2014 is almost coming to an end and it is that time for all marketers to look out and observe what all the 'gurus' / 'pandits' / experts are saying about whats in store for next year. As a marketing professional who is responsible for Thought Leadership content – the topic of 'content marketing' is very close to my heart, and 'core to my professional responsibilities'. So when I came across an interesting infographic on 2015 Content Marketing trends, I could not resist sharing on my blog. So here goes:

Online, Digital, Social – 9 Insights from the lens of a Marketer
A few months ago, I was in conversation with the CEO of a multi-billion$ global consumer goods company. One of the topics of discussion was around online, digital and social strategies that the enterprise was embarking on (yes! They are some-what "old school" in operations even in 2014 and as I learned there are so many companies who are NOT ONLINE, NOT adopting DIGITAL, and NOT really SOCIAL – and many are successful with impressive growth targets), and the conversation got exceptionally interesting when we spoke about the below questions:
- Is there a boundary between online, digital and social strategies?
- Does business strategy drive online marketing strategy?
- Does digital drive social?
- Does social drive digital?
The questions stayed with me..
A few days later, I was in discussion with another entrepreneur friend who runs a successful manufacturing unit which has a diversified business portfolio of apparel manufacturing and agricultural machinery. He was planning to launch a social campaign and again had some basic questions
- Is online marketing necessary?
- Digital / Social marketing – What first and What second? Why?
And then a few days back I had the opportunity to connect with a high-end fashion designer who again asked me the same question?
- Should I do social? Which social channels?
- Should I have a digital marketing strategy?
All led to long long long conversations and some interesting insights. Before I get into my views, I did some online research on the basic definitions.. Sharing snippets I found relevant:
Online Marketing (or Internet Marketing) refers to a set of powerful tools and methodologies used for promoting products and services through the Internet. Online marketing includes a wider range of marketing elements than traditional business marketing due to the extra channels and marketing mechanisms available on the Internet.
Digital Marketing refers to any marketing delivered via an online platform or involving an interactive response channel including mobile. Digital marketing is: Building awareness and promoting a brand or product using all available digital channels
Social Media is the social interaction among people in which they create, share or exchange information and ideas in virtual communities and networks.
Without much ado, let me now share my key insights from the lens of a marketer
(1) Business Strategy should drive the Marketing Strategy; and Marketing insights can drive Business Strategy For e.g: If your business strategy is to provide a portfolio of products and services to your customers, your marketing strategy should be aligned accordingly. And if your marketing insights indicate that your customers want you to add a new service, then your business strategy should be open to the consideration
(2) Marketing initiatives should ALWAYS be based on marketing objectives
(3) Online, Digital and Social Media Marketing are marketing channels and a marketing strategy. The boundaries blur. Below is a conceptual view
Online Marketing examples include web-sites, blogs, SEO (Search Engine Optimization), SEM (Search Engine Marketing), online ads, e-mail marketing, online Press Release (PR)
Social Media Marketing examples include leveraging social media platforms like Twitter, FaceBook, LinkedIn for your marketing and promotional activities
Offline Marketing examples include print ads, Press Release, Direct Mail, Telemarketing, etc.
Real-world Social Marketing refers to marketing through 'real-world' social interactions and conversations at events, word-of-mouth publicity, etc.
(4) It is (near) impossible to show quantitative ROI (Return on Investment) for every marketing initiative – specially for Internet Marketing initiatives. In marketing parlance, the qualitative ROI can be subtle, long-term and not directly attributable. Below is an good way to showcase ROI
[Src: http://www.infographicsshowcase.com/roi-on-internet-marketing-services-infographic/ ]
(5) "No Money Marketing" is often misunderstood. It is NOT about ZERO $ marketing spend, but optimally leveraging marketing channels coupled with creative marketing strategies to have maximum customer reach and impact in line with marketing objectives
(6) Social and Digital – What comes first? : It depends on your business, and your understanding of social and digital. I know of companies whose digital strategy drove their social media marketing strategies, and I know of companies whose social strategy drove their digital initiatives. Suffice to say, the digital world and social world are closely coupled and if you do one, you (or / and the ecosystem you're a part of – like partners, customers, community, suppliers) also make inroads into the other. In most cases, Social Media Marketing is a sub-set of Digital Marketing.
(7) The choice of which social channels to use depends completely on your social media objectives and where your customers are. Don't do Social because everyone is doing social and because it is the new buzzword. Do it because you believe it will add value to your business and marketing
(8) It is better not to start social media initiatives if you don't have a long term plan, management commitment and the "right brains" behind your social initiatives. Too many companies start and stop too soon, and that impacts your brand negatively
(9) Digital and Social are evolving and will continue to evolve. Everyone is learning, so be open to learning, failing and course-corrections. That is the only way to succeed.

