Resolved Question: Screweddddddddddddddddddddddddd?

You might be surprised to know that one of the world's dominant shoe, sports equipment and clothing brands was aptly named after the Greek goddess of victory -- and that the inspiration for the name struck during a dream. It began in 1964 with a casual agreement and a handshake between University of Oregon track coach Bill Bowerman and Phil Knight, a middle-distance runner. The pair formed Blue Ribbon Sports and began importing Japanese brand Onitsuka Tiger running shoes, known today as ASICs, for sale in the U.S. In 1967, Knight and Bowerman made the handshake deal formal and incorporated as BRS Inc. Jeff Johnson signed on in 1965 as the company's first full-time salesperson and opened Blue Ribbon Sports' first retail outlet the following year. In 1971, Johnson made an incalculable contribution to the company: One night, he dreamed of Nike, the Greek goddess of victory, and suggested the name to his bosses. The company used the moniker for its first footwear product to feature the "Swoosh" mark -- a soccer cleat called the Nike, whose name beat out Knight's suggestion that they call it the Dimension 6. The Swoosh trademark was created by a graphic-design student from Portland State University named Carolyn Davidson. She got $35 for her creation. Expanding the Nike Brand Looking to expand the line, Bowerman began experimenting with the concept of athletic shoes with rubber spikes. By pouring a liquid rubber compound into his wife's waffle iron, Bowerman created an innovative running-shoe sole. The company unveiled Nike "Moon Shoes" featuring the Waffle sole for athletes competing at the U.S. Olympic Trials in Eugene, Ore., in 1972. A succession of shoes, many based on the waffle outsole, followed. Some of the most famous are the Waffle Racer, Air Force One and Air Max 97. When tees featuring a lower-case "nike" script logo designed by Davidson hit stores that year, folks unfamiliar with the name asked, "Who's Mike?" when they spotted the shirts. Elite Sponsors: Athletes in Nike Shoes A growing number of elite athletes competed in Nike footwear. Runner Mark Covert was the first athlete to wear Nike shoes across a finish line. Nike shoes got their first endorsement by a professional athlete when Romanian tennis personality Ilie Nastase signed on to wear Nikes on the court. In 1977, former aerospace engineer Frank Rudy teamed with Nike to create the first Air-Sole units -- durable bags filled with pressurized gas that compressed under impact, then sprang back. The result was Nike Air cushioning, which hit stores in 1979. In 1980, Nike went public. The year 1984 saw the signing of basketball megastar Michael Jordan to an endorsement contract, followed by the 1985 release of his signature shoe, the Air Jordan. Originally, the NBA banned this new shoe because it didn't match the league's dress code, but the ban simply served to give the design a higher profile and extensive publicity. Nike revenues topped $1 billion for the first time in 1986. The rest, as they say, is history. Superstar Follow-Up Nike followed up on its footwear fame by dressing athletes from head to toe, introducing apparel collections for tennis and basketball, which were popularized respectively by superstars John McEnroe and Michael Jordan. In 1988, Nike's "Just Do It" slogan was introduced, and it remains one of the most recognizable and successful commercial taglines. In 1990, the first NikeTown store opened in Portland, Ore. The company signed golfing phenom Tiger Woods in 1996. In 1999, Bill Bowerman, Nike's co-founder, died at age 88. The company bought bankrupt rival Converse for $305 million in 2003. In 2004, Phil Knight stepped down as CEO and president of Nike, but he continues as chairman. Headquartered in Beaverton, Ore., Nike remains one of the largest and most successful companies operating today. more

Voting Question: What does Emeril Lagasse have to do with toothpaste?

The famed chef from the Cooking Network is now popping up in a poorly thought out commercial for Crest toothpaste. In it he apparently is one of three judges looking for a new snappy catchphrase for said toothpaste. Guys come in one by one and offer new advertising slogans, after which Emeril offers his stiff poorly acted response. My question is, what does someone who is famous for his cooking skill have in connection with toothpaste? It seems like a bad match. I keep waiting for him to pull out a large pan and hot plate from behind that counter, throw in some ribs and spicy marinade and yell "Bam!!" Help me out, why would Crest choose a TV chef to promote their product, are we supposed to know that that's Emeril Lagasse sitting there, and why was this awful commercial ever made in the first place?But he never *says Bam! during the commercial! It that's the connection, it's too obscure for the average TV viewing American to comprehend. more

Resolved Question: can someone please read this ?

