Blinkbox runs tactical Di Matteo campaign
By Nick Batten, campaignlive.co.uk, Monday, 26 November 2012 10:25AM
Blinkbox, the Tesco owned video-on-demand service, has run a tactical ad around the sacking of former Chelsea manager, Roberto Di Matteo.
Di Matteo was unceremoniously sacked by the football club last week after a recent run of poor form, despite him winning the FA Cup and Champions League last season.
The ad – which appeared below an article concerning his recent sacking at the hands of Roman Abramovich – ran with the strapline, "In between jobs?" The ad caption read: "Don't worry Roberto, we've got the latest movies and TV shows to help take your mind off things".
The ad, which ran last week and was planned by Arena Media, offerered £5 free credit for those who joined Blinkbox on the day. It was created by Karmarama.
Karmarama recently launched its first work for the brand which featured a struggling boxer whose fortunes are turned around after the cornerman showed him the latest releases between rounds.

Sacramento warrant triggered Hoquiam shooting
An officer's wounding, a 20-hour standoff and the suspect's fiery death were triggered when Hoquiam police were asked to arrest a couple wanted in Sacramento in a 9-year-old case.
The Associated Press
An officer's wounding, a 20-hour standoff and the suspect's fiery death were triggered when Hoquiam police were asked to arrest a couple wanted in Sacramento in a 9-year-old case.
The man who was shot to death by police Thursday used fake ID, and the Grays Harbor County coroner said Friday he was still working on identification.
The man died of multiple gunshot wounds to the head and trunk, Coroner Dan Burns said.
Hoquiam officers went to the Hoquiam home Tuesday to arrest a couple on a warrant from the Sacramento County district attorney's office accusing them of real estate fraud in 2004, said Grays Harbor County Undersheriff Dave Pimentel.
Officers arrested Nina Marlowe, 53, who is in jail, awaiting extradition, he said.
The warrant also named Rick Marlowe, 49, but the man at the home had a Washington driver's license in the name of Ray Mahailovich.
Officers left but returned Wednesday to arrest him. Police say he engaged in a shootout and wounded Sgt. Jeff Salstrom. Salstrom was treated at a hospital for a hip wound and released.
The suspect retreated into the home for a standoff that went through the night. More than 100 officers surrounded the home and fired tear gas and flash-bang grenades inside. Police said the man inside wore a gas mask and ballistic helmet.
The standoff ended just before dawn Thursday when the house caught fire.
The armed man appeared at the front door and was shot when he refused commands to drop his weapon.
Whether he fired at the officers is part of the investigation, Pimentel said. Also under investigation is how the fire started he said.

Stores & Spaces (159)
Now even Dubai does discount
Thanks to its success, the planned expansion of Dubai's only discount shopping mall has been met with interest from retailers.
Why it matters
Despite a warning of an oversupply of retail space from the Middle East Council of Shopping Centres, along with the tightening of consumer spending, the Dubai Outlet Mall has announced expansion plans. In a city where being the first individual to purchase the latest item at full price is actually a badge of honour worn proudly, what will this mean for the same retailers in other malls? Is this the start of a flood of budget stores invading Dubai?

There's been a design trend in the last decade that focused on open space offices. Even though it is seen to encourage communication between employees, a recent user study has also highlighted that it may be harder for workers to focus. An inventor designed and created a device named 'Efi'. It consists of a connected space divider which enables office employees to isolate themselves when they need to concentrate. Lowering down the ring enables them to isolate from physical noise (visual and phonic) but also from digital noise by filtering data receipt (e-mails, phone calls, instant messages, etc.). Efi's system is made up of two elements : an online service where the employee will define his data filtering parameters and an adjustable space divider which works as a tangible interface with the online service.

When you appeal from a trial court in Mississippi, you're allowed to file a 50-page brief (or longer, if you get the court to allow it). Your opponent can file a 50-page brief. And then you get 25 pages for a reply brief.
Whichever side loses, gets to file a motion for rehearing. Under MRAP 40, this is not supposed to simply be the-same-argument-but-louder.
The motion shall state with particularity the points of law or fact which, in the opinion of the movant, the court has overlooked or misapprehended and shall contain such argument in support of the motion as movant desires to present. The motion for rehearing should be used to call attention to specific errors of law or fact which the opinion is thought to contain; the motion for rehearing is not intended to afford an opportunity for a mere repetition of the argument already considered by the court.
This motion is also a prerequisite to anyone aggrieved by a decision of the state Court of Appeals who wants to take his case to the state Supreme Court; you can't be reviewed on certiorari unless the COA has moved for rehearing.
These motions can take months or years to be heard, and we suspect it probably doesn't help that the rules allow them to be 25 pages long. Invariably, our advice on drafting a motion for rehearing is to get it clear in the very first paragraph what the opinion supposedly got wrong. Does anyone really need 25 pages to say what's wrong with an opinion that was probably shorter than that?
The Fifth Circuit requires motions for rehearing to be no more than 15 pages. A petition for certiorari to the MSSC has to be no more than 10 pages. Would 10 or 15 pages be a more appropriate maximum length for a rehearing motion, where you've got the original briefs available to cite ("see the argument at pages 21-22″)? In the rare event that a longer motion was truly needed, one could apply for more pages, just as with a brief.

