About Bill Blass
History and background of Bill Blass. In 1940, when Bill Blass left Indiana for New York's Seventh Avenue, fashion designers were hidden behind the closed doors of the manufacturers' studios where they produced designs for suits and dresses that would never carry their own names. But Blass stood apart from the crowd: he not only created chic ensembles, he fashioned a social and professional persona that demanded attention. Read more about Bill Blass

I get compliments everywhere I go wearing this fragrance and from all different types of people. Perfect strangers walk up and say "they just had to ask me what perfume I'm wearing". most important, this cologne has never bothered scent sensitive or people with bad allergies. I put it on after every shower and it last till I wash it off. only problem is, with most frangrances, it will not smell the same on everyone. My daughter tried it and even though it was still pleasant, it was not the same as it is with my chemistry. My daughter has VERY oily skin, maybe that is the difference.

I'm not sure when exactly they stopped the production of Nude, but it is very apparent that this bottle was old. It was very yellow in color and had a hint of the original fragrance with a strong alcohol base. Very disappointed and was going to return but figured if I tried to reorder, I was only going to have the same issue. Time to seek out another perfume unfortunately!

The Successful Women of Central Valley (SWCV), a local 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, will host a benefit film viewing of "Half the Sky" at the State Theatre in Modesto on Thursday, March 31. Proceeds will benefit three local women's groups: the Haven Women's Center of Stanislaus, Without Permission, and Successful Women of Central Valley. All three organizations have shared goals of supporting, educating, benefiting and improving the lives of women and young ladies in the Central Valley.
Who will help make laws that govern your life? The Stanislaus County League of Women Voters and the League of California Cities will be hosting a Candidate Forum where you can meet your candidates for the upcoming election in California Assembly District 12. It is free and open to the public. The district, which includes portions of Stanislaus and San Joaquin counties including Oakdale, Riverbank and Escalon, is currently represented by Kristin Olsen, who is terming out of the seat.
The Modesto Library will host a grand opening celebration for its Veterans Resource Center, Monday, April 4 at 5:30 p.m. The festivities will feature U.S. Rep. Jeff Denham, Stanislaus County Supervisor Dick Monteith and other officials, as well as a special performance of patriotic music by members of the Johansen High School band.
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Sacramento District will begin charging a $5 day use fee for park access beginning May 1 at Stanislaus River Parks near Oakdale.
There was no shortage of hungry attendees feasting on the breaded bovine nuggets at the 35th annual Oakdale Testicle Festival at the FES Hall on Monday night, March 21. The event, sponsored by the Oakdale Rotary Club, has been an Oakdale staple, getting the city national attention since the 1980s when local Rotarians sought something unique as a fund-raising affair that would reflect the local western heritage of the area.
Christian Armstrong isn't your stereotypical high school student. To summarize him by title would almost be going against the grain of who he strives to be.
Knights Ferry was awash in history with Confederate and Yankee soldiers milling about for the annual Civil War Reenactment held Saturday and Sunday, March 19 and 20. The Knights Ferry canyon echoed with the cannon blasts as the reenactors provided history, entertainment, and plenty of good old-fashioned fun for the annual event. Nine-year-old twin sisters Natalie and Julie from Turlock were in the Ferry for the annual reenactment, helping collect donations for the event. It costs $7 to $10 per cannon explosion and the American Civil War Association (ACWA) relies upon donations to keep history alive for attendees. A camp ...
The annual Knights Ferry Community Club will serve up its annual Spaghetti Dinner fundraiser on Saturday, March 19 at 5 p.m. in the clubhouse.
Soroptimist International of Oakdale will host its annual Motor Madness fundraiser on Saturday, April 2 at 6:30 p.m., at the Gene Bianchi Community Center, 110 S. Second Ave., Oakdale. Guests will be entertained by Rob Ely who will present "The Rockin' 50's" and are encouraged to dress in 50's attire. The event includes hors d'oeuvres, wine, beer, soft drinks, and dessert. Tickets are $100 each and admits two adults (must be 21 years or older) to the event and constitutes one entry for the door prize drawings.
While in town on Wednesday, March 9, US Representative Jeff Denham stopped by The Leader office to discuss recent subjects that have been part of his focus this legislative year. Two issues, both introduced by the congressman, the Federal Asset Sale and Transfer (FAST) Act of 2016 and the Save Our Salmon (SOS) Act of 2016 were topics of the conversation.
Assemblywoman and lifelong Stanislaus County resident Kristin Olsen will seek a seat on the Stanislaus County Board of Supervisors following the surprise retirement of Supervisor Bill O'Brien.
The lines have been drawn and the boundaries approved.
A man convicted of a 1999 homicide in Oakdale was found unsuitable for parole in a hearing by the State Board of Parole in Vacaville late last month.
Oakdale Police along with Stanislaus County Sheriff's deputies had West Avenue near West F Street closed off for most of Tuesday morning, March 15, regarding a suspicious incident of persons being held against their will. During the incident, one male subject was taken into custody for a narcotic violation and a female was taken into custody for a misdemeanor arrest warrant. A third subject, a male, was also taken into custody but police are not releasing his name or charges due to possibly compromising another investigation.
In a Pro Bull Riding tragedy in Arizona this weekend, Julio Moreno's two-time World Champion Bull contender, and half-brother of Oakdale's infamous Bushwacker, 'Roy' sustained two broken front legs after scoring a career best 46.5 score and bucking off 2015 World Finals event winner Cooper Davis after only a 2.43 second ride on Sunday, March 6.

