Alleviating political violence through enhancing coherence in collective consciousness: impact assessment analyses of the Lebanon war.
Order No.8822340
This longitudinal social experiment tests a new approach to peace and alleviation of political violence through enhancing coherence, and thereby reducing stress, in an underlying field of collective consciousness. It was predicted that collective practice of the Maharishi Technology of the Unified Field (which includes the Transcendental Meditation and TM-Sidhi techniques) in a series of seven assemblies held within a 2-1/4 year period from June, 1983 to August, 1985, in Lebanon, Israel, Yugoslavia, Netherlands, and U.S.A., would enhance coherence in collective consciousness and behavior in Lebanon. An 821-day data base, recording daily levels of cooperation and conflict, and number of reported war fatalities and injuries, was generated using independently developed 16-point scales (Rasler, 1981). Events were coded by an experienced Lebanese coder, blind to the experimental hypotheses and technology employed, from eight international news sources, including the New York Times, and news broadcasts from radio stations in and near Lebanon representing all major parties to the conflict, as reported by the Foreign Broadcast Information Service.
Box-Jenkins impact assessment analyses indicated that in contrast to nonexperimental days, during the 93 days when the assemblies were sufficiently large for a predicted impact in Lebanon there was an estimated mean 66% increase in level of cooperation among antagonists, 48% reduction in level of conflict, 71% reduction in war fatalities, and 68% reduction in war injuries (p <.0001 for each variable). On a Peace/War Index combining these variables, all seven assemblies showed independently significant positive impacts (p <.01), with an overall estimated mean improvement of 1.22 standard units (p <.0001). Improvements could not be accounted for in terms of changes in temperature, holidays, or other forms of seasonality or trends in the dependent series, which were explicitly controlled for. Consistent with the proposed causal role of the assemblies, their impact was immediate, independent of distance from Lebanon; their dates of occurrence were independent from prior level of conflict; and predictions were not publicized in Lebanon. Results support a proposed unified-field-theoretic model of collective behavior as a basis for a needed new paradigm for understanding peace and eliminating violent conflict.

He brought with him some smaller bunnies, as well as ponies and crafts, that had kids grinning from ear to ear.
Eanna Roach with Betenbough Homes said they started the event in an effort to give back to the community.
"We just decided that we wanted to start hosting events quarterly here, for Lubbock," Roach said, "just to kind of give back to everyone who has just given so much to us and our family."

Just a dumb concept I thought would be funny.
love the animation style very professional! keep up the cool work...
and I loved the ending...
Always acknowledge the return date for a book
That was a really intense ending. Amazing job on this!! c:
Repercussions of Neeson:
Caleb Jordan waited. The lights above him blinked and sparked out of the air. There was Liam Neeson in the house. He didn't see him, but had expected him for days. His warnings were not listenend to and now it was too late. Far too late for now, anyway.
Caleb was a kid for fourteen years. When he was younger, he watched Schindler's List and he said to dad "I want to be a part of something that makes an important message daddy."
Dad said "No! You will BE KILL BY LIAM NEESON"
There was a time when he believed him. Then as he got oldered he stopped. But now in his house he knew there was Liam Neeson.
"This is important!" his subconscious crackered. "You must flee the Neeson!"
So Caleb got his book and looked at the wall.
"HE'S GOING TO KILL ME" said the Caleb "I will stab at him" said the Neeson and then he stabbed him. Caleb shrieked like a girl and tried to ran away. But then the lightning struck and they were trapped and not able to flee.
"No! I must flee the Neeson" sh shouted His subconscious said "No Caleb. You are the Neeson"
And then Caleb was Liam Neeson.
I think it was alright, it would have been better I think if instead of "I will kill you" to "I will fine you" instead. When he breaks in, instead of a dagger, throw an over due slip at him... end it with him pounding the "over due" stamp on the guys face several times... just my opinion though.
lmao, that dude should've taken the threat a bit more seriously. I guess from now on librarians will be a bit more respected huh? Great voice work, and building up the tension, making the ending as intense as it can possible get. Nice one!

Managers May Close Kuskokwim to King Salmon Fishing Earlier than Planned
The waters of Kuskokwim River are free of ice and at the moment open to subsistence king salmon fishing, but that could quickly change, depending on how many fisherman are targeting and catching king salmon in a year that managers believe is crucial for viability of the run.
Brian McCaffery, the Acting Yukon Delta National Wildlife Refuge Manager and the Federal In-Season Manager, says the early season plan had the federal Kuskokwim waters closing to gillnets larger than 4 inches as of a week from Tuesday.
"Right now the game plan is for the 20th, but if it turns out that a lot of people are out there targeting and successfully harvesting kings, we may need to make that date earlier to protect those fish that are trying to get upriver that are trying to get to the spawning grounds further up," McCaffery said.
He says that there are concerns that the run might be building earlier as it has in other early break up years, but he doesn't know with any certainty when the run will come in.
That said, Bethel resident Fritz Charles called into KYUK's Friday Talk Line show and told listeners that the closures are not yet in place, and that it's "a free for all."
McCaffery says words like that are disappointing.
"We were hoping that given the widespread information that's been disseminated across the year about the threats to the king salmon, that folks would use some individual restraint and not target the king salmon at this time and focus on some of the other fish species," McCaffery said.
Later Friday, Charles explained that on one side, he is for conservation and making sure his grandchildren enjoy king salmon, but on the hand…
"Of course everyone one wants the fresh taste of fish," Charles said. "And now is the time to do it, before any regulations or anything sets in place – that's my personal opinion."
Charles says he's not hearing of any kings being caught as of Friday afternoon. This year if McCaffery sees large scale preseason king salmon harvest, he says in addition to closing the gillnet harvest earlier, he may also have to reduce or eliminate what was hoped to be a small cultural and social king salmon harvest of around 1,000 kings. He also may have to change or cancel the 6" gillnet openings penciled in for the last week of June.
2013 brought the lowest Kuskokwim king salmon run on record of around 94,000 kings, with only about 47,000 escaping to spawn, well below the bottom of the escapement goal. All of the weirs saw the lowest passage on record.
Whatever early harvest takes place this year could disproportionally affect the fish that head hundreds of miles upriver, says McCaffery.
"We suspect that many of these salmon that are headed up to the farthest reaches of the headwaters are among those that come in early," McCaffery said. "The folks upriver have made it very clear that they want and need those stocks to be protected."
McCaffery says his crews may be travel this weekend to see how many fishermen are out. Enforcement crews were planning on beginning around May 20th, but they may arrive earlier if necessary.
"We're really hoping that with some very conservative actions which we realize will take sacrifice and will cause some hardship for people that we that may be able to have a better chance at having healthy populations down the road, not just for this generation but for generations still to come," McCaffery said.

