Do You Really Need a Social Media Command Center?
by Susan Etlinger
In June 2010, Gatorade unveiled its "Mission Control Center," and in December of that year Dell announced its "Social Media Command Center." Organizations such as NASCAR, The Oregon Ducks and others have since discussed how they organize social data in a command center model. In 2013, Salesforce and Brandwatch announced command center products. But are these command centers useful, or do they create yet another shiny object—worse, a cost center—within the business?
How the Rise of Social Media is Revitalizing the Digital Revolution
by Brian Solis and Jaimy Szymanski
Social media has led to a revolution in business marketing, communication, and service, but social media in of itself isn't a means to an end. Instead, it is a powerful catalyst for business transformation. Successful companies are exploring how new technologies can reach and engage customers at every stage of the customer lifecycle. Marketing, service, sales, web, email, and more must now work together to drive desired experiences, optimize click paths, cultivate meaningful relationships, and drive business outcomes. To do so takes nothing less than an infrastructure inspired by new vision and supported by updated or entirely new systems, processes, and teams. To compete for the digital future, companies require complete business transformation.
A More Valuable Customer Relationship: Leveraging Social for Improved Cross-Channel Engagement
by Andrew Jones
Brands face increased competition for customer attention every day. The customer journey has become incredibly fractured, moving across various channels and devices while getting bombarded with more messages than ever. It has never been more complex—yet also so necessary—for brands to target and personalize customer messaging. Social media represents an opportunity to better understand individual consumers and then tailor communication with them across various channels, including email, advertising, website and others.

Using Social To Increase Employee Engagement and Advocacy
by Charlene Li and Jon Cifuentes
There is a fundamental disconnect between wanting engaged and active employees – and the concern that they may be too engaged and active in the wrong direction. The concept that every Employee is a Marketer thrills some companies – and absolutely terrifies most. This evolving view of employee engagement boils down to the evolving relationship between the employer and employee – all aspects of work are changing in the face of this new dynamic. Social becomes not the end goal but the forcing function, providing a new context for the entire employee engagement space. This report will answer: Does increased employee engagement via social channels lead to better customer engagement/advocacy and thus increased profits How can companies craft a strategy that explicitly leads from employee engagement through to employee advocacy – and measure the impact? What tools and technologies are available to support these efforts, both internally for employee engagement and externally for customer engagement/employee advocacy?
Managing the Execution of Social Business Strategy Through Governance
by Ed Terpening and Charlene Li
As a new medium, organizations struggle with managing social, especially given the fact that it spans multiple paid/owned/earned media and internal silos. This stress intensifies as organizations mature from Engagement to Strategic social business maturity levels. The crux of the struggle is ownership and empowerment at scale, expressed as these pain points: which decisions need to be governed, and by whom? How is conflict resolved among spokes/silos? What principles guide decision-making? Who owns social business, and how is that adopted and extended by spokes/silos? This best practices report will define social business governance, and how it relates to existing digital governance systems; the scope and boundaries of governance; and what good governance looks like.
When I published the first in a new series of reports exploring the state and future of Digital Transformation, it was almost the antithesis of a typical technology report.
I'm not generally a fan of annual predictions; they always remind me of a carnival in which you're encouraged to "pay no attention to the man behind the curtain"; you almost never win the giant teddy bear.
Content marketing is hot, but it is not solely created by, inspired by, or used by marketing.
The story of the blind men and the elephant originated centuries ago in the Indian subcontinent. In the well-known parable, each man has limited context and therefore believes the elephant to be something different. One feels the trunk and thinks it's a fountain. One touches the ear and thinks it's a fan. Others think it's […]
Employees are disengaged at work, and organizations have been exploring how social and digital technologies can address this problem.
For most of digital marketing's relatively short history, personalization has been the ne plus ultra of sophisticated marketing.
Content. It's not just for the marketing department anymore. These last few months I've been researching how organizations are forming, and benefitting from, what my co-author Jessica Groopman and I are terming a "Culture of Content."

In our research and client work at Altimeter, one of the most misunderstood issues we see is social business governance.

What goes into the marketing process today, and what technology is required? Will a "Marketing Cloud" help coordinate efforts and drive efficiency? What are the alternatives?
We're in the final stages of a new research report that is looking at the hot space of social selling, exploring how this nascent but quickly evolving approach to the sales process is being used by both sales and marketing teams with both trepidation and success.
According to Wikipedia, "marketing is the process of communicating the value of a product to customers, for the purpose of selling that product (goods or services.)" But that is what marketing used to be
Social selling has become a hot topic. Organizations in every industry are working feverishly to leverage social platforms and social networks for a number of reasons

Content Marketing: How do we do it globally?