Viral Content | A Marketer's Dream, Dare, Delight or Doom?
"Viral Content" – Those 2 words can be the dream, dare, delight or doom for many a marketer.
A dream because you aspire for it
A dare because you can't really say for sure if your content will go viral
A delight because if it does, then you are bound to be a hero / shero of some sort, in some circles
A doom because if it does not, then you are bound to be viewed with a critical lens, in some circles
And the reality of today is that "viral content" is probably the fastest & most cost-effective way to get your message out in the market place.
There are ample examples of content gone viral that it must seen easy to repeat the formula. But it is not so simple…
In this post, I am sharing from my personal experience as a content consumer what truly differentiates viral content from the rest
(1) A catchy compelling title : In today's day of explosive content, you need to have a title which compels a reader to stop-by your content. The title has to be unique, inviting, enticing and engaging – And most important have mass appeal! Phew – Tough one to crack!
(2) Touching an emotional chord with a reader : From my personal experience, almost every piece of viral content that I've come across touched an emotional chord with a reader, i.e., it brought out a deep human emotion in a reader – joy, surprise, fear, contempt, disgust, sadness or anger
(3) Timing of your post : The timing of when you publish your content is critical, and surely acts as an enabler in riding with current trends and sentiments.
(4) The Zing and Zest of the post itself : I mean the content itself has to be unique, new, relevant, positive and refreshing in its message and in articulation. Pictures / Videos are definitely more effective, but there are blog posts and even tweets which have gone viral, so it really depends on the content
In this post, I'm sharing a round-up on the many views / perspectives written on the subject of "viral content". You'd think after reading all of these – I now know the magic mantra and am on my way to create the "viral content" of tomorrow. How I wish! :) In spite / Despite so much written on the subject, this is a tough one to crack, and even all the "Content Gurus" don't seem to have a consensus.
Nevertheless, let me share the posts..

CMO – Chief Marketing Officer or Cheap Marketing Officer?
Its the close of another year 2013. And looking back, I can definitely say that Marketing is increasingly becoming a very important function across the globe – Be it books, schools, services, organizations, individuals, social media, e-commerce, consumer goods, etc etc etc – You name it , and there are ample examples of how marketing made all the DIFFERENCE! And organizations are cognizant of it! And with that, the role of the CMO (Chief Marketing Officer) is increasingly becoming more important and powerful!
But then there's the other side of the coin. The one in which as a marketing professional – I can't help but rant about the constant pressures, advice and suggestions on cutting marketing costs year-on-year!
Don't get me wrong! Let me make my point with a few examples of situations which most marketing professionals typically face:
Scenario 1 – Its start of the year. The time when everyone in an organization does a grand budgeting exercise. And most marketing teams work on their plans and budgets for the year. In most instances, only a partial marketing budget approval in received ; And that too 1 – 2 months into the year (So precious time is lost!). After all, time is money; and since most marketing teams are lean – This "lost time" significantly adds up to "loss of productive and tangible output"
And then when any marketing expense is to be accounted, it needs "management approval" – which involves putting up a business case, and providing explanation of Why? – What? – How?. And then comes the "approval" / "questions" / "rejection" – Again, usually delayed (So precious time lost again). All the precious time lost in waiting for approvals is completely unaccounted!
Scenario 2 – Everyone wants to go Social. Everyone wants to have a grand social media presence. Everyone wants to drive customer engagement on Social media. And they expect the current marketing teams (In most cases – who have limited / no knowledge on Social Media) to make Social a success, with limited / no additional budgets at all. Does the math add up? Of course, NOT!
Social Media is a different "Beauty and Beast" – As you want to call it! And the beauty needs to be enhanced, and the beast needs to be tamed. And that's not the core skill of every marketer – especially if what you do on Social is "real-time" and has "global reach and impact". So the best way to do Social is to hire consultants to guide you on how to do it OR hire experts to do it for you OR Go slow on the Social strategy. Expecting current marketing teams who don't understand Social to define a "brilliant Social Media strategy" for your organization may not in your organization's best interests! And then, investing in the right Social Media tools also come at a price.
Whatever you pick – It comes with good & bad – Be cognizant of this!
So coming back to why I started this post – The point is increasingly a significant majority of individuals and enterprises want to "cut down" on "marketing costs". Some of the most common explanation is – "Go online", "Go social", "Go lean"
yes Sir, yes Madam -
We can look at cutting costs,
We can go online,
We can go social,
We can go lean,
But they will still cost us – in terms of minds and time (people) and tools and technology (hardware and software)
And they will come at a price – in terms of gains and losses – of customers and brand-value
Are you willing to pick up the costs?
Are you willing to pay the price?
And yeah! Till then Do you want to consider calling your CMO – Cheap Marketing Officer instead?

