Any child beyond age 6 or 7 who
continues to
wet the bed may need to be evaluated by a doctor. The
evaluation should include a
medical history and a
physical exam are also part of a medical evaluation of
bed-wetting. If you are having your child evaluated for bed-wetting, for a week
or two before your visit, keep a diary that lists when wettings occur and how
much urine is released.
In some cases, further testing may be
needed. Tests may include:
If a child has uncontrollable wetting both at night and in
the day, other tests may need to be done.

Should Teachers Ignore Poverty's Impact?
Owens described her effort to join the Philadelphia Teaching Fellows program, and her reaction to the prevailing view in that organization that good teachers should be able to raise the achievement of even the poorest kids. That is my belief, and the belief of the educators I most admire. But most Americans, including Owens, think people like me are wrongly discounting the effects of poverty and thus hurting, rather than helping, the national movement to ...

'Jersey Shore' finale: Our 10 'Oh, ye-ah' moments
The "Jersey Shore" crew moved out of their summerhouse for the second time a bit bruised, somewhat more single and having held on to the same amount of cast members that entered the house in the first place.
It was an hour of fights, tears, hook ups and fist pumps - which is basically what we expect from the crew. By the end, the crew was all good - except for the on-again-off-again antics of Sammi "Sweetheart" Giancola and Ronnie Magro.
Here's our take on the finale in 10 "Oh, ye-ah" moments:
1.) Sammi gets caught (Round 1) - Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino once again proved why he should be known as "The Instigation." He gets in Sammi and Ronnie's business by calling Arvin, the guy who said Sammi invited him to The Shore to hook up. He proceeded to sell her out by telling the guys that they had made out before. Sammi initially denies it, but later she comes clean. It happened like three years ago? That guy is a lose-ah.
2.) Ronnie sleeps through work - Last day of work at the Shore Store and Ronnie, who couldn't be more d-baggy this season, sleeps through his four hour shift? He could have at least had the decency to sleep in the back instead of right there in the open on the back counter. Yo, have some couth.
3.) JWOWW's dad at the BBQ - We have no idea how Jenni "JWOWW" Farley could be related to, let alone the daughter of, the guy she introduced as her father. He looked like he stepped out of a "Miami Vice" convention. Weird science!
4.) Deena grinds on Uncle Nino - Vinny Guadagnino's Uncle Nino is back! The "O.G., original guido" came over for a goodbye BBQ and got right back to where he left off. And Deena Cortese gave him a little bump and grind to remember her by. Oh, ye-ah! And yuck.
5.) Ange-Deena - Vinny was trying to hook up with Deena's best friend who came by for the BBQ and she wasn't havin' it. He didn't appreciate that she was c**k- blocking him, so later he called her the worst insult in the house -- worse than trash bag, grenade or hippo. He called her "Angelina"! That was low, Vin.
6.) Sammi vs. "The Instigation" (Round 2) - After Mike got all up in their business, Sammi turned on the flirty eyes and girly voice and told Ronnie that she couldn't be with him if Mike was his boy. Ronnie told her Mike didn't do anything wrong, since he was right about Sammi's three-year-old hookup and she lied about it. Boom! That starts Round 2 between the two until later when Mike apologizes for butting in.
7.) Cuca-cartwheels - That's pretty self-explanatory. Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi broke out some cartwheels in the living room, but her "cuca" wanted to come out and play, too. So, what does she do? She goes over to the mirror to see if it really was showing. And boy was it!
8.) Roger locks it down - Never fall in love at The Shore? Well, Ronnie and Sammi never respected the rule, so why should JWOWW? Roger turned out to be more than just a rebound from her last boyfriend and not just a summer fling. So, he asked Jenni if they could be exclusive. Aw. Go ahead get your juicehead gorilla, JWOWW!
9.) Snooki makes a grilled cheese for royalty - What does a guidette have to do when she's "DTF," but her man is hungry? Make him a pre-smush grilled cheese sandwich, right? But this guido was very particular about his sandwich, so Snooks referred to him as "Princess Diana"! Live that down, dude.
10.) Sammi picks bros before her guido (Round 3) - Things seemed fine between Sammi and Ronnie when they left for the crew's last night of partying. Wait, nope. Sammi spent too much time hanging out with her guy friends and Ronnie's ego just couldn't take it. Even when she called him over to them, he wouldn't come. In the end, he left her walking home drunk and alone. It was the last straw, yo. The two broke up and left the house... separately.
To be continued... in Italy!
What did you think of the finale? Did you cry? More or less than Ronnie?