Unalaska Tallies Cost of Blasting Issues at Wastewater Plant, Landfill
It's been a year since Unalaska started uncovering big problems with a major construction project in town. Work is moving forward on the city's new wastewater treatment plant. But, staff are still trying to put a price on the damage done.
Workers at the wastewater treatment plant site are busy pouring concrete for the building's water tanks and foundations. City Manager Chris Hladick says they'll be able to start building the actual structure of the plant in the next month.
"You know, they had planned on being further along than they are, but I don't think it's going to impact the total schedule," Hladick said.
The plant has to be online by the end of 2015, as mandated by a settlement with the Environmental Protection Agency.
Meanwhile, Hladick says they're working on another issue — one that was never supposed to be part of the project.
They're trying to add up the cost of issues with blasting work done at the site last year.
Advanced Blasting was originally hired to carve out a hole for the wastewater treatment plant's foundations, but the city says they blasted too deep and too wide, and left behind explosive materials, including sticks of dynamite.
Advanced Blasting owner Julia Saunders has said the company won't comment on the allegations.
But contractors on the project say it's cost them at least $1.6 million — and counting — to deal with the blasting issues.
In some cases, the city's agreed to pay what the companies are asking. They granted a $340,000 change order to Alaska Mechanical, the lead contractor, to fill in the over-blasted area.
But Northern Mechanical, the subcontractor at the plant, is asking for a lot more — $1.3 million, to be exact. Hladick says the company did face a lot of extra work. They had to deal with the over-blasting and the abandoned explosives at the site.
"It was completed last July and August, I believe, the work — they'd find a blasting material and they'd stop work and deal with it, and there were a lot of starts and stops," Hladick said.
Northern Mechanical hasn't been paid for that extra work yet, because the city wants more details on why it cost so much.
"We're saying, 'Wow, that's a lot of money. Okay, show us your back-up. Show us your timecards, show us how many trucks you used…' all that kind of stuff," Hladick said. "And that's well within our rights to do that."
Either way, it's not just financial cost from blasting issues that's adding up at the wastewater site. It's costing time, too. Hladick says Alaska Mechanical wants to add extra days on the end of the contract to make up for delays.
He says that shouldn't be a problem — the city built a buffer into their construction schedule so they could meet the EPA's deadline even if they ran into problems.
But all those problems have had a ripple effect, and it's spread to another municipal project: the landfill expansion. Dynamite wrappers turned up in piles of rock there last month, bringing work to a halt.
The contaminated rock had come from the wastewater treatment plant, and Northern Alaska, the contractor that was supposed to use it to expand the landfill, needed to clean it up. Hladick says they asked for $2.3 million extra to do it.
"That was just to go through 40,000 yards of rock, and they were going to go through it with a fine-tooth comb and make sure there wasn't anything in it," Hladick said. "They had, like, $4,000 a day for a powderman to be on site, and they estimated 60 days to go through the pile."
The city thought the change order was too expensive, so they canceled the contract altogether. The project is set to go back out to bid this week. Whoever picks it up will also have to deal with the contaminated rocks.
That'll all make up the final price of the blasting issues at the wastewater plant. Once the city approves the contractors' requests and tallies the total cost, Hladick says they'll bring it to Advanced Blasting and start looking at getting paid back.
"Yeah, we're going to sit down with them and talk about it, that's for sure," Hladick said.
That conversation won't involve lawyers — at least not at first. But with projects worth more than $23 million total and several companies' reputations at stake, Hladick it's a definite possibility down the road.
Tongass Fire Warning Rescinded
The risk of fires in Southeast's Tongass National Forest has dropped.
A warning was issued last week as warm, sunny weather dried out grass and underbrush.
But Fire Management Officer Seth Ross says that's changed.
"It seems that the forecast and the current weather indicate that we're going back to our typical Southeast Alaska pattern, coming out of that warm and dry weather," Ross says.
"So, we are going to rescind that warning, but still, caution people to always be careful of fire in the woods," he says.
Ross says the Tongass sees an average of 17 fires each year. Sometimes it's as high as 40. Most are brush and peat fires.
Fish and Game Expects Low Yukon Chinook Run
The run size for Yukon River Chinook, or king salmon, is likely to be lower than last year's. Fishermen saw the lowest run of kings on record in 2013.
Sport fishing throughout the entire Yukon River drainage area, including the Tanana River is closed this summer. Biologists don't expect enough fish for a subsistence or commercial harvest this year either.
"Because the last several years, we've seen run sizes that have come in lower or at that low end of our preseason projections," she said.
If she is right, this summer's will be the lowest run on record for the Yukon River. Schmidt says there could be several reasons for the decline in king salmon.
"I always like to use the analogy of a a rivet in an airplane," Schmidt said. "If you take one rivet out the airplane will still fly; If you take two out, it will still fly, but once you start taking three, four, five rivets out it's going to crash."
"So it might not be one big thing that's causing Chinook salmon to decline but several small factors."
Fish and Game is trying to manage the king salmon population so that up to 55,000 fish make it to Canada. That's close to 86 percent of the lower end of the projected total run size. Fish and Game's Yukon Area Summer Season Manager Eric Newland says there hasn't been a lot of argument against closing sport fishing, subsistence or commercial harvest this summer.
"I think most people on the river really understand this: that it's a problem, we're doing a lot to conserve these fish and we're still not making goals," he said.
According to Newland, biologists are looking for ways to allow for harvest of other species in place of king salmon.
"Initially, we'll be trying to provide for sheefish in the lower river, whitefish in other districts as well as summer chum when those fish become available a little later in the season and at that time we'll be using gear types that allow for the release of King salmon if they are incidentally caught at that time," he said.
Newland says last year's commercial harvest of chum salmon, also known as dogs, was one of the largest on record. The subsistence harvest last summer was also up for chums, and Fish and Game expects a strong fall chum run this year as well. In the meantime, several research initiatives to investigate the king salmon decline are underway.
Bethel City Council Fires City Manager Lee Foley
The Bethel City Council voted unanimously to fire City Manager Lee Foley during a special meeting Monday.
The termination comes after the 3-month-long investigation conducted by a third party attorney into nepotism, contracts, and personnel issues, among other issues. Council member Mark Springer noted that Foley had done a lot of good for the city.
"However it is the council's prerogative at any time to terminate the city manager and in light of matters that have come to our attention and that have been given very serious consideration by the council…that why I'm making this motion," Springer said. "And as I've said in previous meetings, this is not something we are taking lightly."
"We've not been following Bethel Municipal Code, and as our administrator for the city, [Foley] is the person most responsible for that to occur," Klejka said. "It has just not been followed multiple, multiple, multiple times."
The council confirmed violations within the city related to procurement, nepotism, credit card usage, personnel policies, leave, and travel and training policies. Foley's son, Bo, works for the city's IT department, which violates current city code.
In an interview with the Anchorage Daily News, Foley admitted to using a city credit card for personal business and allowing department heads to do the same before paying back the money.
The termination was effective immediately. Foley has been city manager since July of 2008. Port Director Pete Williams has been the acting city manager since Foley was placed on administrative leave in April.
Foley said in a brief statement to the council that it was an honor serving the city council and that he wishes the best for Bethel.
The council is hoping to hire a human resources director soon, in an effort to ensure personnel policies are followed.
The council passed four motions in the special meeting. One would freeze tuition assistance to city employees until next year. Others would not allow first class travel on city business trips, stop automatic credit card charges, and ensure employees who cash out sick leave and personal time do so according to code.
The city is not releasing the investigation, citing attorney client privilege. KYUK and five other media organizations have submitted a public records request for the investigation.
The council meets in a regular meeting Tuesday at 6:30 at City Hall where they plan to hold a public hearing about proposed increases to water and sewer rates, direct city staff to move ahead with bike path and boardwalk repair and discuss creating a Bing Santamour higher education scholarship.