3.3-magnitude earthquake rattles ground near Luther
LUTHER — A 3.3-magnitude earthquake shook the ground near Luther about 7:45 p.m. Friday, the U.S. Geological Survey reported.
The tremor struck about seven miles east south east of Luther, USGS said. Its reported depth was about 3.7 miles.
A small area in south Oklahoma City felt light shaking, though most reports of light to moderate shaking surrounded Luther and Shawnee, USGS officials said.

text: 000 FXUS63 KBIS 271743 AFDBIS Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Bismarck ND 1243 PM CDT FRI MAY 27 2016 .UPDATE... Issued at 1243 PM CDT Fri May 27 2016 Updated forecast soundings across western and central North Dakota revealed a potential for convection at all sites. Therefore this update we added a slight chance mention of thundershowers for the afternoon and early evening hours for areas where there had been no mention of a chance (namely the southwest and south central). Chances of 25 to 50 percent for showers and thundershowers remains across northern counties and also in the James River Valley. Scattered thunderstorms in eastern South Dakota were lifting northward as a result of upper level impulses moving northward associated with another upper level low in the central plains. UPDATE Issued at 946 AM CDT Fri May 27 2016 Fog has dissipated nearly all areas...and expect through this hour that all locales should be fog free. No big changes needed and blended hourly temperature trends to the forecast. UPDATE Issued at 631 AM CDT Fri May 27 2016 No significant changes required other than to blend to observed trends through 11 UTC. Maintained a thunderstorm free forecast for today southwest and south central where mid 30s to mid 40s dew points are in place this morning, with little airmass exchange forecast today. && .SHORT TERM...(Today and tonight) Issued at 225 AM CDT Fri May 27 2016 Morning fog, possibly dense, and the redevelopment of showers and some thunderstorms this afternoon and early evening highlight the short term. For the near term period now through mid morning, areas of fog, possibly dense, will be monitored for portions of western and south central North Dakota. This is associated with a clear/dry slot and calm surface winds. The latest HRRR shows fog, and an elevated stratus layer above the surface. This may be a combination of low clouds along with patchy dense fog. This is expected to dwindle by 15z. Mid to upper level closed low per water vapor imagery seen circulating over the Turtle Mountains slowly opens up today and meanders into southern Manitoba this afternoon. Theme from the past several days with cyclonic flow and cold pool of air aloft with instability being maximized in the afternoon and early evening will continue today. However, cape and shear are both weaker this afternoon as compared to Thursday. Expect the sky to once again cloud up with daytime heating with an increasing cumulus field. The highest pops will reside in the north closer to the 700mb upper low, with decreasing chances south. No severe weather anticipated given the environmental conditions mentioned above. The showers and thunderstorms will diminish with sunset this evening. .LONG TERM...(Saturday through Thursday) Issued at 225 AM CDT Fri May 27 2016 The overall message of chances for showers and thunderstorms remains unchanged. However, confidence for the most widespread event and potentially severe event is Monday afternoon west, then transitioning into central North Dakota Monday night into Tuesday. The driest days appear to be Sunday and Thursday. Timing of shortwaves and associated showers and thunderstorms prior to Monday per GFS and ECMWF suggest that a mid level shortwave will shift from eastern Montana into western and central ND Saturday evening and night. Thunderstorms that develop Saturday afternoon west will propagate into central North Dakota Saturday night while weakening with time. This shortwave exits Sunday morning, with a mid level transitory ridge amplifying over central ND for a mainly dry day Sunday into Monday morning. A closed mid and upper level low approach Monday and slowly moves east across western and central ND Tuesday through Wednesday. Severe potential ahead of the system Monday afternoon through Tuesday morning as mentioned above. This is followed by a dry slot, then cooler air with rain showers on the back side of the system Wednesday. && .AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Saturday afternoon) Issued at 1243 PM CDT Fri May 27 2016 Mainly VFR conditions are expected this afternoon and evening, with isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms. Confidence in the shower and thunderstorm activity is highest at KISN and KMOT, where we included a VCTS in the TAFs during the afternoon, and at KJMS, where a VCSH was carried tonight. Finally, MVFR and IFR ceilings are likely in northwest and north central ND tonight and Saturday morning. && .BIS Watches/Warnings/Advisories... NONE. && $$ UPDATE...JV AVIATION...CJS

