MUNCIE -- Twenty years after Magic Johnson announced to the world his HIV status, AIDS is still a reality in the United States, and East Central Indiana is no exception.
Close to 100 residents in Delaware County are HIV positive. The numbers have remained stagnant in recent years, but the increase of sexually transmitted diseases and infections -- the county saw a 25 percent rise in STDs/StIs in a one-year period according to the County Health Rankings -- has health advocates concerned about residents not practicing safe sex.

This is the 3rd Bazooka subwoofer that I have installed. I like the internal amp. The sound is great. Set up was easy.

Introducing the Bazooka Marine Bass Tubes. They bring the superior performance of Bazooka products to the water and you will be able to hear the incredible difference. Each of these Bazooka Marine Bass Tube subwoofers are equipped with critical features that greatly enhance their performance and reliability in the harsh marine environment. In comparison to the other marine subwoofer enclosures, these Bass Tubes last longer and produce more accurate bass. The subwoofers and enclosures are waterprrof and can be mounted just about anywhere on the boat. In addition to all of this, they feature plated speaker terminals, stainless steel hardware, UV resistant enclosure, and a nylon composite mounting system for the tubes. Your boat will never sound the same.
Acoustic Dampening Fiber
Bazooka's Patented Tube Enclosure
Bazooka Bass Tube Unique Features:Grill
Bazooka's highly efficient, customized woofers are specially designed and reinforced for use in the Bazooka Bass Tube enclosure, producing a pure piston action and generating the maximum bass output possible.
Edge Roll
All Bazooka Woofers used in Bass Tube enclosures feature large, high excursion, lightweight foam edge rolls to maximize their efficiency and overall bass output.
Tube Enclosure
A tube is a natural pressure vessel, and Bass is about pressure. The patented Bass Tube enclosure creates a natural, uniform, hydraulic transfer of the Bass energy produced by the woofer.
The port opening between the Tube Enclosure and the Port Tube allows for efficient transfer of bass. Bass Tubes enclosures utilize "Bass Reflex" technology to take advantage of both the forward and backward of the woofer, wasting no bass energy.
Port Tube
The bass energy created by both the forward and backward motion of the woofer are time aligned so that 100% of the woofer's output is concentrated into one output point.
Acoustic Damping Fiber
The acoustic damping material helps lower the resonance of the enclosure and simulates an increased air space.
Integrated Amplifier
The integrated amplifiers are performance matched to the specific woofers used in Bass Tube enclosures to ensure that every watt of power is efficiently turned into bass performance. Having the amplifier integrated into the enclosure simplifies the installation and eliminates power loss.
Corner Loading
Bass Tube enclosures are specifically designed to take advantage of the natural amplification characteristics that occur when a subwoofer is placed into the corner of a vehicle. The corner acts like a megaphone, substantially increasing bass performance.
How Do I Install a Bazooka Bass Tube?
Installation is Simple! The bass tube comes with straps to keep the sub securely mounted, while still making removal quick and easy if you need even more cargo room. Optional Chrome-Plated UMS Brackets give a flashier look, as well as a more secure, permanent mounting when removal isn't a problem.
The RMS power rating is the measure of continuous power that an amplifier can output, or a speaker can handle. It is the most accurate depiction of real, continuous power that the industry has so far.
If the final impedance of your speakers or subwoofers equals 4 ohms, this is how much power this amplifier will supply at that ohm level. The higher the RMS wattage, the more clean and loud your music will sound.
The RMS power rating is the measure of continuous power that an amplifier can output, or a speaker can handle. It is the most accurate depiction of real, continuous power that the industry has so far.
If the final impedance of your speakers or subwoofers equals 2 ohms, this is how much power this amplifier will supply at that ohm level. The higher the RMS wattage, the more clean and loud your music will sound.
An amplifier increases the power of the signal being fed to it by taking energy from its power supply and matching the signal but increasing its amplitude. Amplifiers use many different methods for converting these electrical signals and have been categorized into classes.
Class A/B: Greater than 50% of the input signal is amplified while the other percentage is "off". These amplifiers have a small amount of current flowing through the output transistors all the time which almost eliminates crossover distortion. Class A/B has great sound quality but is not as efficient as class D. These amps are most commonly used to drive speakers.
Class D: Also known as switching amplifiers, class D amps have output transistors that are completely turned "on" or "off". This means that when the transistors are on, there is almost no voltage across them but when they are off there is significant voltage but no current flowing through it which makes these amplifiers very efficient at the cost of sound quality. These amps are most commonly used to drive subwoofers.Other Classes: You may see classes such as GH, bD, X, FD, etc. by some manufactures. These amplifiers tend to be either class A/B, D or a hybrid of the two but with improvements to their designs that can make them more efficient or offer better sound quality.
Round/Circle: This is the typical and common subwoofer design. They have a round cone and are a circle in design.
Square: These woofers are able to achieve a greater cone area in a smaller space. Because of the greater surface area, some square subwoofers will be louder than a round subwoofer of the same size.
Binding post terminals are a sturdier, more versatile type of speaker terminal. Because binding post terminals are are threaded, you can tighten them down against the wire or connector for a tight, clean connection. The most popular style of binding post terminals is known as a "5-way binding post". This type can accept bare wire, or any of the common speaker wire connectors. Binding posts with the option to be used with banana clips are even more versatile
Spring posts are a hybrid of the two. Instead of using a thread and "screwing" them tight, they use a spring to allow the wire to fit and tighten against the terminal.