The Online : Offline Marketing Mix
In a recent discussion among fellow-marketers, there was a debate around getting the Online : Offline Marketing Mix right…
Some said "Online : Offline Marketing Mix should be 100 : 0″
Some said "Online : Offline Marketing Mix should be 80 : 20″
Some said "Online : Offline Marketing Mix should be 60 : 40″
Some said "Online : Offline Marketing Mix should be 50 : 50″
And it ended there. No one suggested that the Offline Marketing should exceed the Online Marketing…
After the discussion, I was mulling over this.. I mean in theory, we can all argue about the right Online : Offline marketing mix – And come up with very scientific, logical, analytical and data-driven explanations for our argument – And rightly SO!
Whatever one is trying to market – Books, Blogs, Products, Services, People, Organizations, Brands, etc.
Have we reached the level of maturity where the Online Marketing should be at the very least the same as the Offline Marketing mix?
Here's my view – The Online : Offline Marketing Mix would typically be based on:
(1) Where you're existing / potential customer's are? At the end of the day, the purpose of marketing is to reach your existing / potential customer to trigger a potential sale. And the mantra for marketing success is to reach and connect and communicate with your customers.But firstly, do you know who you're customer is? If no, then find out!
If you're customer is going to be more receptive in the online world, then do marketing online.
If you're customer is going to be more receptive in the offline world, then do marketing offline.
Take-away => Know who your customer is. Go where you're customers are. Online : Offline Marketing mix is incidental
(2) Your industry ecosystem Every industry has certain dimensions which are unique to it, and create a distinct ecosystem. For e.g: The way you market agricultural machinery is very different from the way you market a book is very different from the way you market an IT service. And the online : offline marketing mix will be influenced by the industry ecosystem. Sure, you can innovate and leverage best practice from other industries, but the core of how in industry functions takes decades to change. So ensure you're marketing strategy is aligned accordingly
Take-away => Align you Online : Offline Marketing mix in line with the industry ecosystem
(3) Your brand-image Every product / service has a brand. And a brand is really a "perception in the minds of your customer". One of the factors that influences your online : offline marketing mix is your brand image. For e.g: When I was consulting a high-end designer fashion label, the designer mentioned that she DID NOT want to do too much online marketing as it could negatively impact her brand image. She had her reasons based on her clientele – And rightly so! So we devised a marketing strategy which had significantly offline marketing, and she continues to do well today!
Take-away => Brand-image is important, personal and subjective. Ensure your Online : Offline Marketing mix is in line with your current brand image, and the brand image you want to create for the future
(4) Your marketing objective Last and most importantly, what is the specific marketing objective you are working towards? Is it awareness? Is it customer engagement? Is it sales? Is it brand re-enforcement? Is it re-positioning?.. Whatever it is, your online : offline marketing mix should be aligned with this objective.
Take-away => Your Online : Offline Marketing mix should be in line with your marketing objective
In my view, there is no one and right answer. It depends on what you're marketing objective is.

Marketing in Public Toilets?
Over the recent past, I have been surprised to find a great deal of marketing material in public toilets (in malls, at the movies, etc.) – Initially, I was surprised to even find posters, banners, even audio clips, etc. in public toilets. From soaps to laptops to clothes to footwear to exciting deals – They were all there! Initially I was surprised. But as I observed more consciously over the past few weeks, I recognized that it was intentional, and also probably a BRILLIANT MARKETING STRATEGY!
Here's why? – The Number 1 Challenge of MOST MARKETERS today is to get "CUSTOMER ATTENTION" to what you have to say… Simply because (1) Everyone has so little time; and (2) There are just so many options for any customer.. – So how do you get "customer attention" to what you want to say.
As I think logically, I guess a public toilet is a great place to get "CUSTOMER ATTENTION" /"AWARENESS" / "INTEREST" to what you have to say. Here's WHY?
(1) People have time, and their "eyes" (& "ears") open : A public toilet is one place where many people are usually found waiting, i.e., they generally have time (& no specific agenda or nothing specific to do apart from wait for your turn). And in most instances, you probably don't really like to indulge in small talk with others. So you find many people idly looking at the walls, mirrors, ceiling, etc.
Now as a MARKETER, if you recognize this window of opportunity (say 30 seconds to 3 minutes) to get customer attention on your product / service, you can use this time effectively
(2) Mobiles are a NO-NO : The other real challenge for most marketers is to get people to look / hear to what they have to say; and mobiles can be the real "villain" in getting customer's time and attention. (I mean I know of people who call their mobiles their only LOVE in LIFE!).
Here's the good news for marketers – The "villain" is usually not in the picture in a public toilet. Most people (at least from what I know) usually don't like to use their mobile phones in the toilets (Again, I personally know of exceptions here, But then there are exceptions to everything in life)
So as a MARKETER, if you recognize this window of opportunity when your target customer is without his / her mobile, you can use this time to create awareness on your product / service
(3) People are usually relaxed : The other challenge for most marketers is to connect with the customer when he / she is probably relaxed / open or in a neutral state of mind (People will more likely to listen or see any marketing material when they are relaxed / less stressed). Most people are usually relaxed after they use a public toilet, and hence are in general in a reasonably "open" state of mind to listen / see what's around them.
So again as a MARKETER, if you recognize this window of opportunity when your target customer is relaxed, you can leverage this time to generate interest in your product / service
These are the positives; and there are some negatives too
But then it is an opportunity to "connect" with your customer…
So, what's your view on MARKETING in Public Toilets