The Hamptons Collegiate Baseball League will host its all-star game Saturday night at Cochran Park in Peconic. More than 50 of the top players in the seven-team summer league will participate. (more…)
The Hamptons Collegiate Baseball League will host its all-star game Saturday night at Cochran Park in Peconic. More than 50 of the top players in the seven-team summer league will participate. (more…)
For one of the top pitching prospects out of Long Island in recent years, Stephen Woods' career on the mound has been remarkably brief.
It wasn't until his junior year at Half Hollow Hills East High School that Woods turned to pitching full-time as a baseball player. He had been a third baseman and outfielder, winning a gold glove award at third as a sophomore and earning all-league honors. (more…)
Brett Mauser had hoped the milestone moment would have come late last summer when Major League Baseball rosters expanded and clubs began calling up players from their farm system. Alas, it never happened.
As the 2014 MLB season unfolded, it quickly became apparent that the race was on. The Hamptons Collegiate Baseball League, now in its seventh year, was on the verge of seeing its first former player called up to the majors. (more…)
Luke Stampfl has a knack for timely hits against Riverhead.
Stampfl singled up the middle in the bottom of the ninth inning Monday night to drive in two runs, rallying the North Fork Ospreys to a come-from-behind victory over the Riverhead Tomcats in the Hamptons Collegiate Baseball League. (more…)
Randy Caden is well versed in dealing with twins; the Riverhead Tomcats manager has twin boys. Still, when it comes to telling apart brothers Mike and Mark Donadio, two outfielders suiting up for the Tomcats this summer, Caden admits it's often a toss-up.
"You can't tell them apart unless you know the number," he said. "Sometimes I think I have one and I turn and it's the wrong one." (more…)
As the fifth-year manager of the Riverhead Tomcats, Randy Caden is already one of the elder statesman in the Hamptons Collegiate Baseball League.
"I love it," Caden said. "Coaching at Farmingdale and then coming here, it's a different type of athlete. It's baseball, and when you're playing good baseball, it's enjoyable." (more…)
This Penn didn't need a hit to mark his imprint on the game.
Even without a hit, Penn Murfee had an unquestioned impact on the outcome of the North Fork Ospreys-Riverhead Tomcats game on Sunday. True enough, the Ospreys third baseman went 0 for 2 at the plate, but it wasn't with his bat that he made a difference so much as with his legs, his keen eye and his baseball instincts. (more…)
The weather was ideal and the scene was idyllic for the Riverhead Tomcats' Opening Day.
With the sun shining brilliantly, both the Montauk Mustangs and the Tomcats lined up before their Hamptons Collegiate Baseball League game and stood at attention while Erin Southard, a Riverhead High School freshman, sang the national anthem. Everything and everybody was ready for the game, that is, except the sound system and the Tomcats. (more…)

Thats really awesome & brilliant as it sort of maintains the continuity from DR1 on the pokemon front apart from the characters themselves

The mitral valve controls blood flow through the heart. With each heartbeat, it opens to allow blood to flow into the heart's main pumping chamber — the left ventricle. When the left ventricle contracts to push blood out through the body, the mitral valve then closes to prevent blood from flowing back into the left atrium of the heart toward the lungs. An abnormal or damaged mitral valve cannot completely seal the heart's left ventricle, resulting in poor blood flow. In some cases, a mitral valve can be repaired with surgery that rebuilds the tissue of the "leaky" valve with the help of an artificial band that provides stability.
Traditional open heart surgery for repair or replacement of the mitral valve, requires surgeons to make a long incision and split the breast bone to reach the heart. But here at Albany Med we use smaller incisions with partial sternal splitting or through the side of the chest with minimal rib spreading. This is a highly advanced technique that is only performed at select hospitals.
Who expects a healthy 7-year-old boy to have a stroke? No one. But when it happened to Arthur he went to Albany Med to get some answers. The cause? An infection in the heart. Two surgeries later he is playing basketball in the driveway like any other kid.