To learn more about the state of social media command centers, Altimeter Group spoke with three organizations — MasterCard, eBay, and Wells Fargo Bank.
Late last year, I started wondering about social media command centers. Salesforce had launched one, as had Brandwatch, but I wondered: were they really still relevant? Were companies investing in command center deployments, or had interest subsided since their heyday in 2010?
When Google bought Wildfire for $350M, it took many by surprise. What did Google want with a Social Relationship Management company? Google is in the ad business, not the SRM business.

Two things: To stay competitive with (or arguably ahead of) the giants in the social world—Salesforce, Adobe, and Oracle—Sprinklr needed to build out its analytics capabilities. Sprinklr's customers increasingly need custom consulting services, especially for implementation and training.
It's almost that time of year again: Altimeter's analysts are mapping SXSW plans and schedules. Making the trip to Austin this year are Brian Solis, Susan Etlinger and Rebecca Lieb.
Large enterprises are rolling out social media at scale – and training and education for employees is critical. Well-developed social media education programs can help companies achieve business goals by reducing social media risk and activating employees for engagement and advocacy.
One question Altimeter hears frequently is "What's next?" A better way to ask this is "What should we care about?" Often with emerging technologies, there is a disconnect between what people are excited or care most about versus what they will actually invest in.
Digital, Social, Content Strategists: We want to hear from you! Would you be willing to participate in our latest survey? Click here to get started: http://bit.ly/1bK8TRE Wondering how other organizations are mapping their customer journeys?
Last week, Charlene Li, Ed Terpening, and I hosted a webinar on how large enterprises — like ARAMARK, Aetna, Kaiser Permanente, RadioShack — are rolling out corporate social media education, and why.
Take a look around our site today, you might notice a very subtle change. We've seen a lot of change in our industry, not to mention at Altimeter, since we started five years ago. It felt like the right time to refresh our brand.
Facebook may be losing teens (/the cool kids), but contrary to some beliefs, 2014 will not be a dire year for the company.
Real-time content synchronization between offline and online media has become the darling of social TV, frequently serving as its very definition for companies looking to marry traditional and digital marketing experiences.
As we launch into 2014, the analysts at Altimeter each pulled together a compilation of trends and issues they are watching closely this year.
Customer attention will continue to fragment in 2014, making it harder than ever for brands to engage with customers. But it will also be the year in which brands capitalize on a largely untapped opportunity presented by social media…
As digital channels operate increasingly in the 'now,' all marketing organizations must consider to what degree they will function in real-time, and even define what real-time is relative to their operations and marketing organization.

Last year, we asked companies about their top social strategy priorities. The second top response was "Developing Internal Education and Training." Yet, when we surveyed companies earlier this year, we saw that only 38% had any education program in place, beyond ad hoc efforts.
In the past year, social data has continued to wend its way into organizations of all types, from large enterprise to small business to media and entertainment and the public sector. We've seen use cases far past marketing into product and service quality, entertainment programming, customer service, fraud detection and a host of other examples.
Last month, we published our report, The State of Social Business 2013, based on data and analysis from four years of Altimeter's annual digital strategists' survey. Today, we're happy to release the data charts from that report, in a downloadable, easy to share PowerPoint presentation that you can take and inject in your own presentations.
If you're a marketer who has evaluated native advertising offerings, then you're likely already familiar with Facebook's suggested posts, Twitter's sponsored tweets and hashtags, or sponsored content on any number of online publications.
Each year, Altimeter surveys social strategists and executives, and shares our findings and analysis in Open Research reports. In our most recent report, we looked at our survey findings from the last four years, 2010 to 2013, to share our analysis of the state of social business.
On Tuesday, Sprinklr raised $17.5M in series C funding. That follows additional rounds raised by other enterprise social media management vendors in the past year, including: Spredfast raised an $18M series C in February, Hootsuite raised $165M in its series B in August, and HearSay Social raised $30M in its series C in September. What […]
The concept of using game mechanics to achieve desired outcomes may not be new, but to many brands, the use of gamification across the enterprise to drive business value is gaining speed.

I am thrilled to announce the promotion of Andrew Jones to Analyst at Altimeter.