But many believe Richards' greatest contribution in turning around a losing team was a wild spending spree he undertook after being handed the keys to the franchise in September 1954.
Richards wasted piles of money on prospects who failed to blossom, but he also "opened the keys to the cash box, which had to happen if we were ever going to compete," said Joe Hamper, an accountant who joined the Orioles' front office in 1954 and stayed for 37 years, retiring as chief financial officer.
The franchise had been a dispirited, penny-pinching loser in St. Louis and was on its way to losing 100 games in its first season in Baltimore when Richards was hired in a dual role, replacing Jimmy Dykes as manager and Arthur Ehlers as general manager.
"We had operated very conservatively that ['54] season," Hamper said. "The mind-set was clubs like the Yankees and Red Sox had the big bucks, and we were not in that category."
The Orioles owners and club president Clarence Miles were neophytes who had pledged to spend "whatever it takes" to win, but they didn't know where or how much to invest.
Richards showed them. As the major leagues' first manager/GM since John McGraw, who ran the New York Giants from 1902 to 1932, he took liberal advantage of his unchecked authority to deal and spend.
"Overnight, we went from a conservative organization to a very aggressive and, in some respects, reckless organization," Hamper said. "It was a complete change in philosophy and a nightmare for those of us on the financial side, but the end result was the mentality that we were competitive and weren't going to back off."
Richards was a tall Texan who had batted .227 over parts of eight seasons as a backup catcher in the majors. He had then won as a minor league manager in Atlanta and Buffalo and turned the losing Chicago White Sox into contenders.
Conservative in speech and manner, he was a managerial progressive, an original thinker. Twice in Chicago, he had shifted a starting pitcher to the outfield and brought in a reliever, then returned the starter to the mound after the reliever faced one batter. In Buffalo, he had once walked a pitcher four times to keep a fleet leadoff hitter from running wild on the bases.
Nicknamed "the Wizard of Waxahachie," a reference to his hometown, Richards could teach the fundamentals of any aspect of the game, especially pitching. He revived the careers of numerous veterans by teaching them a slider he called a "slip pitch."
Soon after getting his first chance to run an organization, Richards demonstrated his progressive flair.
In November 1954, he made a trade with the Yankees involving 17 players, still the largest in baseball history. (An 18th player to be named was not documented.) The next season, Richards went through players like cards in a deck, the turnover so constant that, when asked to assess his pitching staff in July, he replied, "Do you mean the one coming or going?"
In 1956, he proposed swapping entire 25-man rosters with the Kansas City Athletics, backing off only after the A's asked to take Roger Maris and Clete Boyer out of the deal.
But in signing young players, he was really creative.
"He just came in and completely bamboozled the owners," said former Orioles GM Harry Dalton, who joined the front office as assistant scouting director in 1954.
Many of Richards' early signings were failures. Bruce Swango, a high school pitcher from rural Oklahoma, didn't own a pair of baseball spikes when he signed in 1955 and couldn't perform in front of crowds. The Orioles gave him a $36,000 bonus and released him nine weeks later.

Awesome Avatar, Mama Cat!!
AHH yes I do! As far as drama over there goes, really dont' care. I wrote BC and asked he remove all my threads, topics and posts, as I have much more things to do that delete ,delete, delete from my inbox. I hope he can still do that......or I will have to get highter ups to remove them for me..........in any event, talk to ya later, have a GREAT day! I hope your mom is doing GREAT as well!
Yep, it was a sad thing to remove, but, I couldn't get it off fast enough. Yes, we will be friends, and I will stay friends with most of the people over there, and that is A-OK by me! I will always be Hammer to the people who knew me best over there, and for the others who didn't, oh well........what does FL mean about Luke, that just flew over the top of my head......hahahha.. So funny tho, I haven't heard a peep from the friends I really liked over there.........and if that is the way it will be, that too is satisfactory. Like the saying goes, you dont' know who your friends are till s.... hits the fan. :P
Heya Cat! Hoping all is well with you and yours. Yea, I left the AWB group, fed up with it.........so many people I really care for, a few I question why they were even in there in the first place. In any event, I only removed two of the people that were problematic on my friends list, were "friends" with them only because of the group, such a relief now that it's not forced..........and I so hope Turtle(always BC to me) is feeling better......he is by far one of the best people I know on here........., as well as yourself. Talk soon, stay in touch! :-)
Nooooo I put whut it was.. ya don't read??? Bronchitis caused by da flu..he said he didn't care if swine.. flu is flu..