I have received 2 of these units. The first one was getting power to it but no sound out of the unit. Sent it in and received my replacement and it wont even power on. I have 3 other amps in where this was going and everything functions fine and this unit is not doing anything. I took it out and put the power and ground directly to the battery with no results at all.
It is irritating to put 2 units in my boat and neither work. I am only on my boat 2 days a week (if its not raining. if it is it may only be one day a week or less often). So I dont have a lot of time to keep putting these in and out. Plus the way this unit is packaged it doesn't surprise me that they don't work. Both have been in boxes that are falling apart when they arrive and they dont have a shred of packing material. it only has the unit in a plastic bag, with a little piece of cardboard around it. (although it really didn't seem damaged on the outside it could have bounced around and ruined it on the inside).

ESA Past President Testifies Before Congress
Submitted by rlevine on Thu, 2014-04-10 11:44
Annapolis, MD; April 10, 2014 – Representing the Entomological Society of America (ESA), Past President Robert Wiedenmann, Ph.D., testified today before the House Appropriations Subcommittee on Interior, Environment, and Related Agencies to request robust fiscal year (FY) 2015 funding for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the U.S. Forest Service.
The largest organization representing the professional and scientific needs of entomologists, ESA opposes proposed cuts to the Forest Service's Forest and Rangeland Research program, which includes important invasive species research and development.
"I am proud to represent the Society and share our message to congressional appropriators that advances in entomology are crucial to protect against critical threats that impact our country's economy, public health, and food security," said Wiedenmann, who served as President of ESA from 2012-2013 and is the current head of the Department of Entomology at the University of Arkansas, where he conducts research on biological control of invasive insects and weeds. "Budget cuts to forestry and environmental sciences compromise our bio-economy and undermine ecological and economic sustainability."
Specifically, Wiedenmann's testimony emphasized the significance of the Pesticides Licensing Program Area at EPA, which provides science-based environmental oversight of the regulation and use of pesticides. He also addressed the Agency's participation in the President's FY 2015 Pollinator Health Initiative request, a $45 million proposed multi-agency collaboration between the U.S. Department of Agriculture, EPA, and other federal partners to study factors impacting honey bee health and to develop recovery efforts for pollinator populations. Additionally, he discussed the critical role the U.S. Forest Service has in combating the effects of invasive insects and weeds throughout national forests.
Click here for Dr. Wiedenmann's full testimony.
The Entomological Society of America is the largest organization in the world serving the professional and scientific needs of entomologists and people in related disciplines. Founded in 1889, ESA today has more than 6,500 members affiliated with educational institutions, health agencies, private industry, and government. Members are researchers, teachers, extension service personnel, administrators, marketing representatives, research technicians, consultants, students, and hobbyists.