Washington, April of the death of General Grant was received with profound sorrow in army and of- ficial circles, especially by those older officers with whom the general had been intimately associated for years. The announcement was not entirely unexpected, for, while there had been no official notification of General Grant's illness. It was known several days ago that he was in a very grave condition. General Wood, chief of staff of the army, was one of.the first to receive the news. He said: ".General Grant's death will be a gfeat, loss tor-the'service.. .He was one of the' army's most efficient and val- uable officers."

Some of'the. men who preach the re- call, he said, were 'siticere, but all of them acted, from. a desire to propose change rather than with any definite plan for the improvement of condi- tions.

Pads' Black, GM Hoyer remain on honeymoon
You know the drill, because its bit has been drilled deeply into the rafters of our modern sporting structure.
A coach is resting comfortably in a house decorated for him by the general manager, who gave him the keys.
But then there's a change of ownership, and the general manager is bounced, and the landlord brings in a young GM who was being bottle-fed when the coach was in high school.
The coach gets nervous. He doesn't know this person, who doesn't even have a reputation, because he hasn't been around long enough to get one. So he does his own research.
The coach has been around. He knows the territory, the landscape, how it is. He isn't the GM's "guy." GMs like to bring in their own "guys."
So the coach has his shoes resoled with eggshells. He knows he hasn't won a whole lot, but that was OK with the old GM, because the old GM knew how hard it is to buy at Tiffanys with brass farthings.
And that's how it usually is in sports. We see it constantly, no matter the activity.
But we aren't seeing it with the Padres. At least not yet. The forced marriage between Padres manager Bud Black and new GM Jed "Baby Face" Hoyer remains in its honeymoon stage, and appears likely to stay that way for a while.
Until too many losses do they part? Who knows? It's baseball. They may be the best team since Abbott and Costello.
Black next week will head to spring training in Peoria, Ariz., to begin his fourth season as Padres skipper, secured by a contract extension given him in 2009 by Jeff Moorad. This was before the CEO fired former GM Kevin Towers, the man who hired Black.
Enter Hoyer, all of 36, as the new GM by way of the rich Boston Red Sox, where pockets run deeper than still water.
"We've gotten to know each other," says Black, 16 years Hoyer's senior. "We've done a lot of talking about the club, the players, philosophy, the makeup of the club. There has been open, honest communication, free-flowing information.
"It's just like in any business. The manager is tied to the GM like the manager is tied to the coaches, and down the line. It's really been great to get to know Jed. I got great reports on him from (Red Sox manager) Terry Francona, who I'm great friends with, and (Sox pitching coach) John Farrell. I'm sure we both did background work on each other."
That's correct. Hoyer didn't come west without dialing 411.
"I was very close with Terry Francona and John Farrell and I went to them when this opportunity came up," Hoyer says. "They couldn't say enough good things about Bud. So, I came in expecting real good things from Bud, and he's been everything I expected.
"He's been a great resource for me. Obviously, I've had a ton of questions, and he's been great. It's been very natural. We've established a relationship; I'm looking forward to establishing a relationship with him when games are played."
Before his hiring in 2007, when he pushed his Padres to an 89-74 record — coming within a Trevor Hoffman pitch of reaching the playoffs — Black hadn't been a manager at any level. But there was plenty of baseball experience as a pitching coach with the Angels and 17 years as a pitcher in organized ball, 15 in the majors.
So, when he got the call from Towers, he was ready to manage. It was the right time. He's not so sure he was prepared before that, although previous inquiries had been made as to his state of readiness.

Pretty Nice, Common Shorts
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
- Fit: Runs large
I like the shorts, but this is a pretty common pair of shorts. The material is loose, not like a thick canvas short. I often wear a 32 or 33 in shorts and a 34 if the shorts are not cut wide and loose. I saw reviews out there that these were true to size or fit even a bit tighter. I say, maybe true if you expect a looser cut 34, otherwise, I would rate them as looser than normal.
I bought the 34, and even with my belt pulled tight, they drop down past the waist line; luckily, the crotch is cut pretty true, so you don't get that annoying bagginess and chafing on the inner thigh. I even wrote the company about sizing. They wrote back, (after I purchased) that the waist in these shorts is cut larger than the size of the shorts.... from support - "The waist measurement is �? larger than actual size stated 32 = 32.75in"
All in all, I wear them, and they are nice, but I would recommend getting the lower end of whatever size you may wear. They are loose enough, that they should fit and that respect, and customer support for the brand, even mentioned how they relax even more as you wear them throughout the day, which I agree with.
Hope that helps/makes sense! Thanks!
Great Shorts!
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
- Fit: True to size
Love these so much I just picked up another pair. I have one in brown and one in red. They are durable and have a ton of pockets. I use them for casual wear and rock climbing. The only gripe is that so many of the pockets also have inner pockets that sometimes it's hard to get my stuff out of the pockets...But hey, they look great too!
Great pair of shorts!
Always worried about buying pants/shorts online without trying on but glad I took the chance. LOVE these shorts. True to size and long just like I like! Great style, material and fit.