Liverpool twice came back from behind against 10-man Wigan to claim a remarkable 3-2 victory at Anfield.
Two first-half goals from Egyptian striker Amr Zaki - the second an acrobatic volley at the Kop end - put Wigan ahead at the break, Dirk Kuyt's goal keeping Liverpool in the game.
In the second period Wigan had Antonio Valencia sent off and after Albert Riera equalised for the hosts, Kuyt's second clinched all three points.

Pyrolytic dehydrochlorination of the electrical cable insulation Hypalon was studied as a function of time and temperature. The chlorine evolution was determined separately by means of on-line activity measurements and by neutron activation analysis in the temperature range 200°C to 300°C, with one test conducted at 500°C. The object of the research was to determine the chlorine release and the chlorine release fraction as a function of temperature. The data obtained were needed to formulate conclusions regarding the release mechanisms of chlorine. Estimates of the amount of hydrochloric acid released to the containment building in a severe reactor accident were also calculated. It can be concluded that the amount of chlorine release from the Hypalon cable is significant and will have an effect on iodine behavior in a severe accident.

You meet her at the dealers for a test ride with a nervous smile, anxious inside, you wheel her gently down the road. Not too fast though, the smile instant as you hear the burbling soundtrack coming from her high exhausts.
You hit the highway and the smile widens into a dumb grin which gets wider as the revs get higher. You feel like you've never felt about a motorcycle before, is it love?
You go home kicking your heels together thinking of nothing else, only to ride her again. You meet a second time, this time you make a commitment to her you're going to take her home and treat her right, lavish her with gifts and jewellery.
Bags, new rubber shoes for special occasions, bashplate, crashbars, headlight grill and carbon all to protect her. Automatic oiler to keep the drive chain smooth, HID lights so she can see better in the dark, Akros so she can speak louder, Satnav so she can find her way around better, heated grips to keep the cold at bay and finally a new facet pump to keep her alive.
You take her to exotic places in far away lands, you spend so much time together riding on foreign tarmac, you take pictures of you both together; in mountains, through rivers, along gravel roads, through thick mud. She carries you along, safe and sound loaded with all your belongings and she returns you home in good health.
You service her with care, change her filters, her oils, replace her worn brake pads and lavish her with soap and scrub her clean before polishing her to make her sparkle.
Somebody steals her from you, you hope, you pray, you cry, you lose, you mourn.
Then you go and buy another one without so much as sitting on her, it's not the same, but the affair will grow for sure and you begin the love affair all over again.