Patrick Ewing In College Basketball's 2012 Hall of Fame Class
Patrick Ewing, who led Georgetown University to college basketball's championship game in three of his four seasons, heads this year's class of inductees into the National Collegiate Basketball Hall of Fame.
Ewing, 49, will be among the 10 new members enshrined in the Kansas City, Missouri, Hall of Fame on Nov. 18. A three-time All-American, Ewing is Georgetown's leader in blocked shots, rebounds and games played, and led the Hoyas to a national championship in 1984.
The 7-foot Ewing, who after college played 15 National Basketball Association seasons in New York, will be joined in this year's class by former Knicks Willis Reed of Grambling University and Earl "The Pearl" Monroe of Winston-Salem State. Reed averaged 26.6 points and 21.3 rebounds as a senior at Grambling, while Monroe averaged 41.5 points a game in leading Winston-Salem to a Division II title in 1967.
Other players in the Class of 2012 include the University of Kansas's Clyde Lovellette, North Carolina's Phil Ford and Wyoming's Kenny Sailors, who has been credited with introducing the jump shot. Former Kentucky coach Joe B. Hall, who led the Wildcats to a championship while following Adolph Rupp, will also be inducted along with Dave Robbins, who won 713 games as coach at Virginia Union.
Jim Host, the founder of Host Communications, and Joe Dean, a former marketing executive with the Converse Rubber Co. and college basketball television analyst, will enter the Hall of Fame as contributors.

Fox Chapel runners have big shoes to fill
TribLIVE Sports Videos
Last season was one to remember for the Fox Chapel cross country team.
The boys compiled an 8-0 section record and finished second at the WPIAL meet.
They also qualified for the PIAA meet.
The girls went 7-1 in the section, and Mary Humphrey finished 14th at the WPIAL meet and 43rd at states.
Several key members of those teams graduated, but coach Tom Moul is hoping for another solid season.
"Our biggest losses were Ethan and Colin Martin, both of whom are attending Michigan on track scholarships," he said. "On the girls side, we lost Bella Verardi, who was our No. 2 runner. They will be missed. We've got some good runners returning, though."
The boys will be led by seniors Elias Graca, Jacob Halasowski, Chris Good and Andrew Golio. Junior Brendan Urso and sophomore Alec Eckman also will contribute.
"On the boys side, our strength will be our senior leadership and overall work ethic," Moul said.
"Many of the top kids have been working together all summer and are very focused going into the season.
"They feel they have something to prove, that Fox Chapel can still be a top team despite losing our two top guys from the past couple of seasons."
Humphrey, a junior, will pace the girls along with junior Maura Whelan. Seniors Greta Altmeyer and Sanders Bennett bring experience and leadership and will be joined by sophomore Harper Bennett.
"The girls are focused on improving as a team at the WPIAL meet and perhaps in the section, as well," the coach said.
"As individuals, Mary and Maura have been working very hard all summer, putting in the miles necessary to be successful this year. Mary is focused on winning a medal at states, and she'll have an opportunity to do so if she remains healthy and keeps working hard."
Moul expects Central Catholic to be the biggest section threat for the boys and Kiski Area for the girls.

It's pronounced "De Ole Ho".
Is she about to puke or piss herself?
Something tells me she is going commando. Just a feeling.
Who and why?
It's always kind of sad when the John won't pay for the cab fare home.
I'd do crazy, nasty things to this old broad. … And then make her pay me.
she's channeling Paz De la Huerta, who…I dunno…died I assume.
She's taking her annual bath. It's a week long affair.
(seriously, though, I have NO idea who this is)
Did You Know? Dell'Olio literally translates to, "of the oil."
Me thinks she's been heating a certain kind of oil on her stove.
faux or real that coat/cape thing makes me want to kill her and bury her in it.
eek! who is that?!
I'm not familiar with this particular train wreck.
Almost the de rigueur post for at least 30% of the pictures on TS at this point.
Tara tol' me to meet her here….TAARRRAA!!!!!!!
Where the fuck is that bitch…..is she fucking some guy in the Men's room again?
"I coulda been a contenduh!"
Jwoww cleans up good.
Check the one in the background. We got legs, ass and tits all in one picture. This photographer is a genius.
So this is where Courtney Stodden's old face went.
Not familiar with this woman, but I gotta wonder if maybe once upon a time she was pretty much close to almost damn near attractive.
Jwoww is looking pretty young these days.