9 Must Have's for a Senior Marketing Executive
Over the past decade, technology companies have realized the importance and difference the Marketing function plays in their external brand image.
The success of the Marketing function is directly linked to two important variables:
1) The organizational priority associated with Marketing
2) The individual / team that shoulder's the Marketing responsibility
Many business leaders are often plagued with the question "What is the right profile for a Senior Marketing Executive in a Technology company?"
The Top 9 Must-Haves for a Senior Marketing Executive in a Technology Company are listed below:
1) Techno – Marketing Knowledge and Experience: A good blend of technology and marketing knowledge and experience is a definite pre-requisite. Pure marketing knowledge & experience can help one plan and strategize great marketing initiatives, but many times fall short in execution as there is a complete dependency on the technology teams. Over a period of time, this will impose severe limitations in what one can achieve. On the other hand pure technology knowledge & experience will impose restrictions in what one can even strategize from a marketing perspective. Hence, a suitable profile could be either one who has worked in a technology role for a few years, then studied Marketing and followed it up with relevant marketing experience OR one who has studied Marketing and then worked in the Marketing function of a technology company & upgraded their technology knowledge along the way. Additionally, if one has worked with a successful Senior Marketing Executive in their careers, there is a great amount of learning that can be amassed.
2) Understanding of the Organization's Marketing Philosophy: Every organization has a marketing philosophy which in unique to its overall vision, values and offerings. If one is new to an organization / the Marketing role, it is imperative that some time is invested to understand this. Clarity and comprehension on the organization's marketing philosophy go a long way in ensuring that any marketing initiative is in line with the organization's overall marketing philosophy.
3) Focused & Objective: While focus and objectivity are essential for any job function, it takes a different meaning for a marketing role. Simply because, many times the Marketing function gets limited time, support and recognition from internal stakeholders. And yet, the marketing outcome is non-negotiable. So it is important that the individual / team is focused and objective on what needs to be achieved by the Marketing Function; & continuously strive towards achieving the same.
4) Leverage New Marketing Platforms: Firstly, this requires awareness on what new / alternate marketing platforms exist & how they can be utilized to achieve the organization's marketing objectives. Secondly, openness of mind and perspective to effectively leverage these platforms for marketing. For e.g.: Social media. Quiz many Marketing executives on why they embark on certain marketing initiatives, what marketing platforms they usually leverage & what marketing channels they typically operate on; and one will realize that the only reason some of these are being used today is because of legacy, i.e., simply because they were always being done this way for several years. Thirdly, to get the buy-in of internal stakeholders to pioneer these marketing initiatives. And lastly, to successfully roll-out these initiatives.
5) Creative : Creativity is one of the most important elements of marketing. One needs to be creative in thought, creative in expression and creative in resource mobilization. If one is creative, there is no limit to what can be achieved.
6) Networking Skills : To be successful in a marketing function, great networks and relationships are vital – Both inside and outside the organization. Inside the organization, marketing executives needs to build relationships with Internal Marketing Teams, Technology Teams that they are associated with, Business Leaders, Support Functions, etc. Outside the organization, relationships with Customers, Analysts, Third party agencies, Marketing professionals in other organizations, etc. go a long way in what and how much one can achieve. While building the relationships is one side of the coin, maintaining these relationships over a period of time is the other side of the coin. And this requires intent, time and conscious efforts. But definitely, well worth it in the long run.
7) Collaborative : The real world is full of constraints. Constraints in finances, Constraints in resources, Constraints in time, etc. And one of the time tested ways to work around constraints is to collaborate. A marketing executive should successfully collaborate with internal and external teams to achieve the desired marketing objectives.
8) Holistic View of Marketing : Senior marketing executives need to maintain a fine balance between macro and micro issues of marketing. Hence, a holistic view of marketing is essential. There are some aspects of marketing which are based on hard facts, data and numbers. They can be analyzed, critiqued and objectively evaluated. However, there are some aspects of marketing which cannot be measured and quantified. They are soft. They are subjective. They are based on perceptions. And yet they really exist and make a difference. One needs to be cognizant and sensitive to these aspects of marketing and work constructively to maintain a fine equilibrium between the hard and soft aspects.
9) Personal Brand : Last but not the least, marketing executives need to have a personal brand of their own. What this means is a mind of their own, a voice of their own, and a presence of their own – Both in the real world and in the virtual world.

Ethical Marketing – What's That?
"Ethical Marketing" – I came across this word a while back, and somehow it stayed in my mind… I mean let's for a minute step back and look at the meaning of the two words in question:
Definition 1:
"Marketing is the activity, set of institutions, and processes for creating, communicating, delivering, and exchanging offerings that have value for customers, clients, partners, and society at large." BY Americal Marketing Association (AMA) Board of Directors
Definition 2:
"The science and art of exploring, creating, and delivering value to satisfy the needs of a target market at a profit. Marketing identifies unfulfilled needs and desires. It defines, measures and quantifies the size of the identified market and the profit potential. It pinpoints which segments the company is capable of serving best and it designs and promotes the appropriate products and services." BY Dr.Philip Kotler
Definition 3:
"The action or business of promoting and selling products or services."
Definition 1:
Moral principles that govern a person's or group's behavior.
Definition 2:
The moral correctness of specified conduct.
At first look, isn't there some element of inherent contradiction in the definitions itself?
I mean the purpose of any Marketing initiative is to lead into a potential sale (And a sale always has a commercial implication!). And hence the aim of any marketing initiative is to highlight the GOOD, and downplay / be silent about the NOT-SO-GOOD!
Now, let's take a look at the definition of "ETHICAL MARKETING" - According to Wikipedia, "Ethical marketing refers to the application of marketing ethics into the marketing process. Briefly, marketing ethics refers to the philosophical examination, from a moral standpoint, of particular marketing issues that are matters of moral judgment. Ethical marketing generally results in a more socially responsible and culturally sensitive business community. The establishment of marketing ethics has the potential to benefit society as a whole, both in the short- and long-term."
That's theoretically RIGHT.. But what about in practice?
Food for Thought
* Are marketers / organizations truly ethical in their marketing initiatives? If not, is it realistically possible?
* What can any organization do to promote and encourage ethical marketing? Will this come at a price?
* What can be done to get more marketers to even think and talk about "ethical marketing"?
* Will ethical marketing reduce / diminish the competitive landscape of an organization?
* Will ethical marketing impact top-line and bottom-line growth of organizations?