Co-written with: Susan Etlinger, Rebecca Lieb, Andrew Jones, Linda Saindon, Brian Solis, and Ed Terpening The not-so-long awaited Twitter S-1 is out and now the intense scrutiny begins.
What is native advertising and, by extension, what is it not?
Jeremiah Owyang will be leaving Altimeter Group at the end of September to start a new company focused primarily on his passion for the Collaborative Economy.
Not since the legislative debate over spam back in the early part of the millennium has a digital marketing term been so riddled by obfuscation and misunderstanding as native advertising.
As the founder of a small business, I know that the hiring and departure of each and every person makes a huge impact of the firm — and that this is an evitable part of the business.
In this report, industry analyst Susan Etlinger demonstrates how leading organizations are deriving actionable intelligence from a holistic view of social and enterprise data.

In this 1- hour webinar, industry analyst Jeremiah Owyang presents his research on the business disruption, and share examples of companies that are already moving into the Collaborative Economy.
Altimeter analysts Charlene Li and Brian Solis proudly introduce their new book The Seven Success Factors of Social Business Strategy. It was written to help readers learn how to better align social media strategies with business objectives to deliver real results and ROI.
In this webinar, Altimeter Group's Charlene Li and Brian Solis review the six distinct stages that organizations move through as they evolve their social business strategy.
Five years ago, I started a company. At the time, it was simply just me deciding I wanted to do something different. I learned it was by far the hardest professional decision I have ever made, to strike out on my own.
This report defines the Collaborative Economy, looks at companies that are already moving into this space, and provides a framework, the Collaborative Economy Value Chain, which companies can use to help rethink their business models.

More than a handful of brands publish more content now than a major media property such as Time Magazine did 25 years ago.
Over 30 Technologies Have Emerged, at a Faster Pace than Companies Can Digest. If you think social was disruptive, it was really just the beginning.
We all gathered amidst the rain and clouds at Facebook HQ, 1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, CA to see what would be unveiled. A new flagship Android phone, tailored toward Facebook users? A new branch of the Android OS? A groundbreaking partnership?
SXSW Interactive—or what I like to call it, "Geek Mardi Gras"—is over, and the dust is settling.
It's been a week since SXSW 2013 and here at Altimeter Group, we've had a chance to reflect on what we saw. Check out our coverage from analysts, consultants, researchers, and even media. We'll be updating as more coverage comes in.
Technologies are Emerging at an Increased Rate –Making Tracking Harder than Ever SXSW is no longer about disruptive technologies being launched, instead, it's a mainstream, it's a mainsteam festival, actually) and digital leaders at today's large corporations are already present, and you should be too.
Is SXSW for Business or just a Boondoggle? That's the wrong question. More than ever, I heard more folks debating if SXSW was good for business, or just a big party.
In its latest research, Altimeter Group's Charlene Li and Brian Solis uncovered a distinct gap between organizations that execute social media strategies and those that are truly a "social business."
My colleague Brian's blog is abuzz with comments about mobile strategy, so key to success he urges readers to "[f]orget about social media," at least for a moment. Brian's comparison of social to mobile is apt, both began as fragmented, bootstrapped efforts, then social got the attention of the CMO.
Yesterday's Burger King brandjacking was an important reminder to brands and their agency and software partners about how vulnerable social media accounts are.
Last week, Jeremiah and I published Altimeter Group's first "short doc," focused on in-depth case studies that illustrate how large brands are managing complex, distributed social media programs.
That Time of Year is rapidly approaching: "Will you be there?" "Are you speaking?" "When are you in town?" The Altimeter Group analysts attending SXSW 2013 next month are Jeremiah Owyang, Brian Solis, Susan Etlinger, Chris Silva and Rebecca Lieb.
For the last few years (see 2012 data). This analysis is a bellwether on how brands will spend on an integrated experience for the year.
Businesses may be seen as having a "successful" social strategy by virtue of citations in case studies and speaking at conferences. But, by far, the best metric of success is concrete examples of how the organization creates business value via social technologies across multiple departments and dimensions of their business.
Altimeter continues to grow with the addition of Ed Terpening as Senior Consultant, where he will be leading Altimeter's client engagements and develop Altimeter Academy the company's new training offerings.
It's a nightmare scenario. You get a frantic text or call from a co-worker that someone tweeted a tasteless joke or profanity from your corporate Twitter account.
One of the major themes in our research this year is Adaptive Organization. As we think about what makes organizations adaptive, it's not just the tools and services that they embrace but also their ability to adapt to change to stay in touch internally and to reach customers and prospects proactively.
Advertising and media are converging. The results will disrupt how companies must deploy their marketing efforts.
The volatility of social data and the pace of change mean that tried-and-true measurement methods are no longer enough. Social data is different.