@Thierry Totally, they're doing the pilot program to get some numbers and adapt. The coffee shop saves 20-30 cents a cup and the customer saves 25 cents. The real question is whether people return the cups, which is what @andrasek is getting at, at the shop it seemed like people really liked that they could drop the cup off and the coffee shop would wash it for them, but they don't have the numbers of cup returns yet. They were talking about some type of barcode or card swipe system that would give incentive to keep the cups in the cycle and not just have them pile up in your cabinets

What is MyFolio?
The MyFolio funds are a family of 25 carefully constructed risk-based portfolios, which offer your clients a choice of active and passive investment strategies across five risk levels and five investment styles. Whatever your investment philosophy, you decide on the most suitable risk profile and investment style for your client and select the appropriate MyFolio funds – we will then take care of the ongoing rebalancing and monitoring.
MyFolio aims to maximise returns for your selected level of risk through our innovative asset allocation approach.
- Using the range of selected asset classes, a strategic asset allocation benchmark is designed to generate the highest expected return for the given level of risk in each fund. We currently engage Moody's Analytics, world-leading experts in risk-modelling solutions, to consult with us on the optimum strategic asset allocation for each fund.
- In addition to strategic asset allocation, we undertake tactical asset allocation where we aim to take advantage of short-term investment opportunities across all MyFolio funds.
- All of the MyFolio funds invest in active commercial property, including the tracker-based MyFolio Market funds.
Absolute return investment strategies are incorporated across the four active ranges – the MyFolio Multi-Manager funds, MyFolio Multi-Manager Income funds, MyFolio Managed funds and the MyFolio Managed Income funds.
The ability to use the funds in combination also sets MyFolio apart. With the MyFolio range, you can mix and match funds of the same risk level, confident that your client's overall portfolio will stay within their chosen risk profile. This gives the ability to blend different investment styles to create bespoke investment strategies.

Bush Hygiene - Barberry Natural Antiseptic Mouthwash
- Uploaded by prepordie on Jan 28, 2013
- Views: 53
Thanks for watching, subscribing, and supporting this channel. Here's an easy way to make an effective antiseptic mouthwash in the bush or at home from a common ornamental shrub. Barberry is used to treat pyorrhea of the gums and other mouth and throat conditions. Japanese barberry (Berberis thunbergii) contains berberine, a known and proven antibacterial, antibiotic, and anti fungal compound. Berberine is found in other varieties of barberry such as Oregon grape, and in other plants such as goldthread and goldenseal (Hydrastis canadensis). Parts of barberry used are the roots, bark and fruit, all these parts of the barberry plant contain berberine. Barberry berries can be made into tea as a barberry infusion, a decoction of barberry bark and roots can be made, or, for long term storage a barberry tincture can be made with grain alcohol, vinegar or glycerin. Berberine has potential to treat the following diseases; cancer, diabetes, congestive heart failure, and depression among others. Berberine has shown to be effective against fungal infections such as yeast infection, ringworm, and athlete's foot. Berberine may be effective against giardia and other parasites found in drinking water that cause traveler's diarrhea. Berberine or barberry has also shown to be effective against bacteria such as staph (Staphylococcus), strep (Streptococcus), salmonella which causes food poisoning, and E-coli (Escherichia coli) which can be found in water Berberis species are also used to ...

