Designed and built by Holden Australia, the Pontiac G8 made its debut in Canada in 2008 as a 2009 model, but only lasted two seasons.
Manufactured in Melbourne, and sold Down Under as the Commodore, it was a decent-looking car with above-average handling and performance and a European flavour. It could be had with either a V-6 or V-8 engine and was rear-wheel-drive, which gave it a leg up over some of its competitors, if you were an enthusiast.
The base V-6 model came with a five-speed automatic transmission only while the V-8 could be had with either a six-speed manual or six-speed automatic and came in two performance levels. The V-6 version featured lively performance, but couldn't hold a candle to the V-8, which, in the limited-production GXP model, could rocket from 0 to 100 km/h in less than five seconds. This made it a true high-performance sedan – pity it wasn't around long enough to prove itself, as Pontiac ceased to exist by 2010. One interesting side-note: when GM declared Chapter 11 bankruptcy, company vice-chairman Bob Lutz announced that the G8 might return as a Chevy Caprice. It didn't.
Equipment level was right up there. Cruise control, XM satellite radio, steering-wheel controls for the stereo system and various other functions, tilt/telescoping steering, power outside mirrors and an outdated driver information centre located above the radio were all standard. One little idiosyncrasy: the power window and door lock controls were located on the floor console behind the shift lever, rather than on the doors, which took a little getting used to.
Safety equipment included four wheel disc brakes with ABS, a traction control system, GM's Stabilitrak stability control system, and front, side, and roof-mounted airbags. Trunk space was a generous 496 litres, which was slightly roomier than the 450 litres of the Hyundai Genesis. The Toyota Avalon, another direct rival, provided 407 litres.
You could also order the Preferred Equipment Group, which included a power sunroof, dual zone climate control, upgraded stereo, leather upholstery and heated front seats.
Two safety recalls from Transport Canada to report. One concerns a possibly flawed airbag sensor that could fail to activate with the passenger front seat in the full forward position. The other involves a potentially glitchy brake light switch that could malfunction and leave the brake lights permanently on. Both of these recalls affect all editions of the G8.
To this we can add a minor recall from the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration for a possibly flawed tire monitor warning system. This is tied into the brake light glitch and is easily handled by dealers.
An unhealthy 50 technical service bulletins are on file with NHTSA, and there isn't much they don't cover. For example: possible "slipping" issues in Reverse and Third gear with the automatic transmission, intermittent engine "fluttering," a wonky HVAC system that may get stuck in one mode or another, a "boom or moan" noise at highway speeds, and various electrical gremlins. In other words, there are plenty of issues to deal with here.
Consumer Reports was on the fence with this one. While it appreciated the G8's European flavour, performance capabilities and interior accommodations, it had issues with the fuel system, suspension and V-8 engine. The best it can come up with is an "average" used car prediction. Some comments from owners: "Runs like a bullet from a gun," "This is the best-handling car I have owned since my Mini," "GM's best car in 25 years, by far" and "This is a true M5/E-Class killer."
Market research firm J.D. Power, while it loved the performance of the G8, was clearly unhappy with everything else. It received a failing grade for overall quality when it was new, and fell short in terms of powertrain quality, mechanical quality, and features and accessories quality.
These days, you can get one of these potent but unreliable road warriors for anywhere from the low to high teens. The V-8 GT model is priced $3,000-$4,000 higher than the base V-6 2009 Pontiac G8.

Don't shoot the cook
Chilaquiles and cochinita in downtown San Diego
Barbarella Fokos 3:47 p.m., June 26
On November 7 at about 9:30 p.m., a customer broke the glass on the front door of the Circle K store on the corner of Shadowridge Drive and Watson Way in Vista.
According to a clerk who was present at the time, the customer was angry because he couldn't pay for beer with a $100 bill.
"He socked the door and left," the clerk said, "but we got his license-plate number and the sheriff's department is looking for him."
The clerk said he drops bills into a time-locked safe under the cash register and he didn't have enough money left in the drawer to give the customer change.
On November 9, a second clerk said that the same customer had returned to the store that day to make a purchase.
"We didn't do anything," she said. "We're going to let the law get him."

Lummi Island, WA
Lummi is not one of the more celebrated of the San Juan Islands. The rich and famous don't have second homes here, and the island's visitors sleep in only a handful of places. The main pastimes are visiting farms and art studios and tooling around the perimeter road on foot or by bike, taking in views of Puget Sound on one side and Mt. Baker on the other. But the best part is the strong locavore scene, with restaurants capitalizing on this little land of blackberries, just-plucked salad greens, and sustainable salmon.

