Welcome. Come on in, take a look around, and get comfortable with a new take on the world.
A world more loyal. A world more rewarding for customers. A world more resilient for brands
and extremely profitable for the underlying businesses those brands represent.
After being in the loyalty business for more than 100 years, we can tell you a buck
on brand loyalty goes 6 to 7X† further than a dollar spent on acquisition.
We're a Maritz company, and we're excited to help you make
the most of your investment in this new age of brand loyalty.
We all know the role of marketing is to find and keep a customer. It's the perpetual 'keep' part
that excites us. And though the topic of brand loyalty can be as complex and unique as any human being is, the philosophy of this business is quite simple. Brands want their customers to come again—to remain loyal and to tell others. Our specialty is customers. Need to see them more frequently? Like them to try something new from you? Buy more? Find others like them?
We do that. In fact, that's all we do.
A dash of human, a pinch of experience, and a whole lotta digital—topped off with your brand!
The secret sauce of brand loyalty is more akin to a recipe than a formula. There's some empirical parts for sure, but there's an art to making it great. It's not just deploying e-commerce recovery-module email blasts, providing points, plastic cards, or play money—or even carpet-bombing coupon codes. With 60% of marketers actively seeking new ways to engage and retain their customers*, Brand Loyalty has never been more tasty.
Our recipe for brand loyalty is a combination of behavioral science and neuroscience… (literally watching the brain light up as people make decisions), overlapped by strategic design-thinking frameworks, iron-clad-financial-pro-formas (go on, ask another marketing agency for one of those), and a deep digital and tech platform expertise. We scoop 'loyalty' out of the realm of the subjective, fuzzy, and notional—and deliver it to the real, hard-working, retail-relevant realm of business results.
But brand loyalty is a dish best served sharable, where brands earn the loyalty of their customers at every interaction—not just the other way around—and treat those people as more than just clicks, trips and baskets. Equally, brands deserve customers who are more than just Facebook friends, Twitter terrorists, and less fickle with their shopping choices—choosing to try once, buy repeatedly, and suggest others do the same. We find the win-win for everyone in this equation, bonding the uniquely human experiences customers seek with brands, with the digital ones that maintain a relationship with customers away from store. We bake relationships that are mutually beneficial, more profitable, differentiated from competitors, and completely sustainable.
Caution: don't water it down.