The Alaska Air Group will buy back up to $650 million of stock, in a move approved by the Board of Directors.
The buyback will equal about 10-percent of the company's current market capitalization and comes on the heels of the current $250-million stock buyback.
In a prepared statement, the Chief Financial Officer stressed that the Alaska Air Group will finance the stock repurchases with cash on hand and cash flow from operations.
Since 2007, the Alaska Air Group has instigated 8 stock repurchase initiatives at a cost of $519-million. The Board of Directors also approved a quarterly cash dividend of 25-cents per share to be paid on June 4.
The Alaska Air Group is the parent company for Alaska Airlines.

...there is a place in you where you have never been wounded, where there's still a sureness in you, where there's a seamlessness in you, and where there is a confidence and tranquility in you. ~John O'Donohue
2008 slipped away and so did my healthy eating habits and exercise. But giving up is not an option because this is my health and my life and I only get one. I think you are on the right track, Sarah, with the increased fiber. Be gentle with yourself just like you would be to your friend. Jenny Craigers are not any different from the rest of us. 95% will gain the weight back unless they have made permanent lifestyle changes. By permanent I mean following a path not seeking a destination. People who maintain a healthy weight (whatever that is for them) do so with mindfulness and persistance. There is no end point. There is only healthy, loving self care. We are worth it.
"I always wanted to be somebody, but now I realize I have to be more specific." -Lily Tomlin
The weight loss ticker represents my maintenance range.
I guess it's especially hard for you since I imagine you can't exercise more in those bursts!
I'll see if I can manage to exercise more- I was doing 40-60 min 3x a week before starting these tablets, I'm currently managing 5x but I have to return to work on Friday so I guess my available time will cut back a bit.
Thanks for your support
I understand this frustration. Thank goodness it's only temporary. If you can up your exercise (either time or intensity if not both), that may help to offset the appetite issues. I have asthma and restrictive lung disease. On occasion I get an asthma flare or other respiratory infection and have to go on a "prednisone burst" (usually 5 days of prednisone). That helps the breathing very much, but while on it, I will eat anything not nailed down and can't sleep. Thankfully, it's not often I have to take it.
Energy and persistence conquer all things.

Well, now I'm OK when I haven't eaten for a while, but when I've just eaten a meal I'm starving. I'm having to watch for post-meal binges- yesterday after dinner I had second dinner. I mean, it was "healthy" food but it was still calories I don't need, you know? I also ate half a box of chocolates the day before. It doesn't help that I'm going through lots of stress at the moment.
At least I'm on top of the exercise at the moment. 40-50 minutes of vigorous exercise 5 times a week.
I am eating just like you. 100% pm my plan but eating and hungry all the time. I am at Maintanence and have been for a month. So far I have not gained any weight but it is a full time job watching my food. Thankfully I am able to eat tons more food now that I go to the gym 3 times a week.

I think that kind of statement is wishful thinking and advertising hype! I've lost and gained twice and I hope I'm losing again... In my experience, I have to think about what I eat all the time and journal to keep track of calories and nutrients or else the weight just floats up again!
I try to think of that hungry feeling as my body using up the stored fat - a sign that I am eating right! (not that I can always convince myself LOL)

It's mostly very hungry I'm getting to know and love all my vegetables and fibre supplements well.
Thanks for your support!