1994 Concours Suspension Solution
Ok Its time to fix my suspension on the 1994 concours w/ FE1 suspension
setup. Its been bad for over a year, the front struts are gone and the rears
have holes in the rubber!! Im not even thinking of boston cuz if heard too
many bad things of them. Of course Im not ganna pay $1000 for each strut
so I think I have a solution. I want the air ride so I'm planning on buying
Arnott Rear air shocks/struts. And strutmasters Front Struts whick comes w/
the springs. My front driver-side Ride height sensor is bad, I had it checked
out and I was told it could be a wire cuz the sensor & the electric box in the
truck are fine. So thats why I dont wanna go with arnott's front struts &
because you have to buy the springs cuz arnott doesn't sell the front struts
w/ springs. I'm trying to get the smoothest suspension all for under $1000.
Plus I'm probably going to buy the Goodyear Comfortread tires for more
smoothness. What do you all think??

Re: 1994 Concours Suspension Solution
Did you ever do your conversion. I put the Arnott rear shocks on my 2004 Seville, my fronts seem to be ok so far, and am very happy with the ride, although it has only been 3 weeks.
Re: 1994 Concours Suspension Solution
I just rejoined the Cadillac forums since I sold that piece of junk concours that I threw all my money at and it still rode like a brick. I was sure I was done with Cadillacs after that but I just bought an "06 DTS with an offer I couldn't refuse. I did use ALL AcDelco parts on the concours and arnott struts but the ride was still VERY STIFF and horrible, a regular car with springs felt smoother.

By Chris Harris
Arsène Wenger insists his players did not treat Wigan Athletic lightly on Monday night.
Roberto Martinez's side raced into a two-goal lead at Emirates Stadium before Thomas Vermaelen reduced Arsenal's arrears. Wigan were on the back foot for much of the second half but held on for a surprise 2-1 win.
The result leaves Arsenal five points clear of Tottenham and Newcastle having played a game more. Chelsea are a further two points adrift with a game in hand and their trip to north London on Saturday now takes on extra significance.
"Of course, we knew it anyway that the Chelsea game would be massive," Wenger told Arsenal Player. "It is even more important now.
"It's a shame, it's a defeat that is very difficult to swallow because we have done so well in the last two months. Everybody is deeply disappointed.
"I wouldn't put it down to complacency, I just think the way we defended the first two goals was not acceptable. I was still confident at 2-1 especially but unfortunately in the second half we did not have a lot to offer.
"We have given a lot recently and we were not sharp. We played with Walcott, Chamberlain, Van Persie, Gervinho and Rosicky so you couldn't put more strikers on the pitch."

WASHINGTON -- Odalis Perez liked his chances after the Washington Nationals raced out to an early lead Friday night.
Perez pitched into the eighth inning to earn his first home win and Washington ended a nine-game losing streak with a 5-2 victory over the Cincinnati Reds on Friday night.
"If I see five runs in the first two innings, I have a 90 percent chance to win the game," Perez said.
The matchup featured two struggling teams that made dramatic changes to their rosters this week.
It was Cincinnati's first game since it traded outfielder Ken Griffey Jr. to the Chicago White Sox on Thursday. Reliever Nick Masset, one of two players acquired by the Reds in the deal, allowed one hit in three scoreless innings.
Perez was backed by the majors' youngest team. After Thursday's release of 36-year-old catcher Paul Lo Duca, the Nationals sported a roster with an average age of 27 years, 197 days.
Washington also had a new double play combination: second baseman Emilio Bonifacio, just recalled from Triple-A Columbus and shortstop Alberto Gonzalez, acquired Thursday from the New York Yankees.
Perez made it easy for them, winning for just the fourth time in 20 starts. He allowed one run and three hits over 7 1/3 innings in his longest start since he pitched eight innings for the Los Angeles Dodgers against the Philadelphia Phillies on Aug. 11, 2005.
"When I came out after the seventh inning, I thought 'I'm done,"' Perez said.
Washington manager Manny Acta thought otherwise, and sent Perez back out for the eighth. The left-hander allowed a triple to Jolbert Cabrera before Saul Rivera entered and got out of the jam, retiring Jerry Hairston Jr. on a comebacker before striking out Jeff Keppinger to end the inning.
Joel Hanrahan worked the ninth, allowing a home run to Jay Bruce.
Perez (4-8) also allowed a leadoff double to Keppinger in the fourth and a fifth-inning single to Andy Phillips.
"He was pitching smart. Getting us to chase -- getting me to chase pitches that I couldn't drive," Bruce said. "He's a veteran guy and he really knows how to pitch."
Bonifacio and Gonzalez both played well in their first game with the Nationals. Bonifacio went 1-for-4, scored a run and swiped a base, and Gonzalez doubled, scored a run and walked twice. They also combined on a nifty inning-ending double play in the seventh.
"You saw athleticism in turning a double play that I didn't think was going to be turned," Acta said.
Homer Bailey (0-5) lasted just two innings for Cincinnati, allowing five runs and seven hits. The Reds have lost six of seven.
"I was damn near putting it on a tee for them," Bailey said. "What doesn't kill you makes you stronger, as long as they don't cut your arms off -- and they're still attached."
Jesus Flores hit a two-run single in the first, and Washington added three more in the second. Bonifacio had an RBI single and Elijah Dukes doubled in two runs.
Dukes went 2-for-4 with two RBI in his first action since missing 19 games with an injured right knee.
"I'm just fortunate in being a quick healer," Dukes said. "If I didn't hit that double, Odalis would have stepped it up and probably giving up no hits."
Keppinger scored on Brandon Phillips' fourth-inning groundout for the Reds' first run.

