Pass the Buck
Walmart is streamlining ads to match the modern technology trends by “brand marketing.” Rolling out their new campaign in IL, its executives unveiled a plan to incorporate the web into print. Major brands will supply how to videos, recopies and pointers that will be in beaded into the ads. Customer would simply use their smart phone to look up more info on the product. This cuts back on printing and reduces the cost of advertising. The “pass the buck” trend could prove itself successful with technology trends. Such apps would link the customer to auto populating grocery lists. While the way of scanning the ad is sill a mystery, the Walmart app has 7 million downloads already.
The fever has spread. One particular ad has promised to hire any honorable veteran for a homecoming shoot. While Walmart didn't shoot this, it will be added to its search engine. No more long expensive ad shoots seems to be the trend. Combining simple information is what the doctor has called for. Bundled content is more streamlined and easier for the consumer to access. This keeps cost low and encourages community in the never ending goal of incorporating advertising in our lives.

Walking Blind: America's End
Every Country has its Beginning and end. Its logical, if something starts it must finish. In the past, you have the Babylonians, Persians, Ethiopians, Spartans, Romans and even England. They all had a peak, yet have ended or declined. All were dominate powers of the world in their day. Sir Alex Tytler studied the American democracy system and concluded the following:
"A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largess from the public treasury. From that time on the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury, with the results that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship."
-Sir Alex Fraser Tytler (1742-1813)
"The average age of the world’s greatest civilizations from the beginning of history, has been about 200 years. During those 200 years, these nations always progressed through the following sequence:
- From bondage to spiritual faith;
- From spiritual faith to great courage;
- From courage to liberty;
- From liberty to abundance;
- From abundance to complacency;
- From complacency to apathy;
- From apathy to dependence;
- From dependency back into bondage."
In 1776, Edward Gibbon, a British historian, wrote on the decline of the Roman Empire in his first volume. He founded a five part theme that can be modeled:
- The undermining of dignity and sanctity of the home, which is the basis of human society.
- Higher and higher taxes and the spending of public money for free bread.
- The Mad craze for pleasure
- The building of gigantic armaments when the real enemy was within: the decadence of the people.
- The decay of religion—faith fading into mere form—losing touch with life and becoming impotent to guide the people.
The age of romanticism gave way to realism around the 1900's. People began to question the source of their prosperity as writers of literature shifted the populace. Naturalism soon took over to the rise of Secular Humanism. This marks the beginning of it's fight with Christianity. The religious shift of the humanist started redefining family values leading to the first and fifth point of Gibbon's study on Rome. The notion of God was questioned as who needs Him when you are doing well? This warranted complacency to take over the abundance America was experiencing. The depression stalled this as people got a rude awakening. Socialistic principals were soon introduced from the Marxism-Leninism ideology. This slowed down the process of decline and made America able to continue its course without facing the immediate results. The National Bank and federal Reserve were established and we gave the power of our nation to other people. Inflation came to be.
The Roman government began differently but did the same to import comfort items in its society. It also began as a republic and evolved into a hybrid democracy with the Caesars leading. Rome also started inflating their money by reducing the percentage of silver in a coin. This functioned to finance wars and luxury items. The abundance caused the society to sink into apathy. Caesar continued building up his military conquest by stealing from the citizens economy. With apathy dominating, higher taxes and spending of the public money for bread was established. The Roman people were kept busy with sponsored free food and games.
We jump started the American economy with WWII. The Army needed tanks and rounds to fight. Like Rome, America went back to work with the new socialistic systems in place. Our abundance led to a complacency in the security of government. why not? we were winning the wars and the economy was good in light of the depression. Like Rome, The Federal Reserve started stealing from America to fund wars. The result was the massive build up of the industrial military complex we see today. America is approaching the 50 percent mark of its citizens totally dependent on the government as Rome was. They fell after their citizens where to lazy to defend their borders against invaders. This was because of the family units total corruption. Who would think Rome could fall? they were the greatest civilization on earth and must be immune to destruction. Both citizens were being entertained and kept apathetically busy when the real enemy was in their own governments'.
Like America Rome was experiencing the break down of the family unit through wide spread homosexuality, Killing of babies in public temples (abortion) and the divide of the family through entertainment. Rome took it to areas we haven't got to as men were legally able to kill their entire house hold if they chose, children were subject to sex, bestiality orgy's grew common in public and sex was common to engage with anyone of a lower social status. In America, we see the rise of homosexuality, polygamy behind that and media content getting more debased. We haven't seen nearly what Rome had but are on a quick path in that direction. The rage of pleasure led from apathy to dependence on the government in both civilizations.