It must be very frustrating.
"Have patience with all things, but chiefly have patience with yourself. Do not lose courage in considering your own imperfections but instantly set about remedying them -- every day begin the task anew."
Saint Francis de Sales
It's not a nutrient issue, it's an issue with the medication I'm taking, and a well-known issue
The pharmaceutical company claims an average of "only" a 5lb gain but working as a nurse I've seen an average of maybe 20lb or more for the patients taking this medication.
It's so frustrating.
Hi Sarah, It's just a thought but if you journal your food as per the Your Nutition youu can sometimes pick up on what nutrients you are low on that might be causing the hunger. I know that I need to have carbs and a bit of fat in my diet or I feel hungry all the time. All the very best and welcome.

You are not alone. I look aty Valerie Butinelli on the Jenny Craig commercial say that on January 1st she will wake up and not have to worry about her weight. I sigh and tell myself how I COULD be there. I SHOULD be there. I feel somewhat guilty for not being there. However as Joyce Meyer says, you can either be pitiful or powerful but not both. It really hit me when I couldn't even fit in a size 8 suit skirt. When I was buying jeans for myself in December I had to resign that I'm a size 8/10 not a 6/8. I bought two sized 10 jeans and one size 8 and they fit me well. I let myself go this Christmas. With God's help I'll loose it though. I'm going to start exersising 1 hour per day. One bright spot this Christmas is that a found a pair of boots at Target that was not a plus calf and yet fit plus size calves and I did not eat my way out of a pair of boots. I wore them last Sunday. Today I have done well. I have not gone off my diet 1 time.

The trouble is I'll eat the popcorn then the banana and the oatmeal and the brussels then another banana... I'm just so hungry all the time.
I don't know if you ever did the 40 hour famine at school (raising money for starving people)- I always feel like I'm half way through, even when I'm in the middle of eating.
I'll be rooting for you! I have found maintenance or goal weight to be much harder to maintain. We both know it's worth it, but it is a full time job. Try to have some food around the house that you can eat but won't destroy your goals. May not be your favorite foods, but I have found that if I eat these (like brussel sprouts), it's fills the void and I can get through the "I have to eat" feeling. Microwave popcorn, apples, bananas, sweet potatoes, vegetable sandwiches, and oatmeal are just a few things that I eat.

But I gained back 1.5kg during a hospital stay so I'm a little way off again.
I started a new medication, so along with the challenges of maintaining weight when there aren't new milestones to hit, I'm always hungry. Much hungrier trying to maintain weight than I ever was trying to lose it. Last time I took this medication, a few years ago, I gained 1kg every week I was on it because of my uncontrollable eating. On the other hand, if I can maintain weight for the 3 months I have to take this medication, I can be pretty confident about my self-control.
Also, hi, I'm Sarah, I'm a RN from Australia, and even with my 1.5kg of weight gain, I'm at a healthy weight for the first time in my adult life! Before I went to hospital I could run 5km and I'm hoping within a fortnight I'll be able to get back to that.

I, Paul Mirengoff, Offer Heap Big Apology To My Indian Brothers
In words before great council fire, I, Paul Mirengoff, fighter for Akin Gump tribe, speak with fiery tongue about Yaqui Indian prayer to Great Spirit for scalped white sister Gabrielle Giffords and others killed at village of Tucson.
I, Paul Mirengoff, did not mean to hurt Yaqui Indian brothers and sisters, I swear before moon and stars. I am warrior and brave. My words are few and plain. All know wounds I have for Akin Gump tribe, in battles before Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and District of Columbia Circuit Court of Appeals.
I carry off many horses, and squaws, to serve clients at Akin Gump pow wow of war against plaintiffs' employment discrimination bar! I write conservative blog Power Line, often linked by Great Instapundit and others, bringing fame to Akin Gump tribe.
But for Indian brothers and sisters I, Paul Mirengoff, carry only firewater and beads, never war medicine! Especially Indians who, I now hear at big ghost dance in Akin Gump main lodge near House of Great White Father, are lucrative casino gaming clients of mighty Akin Gump tribe! All know that I, Paul Mirengoff, am great medicine talker and truth teller, so it hurt my feelings to learn that Indians, especially casino gaming clients, so easily offended. Do not take Paul Mirengoff as white man who speak with forked tongue, noble savages, but sit with Paul Mirengoff at table, like Tonto and Squanto and great warriors of old, and smoke pipes of peace.
Honest Injun!