In the wake of the Samsung/Apple trial verdict the news is crawling with hyperbole about how disruptive the verdict will be to the mobile OS ecosystem, specifically Android's momentum.
Social media is the modern Pandora's box: it has had a meteoric rise as a tool to interact and engage with customers, but also a dark underside exposing companies to new types of risk.
Google announced Google+ for Enterprises today with Hangouts integration into Docs and Calendar as well as administrative controls such as default posting to only within the company.
Real-world case studies of best practice training programs are discussed, as well as outcome-oriented training strategies that will keep all levels of employees engaged.
Thanks to all those who helped us make our #AGMobileUP Tweetup a success last night in Boston. We had a great and varied group of attendees hailing from agencies, mobile startups and the VC community as well.
What we found was that social media is the modern Pandora's box – It has great value but almost two-thirds of companies we surveyed say that social media is a significant or critical risk to their brand reputation.
We talk a lot about screens these days, so much so that for me to type the word "table" without appending a "t" onto the end has become somewhat of a difficult task. That said, there's much talk about how it's important to converse with customers across the multiplying number of screens we interact with […]
Everyone talks about the challenges of measuring the revenue impact of social media, but how are top brands actually doing it? And are they successfully measuring ROI?
In the late 20th century, when the commercial internet was in its infancy, there was no end to the griping about "silos." Back then silos referred to That Which Is Digital and That Which Is Not Digital. The gripe (from the digital side of the equation) was that the not-digital team got all the budget, […]

Altimeter Group continues its blog ring in July and August to deepen understanding of our three research themes. The next theme of focus is the Adaptive Organization.
I spent yesterday morning at the Google I/O developer conference and, aside from people literally skydiving into the event – the news was largely tech-related and heavily mobile. Google made announcements of its new Nexus Tablet, the JellyBean aka Android 4.1 OS and home media sharing features of its new Nexus Q device.
Below is a 15 minute video which encapsulates Altimeter's themes on the Dynamic Customer Journey and the Sentient World.
Today marks the publication of Altimeter Group's newest enterprise mobility research report, authored by analyst Chris Silva.
The run-up to Facebook's IPO reminds me a bit of a wedding: everyone's attention is on the big day (expected to be Friday May 18), without much regard for the weeks, months and years afterward.
A new software category has emerged to bring performance marketing to social channels.
In a stunning early finding of interviews with nearly a dozen social media agencies and software providers, I'm seeing a new trend: Social media agency of record (SMaoR) are now moving into advertising buying.
Taking the Enterprise Mobile – We're Researching It
Did you miss today's webinar with Charlene Li and Chris Silva talking about the proper foundation for mobile business? If so, please see a full replay of today's content, available on Vimeo.
Curation is taking over the digital content scene. With related applications and platforms multiplying, the act of collecting and sharing content has become second nature for most of us.
The potential for social influence is enormous on both sides of the equation. Services that rank and identify "influence" open the door to new opportunities for businesses to cultivate mutually beneficial relationships with digital tastemakers and authorities.
Even though the topic of social media ROI may sometimes seem like an endless game of Whack-a-Mole [see previous post], there's plenty of evidence to suggest we're inching ever closer to accountability.
As an analyst and research firm focused on disruptive technologies, our clients and others frequently ask us what we are paying attention to and what we are researching.

The Altimeter Group will be present at SXSW Interactive festival to research, interact, and share our insights on disruptive technology at this year's 2012 SXSW in Austin Texas.
In 2011, the US hit a milestone — more than half of all adults visit social networking sites at least once a month. But when it comes to using social-networking technologies inside organizations, many business leaders are at a loss to understand what value can be created from Facebook-like status updates within the enterprise.
So content is the new black (and some 270,000 exact-match results for that phrase on Google suggest it's at least a deep, deep indigo).

There's been a rash of news stories recently with headlines so misleading it's hard to believe they passed editorial muster. Yet a quick search of Google News reveals no less than five articles with ledes very much like this one: P&G to cut 1600 staff after CEO discovers digital media is free.