From No Grits No Glory:
Brianna fled down South to Savannah to escape the voices of the dead. Just when she thought she'd left all paranormal things behind, she discovers her house is haunted—by a family of Southern ghosts. These persistent beings not only hide her white shoes after Labor Day, but they wreak havoc on her life to convince her to help them bring their killer to justice. Steven put Savannah in his rearview mirror years ago to follow his passion for music. When his band splits up and he can't reach his little sister for weeks, he races home—only to learn his whole family died in a mysterious house fire. The house Brianna now lives in. Together, Brianna and Steven learn who murdered Steven's family and become caught in a web of intrigue that will threaten their careers, their homes--but especially their lives.

Fearing the Depths of Pain & Panic
in Psychology
I have traveled to Hell and Back so often I have frequent flyer miles. As such, I have soul full of toxic and lethal pain.
I fear how this pain may rear its ugly head: anger, addiction, infidelity.
Behaviors express emotion. Behaviors fulfill needs. When your soul is loaded with pain and panic you need to escape that pain and panic; only issues is God knows just what you are capable of doing to express those emotions.
Tonight, I candidly and cathartically discuss the fears I have about how my pain will eventually be expressed while at the same time fears that that pain will never subside.

Paycheck SLAVES and the Road to Freedom. Creating your Escape $1 at a time.
in Finance
Slavery exists where a person is in bondage to something and cannot express free choice.
Drug and alcohol addicts know their habit is potentially fatal, yet they reach for the next hit. Those who sell this stuff are willing to give free samples and create the environment to trap those whose goal is an unreal flight of fantasy, a trip to the pain-free stratosphere. Play in that stratosphere long enough, and the strongest person will slip into the zone of slavery, and then the reality sets in, but escape is almost impossible.
Some hate their jobs yet are just as addicted to the paycheck, and stay for their next hit. That next pay-date, when for maybe 24 hours, all is well with the world. Too often, like the drug and alcohol high, this joy is also very temporary and the pain rush returns creating a cycle where you hang in there for the next payday, anticipating the temporary escape from the pain. This show is not for those who love their jobs, or for those who already know the freedom of doing what you love no matter how well, or how poorly it pays. This show is for those who love their paycheck, and hate their jobs.
There is a way to create your escape one dollar at a time. Few will take this road, because as much as the idea of freedom is appealing, the golden handcuffs of the paycheck yanks them back in fear. The painful known seems easier than the unknown path to freedom. Believing the road exists, that you can walk it, and read the destination requires a faith that has been stripped away the longer the paycheck golden handcuffs are on. Yet, some do take the first step, then the second, and the third. Learn How.

This show's objective is perpetuate peace among all people, as the foundation of all universes is based on "Mitakuye Oyas'in". The Lakota Star Knowledge definition of "Mitakuye Oyas'in" is that before you can be at peace with all the relatives throughout all universes, you must first have peace among all the relatives within your own inner universe. The mind, body, soul and emotions are all connected to each other. When you do your best in nurturing these four parts, you will establish peace within yourself. Only then are you able to be at peace with all creation around you.

TARRYTOWN, N.Y. -- U.S. Rep. Nita M. Lowey, D-Westchester/Rockland, ranking Democrat on the House Appropriations Committee, has requested that Internal Revenue Service Commissioner John Koskinen exempt grants for noise reduction related to the Tappan Zee Bridge construction from taxable income.
"The construction of the new Tappan Zee Bridge is one of the largest infrastructure projects underway in the United States and represents a substantial improvement for the 50 million motorists who cross the bridge annually," said Lowey in her letter to Koskinen.
"However, a construction project of this size is not without its hardships, and homeowners who reside close to the project will be negatively affected by the substantial construction noise. These residents deserve the right to the quiet enjoyment of their property."
A program called The New NY Bridge Community Benefits Program is making $1.7 million in grants available to eligible residents of Tarrytown, South Nyack and Grandview for sound-reducing windows and doors.
"It is essential that my constituents are not penalized by the IRS for taking advantage of grant funding to mitigate the construction of the new Tappan Zee Bridge," Lowey added.

