minutes before serving.

Think you know everything about Bruce Lee movies? Download this FREE Guide and find out! Our Bruce Lee Movies List: Little-Known Trivia From Bruce Lee's Pictures
You could make an argument that the film was politically correct 20 years before it was politically correct to do so. However, having a black, a white and an Oriental (or by today's PC terms, an African-American, a Caucasian and an Asian) hero working together was a way for Warner Bros. to appease the demographics and a tacit admission that an Asian lead still wasn't plausible. Find out what Enter the Dragon co-star Jim Kelly (the African-American Dr. Craig D. Reid is referring to) had to say about his experience working with Bruce Lee in a new FREE download! When the film came out, Westerners had no idea about the pedigree of the Hong Kong cast. Shiek Khan had done more than 400 films, and most of them were martial arts movies that featured him as the villain. And with 18 films under her hapkido black belt, Angela Mao Ying was attaining cult status as a kung fu heroine, so the fights she did in Enter the Dragon were a walk in the park for her and her Vietnamese karate champion co-star, Bolo Yeung, a veteran of 28 kung fu films. By 1973, Sammo Hung had fought in 42 kung fu films and had been the head martial arts instructor for 17 of them. It's impossible to deny that Enter the Dragon is a great film, but the fights are very Hollywood. Although I respect John Saxon, he did not possess the martial savvy to fight convincingly against Bolo Yeung. There are also problems with the choreography, such as the dungeon scene when Bruce Lee is flexing his back while trying to open the elevator doors. He suddenly steps, turns around and is accosted by a handful of attackers. Talk about close-up — you can't see what anyone is doing, and a bad guy falls in the opposite direction after Lee throws his last sweeping backfist. Also, Lee's handspring and flip after the film's beginning fight scene with Sammo Hung were not performed by Bruce Lee but by Lam Ching-ying, who found fame with his one-eyebrowed priest character in the Mr. Vampire films. Then there's the final Hollywood glitter mirror room fight between Han and Lee. It has always been funny to me that director Robert Clouse never re-shot the scene when Lee throws the coat stand into the mirrors and no mirror breaks. A person could argue it shows how tough the mirrors are, so when Lee breaks them with his hands and "feet" (a hand in the shoe on close-up), we can feel his power. However, it's an awkward-feeling moment, though it is quickly replaced when Lee does his patented hunchbacked creeping walk around the mirror set. Bruce Lee's daughter, Shannon Lee, once told me that she remembers often looking at the spear from that final Shiek-a-bob shot resting in the corner of her home as a child.

The irony about Bruce Lee's career and stardom in the West is that they came together at the wrong place at the wrong time. In 1972, the United States was in the middle of the Vietnam War, and anti-Asian sentiment had not been so high since World War II. Each week, racial tension was finding a new way to twist the psyche of a country floundering in gas lines and cold war. Traditionally, whenever the United States was at war, Hollywood would create characters and storylines based on the heroic efforts of the American soldier, trying to use films as a way to boost the country's morale and confidence that the troops were righteously defending the realm against the evils of the world. But during the Vietnam War, America was in no mood for war heroes. Furthermore, when you look at the five top-grossing films in descending order from 1972 — The Godfather; The Poseidon Adventure; What's Up, Doc?; Deliverance and Deep Throat, with the brunt of the Academy Awards going to The Godfather and Cabaret — it was evident that the definition of the American cinematic champion of justice was undergoing a huge transition away from the glory of riding off into the sunset. Additionally, keep in mind that back in those days, to most Americans, someone who used their feet during a fight was considered a sissy. So for all intents and purposes, it was not only the wrong time for any Asian actor to make a mark in Hollywood, but it was also the wrong time for the hero to win a fight by kicking. Yet Bruce Lee came along, and with his dynamic facial contortions, rapid-fire punches, greased-lightning kicks and high-pitched phoenix screeches, he single-handedly gave Chinese martial arts cinema legitimacy and the Chinese people an identity. Bruce Lee has done more for spreading the word of martial arts throughout the world than anyone else in history. He was also the first martial artist to make mainstream the concept of cross-training and combining the best attributes of many martial arts into one. One neat thing about watching Enter the Dragon (and in fact, all Bruce Lee movies) is being able to recognize many of the Chinese faces in the background — faces that are famous and recognizable to Chinese martial arts cinema fans. (Yep, Jackie Chan dies twice in the film.) I still don't know who the laughing guy was in the background after Lee kicks the same guy four times (similar to Bruce Lee kicking Chuck Norris in Way of the Dragon) in the final disorganized courtyard brawl.

