Comparative study of promotional strategies adopted by public and private sector banks in India.
In financial services The examples and perspective in this article or section may not represent a worldwide view of the subject.

After the year 1969, the deposits of banks increased more than 80 times as a result of the nationalisation of banks. Paul Cox, (2007) revealed a fact that financial service providers are not perceived highly trusted, so that they might have difficulty in selling risk-based products. The effort to promote banking business is quite distinguished affair. At present, it has become very tricky due to the changing trends of industry, increasing competition and efficiency of regulatory environment, and the financial system. The complexity in the banking services is also an issue of vital importance. This is the time when banks are offering new and innovative services, frequently in the market. The content of promotional tools should help the customer in making most valuable decision. This can be firmly said that well-designed promotional strategies are very important to promote banking services effectively. In marketing any product or service, customer satisfaction has been given the prime importance. The most frustrating frus·trate

Banking should bring out the areas requiring improvement and which further throw light on the measures to improve the quality of services. Promotional packages are very important for financial service industry (Ananda Ananda

It was Ananda who persuaded the Buddha to allow women to become nuns. & Murugaiah, 2003). Thus the orientation of banks should be with a much wider focus in relation to consumer and market needs, and the consequent con·se·quent

b. marketing strategies. The challenges put forth by the changing environment have to be effectively tackled to identify the consumer needs and providing valuable services through product innovation (Nair Raman, 2006). In banking the temporal and spatial dimensions are perceived as more important than traditional dimensions based on outcome and process elements (Kristina Heinonen, 2006). Tokunbo Simbowale (2005) examined the usage of marketing concepts & techniques and recommended that a well-structured marketing department in banks is essential for profitability & effectiveness. A study by Krishna, Suryanarayana & Srikant (2005) recommended that promotional strategies should be designed as per the nature of the services to be promoted. The advertisers should seek a narrative approach to communicate the service experience rather than a logical, argumentative Controversial; subject to argument.
Pleading in which a point relied upon is not set out, but merely implied, is often labeled argumentative. Pleading that contains arguments that should be saved for trial, in addition to allegations establishing a Cause of Action or approach. Narrative approach involves storytelling Storytelling

Location convenience, speed of service, competence and friendliness of bank personnel are also the most important points with maximum value in banking services (Laroche, & Manning, 1986).

Convenience, in terms of location, was also found to be the single most important factor for selecting a branch. It has been generalized gen·er·al·ized

Marketing a service-base business is different from marketing a product-base business. advertisement is more challenging than the advertising of tangible products (Ray and Bose, 2006). Winning new customers costs 10 times more than simply holding onto existing ones. The case should be taken in the marketing of financial services very seriously (Farrokhtakin, Stavash, 2000). While formulating marketing strategy, a bank should focus attention on (i) consumer sovereignty Consumer sovereignty is a term which is used in economics to refer to the rule or sovereignty of purchasers in markets as to production of goods. The term can be used as either a norm (as to what consumers should be permitted) or a description (as to what consumers are permitted). , (ii) attitude, (iii) responsiveness and personal skills of bank staff, (iv) revitalizing re·vi·tal·ize

With the same perspective, the prime objectives of the study are:

(ii) To make a comparative analysis of customers' perception for promotional strategies of private and public sector banks in India
(iii) To find out the key promotional tools for banking services on the basis of customers' responses
Research Methodology
The present study is descriptive in nature, which is based on empirical evidences in the form of primary data. The data collection has been done from 300 customers presently availing banking services. The respondents were approached with systematic random sampling where every 3rd visitor was approached when he/she was coming out of the bank after availing the service. The response rate was found to be 65%. The branches of the banks have been selected out of the representative districts of the states near to Delhi and NCR (NCR Corporation, Dayton, OH, www.ncr.com) A technology company specializing in financial terminal transactions, retail systems and data warehousing. Until the late 1990s, NCR was heavily invested in the hardware side of the industry, known worldwide as a major manufacturer of computers (National Capital Region) on judgment bases for making the samples true representatives. The study includes the customers of 10 leading banks out of which 5 are from public sector (SBI SBI Special Background Investigation

The bank, along with 13 other major commercial banks of India, was nationalisd on 19th July, 1969, by the ) and 5 from private sector (ICICI ICICI Industrial Credit and Investment Corporation of India , HDFC HDFC Housing Development Finance Corporation (India)