Zone to keep cold callers away
Published at 11:55, Friday, 16 November 2012
A 'NO cold calling' zone has been set up at Evening Hill Drive and surrounding streets in Cockermouth.
The zone, which covers around 90 homes, has been set up because of the growing number of reports about cold callers and rogue traders in the area.
Residents include a high number of vulnerable people.
Signs have been placed on lamp posts warning off rogue traders while residents have been given stickers to place on their windows to deter cold callers.
They also receive a booklet and phone number to call to alert Trading Standards.
The zone has been set up by the Cumbria County Council Trading Standards team in consultation with police.
John Greenbank, Trading Standards area manager, said: "We send out a questionnaire and if 75 per cent of people request to set up a zone we will look to do it.
"It gives residents the confidence to phone Trading Standards if they suspect someone, and we can then react immediately."
The Cockermouth zone is the third to be set up in the Allerdale council district, after launches in Keswick and Wigton.
There are now more than 7,000 homes across Cumbria that are in 'no cold calling' zones and Mr Greenbank said these areas usually showed a drop in crime and anti-social behaviour.
It is hoped that zones can be set up in Aspatria and Seaton next year.

JPSO: Shooting leaves 16-year-old dead in Marrero
Louisiana authorities say a 16-year-old boy was shot and killed in what another man described as an accident that happened while showing off a new rifle.
Jefferson Parish Sheriff's Office spokesman John N. Fortunato says in a news release that the shooting happened after 1 a.m. Sunday in Marrero.
Fortunato says authorities found Trey Stahl dead on the kitchen floor of a residence. He had been shot in the neck.
Fortunato says 23-year-old Christian Cardon, who allegedly admitted firing the gun, was booked on one count of negligent homicide.
Fortunato says Cardon told police he was showing off a new semi-automatic rifle when it accidentally discharged.
Fortunato says the investigation is ongoing.
It wasn't immediately clear if Cardon had a lawyer.