if you could read over this and give me some feed back that would be great. inform me of any gramatical errors or synonyms of frequently used words. Advertisements target every person regardless of age, sex, race, and nationality. They make billions of dollars each year getting people to buy whatever they are trying to sell. The dictionary definition of advertise has many meanings: to announce or praise (a product, service, etc.) in some public medium of communication in order to induce people to buy or use it, to give information to the public about; announce publicly in a newspaper, on radio or television, etc, to call attention to, in a boastful or ostentatious manner, to give notice, advice, or information to; inform, to admonish; warn, to ask for something by placing a notice in a newspaper, over radio or television, etc., to offer goods for sale or rent, solicit funds, etc., by means of advertisements, to bluff so as to make the bluff obvious. So in layman terms they are trying to bluff and make better what ever product they are trying to sell. Promoters use many fancy techniques that appeal to their buyers. These propaganda techniques are glittering generalities, the transfer technique, the plain folks technique, the testimonial technique, the bandwagon technique, the card stacking technique, and last but not least, the grin and spend technique. The three ads up for comparison are a Scrabble ad, a Honda Odyssey ad, and an ad for Secret Platinum deodorant. Let’s take a look at how the advertising world gets us to buy their wonderful products. Scrabble is a nice fun family game. In this ad you see no family. All you see is the back of a female with massive tattoos, with a mans arm, also covered in tattoos, holding the brown letter holder against her back. The letter holder contains the scrabble letters: S, O, T, A, T, O, T. Rearranged the letters spell, tattoos. I thought that was clever. I am not sure what tattoos have to do with playing scrabble, but maybe I am missing something. Toward the woman’s lower spine the ad reads, “Winning words are everywhere. So give the gift of SCRABBLE and enjoy the hunt!” Underneath those words to live by is the famous Scrabble logo. Even lower on the page is “U CN DO IT”, using scrabble letters. That reminds me of the Nike slogan “Just Do it”. I can see how this ad is colorful and somewhat interesting to look at. I chose this ad because the colors caught my attention. So maybe this ad was doing what it was suppose to do, capture a prospective buyer’s attention. Scrabble advertisers are guilty of three of the previously mentioned propaganda techniques: glittering generalities, transfer technique, and the plain folk technique. Glittering generalities is a technique that makes flashy promises without backing them up. This technique is style with no substance. The words “U CN DO IT” fit right in to this technique. I ask myself do what? I can do a lot of things, but I am unsure of what this ad wants me to do. Now onto the all powerful transfer technique, this is very common in magazine ads. The transferring technique puts other objects near the product as a decoy. In this ad I am not sure what tattoos, and a naked female and possible naked man have to do with scrabble. Notice all the tattoos are nicely done, that will look appealing to teenagers or maybe people in their early twenties. Tattoos are popular among these age groups. Also notice how the woman is very slender and her skin is flawless, other than the tattoos. She is not overweight or has acne, if that were the case this ad might not be as appealing. The man or what you can see of his arm is muscular and has tribal tattoos down it. I am sure if his arm was really skinny the ad would hold a different tone. The plain folk technique tries to use ordinary people to make us appeal to the product. These two people could be anyone. We can not see their faces, so they are probably not famous. They are just a couple of ordinary people covered in tattoos that possibly like to play scrabble in the nude. This ad is targeted to young, hip buyers. Scrabble is trying to put a twist in their image of being a wholesome fun family game. more

Resolved Question: Has anyone met Jack Sc.......?