Release Date: 2010 |
Jared Ponton STAFF (4.5)Letlive bring a post-hardcore album fit for many of 2010's best-of lists...Mark Campbell (4)You know the other side of your pillow? This is cooler than that....Sam Feldman's Rating (4.5)Fake History surprisingly sits close to the top of my albums of an already surprising year...NothingForSomething (5)Letlive. reminds us of the roots of post-hardcore whilst having a modern flare and catchin...
Live (4.5)Letlive create something worthy of a spot in every post-hardcore lover's library....syncopation081 (4.5)Apart from simply perfecting the dichotomous song-structure of traditional hardcore, Letli...yidnarc (1.5)This is overrated post hardcore at its worst. Are you sure there good??...
Album Rating: 4.5This is my first review, so any constructive criticism is appreciated. Hell, be brutal if you need to.
I don't mean to overshadow anybody else who wrote a review of this album (they were both great), but I know this album backwards and forwards, and have wanted to write a review for a long time now.
Album Rating: 4.5These guys need the Best New Music sticker.
Album Rating: 4.5For realz. I've listened to it non-stop for about 10 hours a day at work for about three weeks now.
Album Rating: 4.5WTPOC is my favorite. Overall.
Was the review good?
Album Rating: 4.5Shweet. : D
Album Rating: 5.0yeah great album, Ive been fapping over it for months. good review, and if I hadn't heard it already, it would convince me to try it out , so I guess thats a win!
Album Rating: 4.5Thanks! I'm just afraid I'll overplay this thing and hate it weeks from now. : /
LOL and you rated Dillinger 1.5
Album Rating: 4.5I did. There's nothing creative there for me.
you're joking right? there's absolutely not one piece of creativity in that whole entire album? nothing. not a single thing that made you go oh wow this is new for metalcore? but this... THIS album which is essentially "Worship and Tribute" is creative?
**not taking anything away from this album.
Album Rating: 4.5Right. That whole album made me say "When is this going to end?" but this album made me want more immediately.
It's called an opinion, and varied taste. Just because it doesn't match yours doesn't mean you have the right to criticize it.
except when you say
There's nothing creative there
Album Rating: 4.5FOR ME. It's all stuff I've heard before, rehashed with terrible vocals and boring guitar tones.
Album Rating: 4.5This album sounds absolutely nothing like Worship and Tribute. Aside from the vocals, which are crazy and amazing, like Palumbo's.
Album Rating: 4.5He's just mad because I'm apparently the only person on the planet who hates DEP.
Album Rating: 4.0Yeah, this album is sounds absolutely nothing like Worship and Tribute. The only relation is the vocalist's style as compared to Palumbo's, and the fact that its also post-hardcore.
The tone, theme, and instrumentation is entirely different.
Album Rating: 4.5Check out The Messenger's "Let's Get Dangerous." It's KINDA like this album. The vocals are way out there, and the guitar hooks are great.
Listen to "Sex and John Candy" if you do.
sounds more like EYEWTKAS to me but whatever. glassjaw is glassjaw and this album owns
Album Rating: 4.5Album is sooooooo good.
Full paid justice, holiday truths, it's all for you
You will pay for what they do, it's all for you
gets stuck in my head all the time.
Album Rating: 4.5I know!
The lyrics are so good, too. Despite seeming shallow, a bit of thought unveils their motif. : D

DNC member okay with delegate split
Mitch E. Perry
WMNF Drive-Time News Thursday | Listen to this entire show:
In less than 48 hours, the Democratic National Committeeâs Rules and Bylaws Committee meets to decide what to do with the delegates in Florida and Michigan.
Sen. Bill Nelson is scheduled to make a presentation shortly after 9:30 a.m., representing the Florida Democratic party. Heâll be followed by Florida DNC member Jon Ausman and Tampa Sen. Arthenia Joyner, representing the Clinton campaign. It is not known at this time who will represent the Obama campaign.
ABC News reports that many of the members on the panel say Hillary Clinton will not get what she wants, full restoration of the delegates.
Committee co-chair James Roosevelt says the Clinton camp would have to persuade the Rules and By-Laws Committee that there was no violation of the rules. "I havenât seen anything to support that," he says.
Clinton supporters are expected to pack the hotel room where Saturdayâs meeting will take place, with demonstrators outside as well.
The Atlantic Magazineâs Marc Ambinder blogs on the magazineâs website that some Clinton campaign surrogates have been quietly encouraging vocal protests at the meeting. He writes that "this will almost certainly backfire and wind up steeling the committeeâs spine."
Tallahassee DNC member Jon Ausman will be speaking Saturday. Speculation has surfaced in the past few days that splitting Floridaâs 211 delegates in half will probably be the remedy. Ausman says heâs okay with that remedy.
Ausman filed a delegate challenge with the Rules and Bylaws Committee months ago. Part of his challenge is that under its rules, the DNC should have reduced but not eliminated the delegation because that penalty is reserved for other violations.comments powered by Disqus
CommentsHalf for Dem. Half for Rep.
I'm going to split my vote also primary to Dem. & general to Rep.! Yes I can live with this, but can all of you & the DNC!
Punishing the wrong people!
If a teacher doesn't follow school policy, you don't punish all the students, you punish the teacher! The DNC is punishing the wrong people!