A structured questionnaire has been used for collection of data comprising open and close-ended questions. Likert scale Likert scale A subjective scoring system that allows a person being surveyed to quantify likes and preferences on a 5-point scale, with 1 being the least important, relevant, interesting, most ho-hum, or other, and 5 being most excellent, yeehah important, etc has been used as a scaling technique in the questionnaire. Structured interviews have been taken of 2-2 employees of the above stated banks for getting the initial information about the promotional strategies adopted by leading private and public sector banks in India.
Data Analysis and Interpretation
The responses have been captured in a scale of 5 to 1 from strongly agreed to strongly disagree. Similarly in other questions '5' is for very effective and '1' is for not at all Effective. Table 1 show that the promotional strategies of private and public sector banks are almost similar. Both types of banks take the help of almost all type of media to promote their services. The first objective of the study deals with the analysis of the promotional strategies adopted by both. The analysis is done on the basis of review of existing literature and with personal contact and informal interview with the personnel of the private and public sector banks. The major difference in the promotional strategies adopted by banks is in the two techniques of the promotion and they are "Personal Selling" and "Direct Marketing". The difference is that public sector banks do not adopt the strategies of promotion as personal selling and direct marketing; on the other hand the same are adopted by private sector banks. The reasons for this are high reliability and less profit orientation of public sector banks. Public sector banks do not go for innovative strategies of promotion, however they go for interactive marketing through internet but that is not promoted so much like private sector banks. This has been demonstrated in Table 2 that the respondents in the present study are mixed and are seem representative, they include--farmers (19%), shopkeepers, students (31%), highly (23%) as well as low educated (25%) persons. Table 3 states that the maximum respondents (48.33%) were availing the services of Saving Accounts, which is followed by current account service holders (28.33), only few are availing the service of fixed deposits (11%) and Loans (7%). The loan takers also include the students in the form of education loans.
Most of the respondents answered that they were influenced by Friends and Relatives (42%) for choosing the services from a particular bank. This is the power of "word of mouth". This shows that the impact of opinion leadership and reference group is very much in banking services however advertising (21%) also affects the decision of selecting a particular bank (Table 4). As per the responses given in Table 5, the difference between public and private sector banks is known to the maximum number of people (85%). Table 6 gives a clear idea about the question related to the perception of customers about private and public sector banks the results are not so surprising. People think that the advertisements and promotional efforts of private sector banks are more effective than public sector banks with a weighted mean score 3.51 for 5. The respondents strongly agreed that Private Sector Banks do more advertisement than Public Sector Banks (3.81). Further, one more aspect, that is very important in the case of services and especially in financial services i.e. truthfulness, and completeness in advertising. The respondents look agree with the statement that the information provided by Public Sector Banks is more reliable than private sector banks because that is truer and complete (3.62).
This has been narrated in Table 7 that private sector banks are slightly better in catching the awareness of people than Public Sector Banks in mass media advertising. 69% respondents accepted that they have exposure of advertising on television and 61% of advertising in newspapers in case of private sector banks. However in the case of public sector banks it is 66% and 52% respectively. Table 8 gives descriptive idea about the exposure of various promotions. In outdoor advertising and online marketing, private sectors banks are again more successful to spread awareness than public sector banks, but the total awareness level has stayed low. In public sector banks 21% of the respondents were accepted that they have an exposure of outdoor advertising while the respondents for it in case of private sector banks were 28%. As online marketing is not so much adopted by public sector banks only 7% customers have the exposure of the same, while for private sectors banks the exposure of respondents is 17%. Telecalling and personal selling did not show high exposure. Almost 26% people are exposed to telecalling. Another important aspect has been discussed in Table 9. When customers were asked about the most effective tool for promotion of banking services, very meaningful results have came. The most effective tools in respondents' opinion is advertising on television with weighted mean value 3.84 and advertising in newspapers was at second place (3.59). This is followed by personal selling (3.43) and advertising in journals and magazines (3.26). Advertising on Television has been given the first rank and Publicity (2.25) is given the last. However there is no so significant variability in the factors if we move from one. The variability as per standard deviation is 0.5274.
Promotion has different aspects for different industries, products and services. Its final goal is to communicate positive word of mouth among existing and potential customers about the corporate, product and service. In banking the customers must be ensured that services provided by a particular bank have been designed to give them maximum value of their money. In brief, it can be said that in India wherever the dilemma of private and public sector comes always two things are considered. Public sector is more reliable but not so good in the quality and innovativeness. Private sector is not considered so reliable, there may be hidden charges in the services and false and misleading information in the advertising but they are better in the service quality. Private sector banks must be more true and reliable first. They have to win the hearts of the customers, after that they will be able to win minds as well. In traditional tools of promotion both sectors' banks are almost same. Private Sector banks are adopting more push strategies to attract and catch the customers. This creates the difference between promotional strategies adopted by Public and Private Sector Banks.
Scope for Future Research
The study is related to the districts of Haryana Haryana, a state of India, has twenty administrative districts.
A district of Haryana state is an administrative geographical unit, headed by a Deputy Commissioner or District Magistrate, an officer belonging to the Indian Administrative Service. , which are near to Delhi and NCR. The future researches can be conducted by taking other areas as population. The same can be tested in National Capital Reason. A comparative analysis of Semi-Urban areas and NCR can be done of promotional strategies. The future researches may include public, private, foreign banks exclusively on the same topic. As information technology is now entering into villages and semi urban areas also, the scholars may concentrate on carrying out research on direct marketing and Internet marketing See Internet advertising. tools as well as Internet advertising Delivering ads to Internet users via Web sites, e-mail, ad-supported software and Internet-enabled cellphones.