Latest from The Spokesman-Review
Vandals take spring game seriously
Idaho coach Paul Petrino met with the media today to preview the Vandals' spring game. And yes, this will be as close to a real game as you can have in the spring. More after the jump.
UI scrimmages for last time before spring game
The big takeaways from Idaho's final warmup scrimmage for Friday's spring game? Chad Chalich appears to be the No. 1 quarterback going into summer. Paul Petrino agan called his two top running backs, Kris Olugbode and Jerrel Brown, "the biggest studs" of camp. And he again appreciated the Vandals' defense flying around and making plays.
We've got a summary below.
New JC players shine in Idaho scrimmage
In Idaho coach Paul Petrino's experience, only about 50 percent of junior-college signees become dependable players. But five of the seven JC players he signed in January as early enrollees have already made big impacts this spring, and all five played well in Saturday's scrimmage.
The new JC players, particularly Kris Olugbode, are the subject of our story below. Keep reading for that and notes.
Idaho going back to Sun Belt in football
After the Idaho State Board of Education approved the University of Idaho's request to seek membership in the Sun Belt Conference, athletic director Rob Spear confirmed via Twitter that UI will join its old conference in football only in 2014. Spear tweeted: "I want to the thank our State Board of Education and Regent of the UI for approving football membership in the Sun Belt."
We've got our full story below and a few additional notes.
Report: Idaho takes steps to join Sun Belt in football
The University of Idaho this week will seek permission from the State Board of Education to join the Sun Belt Conference as a football-only member in 2014, the Idaho Statesman reported Monday. UI athletic director Rob Spear told the Statesman that the apparent invitation from the Sun Belt has brought a "sense of relief." Idaho left the Sun Belt in 2005 after four years to join the WAC, which has disintegrated with its core membership leaving for more stable conferences.
Spear told The Spokesman-Review that Idaho will likely meet with the State Board on Wednesday. The Vandals will operate as an FBS independent this fall, and they had already scheduled games as an independent for 2014.
ESPN.com reported Monday the Sun Belt will add Appalachian State and Georgia Southern in 2015. Both schools are currently in the FCS. In the story, Sun Belt comissioner Karl Benson, who brought Idaho to the WAC in 2005, said Idaho and New Mexico State were being considered by his new conference.
Vandals get hot, nudge Seattle U
Mike McChristian's day was made well before the Vandals tipped off with Seattle U. He got a surprise visit from his mother, who flew in from California just in time to watch her son drop a career-high 26 points — and go on one of the most impressive 3-point displays in recent Idaho history — in a 76-72 win.
We've got our story and notes below after the Vandals' final game of the regular season.
Idaho falls apart in second half
If Idaho's season wasn't slipping away before tonight, it certainly is now. The Vandals were poleaxed by Texas-San Antonio in the final 20 minutes of a 74-56 loss. It was another unsightly loss for UI — its fifth in six games — and suddenly the Vandals are in danger of falling into seventh place in the WAC and the play-in round of the conference tournament in two weeks.
We've got all the details below, including coach Don Verlin questioning his team's heart and effort.
Petrino on QBs, developing players
National signing day has come and gone, but below we revisit what first-year Idaho coach Paul Petrino had to say about developing players in general and quarterbacks in particular.
Read on for his revealing comments, and what they mean for the Vandals.
Vandal signing day updates
Idaho's letter of intents started rolling in early this morning. Check below to see a list of players who have signed with the Vandals. We'll keep this updated throughout the day, leading up to Paul Petrino's news conference at 1:15 p.m.
Vandals manhandled late by Utah State
After a miserable start, the Vandals went blow-for-blow with Utah State tonight. That is, until midway through the second half when the depleted Aggies pulled away for a 77-67 win at Cowan Spectrum. The bottom line: "I thought we battled for some of the game. I didn't think we battled all the game," coach Don Verlin said. "And what you've got to do to beat Utah State is battle every possession."
Verlin has coached with and against Stew Morrill enough to know what it takes to hang with the Aggies, but he admitted afterward that "I got my butt outcoached tonight." You can read more in our game story below.
Barone's huge game carries Idaho
Kyle Barone is making a strong case for WAC player of the year honors. He followed a 27-point, 16-rebound effort on Thursday with 25 points and 16 rebounds tonight in a 74-70 win over UTSA. He also made the biggest play of the night when he found Mike McChristian in the corner for a huge 3-pointer with a minute left.
That key assist late in the game? It came with Barone 10-for-10 from the field. He didn't take another shot the rest of night and set a school record for the best shooting performance from the field, eclipsing the 9-for-9 efforts from Tanoris Shepherd in 2002 and Phil Hopson in 1982.
In two games this week, Barone went 18-for-20 with 14 straight shots made. We have our game story below.
Idaho legend Anderson dies at 82
Wayne Anderson, a former player, coach, and assistant athletic director at Idaho and charter member of the Vandal Athletics Hall of Fame, died Wednesday at the age of 82. We have more below on the Spokane native's passing.
Linehan's son commits to Idaho
We have news on a new Idaho football commitment and a Vandals offensive lineman in legal trouble. Both stories are below.
Vandals add former USC walk-on QB
A week ago Idaho football coach Paul Petrino said the Vandals weren't likely to add a junior-college quarterback who would compete in spring camp. But that changed this past weekend, when the Vandals signed former USC preferred walk-on Anthony Neyer. The 6-foot-2, 215-pound junior-to-be spent last year as a backup at Pierce College in Los Angeles.
"Anthony has great talent," Petrino said. "He throws a nice ball with a great release. We are very excited to have him join the team in January and compete for the quarterback job."
More on Neyer below.
Petrino complete staff, talks recruiting
Idaho football coach Paul Petrino has been on the job for 16 days. In that time, he's assembled his coaching staff and had 13 recruits verbally commit. We've got a transcript of what he said in an afternoon teleconference below.
Reports: UI hires Cinkovich as offensive coordinator
Kris Cinkovich, formerly the wide receivers coach at Arkansas and UNLV, has been hired as Idaho's offensive coordinator and wide receivers coach, according to multiple reports. Cinkovich coached last season at Arkansas with Paul Petrino, the Vandals' new coach, and played at Carroll College with Bobby Petrino, Paul's brother. His teams at Carroll were coached by Bob Petrino Sr. He also spent two years as a player at Spokane Falls Community College (1979-1980).
Cinkovich was named one of the nation's top 50 recruiters by 247Sports.com in February. He spent three seasons with the Razorbacks after six seasons at UNLV. This is his first coordinator job. He led Las Vegas High to a state title in 2003.
This past season Cinkovich made $214,800 at Arkansas. In 2011, Idaho paid offensive coordinator Steve Axman $130,000. The salary for Jason Gesser, who replaced Axman for one season, was never disclosed.
Cinkovich's reported hiring means the Vandals have let go receivers coach Mike Levenseller, who spent one season in Moscow after being dismissed after a long coaching career at Washington State.
Idaho announces hiring of Lee, Anderson
Ronnie Lee, a former Washington State defensive back and Idaho assistant, is the Vandals' new defensive coordinator and secondary coach. In a release from UI, coach Paul Petrino said Lee was at the top of his list for the job. "For me, I hit the jackpot and got the guy I wanted," Petrino said.
More on the Lee hiring can be found here. UI also announced the hiring of linebackers coach Mike Anderson, a former Vandals linebacker and graduate assistant
For a roundup of unofficial UI staff additions, see here.
Petrino's staff at Idaho starting to form
UPDATED: 5:15 p.m.
Paul Petrino's a busy man. The new Idaho football coach has completed at least part of his staff, with names of new assistants trickling in. We've got the latest updates below. Read on.
A coach's son takes over at Idaho
Paul Petrino is from a coaching family. He remembers breaking down game film with his father as a boy. And he and his brother, Bobby, would watch tape for eight hours at a time in the offseason while together at Arkansas. Yes, Petrino is a coach's son, and now he has another title he's always wanted: head coach.
Petrino was introduced Monday as the new face of the Idaho football program. He had lots to say, and we've got lots of details to pass along below. You can also find an early version of our story for the paper.
Petrino accepts offer to become UI coach
Arkansas offensive coordinator Paul Petrino has accepted an offer to become the next Idaho football coach, the Spokesman-Review has confirmed.
UI has scheduled a news conference for tomorrow at 1:30 p.m. at the Litehouse Center in the Kibbie Dome.
CoachingSearch.com was the first to report the hire.
Petrino replaces Robb Akey, who was fired on Oct. 21 after five-plus seasons. The Vandals went 1-11 this year and have had one winning season since 2000.
In addition to running the offense and coaching quarterbacks at Arkansas, Petrino has previously coached at Illinois, Louisville and with the Atlanta Falcons, among other stops. The Butte, Mont., native was an offensive and special teams assistant at Idaho from 1992-1994. He's the brother of former Arkansas and Falcons coach Bobby Petrino.
Idaho narrowed down a large list of candidates to five finalists last week. Petrino interviewed for the job on Thursday, according to a source. The other finalists were Wyoming defensive coordinator and former UI coach Chris Tormey, Central Washington coach Blaine Bennett, San Jose State offensive coordinator Brian Lindgren and UI interim coach Jason Gesser.
The Vandals will compete as a Football Bowl Subdivision independent next year after the WAC dissolved as a football league. Petrino becomes the sixth UI head coach since the school became an FBS (then NCAA Division 1-A) program in 1996.