Michigan resident John Burri was pleased to spend $12.95 at Flags Unlimited in Grand Rapids to buy a New Jersey flag — just so he could burn it.
Burri called it the best money he ever spent. His move was not illegal.
"The U.S. Supreme Court decided in a few cases that the burning of the flag of the United States is considered constitutionally protected speech, so those decisions apply to the burning of a flag of any state," said Larry Dubin, a law professor in Detroit, according to the Detroit News.
Burri's son, Eric, died in 2005 while on duty in Iraq. Flags were lowered for one day in his honor.
"I didn't do this to offend the people of New Jersey," Burri said. "If you're offended, I'm sorry. I did this to show the governor of New Jersey how wrong this was." According to Gothamist, Burri added, " It's a watering down of what it means to be a hero."
New Jersey Governor Chris Christie's executive order didn't receive complete agreement in his own state. The flag lowering was not followed by Wayne Township. According to The Times of India, Mayor Christopher P. Vergano said, "I have received 13 emails in favor of not lowering the flags and one opposed to my decision. My personal feeling is that the flag should only be lowered as an honor for military personal and fallen police officers."
The Wayne Township Policemen's Benevolent Association, Local 136 were one local group that disputed the flag lowering.
Houston was born in Newark and raised in East Orange, according to NBC 10 Philadelphia. Christie called the late singer a "cultural icon" who belongs in New Jersey music history with Frank Sinatra, Count Basie and Bruce Springsteen. "Her accomplishments were a great source of pride for the people of the state," said Christie. "I think she's entitled to have that recognition made for her."

Preferential voting may be used in the selection of judges.
In case of a tie vote on any matter brought before the Club membership, the Robert Rules of Order shall prevail, except that in the event the tie occurs in the vote for an Officer, Delegate or governor at the annual meeting, the counting of the votes will be performed by two individuals who will be appointed as inspectors of election by the President at the meeting at which the results of the first balloting were announced.
Either or both of the newly appointed inspectors of election may but need not have been members of the previous inspectors of election panel.

Sec. 3 Board hearing:
The Board of Governors or Committee shall have complete authority to decide whether counsel may attend the hearing, but both complainant and defendant shall be treated uniformly in that regard. Should the charges be sustained after hearing all the evidence and testimony presented by complainant and defendant, the Board or Committee may, by a majority vote of those present, suspend the defendant from all privileges of the Club for not more than six (6) months from the date of the hearing, or until the next annual meeting if that will occur after six (6) months. And, if it deems that punishment insufficient, it may also recommend to the membership that the penalty be expulsion. In such case, the suspension shall not restrict the defendant's right to appear before his fellow members at the ensuing Club meeting which considers the recommendation of the Board or Committee. Immediately after the Board or Committee has reached a decision, its finding shall be put in written form and filed with the Secretary. The Secretary, in turn, shall notify each of the parties of the decision and penalty, if any.

C4 Fuel Sending Unit Repair
Q: My '90 Corvette fuel gauge will display a full tank of gas until the tank is a little less than half empty. Then the gauge appears to read correctly until it is time to fill the tank again. I'm concerned that the gauge may stop reading properly at all and I don't want to run the vehicle out of fuel. I only drive it on nice weekends and sometimes I don't remember exactly how much fuel was left in the car from week to week. Do you think this is a gauge or wiring problem? Thanks.
Mike P.
via question at a Corvette seminar
A: Mike, as we discussed at the seminar, the most common cause for this problem on older vehicles is the fuel-tank sending unit has an internal fault. This is generally caused by certain types of gasoline that can cause deposits to build up on the fuel-sending-unit potentiometer (variably resistor). This can cause the fuel gauge to be erratic or even non-functional. Remember fuels have changed tremendously over the last few years and some components on older vehicles were not designed with today's blends of fuels in mind.
To repair this problem, the fuel-sending unit will need to be removed from the fuel tank. After removal, the resistor and wiper can be accessed by bending back three small metal tabs and removing the cover.
Upon visual inspection you will notice that the small metal wiper slides up and down across a resistor. If you observe wear marks or a buildup of gray residue on the resistor, take some fine Scotch-Brite (or its equivalent) and gently clean the face of the resistor assembly and the face of the wiper contact. Take care not to damage any of the components during cleaning.
Also inspect for broken wires on the resistor, weak resistor-spring tension, or a fuel float that has become heavy due to fuel saturation.
After performing the repair you can check your work with a Digital Volt Ohm Meter (DVOM). With the float resting at the bottom of its travel, you should get a low resistance. Slowly raise the float toward the top of its travel. You should get a steady increase in resistance with no flat spots. Flat spots are locations where the resistance drops to zero momentarily. Once the reading is steady with no flat spots, the repair is complete.
Mike, sometimes these fuel-sending units cannot be repaired and will need to be replaced. Some of them, such as the one in my C4 ZR-1, can be very expensive, so if you can repair it and save a little bit of money, I am all for it. Good luck.