"this is very cute card, however, the picture quality is still not right. we have a high resolution photo, and we love the actual photo, and we even chose to have the photo reviewed by a "professional" at tiny print - but it still came out kinda "funky" - too red, and our son's hair looks funny. i don't really want to send them to people... but i think tiny prints is a good company -"
"The soft colors of the bunny toile is just as precious as it looked on the computer screen. There's no reason a boys birth announcement can't be beautiful! I love my card."
"Everything about this product was top quality! The only thing is that I wish I could see the difference between matte vs glossy finish."
"Good quality heavy paper and a lovely size for a photo. Good contrast with a dark background photo and the colour block text area. Everyone thought they were very stylish and on trend without being fadish."
"The quality of the paper and the finish product is an a+. Everything at tinyprints is a little more expensive but you get what you pay for... and in my case, a bith announcement is something people/family keep forever! I also like how they make the whole process simple for you. They address and mail them for you! (for an extra cost). One other note is that once you input the addresses of your recipients then they are stored for the next time! Lastly, they can even photo shop things out of a picture for you... in my case it was a bleach spot on my baby's blanket!"

- Excellent FindCW09Dined on 11/22/2014Food menu was amazing, a little of everything with some unique entrees available. Caught ourselves looking at other tables and asking what they ordered. Noise level was a little too loud, but that could have been due to people being excited about watching football games. Great decor!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 11/1/2014This was our first visit here and we had a good experience. The service was great. Our waiter was very helpful with menu choices too. My husband loved that there were a few tv's with the game on. I loved that it was a sports bar and had an interesting menu. We ate the lettuce wraps, duck and risotto and pork chop. It was good. I didn't like that my table was wobbly and I kept sliding off my chair. It was slick.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great night!KCgirlDined on 10/17/2014The food was great, and the restaurant was very accommodating for our "surprise" birthday party. They allowed us to bring in cupcakes and balloons earlier in the day, and brought the cupcakes out after dinner with lit candles so we could sing! So fun!! Even helped us gauge how much champagne we would need for a toast near the end of the evening. A great night at a great place.Special Features:
- Fun cocktails, great food!JMHKCVIPDined on 9/5/2014I can't believe this place has been here for at least a year and we just now tried it out. I had only been there for happy hour once and enjoyed it and then finally made it back to try to the food. The cocktails with the infused spirits are great. You can be very creative and they have a great happy hour to explore. The food was excellent. Great mussels, delicious duck breast dish and a mac n cheese that you can enhance. We wrapped things up with a great lemon cake they had and it was really good. It's pretty sweet, so great to share, but really tasty. I look forward to returning and trying several other things on the menu. They are a "scratch kitchen" so they are really flexible in tailoring your dish if need be!Special Features:
- GoodFromLeawoodVIPDined on 8/26/2014This is close and in a convenient location. The inside of the restaurant is very trendy, comfortable and a nice size. The menu at lunch seems like there could be more choices. We had burgers and sandwiches. The service was tentative, and the food preparation seemed slow for what we ordered. We will try again.Special Features:
- disappointingkcreppatronDined on 8/10/2014This is a great location and I had high hopes, but ...... the service was ridiculously slow, particularly considering that they weren't all that busy and there seemed to be plenty of servers. Friends who had been there the week before (Sunday after church) had the same experience and were comp'd a cocktail. We received no offer of a comp, just excuses (lame ones at that) as to why the food took so long to come out. I won't be going back unless I hear of better experiences. Explains why the places up the street were so busy. BTW - noise level was not "energetic" more like too loud (but then I'm an older lady!)
- Consistent, Sort of.....OpenTable Diner Since 2008VIPDined on 8/9/2014Been to District many times & the food is consistently good/reasonably priced. (only a few great items though) The ambiance is good & the place has a definite cool vibe. The two things that have been an issue from DAY 1 are inconsistent service & very uncomfortable metal chairs. Our server this past weekend didn't know how to pronouce 1 of only 2 cabernets (Amigoni) on their small wine list & this is the 3rd time I've witnessed a different server struggle to open a bottle of wine! And the chairs. We were a party of 8 and my friend is a big guy (not fat, just big) and the 1st thing he said was "what's up w/these chairs!" You never want your 1st impression in a new restaurant to be "I'm not comfortable". Hopefully they will address this.