Five Things to Know About 2014 Back-to-School Marketing
July 10, 2014 § Leave a comment
Back-to-school is in full swing now. The traditional back-to-school season has changed and marketers need to make note. The reason for many of these changes are year-round school schedules, just-in-time shopping, online shopping habits and budgets. The back-to-school season has become more of a pinnacle of an ongoing activity than a confined season.
How big is back-to-school? The average family will spend $670 on shopping this year, up 5% from 2013 according to the National Retail Federation. However, 21% of families with children in elementary, middle school or high school reported in a NRF survey they will spend less this year.
Did you know? Combined school and college spending was estimated at $72.5 billion, making it the second-biggest season for retailers. Winter holiday ranks first at $84 billion and Mother's Day comes in at third at $21 billion.
Here are five things to know about this year.
1. Back-to-school shopping starts in July. Americans began their search as early as June last year. Google conducted a study during the 2013 season and found that 23% of respondents began back-to-school research before July 4, with nearly two-thirds (65%) starting by the end of July. In contrast, only 35% said they made a purchase by the end of July.
The spending is spread out over several months, with traditional spending in August and September. The early shoppers take advantage fresh merchandise, early bird sales and comparison shopping, while the later shoppers are necessity shopping and maybe taking advantage of end-of-season sales.
One difference in the early and traditional shopper may be their form of shopping. The early shoppers are using their desktop and tablets to shop, while the more traditional are using mobile devices and shopping in-store.
During back-to-school 2013, competitive pricing was the top use of mobile, with 66 percent of shoppers planning to use their smartphones to obtain price information and 60 percent to obtain discounts, coupons, or sale information–up 15 percentage points from 2012. There is a whopping 78% of smartphone owners using their mobile devices for shopping.
2. Just in time shopping. The mall has been replaced by online and teens are constantly shopping for new ideas. The world of disposable fashion has lead teens to take advantage of affordable retailers and wait to see what their friends are wearing. Digital-native students are shopping constantly throughout the year, even if they're not buying.
Just-in-time shopping also shows that as many as 50% parents only buy what is essential for back to school and then buy additional needs during the holiday season, when they expect the best deals. It is a way of spreading out the shopping expense to make it more manageable for their budget. And parents are saving money by buying store-brand items, shopping sales and using coupons.
3. Online is #3 destination. eMarketer forecasts that digital sales for the back-to-school season will increase 16.0% in 2014. One-third of all back-to-school shoppers will make an online purchase, and 45% of back-to-college shoppers will head online. According to Deloitte, among top back-to-school shopping destinations in 2013, 36 percent of consumers shopped online, moving online shopping to the third destination behind discount and office supply/technology stores, a significant jump from the No. 8 position in 2012.
4. College Online Spending Big. More than $3 of every $5 aimed at back-to-school clothes and supplies is spent on college-bound students. A PM Digital report shows online shoppers stealing 37% of this market as the online college segment spends over $1,100 per family. In fact, shopping expenditures are higher online – with 37.3% K-12 and 37.1% college students buying through e-commerce.
5. Smartphone Tool for Shopping. During back-to-school 2013, competitive pricing was the top use of mobile, with 66 percent of shoppers planning to use their smartphones to obtain price information and 60 percent to obtain discounts, coupons, or sale information–up 15 percentage points from 2012. There is a whopping 78% of smartphone owners using their mobile devices for shopping.
What should marketers do this season?
1. Make sure your campaigns are live now and active through September. To stand out, thing about using video and consumer stories to help tell the story. Search should be already in place.
2. Make sure content is available on tablet and mobile. Don't forget social. Hashtags like #stapleshasit and L.L.Bean's #packmentality, which leapt from social media into display, email and print last season, will proliferate in 2014.
3. Solicit stories from your customers to drive positive reviews.
4. Time your sales (early-bird and end of season) to match buying periods.
5. Differentiate between back-to-school and back-to-college.
Marketing to Non-Moms: The Nuclear Family Blown Up!
June 7, 2014 § 2 Comments
Having the perfect marriage and the nuclear family of two parents, 2.5 kids, and a house in the suburbs is no longer the ideal of many women. There is now a significant portion of women who are not marrying, marrying later, living single, living with a same-sex partner, divorced, or widowed. One-third of all women, or 19 million women, do not have children.
DeVries Global has done research on women in 2014 with a specific focus on "The Otherhood" – women who do not have children by choice or chance. Research shows this is a large group; some 47% of women of the childbearing age in the US do not have kids.
Here are some of the insights about these independent women who are not parents.
1. Well educated and Smart. The research found that 75 percent of women without children had some college or above, compared to 67 percent of women with kids. Additionally, 37 percent have a Bachelor Degree or higher while almost 10 percent have an advanced or professional degree.
2. Social Clout. These women have an extremely large social network consisting of more than 1500 friends and followers across several social media platforms. She spends approximately the same amount of time on social networks as moms (28 hours per week!) but her choices might be less Facebook and more Pinterest.
3. Spending More Per Person. She is spending outspending mom on a per person basis. She is spending double on beauty and personal care and 35% more per person on groceries. She is more likely to shop in a drugstore than a Wal-Mart or Target. She has a monthly budget and she uses coupons. She is slightly more likely to compare prices online.
4. Finding Success, Then Love. The top priorities in her life are career success and love. Oh, and love does not necessarily mean marriage. They rank marriage and having kids well behind finding love. Many want to establish their careers before they consider marriage. It's more about self-reliance.
Dr. Janet Taylor observes, "Having it all doesn't just mean you are a working woman who is a mom, having it all means having a life that has meaning and purpose. If you are single and childless, you can still have that."
5. Loving Children. The study found that children play an active role in the lives of 80 percent of non-moms. And 36% of non-moms are voluntarily without children. When asked if they wanted children of their own, the group had diverse answers. While being an aunt is enough for some, nearly half (46%) of non-moms want to be mothers. Some 18 percent are on undecided. For those undecided or do not want children, giving up their freedom was the number one reason non-moms were hesitant about having children.
6. Free to Travel. Women are living an independent lifestyle, traveling more often and many times alone. Fifty-nine percent say travel is a passion. Non-moms spend 60% more days abroad per year than moms, and those that are in a relationship spend more than twice as much time away with their partner than mom.
7. Happy and Fulfilled. Non-moms can find happiness in rich and intimate friendships, meaningful careers, lives of adventure, and love in different forms. There is no longer a stereotype that having children is the only path – 80 percent of non-moms felt they could lead a happy life without children, whether or not they want children of their own.
How to Reach these Independent Women
• Show her life with authenticity. Don't focus just on the work component.
• Celebrate her independence, resilience and autonomy.
• Recognize her influence online and her taste.
• Look for opportunities to market to her like solo travel experiences.
• Segment her psychographic group as a target audience, looking at her buying habits and needs.
Are Female CEOs Being Thrown Off The "Glass Cliff"?
May 17, 2014 § 2 Comments
New research shows that female CEOs and senior executive women like Jill Abramson are more likely to be abruptly fired, thrown off the "glass cliff", than men. Researchers at Strategy& have released a report that found that women are forced out of chief executive positions more than a third of the time, while only a quarter of men in similar positions experience the same fate. Oh, by the way, women only represent about 3% of new CEOs.
An illustration of this phenomenon could be the recent unceremonious departure of Jill Abramson as executive editor of The New York Times. Reporters everywhere are trying to get to the bottom of the story. Is this a story of classic gender discrepancy where men are seen as strong, driven, and effective leaders while women are seen as churlish, pushy and bossy? Was she a victim of the "glass cliff theory" where companies promote women to power in times of corporate crisis and then see their "management styles" as ineffective? Doing your job may not always be enough. During Abramson's tenure, the New York Times won eight Pulitzer prizes, signups for digital increased, and the company stock doubled.
What does research show?
Women are more often hired from outside the company and women are more often forced out of the office (38% women vs. 27% men). Many of these companies still lack enough female senior executives below the CEO level who can move up to a CEO position. Companies hiring female executives from outside are also likely to be less tolerant of shortcomings than they are with executives groomed in-house. And external CEOs are seven times more likely to be dismissed after a short tenure. What happens after a female CEO is fired? The boardrooms fall back into traditional behavior - they hire white men with experience.
Should we "Ban Bossy"?
Sheryl Sandberg and the Girl Scouts agree on one thing – We should "Ban Bossy". The word bossy can discourage women from seeking leadership positions. In one of Sandberg's anti-bossy spots, celebrity Beyoncé proclaims, "I'm not bossy. I'm the boss." According to the Girl Scouts Ban Bossy National Youth Poll 2014, more than a third of girls who are called "bossy" lose interest in leading and stop making decisions or suggestions.
While women are increasing the top levels of management, there is still a long way to go. The proportion of women in the CEO position has doubled to nearly 4% in the past five years and could rise to 33% by 2040. But old habits, the gender norms of corporate leadership, remain hard to change.
Marketing to Women: Is the Lunch Hour Dead?
May 13, 2014 § 1 Comment