Get account control now –or risk a career of continual social media sanitation. To match the growing consumer adoption of social media, many companies have launched social media efforts with little planning.
Sales and operations planning processes are 35 years old and are currently experiencing a renaissance. The redefinition of the process powers growth and improves resiliency in the face of increasing volatility.
If you have a website, a blog, or even a Facebook or Twitter presence, you are a publisher. Think like one: build a digital content strategy that embraces words, images and multimedia to systematically enhance consumer engagement and conversion rates.
The End of Business As Usual explores each layer of the complex consumer revolution that is changing the future of business, media, and culture. As consumers further connect with one another, a vast and efficient information network takes shape and begins to steer experiences, decisions, and markets. It is nothing short of disruptive.
As mobile becomes the leading means for users to interact with brands, content, and one another inside of organizations, simply "getting to mobile" is not strategy enough.
What's a crises? We did analysis on the list of social media crises aka "punkings" to find out what went wrong, why, and what should have been done.
Wherever I go, the question I hear most often is this: "What is the ROI of social media?" Even though most companies we've surveyed have a brand monitoring solution in place, few have yet to crack the measurement code. It remains one of the most stubborn challenges for the social business.
Charlene Li sat down with Ken Blanchard, the author of The One Minute Manager, on the morning of June 21st, 2011 to discuss how leadership is being affected by social media.
Is the supply chain ready to be social? And, if so, how do companies begin the journey? What steps do they take?
Engage! examines the social media landscape and how to effectively use social media to succeed in business—one network and one tool at a time. It leads you through the detailed and specific steps required for conceptualizing, implementing, managing, and measuring a social media program.
There's more to disruptive technologies than social to watch. In fact, we're exploring a variety of new disruptive technologies, to see how they impact business, culture, and customer relationships.
One question I frequently get is "How much should I be spending on social media?" The answer, of course, is it depends. This report looks at how 140 Social Strategists spent on social media in 2010 — and their plans for 2011 (read report).
Last quarter, Altimeter hosted a conference on The Rise of Social Commerce, in which we release a research report based on interviewing dozens of companies who are integrating ecommerce with social media.
This Social Media Decision Maker Must Choose One of Two Career Paths. This emerging role is critical to the success of social media programs yet, most Social Strategists and their programs lack maturity, with only 23% of Social Strategists having a formalized program with long-term direction.

Altimeter Group conducted research, and gleaned input from 34 vendors, agencies, and experts, to determine success criteria and develop a roadmap for Facebook page best practices.
Social technologies are disrupting traditional business models, and the analyst industry is no exception.
While numerous social media measurement technologies exist, no single tool can adequately measure and provide insights for all social marketing activity.
In Open Leadership, Charlene Li offers the next step resource that shows leaders how to tap into the power of the social technology revolution and use social media to be "open" while maintaining control.
"Be Open, Be Transparent, Be Authentic" are the current leadership mantras — but companies often push back.
I conducted the first of four Webinars on the ideas around "Open Leadership" and am making available the slides as well as a video recording. This Webinar laid out the reasons why open leadership is inevitable and required because of the adoption of social technologies.
We finally completed our final third webinar in our social strategy trilogy. It's been great sharing our insights and widely releasing it to the community, and I hope you enjoy this final segment.
This webinar follows Altimeter Group's recently published open research report: Social CRM: The New Rule of Relationship Management, which covers 18 uses cases of social CRM.
Social and CRM: How Companies Will Manage Their Social Relationships Over the last six months, I've been working closely with Ray Wang who is well known in the CRM space as an expert. Coupled with my focus on social technologies we did a deep dive on how our worlds are intersecting at Social CRM.
Jeremiah Owyang and I held a webinar entitled "Developing A Social Strategy" that had over 495 participants asking very insightful questions — we had a great time sharing the information and got new ideas on how to develop our thinking as well.
In 2009, a subset of the marketing-focused chapters were published as "Marketing In The Groundswell."
Putting the Public Back in Public Relations is a crucial guidebook for helping brands navigate the social economy, while enhancing your career and future in the process.
In this book, leading search optimization expert Rebecca Lieb brings together more than 50 absolutely crucial facts and insights decision-makers must know to drive more web traffic through better search engine placement.
Groundswell is required reading for executives seeking to protect and strengthen their company's public image.
Now Is Gone seeks to help businesses embrace Social Media intelligently. Readers can learn if their organization is ready, how to begin, the predominant participation is marketing approach that other businesses are using, social media marketing strategies, and general social media insights.