"Our long-standing partnership...has delivered great results for the SCENE program. We are continually impressed by their pro-activeness in delivering strategic ideas that evolve and better our business."
"We chose [this team] because they are a founder of the
Loyalty Marketing Industry, and also get the future of it."
"We now have more engaged customers, with customized communications and measurable growth to our business. And we can see at a store level."
"...Every consultancy puts their very best foot forward on the "first dates" to blow the socks off prospective clients…then, when the rubber hits the road, the delivery of thought leadership can start to wane. I'm so proud to share that that has never, ever been the experience...This group is smart, thoughtful, deliberate and thorough. And, their energy/enthusiasm for the project is infectious – many of us here comment on how pumped we feel after a presentation."
It all begins with a common goal — your brand promise. This promise could be to have the best customer service, or to offer customers the best value for their dollar. The important thing is to remember that no one organization can do everything well. You have to pick and choose. Frances Frei put it best when she said that to be the best in class at something, in order to be great — you have to be bad. And that the well-intentioned desire to be great at everything is exactly what leads to "exhausted mediocrity." To differentiate yourself, your brand promise must be enterprise-wide, sustainable and measurable. Once the promise is identified, it needs to permeate from the top down and employee engagement is how you do that.
This is important because a recent Gallup report found "an alarming 70% of American employees aren't working to their full potential." Of those 70%, 52% are not engaged and another 18% are actively not engaged, which can lead to their lack of productivity, more likelihood that they will drive customers away and disloyalty to their employers.
The linkage between the salesperson on the frontline and the CEO who is making a promise to the marketplace must be aligned in order to nurture loyal customers. An example of this done well was Commerce Bank who decided to differentiate itself by focusing on service. They did this by focusing all their hiring, training and engagement strategies around service that stretched across the entire corporation. This lead to huge growth for this bank and ended up outpacing larger traditional banks . . . why? Because the customers who were attracted to Commerce Bank's brand promise didn't mind paying a little more to get what they most valued…service. Competitors that tried to copy this experience ultimately failed, because it didn't fit their budget or their brand promise.
Though the VP of Marketing is making decisions on what he or she is going to say in the marketplace about a company's brand, he/she must consider how the frontline will be able to deliver. If there is a communication breakdown along the way where the brand promise cannot be realized by your frontline staff, you are going to create a scenario that only delivers conflict, displeased consumers and a frustrated frontline. If a brand is making promises that the frontline can't deliver, then both are set to fail. This is why organization-wide alignment is so important.
Employee engagement is much more than simply offering performance-driven incentives, which we find is actually a weak approach compared to true engagement strategies that include empowerment, encouragement, community and contribution. Coaching is an effective method of employee engagement that benefits all staff, especially the frontline. This is because client-facing staff are often directly associated with a bad or good experience surrounding a consumer's relationship with the brand. The ability to empower and educate your frontline with coaching will not only increase your employees' confidence, but also positively impact the caliber of service they offer your customers. Coaching is an investment of time, resources and attention — but it is worth the effort to show your frontline staff that they are invaluable as client-facing ambassadors, and also to prepare and empower them for any challenge they may be faced with.
Reported benefits of coaching for employee engagement:
1. Improved relationships with direct reports (77%).
2. Improved relationships with peers (63%).
3. Better teamwork (67%).
4. Increased job satisfaction (61%).
Organizational benefits include better:
1. Productivity (53%).
2. Quality (48%).
3. Organizational strength (48%).
4. Customer service (39%).
5. Retention (32%).
Giving your employees an active role in the success of the brand and making sure this aligns with your brand promise is key to a successful outcome. The "do this, get that" doesn't work for consumers and it doesn't work for employees. Yes, people want to be rewarded for their efforts, but intrinsically there isn't any emotional attachment on a performance-based metric, compared to the contribution or the sense of building something that great employees get in great organizations.
1. Define your brand promise in as simple terms as possible. You can't be all things to all people and if you try to be, you will fail — it's that simple. Pick the most important thing to your brand that aligns with your values and culture.
2. Filter every decision and criteria around how you're going to enable your employees and your customers along that continuum of experience. This includes training, incentives, motivation, values, communication — and all these things need to line up like tumblers in a lock.
3. Measure your degrees of separation from your promise and, that way, if you didn't deliver on your promise, you can assess where the challenge is. You'll find out whether it was an issue of alignment, empowerment, engagement or simple miscommunication. Find the root cause of the disconnect — often it's the frontline, because they are in closest proximity to the consumer — and find out how to make the right decision.
The reality is that everyone in your organization has a role to play. Think about it — while your CMO may be 6 or 7 degrees of separation from the person-to-person delivery of the brand promise, every decision he or she makes has a huge influence on how customers actually experience your brand. The connection is employee engagement, ensuring everyone through that continuum — from frontline to C Level leaders — is aligned around a common goal. That goal manifests itself in the way that policies are set and decisions are made, and the way that ideas come together to support that brand promise.
If you can't have your executive team meeting with every customer, make sure your frontline sounds just like them…engaged and aligned.

by Tarissa

That pretty much covers Karana's life, when her tribe sails away, and leaves her in the remains of living by herself, for years to come. There's numerous things she has to teach herself how to do--and many things that she'll discover that she will not do again. She has to learn exactly how to fend for herself--it's a life or death matter. After all, no one may ever come back to find her...
Awesome book, very eccentric--Not your average read!
You'll have to find out how Karana becomes courageous enough to take on her natural state of isolation.

Miami rapper Benisour (Pronounced "ben-i-SWAH") has one of those voices that was just meant to be heard. He may not dazzle you with his wordplay or his wit, but his deep, casual-sounding baritone is extremely easy on the ears – imagine a Game/Jim Jones hybrid on valium. His new single, The Grain, is about falling in love with a stripper. Despite T-Pain's and Mike Jones's best efforts, it is apparently still a faux pas to do so. Guest Akon, who actually ends up with more time on the mic than Benisour, contributes a typical hook, and Konvict Music handles the production, laying down some quietly pulsating strings over laid-back percussion. The song oughtta get its share of late-night spins at your local strip club. While no announcements have been made regarding the release of his debut album, Benisour is rumored to be working on one right now.