As I was munching on my McDonald's salad at my desk today, I started wondering about the fate of lunch in America. I certainly don't seem to break for lunch as often as I used to. In fact, the phrase lunch hour is even misleading. In a recent study , 48% of employees say that the typical lunch break is 30 minutes or less. And in another study by Staples, 19% of employees say they don't stop for lunch at all. In 2010, Monster found that more than 20 percent of workers say they always eat lunch at their desks.
The lunch "break" has turned into a time for errands, online shopping, more work and maybe a quick bite. Here are some of the reasons behind these trends.
• The recession spawned a cutback in personal and business spending. And currently the IRS only allows 50% of entertainment expenses. With a focus on productivity, some employees feel pressure to work more and don't feel they have time for lunch.
• Working women have a lot of tasks to accomplish. Any given day may include errands, online shopping, haircuts and a quick bite. Working moms are 13% more likely to have spent $2500+ on internet purchases, 10% more likely to do their banking online and they own almost every mobile device technology that allows them to shop.
• Lunch hour shopping trends show 84% of moms shop 15 minutes or more a day at work. And most of that shopping happens between 11 a.m. and 2 p.m. Some 43% of female workers say they did their holiday shopping online while at work, compared to only 35% of male workers. Not surprisingly, 21% of back to school shopping happens online. Woman shoppers use the time as a welcome break from their office routine and would rather shop online than go to a mall.
Some categories have benefitted from this trend. Certainly online shopping of all kinds has prospered. Retailers see rising traffic during the 11 a.m. and 2 p.m. period and some are creating two-hour "stop, drop and shop" promotions during that lunch window. Grocery stores have embraced the trend with more "grab and go" lunch foods. According to market researcher NPD Group, grocers have seen their lunchtime purchases of prepared food like sandwiches and salads jump by 28% since 2008. And fast casual restaurants like Panera and Chipotle provide high quality food options with a lower time commitment. There is also a trend to wanting snacks at all times to tide workers over to dinner time.
In the world of advertising and marketing, the three martini lunches were legend. Gerald Ford said, "The three-martini lunch is the epitome of American efficiency. Where else can you get an earful, a bellyful and a snootful at the same time?" While some still remember those long lost "Mad Men" three martini lunches fondly, in retrospect, they seem indulgent and luxurious. Time might have been the true luxury. Maybe those lunches were not very productive, but they did provide opportunity for marketers and clients to know each other better. Maybe we have traded the martini for the macchiato, but that coffee with a client might be a great time to really talk, listen to each other and share ideas freely. Cheers!
Marketing to Women: The Power of Storytelling from Kurt Vonnegut
April 21, 2014 § Leave a comment
Stories are the playbook for life. Stories are the way we teach, the way we communicate, the way we entertain, and the way we impart value. Some marketers have known the value of story for many years. Researchers tell us that a story is the only way to activate parts of the brain so that a listener turns the story into their own idea and experience. Those of us who know the iconic J. Peterman catalogues read them for the mesmerizing value of their stories about where their exotic products were discovered and the effect of wearing their products.
Recently, as a literary & anthropological experiment, Rob Walker and Joshua Glenn decided to see if they could resell cheap knickknacks (avg. cost $1.25) on eBay and turn a significant profit by adding personal stories to the item descriptions. Their hypothesis was that creative stories would increase the perceived value of each object and create an incremental profit on each item sold. With the addition of colorful anecdotes, their $129 purchase of thrift store items was sold for nearly $8,000.
The Harvard Business Review reminded us of the power of the story as told by Kurt Vonnegut. It seems that Vonnegut devoted his master's thesis at the University of Chicago to studying the shapes of stories. Vonnegut not only exhibits a great understanding of story, but is an entertaining storyteller. He tells us there are basically three types of stories that we humans find irresistible. The three stories are Boy Gets Girl, Man in Hole and Cinderella. He tells his audience that the Cinderella story is "the most popular story in our Western civilization. Every time it's retold somebody makes another million dollars. You're welcome to do it."
What you see in this short film is the endless fascination that the human mind has for story. As marketers, we need to be students of Vonnegut and the story, and make all our marketing a powerful story for consumers.
Marketing to Women: The Future of Reading
April 16, 2014 § Leave a comment
I just returned from the LA Festival of Books and on my plane trip home, as I juggled between my iPad and a paperback, I wondered about the future of reading. Some think we are in a transition as disruptive as Gutenberg's printing presses more than 500 years ago. In fact, some in Silicon Valley think Gutenberg was the first technology geek and call him their patron saint.
The Facts, Please!
Women contributed to 58% of book purchases in 2012, up from 55% in 2011.
According to Pew Research, more than 50% of Americans now have some type of handheld device–either a tablet computer like an iPad, or an e-reader such as a Kindle– for reading e-content. That number is up from 43% of adults who had either of those devices in September 2013, so adoption is growing.
Some 76% of all adults have read a book in the past year, but 82% of women have read a book in the past year. The typical adult read or listened to five books during the year but the median number of books read by women was 14 books. Those who read books on an e-reader tend to be more female, while gender is fairly evenly split on iPad book readership. The amount we read has stayed fairly level the past few years.
But here's an interesting statistic. The majority of those reading e-readers still read print books as well. Among adults who read at least one book in the past year, just 5% said they read an e-book in the last year without also reading a print book.
Sure, publishing is changing. Bookstores have become curated collections, not mass marketers, and writers are unchained and able to post their own books to Amazon. But as I walked through the LA Festival of Books and saw and heard people lovingly hold and share their books and heard authors speak of their inspirations, I realized that story is still alive and well. And that is the future of reading.
Marketing to Women: Expert Content Most Trusted
April 2, 2014 § Leave a comment
What content works best? Marketers are struggling to make out what content is most valuable and how it works for them. But, let's look at how it works for the shopper. The study recognizes three types of content:
• Expert Content: Independent editorial reviews. You know, the stuff you don't pay for, in credible forums written by recognized experts. If you were in the tech field, you might want a Walt Mossberg review or a TechCrunch story.
• Branded Content: Paid materials like advertorials, company websites, or company blogs.
• User-generated content: Unpaid reviews by web users on sites.
A new study from Nielsen and inPowered looked at the major types of content and its effect on the purchasing process. And guess what? A huge 85% of participants in the study said they seek out third-party information for all sorts of products. They may use a variety of sources for information including social media, user reviews, advertising, websites and expert reviews.
But when it comes to purchase consideration, affinity and familiarity, expert reviews win every time.
According to the study, 61% of participants said they were less likely to trust any review commissioned by the company that produced the product while editorial writers are, by definition, offering their honest opinions.
Some might interpret this information as meaning you need only public relations. But the truth is, all that content adds up to more than just one vehicle can accomplish alone. Expert reviews may proceed a new product announcement. Advertising will follow up and create awareness for the product. Websites may provide product details. And word of mouth and user reviews help reinforce the expert opinion and advertising claims. It's not just one
Marketing to Women: Ford Parody of Cadillac Spot More Appealing to Women
March 31, 2014 § Leave a comment
Thanks to Adweek for alerting us to two spots that espouse totally different views on marketing Hybrid Cars – one spot from Cadillac and one spot from Ford. Which one do you think appeals to women looking for a hybrid plug-in? An insensitive male spokesperson who worships status toys or a confident female entrepreneur who wants to make the world a better place?
Here's the facts: Women purchase half of all vehicles sold in the US and take part in 80% of the car buying decisions. And women request 65% of the service work done at dealerships.
The Cadillac Approach
Cadillac has been airing a well-criticized spot espousing that the American dream is based on taking less vacation and owning lots of things. The spots seems to reek of elitism, egocentric views and insensitivity. The intent of the spot was to sell Cadillac's CLR luxury plug-in but it seems to have struck a raw nerve with today's more socially conscious consumer.
The Ford Approach
Ford took on the Cadillac spot with their own spoof of the spot posted on YouTube. The focus of the spot is sustainability, entrepreneurism, and making our cities better. The spokesperson couldn't be more different — a successful black women Pashon Murray, the founder of a sustainability consultancy and advocacy group.
Marketing to Moms: Coupons Still Rule in All Forms
March 27, 2014 § Leave a comment
Moms seem to have the most desire to find bargains and clip coupons. No doubt it's because households with children under 18 spend more money than households with no children or with children 18+.
A Gallup poll shows that across all incomes, households with children just spend more – on all types of things. So it is no surprise that Moms are the most active users of coupons.
Moms are seeking discounts, whether they get them from an app or still cut them out of the newspaper. In a new report from eMarketer, Moms are seen to use coupons more than non-Moms.
The Allrecipes.com chart shows how printed coupons still reign, but coupon apps are still an important part of the mix. As the smartphone becomes the tool of choice for many, apps will continue to grow in use. Moms appear to be always on the alert for deals and ways to save money.
Also important in the total mix are the online saver sites. Womensforum reported that 37.8% of mothers reported using the food or frugal website/blogger sites that share coupons.
Being frugal is still cool and may be a residual effect of the Great Recession for some time to come. But certainly, households with children are looking for ways to stretch their dollar.

