Dogglebox: IPA tests adverts' effectiveness with dogs
Thursday, 11th December 2014 at 5:11pm
The IPA has devised a novel way of testing the effectiveness of Christmas 2014 adverts: Dogglebox.
Ellie, Paddy and Duffie, the IPA's canine testers, were exposed to a series of high profile television adverts. Their posture, eye position, yawns, barks and pants were scientifically analysed and measured to determine emotional engagement with the adverts.
Lorna Hawtin, Disruption Director at TBWA/Manchester said, "We looked quite hard for a segment that hadn't already seen a lot of adverts that are out there. We wanted to find a group of consumers that really reflected UK households."
The initial indicative test results showed that clips from John Lewis, Marks & Spencer and Sainsbury's had the greatest impact.

Kit Kat unveils fun new advert
Tuesday, 28th October 2014 at 9:51am
Kit Kat's new advert offers an interesting explanation for its new product by introducing the world's first 'splactor', or 'split actor'.
The spot follows 'Martin Mahogany' on a film set as he plays two characters at the same time, with each half of his body in different costume and makeup.
To achieve his ambitious performances, he physically turns around to switch character, delivering his lines with utmost seriousness.
As the world's first 'splactor', Martin is happy to take the credit for Kit Kat's new Chunky Double Caramel bar, which takes a similar approach with two contrasting fillings.

Curious about the newer model? Check out the 2015 Toyota Highlander
By KBB.com Editors
The first Highlander arrived in 2001 as Toyota's third car-based crossover SUV, following the compact RAV4 and the mid-size luxury Lexus RX 300. As the Toyota brand's more affordable version of the RX, it, like the RX, was built on the Camry sedan platform. And like its Lexus cousin, the Highlander has been very successful. Although its styling is far from distinctive, the Highlander offers its owners multiple benefits that include excellent ratings in the areas of safety, service and reliability, not to mention resale.
If a well-regarded mid-size crossover with an optional third row tops your wish list, you should take a good look at this one. It's feature-laden, neither too big nor too small and should prove reliable for many years.
For buyers with more specialized needs or wants, the Highlander's well-rounded personality might not be as appealing as the sporty character of the Mazda CX-9 or Ford Flex. Similarly, the Highlander can't match the higher towing capacity of the Ford Explorer or Nissan Pathfinder.
For 2010, Toyota adds more options to the base Highlander models. The base four-cylinder Highlander can now be equipped with a power sunroof, while the base V6 offers a rear backup camera.
Driving Impressions We drove one of our test Highlander Limited 4x4s in intermittent rain on alternating wet and dry asphalt and found it confidence-inspiring all the while. Even if it isn't as...fast as the V6 version of the RAV4, its little brother, the Highlander's 270-horsepower V6 is about as silky and powerful as you'll find in the category. Informal zero-to-60 miles-per-hour acceleration tests showed the Highlander to accelerate with sport sedan alacrity, while we noted fuel economy ranging between 16 and 20 miles per gallon. Except for its still difficult-to-access third row, the Highlander's seating was roomy and comfortable, and its ride, handling and braking excellent.
Center Stow Seat
This clever feature allows the second row of seats to be converted from three-across to two-across seating, opening a convenient pass-through area to access the third-row seats. The seat stows easily out of sight in the center console.
Hill-Start and Downhill Assist Control
If you live in rolling terrain, you'll appreciate these features that prevent the Highlander from rolling backward at a stop on steep up-grades and controls downhill speed (on non-hybrid four-wheel drive models) during slippery descents.
The new Highlander's spacious interior is at once conservative, functional and attractive. Nice touches include huge round knobs for the primary radio and climate controls – easy to find and operate even while wearing gloves – and plenty of convenient spots for things like drinks and cell phones. The steering wheel offers manual tilt and telescope adjustment and, on Limited models, easy-to-access audio and climate control buttons. The reclining second-row seats also slide 4.7 inches fore-aft and offer a lift-out middle seat cushion for pass-through into the rear row, while the bigger new third row can comfortably accommodate not only children but even limber adults, at least on shorter trips.Exterior
Styled in California, the 2010 Highlander design intentionally moves away from traditional SUV styling. Toyota says it makes a statement of strength instead of ruggedness, intelligence over toughness. We can tell you that it is an attractive vehicle that is designed more to blend into the automotive landscape than stand out from it. While it's definitely more curvaceous than the original Highlander, it offers a traditional SUV profile but is lower and more car-like, which makes sense based on its Camry roots. It is not as distinctive as the Hyundai Veracruz or the Buick Enclave crossovers, for instance, but it is handsome. Available 19-inch wheels help balance the more substantial look.
The base front-wheel-drive Highlander rolls on 17-inch alloy wheels and comes with halogen headlamps, AM/FM/CD MP3/WMA-capable six-speaker stereo, tilt/telescope steering wheel, interchangeable Center Stow seat and center console and an aerodynamic rear spoiler. The V6 trim adds a hideaway third-row seat. Standard safety features include seven airbags, stability control, traction control and anti-lock brakes with brake assist and electronic brake-force distribution. The Sport trim adds 19-inch wheels/tires, a back-up camera, leather-wrapped steering wheel, a six-CD changer and a 3.5-inch multifunction display. The top-of-the line Limited coddles its owners with full leather and woodgrain trim, power front seats, dual-zone climate control and a "smart" keyless entry and ignition system.
Options available on the base V6 Highlander include a two-row seating package that eliminates the standard third-row seat, rear backup camera, manual rear heating/air conditioning for the second and third rows, a cargo-area tonneau cover and a tow-prep package. Stepping up to a Sport or Limited brings a much broader spectrum of add-ons, most notably front dual-zone automatic climate control (standard on Limited), automatic rear air conditioning, multi-stage heated leather front seats, power moonroof, rear-seat entertainment system, power liftgate and a navigation system with premium audio, voice activation and Bluetooth phone connectivity. Four-wheel drive models are available in all V6 grades.
The 2010 Highlander base model is powered by a 2.7-liter four cylinder engine, while a larger V6 is optional on the base and standard on the Sport and Limited trims. The 2.7-liter is near the top of its class in the areas of fuel efficiency and power, with 187 horsepower on tap and upwards of 27 miles per gallon in highway driving. The Highlander V6 model packs a 270 horsepower 3.5-liter dual-variable-valve-timing V6 under its sculpted hood. The four-cylinder engine is mated to an all-new six-speed gearbox, while the V6 model makes due with an electronically controlled five-speed automatic transmission with selectable manual shift control.

