Gucci Group Award, created to recognize "personalities outside the movie industry who have made a remarkable artistic contribution to film over the past 18 months." The most prominent among the nominees is Australian singer/songwriter Nick Cave who recently moved into screenwriting; The Proposition, which he scripted, has received world-wide acclaim. In addition to Cave and two others, Helena Christensen (!) is nominated for her acting work in Allegro, as are Douglas Gordon and Philippe Parreno for their direction of the innovative soccer doc Zidane: A 21st Century Portrait.
The winner will be announced on September 8 "during a gala ceremony held in the 14th century Palazzo Ducale on the Piazza San Marco." Ooh la la! Needless to say, all the attendees will be impeccably dressed.

After the lip-sync scandal (as ridiculous as it sounds) at President Barack Obama's inauguration, singer Beyonce had a point to prove.
And prove it she did.
At a press conference on the Super Bowl halftime show, Beyonce responded to questions about the inauguration, saying she felt better performing to a prerecorded track because of the weather and lack of a sound check, among other reasons.
Any way, check out Beyonce singing the "Star-Spangled Banner" at the press conference.

Mississippi Democrats said while they're thrilled America chose to give President Barack Obama four more years, they wish our state had been one of those that propelled him to victory. The Magnolia State has long been a Republican strong hold in presidential elections. Democrats said the launch of Project 1876 could create a very different outcome four years from now.
At the Harrison County Democratic Headquarters, they were not only savoring the President's victory Wednesday, but also planning for 2016 when they want to see a Democratic candidate carry Mississippi.
"I'm going to be optimistic and say one day we will," said Democrat Dianne Kirk. "Because I know we can but it's just going to take a lot of work to get that across."
A map shows how most of Mississippi's counties were won by Republican candidate on Tuesday. Democrats hope to change that with the launch of Project 1876, that is the number of voting precincts in our state. The community organizing program will build ongoing relationships.
Joe Irvin, Harrison County Democratic Campaign Committee Chair, said, "We'd like to get organizers in those precincts and start now to really organize Mississippi. We'd like to disseminate the Democratic message in those communities."
"We'd like to begin now to develop a list of a volunteer database. We'd like to create an army of Democratic potential voters. We don't want to wait until right before the election. We want to start now," said Irvin. "The time to engage people is not six months before the election. I think it's too late then."
In the quest to give President Obama a Democratic successor, party members said they need to get their message out.
"We strongly believe that if you look at the issues that Democratic party stands on we're a state that would benefit from Democratic leadership," Irvin said. "When you look at issues like Medicare, Medicaid, the Democratic party has a much stronger position. When you look issues that affect women like equal pay and the right to chose and so forth, I think we can persuade Americans in Mississippi to vote Democratic."
Democrats said they realize turning Mississippi from red to blue won't be easy but they said are up for the challenge.
To get an idea of the challenge Democrats face in South Mississippi:
Hancock County
Romney 12,859
Obama 3,859
Pearl River County
Romney 15,836
Obama 3,813
Harrison County

Social capital: A rural perspective
- Client:
- Defra
- Start date:
- January 2009
- Completed:
- November 2009
This project goes beyond headline statistics relating to social capital in rural areas and looks in more depth at differing experiences of rural social capital.
Our research on social capital and place has been published. The study, which contributes to Defra's programme of rural research, explores placed-based social capital (social networks, values and norms) from the perspective of people living in both rural and urban areas. It contains a number of novel findings that are of particular relevance to current debates around 'localism' and 'big society'.
Background and objectives
This project contributes to Defra's programme of research designed to provide a more nuanced understanding of the needs of rural people and communities. The research was designed to go beyond headline statistics relating to social capital and quality of life and to deepen understanding of different experiences of social capital within and between rural and urban places.
This project contained an extensive piece of primary research employing Q methodology. Q uses both qualitative and quantitative tools to systematically explore subjective structures, attitudes and perspectives from the standpoint of the research participants. The method is designed to reveal both individual responses and patterns of shared understanding. Q was used within the following overall methodology:
Phase 1: Review
• Scoping, preliminary literature review and analysis
• Expert workshop with 15 experts from the fields of social capital and rural research
• In depth literature review, analysis and interpretation
Phase 2: Fieldwork
• Development of fieldwork materials
• Preliminary semi-structured interviews
• Pilot study
• Selection of case studies
• Original fieldwork using Q methodology in eight case study locations with 96 participants
Our research produced findings which led us to ask a number of challenging questions about the role of social capital in the development and delivery of policy - an issue of particular relevance for current debates around 'localism' and the 'big society'.
In particular, the implications of our findings led us to question those policies which aim directly to engineer 'more' of a 'better' kind of social capital through focussing on the 'formal' community. This questioning encouraged us to consider the potential of policy interventions aimed at providing opportunities for people to develop their own social capital as they see fit.
The report argues that policy has the potential to influence place-based social capital, but largely indirectly and in particular through making it more attractive for residents to walk around the places where they live and to spend time in public and other shared spaces in their local areas. Such policies could provide the 'friendliness infrastructure' that our findings suggest is needed to foster widespread and diverse place-based social networks and 'community spirit'.