In the 1980's I shot this little story about Fred Sherman in Neola, Kansas.
Fred is gone now and Neola is a ghost town.....but this little moment with Fred I've remembered all my life. He played piano for the silent movies....and may have had the only piano in the world inside a grain elevator.
One of my favorite stories shot in 1987.

Hip-Hop pioneer Doug E. Fresh's tax records have reportedly leaked online and show him owing over $2 million to the government.
According to reports, the IRS filed a lien [a right to keep possession of property] against Fresh in mid-October.
The IRS just launched a financial beat-down of The Human Beat Box, hip-hop pioneer Doug E. Fresh, who has a history of tax problems. The old school rapper known for the hit "La Di Da Di" owes more than $2.27 million in delinquent federal taxes, according to a fresh lien. It's the most recent delinquent tax bill filed this year against Fresh, 44, who has run afoul of New York city and state tax agencies and the IRS. The IRS filed a $2,276,848 lien against Fresh (real name Douglas E. Davis) on Oct. 20 with the New York City Register's Office. (Detroit News)
Earlier this fall, the "Human Beat Box" opened his own restaurant in Harlem.
During 2008, he appeared on several talk shows boasting about the new place, but it never managed to open. Finally, after an inexplicable delay of over three years, Doug E.'s debuted a month ago. The blogs were alive with the news, with a couple of doubters on the Harlem boards exclaiming, "well, it's just a fast food spot." Indeed it is, specializing in the combination of waffles and fried chicken made famous by Wells Restaurant, a Harlem Renaissance hot spot that opened in 1938 and closed for the first time in 1984, though it has occasionally been revived since then. It was located one block north of Doug E.'s on Adam Clayton Powell Boulevard, and was open nightly till the wee hours. (Village Voice)
Recently, Fresh made headlines after appearing on the "Soul Train Awards."
When CNN's Wolf Blitzer appeared at the 'Soul Train Awards'(Sun., 9PM ET on BET), he wasn't there as a journalist. "The real reason I came here tonight: because I wanta learn how to do the Dougie," he joked, referring to the dance affiliated with Cali Swag District's 'Teach Me How to Dougie.' Hosts Taraji P. Henson and Terrence Howard might have helped, but instead Doug E. Fresh himself came onstage to demonstrate the latest dance craze. And… um, all we can say is that Blitzer tried really hard. (TV Squad)
Fresh's run in the music industry dates back to the early 1980's.
The first human beatbox in the rap world, and still the best of all time, Doug E. Fresh amazed audiences with his note-perfect imitations of drum machines, effects, and often large samples of hip-hop classics. Fresh was born Doug E. Davis in Barbados, and his first appearance came in 1983 on a single for Spotlight called "Pass the Budda," with Spoonie Gee and DJ Spivey. His introduction to most hip-hop fans, though, came one year later with his astonishing performance in Beat Street behind the Treacherous Three. (All Music)

The Clarkston Golf & Country Club was established as a private club in 1937. The course has been through many changes through the years, but has been at the present site and in the current configuration since 1974.
Our easy-to-walk championship course is located in Clarkston, Washington, adjacent to the Snake River and is near Lewiston, Idaho. We are able to offer year-round golf partly due to Clarkston's low elevation of 738 feet.
Our numerous other amenities besides the course offered are a fine-dining restaurant, our bar and lounge, and clay tennis court. Guests of members and members of other private clubs are always welcome here at Clarkston Golf and Country Club.

Oron Catts is an artist, researcher and curator whose pioneering work with the Tissue Culture and Art Project which he established in 1996 is considered a leading biological art project. In 2000 he founded SymbioticA, an artistic research centre housed within the School of Anatomy, Physiology and Human Biology, The University of Western Australia. Under Oron's leadership SymbioticA has gone on to win the Prix Ars Electronica Golden Nica in Hybrid Art (2007) and became a Centre for Excellence in 2008. Catts interest is life, more specifically the shifting relations and perceptions of life in the light of new knowledge and its application. Often working in collaboration with other artists (mainly Ionat Zurr) and scientists, Catts have developed a body of work that speak volumes about the need to for new cultural articulation of evolving concepts of life. Oron was a Research Fellow in Harvard Medical School and a visiting Scholar at the Department of Art and Art History, Stanford University. He is currently the Director of SymbioticA, a Visiting Professor of Design Interaction, Royal College of Arts, London, and a Visiting Researcher/consultant at Aalto University's Future Art Base, Helsinki.