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 4
"The same things that attracted me initially are what I continue to like about this 2013 4WD SE: Toyota reliability and "brand," powerful and very refined V6 (this engine is quiet and QUICK, best in class,) effective cold weather package and winter handling, compliant Camry-based ride, drive characteristics are great (in fact, the critics claim that it drifts too much in hwy driving is not accurate, it does fine in that regard--just my experience.) For a "heavy" 4wd veichle, this car is nimble and impressively quick for passing and getting out of trouble. Again, very strong engine is probably the car's best asset. Also, all the options work just as advertised. HOWEVER: interior fit and finish was subpar on this car, turns out 2013 was not good for Toyota overall in this regard. Too much cheap plastic up front. and so not surprisingly, several ANNOYING rattles quickly developed in the dash area (been in for it, fixed one big one but the others elude a solution.) Also an equally annoying wind noise rattle from somewhere in the rear at hwy speeds. No excuse for this in a $36,000 car. I HATE RATTLES!! Also, the leather seats always did look kind of cheap (definitely not "plush") and have not "broken in" as comfortable enough for extended driving, and the armrests and console are thinly padded and not placed well enough for either me or my wife. New car, and my wife has to use a cushion to compensate for the lack of seat comfort! If I had to, I could live with this car given its obvious strong points, but two years into a three-year lease, I'm looking to get out of it if I can without losing my shirt."

"Great people mover (although the third row is not great for an adult for any ride over 30 mins but is doable), powerful acceleration, good handling, pretty good in snow, super reliable and interior is made of high quality material that lasts. The vehicle is a nice split between a full size SUV and a mid-sized cross-over. Cons gas mileage stinks, Less than 15 mpg is common for around town and don't expect much over (in any) 20 on the highway. The cars Bluetooth is complicated to work and set up and the hands-free voice dialing is a joke. All in all, well worth it if your looking for a vehicle like this, Toyota reliability and resale value trump the few cons on this vehicle."

"I have had this vehicle 14 months now and it has been quiet a pleasure driving it. The power of the 3.5L v-6 is more than adequate and the mileage is better than advertised. I average 20-21 mixed street/highway and 24/27 on the highway if I keep my foot out of the fuel injection. (Used to be carburetor). I have the plus model which is equipped just right for me. The seat is very comfortable with good adjustments. The instrument panel has good visibility and adjustments are easy to make. Bluetooth is a very handy way to use the phone. The only irritant I have is the tire pressure monitoring system. Not terrible, just annoying. Overall, I am very pleased with this vehicle. It replaced a pick-up truck that I dearly loved but being an amputee of the left leg, getting in and out was becoming a problem. I definitely chose the correct replacement. A bit of excitement is back in my driving experience. I would get another highlander."