- Fun eveningPapaJimDined on 8/1/2014A complete surprise and change from what we knew as Romanelli's! The change was welcome and very comfortable. We definitely will come back to sample more of the menu!Special Features:
- The following 14 reviews are from the District. Pour House + Kitchen reviews archive.
- Great service!OpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 7/26/2014Good food. Even better prices on wine bottles. And they even gave the bachelorette a special whipped cream shot for free for the special occasion! Great waitress!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Surprisingly great foodLovenewplacesVIPDined on 7/26/2014We met some friends here and I thought it would be just like every other bar food place. I had their special which was wild samon on top of ravioli's. It was cooked perfect and lots of flavor in this dish. My friends had the Ruben which I don't even like but I had a bite and loved it. Another friend had the chicken lettuce wraps which I also tried and were spicy but also full of flavor. We will go back again doingSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A cool vibe with good food.VegfoodieDined on 7/9/2014This is my second time eating here (once for lunch), and both times I was pleased. The place itself has a "repurposed" hip feel to it. The food was really good (they do not skimp on their portions). The only issue that I had was with an appetizer we wanted to order. When asked to leave out the bacon (I know, shocking), the waitress stated that is was "premade"...which was a bit of a turn-off. We ordered the chicken wraps instead, and they were good and spicy!Special Features:
- Lunch is funDKorVIPDined on 7/2/2014Just had lunch here, but it was excellent. Fun dining outside along the sidewalk. We had the gumbo, which was fantastic. Want to go back to try more things.Special Features:
- Very impressed!LoMakDined on 6/14/2014We made a reservation for 13 on Saturday night. Our server was very attentive. Drinks took a while to make, but they were hand crafted, so we weren't bothered. One girl in our party didn't like the Trout, but was too timid to say anything. The owner came over to do a table check and someone else mentioned she didn't like her Trout. The owner was more than willing to get her a new dish in a timely manner. The way he approached and handled the situation was outstanding. Due to his actions we will all be back!
- Great BrunchOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 5/11/2014We enjoyed a wonderful brunch. Our waiter was great - had excellent recommendations for us and our picky eater. We will certainly return.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Won't be back!Olathe1VIPDined on 5/10/2014This was our second visit. We sat at the bar the first time and had a drink and it was fine. So we stopped with a group of 8 on a Saturday at 9 pm, only one other table there and our service was the worst we have ever had.
- Great Drinks & Wonderful Food!RYbauerDined on 5/3/2014This was our second time at District and we were just as pleased as we were out first visit. The atmosphere is wonderful, casual, and fun. Their new Spring menu is refreshing, light, and everyone at our table said their meal was delicious. As always the drinks were amazing and the service was great!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Easter brunchmblooDined on 4/20/2014Went for Easter brunch, the menu was the regular menu but the food was very good and reasonably priced. Infused drinks were also very good.Special Features:
- First visit was a 10!OpenTable Diner Since 2011VIPDined on 4/19/2014Our group of 9 had excellent service and good food. Kudos to the server for taking care of our group and for the birthday treat for the birthday boy!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Love this spot!SaritaDined on 4/12/2014The District is great! We brought my parents and the kids there for dinner Saturday and there was something for everyone. They just updated the menu for Spring and added some nice touches to the menu. Loved the quinoa salad and the seafood sliders!Special Features:
- Food is great but the place is LOUDGMNelsonDined on 3/29/2014Yep, the food is great. We had the gumbo, fried polenta, and we shared a salad. All of it was quite tasty - especially the gumbo. The service was so-so but I'll cut them some slack as the place was pretty packed. Unfortunately, we went there during some March Madness thing so it was extremely loud. We may return but it will probably be on a weeknight so that we can actually hear each other as we chat over our martinis.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Just rightLuluDined on 3/25/2014This was just the venue we were looking for … someplace new, with an interesting menu. I would imagine it would be crowded on the weekends, so the noise level would be more energetic. Food was delicious; service was great … what more can you ask for????Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Surprising, cool placeBrianVIPDined on 3/16/2014Came here because it was empty when the place up the street had an hourlong wait. May never go back to the other place. Loved the ambience--reclaimed wood (from bowling alleys!) makes up the table, locally sourced food and liquor, lots of homemade infused liquors (which I didn't sample at 11 a.m. but will go back for), and an above-average brunch menu really impressed me. Great service, great vibe. The food was very good (simple frittatas very well prepared); will have to go back to try more.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