This is like comparing RISC and Riskybusiness. If RISC was a registered trademark, would a company called Riskybusiness be prevented from selling microprocessor based products; because RISC sounds like Risk? One is clearly an acronym. So anytime someone trademarks an acronym, no one can ever use a word that "sounds the same"? One thing I'm confused by, is this SUN or some spin-off of SUN? Do they really need the public embarrassment of picking on a small company like Sparkfun? Have they become that irrelevant in their industry that they fell the need to do this?
No public wish lists :(

So, I'm checking in with Daddy-o yesterday, before talking to my sweet kiddos, and as he assures me, "Everything is going just fine," I hear Honorée pipe up from the back seat:
"What about Nathaniel swallowed the marble?"
"Oh, yeah! Nathaniel swallowed a marble."
"He did?"
"Yes, he seems okay." They tried to connect with their host's pediatrician contact, but I guess the Dr. would not advise without face time. And they're on this camping road trip…
"You have to go through his poop until you find it."
"Yeah, that's what we're going to do."
One good thing about having to poop in the woods…easier to examine le merde.
Now as I write, I'm wondering if the effing marble was in fact glass. What if it's a metal one? Breathe. I just assumed it was glass because marbles are glass…but…I will call when it's not 6:45 am Pacific time. No, I am not going to wait, this is not the time for respecting convention.
Okay, I called and his mailbox is full (for the first time ever). So I texted him. Marbles are glass. If they're metal they're something else. Metal balls. Ball bearings. Something else.
* * *
And now back to our regularly scheduled programming, which is not The Worrywart's Aria.
Cleansing breath.
Speaking of arias, Laura and I walked out of an opera last night up at Santa Fe Opera. Now, I am not an opera buff by any means…I just love it the way any good former high school theater geek would…for the spectacle, the production values in action, and because my ears experience orgasmic pleasure from beautiful music of any kind. Yes, any kind…
Plus I love to dress up and Santa Fe doesn't offer many reasons to do so. SF is very casual (which I love), but I hail from New York, where there are more reasons to dress up than you can shake a stiletto at. Because I am an Earth-shoe-wearing woman at heart, I love Santa Fe's supremely laid back deal, but I also thrill at the idea of the occasional "In Full Effect" gussying up.
It was one of those weird nights. Laura left her house early but got caught in two complete hoser traffic jams that even made it onto the Google traffic page. We had gotten tix for a pre-performance mingle with really good food, wine and chocolate, but missed that and just made it in time to wolf down a sammie each before curtain. We sat down, got chided by a young gent in a striped serape (the unfortunate opera staff signifier–methinks occasional resident Tom Ford needs to redesign that) for pulling out the camera to document it all…
and then, in a nutshell, we experienced the first act, and it wasn't our cup of tea (such a dirge, so bleak and mono-tonal), and we skedaddled. So you wonder: was all that traffic a big signifier that we should have just stayed home and rented a movie? But then we would have always wondered…
We walked toward the exit and a nice staffer asked if we wanted a ride to the lower parking lot. My pinched toes took the floor and said "Oh, yes, MA'AM." It comforted me to converse with two other couples, both lifelong opera buffs, who were just like, "What was that?" "I've never walked out of an opera in my life!" said the most senior woman.
Laura and I jumped in the car, and went to La Boca, where we shook it off with the help of a glass of wine each, some roasted figs, and the best homemade pasta/chicken/mushroom thing I have ever tasted. Here's what I gathered:
Pasta, homemade, pappardelle, a bit thicker than you would expect, finished in the sauce…which was:
red wine and chicken stock, cooked down (maybe thickened with a touch of cornstarch?), then they threw in some small bits of grilled chicken, sauteed portobello slices, a braised bitter green, paper-thin garlic, salt, pepper…mmmm. Yum! We salvaged the night.
* * *
Yesterday, we went to the farmer's market and got beautiful eggs with white, tan and pale blue shells. Plus lettuce, heirloom tomatoes, fava beans, ground beef, chicken, garlic, onion.
Best of all: a pie from Crumpackers…apricot blackberry! Best pie I ever tasted (sorry, mom!). Thick, cookie-like double crust (probably some kind of whole grain flour in there). The clarion-fresh apricot and blackberry filling: melded into one other perfect tart yet sweet flavor. They used some really elegant thickener within, maybe apple pectin, which held everything together at room temperature but did not in any way give it a gummy characteristic. Turbinado sugar sprinkled on the top crust, slightly caramelized. Generous, extravagantly wavy thick crust edge…When I ate the top crust by itself, it tasted like a linzer tart-kind of cookie. A whole bite delivered perfect pie bliss. I want to try to make it somehow. I've been goosed by its goodness.
Thanks for listening to me natter on while I try not to get extremely worried about Mr. Boy.
Now it's a decent hour and I will call Peter (over and over, if needed). I need to know whether the marble has been sifted out of Nathaniel's poo, and also what the heck material it is.