Maccabi Haifa_311.
(photo credit:Asaf Kliger and Adi Avishai)
Surging Maccabi Haifa can move to within five points of the Premier League
summit on Saturday with a win over floundering Hapoel Acre at Kiryat Eliezer
Stadium.The Greens occupied 13th place out of 14 teams after nine
matches, trailing league-leader Maccabi Tel Aviv by 14 points at the
time.However, since Arik Benado replaced Reuven Atar as coach, Haifa has
gone unbeaten in eight matches, thrashing Ashdod SC 4-1 on Sunday for its sixth
win in its past seven encounters.The victory over Ashdod took the Greens
up to third place above Yossi Mizrahi's men and Haifa's title hopes are alive
and kicking once more."There was a time when the players didn't enjoy
themselves here, but now there is a good atmosphere and good results to match,"
a cheerful Benado said on Thursday."Acre began the season well, but has
struggled recently.However, they have some dangerous players and we must
be ready mentally and play aggressively so that we can build on our recent
form."While Haifa has amassed a total goal difference of 12-2 in
Benado's eight matches in charge, Acre has lost its past four encounters, going
winless in its last 11 games while conceding 19 goals and scoring just
six.Hapoel Tel Aviv can leapfrog Maccabi Tel Aviv into first place for
at least 48 hours on Saturday with a win at Bnei Sakhnin.Hapoel required
an 88thminute goal by Omer Damari to beat Hapoel Ramat Hasharon 1-0 last week
and snap a fourgame winless streak.Maccabi, which hosts Hapoel Beersheba
on Monday, could only manage a 0-0 draw at Ironi Kiryat Shmona, meaning the gap
at the top was reduced to a mere two points.Sakhnin had its three-match
winning streak ended by a 2-1 loss at Hapoel Ramat Gan last week, but it has
lost just once over its past seven home games at Doha Stadium.Also
Saturday, rock-bottom Hapoel Haifa and fellow-struggler Maccabi Netanya will
look to build on last week's rare wins.Haifa visits Kiryat Shmona on
Saturday after claiming just its second win of the campaign over Bnei Yehuda,
while Netanya hosts Ashdod SC.Netanya beat Beersheba 3-1 last week for

Mississippi's Batesville Casket plant to expand
Regional Report
Send this to a friend
- Carolyne Park
PANOLA, Miss. -- Hillenbrand Industries, Inc., is expanding its Batesville Casket plant here as the company works to reduce overall manufacturing costs.
The company is closing its Nashua, N.H., plant and consolidating production with the Mississippi plant in an effort expected to cost $4.4 million.
It is not yet clear how many employees will be affected by the move, says Wendy Wilson, Hillenbrand vice president of investor relations. The company is encouraging New Hampshire employees to relocate to Panola at the company's expense.
The consolidation is expected to be complete by July 2006.
$2 million in charges incurred from the move will affect the company's third quarter 2005 financial results, and the remaining $2.4 million will occur between now and the closing of the New Hampshire plant next year.
Ultimately, the move is expected to save the company $4.3 million annually.
Batesville Casket improved efficiency at its Panola plant, allowing increased production capabilities there, says Batesville Casket CEO Ken Camp. The decision to consolidate was spurred in part by rising material costs and increased demand for veneer caskets. Solid wood casket production at the New Hampshire plant will be moved to the more efficient Panola facility.
Batesville Casket is the largest manufacturer of bronze, copper, stainless steel, steel and hardwood caskets. The company currently has five plants in five states and employs more than 3,500 people.
Batesville, Ind.-based Hillenbrand (NYSE: HB), Batesville Casket's parent company, owns and operates companies that manufacture products for the health care and funeral service industries.
Winchester named First Citizens chairman
DYERSBURG -- Katie Winchester has been named chairman of the board of First Citizens Bancshares, Inc., parent company of First Citizens National Bank.
Winchester succeeds Stallings Lipford, who had served as chairman since 1984. Winchester will continue to serve as president and CEO in her new role. Lipford was named chairman emeritus.
Winchester has been with First Citizens since 1961, steadily rising through the ranks of the company. She joined the board of directors in 1990, was named president in 1992 and CEO in 1996. She also serves on the board of trustees and corporate board of Baptist Memorial Health Care Corp.
Since 1992, First Citizens has grown through acquisitions and the establishment of new branches to become one of the largest community banks in West Tennessee. The company has 18 offices in 12 towns in and around the Memphis metropolitan statistical area. First Citizens' net income has grown from $2.4 million to more than $8.4 million.
As of March 31, First Citizens had 226 full-time employees and total assets of more than $775 million.
ITT opening new brake pad facility in Searcy
SEARCY, Ark. -- A 136,000-square-foot brake pad manufacturing facility is the region's latest addition to the growing automotive industry corridor.
ITT Industries, Inc., will invest $10 million in the facility this year, and an estimated $24.2 million over the next five years. The plant, expected to be in operation by July, will have 30 employees in 2005, expanding to 80 in coming years.
Company officials say increased demand in the automotive industry has spurred the need for a new production facility. Brake pads produced at the plant will be sold throughout North America under the Koni name.
Headquartered in White Plains, N.Y., ITT Industries is a manufacturer of specialty products and services, including water treatment, defense communication and information technology. The company reported $6.8 billion in sales last year.

