Healing the Heart of Democracy: The Courage to Create a Politics Worthy of the Human Spirit
Healing the Heart of Democracy: The Courage to Create a Politics Worthy of the Human Spirit
At this critical moment in American life, Parker J. Palmer looks with realism and hope at how to deal with our political tensions for the sake of the common good. Building on his decades of social activism and inner life exploration, Palmer examines ways to restore the invisible infrastructure of American politics. What he did for educators in The Courage to Teach he does here for citizens by seeking answers to democracy's dilemmas within us and between us. He points the way to a politics rooted in the commonwealth of creativity and courage still found among "We the People." "Democracy...," writes Palmer, "is a nonstop experiment in the strength and weakness of our political institutions, our local communities and associations, and the human heart " The democratic experiment is endless, unless we blow up the lab, and the explosives to do the job are found within us. But so also is the heart's alchemy that can turn suffering into community, conflict into the energy of creativity, and tension into an opening toward the common good." Palmer names the "habits of the heart" we need to revitalize our politics and shows how they can be formed in the everyday venues of our lives. He proposes practical, promising ways to hold the tensions of our differences for the sake of restoring a government "of the people, by the people, for the people."

Coca-Cola 1978
Coca-Cola 1978
Coca-Cola Commercial 1978 - Coke Adds Life In May 1976, The Coca-Cola Company introduced a new Coke ad campaign, touting the brand as the soft drink for all occasions. Aimed at the young and young-at-heart, the new campaign, "Coke Adds Life to ...," was designed to show viewers that Coca-Cola added simple enjoyment to life. The campaign itself was hardly simple. Development of "Coke Adds Life to ..." began in 1973 with consumer research studies and lasted three years. The campaign's creative team came up with nearly a hundred copy lines, different ways of conveying what they wished to communicate as the basic promise of Coca-Cola. The group then talked to young people to get their reaction to the lines. The researchers from Coca-Cola and McCann-Erickson found that the lines "Coke adds a little life" or "Coke adds life" resonated with the public. "Coke Adds Life" emphasized refreshment and tried to show Coke as the perfect accompaniment to food, fun, and leisure. The campaign highlighted the soft drink's role in many situations common to consumers around the globe, and the campaign's theme was adapted to appeal to a worldwide audience. While Coca-Cola often produced advertising in the United States that was adapted for international use, in 1978 the company adapted two overseas "Coke Adds Life" spots—from Italy and Brazil—for US audiences. The Italian ad, "Flirting," follows the attempts of a young man to meet the one who will be his special girl. The viewer also sees the <b>...</b>

★ Installment Loan Company Helped Me To Become Credit Worthy
★ Installment Loan Company Helped Me To Become Credit Worthy
www.AssociationForInstallmentLending.org The Foundation for Safe and Responsible Lending Consumer installment loans, long considered the foundation for safe and responsible lending, are in vogue again. This proven money management practice for personal debt is based on sound financial principles and good insight into human nature. Personal installment loans are a transparent, affordable and disciplined form of credit which helps consumers meet important economic needs. In critical circumstances, these loans also help smooth out income fluctuations and disruptions from unexpected events like car repairs or medical expenses. An installment loan provides a properly structured and timely repayment schedule based on an individual's actual ability to pay. It also inherently creates the satisfaction associated with achieving important financial goals through the practice of personal responsibility. Protecting Consumer Access to Responsible Credit Consumers Making Good Decisions for the Right Reasons The Same As It Was Over 100 Years Ago With traditional installment loans, the process today is the same as it was over 100 years ago. The industry provides high quality loans in a strongly regulated marketplace with all appropriate consumer protections—without having to rely on taxpayer subsidies. Clearly, it is imperative to keep a healthy, diversified private enterprise consumer loan industry available in this country. When lending is available through private enterprise, we <b>...</b>

Consumer Advice: Fallout New Vegas: Ultimate Edition
Consumer Advice: Fallout New Vegas: Ultimate Edition
STAY AWAY FROM THIS GAME! If you want to play the New Vegas DLCs, then just buy the DLCs separate. It costs more but trust me, it's worth it. The DLCs are worthy of play-throughs. Anyway here is what is happening. Players who bought FNV:UE are experiencing lag and hard lock-up issues. While all Fallout console games have been known for this, this most recent PS3 release has gotten ridiculous. Frame rates are often 1FPS or lower and the whole PS3 is affected, as basic functions such as the XMB in game menu cannot be accessed. The worst part is that Obsidian REFUSES to fix this problem despite KNOWING FULL WELL THAT THE PROBLEM EXISTS!! Basically it would seem Obsidian is being a bunch of pussies because they didn't get their "METACRITIC bonus". Now they are throwing a temper-tantrum and refuse to fix the latest release. That's pretty shitty Obsidian. If you are an employee of Obsidian you should be ashamed of this bullshit. You can read about the metacritic bonus here: www.joystiq.com