What comes after content marketing? Here are four ideas.
Feb 24th
I've been thinking and writing a lot about the evolving role of content in the marketing world — from the challenges of the "physics" of social media marketing, to Coke's bold vision for a content-based marketing strategy.
My friend Mitch Joel has also been pondering this topic. In a post entitled The Content Crash, Mitch states that the field has simply "become a pumping ground for a marketing message. Very few (companies) are thinking about utilitarianism marketing and even fewer are thinking about the overall experience."
Content is advertising?
But here is the line in Mitch's post that stung me: "It is my belief, that content is the new advertising."
Wait a minute. People HATE advertising. Does this mean that people are increasingly hating our content too?
Advertising is a paid interruption in an otherwise pleasant stream of content. Is content becoming an unpleasant interruption in our lives, too? With this native advertising trend of craftily embedding paid messages in "free" content, are the lines hopelessly blurred so that content marketing is suspicious and meaningless? Are content marketers the new snake oil shills?
Mitch contends that for content — sponsored or otherwise — to work, it must be exceedingly useful. So what does that mean? What could a possible game plan be to become the signal instead of the noise in this overly-crowded space?
Here are four possible scenarios in a "post content marketing" environment.
Radical trust
It seems that when bloggers reach critical audience mass, most succumb to the temptation of taking money to pump paper shredders, luggage, weight loss programs or any other product willing to exchange a fast buck for audience trust. Once you cross that line, your content becomes an ad, not something that is exceedingly useful.
Here is a chart that I believes graphically demonstrates the impact of turning your content into an advertisement — the Alexa traffic rank of a blogger who began aggressively monetizing their blog through sponsored posts in 2011:
In just 18 months, the popular site has dropped from position 5,000 to 30,000. Other key metrics such as reach and pageviews have similarly dropped off the cliff. Of course this is just one data point and we can't necessarily make a conclusion about absolute cause and effect, but I think a strong hypothesis is that this blog is hemorrhaging because it is no longer a trusted source of content. It is an infomercial.
I think one possible lesson as we look to the future is to create a content environment of radical trust. Once you become an ad, you can never go back. I think this chart demonstrates the business case for trust.
Content that learns
In Don Tapscott's fine book Grown Up Digital, he makes the case that the Net Generation puts a huge premium on customization.
The Baby Boomers take technology for what it is and hope it works. Net Geners make the technology theirs. They want options. They love to customize, and even the option to customize makes a product more attractive.
Why would they want your news stream when they can create their own? How do we enable our content consumers to determine HOW, WHEN and WHAT they receive from us?
While we have rudimentary forms of aggregation available to us — by topic, by keyword, by author, for example — we need to create self-aware content that conforms to the immediate needs of our customers.
This is happening to a large degree with display ads. If you type an email in the gmail platform, the sidebar ads may change to reflect the topic you are writing about. Spooky when it comes to ads, but immensely useful when it comes to content. Although we are collecting vast amounts of information about our customers, we have yet to unleash it in a way that is relevant for a moment in time.
An example: A reader of {grow} has just visited Stanford Smith's blog and searched about blogging fundamentals. When she comes to {grow} she is offered a suggestion of similar topics, in addition to the latest news from my site. Or perhaps readers help the process along by choosing the precise topics they want to see and the hourly, daily, or weekly level of delivery for those topics.
Content that pays
I think we are on the cusp of seeing a merging between content marketing and the gamification trend. Why not reward your most loyal readers with badges and award levels after completing certain tasks? A frequent flyer program for content.
Would you like to receive a Platinum Reward Level on {grow} after so many comments, shares or page views? I am already seeing some sites that are creating Foursquare-style badges and leaderboards for participating in site activities.
As it becomes harder and harder to cut through the web's information density, isn't it logical that companies would start paying you to view their information?
Making the leap to something entirely new
We are probably 24 months away from the augmented reality revolution. The Internet, and content, will surround us like the air that we breathe. There will be an opportunity to create content in an entirely different way — in three dimensions, in the moment of need, on voice command. Blogs, podcasts and even videos may seem old-fashioned. There will be a huge advantages and opportunities for the pioneers of this entirely new vision of content.
Beyond "overwhelming"
Here's a dirty secret of content marketing. Today it is possible to win the inbound lead battle simply by being first and overwhelming, a trend I characterized last year as the content arms race. You don't have to be great. You don't even have to be good. And to some extent it is even possible to fake your way to the top. But that can't last. The market will adjust. Something has to emerge that will trump strategies based on sponsored posts, social proof, and commodity content.
I've provided four scenarios but what are your ideas? How are you going to move your brand beyond the noise and become the signal?