A few reasons not to panic after Boston's Game 1 loss
So many things went wrong yesterday for the Boston Celtics, spanning from their inability to rebound, to Ray Allen's continued struggles, to Ed Molloy's quick technical foul whistle, to Miami's overwhelming athleticism, at least the latter of which doesn't figure to change at any point during the series.
One aspect of yesterday's game which Boston can count on to change, writes SB Nation's Mike Prada, is Rajon Rondo's underwhelming performance.
Prada noted Miami's second-half defensive adjustment, when Erik Spoelstra mostly went away from Mario Chalmers as the primary Rondo defender. The Heat coach gave the assignment to Dwyane Wade and LeBron James, both of whom can bother Rondo with length, strength and quickness. The two Heat superstars provided plenty of help off Rondo, but the strategy was nothing the Celtics haven't seen before. The Heat didn't invent a brand new chemistry equation; they simply substituted a more explosive element to make the resulting compound more dangerous.
Despite James and Wade's athleticism that allows them to cover more court than almost any other human beings, expect the Celtics to counter that in Game 2 to make the Heat pay for sagging off Boston's lead guard so strongly.
Doc Rivers will adjust. He'll send someone to screen Wade and have Rondo make strong cuts to get open. He may even put Rondo on the baseline and run more of the offense through Paul Pierce. The important thing is that he'll do something to help free Rondo up.
Even if the Celtics do nothing differently in Game 2, Rondo's output should improve. The Celtics should be encouraged by the notion that Rondo's performance was close to being quite a bit better.
More importantly, Rondo will simply make the Heat pay more if he converts more layups. Seventeen of Rondo's 20 shots were in the paint on Monday. Ten of those 17 shots didn't go in. On the season, Rondo hit 59 percent of his shots at the rim … and that was his lowest percentage since 2008. The Heat contested nearly all of those layups well and actually blocked several, to be fair, but they can't possibly count on replicating that kind of performance at the rim. If Rondo hits, say, five of those 10 layups, then his stat line looks much more impressive and this game is much closer.
And Rondo could have registered plenty more assists, too. In the first half alone, KG missed a wide open layup (the very first play of the game) and an alley-oop dunk, and also failed to catch a Rondo pass that would have resulted in another naked look from the interior. Add those three assists to Rondo's total, sprinkle in a few more made jump shots from Brandon Bass, Ray Allen and Paul Pierce (who shot a combined 10-for-36), and suddenly Rondo's 16-points, nine-rebound, seven-assist night could have looked more like 22 points, nine rebounds and 13 assists, and the final score might have been a lot closer.
While the Celtics were busy botching layups inside or being bothered by Miami's swarming defense (the Celtics, who shot 63.0 percent at the rim this season according to Hoop Data, hit just 15 of 30 such attempts in Game 1), the Heat were converting everything they put up close to the rim against Boston's normally-stout interior (the Heat hit 17 of 20 such shots in Game 1, for an 85 percent conversion rate well above their 63.9 percent season average). Part of Miami's heightened success rate was the result of two of the game's best shot-makers hitting shots, and part of it was that their increased spacing with Shane Battier playing instead of Chris Bosh often kept Kevin Garnett away from the paint. But the Celtics probably won't hit just 50 percent at the rim for the remainder of the series, nor are the Heat likely to maintain such a lofty conversion rate.
It's easy to discount the Celtics after they were so handily dispatched in Game 1, and the Heat certainly do provide a stiff test on both ends of the court. But with a few regressions to the mean (Rondo's interior shots, both teams' conversion rates at the rim, Paul Pierce scoring more than .67 points per shot), Game 2 could be plenty different.
2 Responses to "A few reasons not to panic after Boston's Game 1 loss"
Let's be a little more blunt. When the Celtics ran their offense with a little bit of focus and energy, they did well. Very well. When they played lethargically, they did awful.
As for scoring in the paint, yeah, it's hard against these guys, especially when only one or two guys are really trying to make something happen. Rondo needs to figure out how to get that dang ball in the basket in traffic. He's got to figure out a trick or two. It's not an impossible task. But that will be easier if the entire team plays with some energy.
The Cs played badly. When they played well, they outplayed the Heat.
Like or Dislike: 0 0
All rondo needs to do is shoot. Really when Lebron is guarding him, he needs to shoot, if he makes it good if not, then KG and Bass should be able to rebound, Period. Lebron is their leading rebounder with Bosh out !!