The Kiwis have copped a pasting from the British media for their inept performance in the Rugby League World Cup final in Manchester.
The local scribes didn't hold back in analysing a woeful New Zealand effort as they were embarrassed 34-2 by Australia, meekly surrendering their world crown at Old Trafford.
The Kiwis had scraped into the final with Shaun Johnson's last-gasp converted try against England a week earlier. That took the sting out of the tournament finale from a British perspective and surely England could have put up a better effort than the Kiwis did yesterday as they were swamped by five unanswered tries.
"New Zealand were outplayed, overpowered and overawed by their great rivals on the grand stage," James Riach wrote in The Guardian.
"Tim Sheens's side were unstoppable... New Zealand, who boast a wealth of attacking riches, never even came close to scoring," he said.
"New Zealand were bereft of ideas."
Peter Macgill, writing in the Lancashire Telegraph, didn't hold back.
"Not even the Rocky scriptwriters could have helped New Zealand get off the deck and overcome their Australian tormentors," he wrote.
"Pity really, as such a successful tournament, which has captured the imaginations of most neutral sports fans, almost deserved a more captivating concluding contest.
"But the Green and Gold machine ground the Kiwis into fine pate and served up a reminder that their recipe for revenge has been in the chiller since 2008.
"Like most homegrown fans, I had a hankering for a Kiwi repeat victory, even despite England's semi-final heartache seven days ago.
"But when you witness a rugby league masterclass, a perfect indictment of mind over muscle, even I'm willing to tip the hat to the all-conquering Kangaroos."
The Mirror hailed the Kangaroos for "a complete and utter decimation of their southern hemisphere rivals".
While it marvelled at Billy Slater's attacking genius, it felt the Australian defence was key.
"Most impressively, Australia kept their tryline intact for the fifth successive match," the Mirror said.
"Only England managed to score tries against Tim Sheens' team, who achieved a feat that even eluded the 1982 Invincibles.
"It was all something of an anti-climax as the curtain fell on the 14th and most successful World Cup."
The BBC's Paul Fletcher described the Kangaroos as "clinical" and said they had put up a "near-faultless display".
Of the Kiwis, he said: "They were a poor second against the Kangaroos.
"The crowd of 74,468 was a record for an international fixture and most seemed to be backing New Zealand, but they had little choice except to admire the breathtaking play of the Kangaroos."
Jonathan Davies, the BBC's league expert, added: "Australia did the simple things and I thought their kicking game was immense.''
"They got away from their line easily and when the chances came, they took them. They were fantastic and I haven't seen such a one-sided display for a long, long time."
The Telegraph's league writer Ian Chadband chose to praise the Kangaroos rather than add more scorn on the Kiwis.
He likened the Australian league side to New Zealand's rugby champions.
"The statistics do not lie," Chadband wrote.
"Since their World Cup final defeat five years ago, they have lost only one test in 25.
"We have just said farewell to an All Blacks side, among the best union sides we have seen, and these Kangaroos need to be mentioned in the same breath now."

So When Does Kermit The Frog Marry Fozzie Bear?
Via Townhall comes the news that the Muppets aren't going to feature an episode where Miss Piggy chops someone in the face for stealing her delicious Chick Fil-A sandwich.
"The Jim Henson Company has celebrated and embraced diversity and inclusiveness for over fifty years and we have notified Chick-Fil-A that we do not wish to partner with them on any future endeavors," the company said in a statement posted on their official Facebook page.
The Henson company, named after the creator of lovable characters like Kermit the Frog and Miss Piggy, supplied their Creature Shop Muppet toys to Chick-Fil-A for children's meal packages but decided to sever ties after recent statements by the fast-food chain's Chief Executive Dan Cathy.
Cathy told the Baptist Press in a recent interview the company supported the "traditional family," and "the biblical definition of the family unit."
If Jim Henson wants to have Kermit marry Fozzie Bear in a ceremony presided over by Beaker in assless chaps, far be it from me to criticize that. Actually, come to think of it, I would criticize the hell out of that. But for now, let me just note that it's sad that Jim Henson doesn't think the Muppets should be associated with Chick-Fil-A because it's taken a pro-Christian, pro-family stand. Christians should keep that in mind before they allow their children to be exposed to the Muppets.