Europe's crisis of faith
By POPE BENEDICT XVI - THE GUARDIAN
Added: Sun, 01 Jan 2012 14:05:38 UTC
Thanks to Osiris for the link.
As this year draws to a close, Europe is undergoing an economic and financial crisis, which is ultimately based on the ethical crisis looming over the old continent. Even if such values as solidarity, commitment to one's neighbour and responsibility towards the poor and suffering are largely uncontroversial, still the motivation is often lacking for individuals and large sectors of society to practise renunciation and make sacrifices. Perception and will do not necessarily go hand in hand.
In defending personal interests, the will obscures perception, and perception thus weakened is unable to stiffen the will. In this sense, some quite fundamental questions emerge from this crisis: where is the light that is capable of illuminating our perception not merely with general ideas, but with concrete imperatives? Where is the force that draws the will upwards? These are questions that must be answered by our proclamation of the Gospel, by the new evangelisation, so that message may become event, so that proclamation may lead to life.
Not only faithful believers but also outside observers are noticing with concern that regular churchgoers are growing older all the time and that their number is constantly diminishing; that recruitment of priests is stagnating; that scepticism and unbelief are growing. What, then, are we to do? There are endless debates over what must be done in order to reverse the trend. There is no doubt that a variety of things need to be done. But action alone fails to resolve the matter. The essence of the crisis of the church in Europe is the crisis of faith. If we find no answer to this, if faith does not take on new life, deep conviction and real strength from the encounter with Jesus Christ, then all other reforms will remain ineffective.
On this point, the encounter with Africa's joyful passion for faith brought great encouragement. None of the faith fatigue that is so prevalent here, none of the oft-encountered sense of having had enough of Christianity, was detectable there. Amid all the problems, sufferings and trials that Africa clearly experiences, one could still sense the people's joy in being Christian, buoyed up by inner happiness at knowing Christ and belonging to his church.

B&N's spooky glowing Nook unzips wand, turns 4GB into 2.5GB of space
Just in time for the holiday shopping season, US bookseller Barnes & Noble has refreshed its Nook line of e-readers with an upgraded glowing E Ink model. The new Android-powered device is essentially a refresh of the earlier Nook Simple Touch with GlowLight version, although this one drops the Simple Touch branding in favor of …

Re: Android?
No SD card, so no Android.
All that useless space...
A 4gig device with only 500meg available for non-official books. Crazy. And no way to root it. Bad. And rather ugly too.
Re: All that useless space...
Yeah, but Christ, how many books will 500mb hold? Text compresses like nobody's business and it's minuscule to begin with. What, say, 500 pages at 10 words per line and 50 lines per page - well, novels are usually around 60k words on the short side? Say 100k to be generous, and 10 bytes per word... That only gets you to 1mb per book uncompressed. Does anyone outside of edge cases really want more than six or seven hundred books on tap at a moment's notice?
Re: All that useless space...
No likey nooky booky.
Apart from the colour, there's an awful lot of margin around the display.
All that hidden space is to reserved for the NSA surveillance of you.

As the 1999-2000 school year recedes further and further in our rear-view mirrors, we need to prepare for the challenges of the coming school year.
On every school bus lurks that student (or group of students) who consistently misbehaves. Not only is this disturbing, but it can be downright dangerous.
International's new Integrated Conventional (IC) school bus marries body, chassis and engine, allowing the company to oversee design, manufacturing and quality-control processes.
From a simple Bus Empty sign to high-tech systems with microprocessors, several alternatives exist if you're shopping for a tool to remind drivers to check their buses.
One of the hot topics this election year is whether to let families use tax dollars to send their children to alternative schools.
International debuts its own conventional; No charges filed in fatal bus crash; Book readings help drivers bond with passengers
Even over-the-counter drugs, such as cough syrup and pain medication, can impair a driver's abilities. Drivers and supervisors need to be aware of this and other substance-abuse facts.
What's interesting about this television commercial is how it has resonated within the school transportation community. Through the grapevine, I've heard that school bus drivers, especially, have embraced this 30-second sales pitch like a newly found twin.
Small rewards, even Tootsie Rolls, and interest in their personal growth can encourage employees to give their best effort.
We all know that school bus drivers are not paid enough, respected enough, or given enough recognition as professionals. On the brighter side, there have been improvements in the past few years.