Acid Reflux Disease (GERD) (cont.)
Acid Reflux (GERD) Surgery
Surgery is never the first option for treating GERD. Changes in lifestyle, diet, and habits, nonprescription antacids, and prescription medications all must be tried before resorting to surgery. Only if all else fails is surgery recommended. Because lifestyle changes and medications work well in most people, surgery is done on only a small number of people.
The operation used most often for GERD is called fundoplication.

The Effingham County Sheriff's Office put their focus on teen drivers on Saturday.
The Traffic Enforcement Unit held two Georgia Teens Ride with Pride courses at the Effingham County courthouse. The course's goal is to help parents and new teen drivers, ages 14-16, learn what they need to do during the 40 hours of supervised practice driving time.
"The Teen Pride class is important for teens to attend with their parents, so we can educate both teens and parents on how to become a better driver, a safer driver, and a more responsible driver," said Kathy Witherington, Deputy, ECSO.
The Effingham County Sheriff's Office is one of a few agencies in the state of Georgia who have certified deputies that can host Georgia Teens Ride with Pride courses.

Albert Frederick Mummery, (September 10, 1855 to August 24, 1895), was one of the great mountaineers during the late nineteenth century, dominating British and alpine climbing for 20 years. Mummery was a bold visionary climber who pushed the ethic of climbing without mountain guides, putting up many classic first ascents in the Alps and becoming one of the first climbers to attempt an 8,000-meter peak.
Mummery was Passionate about Climbing
Albert Mummery at first glance appears to be an unlikely climber. Photographs of Mummery show a fine-featured thin man with a high forehead and thick wire-frame glasses dressed in a Tweed coat and vest with a high-collared white shirt and tie rather than a rough-and-tumble grizzled mountain man in worn rustic garb. Indeed, Mummery was a somewhat frail child with a weak spine who even as an adult was unable to carry heavy packs in the mountains. One of his colleagues remarked, "He could not carry heavy loads – he simply had to go fast and light." While he was not athletically inclined, Mummery compensated for any shortcomings by having a passionate love for mountains and climbing. He also possessed an ideal climber's body-type with a tall skinny build, long arms with a positive ape-index, and massive hands.
Visited Matterhorn as a Schoolboy
Mummery was born and raised in the seaport of Dover on England's southeast coast. He came from a prosperous family in the tanning business and his father was mayor of Dover, allowing him to pursue academic studies as well as climbing. After visiting the Swiss Alps as a schoolboy, Albert Mummery was smitten with mountains. The image of the Matterhorn glimmering high and inaccessible in the moonlight stayed with him until he returned in 1874 at age 19 and repeated Edward Whymper's daring route up the Hörnli Ridge.
First Ascent of Zmutt Ridge
Starting in the late 1870s, Mummery, accompanied by various guides, did many first ascents in the Alps, including the first ascent of the Zmutt Ridge on the Matterhorn in 1879. Mummery and his three companions bivouacked at the base of the red, huddling under blankets and drinking their provisions, including cognac, beer, and red wine. The next day they climbed the ridge and descended the Hörnli Ridge.
First Ascent of Col du Lion
Albert Mummery did many more climbs in the Alps over the following years, including the impressive first traverse of the Col du Lion with guide Alexander Burgener in 1880. The pair swapped leads up a steep ice gully until Burgener broke his ice axe. Mummery sent his up the end of the rope but when Burgener threw the rope down, it snagged on rocks so Mummery had to solo up tiny steps chopped in the ice to free the rope. Later that summer they did a new route on the Grands Charmoz, climbing and descending from Chamonix in a fast 14-hour day. Upon returning they ran to the railway station and took the train to Zermatt, where two days later the pair climbed the Furggen Ridge on the Matterhorn, with a finish up the Hörnli Ridge.