NORFOLK, Va. -- Becca Wann returned to the Spiders in impressive fashion, accounting for the game's two scores in Richmond's 2-0 win over Old Dominion Friday night in Norfolk.
Wann missed the first month of the Spider season competing in the 2012 FIFA World Cup as a member of the U-20 Women's National Team in Japan (USA won gold last Saturday).
Wann scored her first goal of the season by way of her signature header off a corner kick in the game's 17th minute. Two minutes later, she struck again when she tapped in a deflection from a Kristen Lybert assist.
That was all the insurance the Spiders would need as they held ODU to an 11-2 shot margin in the first frame. The Lady Monarchs only recorded five shots in the second frame.
Richmond won the shot margin, 18-7, led by Lybert's six attempts. Wann led the pack with four shots on goal. Lybert and Crystal Koczot recorded assists.
The Spiders won corner kicks, 6-3, and Andrea Young recorded five saves in goal.
Richmond returns to action Saturday, Sept. 22 at Robins Stadium against American. First kick is slated for 7 p.m.

I think the game will be made, but it will be close. My guess is Full Control will put in some last minute money if needed since they've hinted at spending their own money in addition to KS, anyway.
It's just too bad that they didn't seem as prepared as they should have been when they launched. They missed a lot of early money that would have gone to a bigger, better game.