J The S - The Last Party (Remix)
Artist: J The S
Featuring: Jadakiss, Nipsey Hussle
Producer: M-Phazes
Album: The Last Days
Avg Rating: 2.8 ( 10 votes )
On J The S' last feature and current single, the Boston up-and-comer announced his intent to party till the sun burned out and the angels fell out of the sky, unconcerned as to whether he'd live to see the next day. Well, the emcee's still alive, the sun's right there where we left it, and I haven't seen any heavenly beings dropping from the clouds – thus, Jake's back to give the 'world-ending revelry' theme another spin with the official remix of The Last Party. While M-Phazes' funky, reader-acclaimed boardwork and Jadakiss' guest contribution are retained from the original, the three brand new verses make this retread well worth a listen. After fellow Bostonian Dre Robinson's opener, the headliner steps up to the mic to spit a few new bars, and West Coast revivalist/Booth favorite Nipsey Hussle rounds the track out with a breathless, characteristically impressive third verse. If you think TLP sounds just as fresh the second time around, keep it locked to the Booth. Though J The S' Last Days LP still has yet to receive a release date, you can rest assured that we'll bring you all the latest.

base D = nickel?
If it's a given that the NFL is a passing league, IMO it makes sense that your base D should be a nickel. Most teams have forgone fullbacks these days, instead running with 3 WR's or 2 TE's. Defenses should match personnel groupings, and that's what they usually do. I'd bet that most teams play nickel more than base.
In this paradigm, there should be 6 starting box players configured in either a 4-2 or a 3-3. Based on what Denver has been doing in free-agency and the draft, I'm thinking we will be spending lots of time in a 4-2...especially if the offense gets 1st half leads like we all think they will.
So, here's how I'm seeing it:
DL: Phillips (strong side DE), Ayers(?) (DT), Sly Williams (DT) Wolfe (weakside DE)
LB: Von at SAM and WW at WILL
This grouping would be ok vs the run for a nickel, but my god, the pass rush could be fantastic.
if you wanted to change things up, you rotate WW over to MIKE and play Phillips at WILL. Phillips can play coverage too, although that may not be his strong suit these days.
Regardless, the point is that just like FB has been de-emphasized in the modern NFL, I'm proposing FOX/Del Rio are de-emphasizing the role of the MIKE, in favor of extra secondary help. This explains why we picked up DRC and then spent a 3rd rounder on a CB, when we were returning all key players from last year, while at the same time we paid very little attention to the MLB role.
Does this all make sense?
You didn't sign Knighton and Vickerson all that money not to play. Obviously they will be in a lot of nickel, but it won't look like the above. Plus, when in Nickel, Von shifts to more of a pass rusher/DE role and Woodyard/Travathan (or whoever) would man the traditional nickel LB positions.
I think the pass rush would be nastier with Knighton or Vickerson clogging the middle and Sly free to rush the B Gap, with Wolfe and Ayers/Phillips on the outsides and Von free to choose his gap.
That wouldn't be even remotely "okay against the run"
I'm not proposing this D for 2nd and 3 - this is for 2nd and 7, 3rd and 5, etc. Traditionally, teams are in base and go to nickel in obvious passing downs - what about staying in nickel except for obvious running downs?
really, I'm trying to rationalize not having a stud MLB here. I trust Fox/Del Rio, just trying to figure out what they are doing.
Heck, if you look at denverbroncos.com's roster, we have only one guy listed as "MLB", and he's on his way out.
Ayers will not be a base DT. I'm hoping he's not a base anything.
I don't think JDR/Fox are de-emphasizing MLB either. Mays was playing something like 98% of the snaps before he got benched.
I think JDR now has the DTs that he wanted all along. THAT is where his emphasis was. Maybe that's why the Broncos didn't go into panic mode over Dumervil? I agree, it will be interesting to see what he does with the LBs now.
Ayers will be given a chance early on to see if he can produce in a starting roll at RDE. If not, Shaun Phillips will be ready to step in and snatch away a majority of his playing time (which I fully expect).
I see Phillips only in on passing downs possibly subing Miller when he needs a rest which was something Doom couldn't do.
I think they will try to let Miller play that "Hawk" formation that DT used to do and force teams to keep track of where he is at all times.
What if we get rid of all of our DBs entirely and just play WRs and TEs on defense? Then when the other team throws, we can easily pick off their passes!
Don't sleep on Trevathan. Once he gets an NFL body, he'll be a force to be reckoned with.
I'm also expecting big things out of Irving, but he's too slow to become an every down player.
I know that sometimes Von will line up as a DE on passing downs - so where does that leave Phillips? I don't think we brought him in just to spell Von...
Base 4-3 Under Defense (35% of plays):
Rush LB: Von Miller
5-tech: Derek Wolfe
1-tech: Kevin Vickerson
3-tech: Sylvester Williams
RDE: Shaun Phillips
MIKE: Nate Irving (or Keith Brooking)
WOLB: Wesley Woodyard

35-65? That seems extreme. I kind of doubt we will play 65% of defensive snaps with only 2 guys over 250 pounds.