Photographing Beautiful Grand Canyon Pictures Without a Lot of PeopleMany photographs benefit from a human presence. But in tourist areas and other popular places - from Grand Cayman Island to the Grand Canyon - too many people can create a "busy" picture with too many things vying for the viewer's attention.
Sure, you can zap out unwanted tourists from your scene in Photoshop. Still, there's nothing like saving time in the digital darkroom by doing it right in the first place ... during the actual act of shooting! Here are some avoid-the-crowds tips and tricks:
Arrive early: For outdoor scenes, dawn offers fantastic light and few people. Otherwise, beat the rush by arriving as soon as the doors open at museums, historic sites, festivals, special events, etc.
Practice Patience When Photographing Beautiful Grand Canyon PicturesWhether you're photographing beautiful Grand Canyon pictures or the Metropolitan Museum of Art, you may want to wait for those "intruders" to leave the scene. Of course, this doesn't always work ... for instance, when you become the photographic "victim" of a never-ending stream of humanity.
Use a close-up foreground: With your wide-angle lens, try framing your distant scene with a strong foreground object. This involves moving in reeeally tight on a subject. How close? Say, within an arm's length of the nearest point. This technique helps you to spotlight a distant subject and produce a nice three-dimensional-like effect, while also blocking out background bystanders.
Blur out passersby! Turn them into ghostly figures ... or perhaps make them "disappear" entirely! Do it with a verrry slow shutter speed - via any, or all, of the following: low light, low ISO, subjects moving (not standing), a tripod (or other sturdy support), and small aperture (high f/stop number).
Photo Examples
Abandoned Gas Station: I used a battered-but-colorful sign as a close-up foreground subject ... for two very good reasons: 1) as a creative effect (to combine a nearby detail and a distant scene into a single image with lots of depth); and 2) as a practical matter (to "hide" background visitors at this ghost-town attraction).
Marina Sunrise: Dawn brought dynamic colors and clouds, plus this additional benefit: It was too early for pleasure boats to be out, about, and "ruining" my reflection at this usually hectic coastal harbor.
Skiers in Cascades: In this case, I wanted a person or two in my composition - for visual interest and for its storytelling aspect. But, with the cold and overcast conditions, I had to wait well over an hour before skiers finally arrived in my scene ... now that is an example of practicing patience!

When you vote, it means that men don't have all the power and control. It is about believing in yourself. It is about taking responsibility. I have concern when responsibility is not taken over actions. I also have concerns when the labeling of the term "lazy" is used but is not acted upon. Making excuses has become a cultural habit, from work, to school, to everyday life. We were brought up this way as children. When we were asked why we did something wrong, we were encouraged to make an excuse. I say that we need to stop this. Responsibility means that you have power. It means that you are worthy, it means that you are important, it means that you are trusted, and it means that you belong. This should be thought of as one of the greatest honors a human being can hold. We seem to fear responsibility because of the potential of being known as a failure. But so what if you regret electing someone? Human's make mistakes. We learn and we grow. Our species is not stagnated, we are a moving and ever flowing machine. A few wrong votes does not stop us there. What matters is that you did something. It does not matter what you did. You have the power to do something women in the 1920's long-fought for. So don't shame away from responsibility. Instead, use it to change yourself. Use it to change the world.