"I have owned several Toyota models over the years and have never been disappointed in any way. This Highlander is no exception. The ride is smooth. The reliability is just what you'd expect from a Toyota. What really impressed me about this model was it's handling in the snow. I currently also own a Landcruiser so my expectations are quite high when it comes to bad weather driving. No, it's not on par with the Landcruiser but it does quite well for what it is. No complaints. Awesome alternative to the minivan (traded in our 99 sienna with almost 200k (trouble free) miles on it for this)."

Take a look at this article to learn the best kids' bed styles for boys.
Twin Beds Checklist
Twin beds are a great way to utilize the sleeping space in any room. Once reserved solely for children's bedrooms, the size of a twin bed makes it ideal for use in small guest rooms, multipurpose rooms or college dorm rooms: anywhere a bed is needed but where space is limited. By making a checklist of the things you'll need, you can put together a twin bed that's as stylish and comfortable as any of its larger cousins. Take a look at this twin beds checklist to ensure you maximize your bed's potential.
Best Styles for Kids' Beds
In your children's room, kids' beds will quickly become the focal point. Considering your child will probably have their bed for years to come, don't just choose any old ratty bed you inherited. Kids' beds come in a variety of styles and sizes to choose from. And when it comes to kids' furniture, their bed will probably undergo the most use. Since your child will probably spend a huge amount of time sleeping in or playing on their bed, why not choose a kids' bed they'll be happy to have in their room over the course of many years. Before you make your decision, here are some of the best beds for kids for you to choose from.
How to Add Style to a Twin Mattress
You may not believe it, but your twin mattresses can be your biggest ally when redecorating a bedroom. Twin mattresses might seem exceptionally plain, but with a few additional design elements, they can be transformed into bold twin beds with style. As the smallest of the mattress sizes, twin mattresses remain versatile and can be used in many different rooms. Incorporate twin mattresses and beds into the bedrooms of children or young adults. Two twin beds can also be used for extra bedding in a guest bedroom. Don't forget that these mattresses come in both regular size and in an extra-long size for taller sleepers. Look below for additional tips on how to add style to a twin mattress.
FAQs about Queen Bed Dimensions
A queen bed suggests the feel of opulence and splendor in its very name. Developed as a roomy alternative to a standard full-size bed, queen beds provide more space for couples to sleep in comfort throughout the night.

Look below to find answers to some of the most frequently asked questions about queen bed dimensions.
How to Fold a Twin Blanket

It is important to fold a twin blanket as soon as the dryer completes its cycle. There will be fewer wrinkles, and the fresh scent will remain longer. Look below to learn how to fold a twin blanket.

Choosing a Nightstand for a Kid's Room
A big kid bed, nightlight and nightstand -- moving into a new room is exciting for kids, and having all the right bedroom furniture makes it even more fun. Choosing the perfect nightstand for your tyke is very different than choosing a nightstand for yourself, however. There are many things to take into consideration, such as size, safety and style. The following tips can help you find the right nightstand for your child's room.
Safety Tips for Children's Beds
Children's beds act as an empty canvas just waiting to realize its potential. To a child, a bed is not just a place for sleeping, but a place for secrets, toys, and make-believe. Kids' beds can become pirate ships or spaceships and change just as quickly into a covered wagon or castle. Their imagination knows no bounds, which can sometimes lead to accident-prone afternoons. The ever popular "Let's-pretend-the-bed-is-a-trampoline" game usually ends in tears. To keep your kids as safe as possible, make sure you follow these safety tips and make sure your children's beds meet the following safety guidelines.
Bed Size Fact Sheet
There are few things more inviting than your soft bed at the end of a long hard day. However, if your bed is not comfortable, then you may not be getting all the sleep you deserve. A good night's sleep can give you energy for your next day's activities and help you be more alert and attentive; on the other hand, you may become sluggish or irritable without enough sleep. If your lack of sleep is affecting your day-to-day activities, it might be time to upgrade your bed to a larger size or a higher quality. Below, you'll learn everything you need to know with a bed size fact sheet.