We are in the verge of leaving the apathy/dependency phase to bondage. There is little difference between e and America in all categories. America has given the government your money to devalue, the raising of your children, your job market, control of business, your health care decisions and soon your weapons. The government is reducing your defence by downsizing the military. This will leave us venerable to an attack like the Romans. Our debt is already past the point of return. There is no return!!
We are starting to enter hyper inflation and have our debt compounded into oblivion. This is surpass all domestic product revenue. What is Obama's response? Keep spending. The similarities of America to Rome is scary and there is nothing left for our destiny to be the same as theirs (2016 Obama's America).

My Favorite Web Site
I visit Youtube a lot. I use it not only for video searches, but also for
music. I really like the fact that the latest videos are always posted on the
home page as well as what is trending. This allows a person to keep up with
what others are thinking and the attitude of the general populace. The
suggested video or "related" video section is now remembering what I
last watched and it brings up videos from my past viewing. This is convenient
as I don't have to search for whatever video I last saw to find one that I was interested
in. you don't have to be logged into Youtube either to view most videos and
that is also a plus. YouTube is very user friendly as well. It doesn’t take
much to figure it out and set up a customized video that includes imbedded
links, comment options and more. Because we are in an information age most companies
feel compelled to keep up with the modern trends and this often leads to many
updates/changes in the platform. YouTube does a great job of keeping up yet not
annoying there audiences with so many drastic changes that you have to learn
all over again (like Facebook)
On the flip side I really dislike how the new player doesn’t buffer while you pauses it. The old ones would buffer as long as the page was up. This allowed a person to have multiple pages up and view them as they loaded back to back. To save bandwidth they now only load so far and quit. This is very annoying when you are trying to watch a documentary or something along those lines. I would suggest that they find another way to conserve bandwidth as there are other forms of compression. I really wish they had another way to rate if a video should be restricted to mature audiences. Most videos aren't a problem, however, there are many that you have to log in for that are fine for regular audiences.

Matthew Perry sells Hollywood Hills West home for $4.685 million
Matthew Perry, who played Chandler Bing on the sitcom "Friends," has just sold his Hollywood mansion for $4.685 million. This was just above his buying price of $4.475 in 2008 according to public records. The 4,100 square foot house features white floors, retractable walls, pool with spa, and canyon views with much more.
Hollywood and China: Revenue and Responsibility
Previously Hollywood viewed China with weary eyes. Moth eaten theater screens, a land of piracy and censored to the hilt begged hands off for the center of American film. Events have taken a suprising turn as china has become the second largest international market growing at a staggering 31 percent to $2.75 billion. Up to 10 new screens are opening a day according to Christopher Dodd, who heads the Motion Picture Association of America. This number is set to double by 2015 he went on to say.
'Despicable Me' attraction coming to Universal Studios Hollywood
Universal Studios is planning on opening a new attraction in the distant future. While it is to soon to know any specific details, we do know the attraction will be a be a motion simulator ride, featuring high-definition 3-D effects and much like the current Simpsons ride. No one knows where it is going to be build but they just closed the Terminator 2 ride at the end of 2012.

State of the Union 2013
State of the Union
I sat down to watch my quarterly
fill of comedy as I tuned into the State of the Union Address. One thing I
noticed right off the bat was the President’s change of gears. Obama moved from
pushing policy, to more of a family oriented talk. It is as if he has finished
putting all the necessary policy in place and is now focused on the social side
of how the society will accept it. Obama started out his state of the Union
citing Kennedy, “The Constitution makes us not rivals for power but partners
for progress.” He used this as a means of drawing all the parties’ together
with a unifying theme of uniting to “make America great again” and cloaking his
power conquest. He motions to put aside the things that divide us as he dives
into his dividing agendas.
Obama did an excellent job of
hitting it off emotionally with his mention of bringing our troops home by the
end of the year. This received a standing ovation from both sides as he prepared
the audience for what he has in mind. Recapping the economy, the President
continued with the reports that our economy is growing with the stock market
looking up as the dollar bubble is nearing a pop. I took a trip down memory
lane as Obama recounted our past history of innovation and entrepreneurial pursuits
that made America great. With emotions buzzing, he incorporated government at
the head of these innovations of the past and providing these opportunities the
middle class. “We don’t need a bigger government we need a smarter government
that invests in growth,” he stated, as a means to relabel his big government
push.