NAISE piece of of shorts! COMFY to the max, especially that I am from Singapore, the shorts is something that suits my personality and style!
Thanks, Backcountry.com! :D
Great, smooth material
Stoked about the material and feel!
Pockets are a bit too small for my hands, and just about most things besides a $20 and your drivers license (let your friend hold the keys).
Lots of small pockets for small things. One of the pockets inside another pocket could use a bit more stitching...the top flap needs to be secured to the shorts. Note the photo. I flipped the material out so everyone can see. Easy fix for those who know how to put sew on a button.
They shorts are great! Perfect length for all things summer.

The best marketing insight I've received in the past 5 years
Apr 15th
Over the past few years I have had the great fortune to meet and talk to some of the greatest marketing and business minds in the world. I have learned so much from them, but there is one single marketing insight from Dr. Robert Cialdini that continues to hang in my mind every single day.
Although we had this discussion in 2012, his advice seems to grow more profound to me month by month.
Dr. Cialdini is arguably the foremost academic and writer on the subject of power and influence in the world. His books include the best-selling classic Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion.
While doing research for my book Return On Influence, I asked him, "Dr. Cialdini, in this information-dense world, how does a leader stand out?"
His reply: "Be more human."
The more I have been immersed in this digital world, the more I am sure he is right.
Ultimately people will buy from who they know, who they trust. That isn't going to come from the best backlinks or the most optimized content. I think the most human content and the most human companies will win in this competitive world.
Connecting in a human way builds trust. Trust builds loyalty. And loyalty trumps everything.
As I work with diverse organizations ranging from Johnson & Johnson to the US Air Force, I keep hearing myself repeat those words over and over again. Be. More. Human.
- When you get down to it, isn't that what we cherish most of all?
- Is "being human" scalable across a large enterprise? How?
- Where is the line between being human and respecting privacy? Is this changing?
- Is "being human" a strategy? Should it be?
The idea raises a lot of questions. I am trying to discern what it means for me … for all of us in this community really.
Will the most human companies win? Will the most human blogs win? Will the most human humans win? I think so. I think that is really the killer app for an era of Content Shock.
Your thoughts?