Other Notable Alpine Climbs
Mummery's other notable Alps first ascents include the Dürrenhorn, Teufelsgrat on Täschhorn, Dent du Requin, the West Face of the Plan, the first guideless ascent of the Brenva Face on Mont Blanc, and the now-classic Aiguille du Grépon with its classic Mummery Crack. The only photo of Mummery in climbing action is on this namesake crack. Albert married Mary in 1883, who was also a climber, and he often climbed with Mary and her friend Lily Bristow, who took the Mummery action photograph. Bristow was probably the leading woman climber at the time, usually leading pitches on her climbs. Bristow and Mummery's climbing partnership ended in 1893, probably at Mary's insistence.
Climbs in the Caucasus
In 1888, Albert Mummery began exploring the Caucasus in the wilds of southeastern Russia, a wild and remote region of high mountains including Mount Elbrus, highest mountain in Europe. Mummery and guide Heinrich Zurfluh traveled eight days by train and then another three days on ponies to a base camp at Bezingi. They explored the mostly unmapped range and settled on attempting 17,074-foot (5,180-meter) Dych Tau, the highest unclimbed peak in the Caucasus. The pair climbed icy couloirs and then worked up a steep ridge of crumbling rock to the lofty summit.
Mummery was a Modern Climber
Albert Mummery, the precursor of the modern alpinist, not only attempted difficult technical routes and first ascents but also climbed often without guides. He wrote of an ascent of the Charmoz: "This time we were without guides, for we had learnt the great truth that those who wish to really enjoy the pleasures of mountaineering must roam the upper snows trusting exclusively to their own skill and knowledge."
Small Expedition to Himalayas in 1895
In June of 1895, Albert Mummery went to the Himalayas in central Asia with only two other climbers, Norman Collie and Geoffrey Hastings, in a bid to climb a high mountain in today's sparse lightweight alpine style with no supplemental oxygen, a small climbing party, and no fixed ropes or camps. Mummery's lack of knowledge, however, of the world's highest mountains and their particular and dangerous challenges doomed the expedition. Mummery drastically underestimated the difficulties of Himalayan climbing, viewing them as just mountains higher than the Caucasus and the Alps.
Attempted to Climb Nanga Parbat
The team's objective was the first ascent of 26,660 foot (8,125-meter) Nanga Parbat, the ninth highest mountain in the world. The mountain was high, accessible, and impressive. Mummery appears to have viewed it as merely a larger version of Dych Tau. After exploring different aspects of the mountain, the party settled on attempting the Diamir Face. After reaching about 20,000 feet, the party retreated with altitude sickness, although Mummery did fine. Collie wrote, "…Mummery never felt the least fatigue. He led the whole way—sometimes in deep powder snow; sometimes he had to cut steps for nearly an hour at a time… Certainly that day the rarified air had not the slightest effect on him."
Mummery Dies in Avalanche
After failing on the Diamir Face, Mummery decided to attempt an easier route from the Rakhiot Valley. To reach the upper Rakhiot Glacier, the 40-year-old Mummery set out with Raghobir Thampa and Goman Singh, two Gurkhas, on August 24, 1895 but disappeared. It is thought that the three, the first recorded climbing fatalities in the Himalayas, perished in an avalanche. Their bodies were never found until the 1990s when a climber found a boot with a foot bone inside that possibly belonged to Albert Mummery.