Jack is the only son of Awe Schitt and O. Schitt, and he has an interesting family tree: In 1957, Awe Schitt, the fertilizer magnate, married O. Schitt, the owner of Needeep N. Schitt, Inc. They had one son, Jack. Jack Schitt grew up and married Noe, and together Jack and Noe Schitt produced 6 children: Holie Schitt (who came to be known as "The Lucky Schitt") Fulla Schitt Shineola (who didn't really have the Schitt Face) Giva Schitt Bull Schitt (who really looked like Schitt, the father), and the twins: Dip Schitt and Deap Schitt. Dip Schitt was not very bright, and was known as "The stupid Schitt", and she married Dumb Schitt, a high school drop out who happened to share the same last name (no relation, however). Friends affectionately nicknamed them "The Schitts". Their marriage produced no little Schitts. The other twin, Deap Schitt, went on to build a deodorant empire, which became famous for it's slogan: "Smell Like Schitt". Interestingly, that slogan only worked in the United States, and another slogan was more popular in the U.K.: "Put a dab of Schitt on your pits." When the company launched its product into Australia, a third slogan was used successfully: "Smell Like Schitt Down Under". But soon, trouble developed and Noe Schitt divorced Jack and promptly married a nice man named Ted Sherlock, but being a modern woman, she decided to hyphenate her name. She become known as Noe Schitt-Sherlock. Jack was depressed at losing Noe, but he, too, remarried a nice lady named Loda. The blushing bride, Loda Schitt, produced a son of nervous disposition, whom they named Chicken Schitt. Jack and Loda went on to produce two more boys, Krappy Schitt and Ugglee Schitt. These athletic brothers, Krappy and Ugglee, married the stunningly beautiful Happens Sisters in a dual ceremony. The "Schitt-Happens" Wedding was a huge affair, and this union also produced many offspring: Dawg Schitt Byrd Schitt Hoarse Schitt and Pigh Schitt But once again, Jack lost his love for his wife, and left to tour the world. He recently returned from an extended visit to Italy with his newest bride, Pisa. Presently Jack Schitt and his 3rd wife, Pisa Schitt, are living without children in New Jersey on property which contains a stream of water, now known to the locals as "Schitt Creek." (From now on, nobody can say you don't know Jack Schitt!) more

Resolved Question: How one can get people's attention?

I'm not asking for a 'catchy slogan' to sell something. I'm asking about 'human nature'. For example: Why people give easily attention to someone famous? Once somebody is famous, can go to a completely other field without needing to work for it. A famous politician can get the role of a main actor and a famous actor can go into a political career. Once one is famous one can do whatever and one will have success, even without being good. You can see it here in 'answers.yahoo': Deepak Chopra asks a question that is not especially good but there are more than thousand answers, while similar questions receive just a few. That's why companies like to make advertisements with famous people for their dubious products. If someone has an experience wanting to share this, because it would help people, but can't get their attention, because what is offered is not just on the daily attention level, what can one do to get to people so that they get interested to try out something new for them?Reading the answers it shows that I wasn't clear enough in my comment in the details. I will try again: To share an insight or an experience that could change people’s worldview and so avoid a lot of suffering or could make that suffering is used creatively, it will not help to take a bubble bath in the middle of the mall and then telling people: Hey, the earth is round and not flat! People will probably just laugh or eliminate this good-looking guy if his ‘message’ is against the established dogma. My question has nothing to do with selling. Yes, some people strive for fame to sell better, but that’s not what’s about. People reject something new and this is ‘normal’, unless one can convince them with arguments they can understand. I am talking about ways to get their attention so that they are able to listen. You say that I can’t get attention because I am ‘normal’ because I believe that I understand something better than others and so must fail to get attention without being famous.The fact is that I do understand something better, even you are not interested to know about it, because you are ‘normal’. I don’t want to become famous, this was only an example. You had a negative experience and you are stuck with it, so it is ‘normal’ that you can’t see any solution. It is not about a product, but it is the same for some truth: It can’t ‘stand by itself’ if it is not known. “…those who have made significant contributions to mankind, and of lasting value have never been after such 'attention' or recognition of any sort!” I doubt this. All those who had a significant impact to mankind could only do so because they fulfilled a need or at least promised it and so they got the intention of people. Wasn’t Jesus talking to gathered people? Probably he didn’t get the intention he wanted. He traveled for a long time, how many listened to him? Yes, a few followed him and the rest ignored him, but then he provoked or at least allowed something spectacular, being crucified...“If it happens to contradict the mass expectation of a pattern of behavior would severely backfire and the mass public would just bring down that person from that high 'pedestal'!” Was this what happened with Jesus? I don’t compare myself with Jesus; this is just an example that has to do with attention. “You gotta stand out in one way or another, you have to be gifted.” Really? One can stand out or be gifted and nobody will care or give attention. Example: An artist in need of money called at doors to sell his drawings, these were very good but nobody wanted them, even he only ask for little money. He tried for long and got so frustrated that one day when somebody was extremely nasty, he killed this person. When he became ‘famous’ because of this, he sold his drawings for a very high price. Obviously to be gifted is not enough, people can’t recognize it out of their own judgment, they want to be told by somebody they know and believe because this one is ‘famous’ and so an authority.It doesn’t bother me at all that one guy gets more answers. What interest me are the phenomena in human nature and I am searching for something to use it in a positive way for the benefit of all. Yes, because of this I ask myself and I ask you. I am not insecure about myself just about a possible action. Thank you all for your attention so far... more