Adam: That little thing is what you guys have been working on the past 5 years? (Chase nods) Your genious is fading young Chase!
Chase: There it is.
The Incapacitator: Wow... It's beautiful.
Chase: Yeah, I know. Who needs a girlfriend when you have gadgets? (laughs) I-I mean, it's very shiny. Uhm, by the way, I never caught your name.
The Incapacitator: How rude of me. It's... (blasts Chase) The Incapacitator!
(In the training area)
Adam: Great work you two. When both students are completely passed out, I know I've done my job. Alright, you guys are up next. What are you names again?

Donald: What happened?
Chase: I was showing the transponder to a potential buyer...
Donald: You brought a complete stranger in here?
Chase: He blasted me with some kind of energy force.
Donald: Where's the transponder?
Leo: He must've taken it.
Donald: Chase, what were you thinking?!
Chase: Oh, I don't know! You made a deal without me, so I was gonna make a better deal without you!
Leo: We need to find the guy who did this.
Chase: It wasn't just some guy. That energy blast wasn't human.
Adam: Okay, but what was he. Bionic, an android. (gasps) What if he's an evil spirit from a galaxy far away?! A space ghost!
Bree: So we don't know who we're dealing with or what he's capable of.
Adam: Hey Franks!
Kaz: Howdy teach. Oh, hey I wanna ask you, I know I have all the bionics, but if I wanted more of the bionics, where would I go for that?
Oliver: Yeah, like a room, a copy, maybe a bionic vending machine.
Adam: I wish, but no one listens to me.
Chase: Adam, who are they?
Adam: Oh, these are our new students, this is Frank and uhm.. (laughs) I forgot the other guys name.
Bree: We don't have any new students.
Adam: We don't? Wait a minute. (sniffs then gasps) Aha! I should have known, that's Bob's jelly, tuna shirt.
Oliver: Look, I can explain everything. But Frank, you'd probably do a better job, so you go ahead.
Leo: Who are you guys?
Chase: They're intruders! (walks towards Kaz and Oliver)
Bree: Too bad, this one's kinda cute. As far as intruders go.
Chase: I bet they're with the guy who stole the transponder! Where is he? Where is the transponder?
Oliver: Transponder? No, no, no, Kaz was just trying to–
Adam: Get them!
Tecton: Get away from them.
Kaz: Tecton!
Oliver: Granite, Gamma Girl!
Adam: Guys? A surprise costume party? It's not even my birthday!
Bree: What's going on?
Chase: I don't know.
Oliver: What are you guys doing here?
Tecton: We've been tracking the incapacitator. His infrared energy led us here.
Leo: (laughs) Look superboy, I don't know what movie theatre your mom thought she was dropping you off at, but you're in the from place. (drawns energy from one of the computer consoles)
Tecton: He's got energy transference, just like the Incapacitator. (blasts the team with wall of energy)
Adam: Oh yeah, two can play that game! (uses his blast wave)
Kaz: Yeah, he definitely did not get that out of a vending machine.
(Adam starts to fight Tecton, Bree fights Gamma Girl and Chase fights Granite)
Leo: Hey, rock guy! This one's for you!
(Leo attacks Granite, Granite throws Leo across the room)
Oliver: Did you see that?
Kaz: Yeah, you won't see that in Amsterdam. (laughs) Oh no. (sighs) I left the wormhole transponder in my pants.
Oliver: Okay, I'll come with you, but please, don't ever say that again.
(Kaz and Oliver run away)
(Gamma Girl shoots Bree down, Bree runs around her, then Gamma Girl blasts her again and is about to take her out)
Bree: Adam, a little help?!
(Adam uses his lasers to block Gamma Girl's shot)
(Adam fights Tecton again, Bree kicks Gamma Girl down, Adam throws Tecton and Granite is about to attack Adam, but Leo quickly takes his stick)
Leo: Let's see how tough you are without your little stick.
(Granite raises his hand and the stick flies back to him)
Leo: Alright, that's pretty tough.
(Granite crumbles, Chase leaps and hits Adam to the ground)
Chase: ...Okay...
(the monitor turns on, showing Donald)
Donald: Guys, help!
(everyone gets up)
Leo: Big D!
Donald: Get up here, quick!
Tecton: Who's that?
Bree: Our father!
(Incapacitator shows up behind Donald)
Adam: Who's that?
Chase: That's the guy who stole the transponder.
Tecton: That's the Incapacitator. Wait, you guys aren't working for him?
(In the Mentors Quarters, Incapacitator attcks Donald)
Donald: No! What are you doing?
The Incapacitator: Making my own retina scan.
(makes copy of Donald's retina and opens transponder box.
Donald: You'll never get away with this.