10 Strategies to Battle Content Shock
Mar 17th
In January, I wrote a post called Content Shock which explained that we are entering a new phase in the evolution of content-based marketing. There are primarily two dynamics driving this change:
- The amount of content on the web is literally exploding. By 2020, the amount of web-based information (most of it consumer-driven) is expected to increase by 600%. Think about that for a moment. If you can imagine the vastness of the Internet today, in six years we will have six of those.
- Today an average American spends about 10 hours a day consuming content, a number that has risen steadily year by year. But there is a threshold to the amount of attention we will be able to devote to content, which will further challenge a marketer's ability to get messages through to their audience and stakeholders.
I wrote about a third factor — the development of advanced content filters — as another emerging issue that will make it harder to get our content to emerge as the signal instead of the noise.
My conclusion was that these pressures are bound to thin the herd. Content marketing as we know it will not be a sustainable strategy for some businesses, and it will become more difficult and expensive for almost all of us.
But I concluded this post with a tantalizing question …
Where do we turn to win in an era of Content Shock?
It's hard to deny these facts or the implication that in an eco-system of way too much stuff, SOMETHING is going to have to change. But what?
How do we break through this information density and win in a hyper-competitive content market?
First, I need to emphasize that the affects of this trend are going to vary wildly by industry so this is not necessarily a doom and gloom scenario or the "end of content marketing" as some have contended. I explained that in detail in a follow up post on Arguments Against Content Shock. I also explained that content shock can be seen as a positive for many consumers.
However, many businesses are already struggling with the cost and complexity of competing in a world being covered up in content. Here are brief descriptions of 10 possible strategies to break through.
1) Shock and Awe
The only sustainable content strategy is to find an unsaturated niche and overwhelm the web with so much quality content that search engines only discover you. Effectively, you are creating content shock for your competitors.
You don't necessarily have to be the best content creator if you are in this situation, but you have to be first and overwhelming. This is an uneasy fact we don't often discuss but it is true. The strategy is:
- Find an unsaturated niche.
- Produce a volume of quality, helpful material aimed at relevant platforms.
- Never stop producing content.
Dominating a niche early has extremely important long-term value because the search engines will continue to recognize and reward the authority you accrue. Great content does not rise to the top. Great content from dominant websites with an established audience rises to the top.
2) Content Partnerships
If our "pipeline" to consumers is being strangled, create new content partnerships through innovations such as:
- Brandscaping — Combining audiences by cooperating on co-branded content.
- News jacking — A term coined by David Meerman Scott, newsjacking describes a process to align your brand message with breaking news events so you ride a wave of traditional media coverage.
- Sponsored content — A range of alternatives ranging from paid news placements to paying bloggers for editorial space
- Native advertising — Techniques that embed commercial messages in the editorial copy of news and information channels.
I'm not sure how sustainable these strategies are in the long-term, and they are not without controversy. There is a danger when you cross that line and turn your content/news site into an infomercial. Still, this trend is going to heat up because traditional news sites are desperate for revenue streams and marketers need new ways to cut through the content clutter.
3. Content as social currency
There is an entire science behind associating content with self-identity of your content consumers. In other words, we consume and share content if it reinforces something about our self-identity. We choose our content like we choose the clothes we wear or the car we drive.
Here is a small example. I noticed on the web that many people I admire were watching Breaking Bad. I began to watch this show because I emotionally associate with these friends.
I posted about my progress with the show as a type of social currency to demonstrate that I am part of the cult around this television series. It was not even a conscious act but the content I consumed and shared subtly became part of my identity.
4. Atomizing content
If people don't have time for long content, can you get smaller chunks of content through the pipeline? This would explain innovations such as Vine, Pinterest and infographics.
5. Understanding and working through advanced content filters
Jeff Domansky described the current state as "a drunken frat party" of content. Every search algorithm is going to be working hard to personalize the delivery of content and advanced new filters like Zite will make it even more difficult to break through with new ideas and products.
The content marketing formula used to be pretty straight-forward: Create useful, relevant content and optimize it in every way so it shows up at the top of Google search.
That is about to become infinitely more complex. In addition to personal filters, cognitive computing platforms like Apple's Siri or IBM's Watson use content as "fuel." What does marketing look like in that environment? How do we align ourselves with these filter and produce content in forms that can be absorbed and displayed by these algorithms?
6. Eyes on entertainment
In my classes, I emphasize that a focus on consistently producing content that is RITE — Relevant, Interesting, Timely, and Entertaining — will drive the right behaviors to produce shareable content. Of these, I think the big word for the future is "entertaining." But this is not necessarily going to be easy.
Look at what Chipotle is doing to sell burritos — producing multi-million-dollar mini-movies featuring popular songs and entertainers like Coldplay. That kind of multi-million-dollar quality is not sustainable for most businesses and will hasten the exit of marginal content producers. I think this partially explains why Chipotle's leading competitor Qdoba just filed for bankruptcy, a victim of Content Shock.
7. The paid imperative
As Christopher Penn recently wrote, success in the future probably can't depend on organic reach alone — we will have to have some paid component of a content strategy.
This hand is already being played for us, isn't it? With Facebook's organic reach diminishing year by year, companies have no choice but to pay for sponsored posts that can reach a larger audience. New platforms that integrate with traditional advertising and media will be a key idea.
8. Hit 'em where they ain't
If your competitor has overwhelmed the market with blog content, try videos. If videos are saturated for your business, start a podcast. Are there alternate platforms like Slideshare, Instagram, Pinterest or Google+ where you can make a mark?
In other words, look for alternate delivery channels. Should your business be on the lookout for the next big thing?
9. Borrow a Bigger Pipeline
Most people only look at "paid media" or "earned media" but there is an increasingly powerful third alternative: Borrowed Media.
In a recent Marketing Companion podcast, my co-host Tom Webster commented that the top search results for a new shoe he was looking to buy were all blog posts. Not articles in trade magazines. Not content on the shoe company's website. Not organic news results. Blog posts.
Let that sink in.
As I wrote in my book Return On Influence (a thorough tutorial on this emerging channel), we are in the era of the Citizen Influencer where passionate, trusted experts wield an incredible amount of power over loyal audiences. Companies are now beginning to recognize this as distinct marketing channel and must develop a core competency in the art and science of influence marketing.
In the past 12 months we have seen the beginning of influence marketing departments and even boutique agencies working this niche.
10. Human Connection.
Every week I receive heart-felt messages from members of the blog community like this: "Each morning I sit down with a cup of coffee and your latest blog post. I feel like you are a friend sitting across the table from me giving me a daily marketing lesson."
I work hard to create a true connection with my readers, and it is not something I can fake. I really do care about you and I work hard to write in a way that earns your trust every day.
Connecting in a human way is what leads to that trust. Trust leads to loyalty. And I believe that loyalty trumps everything else I have written about in this blog post.
I sincerely believe that "be more human" is the killer app for Content Shock. The best way to build long-term relationships that lead to business benefits isn't going to be through backlinks, sponsored posts, or native advertising. It is going to be through authentic human connection.
Be. More. Human.
Isn't that the ultimate goal for a person, a business, or a brand? What ideas did I miss here?