Makes about 40
Preparation time: 20 minutes
Cooking time: 15 minutes
Preheat oven to 180°C. Line two oven trays with baking paper. Use an electric mixer to beat the butter and sugar in a medium bowl until pale and creamy. Add the egg and beat until just combined. Add the flour and custard powder and stir with a wooden spoon until just combined.
Use lightly floured hands to roll 1 1/2 teaspoons of mixture into small balls. Place on the lined trays, allowing room for spreading. Use a lightly floured finger or the end of a wooden spoon to make an indentation in the centre of each ball. Spoon 1/2 teaspoon of jam into the centre of each biscuit.
Bake in preheated oven, swapping trays halfway through cooking, for 15 minutes or until lightly golden and cooked through. Remove from oven and set aside on trays to cool completely.

I found the Menu planner/grocery list several years ago and have ordered them ever since. It helps me plan my weekly meals and grocery list so I don't over spend and buy stuff we really don't need or I can't use up in a week. It saves me time by not having to stop by the grocery store several times a week to pick-up several items to cook for dinner, pack lunches, snacks for the kids, etc.

I'm trying to budget for my groceries better and eat healthier and these pages are fantastic. I insert one for each Sunday of the month and then Saturday evening I sit down with my cookbook to pick out a few recipes to try and I can easily make my shopping list.

Great Menu Planner
By Sweet Candy
from Layton, UT
Perfect way to plan meals, check to see what I already have and just list what I need to buy. Categories help me list items as to where I'd find them in the store, making my shopping go faster and more efficient.I post the menu on the fridge to remind me what we planned to eat that week, and then list any items on the left that we are running low on so I can pick them up next week.

Product does what it is supposed to, wish there was more room in which to write menu plans, but that is not a defect in the product (since I have the compact planner, there is only so much room available to write).

I do have a calendar on my phone and have tried it, but I just prefer to write things down and flip pages to look. Love my nature calendar! I would like to have some with more leaves sometime and also a cover with a leaf design on it.
keeps track of items needed
By 1womanslife
from Wallsburg, UT
I write grocery items needed each day. Then, when shopping, its easy to pull out my "list". Only wish the "Shopping list" page were printed on the "first" page, and the "Menu planner" on the "back" page. When I open my planner, it would be easier to write on the first page, instead of "turning over" to the "back" side for Groceries.
Durable construction
I save all my monthly receipts in these envelopes. Then, at "tax time", I'm ready to share with my preparer. I never worry where to look for anything I've purchased through the year, all I do is look at each month's envelope, and at the end of each year, I can evaluate my "spending"..

The Immortality Project Awards Third Essay Prize
UCR research project selects article examining paranormal phenomena and supposed evidence of life after death
RIVERSIDE, Calif. — The Immortality Project, a research project funded by the John Templeton Foundation at the University of California, Riverside, has awarded its third essay prize to Jesse Bering for "Life after death: The idea of life after death lives on in near-death experiences and messages from beyond the grave. What's the evidence?"
The essay, which discusses supposed evidence of life after death from paranormal phenomena, such as near-death experiences and communication with ghosts, was published in the Nov. 13, 2013, issue of Aeon Magazine. Bering is a former psychology professor and now a full-time writer whose work has appeared in Scientific American, Slate and The Guardian. Among his books are "The Belief Instinct" and "Perv: The Sexual Deviant in All of Us."
"Bering is at once open-minded and skeptical," said John Martin Fischer, distinguished professor of philosophy at UC Riverside and principal investigator of The Immortality Project. "He is willing to go to great lengths to discover whether he can communicate with the deceased pioneer of paranormal studies, Ian Stevenson, all the while being frank about his difficulty believing in the possibility of what he has set out to do. Along with recounting his personal quest, Bering discusses some of the main themes in contemporary paranormal studies, as well as several of the research projects being funded by The Immortality Project. This article tackles a fascinating subject in a manner that is engaging, without losing sight of the proper rigor required for serious inquiry into these issues."
One goal of The Immortality Project is to advance discussion of the project themes in popular venues by offering essay prizes. The three-year project is funded by a $5 million grant the John Templeton Foundation awarded in 2012. A majority of the grant will be awarded to scientists, theologians and philosophers conducting research related to immortality. Winners of the science funding competition will present preliminary results of their research during a conference June 20-21 at UCR.
The John Templeton Foundation serves as a philanthropic catalyst for discoveries relating to the Big Questions of human purpose and ultimate reality. The foundation supports research on subjects ranging from complexity, evolution and infinity to creativity, forgiveness, love, and free will. It encourages civil, informed dialogue among scientists, philosophers and theologians, and between such experts and the public at large, for the purposes of definitional clarity and new insights. The foundation's vision is derived from the late Sir John Templeton's optimism about the possibility of acquiring "new spiritual information" and from his commitment to rigorous scientific research and related scholarship. The foundation's motto, "How little we know, how eager to learn," exemplifies its support for open-minded inquiry and its hope for advancing human progress through breakthrough discoveries.