CeBIT ends today and as you may have noticed the world has already moved onto other things. In a way this is a sentiment which sums up the current state of Europe's biggest technology show: much fanfare, some good stories, quickly forgotten.
nVidia, Pioneer, BenQ, HP/Compaq, Lenovo, VIA, Shuttle, Kingston, rock and Sure were just some of the companies who chose not to set up stands at CeBIT 2007 and with Hall 18 and the entire pavilion unused there was conspicuous empty space in Hannover this year. Even our much loved press taxi service has seen cars cut by 50 per cent, a fact my feet spotted long before a driver confirmed my fears.
That said, CeBIT still represents a kind of technological nirvana. It remains the crowning European event where punters can mingle with companies and get a proper hands-on feel for the equipment they want to buy.
This is an important last sentence however: 'the equipment they want to buy' and it may be apparent that most of the announcements made this year have been around affordable GPS systems, notebooks, monitors and midrange mobiles. Sure, the odd ludicrous 205in TV turned up but in general products were practical rather than exorbitant.
I would suggest there are a number of reasons for this. Firstly, as I suggested in my preview high definition multimedia equipment is in its second generation – bringing down prices and trying to appeal to the mass market. Secondly, with a medium sized stand costing around £1m companies are determined to see a return in these profit warning times, so while a 108in LCD catches the eye, it doesn't sell. Thirdly, the format of the show itself is in gradual decline as companies don't want to stand toe-to-toe with one another but rather spend money to host their own events.
All of which would explain why announcements like Samsung's Q1 Ultra and Asus' new notebooks were the stars of the show and Panasonic thought it could get away with re-announcing the 42in 1080p plasma already demoed at CES. Ground breaking announcements? There were none and the fact that Philips' Ambilight Speakers were my favourite thing at the show speaks volumes.
So what can we take from CeBIT 2007? Well, technology is certainly in a period of evolution rather than revolution. High Definition – particularly 1080p – is filtering down the food chain with image quality the main focus, not new sizes and standards. Mobiles mostly contain the features seen in handsets 12 months ago but in slimmer more consumer-friendly form factors and UMPCs may not be a complete waste of space altogether.
The growing feeling is that Blu-ray may edge out HD DVD but that no one will care much because of the move towards dual format players and streaming media. Meanwhile laptops and desktops finally strive for decent integrated graphics thanks to Vista and there is a new buzz about being environmentally friendly in both their construction materials and power consumption.
CeBIT 2008? Simple really: further price drops, say... £600 for a 1080p 37in LCD, HD players from £200/£250, 5MP camera phones, 10-15mm thick smartphones, laptops with five hours battery life (in Vista), UMPCs properly hitting the mass market and possibly – since we'll have all become so comfortable – the first talk about moving to new standards (eg: Windows Vienna, going beyond 1080p, HSUPA and the phrase 'recyclable'). As for the show itself, companies will continue to drop out, announcements will become increasingly low end and question marks will be raised about CeBIT's future.
Personally, I can't see the death of CeBIT for a while... for one, there is currently no decent alternative and two, my feet aren't that lucky!

Joukowsky transform
|This article includes a list of references, but its sources remain unclear because it has insufficient inline citations. (May 2017) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
In applied mathematics, the Joukowsky transform, named after Nikolai Zhukovsky, is a conformal map historically used to understand some principles of airfoil design.
The transform is
where is a complex variable in the new space and is a complex variable in the original space. This transform is also called the Joukowsky transformation, the Joukowski transform, the Zhukovsky transform and other variations.
In aerodynamics, the transform is used to solve for the two-dimensional potential flow around a class of airfoils known as Joukowsky airfoils. A Joukowsky airfoil is generated in the complex plane (-plane by applying the Joukowsky transform to a circle in the -plane. The coordinates of the centre of the circle are variables, and varying them modifies the shape of the resulting airfoil. The circle encloses the point (where the derivative is zero) and intersects the point This can be achieved for any allowable centre position by varying the radius of the circle.
Joukowsky airfoils have a cusp at their trailing edge. A closely related conformal mapping, the Kármán–Trefftz transform, generates the much broader class of Kármán–Trefftz airfoils by controlling the trailing edge angle. When a trailing edge angle of zero is specified, the Kármán–Trefftz transform reduces to the Joukowsky transform.
General Joukowsky transform[edit]
The Joukowsky transform of any complex number to is as follows:
So the real () and imaginary () components are:
Sample Joukowsky airfoil[edit]
The transformation of all complex numbers on the unit circle is a special case.
So the real component becomes and the imaginary component becomes .
Thus the complex unit circle maps to a flat plate on the real-number line from −2 to +2.
Transformation from other circles make a wide range of airfoil shapes.
Velocity field and circulation for the Joukowsky airfoil[edit]
The solution to potential flow around a circular cylinder is analytic and well known. It is the superposition of uniform flow, a doublet, and a vortex.
The complex conjugate velocity around the circle in the -plane is
- is the complex coordinate of the centre of the circle
- is the freestream velocity of the fluid
- is the angle of attack of the airfoil with respect to the freestream flow
- is the radius of the circle, calculated using
- is the circulation, found using the Kutta condition, which reduces in this case to
The complex velocity around the airfoil in the -plane is, according to the rules of conformal mapping and using the Joukowsky transformation:
Here with and the velocity components in the and directions, respectively ( with and real-valued). From this velocity, other properties of interest of the flow, such as the coefficient of pressure or lift can be calculated.
A Joukowsky airfoil has a cusp at the trailing edge.
The transformation is named after Russian scientist Nikolai Zhukovsky. His name has historically been romanized in a number of ways, thus the variation in spelling of the transform.
Kármán–Trefftz transform[edit]
The Kármán–Trefftz transform is a conformal map closely related to the Joukowsky transform. While a Joukowsky airfoil has a cusped trailing edge, a Kármán–Trefftz airfoil—which is the result of the transform of a circle in the -plane to the physical -plane, analogue to the definition of the Joukowsky airfoil—has a non-zero angle at the trailing edge, between the upper and lower airfoil surface. The Kármán–Trefftz transform therefore requires an additional parameter: the trailing-edge angle This transform is equal to:[1]
with slightly smaller than 2. The angle between the tangents of the upper and lower airfoil surface, at the trailing edge is related to by:[1]
The derivative , required to compute the velocity field, is equal to:
First, add and subtract two from the Joukowsky transform, as given above:
Dividing the left and right hand sides gives:
The right hand side contains (as a factor) the simple second-power law from potential flow theory, applied at the trailing edge near From conformal mapping theory this quadratic map is known to change a half plane in the -space into potential flow around a semi-infinite straight line. Further, values of the power less than two will result in flow around a finite angle. So, by changing the power in the Joukowsky transform—to a value slightly less than two—the result is a finite angle instead of a cusp. Replacing 2 by in the previous equation gives:[1]
which is the Kármán–Trefftz transform. Solving for gives it in the form of equation (A).
Symmetrical Joukowsky airfoils[edit]
In 1943 Hsue-shen Tsien published a transform of a circle of radius into a symmetrical airfoil that depends on parameter and angle of inclination [2]
The parameter yields a flat plate when zero, and a circle when infinite; thus it corresponds to the thickness of the airfoil.