Adult Nurse Practitioner in St.Loius University,anyone? - page 2
Hi!Has anyone here went to St. Louis University for ANP program? I am going to start the program this fall and I just want to get some info how was the program? Im working 3 and 4 days in 2 weeks as an RN, should I take 2 or 3... Read More
- 0Im in the ANP program. Im taking nursing research, patho and health promotion. I work full time (3, 12 hour shifts) and have an 18 month old. My son is in daycare 4 days a week so that I am able to do homework on my days off. Patho is a lot of work. There is a lot of studying. I think I study about 90min-2 hours a night just to keep up with the reading. The other 2 classes aren't hard. Just busy work...papers, discussion questions, projects. The courses are easy to navigate and instructors respond immediately. I have a 3.89 GPA with my BSN and could not get unto the FNP program. So I got into ANP and will later add on a family certificate if I'm still interested. The curriculum is the same, only ANP doesn't have pediatrics.
- 0Holy Mackerel! That sounds like a ton of work. You are a busy gal to juggle 3 classes, FT work and a toddler. I have applied to the psych program. I can't believe you didn't get in with that high GPA. Did they say why? Are there tests per se? Proctored exams? I can't even envision what the material is like. IF I'm accepted it will be a HUGE undertaking for me; so I'm trying to learn all I can about the rigors of the program. Please feel free to PM me if you like. Thanks so much and all the best to you!
- 0Thanks, Im still pretty new to this site...not sure how to PM you? I clicked on your name and didnt see messaging there either. I'm pregnant with my second so I really wanted to get 3 classes out of the way as soon as possible. They said they only accept 25 students in the FNP program and it was tough competition. I spoke with the Dean and she is the one who suggested ANP, which still had openings. Patho has test. They are proctored. You need a webcam for your computer so they watch you. No books or notes for the exams. there are 6 exams and the final is not cumulative, thank goodness!
- 0Thanks allsia07 for taking time to answer my questions. How long after you applied before you heard? Was it by email or snail mail? I'm on pins and needles. I'm overwhelmed by the idea of going but...I really want to. I just don't know what a reasonable course load is if I get accepted. I'm in no rush to finish but I don't want to plod along either. Were they helpful at assisting with your program course of study? Admissions has been very easy to deal with; now I hurry up and wait. I'm finishing up my BSN this semester but have been a nurse a while. The research class I'm in now is awful. What does yours entail?
- 0I think I heard within 30 days of the application deadline. I received a congratulatory email first and then got the same letter via snail mail a week later. 1-2 courses per semester is the normal course load to finish in 3 years. My advisor was very helpful organizing my plan of study. We had to switch some classes around so that i met before clinicals. Nursing research now is just like my BSN. Lots of papers and peer reviewed articles.
- 0Thank you again for this information. I envision grad school as very intense. I don't know what I'll do if I'm accepted or what I'll do if I'm not, lol! Didn't know you could finish in 3 yrs taking 1-2 courses/week. I look forward to hearing more as you progress. Good luck with your little ones!

Here's a detailed rundown from The Huffington Post on what exactly is in the deal.
New York Times columnist Paul Krugman calls the deal a "catastrophe on multiple levels."
The White House, on the other hand, calls it "A Win for the Economy and Budget Discipline."
Former Secretary of Labor Robert Reich argues "the radical right has now won a huge tactical and strategic victory."
The New Republic's Jonathan Chait says we won't know who won this debate "until after the fight over the Bush tax cuts has been settled."
nitetalker commented on the blog post Whip the Super Congress: Head Count #1
Jane, the email I got (11:59 EDT) from MoveOn said to tell them whether you are in favor of or oppose the deal:
Dear MoveOn member,
As you've probably read, Republicans are holding our country's credit hostage and demanding major spending cuts to critical programs without ending tax breaks for the wealthy. If a deal isn't reached by tomorrow night—or a short-term extension isn't passed by then—the nation will default on its debts.
President Obama just announced an agreement with congressional leaders. We want to see what MoveOn members think of the deal. (For more information on the details of the deal, see below.)
Supporting the deal means we would encourage Congress to vote for it and avert default. Opposing the deal means we would encourage members of Congress to vote no and demand that the deal be improved before it's passed.
Can you let us know what you think? Should MoveOn support the deal to raise the debt ceiling?

When they overreach, as this era's Republicans always do, the opposition must forcefully slap their hands away. The Wisconsin 14 is that rare group of Democrats that 1) have figured that out and 2) seem willing to follow through. May their collective will remain strong.

nitetalker commented on the blog post Budget Showdown Continues as Public Expresses Opposition to Major Cuts
The President could set his parameters, Republicans could set theirs, and then the decision would be up to Congress on whether to run into a veto or craft something that could be signed.
Obama doesn't want to do that because he's quite willing to compromise on spending cuts, and he would rather that came out of secret negotiations so nobody knows his opening hand in the debate.
On target, David. Obama's MO is well-established: he'll deal himself a bad hand — and then fold quickly.

I have worn Cruel jeans a long time but last 3 pair weren't half as nice as my older ones. Denim very thin and the fit wasn't good. Crotch stitching was way off and the color has faded significantly for new jeans.

I love Cruel Girl Jeans but the last two pair I have owned have ripped next to the crotch. Seems like the quality is diminishing. Still love them! Just hoping the newest pair I bought holds up better.

This is all I wear and the last 3 pair don't fit like the others.
04/06/2013By Beth
Like the jeans, need to return for a size smaller.