The old Sioux City bus station, which the Art Center uses as a learning center will be torn down.
The land will be turned into a park and the sculpture called 'Sioux City' will be displayed at the corner of 3rd and Pierce.
The sculpture known by many know as the 'French Fry' sculpture was put into storage in 2006.
The project will cost about six-million-dollars and is part of a larger plan to enhance the art center's campus with several large art projects.
"So whether you are leaving or coming on Nebraska street or Pierce you will see and be engaged in a beautiful display of public sculpture, outdoor sculpture and it will make the campus much more livelier and become a symbol of our community," says Al Harris-Fernandez.
The Learning Center will be rebuilt in a few years between where the sculpture will be and the art center.

Conversational Cupcakes
- Contest Photo by: Liamclareowenaidan
- Category: Cupcakes
1/4 c vegetable oil
2 eggs
1/2 c apple sauce
1/2 tsp vanilla
1/2 c sugar
1 c flour
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 c cocoa
1/4 c milk
1/3 cup softened butter
1/3 cup light corn syrup
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp salt
1 lb sifted powdered sugar
Mixer, cupcake pan, rolling pin, heart shaped cookie cutter, paint brush, dye.
How to Make
Preheat oven 350. Place 6 cupcake liners into a cupcake pan. Beat oil and eggs for 2 minutes. Add apple sauce, vanilla and sugar and beat 1 more minute.Whisk together flour, nutmeg, salt, baking soda and baking powder. Add dry ingredients to wet and mix just to combine. Fill pans about 3/4 of the way full.Bake 24 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
In a large mixing bowl, blend the butter, corn syrup, vanilla and salt on medium speed with a paddle attachment until smooth and well-combined.Add the powdered sugar and mix on low speed, slowly turning up the speed to medium until well-combined. The mixture will stick together in the bottom of the bowl and be smooth to the touch. You can add the dye now and knead it through. You may want to wear gloves because the dye will get on your hands. Roll out thin and cut with a heart shaped cookie cutter. The heart should be a little bigger than the circumference of a cupcake.
When the cupcakes have completely cooled you can frost with some prepared jam and place the fondant hearts on top. Use your watered down dye and water to paint on the words.
Home Made for the Holidays
- Avoid clutter. Keep the background simple -- your cupcake or sweet treat is the star!
- Daytime, natural light is best. If your area is bright enough, try taking the photo without the flash.
- Upload a horizontal photo. If you crop the image on your computer, make sure you keep a landscape 4:3 aspect ratio.
- For best results, make your image 1200x900 (or "save for web").
- With a digital camera, you can take as many photos as possible and choose the best one. Have fun!

Blue Bombers fall behind early, can't climb back
LAKE PLACID — The Plattsburgh High School boys' hockey team put Lake Placid in an early hole Thursday night.
And the Blue Bombers couldn't dig themselves out of it.
Plattsburgh took a 3-0 lead in the first period and skated to a 4-2 victory in Champlain Valley Athletic Conference play.
In the first, John Anthony Fine-Lease scored from Eric Bechard and Andrew Bechard at 2:49, Devin Clarke from Andrew Bechard and Colin Giroux at 10:32 and Andrew Bechard from Alex Maston and Fine-Lease at 11:39.
It stayed 3-0 through the second period, and Lake Placid tried to rally in the third when Eddie Kane scored unassisted at 7:12 and then Nzoni Thompson, off assists by Keegan Barney and Ryan Damp, at 10:43.
But the Hornets sealed it with Maston's unassisted empty-net goal with 25 seconds left in regulation.
"We dug a hole too big for ourselves," Lake Placid coach Keith Clark said. "PHS got off to a good start and we weren't ready to play. They pounced on us, and it was disappointing.
"We had some pressure after we cut it to a goal. But we didn't start playing well until 10 minutes were left, and it was too little, too late."
The Blue Bombers held a 26-18 advantage in shots on goal, and Giancarlo Ventre stopped 24-of-26 shots in the Plattsburgh nets. Tucker Angelopoulos made 15 saves for the Blue Bombers.
Plattsburgh 4, Lake Placid 2
Plattsburgh 3 0 1 — 4
Lake Placid 0 0 2 — 2
First period- 1, PHS, Fine-Lease (E. Bechard, A. Bechard), 2:49. 2, PHS, Clarke (A. Bechard, C. Giroux), 10:32. 3, PHS, A. Bechard (Maston, Fine-Lease), 11:39.
Third period- 4, LP, E. Kane, 7:12. 5, LP, N. Thompson (Barney, Damp), 10:43. 6, PHS, Maston eng, 14:35.