Bellshare has updated their popular BeMaps 10 Pro Google Maps client for BlackBerry 10 to v1.1. The new version brings basic overall improvements all around the interface and usability updates. The app itself and maps also load quicker. Either way it is definitely a recommended app for $3.99 in BlackBerry World just for the transit directions. Hopefully Google gets over themselves and brings Google Maps natively to BlackBerry 10.

When Kabaka Ronald Muwenda Mutebi II visited Bukoto South MP Mathias Nsubuga Birekeraawo's home in Manja, Lwengo district, last October, many thought he was congratulating the MP on his electoral victory.
The Kabaka's visit was a last-minute fixture on the cultural monarch's tour of Buddu county, ahead of the Youth Day celebrations at Masaka Liberation square on October 20. The organisers had arranged for the Kabaka to have lunch at the Garden Courts hotel in Masaka, only to be informed a day to the event that he would instead have lunch at Nsubuga's home.
Nsubuga is reported to have learnt of the development from Buganda's minister of state for Youth and Employment, Noah Kiyimba, but couldn't fathom why the Kabaka was visiting. Prince David Kintu Wasajja, who rarely travels with his brother, was this time part of the entourage. Unknown to the host, the prince's eye was firmly fixed on his daughter, Marion Elizabeth Nankya Nsubuga.
"I started hearing rumours three days after the Kabaka's visit but I didn't take them seriously," Nsubuga told The Observer.
Two weeks later, the prince formally wrote to Nsubuga, through Nankya's Ssenga (paternal aunt) in accordance with Buganda's culture, requesting for a formal visit (kukyala), the first step towards a Kiganda traditional marriage.
"I was extremely excited, but I still couldn't believe it until the prince and his entourage finally made it here [on November 18]," Nsubuga said.
"It's an honour and a blessing to us [the family] because Prince Wasajja is not an ordinary prince, but one who can even ascend to the throne. So, it's not just about marrying off my daughter but a service to my kingdom," he added.
Prince Wasajja's formal introduction (okwanjula) is scheduled for December 22 at Nsubuga's newly acquired posh house at Nalumunye, near Mutundwe hill, in Kampala. Although the MP had planned to hold the function in his Bukoto South constituency, kingdom officials convinced him to relocate the venue to Kampala for security reasons.
A source privy to the preparations told us that the kingdom was concerned that the central government may not look favourably on the wedding as Wassajja would be marrying the daughter of an opposition leader. However, Nsubuga insisted that the main concern was for the royal family having to travel over 150km to Manja during a festive season, known for many cases of road accidents.
While this is bad news for Nsubuga's constituents, who were gearing up for the function, the Katikkiro is understood to have prevailed over the MP by explaining that kwanjula is a private, not a public event. However, 600 guests have been invited. The Kabaka, according to cultural norms, will not attend this function.
"Government will be represented by the Vice President [Edward Kiwanuka Ssekandi]. I have also invited the Speaker of Parliament, judges and MPs, among other government officials," Nsubuga revealed.
The invitation list also has a host of DP and other opposition leaders, as well as some friends and business partners. Dispensing with common procedure, the royal wedding will take place at Lubaga cathedral on April 27, 2013, as Nsubuga is catholic while the royal family comes from an Anglican lineage. Just like the Kabaka did when he got married, the Wassajjas will hold their reception at Mengo palace.
It is a year of big rewards for Nsubuga, who won a court case challenging the election of former Bukoto South MP, Hajji Muyanja Mbabaali, and went on to win the by-election. His elder daughter, Josephine Nalwoga Nsubuga, recently introduced her French fiancé and their wedding is due on March 30, 2013 in London, three weeks before the royal wedding.