The one core secret to social media marketing success
Feb 10th
I know this blog post title might sound a bit simplistic — perhaps sensational — coming from me, but I do think there is one core idea to consider when starting a social media strategy that is often misunderstood … or missed all together. So I hope this explanation will help a lot of people struggling to figure things out!
You could go blind reading tricks, tips and strategies for social media marketing success. But after being immersed in this space for many years now and having counseled thousands of business owners, executives and students, I think there is really one core idea everyone needs to consider when embarking on this journey.
Most companies and individuals start with an examination of platforms. Do I need a Facebook page? A blog? A Twitter account? Where do I start and how do I get going?
Instead, I think there is another fundamental question to ask: "What is the source of my rich content?"
Let me explain what I mean by this strange little question with a story.
A small case study
Two years ago I wrote a blog post about a new company on the scene named Klout, which had the audacity to suggest that it could measure your online influence. Nobody had really heard about it at the time so it was a very interesting subject. Here's what happened:
The comment section blew up. People from all over the world chimed in with ideas, questions and concerns. So people engaged with the content and also provided lots of thought-provoking ideas for me to consider. In fact, these discussions ultimately led to the idea of writing a book about this entirely new trend of social influence.
The post went viral. It was tweeted about 1,000 times and was shared across multiple platforms. My ideas spread.
Many people were so interested in this topic that they blogged about my blog, providing additional discussion and other means to spread my ideas and my post.
A few weeks after I wrote the post, I received a call from a New York Times reporter. She was doing an article on this new trend, Googled it, and found my post. The social validation of the shares, comments, and back links undoubtedly helped guide her search to me.
She wrote an article which appeared in the Sunday New York Times. The article was subsequently syndicated by hundreds of newspapers across the U.S. and the world. A London Daily Mail reporter saw the article and generated an entirely new piece using my quotes.
The results are in
Let's summarize the business benefits of this one blog post:
- Writing the post helped clarify my thinking on a subject and create useful content for my readers.
- The content spread virally, attracting thousands of new people to my site and my business.
- Comments on the blog provided me with lots of new ideas and helped create an idea for something bigger — a book.
- Since the original content was shared so much, it helped influence Google's search results.
- The blog post attracted the attention of a reporter from a very important newspaper, resulting in millions of impressions for my personal brand in newspapers around the world.
Now here is the key question to consider. Would any of this happened if I had only posted my thoughts on the subject through a Facebook post, a tweet, or a LinkedIn update? Of course not. I needed to provide rich content to have a chance at benefits like this.
There is no guarantee something like this will happen to you if you create original, rich content. But I do guarantee it will never happen if you don't.
Defining rich content
One common mantra we all hear over and over again is "content is king."
And this is true, but not just any content will do. A link, a funny photo, a famous quote, or even a recipe or coupon are legitimate types of content, but these are not the types of content that will optimize your social media presence and bring you powerful, lasting results. To really go for it, you must have at least one source of original rich content and you probably have just three viable options:
A blog.
A podcast.
A video series.
Only in-depth, conversational content from at least one of these sources will provide the content fuel to give you a chance to reap the immense benefits from a social media strategy.
There are other possible secondary sources — photographic content, Slideshare presentations, perhaps a Pinterest page — but I think the three tried and true sources accessible to most businesses are blogs, podcasts, and video.
Once you make that decision and begin to execute, you'll have the content behind you that powers whatever social media platforms you choose. A source of rich content provides something that is then shareable, conversational, and engaging for Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and other social platforms.
So after you have a solid business and marketing strategy in place and you are ready to embark on this wonderful social media journey, I suggest your first question should be, "What is the source of my rich content?"
The floor is yours. What do you think? Make sense?

There will be no social media apocalypse
Jan 30th
I like and admire Erik Qualman. I've met him a couple of times and he is a fellow author at McGraw Hill. He is a kind man, a legitimate intellect, and one of the top speakers in our field.
His insanely popular series of fast-paced "social media revolution" videos have been viewed millions of times and are standard fare to kick off a social media class or workshop. In under four minutes, these catchy factoid machines impress upon the viewer the power and importance of our society's digital transformation.
But there is one "fact" that Erik has included in each version that makes me cringe:
"The ROI of social media is your business will still exist in 5 years."
If you would believe Erik, we are on the cusp of a social media apocalypse. Without Facebook, Twitter and the all-important "listening," we would expect companies to start going "poof" during the impending social media rapture event.
Ironically, Erik's first video with this quote was about five years ago … and there has been no such end of the business world. Miraculously there are still plenty of businesses that don't even have a Facebook page that are somehow making lots of money. Like Apple.
Let's not sell fear
Certainly the digital revolution is real and any smart businessperson must consider the consequences and adjust. But adjusting to your changing competitive environment is just smart business and it always has been.
Business success is about far more than having an active Twitter account. A common problem I see is that businesses and many consultants peddle this fear and a notion that the lack of a social media strategy is a sure sign of doom.
In fact, that may be the least of their worries.
Let's not lose sight that businesses need to identify and execute upon a sustainable point of differentiation, perhaps in a global marketplace. They need to create products and services that brilliantly address unmet or under-served customer wants and needs. They need to constantly adjust and innovate. Successful businesses need to manufacture their products through an efficient and reliable supply chain with consistent quality. Customer service levels need to meet or exceed customer expectations. The company needs to attract and retain the talented employees that will sustain the success of the enterprise.
And then we can talk about Facebook.
Social media does not assure business success
When social media gurus point to success stories, Dell Computer is always at the top of the list. Yet the company's stock is at a five-year low. Let's keep in mind that it takes a lot of moving parts to create business success and having an effective social media strategy is neither profitability pixie dust nor an insurance policy against demise.
I think the point that Erik tries to make — and I do agree — is that without considering digital relevancy, a company will be vulnerable. Today, it's negligent to dismiss the digital revolution. I just think there is a better way to get that across than hyping doom.
What do you think? I'd love to hear your thoughts in the comment section.