À La Carte Excursions | General Information
Add To Plan
The scenic drive toward the summit of Mt. Etna, Sicily's best-known natural attraction, is as amazing as the volcano itself. Ascending the circuitous roads, you'll venture past quaint mountain villages to Etna's inactive Silvestri craters, rising more than 6,000 feet above sea level. From the slopes of the craters, which bear numerous remnants of lava streams from previous eruptions, you'll have a stunning panoramic view of the glistening Gulf of Catania and the surrounding fertile, volcanic landscape, all of which lies within the island's first national park.
Please note: Guests should bring a jacket with a windproof outer-layer as temperatures atop Mount Etna can be windy and cool, even during the summer months. The ground may be rough underfoot; thus, closed-toe shoes are recommended. This tour does not involve much walking, however guests may walk to and around the Crateri Silvestri area at their discretion.

It's been almost a month since the election and most sensible folks are still trying to recover from not being bombarded with the images of Barack and the Mittser on the tube. And now comes another post election story?
Yes, but don't flip over to the sport section just yet, cause this is a unique insight worth sharing even if you are sick and tired of this stuff.
The scene: A room filled with about 100 educators. Everyone with a college degree and interested in politics. (O.K., so they aren't normal, but we digress.)
"Take out a piece of paper and a pencil (a command sure to retrogress everyone back to the second grade.) Write down one sentence on why Mitt Romney did not win and when you are done pass them in." (Now we are for sure in second grade.)
The group of high achievers launched into the assignment with the disclosure that they were helping to write one of next week's blogs on Mlive.com.
89 persons dutifully followed the instructions, so now this question to you. What was the top answer? Mr. Romney lost because:(A) 47% comment(B) Voters Were Afraid of Change(C) Latinos Deserted Him(D) Not Trustworthy(E) None of the above
Here's a sentence to fill the space so you can decide before you see the correct answer which turns out to be….the last letter.
And here's the interesting aspect. 49 out 89 persons said basically the same thing, "He didn't relate well to the common people." Or "disconnected" or "inability to connect with all types of people."
A whopping 55% got it correct which leads you to ponder why the smarty pants researchers in the Romney camp could not uncover this before the vote and do something about it. Turns out they knew and tried to solve it by putting the candidate in blue jeans…starched no less. But at the end of the day, there was Mitt fumbling around to make the connection. He got 48% but the other guy got more. Thanks to the "second graders" who provided the content here.

Add another team to the Rick Nash trade discussions. The San Jose Sharks are interested in the Columbus Blue Jackets captain and, according to TSN, they're expected to stay interested until Monday's trade deadline. Via Darren Dreger:
The San Jose Sharks are emerging as a strong contender for Rick Nash. Sources say Columbus initially targeted Logan Couture, but was quickly told that was a non-starter. But, make no mistake, San Jose will stay in the mix until Monday's deadline.
It makes sense that Doug Wilson isn't willing to give up Couture, just as it makes sense that Scott Howson would go after Couture, a Calder Trophy candidate just a year ago.
Dreger reports that the Sharks would prefer an offseason deal, which also makes sense to a certain extent for Howson and the Blue Jackets considering the market in general could have more of an appetite for Nash in the summer. Wilson is still interested, however, and the temptation of Nash on a line with Joe Thornton in the upcoming playoffs could be too much to resist.
If a trade happens though, Sharks blog Fear The Fin doesn't want to see Joe Pavelski go the other way.
In essence, he's a player who gives you immense value in all three situations-- even strength, power play, penalty kill-- and has a game that transitions extremely well into the postseason when quality of competition picks up and teams begin to throw numerous looks your way. There's nothing here not to like, too much here not to love, and his affordable contract (right there with Marc-Edouard Vlasic's for best on the team) is something that magnifies that ten fold.
Nash doesn't get you that bang for the buck even if he's a more talented player than Pavelski.