Saudis to hold workshop to fight swine flu
The nation's health minister asked the ministry to set up workshops to better prepare officials to curb the spread of swine flu in the Kingdom.
June 17, 2009 2:29 by Dana El Baltaji
Health Minister Abdullah Al Rabeeah yesterday asked his ministry to hold a special workshop for health officials to better combat the spread of swine flu in the Kingdom as three more cases were reported. The number of people affected with the H1N1 virus in the Gulf, meanwhile, also rose to 33 with Qatar reporting its first cases.
The workshop in the Kingdom next week will have foreign experts among its participants. "This is going to be an extraordinary meeting at which experts from the World Health Organization, the Atlanta-based Center for Disease Control and the Eastern Mediterranean Office in Alexandria will give their views and tell local officials how to react to the flu virus," Health Ministry spokesman Khalid Al Mirghalani said.
After the workshop, the experts would be taken to the Haj Terminal in Jeddah and other places where large numbers of people gather in order for them to give suggestions about dealing with the virus. Al Mirghalani said that the health minister was open to any constructive suggestion to combat the disease. The workshop is tentatively fixed for June 26.
The Health Ministry yesterday announced the discovery of three more cases of swine flu — two in Madinah and one in Riyadh — bringing the total number of cases in the Kingdom to 17.
The two people identified with the virus yesterday at the King Fahd Hospital in Madinah were a Saudi student coming from Australia and a woman patient. The third patient is a Malaysian nurse. An official said that the Saudi student came by Emirates airlines Flight 817 from Dubai to King Khaled International Airport in Riyadh on Friday and subsequently traveled the following day by Saudi Arabian Airlines Flight 1465 to Madinah.
The official said that passengers who had traveled on those flights should be careful and should report any symptoms to the ministry.