The insider's guide to social media consulting success
Jan 20th
When I have been asked for a proposal to create a social media marketing strategy for a company, I have won the business 95 percent of the time. That may seem remarkable but I've found there is one simple secret of social media consulting success and connecting with companies at this early stage of engagement.
Competing agencies typically try to impress by piecing together glossy, elaborate plans spanning from Facebook promotions to blasting out a Pinterest campaign.
I do no such thing. In fact, I put together no plan at all. I simply, and truthfully, tell the client that I don't know what they need. And neither do they. We need to start with a foundational strategy (not an action plan) that is aligned with the company's goals, and even more important, aligned with the company's CULTURE.
Social media consulting success secrets
This is the difference between creating a glimmering strategy that crashes and burns on take-off, and a realistic strategy that can actually be accomplished and change the company.
In every organization there are five common hurdles to social media success. A critical step in the strategy development process is to provide a painfully honest assessment of these factors and the company's ability to execute and sustain a social media marketing initiative. That is where the consulting process should begin — not picking out the colors for the Facebook page!
Assessing the social media "engine"
Here are the five critical components I assess before even thinking about creating a social media plan:
Budget and resources — Is the company willing to commit the proper financial and human resources to execute the right way, or are they just checking a box to create an image? Do they seem committed to adopting "digital" as a business philosophy? How will they make this transformation?
Technology — I look at this very broadly. Is this a tech-savvy company eager to embrace new platforms or are they stuck in the 1990s? Are they fast and flexible, or ponderous in their approach to development? Have they erected security firewalls that will jeopardize success? Is the IT department a fortress resisting change or an agent propelling progress?
ROI and measurement — Does the company have a realistic view of the social media opportunity, or are they looking for immediate gratification? Are they willing to consider qualitative, as well as quantitative, measures of success? Do they even have measurement processes in place that we can build upon? Are they looking at this as a band-aid or a long-term strategy?
Legal — Can the Legal Department adjust to the new demands of the social web? Are they willing to push accountability down through the organization or will they have to approve every tweet? Are they also willing to make the cultural adjustment necessary or will they "review" an initiative into oblivion?
Corporate culture/leadership — I mention this last, but it is not the least. In fact, it is most important of all. A corporate culture is very complex but is largely determined by the leadership of the organization. If the leadership does not understand, embrace, and become actively involved in the change, a social media initiative will never move past checking a box. There is no such thing as a grassroots cultural change in a company> The leader has to be actively on board. Is the company culture customer-centric? Conservative? Slow to change? Nimble?
Now what?
Once you do this analysis, what do you do with it?
Creating an actionable and sustainable social media initiative requires all five of these building blocks to be in place. Think of these elements as integral parts of an engine. If even one part is not working, the car may start quickly, limp along for awhile, but ultimately sputter and stop.
So the strategy must be created in the context of the political reality of the company. Perhaps the first step toward social media success is not starting a blog or Facebook page, but hosting a series of social media workshops to get everybody on the same page. Or maybe it's one-on-one counseling with a leader, or creating an internal social media council.
Social media consulting success doesn't start with a Facebook page, it begins (and perhaps ends) with corporate culture. Agree? Do you see these landmines and opportunities at your companies too?