I'm really happy to present you guys the second video of my new series of advanced and experimental sound design techniques! It's called Convolution Processing and you can purchase it for $9.99 on Gumroad (credit card only) here, or with PayPal here
Convolution engines are used for a variety of applications these days, emulation of real acoustic spaces, sonic behavior of hardware devices and more. When used properly they can add an aura or realism to the initial sound source.
But the concept of "reality" in sound is exactly what a sound designer intends to transform, and the tools we use are as flexible as our imagination wants them to be. This is the concept I'm exploring in this video, it's besides real or unreal, it's about painting a sound with dynamically changing layers of frequencies, opening up a real-time technique that can be used to perform with sound design, rather than just being a static task like adding a plugin and let the sound pass through.
Video Workflow ▸ concept behind the technique ▸ recording and editing of custom impulse responses ▸ recording of initial instrumental part ▸ setup of the rhythmic-oriented processing ▸ detailed function of each individual plugin chain ▸ rhythmic part performance ▸ setup of the tonal-oriented processing ▸ detailed function of each individual plugin chain ▸ final performance ▸ final notes.
// These two tracks further illustrate how Convolution Processing works:
// Here's what other musicians say about Convolution Processing:
"I'm really enjoying Diego Stocco's sound design tutorials. There's no flab or boilerplate – he gets straight to work, making and mutating sounds. Whether you're a sound designer or a songwriter, you'll find plenty to inspire you." Guy Sigsworth (composer, producer and songwriter: Björk, Imogen Heap, Madonna)
"Diego has been working at the forefront of music sound design for years. He is fearless in his approach in inventing new techniques and never heard before sounds. By watching his videos you will be inspired to create your own sounds. You will realize that he uses tools that are available to almost everybody. You just need to be brave enough to venture out beyond calling up presets." Kim Planert (film/tv composer: Missing, Castle, The Unit, Lie To Me)
"In my opinion, one of the leaders in the field of organic audio experimentation and design. From building many of his own instruments, the constant creative use of microphones and now the helpful step by step process with these videos, Diego continues to impress me. At the core of it, most importantly for me, he shows the joy in it all. That's what will keep you going in your own personal dance with sound. Brendan Angelides/Eskmo (producer, remixer, live artist: Ancestor, Ninja Tune, Warp)
I also want to use this occasion to send out a huge thanks to all of you for the initial support and encouragement, many of you wrote me and shared some unique works inspired by "Rhythmic Processing". I was also glad to hear (as I was hoping it would happen) that you were able to personalize this technique on different DAWs like Cubase, Logic, Pro Tools and Reaper.
A note about my videos, if you're still learning the basics of your DAW and in general just moving your first steps into the sound design field, I would suggest enriching your knowledge level a little bit before diving into my Feedforward Sounds series, but if you feel ready for it, feel free to explore FFS02 // Convolution Processing, you can purchase it for $9.99 on Gumroad (credit card only) here, or with PayPal here.
Once again, I hope you guys will enjoy this second advanced sound design technique and feel inspired to create something unique!
Thank you!
UPDATE: I expanded the concept of rhythmic processing through convolution and came up with a set of 200 brand new Impulse Responses made from organic sounding sources and materials like metal, glass, paper, rubber, wood, water, etc.. organized into 10 sonic themes.
These are specifically designed for the processing of rhythmic elements and instruments like drum machines, real drums and percussions, beat boxing and in general instruments that have a percussive quality. You can purchase "FFS // Rhythmic Convolutions" for $29.99 on Gumroad (credit card only) here, or with PayPal here.
I always encourage you guys to create your own personalized material, but if you wish to get started by using optimized Impulse Responses, by getting the ones that I created for "FFS // Rhythmic Convolutions" you'll see right away how these can be made. You might have noticed that working with convolution engines can be a bit of a guess sometimes, you might be imagining that a certain Impulse Response will create a certain effect, but when you try it, the result might be way off.
Furthermore, recording and optimizing Impulse Responses takes a considerable amount of time (on top of coming up with ideas on what sources to record), so if you're in middle of a musical project and need to get stuff done quickly, "FFS // Rhythmic Convolutions" is a way to access right away to 200 Impulse Responses already organized by type of material and ready to be used. In this video demo you can hear some of them and see how to use them, enjoy!
Purchase "FFS // Rhythmic Convolutions" for $29.99 on Gumroad (credit card only) here, or with PayPal here.
P. S. Here you can find out about the first technique: Rhythmic Processing