IT was a wonderful experience staying here. It was looking a bit sad in the start but the place gives you a lot of positives vibes. the staff is amazing.. very friendly and out there to help you. the place is very close to Galle and you can commute through the bus and it is very cheap! Worth the stay.. good place to relax and enjoy a quiet vacation..
When i was booking this hotel online i didn't know it was a 200 year old former Dutch governor's house! it was definitely a nice surprise as we went into the lobby and admire the house, for a moment i thought we came to the wrong hotel! For the price we pay ( we were travelling in a group and was on a budget), the rooms was clean and spacious, and the pool at the new wing was certainly a nice place to relax. The breakfast buffet spread was scrumptious too. We had a great stay and definitely recommend this place.
It is a family owned hotel, the staffs are really friendly, and they have a spa too! If you're lucky you might even spot some fireflies near the bushes.
First step you walk in the hotel, you will surrounded by the scent of historic and sweet floral fragrance. Only one word appear in my mind "BEAUTIFUL". The entire hotel is beautiful and warm. All the staffs in the hotel are very generous and helpful. The room were decorated with honeymoon style atmosphere which it very suitable for the newlyweds or couples to having their honeymoon holiday in this hotel. The room is clean and comfortable. There are 2 swimming pool, one is children pools(near the hotel lobby) and other one is adult swimming pool with mother nature view which you can enjoy your leisure time by sitting beside the pools. Besides, you also can enjoy the Sri Lanka local food through the breakfast that provided by the hotel. The hotel fried rice is the best fried rice that i had ate along my travel in Sri Lanka. I love the place very much.
We took our two young kids to Sri Lanka for two weeks, and had a wonderful time at Nooit Gedacht, We stayed in a huge "family room" in the historic building, with basically two huge adjoining rooms, our own patio and table for eating. And, we were directly next to the small pool, which made my kids happy.
We were a short walk to the beach, and I particularly enjoyed the historic charm and peaceful ambiance. There were beautiful small fountains and ponds throughout the property, and each morning fresh brightly colored flower petals were placed in them. My daughters loved putting the petals in the ponds and staff always gave them handfuls to put in when they ran over to help.
It was a easy place to meet other families, was in a good location. My kids loved loved the pools, and we were a short walk to the beach. (We had decided to forgo beachfront for the pools to keep the kids happy). One other tip: I did a fabulous fabulous bike ride with Chameera Cycling in Unawatuna too, which was a great way to see the side roads and real village life. Also, we loved staying at the beach by day but tuk-tuking to Galle in the evening for sunset and dinner! The Galle fish market and fruit market a few miles up the road were a fun adventure!
If you want to stay in a hotel where the service is top and the surroundings are like a small paradise, you should visit this hotel. We have never seen so many exotic birds in one place. You also had monkeys and a beautiful lotus pond. We were treated very well and will certainly come back to this place another time.
Was pleasantly surprised to see the quality of service and rooms given the price. Very reasonable for clean, tidy rooms along with a fab pool to boot! If you don't mind a quick 10min walk to the beach this is a good spot and worth every penny. Take mosquito repellent tho!
Stayed here with my partner just for one night but enjoyed it very much. Room was old but clean enough and the fresh flowers on the bed were a nice touch and the welcome drink was delicious fresh juice. Didn't eat in the restaurant as we wandered down into Unawatuna instead which took 5 minutes so can't comment on the food. Hotel is on main road but set back through the main old colonial building so rooms are v quiet. Beach is 5 min walk or 100 rupees in a tuk tuk and is divine! Wish we'd stayed longer!
Arriving at Nooit Gedacht Hotel was a wonderful surprise. I knew that it was an old colonial building with a pretty garden attached, but I wasn't expecting such an amazing place. The grounds were beautifully planted with tropical flowers and huge bamboos; it felt like we had stepped into a private paradise.
We were upgraded to a superior room, which was extremely airy, well-decorated and spacious, with a large balcony overlooking the pool and a small lake full of waterlilies. We slept very well, thanks to the quiet surroundings and a wide, comfortable bed. The buffet breakfast the next morning was extremely plentiful and varied, including delicious omelettes and coconut stuffed pancakes.
Staying outside Galle turned out to be a very good decision as it was only a 20 minute journey into the centre, by bus or taxi, and the main beach was just a 5-10 minute walk away. We also visited a much smaller beach, called jungle beach, which was a 15 minute rickshaw journey over the hill, next to the Peace Temple. The sea was much calmer than on the main beach, so it was good for swimming and snorkelling, though rather crowded.
The staff at Nooit Gedacht were very welcoming and couldn't have been more helpful. On our last day, as well as looking after our bags while we had a final dip in the ocean, they allowed us to use an empty bedroom to shower and change before we caught our bus. Overall, it was a very special place and we found it hard to tear ourselves away. Fingers crossed, we'll be able to go back one day.
We spend there 2 nights. The hotel was colonial style, peaceful, whit nice gardens and pool.
The food was very good.and the staff very, very helpfull and kind. Good situation: Unawatuna Beach" 2 minuts with tuk-tuk- and 15 minuts walking and Galle 5-10 minuts tuk-tuk. Highly recommended. Very good massages.
We stayed here for 9 nights with two kids aged 3 & 6 years and enjoyed it very much.
The hotel has a nice and laid back vibe to it and you always feel welcome. The hotel is not new and modern, but it has that colonial style that makes it charming (if you like that kind of hotel). The rooms wish fairly equipped and pleasant and the staff was very kind.
The jungle in the backyard, is perfect for adventures with the kids.