Don't fret if you didn't camp out at the Apple store over the weekend to nab an iPad 2 before the much-hyped tablet sold out. While great praise has been heaped upon Apple's newest gadget, it's not without its faults. Here are four things bloggers and tech critics are griping about:
1. Light leaks
Some users have noted issues with light leaking around the edges of the tablet's display, creating a band of light around the screen's perimeter that fades toward the center of the device. Others have observed patchy yellow discoloration, which could be related to the light leak problem. "From the look of various support and community forums, neither of these issues is widespread," says Josh Lowensohn at CNET. But, with the tablet having just gone on sale, "it's too early to make that call."
2. Mediocre screen
Tech followers had high hopes that the new iPad 2 would have the same ultrahigh-resolution retina screen as the iPhone 4. No dice. The failure to improve upon the original iPad's screen in some way is "a literally glaring omission," says Stewart Wolpin at Techlicious. "Amazon has made and will continue to make marketing hay over iPad's poor performance in daylight relative to the Kindle, which the iPad 2 doesn't improve upon."
3. Lackluster tech specs
Yes, the "iPad 2 just seriously raised the bar on sleek, sexy computer hardware," says Joshua Topolsky at Engadget, but its tech specs are lacking. The iPad 2 has 512MB of RAM, but I think "a device in this class should probably be sporting 1GB." In many ways, the new specs are just more of the same. "There's nothing here that is totally mind-blowing."
4. Bad camera
"Apple didn't do us any favors with cameras on the iPad 2," says Wolpin. Unlike the beautiful 5-megapixel HDR camera on the latest iPhones, the iPad 2 cameras both have less than 1 megapixel, making for dull, grainy shots. They're "really pretty bad" cameras, says Topolsky.

KIA Cold Hawaii PWA World Cup: Day 7
As if it knew it was time to stop, the wind dropped for the closing day of the 2012 Cold Hawaii PWA World Cup in Klitmøller on Sunday, after a week of tough competition between the best 43 wave windsurfers in the world. After three successful years of competition, Klitmøller, for decades a place of pilgrimage for the windsurfers in the know, is now firmly on the professionals trail.
"It's an established part of the tour now," Rich Page, the PWA tour manager, said. "Klitmøller was an event that that had been years in the development phases working with Rasmus Johnsen (head of new media and technology at the Active Institute at the University of Aarhus) and then later with Robert (Sand, the event manager). So that when it came to fruition it was very well organised.
The 'T's had been crossed and the 'I's dotted and that gave it a solid foundation. It was never going to be a flash in the pan. That hard work has paid off and we expect it to continue to grow."
And grow it has, driving a digital revolution in the sport. In their inaugural year in 2010, the organisers of Cold Hawaii brought live streaming video technology to the windsurfing World Cup for the first time and this year the introduction of live scoring by the PWA has helped revolutionise the sport.

I have hundreds of recipes, and most are written on the original recipe cards, even decades after I jotted them down or someone gave them to me. The problem now is that my "reading" glasses have just become my glasses, and I find myself struggling to read the faded print. That was the case when I pulled out the card that holds the recipe for Sweet Bean Casserole. I ended up rewriting it so I could actually read it the next time. So, in the process I decided to share this family favorite.
A variety of different beans makes this dish unique. And it is as simple as opening cans — no soaking or sorting. The sweet and tangy sauce has a touch of bacon and gives it a delicious smoky taste. Beans are such a healthy and high protein food and yet we rarely enjoy them as our main dish. This casserole could change that and may have you begging for more.
Belle's Smoky and Sweet Bean Casserole
1 small onion, peeled and chopped
½ pound ground beef
¼ cup chopped bacon
½ cup ketchup
¾ cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon pepper
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1 teaspoon yellow mustard
1 (15 ounce) can pork and beans
1 (15 ounce) can chick peas (garbanzo beans), drained
1 (15 ounce) can kidney beans, drained
1 (15 ounce) can lima beans, drained
Brown the onion and ground beef and drain off the grease. Mix together the bacon, ketchup, brown sugar, salt, pepper, vinegar and mustard. In a separate bowl, combine the beans, ground beef and onion. Pour the sauce over the bean mixture and stir to coat well. Place in a 9-by-13-inch baking pan. Bake at 350 for 30 minutes.