Residential Real Estate Auction Strategy – ListedBy KNOWLEDGE CENTRE
Did you know that selling real estate at auction with a lower, attractive but acceptable minimum starting price for the homeowner is a powerful strategy to maximize the asset value and final sale price? This strategy, applied for a residential real estate auction, can be highly effective.
As long as a minimum starting bid price is set for the auction, there is only upside. The seller is not obliged to release the property for any bid below the set level. The main advantage of this strategy is pulling potential buyers away from competing properties towards at least having a look. Once buyers have had the chance to see the property, interest is created, and one or more bids are entered, buyers can go on to outbid each other knowing that the property is priced below other listings they had originally been considering.
Benefit 1: Bring in buyers looking at competing properties in the area
Benefit 2: Attract more than one potential buyer
Benefit 3: Create a bidding competition
Benefit 4: Differentiate yourself as a REALTOR with potential future customers by demonstrating you offer a unique value proposition
Read more Power Tips in the ListedBy KNOWLEDGE CENTRE
Unlock Your Unique Value Proposition (Part 2)
Everyone would like to have a powerful and effective Unique Value Proposition. This article offers steps to guide you through the process.
Getting a clear understanding of what a "Unique Value Proposition" is can be very helpful, but pinning yours down can be quite the task.
Typically, an advertising agency is the best route to get such work done. In reality though, most REALTORS® may not have, or wish to commit the resources to undertake such an exercise.
This article is a relatively simple step by step guide to help you pin down an advertising promise that makes your brand stand out through an effective benefit oriented promise.
In the first article of this series, we described the term "Unique Value Proposition" as your market edge. Technically, that it is a sentence or paragraph that captures and describes the unique benefit your solution offers to a target audience and that ideally addresses an opportunity or pain point they face. The ultimate value proposition will not elaborate on the pain but rather focus entirely on the benefit you bring to the table. People buy benefits, not problems.
Step #1 – Identify a group of 10 – 20 people willing to give you unbiased, genuine feedback. Current and former clients are what you need (not friends or family members). Give this audience a good incentive to provide you with their genuine and real feedback. Gift cards or a drawing to win an iPad or camera may do the trick.
Let them know that:
- You need their input for an important branding exercise for your business
- That their candid and genuine input is crucial
- That there are no right or wrong answers. That all answers are critical to the exercise, and that what think may be bad input can be the best input they have, and the other way around. This is key.
Step #2 – Create a list of one or two-word attributes that describe a great REALTOR® or their services. Then email, fax, or drop off the forms to just half of your research group and ask them to rank the attributes.
Here is an example:
Please rank, in order, the most important attributes you look for in choosing a REALTOR®.
Note that you should not include more than ten attributes. Following are some suggestions but by no means yoou don't have to use those. You know best what should go on the list. Just make sure the suggested attributes are not biased or self-serving. You want a solid, true exercise you can learn from and use to effectively reposition your business.
1) Honesty
2) Neighborhood knowledge
3) Efficiency and productivity
4) Speed of service/responsiveness
5) Negotiation skills
6) Etc. etc. etc.
Step #3 – Ask your research base, in the same document, to write your name next to any three of the attributes they believe you genuinely represent.
Once you've collected and analyzed the responses, you will have a list that highlights the attributes your market values most in a REALTOR®, and, from this first group, which of the top ranked attributes they think you represent. You may be surprised by the findings, but this is what the exercise is all about.
Armed with a clean sheet and new information, hand the top attributes ranked by the first group, from most important to least important, to the second half of your research audience and ask them to put your name next to three of any of the descriptors. The objective is to further validate the findings that came out of the first group exercise.
While there will still be more work to do following the discovery phase, you will have reached a point where your advertising and messaging can begin to tackle criteria you know will hit a cord in your marketplace and that genuinely position you as a stand out advisor.
Use the findings intelligently to craft highly focused advertising and listing presentations. And, do NOT do what most marketers do. Resist the temptation to change things after a few months have passed. And, resist the equally destructive temptation of merging more than a single attribute into your promise.
Consistency, over time, is what creates equity and association around a brand. Repeat your message until home owners and prospective buyers in your area start to automatically suggest your name when asked for a REALTOR® who is 'responsive' or 'is a very strong negotiator.'
The fun part is knowing that as you build towards this kind of strategic awareness, many of your competitors will be spinning their wheels trying to be everything to everyone.
As a final note, being associated with a #3 ranked attribute and playing up on that association in your positioning is far more powerful than trying to associate yourself with the #1 attribute that you are not that strong in. Effective market positioning is all about a relevant promise you can deliver on better than anyone else.
Not about promising something everyone else can deliver on, or worse, that others can deliver on better than you.
Unlock Your Unique Value Proposition
If you're asking yourself this question, you're not alone. In fact, you would be pleased to know that some 'professional' marketers often don't know what it really means. Some, including a few veterans I know, give up on the concept entirely at some point in their career and pull back to focus on product or service attributes. Big mistake.
A Unique Value Proposition is your market edge. It's a sentence or paragraph that captures and describes the unique benefit your solution offers to a specific target audience and that ideally addresses a pain point or opportunity they face.
A proposition that includes a competitive bite stands to be more successful in the marketplace than one that does not. Meaning, a solution that delivers something better than other solutions (you need to be able to prove that), is more powerful than one that does not benchmark against anything. While we're on this aspect of a value proposition, the benchmark you compare against in your communication may even be your own 'older' solution that is now being replaced, if yours is the leading solution in the market or, if you cannot actually compete with others' solutions.
Let's also not confuse a Unique Value Proposition with a selling proposition or, selling line. We'll make that a separate discussion in the future.
You might want to start thinking about your value proposition and write it down. That will be the first step towards more powerful communication as you focus your pitch around this promise. Don't give up on the exercise if you find that once you start writing things down, that the process does not work out as easily as you hoped. Over time, the idea will crystallize and a strong, effective Unique Value Proposition will emerge.
Do yourself a favour though. Don't try to pin a proposition without consulting with those who know it best – your current and former customers. This is the most important part of the process. In talking to a few of them specifically about this exercise, you should quickly realize there is a common theme that keeps emerging, and it will likely be very different than what you thought it would be. That's what you should go for and build on. It's what makes you or your service unique and with that, no one will be able to easily claim the same promise. For one, they'll be looked at as a 'me too' pretty quickly and lose their credibility while you build brand equity around your promise.
The last point to take note of is to maintain your message consistently once you've established the value proposition, and resist the urge to change it whenever you introduce a new marketing campaign. Focus on it in the long run, and re-evaluate it as you go to ensure it remains competitive. It's the repetition of the same message that will make you stand for something unique in your market. It will take time and effort. At some point, no one will be able to touch you on that particular promise, but only if you maintain your competitiveness in that specific area.