Hatching Chicks
See more activities in: Second Grade, Spring
Learn about nature while creating a nest for baby chicks. This project is a fun way to explore how to layer shapes and create texture. The nest, created from a paper plate, is layered with curled construction paper, mimicking the texture of a real bird's nest.
What You Need:
- Paper plate
- Tempera paint (brown)
- Paintbrush
- Scissors
- Construction paper
- Googly eyes (1 set for each chick)
- Glue stick
What You Do:
- Have your child cut a paper plate in half. Set one half aside for a future project.
- Encourage her to paint the plate with brown paint, covering it as much as possible. Set the wet plate aside to dry.
- Ask her to cut three oval shapes out of the construction paper, each one will be a different chick. Set the ovals to the side.
- Have her cut out three small triangles from yellow or orange construction paper to create beaks for the chicks.
- She can now glue the beaks and eyes on each chick.
- Glue the chicks from behind the cut line of the paper plate, so the majority of the oval bodies are over the edge of the plate.
- Help her cut long strips of brown construction paper, about 1/2" wide. Gently curl them with a pair of scissors. Have her glue them to the front of the plate to create texture for the nest.

Arms dealer Viktor Bout, blamed for arming Al Qaeda, receives 25 years in prison (+video)(Read article summary)
An angry Moscow has vowed to repatriate Russian arms merchant Viktor Bout, whom a US court convicted of conspiring to kill American citizens.
• A daily summary of global reports on security issues.
International weapons trafficker Viktor Bout of Russia was sentenced to 25 years in prison in a New York court yesterday, ending a four-year bid to bring to justice the man who is accused of arming Al Qaeda and the Taliban, among others.
Mr. Bout, nicknamed the "merchant of death," was taken into custody in 2008 in Bangkok, Thailand, in a US Drug Enforcement Agency sting in which agents pretended to be members of Colombia's rebel Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC). It took 2-1/2 years to extradite him to the US to stand trial, a process Russia considered to be a violation of international law.

Leading tomorrow's Sunday shows will be a variety of leaders who will focus
on the economy, prospects for the midterm elections, the state of
President Obama's agenda, and the war in Afghanistan in light of a
major leak of classified reports about its progress.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) will appear on ABC's "This Week" on the debut show of new anchor and former CNN international reporter Christiane Amanpour. The two will discuss Democrats' outlook for the midterm elections as they begin August recess, as well as whether the documents released by Wikieaks will sway the course of the war.
Former Alaska governor Sarah Palin (R) will appear on "Fox News Sunday," followed by Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell and House Minority Leader John Boehner. Palin will be asked about her political future. All three will weigh in on Republican prospects for the midterm elections, and comment on the notable events of Obama's week: his appearance on "The View," and his stops at high-profile Democratic fundraisers in New York.
Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Adm. Mike Mullen will be seen on both NBC's "Meet the Press" and CBS' "Face the Nation," talking about Wikileaks.
CBS will also feature Sen. Jon Kyl (R-Ariz.), while NBC will cover the economy with New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg (I), former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan and Pennsylvania governor Ed Rendell (D).
CNN's "State of the Union" will include Sen. Carl Levin (D-Mich.), who chairs the Armed Services Committee, along with Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.). Graham said during an appearance on Fox News on Friday that Wikileaks should be prosecuted for "undermining the war effort."

on 05/10/10 i was a guest at the motel 6 in evans colorado and was walking toward my room when a man who worked for the motel as maintenace aproached me with a very large bulldog.as he was aprochjng i asked him if his dog would bite and he replied that the dog wouldnt bite so i continued in my direction. when they were within a few feet of me i kinda paused and squated down so that i wouldnt seem like any kind of threat to the dog.when they got within the dogs leash distance
the dog londged at me and bit me on the throat.i went straight to my room so that i could look in the mirror to see how bad my injury was.i was bleeding quite a bit from puncture wounds that were left behind from the bite. blood began to soak my shirt and chest.at that time it occured to me that i had better ask the owners of the dog if it had all its shots.i went to the front desk and spoke with the manager who is the girl freind and co-owner of the dog.i informed her that i had been bitten by their dog and she told me that she thought it was best if i left the property and if i didnt that she would call police and have me removed. i told her to call an ambulance also.the police were called as was the ambulance and i was told by police that the owner who was on the property wanted me to leave.i was treated for my wounds at the greeley hospital.i have tried many times to speak with the owner and he has hung up on me.