Good afternoon, I'm Mike Seymour. I am the director of the office of physical hazards in OSHA's directorate of standards and guidance. I appreciate the opportunity to speak to you today about OSHA's ergonomics guidelines for nursing homes. In April of 2002 Secretary Chao announced OSHA's comprehensive strategy for addressing ergonomics. This four-pronged approach included:
The office of physical hazards was assigned the task of developing the industry and task specific guidelines, the first of which addressed ergonomics in nursing homes.
In preparing to develop the guidelines OSHA staff collected literature and statistics and we conducted site visits to several nursing homes that had already implemented effective ergonomics programs. We felt strongly that we needed to understand the environment, listen to the administrators and workers in nursing homes and build on your industry's successes if we were to develop guidelines that would provide assistance in addressing the difficult ergonomics issues in nursing homes. All of the data we collected showed that the primary issue in nursing homes is resident lifting and repositioning. Successful nursing home programs have found effective ways to deal with this issue. I would like to give you a flavor for some of the comments we heard during our site visits:
Worker satisfaction has increased greatly. One nursing assistant, who has spent most of her career working in nursing homes, confessed to being sore and unhappy before lifts were introduced. After the innovations at the nursing home, she reported that she is no longer hurting. She concluded that "I think my career is right here 'til my time is due to retire comfortable. And you know if my time comes to be in a nursing home, I do hope I get one like ours."
It was not uncommon to hear workers say:
A nursing supervisor told us:
Every day she would ask "why aren't you using the lifts", and the response would be "I don't have time to use the lifts." This went on for weeks until she decided to time how long it took to find help and perform a two-person lift. The time was 15 minutes. On the next two-man lift, I made the nurse aide use a sit to stand lift. The resident was moved from the bed to her wheelchair in 5 minutes." 15 minutes for a two-man lift and 5 minutes for a mechanical lift.
We also talked to nursing home administrators who told us that the financial benefits of implementing ergonomics were easily seen in terms of:
What one nursing home administrator called a "miracle" -- we call ergonomics.
Ergonomics in nursing homes is a win-win-win proposition.
I would like to thank those of you that have had the vision and leadership to see the opportunities that ergonomics presents in nursing homes.
Let's talk a little bit about OSHA's ergonomics guidelines. The first step in developing ergonomics guidelines was to establish a protocol. OSHA's protocol stressed public participation. During the initial drafting phases, we met with:
We published draft guidelines based, in part, on the information we collected from these valuable resources. The publication of the draft was followed by a 60-day comment period during which OSHA received 98 comments from a variety of stakeholders.
In November of 2002 we held a stakeholder meeting in which more than 50 stakeholders shared their experience and ideas for improving the draft guidelines.
Based on the public comments we revised the draft guidelines to simplify the language - we eliminated the safety and health jargon and formatted the document to make it easy to read. Other revisions clarified the relationship of the guidelines to OSHA's enforcement activities. On March 13, 2003 we published the final ergonomics guidelines for nursing homes.
OSHA provided two fundamental recommendations in the executive summary. These recommendations are:
(1) That manual lifting of residents be minimized in all cases and eliminated when feasible.
(2) And that employers implement an effective ergonomics process that:
In the executive summary we also emphasize that the guidelines are advisory in nature and informational in content. They do not impose any new OSHA compliance burden. An employer's failure to implement the guidelines is not a violation. Finally in the executive summary we recommend that nursing homes adapt the information contained in the guidelines to the specific needs of each place of employment.
In the introduction the guidelines address the risk factors that nursing home employees face including:
We also briefly describe the success that some nursing homes have had in addressing these risk factors.
Section 2 of the guidelines describes a process for protecting workers.
Section 3 of the guidelines provides recommendations for methods for of identifying and implementing solutions for resident lifting and repositioning. This section contains flow charts that address resident assessment that were drawn from excellent work done by the veteran's administration. This section also provides 22 graphical representations of solutions for resident lifting and repositioning problems. Each provides a brief description, lists when a solution should be used, and presents points to remember, including safety considerations when they are appropriate.
Section 4 of the guidelines provides recommendations for methods of identifying problems and implementing solutions for other activities such as the laundry, food services and general cleaning. This section provides brief guidance on how to identify risk factors in these activities and provides 11 examples of possible solutions for addressing these risk factors.
Section 5 establishes learning objectives for workers, supervisors and managers in nursing homes. The section provides lists of topics that could be included in ergonomics training for each type of employee.
Section 6 provides additional sources of information for nursing homes that need a little help in getting started. Such sources include the OSHA consultation program as well as OSHA's training institute and educational centers.
The Appendix to the guidelines contains a case study of a nursing home that has successfully implemented an ergonomics process and integrated it into their day-to-day operations.
Copies of the guidelines are available at OSHA's website at www.osha.gov. Copies are also available at our booth here at the conference. As Mr., Henshaw, the assistant secretary for OSHA, said in a recent article about the guidelines, "the only way these guidelines will make a difference in reducing injuries is if nursing homes actually make use of these strategies." Finally, I wish you success in your efforts to implement an ergonomics process in your facilities.Back to Top