Erica Forston was reunited with her infant son Chase Saturday after police say Forston's little blessing was taken from her on the 2000 block of East Firth.
The 10 month old boy was still strapped in his car seat in the back of Forston's stolen Cadillac when he was taken on a wild ride.
"I didn't have any feelings," explained Forston. I felt like the life was out of my body. I'm a three and a half year cancer survivor so just to have him is a blessing."
Forston's 14-year-old niece Quadirah Forston was watching Chase while his mother
checked on a relative's house in the Kensington neighborhood.
When the female crook took off with the car, "I heard someone scream, 'call the cops! Someone took my baby!' then I heard the car screech, "said Frank Shipley.
Shipley is one of three good Samaritans who helped capture the suspected car thief. He and a group of friends hopped in their vehicles and chased the female suspect down.
Shipley was spotted in cell phone video wearing a gray hoodie--holding the suspect down on the ground until police arrived.
"I don't know what was in my head I was just worried about getting that kid out of the car."
Now Shipley is worried about providing for his 11-month-old daughter Miracle and her three older siblings this holiday season.
"My truck is my everything. It's my bills, Christmas. It's my everything. That's that's how I support my family. Without it there's no money."
The 33-year-old licensed contractor is now forced to use his sister's truck for work after he says the engine on his minivan blew out on Interstate 95 Monday.
The damage done Saturday he says when he was about to put oil in it and left the cap off
while racing through the streets of Kensington to reunite Forston with her son.
"His vehicle is totaled because he was selfless and helped me in my time of need," said Forston. I'm trying my best any way to get him a car.
"I didn't do this for any handouts. It's appreciative for whoever wants to help out," said Shipley.