Ayurvedic recipe tips to strike a balance
An imbalance in elemental energies can lead to illnesses, especially during the summer. Ayurveda has the answers
- Image Credit: Javed Nawab/Gulf News
The ancient science of Ayurveda divides the human body into three categories — Vata, Pitta and Kapha — and each is governed by an element of nature or a combination of them, giving us an individual body metabolism.
"According to Ayurveda, our bodies have a dosha based on its constitution and our lifestyle and other factors affect it," says Dr Chandy George, Ayurvedic lifestyle consultant at Balance Wellness Club in Dubai. "Nature and the human body are governed by the five elements — earth, water, air, space and fire. The combinations of these elemental energies define the three major body types — Vata (space and air), Pitta (fire) and Kapha (earth and water). These categories are called the tri doshas, which are often imbalanced on account of external factors, both physical and mental, leading to illness. However, these can be rectified through awareness about what one's dosha is and with lifestyle changes".
Seasonal changes are one of the major causes of this imbalance, says Dr Shyllaja Ravikumar Pillai, manager at Soft Touch Spa in Kempinski Mall of the Emirates.
"Vata and Pitta doshas are increased due to dehydration. As the moisture in the body lessens, the natural oils are also absorbed from the body. So, one needs follow a diet to balance the three doshas."
"Signs of heat exposure are evident in everyone, but more so in those whose dominant dosha is Pitta," George adds. "Hence we are advised to consume foods and fluids which have a cooling effect on the body.
"It is essential to rehydrate by consuming up to three litres of water daily. Intake of spicy, deep fried, salty foods and fruits such as strawberry (because of its high acid content and viscous nature) should be minimised, if not totally avoided. Spices such as cardamom and coriander, and herbs such as mint and fennel can be included more in daily meals. Medium sweet and bitter foods are ideal for this season. Coffee and tea should be reduced to a minimum as they aggravate the Pitta dosha. Buttermilk, milk with sugar or sweet lassi (diluted yoghurt), fresh fruit juices — preferably watermelon, cucumber, coconut water, mint, organic rose water and cumin water — are good as they help balance the this dosha."
Replenish and restore
To replenish your body according to your body type, Pillai advises everyone to follow a particular diet to keep their doshas in harmony. "Vata-dosha predominant people should stick strictly to the vata-pacifying diet. This should include seasonal vegetables such as tomato, onion, carrot, asparagus, leafy greens, beets, sweet potatoes and summer squash such as zucchini, lauki (bottle gourd), cucumber, peas and coconut. These are easily digestible when cooked with Vata-pacifying spices such as turmeric, cumin, coriander, dried ginger, black pepper and saffron.
"Pitta-predominant people should have organic milk, mint and coriander herbal teas and sweet seasonal fruits such as pears, apricots, grapes, plums, watermelon and sweet berries are good. Cold soups, such as gazpacho, and salads are also good. But avoid salads for supper when it's best to have lightly cooked foods, such as basmati rice with sautéed sprouted mung beans and green, leafy vegetables. Avoid dark meats. Replace with white meat once a week.
"For Kapha-predominant people, seasonal fruits such as melons, pomegranates, grapes and pineapples should be freshly blended and had at room temperature. Lemon juice, lassi with mint or cilantro and sugarcane juice are also excellent choices. Ripe summer fruits such as pears, plums, nectarines and peaches are rich in moisture."
George goes on to say that though it's essential for all to stay hydrated, it's doubly important for women.
"It is essential for anyone to rehydrate themselves during the harsh summer months. Women, however, are usually more susceptible to heat-related imbalances because they tend to have a more fragile constitution. While one is advised to drink up to three litres of water every day, pregnant women must refrain from consuming more than one glass at a time. It's also important for women to protect their skin from exposure to heat, especially during the peak hours (noon-2.30pm)."
Foods to avoid
Dr Shyllaja Pillai advises everyone should at least reduce intake of these:
- Dry fruits
- Fried items
- Garlic
- Honey and alcoholic beverages
- Pungent, acid and salt tastes
- Ice-cold drinks or food, especially during meals. These will douse your digestive fire and disrupt digestion.
- Carbonated drinks, because they slow down the digestion process.
Dr Shyllaja Pillai tells you how to know your predominant dosha:
Physical features
Thin body frame, flat chest with veins and prominent joints visible, dry skin, less hair, quick talking, don't perspire much, quick and unsteady movements, less or interrupted sleep, like to stay warm.
Mental traits

Physical features
Well-developed body with big frame, tendency to gain weight easily and remain heavy.

The skin is soft, lustrous and oily. It is also cold and pale. The hair is thick, dark, soft and wavy. The eyes are dense and black or blue: the white of the eye is generally very white, large and attractive. Kapha people have regular appetites but slow digestion. Their perspiration is moderate.

- 1 pinch asafoetida
- 1 tsp cumin seeds
- 2 tsp ghee
- Rock salt, to taste
- Curry leaves, as desired
Separate the leaves. Wash and chop them.
Cook mung dal in water with salt.
When mung dal is fully cooked, add the chopped leaves and cook for few more minutes until the leaves are tender. Season it with asafoetida, mustard, cumin seeds and curry leaves fried in ghee.
It balances all the three doshas and relieves the following:
- Loss of appetite
- Internal body heat
- Eye diseases
- Constipation
- 2 tbs low-fat yoghurt
- 2 cups water
- 1 tsp salt ( preferably black salt)
- 1 tsp cumin powder
- 1 tsp mint leaves, chopped
- 1 tsp coriander leaves, chopped
Blend all ingredients together, check the seasoning and serve cold. Have buttermilk after your main meal or between two main meals. In case you use full-cream yoghurt, add ice cubes before blending the drink. The fat in the yoghurt will solidify and rise to the surface. Skim it off the surface and enjoy the fat-free drink.

Search is on for Mini Mart assailants
SoVaNow.com / April 30, 2014Mecklenburg County Sheriff's Deputies are investigating an armed robbery that took place at Pearce's Mini Mart in La Crosse Sunday night.
The assailants were four men who stormed the store, demanding money. Deputies say two or three of them had guns. One climbed over the counter and struck a store clerk. The store's owner, Billy Pearce, was robbed at gunpoint.
The store was the scene of the murder of Pearce's father, Bunny, then the owner of the mini-mart, in June 1998.
Capt. Andy Ezell said deputies received a call from the store's alarm company around 9:10 p.m. Arriving at the scene, they found the store owner, Mr. Pearce, uninjured after the brazen assault, despite having a gun pointed at him.
No one was seriously physically injured in the incident.
Four males entered the store brandishing guns and demanding money, police say. The suspects left in what was described to law enforcement as a silver colored 2002 Saab 9-5 station wagon, with unknown tag information.
Ezell said deputies believe at least two of the suspects were in the store a few hours before the robbery occurred, and Sheriff Bobby Hawkins added that they have reports from witnesses who saw that same car in the area earlier in the day.
While the investigation is its early stages, Hawkins believes the four may have specifically targeted the mini mart.
Right now, there is nothing to suggest the robbery suspects were local: "That is why we are reaching out to the public," Hawkins said, "asking if anyone sees something or can identify any of the suspects that they will come forward.
Anyone with information is encouraged to call the Mecklenburg County Sheriff at 434-738-6171 or Crime stoppers at 877.676.8477.