Most likely was just a local deal that I was lucky to stumble into. But this afternoon I walked into Home Depot to get some simple green and heavy duty trash bags and respirators and I took a peek in the appliance aisle as I always do.
Magic Chef 7.2 cu ft Chest Freezer item # 539-355 (as seen in EdWort's sticky 'Sizing Your Chest Freezer') was on clearance for $195. Lists in the store at $225. Walked away with room for 6 kegs on tap after I build the collar (4 without the collar) for $211 plus tax, including warranty.
Not too shabby if you ask me, I had been planning on purchasing that next month but overspent a little today due to the $30ish savings.
... next month- perlicks and collar
****! I just bought one two months ago for full price.
**** mother ****ing **** **** !!!
With a collar, will four kegs and a six gallon better bottle fit in that model?
I am either going to get a 7.2 or 7.5cf when I get around to building my keezer.
I want room to do cold crashes, along with four kegs.
Best freezer ands down for the price. Good deal!
I love mine. I didn't build a collar. I keep 4 kegs with picnic taps inside, and my 5# tank and a dozen chilled mugs on the hump. (my garage is 100degrees half the year, and i don't like the sound of sticky faucetts)
I think I paid $210 new for mine at Home Cheapo plus $50 for the temp controller.
Nice price! I also bought mine a little bit ago at full price... so that pisses me off! I do love this freezer, and you can see my build in the signature.
Perfect freezer for a keezer!

On the spectrum of the Zhang-Zagier height
Abstract | References | Similar Articles | Additional Information
From recent work of Zhang and of Zagier, we know that their height is bounded away from 1 for every algebraic number different from . The study of the related spectrum is especially interesting, for it is linked to Lehmer's problem and to a conjecture of Bogomolov. After recalling some definitions, we show an improvement of the so-called Zhang-Zagier inequality. To achieve this, we need some algebraic numbers of small height. So, in the third section, we describe an algorithm able to find them, and we give an algebraic number with height discovered in this way. This search up to degree 64 suggests that the spectrum of may have a limit point less than 1.292. We prove this fact in the fourth part.

Be bubbly
From the minute you step on the bus, it's show time. We
don't want you to be fake, but being more outgoing than you usually are under
ordinary circumstances will help you meet new people. Hello, insta-friend!
Show 'n' tell
Pack a few things you can share with your cabin crew, like a
deck of cards or Uno, or something that's guaranteed to spark a conversation,
like the crazy lookin' stuffed animal you and your bestie stitched up during
the school year. Got munchies? Bring enough so ya can pass 'em around your
first night there.
Get curious
Wondering how a chica managed such a fab waterfall braid?
Dying to score one darlin's tips on building the ultimate popsicle stick
mansion? Don't hesitate—ask away! Your newfound friends will love that you
noticed and appreciated what they do, and they'll be happy to show you how.
Branch out
So you're awesome at beach volleyball—that's great. But just
'cause you're the superstar of the spike set doesn't mean you can't dabble in
other areas, too. Sign up for activities you've always wanted to try but
haven't, even if you think you might be truly terrible. Even if you start at
the bottom of the heap, you'll get better and better with practice…and we bet
you'll meet lotsa new buds along the way.
Put a smile on
No one wants to get chummy with a Debby Downer, so perk up
that pout, why don't ya?! Slapping a smile on your face, even if you're feelin'
a little homesick, will show strangers that you're approachable and friendly.
How's that for easy?
No camper left behind
Cliques at school are a major bummer, but leaving a chica in
the dust at camp? Now that's unforgivable. If you see one sweetie flyin' solo,
stride on over and see if she wants to buddy up. You've got nothing to lose…and
a new BFF to gain.
Laugh it off
Embarrassing moments happen, hun, so don't sweat it. Pick
yourself up, take a bow and move on—but don't forget to yuk it up. After all,
everyone loves a lady who can laugh at herself.

My husband is wonderful !
He decided to build me my second 4 X 16 raised bed before planting time this spring!
Our fall delivered load of compost / dirt has finally thawed and there is not only enough to fill the one we built in the fall, there seems to be enough left over to fill the second (shorter) one we planned for the future!
Now I will have a tall bed for my short crops and a short bed for my tall crops! I should be able to fit in all the items I want without overcrowding or leaving anything out!
(Now to rearrange my plantings on paper!!!!)
Mine too. He expanded my beds by another 48 SF. I printed off 4"x4" grids with 16 sf each. They are about an inch square on paper. Since I can't keep myself to one plan, I wrote the names of plants on small post-it notes and just stick them in the squares. Then when I move something, I just have to switch the post-its around. I can make notes at the bottom of the page, like dates or tips.
Ah, I use the post-it note planning too. It makes it easy to rearrange things. I'm now on my 4th or 5th version of this year's beds. If you make the post-it squares 1"x1" and scale that to 1'x1' bed square it is easy to see what you have room for. Also, if you do succession planting just put the second planting post it underneath. you can lift up the top one to see what to plant after harvesting. The next best thing to planting your beds is planning them.
Momstar - I also plan succession planting by putting the post-its underneath. I think my squares are a bit bigger than an inch. I usually have to cut the ends off the small ones but not the bottoms.
If you really want to be crazy, I also do this with clothing for travel plans.