Crowdsourcing: Online Video

Thanks to @blakerutherford for pointing me to this. Yesterday, I wrote about brand-sponsored music done right. Today's example is film. Spike Jonez, of Where the Wild Things Are fame, has released a short film (30 minutes) titled I'm Here that was paid for by Absolut Vodka. Although the brand has no representation or product placement within the film, the Absolut brand has prominence on the website where the film can be watched online and had 230,000 unique visitors just last weekend. While it may be difficult to understand why a brand would make this kind of investment, with the historical success of Spike Jonez Absolut could feel that not only would the investment generate a creative and profound product, but that people would seek it out. And ultimately, Absolut endears themselves to consumers with support of arts like this film. It is brand-sponsored film done right.
Here is the trailer:
This video is way cool, but did you notice the State Farm sponsorship? OK Go is a band mostly known for their videos (remember the one with the treadmills?), and I had the opportunity to sit in on a panel session at South by Southwest (SXSW) where Damian Kulash of OK Go talked about the making of this newest video and working with State Farm.
The band's record label didn't have enough money to pay for the video, so OK Go reached out to State Farm. Kulash talked about this being scary for them because the band did not want to be in the business of making advertising. But, he said that State Farm was surprisingly hands-off and understood that they are not content creators. When they first formed the relationship, State Farm requested that the video be available only on the State Farm website for the initial launch. OK Go, a band that understands the power of the internet, refused to do this: there is no sense in trying to control where people go on the internet as they will always find a way around the limitations you put on them. Ultimately, State Farm agreed and the video was posted everywhere. To give State Farm their money's worth, the brand as made part of the story, with no attempt to hide the relationship (remember, the internet is about transparency). And, the video is so interesting that people watch four or five times. State Farm managed to relinquish control, introduce and endear themselves to a whole new set of consumers, and come out unscathed. There are even positive comments on YouTube about the brand and the sponsorship.
This is a good lesson for brands looking to expand their audience base in new and interesting ways. To tap into consumers beyond the brand's existing reach, sometimes it is necessary to play by the rules of those consumers. Attempting to force corporate rules on potential new consumers can have disastrous effects (see Nestle's Facebook meltdown).
Interesting facts about the development of the video:

Allow me to step away from advertising, social media and technology for a moment today and honor Navy SEAL Adam Lee Brown, an Arkansas native, who died in Afghanistan just a few days ago. He was serving with my brother, also a Navy SEAL. From my brother:
"I've known him since 1999 while we were going through BUD/S together. He was a good friend and probably the most religious, moral man I knew in the teams. Huge loss for us and I just wanted you guys to take a minute and give a toast to him. He left
behind his wife and two kids.
"Adam considered Arkansas to be the center of the world and will be buried there…We are making a memorial patch with a Razorback on it…"
Senator Lincoln's statement is here. And information is also on the Navy SEALs blog here.
As a way to discern trends from the SXSW sessions attended, I created a Wordle graph using the daily recaps. Check it out.
This was the last day of the South by Southwest (SXSW) interactive festival in Austin. The conference lasted five days and was been jam-packed with educational sessions about emerging technology. It was long, fun, exhausting, engaging, informative, crowded and worth every minute.
According to reports, the interactive portion of the festival outsold both the film and music portions. There were 12,000 interactive badge holders this year. For those that have been attending SXSW for several years, this number was almost too much to handle: they complained about the mass and accompanying lack of intimacy among the group. This being my first year, I was in awe of event and appreciated everything it had to offer. Maybe they are right and SXSW interactive has jumped the shark, making it less valuable than before, but that was not my experience.
The last day offered approximately 140 sessions, of which I attended the following:
"LBS 101: Geolocation on the 'Horizon'" was a continuation of the location theme that was prevalent throughout the conference. This particular session focused more the technology aspect of the services rather than the user aspect. To emphasize the demand and opportunity for location-based services (LBS), the presenter started with the statistic that approximately 55% of all text/SMS messages sent are some variation of "where are you?". That equates to almost 650 billion location-based service text messages in 2009. To further demonstrate the potential, the presenter revealed that of the 200 million mobile subscribers in the United States, 18.5% are smart phones with built-in technology for geo-location. However, for most of the market, downloading an app for updating location status is a barrier to entry. The benefit of using a location-based service will need to be pretty great to jump that hurdle with the mass-market user.
Today, location-based services are being used for navigation, family location (if on a shared mobile service plan) and friend finding through social media applications. The future of location-based services could include notification when friends are nearby, location aware advertising, location aware marketing/couponing, crowdsourcing traffic systems and fraud prevention. The technology already exists today for location-based advertising, but it is not being implemented. Just last week, Starbucks announced a partnership with FourSquare to award a barista badge to frequent visitors, but won't be sending coupons or promotions through the service just yet. An example provided in the session for how location-based advertising/marketing could be used: the Starbucks on a corner in Austin is having a slow day so they push out a coupon for everyone within 25 meters for 50% off to bring in customers. Based on the amount of conversation at SXSW this year, it is safe to assume that we will see location-based services increasing in use over the next two years, both among business and consumers.
"Social Business" was a panel presentation from three communications people (marketing, PR, customer service) talking about how social media has impacted them. The panelists included David Meerman Scott and Captain Nathan Broshear of the Air Force. David Meerman Scott, a professional marketing and leadership speaker, as well as author, started the session. Scott presented many quotable one liners for this captive audience: speak to buyers in their language, not yours; create triggers that encourage people to share; the most overused terms in press releases include "innovate," "unique," "pleased to" and "leading provider"; lose control of your brand. Although his presentation style was engaging and entertaining, the content was pretty generic.
Captain Nathan Broshear is Director of Public Affairs for the Air Force. He talked about how the armed forces can use social media with every airman acting as a spokesperson using his iPhone and Flip cam as tools. The Air Force now allows members to post content to Facebook, YouTube and Twitter, knowing that this assists in spreading the message about their work efforts and can help with recruiting. The embracing of social media has resulted in media calls to the Air Force to expand on intriguing stories, rather than the Air Force having to reach out to the media to "sell" their stories. As a result, the Air Force claims to have not issued a news release in eight years. The Air Force is using social media is used to humanize the organization.
Tuesday's keynote presentation was an interview with Daniel Ek, CEO and founder of online music service Spotify. It was a nice transition from the interactive portion to the music portion of the SXSW festival. Spotify is a music sharing site that is not yet available in the United States. The site and service allows users to build playlists, access them from anywhere (mobile or online) and share them with friends. Because most in the audience was unfamiliar with the service, Ek did a demonstration and overview of how Spotify works both online and through a mobile app. Ek's stated the Spotify goal as wanting "to make music like water" in its availability. He talked about the social nature of music and our human desire to share it with others.
"Interactive Infographics" was a session for designers to understand the impact of presenting data as interesting graphics. The panelists include designers from the New York Times and GOOD magazine, as well as a representative from Processing.org and Stamen Design. The majority of the session was spent showcasing the work of the four panelists as examples of the possibilities.
There was a lot to take in over the five days of SXSW. As we digest the information and figure out how it applies to our businesses, it will be interesting to see if and/or how the predictions hold true.