Why you've already missed the hottest marketing opportunity
Feb 5th
By Eric Wittlake, {grow} Contributing Columnist
Want to take advantage of today's hot new marketing opportunity? Sorry, you've already missed the boat.
The best opportunity goes to the marketers who identify it well before it's hot, not the ones who join at the frothy peak. You won't see those initial eye-popping results today.
This trend has played out time and time again.
The first online banner ad, for AT&T, 44% click rate. Today's average click rate for an ad the same size (468×60) rounds off to a nice even 0.0%! The only 44% you are likely to find in today's banner discussion is the percentage of people with an ad blocker installed.
In 1978, Gary Thuerk sent the first unsolicited email to a whopping 400 people. The result? He successfully drove attendance to two in-person events and ultimately closed more than $10 million in sales. Today's unsolicited marketing email to 400 people wouldn't be expected to get a single webinar attendee!
Over the last 16 months, organic reach of brand posts on Facebook dropped from 26% to just 7.8%. That's 70% shaved from the results of your Facebook efforts just for getting started 16 months later!
The story is the always the same. Twitter. Online video. Google AdWords. Blogging. Infographics. Native Ads. The marketers who get in early are the ones with the headline-making results.
Find Your Opportunities
What can we learn from these and other early adopters who captured outsized returns?
- Innovate. AT&T took advantage of a brand new type of opportunity on HotWired. More recently, SAP was the first marketer to join the Forbes BrandVoice program and they are continuing to see some of the best results today.
- Know the trend setters and early adopters in your market. Just like Gary's first email blast, Pinterest delivered astounding results for early adopters. Often the best opportunities are right in front of you—you just need to see them through a marketing lens.
- Be different. Did you already miss the best opportunity? Whatever you do, don't just follow the masses! The unexpected nature of something completely new breaks through the filters we have all established for marketing. For a bit of inspiration in a stodgy B2B space, look up Maersk on Facebook. Or if you prefer, consider Red Bull's marketing.
The Lasting Advantages
The early mover advantage doesn't end there. The benefits of starting early often continue long past the point a marketing activity becomes mainstream.
- In social media, marketers that started early had a head start building an engaged audience.
- In content marketing, early adopters learned how to connect with their audience effectively (and got a head start on SEO as well).
- In online advertising, early movers found the hidden gems. Working with a B2B advertising client about 10 years ago, we helped a niche site create their online ad offering. They became one of our best performing advertising partners for years.
Do you want your share of the results that you always see in case studies but so rarely achieve? Then stop chasing the results other people are getting and start finding your own opportunities.
By the time something is broadly recognized as the next great opportunity, it's really just table stakes.
Here are some of the areas I'm watching with a marketing, not just product and marketplace, lens:
- The sharing economy.
- The Internet of things.
- The proliferation of inexpensive sensors.
- The brand new insights, segmentation, personalization and (most importantly) services this information and connectivity enables.
Today, these are becoming things we market. Soon, some will likely become ways that we market as well.
Where do you see potentially uncharted and untapped opportunity for today's innovative marketers?