Kaspars Daugavins' first career NHL goal stood as the game winner as the Ottawa Senators extended their winning streak to six games with a 3-2 triumph over the visiting Toronto Maple Leafs on Sunday night.
Daugavins' floater 7:08 into the third period somehow slipped past Jonas Gustavsson from the top of the right circle, giving the Senators a 3-1 lead.
Clarke MacArthur's second goal of the game trimmed the deficit just two minutes later, but Toronto couldn't convert the equalizer as it fell in regulation for just the third time in 11 games.
Robin Lehner preserved the victory with a 23-save performance as Ottawa extended its longest winning streak in two years.
Toronto counterpart Gustavsson stopped 27 shots in defeat.
After MacArthur and Ottawa's Colin Greening traded first-period goals, the Senators surged ahead at 7:59 of the second. Erik Karlsson blasted a one-timer from just inside the blue line that Chris Neil deflected past Gustavsson.

For a company that has perked up the sex lives of thousands of couples, the fact Pfizer's revised proposal to AstraZeneca today had a far from tumescent effect on its share price might be viewed as a surprise.
It shouldn't be. A long history of takeovers means the Viagra maker is expert in the art of corporate foreplay.
After touring City shareholders earlier this week, boss Ian Read was left in no doubt that he would have to offer north of £50 a share, as well as increasing the cash portion of any bid, to guarantee success.
That today's improved terms add up to £50 and no more indicates that this was never intended to be Pfizer's final strike.
The offer is enough to get AstraZeneca's board thinking, though, with chairman Leif Johansson so far cleverly walking the line between fiduciary duty and broader concerns.
Shareholders are certainly aroused. Something in the region of £55 should get AstraZeneca to the table, with consummation in sight.
Before that moment, Pfizer's laundry list of pledges to Britain should be rigorously assessed. Read says he regards the company's partnership with the Government as "a critical part of this potential transaction".
David Cameron should use that leverage in full.Reuse content

Unilever's Global Campaign To Promote Corporate Identity And Transparency
The company wants to boost consumer interest and understanding and promote the diversity of its brands.
Unilever is going to start a global campaign in September to build a better relationship between consumers and its brands, and will highlight its sustainability. The campaign will take place across digital and print media, with the tagline "Small actions. Big difference." The company plans to increase sales while reducing their impact on the environment.
Unilever hopes the campaign, which will feature its logo prominently, will result in consumers having a better understanding of its brands, as many are currently unaware which products it owns. Its many food, personal care and home care brands include Flora, Slim-Fast, Dove, Vaseline, Domestos and Surf.