Published January 13, 2013 12:00 On a windy Finals Day, Elena Vesnina took down defending champion Mona Barthel, 63 64. Elena Vesnina dropped to the court after defying her 0-6 career record in WTA finals. Elena Vesnina became the Moorilla Hobart International's 20th anniversary champion. Elena Vesnina took her trophy on a photo shoot over to nearby Battery Point in Hobart. Elena Vesnina's Saturday trophy photo shoot wouldn't end at Battery Point, either... Elena Vesnina headed over to the Henry Jones Art Hotel to continue the photo shoot. Earlier in the press room, Elena Vesnina said she had been waiting for this a long time.

App Changes
March 22, 2013 Initial Release

Though the demo version of Devil May Cry, which was included in Resident Evil Code: Veronica X, created considerable buzz, Capcom recently made several changes to the Devil May Cry gameplay system. As opposed to the format used in Capcom's Resident Evil and Onimusha, where players can roam around different areas in one giant map, Devil May Cry will now be mission-based.
In the demo build of Devil May Cry, eliminating enemies rewarded the player with red orbs, which could be used to unlock doors and move on to the next area. In the final game, players will instead gain experience points. The method and style in which the player kills each monster is a factor in how many points the player gains. These points can then be used to acquire new moves for Dante, as well as purchase items at the beginning of each mission.
Devil May Cry for the PlayStation 2 is scheduled for release on August 23 in Japan for a price of 6,800 yen. A specific North American release date has not been announced at this time.

Enjoyed the book, enjoyed the movie, and enjoyed this narrative version. The author is as wonderful a narrator as she is a writer!
"Too gorey for me..."
Couldn't finish it... I'm pretty hardy when it comes to murder and mayhem, but this guy's imagination was too, too ... much for me!
"Is that all?"
The story just stopped ... The narratives were good, and the stories were interesting, but it all just sort of stopped and left me with the idea that the writer got bored with the story.
The story description sounded so charming, I was really looking forward to this read. However, the author's narration is so lackluster and one-dimensional, I gave up on it after a couple of chapters. I typically enjoy Deborah Smith's books, so I bought the hard copy to read instead. Big Disappointment.

After a handful of years spent experimenting with a broad spectrum of psychedelic music while based in Newark, Delaware, two of this band's founding members relocated to Los Angeles. There they found like-minded musicians, and for a while, Spindrift included members of Psychic TV, Brian Jonestown Massacre and Warlocks. The sound the group created at the time has since evolved into a mixture of melancholy and burnished passion as heard in the soundtracks of spaghetti Westerns and '70s exploitation movies, and the brooding, fiery moods that course through Spindrift's music have been utilized to great effect in various TV shows and movies. The fruits of Spindrift's labors were released last year on the aptly titled Classic Soundtracks, Vol. 1. Live, the band lives up to the implied hype.

That was great!
But the sick part about it was that it IS TOO REAL!
....Don't know anything about the sponsor....
Because: Some animals are more equal than other animals. -Animal Farm-

The video is good..
but the source is questionable.
They seem to be asking for more and better regulation and I prefer free markets.
Click on this link if you must: http://unitedrepublic.org/
Their slogan is : "Democracy is not for sale." Yet they talk about a United Republic.
Drive by posting, so to
Drive by posting, so to speak, but the subject in hand is both funny and agreeable, as for what else they've done, ive honestly not seen, well apart from one other one, which i also found quite funny, hell they could be 100% neocon for all i know, and in that case, meu colpa........just trying to lighten the mood, for a while at least
I just happened to drive by again..
Notice that website they are promoting at the end of the video and the link that shows up in the description of their video?
Well I did and had a look and didn't like the message they are pushing.
I can comprehend that it is tempting for their organization to try to get some friends and money from the Liberty Movement, but until they change their message, they can expect not to get any support from people like me.
We have many great projects to support. I personally try not to promote any organizations that are not inline with the ideas that Ron Paul defends.
i respect your twocents, and
i respect your twocents, and ill try to check more carefully, purely because i agree with that sentiment.
it didnt occur to me until later that i should have put it in the music/video thread, having the same thoughts you mentioned at the time, but not the "inspiration" i have now, instead of making a dedicated thread, maybe i should leave the thread making to those who know what they are doing.....mmm, thats gonna be hard
BTW.. please don't stop posting. This is a useful post because it may serve to call some attention to the actual message they are reluctant to publish on the first page of their website.
I hope I don't discourage anyone from posting with my comments except for a few exceptions like the bitcoin crowd for example.
dont sweat it my friend,
dont sweat it my friend, these are not thoughts ive not thought on my own already,