On the Bike route from Rehoboth to Lewes
What makes this house unique
Family setting - Fully Furnished. We built this house as a year round getaway and are happy to offer it to you for a wonderful beach experience.
Guestbook comments from the owner
Just wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed staying at your home. It was perfect for our needs. The dogs and four grandchildren enjoyed the backyard especially. We loved taking our bikes to the beach, too. We were treated to a family of deer early Sunday morning. We loved the area so much, that Marty and I are going to purchase a home in Lewes!
As my three-year old granddaughter said of the kids' room (It's awesome, Nana!). They loved sleeping and playing in that room! I do hope I have returned the animal figurines to their proper location. My granddaughter was particularly enamoured of the animals. I found the doorstop schnauzer and other animals had "gathered" in front of the fireplace to have tea with the grandchildren.
Again, perfect for our needs. Thanks so much! Best to you!
PS Thanks for the "Low-country Boil" recipe! Scrumptious!

"But I have promises to keep, and miles to go before I sleep, and miles to go before I sleep." Robert Frost
A relative of mine, Stewart, (not his real name) was driving home from LA, and fell asleep at the wheel. Stewart was 18 years old at the time, and on winter break from college. He drove to LA in the morning, and then, after spending the day there, drove home that night. Although he knew he was drowsy, he made the decision to drive home. The last thing he remembered was listening to a 49er Monday night football game before he dozed off without warning. His new 1996 Toyota Corolla was totaled when the car crashed into a barrier on the side of the highway as he was going at least 65 mph. The front of the car ended up at the windshield.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration estimates that drowsy driving results in 1550 deaths, 71,000 injuries, and 100,000 accidents each year. Younger drivers, age 16-24, are almost twice as likely to be involved in a drowsy driving crash compared to drivers age 40-59. Stewart was not unusual in that 55% of drivers who report falling asleep did so while driving on a high speed divided highway.
Often we take our need for sleep for granted, but getting sufficient sleep is as vital to our health as getting enough exercise and eating properly. In more immediate terms, lack of sleep can impair judgment, affect mood, decrease the ability to retain information, and increase the risk of accidents. In the long run, lack of sleep can lead to increased risk for obesity, diabetes, and heart problems. For example, if a person with high blood pressure has a single night of poor sleep, this can lead to high blood pressure throughout the following day- which, if it persists on a daily basis, can adversely affect the heart. Likewise, a single night of poor sleep can make a person irritable the next day, and chronic lack of sleep has been correlated with depression and anxiety.
According to the National Sleep Foundation, here are some healthy sleep tips which should become habits:
- Stick to the same bedtime and wake up time even on weekends.
- Practice a relaxing bedtime ritual.
- Avoid naps, especially in the afternoon.
- Exercise daily, but not at the expense of your sleep!
- Create a comfortable sleep environment. Room temperature should be between 60-67 degrees, free from noise, and free from any light.
- Sleep on a comfortable mattress and use comfortable pillows.
- Manage your circadian rhythms by avoiding bright light in the evening and seeking sunlight in the morning.
- Avoid alcohol, tobacco, and heavy meals in the evening. Also, try to avoid caffeine late in the day. (In my patients whom I treat for chronic insomnia, I recommend eliminating caffeine entirely.)
- Spend the last hour before bedtime doing a calming activity such as reading. If you are having trouble sleeping, avoid electronics such as laptops before bedtime or during the middle of the night.
- If you can't sleep, go into another room and do something relaxing until you feel tired. The common adage is to use your bed only for sleep or sex.
Stewart survived the car crash and ended up only with a bloody nose when the air bag deployed and punched him in his face. He had a friend in the front passenger seat who survived despite not wearing a seat belt because his airbag kept him from flying through the windshield. Stewart was ticketed by Highway Patrol for trying to pass someone on the right side of the highway where there was no actual lane. The officer had not realized that Stewart had simply fallen asleep. What did Stewart learn from this experience? "Rest before driving, switch off drivers, and take your time."
Don't let poor sleep affect your health or lead to serious injury. Getting enough sleep should be a priority in your life, not an afterthought as you try to accomplish everything else you want to do. Unlike Robert Frost, reject the attitude of "miles to go" before you sleep.
For more information about sleep and health, go to the National Sleep Foundation.