Four key marketing lessons to propel us into 2014
Jan 2nd
By Kerry Gorgone, {grow} Contributing Columnist
2013 is over. What are the key marketing lessons from that year that will help propel our efforts into the New Year?
From Jay Baer's Youtility to Brian Solis's What's the Future of Business, marketing thought leaders this year have pushed marketers to create content that helps the audience and enhances the customer experience. Let's revisit some of the year's core lessons as 2014 blasts off.
1) Create marketing so helpful people would pay for it.
"As Gary Vaynerchuk has said, the problem with marketing today is that everybody wants to be a hunter and nobody wants to be farmer," author Jay Baer wrote.
"Youtility is really a book on how to farm. You have to change the way you think in the organization from, 'hey, here's coupon, buy in the next 10 minutes,' to 'hey, let us help you and you will connect those dots eventually and you will eventually reward us with attention, sales, loyalty, and advocacy,' but it takes time to do that."
Did you create helpful content and cultivate a deeper relationship with your customers this year?
2) Have real conversations, and publish them as content.
We're seeing a resurgence people's awareness of podcasts, which is driving an interest in podcasting. In part, as
The Invisible Sale author Tom Martin observes, this renewed interest is the result of mobile technology: it's easier than ever to subscribe and listen to episodes, and in part because the low barriers to entry make podcasting a great alternative for marketers serving a niche audience.
Define your audience segment and go after it. Create custom content that goes deep to add real value, the way a long conversation with a mentor makes you feel energized and ready to take action.
"I believe [digital channels] extend the physical boundaries of what a true conversation could be," explained Mitch Joel, author of Ctrl Alt Delete. "What a form of niche content can be. And I believe what we're creating falls into that category… the depth and the analysis of it."
In the 2013 book Born to Blog, authors Mark W. Schaefer and Stanford Smith propose that if you can have conversations — answer questions, teach a lesson, help somebody — you have the essential skills to create meaningful content.
3) Intentionally design the customer experience.
"If our customer is sharing experiences about the products that they have or that they're using, how can we better understand them? Not just their expectations, but how can we take those and create aspirational experiences, create the experiences we want them to have and in turn to share," asks Brian Solis in What's the Future of Business.
Offering a great product or service isn't enough. Offering helpful marketing content isn't enough. Think bigger.
Map the customer journey for your audience, from first touch to purchase and beyond. How does it look? Will their online comments reflect well on your brand when they talk about that experience? If not, it's time to make changes.
Have you really looked at the business experience through the eyes of your customers?
4) If you can go beyond being just "helpful," you should.
Inspire people with your marketing content. Surprise and delight them.
In 2013, Jason Falls pushed marketers to create content that makes their audience exclaim "Holy Smokes!" "You want to elicit a strong emotion." That's "Holy Smokes," not "hmm, that was helpful."
Ann Handley took it a step further, and issued a challenge at Content Marketing World marketers to inspire their audience, not just "address pain points" through content.
For 2014, she encourages marketers to "give your customers a gift." Ask yourself how you can delight them, the way Westjet delighted their passengers by granting their Christmas wishes.
How will you take some of these lessons to improve your marketing in the coming year?
Kerry O'Shea Gorgone teaches New Media Marketing at Full Sail University. She also hosts the weekly Marketing Smarts podcast for MarketingProfs. Find Kerry on Google+ and Twitter.

Great paper by Woloshin & Schwartz (and others) in the current Annals of Internal Medicine, "Press Releases by Academic Medical Centers: Not So Academic?"
Excerpts from the Discussion section of their paper:
Press releases issued by 20 academic medical centers frequently promoted preliminary research or inherently limited human studies without providing basic details or cautions needed to judge the meaning, relevance, or validity of the science. Our findings are consistent with those of other analyses of pharmaceutical industry and medical journal press releases, which also revealed a tendency to overstate the importance and downplay (or ignore) the limitations of research.
The quickest strategy for improvement would be for centers to issue fewer releases about preliminary research, especially unpublished scientific meeting presentations, because findings often change substantiallyor fail to hold upas studies mature. Forty percent of meeting abstracts and 25% of abstracts that garner media attention are never subsequently published as full reports in medical journals. Similarly, centers should limit releases about animal or laboratory research. Although such research is important, institutions should not imply clinical benefit when it does not exist (and may not for years, if ever): Two thirds of even highly cited animal studies fail to translate into successful human treatments.
When press releases are issued, they should include basic study facts and explicit cautions. For example, press releases should remind journalists that strong inferences cannot be drawn from uncontrolled studies, or that surrogate outcomes do not always translate into clinical outcomes. Although good press releases will probably help, quality reporting also requires good critical evaluation skills. Fortunately, journalists have opportunities to acquire these skills, through such programs as the Association of Health Care Journalists seminars; the Knight Science Journalism Medical Evidence Boot Camp at MIT; and "Medicine in the Media: The Challenge of Reporting on Medical Research," a workshop sponsored by the National Institutes of Health, the Dartmouth Institute for Health Policy and Clinical Practice, and the Department of Veterans Affairs.
Investigators can also do better. They could forgo requesting releases for studies with obvious limitations and review releases before dissemination, taking care to temper their tone (particularly their own quotes, which we often found overly enthusiastic).
By issuing fewer but better press releases, academic centers could help reduce the chance that journalists and the public are misled about the importance or implications of medical research. Centers might get less press coverage, but they would better serve their mission: to improve the health of their communities and the larger society in which they reside.

I want to use Apache pig , but till now i have just parsed formatted data like csv or comma separated etc.
But if i have some data separated by ';' & '@&@' etc , how can i work with it?
Like when I used MapReduce I split data by ";" in map and then again by "@&@" in reduce.
Also suppoes for example we have csv file with first field username which is made by "FirstnameLastname" format,