text: Home > Medical > Tests and procedures Updated 25 July 2012 Toxicology Toxicological cases in South Africa are largely attributed to pharmaceuticals, drugs of abuse, pesticides, plants, solvents and metals. Unfortunately cases are not well documented. 0 Toxicological cases in South Africa are largely attributed to pharmaceuticals, drugs of abuse, pesticides, plants, solvents and metals. Unfortunately cases are not well documented and the poison info centres do not deal with the majority of cases. Factors such as natural diseases, chronic pain and mental health problems contribute to prescription drug overdose. It is for this reason that prescription drugs remain the most common compounds detected in toxicology cases. Prescription drugs Pharmaceuticals most commonly detected include theophylline - used to treat asthma symptoms; amitriptyline - an antidepressant drug; carbamazepine - anti-epileptic drug; antihistamine - cyclizine used to treat hay fever and orphenadrine, which is used in combination with aspirin as a muscle relaxant. There has been an increase in the number of cases where antidepressants have been detected, which is not surprising as the pressures of life are on the increase. Pesticides, paraffin and lead Organophosphorus and carbamate pesticides, notably Aldicarb, which is widely used as a rodenticide, are also commonly detected. However, the most common cause of accidental poisoning in South Africa is paraffin ingestion and each year, approximately 20,000 children suffer from the effects of this. Children under five years old are at the highest risk. The introduction of child resistant safety caps on paraffin bottles, (at the instigation of the Paraffin Safety Association of South Africa) has led to the decrease in the number of cases being reported. A large number of South African children are said to be exposed to lead from non-petrol sources, including paint, and from industrial usage. This problem was partially addressed by removing the lead from paints used to paint toys. Drug abuse There is also a notable increase in the number of toxicological poisonings in which drugs of abuse are detected. This increase appears to be similar to that reported worldwide. The drugs of abuse most commonly detected are methaqualone, cocaine and crack cocaine, amphetamines and heroin. Usually there is the usage of multiple illicit substances and/or alcohol simultaneously. Methaqualone and alcohol are commonly detected along with one or more drugs of abuse. Methaqualone is commonly known to the South African public as Mandrax and is manufactured locally. Amphetamines include crystal meth and ecstasy. Berries and herbal medicines Young children are often admitted to hospital after ingesting poisonous plants (mostly berries, which look edible). There are also cases of people being admitted after herbal medicine intoxication. Although only a handful of herbal remedies prescribed by traditional healers are actually toxic, the problem lies therein that these remedies contain no prescription insert as to dosage, and the constituents are also not listed. Another problem is that there could be interactions between the herbal remedies and some pharmaceutical substances. Herbal medicines are seen as natural by most people. However, for diseases that have no cure (such as HIV/Aids) people will take strange medications out of desperation. Venom Poisonings due to snakebites, spider bites or scorpion stings are very rare. However, people should be aware that black button spiders found country-wide, often inside homes, have neurotoxic poisons. Scorpions with thin pincers and thick tails are more venomous than those with thin tails and large pincers. These scorpions possess neurotoxic venom.

Your Daily Dispatch of Celebrity Shenanigans
Crashin' With The Biebs!: If you're getting married, you better think twice about playing Justin Bieber's music at your reception – he just might show up! The teen singing sensation turned up at a wedding in Malibu, Calif., on Saturday night with girlfriend Selena Gomez. "Last night at my cousin Jeanine's wedding reception, out of nowhere, Justin Bieber shows up while one of his songs was being karaoked by one of the wedding guests (Paige)," a YouTube user wrote on the video he posted of the singer at the wedding. "He stated that he was driving by the reception in Malibu and heard a party and his song being sung so he decided to check out the event and ended up making a celebrity appearance." Check out the Biebs hanging with the wedding party, HERE!

Music is horrible and extremely loud. Why can't people stream with no music? You'd probably get more viewers if you stream with no music and talked with the viewers. Your stream is also pretty laggy. Just a suggestion. But hey.. At least you get more viewers then I do when I play League. Then again, I think people are checking you out because you actually do look like a heavier version of Dyrus.