Apple (AAPL +2%) roundup: 1) Ahead of tomorrow's iPad Mini event, 9to5 Mac reports the cheapest model will likely go for $329, Higher-capacity and 3G/4G-capable models are said to range from $429-$659. 2) In addition to the Mini, Apple will reportedly unveil a slight update for the regular iPad. 3) A Japanese court rules Apple didn't infringe two Samsung patents. It had already cleared Apple of infringing two other Samsung patents, and also cleared Samsung of infringing an Apple patent.

I am inclined to agree with chopchop0. Bad move. Why not just purchase an iPad then? As I stated last week, AAPL is very methodical in their strategy and get some of this market, pricing needs to be more attractive. If they don't start at that 200-250 sweet spot, I think something is up. But, we can armchair-QB all we want. AAPL has a plan and I'm intrigued. L-O-N-G AAPL.
Chopchop, do you do anything other than trash Apple. this is at least the 19th comment you have on it. Did you see this announcement today, by the way:
By Sam Oliver
I don't think apple has to compete on price. There are many people who are interested in a smaller size tablet and believe they will pay a premium to have a superior product. The Kindle, Nexus, the Galaxy, etc. are not in the same league as apple's products. Have you ever used the new kindle HD- I spent a week with it and it is nowhere on the level of an ipad. It is a royal hunk of junk. While far better than the Kindle, the Nexus is still nowhere near the level of apple in terms of build quality, user experience, fluidity, smoothness and stability.
I am interested in buying a smaller tablet for a specific use and after trying the Nexus, the Kindle and the Galaxy, the only product I would buy is the smaller ipad regardless of price.
The only tablet that has the possibility to compete with the full size iPad could be the Surface. It has the quality, beauty, portability of the ipad mated to the power and ports of a computer. The Surface Pro will be able to run windows programs which will be a boon to enterprise. I am certainly willing to ditch the ipad in lieu of a tablet that can replace it as well as my laptop.
Perhaps. Maybe they will continue to own the small tablet market. Or, maybe Apple will chip away at the small tablet market as people adopt tablets with lower cost products and then move up the food chain to the AAPL ecosystem. Don't forget, there may be a killer app associated with the mini. If so, AAPL will crush Samsung, Amazon and Google like a bug and take the small portion of the market they don't already own.
Let the bottom feeders slug it out for the low margin, mediocre, low end Yugo segment. Apple never played in that space and never will. Even BMW and Audi can make high quality smaller versions of their products without harming their quality, design, prestige or margins.
Android has too many devices, causing feature creep. The number of apps that don't work properly outnumber the ones from Apple on my Ipad. http://bit.ly/Ufs6Go
To add to the disadvantage, now you have Intel Androids, that can't properly run all the apps. Or some run slow.
The data on app crashes suggest otherwise
If they don't price the mini at around the $250 price, they are going to shoot themselves in the foot.
Samsung's 7" tablet goes for $250
That would be like bmw pricing down to VW levels.
Senseless run up in AAPL today against what continues to be a very well established downtrend in this stock. Very lucrative thus far on the big down days. Without a single announcement from Apple on which product is to be announced, rumors fly about every single possible product, it's well known Apple can't compete on price, and yet everywhere markets are indicating constricting demand and higher inventories. Timing, timing. People were much more willing to spend 12 months ago, Apple.
The IPad Mini will likely need to priced at $329+ to maintain AAPL's current margins