If you were to ask me the outcome of the second international in Cardiff, I would give a slightly non-traditional answer. The scoreboard will tell you that India beat England by 133 runs on D/L method. But my take on the game is that Jon Shecket and cricket won on Wednesday. As a tag team. And they won almost as soon as the first ball was bowled.
Cricket you know, of course. But Jon Shecket who?
Well, Shecket is someone who hadn't heard of cricket till he was 15, but in whose life (in the most crucial moments) the game ended up playing a monumental role. The sport was by his hospital bedside when he fought Acute Myeloid Leukemia a decade-and-a-half later.
I met Shecket a day before the Cardiff one-dayer. It was as a chance meeting. Having arrived at the capital of Wales on Tuesday, I took a bus to my accommodation. There he was, wearing a baseball cap, with his 31-year-old large frame practically occupying one-and-a-half seats in the front row. He was grumbling rather noisily about the weather in Bristol in a gruff, discernable American accent to other soft-spoken Brits. I spotted a BBC Sport lanyard around his neck, put two and two together, and asked, "Are you here for the cricket?"
"Yes," he replied. I had suspected he was one of the production crew members for the broadcaster and asked him as much, but he answered in the negative and announced: "I am perhaps cricket's only American fan."
Despite the hyperbole — which is not a hyperbole by much if you really think of it — my curiosity was heightened. I got up from my seat and planted myself next to him. On that remaining half-a-seat. He was more than willing to talk. As it turned out we were heading to the same block, same street, and actually the same house.
He started narrating his story. "It all started when I was 15. I was always a soccer fan, and a Columbus Crew supporter. Around that time I was getting interested in English soccer and was listening to reports on BBC. It was there that I heard about some kind of England Test match where they were doing really poorly."
It stroked his curiosity. For reference, he went to the local library and picked up a book 'What is a Googly?' by Rob Eastaway. The same book (also sold in America under the title 'Cricket Explained') is said to have been gifted by the former British Premier John Major to the former American President George Bush. If Bush Sr got anything out of it, it's not known, but young Shecket surely got sufficiently interested in the sport. Then Cricinfo did the rest.
In 2001, Shecket got a chance to come to London for an internship stint with the Daily Star and watched county cricket. But it was only last year, after January 23, 2013, that cricket became a constant companion. That day Shecket was diagnosed with AML Leukemia. "I was immediately made inpatient in …continued »