Rep. Scott Garrett on Consumer Financial Protection at Financial Services Hearing 072409
Rep. Scott Garrett on Consumer Financial Protection at Financial Services Hearing 072409
Chairman Frank has been critical of the banking industry for opposing the Administrations plan for a new CFPA. But industry is not the only ones with doubts about the proposal. Today we will hear from those responsible for protecting the safety and soundness of the banking industry. Most, if not all, of them have also expressed concerns to one degree or another about the CFPA proposal. In fact, Chairman Bernanke testified to this committee earlier this week in opposition to the new agency. Maybe to some, the idea of creating an entirely new federal bureaucracy with dubious benefits to society sounds like a political winner, but I am pleased that the markup of this legislation originally scheduled for next week has been postponed indefinitely, because its clear that the more people concentrate on the consequences of this idea, the less they like it. As Chairman Frank said on Tuesday, This is worthy of an actual debate. I agree the more we engage in an actual debate on the facts of this proposal, the better. And the more time we have to study it the better, so as not to rush through a bad idea that will limit consumer choice and credit availability, encourage and increase costly and unnecessary litigation, and potentially decrease the safety and soundness of our banking system all in the name of so-called consumer protection.

Brands & Innovation—Spreading Stories to Create Value with Wendy Clark, The Coca Cola Company
Brands & Innovation—Spreading Stories to Create Value with Wendy Clark, The Coca Cola Company
Too often, brands lean away from innovation and risk-taking. But now more than ever, brands, companies and customers must come together in a mutually accountable ecosystem of spreading good, relevant, useful, impactful and desirable content— brand stories that are share worthy. New technologies and forms of consumer engagement let us spread new brand stories to unprecedented numbers of consumers in real-time. Done well, these stories spread to create brand love and brand value for our brands and companies. And, at their best, they create new value for the world. But there are also challenges: How can we distinguish good content from merely more content? How do we tell the difference between tomorrow's high-risk, high-reward technology and this week's shiny object? In this morning's keynote address, Wendy Clark, Head of Integrated Marketing Communications for The Coca-Cola Company, will discuss how Coca-Cola is leaning into evolved consumer engagement with their "Liquid and Linked" communications strategy. She'll be joined onstage by Renny Gleeson—Co-Founder of the Portland Incubator Experiment (PIE) and Head of Interactive Strategy for Wieden + Kennedy. Together, they'll discuss how Coca-Cola, PIE and W+K collaborate to fuel innovation in consumer engagement and beyond.

Fox Canada's Avatar DVD Launch Media Campaign
Fox Canada's Avatar DVD Launch Media Campaign
Business Challenge Our challenge? No small feat! Not only did we have to build on Avatar's massive box office success, but we had to re-ignite interest, trigger consumer action and develop a multi-platform Home Entertainment campaign worthy of the biggest movie of all time! Insight and Strategy To engage a target already well-aware of the movie, we needed to shift consumer thinking from 'must see' to 'must own now'. The DVD launch had to be newsworthy, create a sense of urgency and be impossible to ignore. We needed to create reach but also a heightened sense of anticipation and buzz to help signal a momentous event and generate mass response. Innovative Media Execution The centerpiece of the campaign was a breathtaking domination of Union Station in Toronto, Canada's biggest train station and transfer hub. It featured a 20-foot, 3D recreation of Avatar's "Home Tree", full-scale versions of the main Avatar characters, large-scale decals on walls, pillars, floors, doors, and digital screens with film footage. To drive urgency, we ran customized 15-second countdown spots for 10 days leading up to the release on key sports/sci-fi/entertainment broadcast properties. Countdowns were capped off with a ground-breaking, one-minute opening to the NHL Playoffs, the nation's biggest sports spectacle, featuring Avatar/NHL integrated content and airing on the eve of the DVD's release. Salience and word-of-mouth were propelled by a unique digital plan, which intercepted consumers in <b>...</b>

"Consume Me Now" by Worth Dying For. This is my favorite song from their first CD. I gave the video a fiery theme to try and capture the feeling of desperation and a sense of passion for God. Without Him, we are nothing. (note: The pictures of the mountains towards the end were taken by me on a hike up to the Peaks of Otter. Most of the other pictures were found on the web.)