Senate Approves 'Religious Viewpoints Anti-Discrimination Act'
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- A proposal that would prevent students from being discriminated against for expressing their religious beliefs has passed the Senate.
The measure sponsored by Republican Sen. Kerry Roberts of Springfield was approved 29-0 on Wednesday. The companion bill is awaiting a vote on the House floor.
Roberts says the proposal requires school districts to treat a student's religious expression the same as they would a secular viewpoint. Students would also have access to school facilities to organize student prayer groups or other religious gatherings.
Democratic Sen. Beverly Marrero of Memphis, who abstained from voting, questioned whether the bill is "trying to make schools similar to Sunday schools."

Man accused of selling heroinOctober 02,2013Man denies
selling heroin
BENNINGTON — A Manchester resident who was one of the targets of a drug sweep Sept. 25 was arraigned Monday on a felony charge of selling heroin.
Daniel C. Reddan, 31, of Manchester, pleaded innocent in Bennington criminal court to the charge as well as misdemeanor counts of heroin possession and driving with a suspended license. Reddan has other pending charges for driving with a suspended license as well.
In an affidavit, police said they had received reliable information that "Dan from Manchester" had "dog food" for sale April 9. The affidavit said "dog food" is slang for heroin.
Police arranged to have a "cooperating individual" buy 10 bags of heroin from Reddan at a parking lot in Bennington on April 9. Police were able to observe the sale and record it with a video camera, according to the affidavit.
Another target of the drug sweep, Edward Crandall Jr., 36, of Bennington, was involved in the sale, police said. Crandall was arrested and arraigned on Sept. 25. Reddan was released without bail Monday.MORE IN This Just InA Rutland jury has returned a verdict in favor of a retired obstetrician and Rutland Regional...

Women's hoops defeats Kennesaw State, 64-52
Related Links
The Jacksonville University women's basketball team snapped a three-game losing streak Monday with a 64-52 victory against Kennesaw State in A-Sun action at Swisher Gymnasium.
After losing a second-half lead to Mercer, the Dolphins (7-10, 3-3) fared better in the final frame by shooting 40.7 percent from the floor (11-17) and scoring 12 points off of nine turnovers. The Owls (4-13, 0-5) shot to a 27.6 percent in the second half and went 0-for-7 from beyond the arc after hitting 5 of 8 in the first half.
Junior Jade Cargill recorded 16 points and nine boards for JU in the win, while freshman Briona Brown had 12 points and nine rebounds.
"It was good to get back into the win column," JU head coach Jill Dunn said. "Our team played better in the second half tonight. We have rival North Florida on Saturday so we will need to work extra hard this week to prepare."
The Dolphins finished with 38 points in the paint and scored 18 second-chance points on 24 defensive rebounds. They finished the contest with a 37-35 rebounds edge.
Early in the second half, the Owls cut the deficit to 32-31 before three-point plays by junior Stephanie Edwards and Cargill gave the Dolphins a 40-31 advantage (16:52). Cargill later gave JU its largest lead of the game, 55-41, on consecutive layups with less than seven minutes left. Kennesaw State trimmed the lead to nine on a jumper from Ashley Holliday, sister of JU's Britney Holliday, with 5:13 remaining. After a timeout, Edwards recorded her only assists of the game on a Brown jumper (4:42) and a three-pointer by senior Maggie Wilson (4:17) to help seal the win for JU.
Kristina Wells finished with 15 points, six boards, six steals and four assists for the Owls' offense. Holliday had 11 points, while Sametria Gideon had eight points and nine rebounds in the loss.
In the first half, the Dolphins opened with a 14-9 lead on a layup from junior Ciara McLee at 13:14. A Brown layup stretched the advantage to 23-18, but a Holliday three-pointer made the Owls deficit to 25-24 with 3:49 left. JU's Holliday followed with a layup, while senior Tracie Sneed had a put back and a three-pointer in transition to push the Dolphins lead to 32-24 (2:24). Bria Young nailed a three-pointer for Kennesaw State in the final seconds to make it a 32-29 JU advantage at halftime.
Edwards and Sneed each finished with nine points for the Dolphins. Sneed and freshman Queen Alford had six rebounds each.
The Dolphins head across the city Saturday to play rival North Florida at 2 p.m. The matchup will also count towards the annual SunTrust Rive City Rumble standings between the two schools.