Obama couldn’t seem to make up his mind on the
military. Leading to a false conclusion, he presented us with cutting education
or the military. Yet he said “.... As long as I'm commander-in-chief, we will
do whatever we must to protect those who serve their country abroad, and we
will maintain the best military the world has ever known....” Defending his
healthcare he proposed to cut the armed forces as our (his) health is more important.
The new taxes imposed by obamacare were
played up as a part of the original problem that needed to be solved. As a part
of “balancing” the budget, he proposed more taxes on the rich as a means to
punish them for creating wealth in America and to drive them to foreign
countries. This will help keep America great. Apple, Caterpillar, and Apple are
set to bring jobs back from overseas due to raising tariffs and lowering taxes
here. The president wants continue such reform and bring jobs back. Such legislation
was proposed to create government driven “hubs” of manufacturing; where “Businesses
will partner with the DoD and Energy to turn regions left behind by
globalization into global centers of high-tech jobs, as Obama put it. This will
ensue to make Americans more dependent on the government and ingrain interventionism
in our communist state. This view is defended by it being compared to the space
race. In short, growth and bringing back the middle class equals more
government involvement.
This speech didn’t finish without
energy being addressed. After cutting
the pipeline and many permits for American drilling, Obama stated that we
produce more oil here and should be making use of it. This wasn’t without the responsibility
of our “carbon credits” and global warming. “But if Congress won’t act soon to
protect future generations, I will. I will direct my Cabinet to come up with
executive actions we can take, now and in the future…” he spoke truly like a
king. This attitude represents much of the hard feelings that congress has exhibited
toward Obama’s ultimatums. On the subject of gas, he wants to get us off oil
and on to unreliable renewable energy sources like wind. Despite California going
bankrupt with this vision, converting the entire state of Kansas into a wind
farm wouldn’t be a bad idea to supply the nations’ power when the wind is
blowing. Being very familiar with power generation, I can attest to the problem
wind poses and the brownouts is causes when the air stops moving. We can all be
assured, however, as long as Obama is in Washington, the hot air will blow
constantly to feed our nation’s turbines. Leaving oil also doesn’t take into
account that our rapidly inflating dollar, that the President is dependent on,
is propped up by OPEC and it will be impossible to leave it without a collapse.
Obama is a huge supporter of
immigration and strengthen our borders. So much so, that he sued Arizona over
arresting illegal immigrants and has mandated that our air missile defense
system over Mexico be decommissioned by mid-April. We all know that He is
pushing for our good by strengthening our borders and keeping America safe with
his Comprehensive immigration reform.
We can’t stop there. By putting our
wallet in the government’s hands, we can pass the paycheck fairness act to help
with the discrimination against women. This way you can be entitled to a good living
no matter if you work at McDonalds or the ER. To strengthen the poor, he
proposes tying minimum wage to cost of living and raising the minimum wage to
nine an hour. By doing this, you aren’t creating more wealth for the poor. This
is backward economics and will drive business to not hire as you can’t create
more on the supply side than demand. Businesses won’t go bankrupt because they can’t
afford to pay more. This will drive them away and have the opposite effect of putting
more people out of work.
Family was the last issue on the
Presidents list. He wants your kids sooner by adding another government sponsored
program for “high quality” preschool programs. This is in the hope of reducing “violent
crime” because no child will learn that at home from its parents. Restructuring
the high schools was also mentioned, to bring them up to par with international
levels. He presented more hoops for schools to jump through to make our young
brighter. Giving high-schoolers degrees to make them more marketable for the
huge government driven machine that will be waiting for their contributions. The government will show you the way!! The
emotion of Sandy Hook drove the lasting impressions of this speech. Guns that deprived
so many must be taken from Americans to improve safety. Even though knives,
hammers and limbs kill more, we need guns severely regulated so we can have a
higher crime rate like Europe; this is for the good of us all.
Over all, smaller government is what we need. Obama is redefining
American history by tying it to government. He is seeking to downsize the
problems and pitch the same old thing that got us into this mess. More programs,
give up more freedom, trust the government for your future was the message and
it was presented in such emotional way (without hardly any evidence) that who
wouldn’t be for restoring America?