Foothills Bank & Trust is headquartered in Maryville and is the 98th largest bank in the state of Tennessee. It is also the 3,236th largest bank in the nation. It was established in 2007 and as of March of 2014, it had grown to 33 employees at 3 locations. Foothills Bank & Trust has a A+ health rating.
I have been pleased with my experience with this bank. They take time to actually know their customers by name. They work with me on any questions or issues I have and get them resolved promptly. Because they know me they work with me. I recently switched from another bank. I changed one automatic payment to this bank but was told the transaction would come out of the old bank that month because I had made the change late in the month. However, the payment was taken from this new bank. They refunded the overdraft fee when I explained what had happened (and deposited a check to cover it). My old bank would never have done that.
The Texas Ratio is an indicator of how much capital a bank has available compared to the total value of loans considered at risk. As of March 31, 2014 Foothills Bank & Trust had $981,000 in non-current loans and owned real-estate with $20.5 million in equity and loan loss allowances on hand to cover it. This gives Foothills Bank & Trust a Texas Ratio of 4.79% which is excellent. Any bank with a Texas Ratio near or greater than 100% is considered at risk.
The Texas Ratio for Foothills Bank & Trust experienced no significant changes from 4.71% as of March 31, 2013 to 4.79% as of March 31, 2014, resulting in a negative change of 1.67%. This indicates that the balance sheet and financial strength for Foothills Bank & Trust has had no significant changes in recent periods.
In the past year, Foothills Bank & Trust has increased its total deposits by $22.19 million, resulting in 16.12% growth for the year. A strong track record of growth is an indicator of consumer confidence and the bank's ability to strengthen its balance sheet. The growth Foothills Bank & Trust has shown is excellent.
Both FDIC and NCUA consider capitalization levels of banks and credit unions to be of high importance. Higher capitalization allows for a greater buffer when cover loans that may fail in the future. Foothills Bank & Trust has $184.82 million in assets with $20.5 million in equity, resulting in a capitalization level of 11.09%, which is excellent.

My Entry into the TOFA 2010 hosted at Albinoblacksheep.com
The theme for the first round was "Backwards day" and thus we had to make an animation in 18 days centered around that theme, these tend to be SHORT so here's my horrid effort.
I got a little too ambishous by trying to do everything frame by frame in the amount of time we had so some tween abuse was used near the end, which to me kinda ruined it quality wise.
Feel free to pass on critique on the animation side of things, ah needs improvements~
