Commentary: Reinsurance program would increase access for Delawareans
Jun 9th, 2019 · by · Comments:
Under the Affordable Care Act, states were required to create health insurance marketplaces for people who weren't eligible for coverage at their workplaces, were too young for Medicare, made too much money to be eligible for Medicaid, had aged off their parents' plans or were self-employed.
The first year of enrollment for Delaware's marketplace began in the fall of 2013, with three insurers offering 21 health plans for consumers. Despite the challenges that accompanied the launch of HealthCare.gov that fall, more than 23,000 Delawareans enrolled for coverage, which began Jan. 1, 2014.
Since that first year, Delaware has experienced five more enrollment periods, reaching a peak of more than 28,000 for 2016. But double-digit premium increases led to an erosion of enrollees, especially among those not eligible for federal financial assistance to help pay their monthly premiums. Insurers faced large claims from people who hadn't been insured in years and needed extensive — and in some cases, life-saving — medical care.
Kara Odom Walker
Insurers couldn't reach the profitability sweet spot, and they retrenched, reducing their plan offerings, and in some cases, exiting the marketplace altogether. For 2019, only one insurer remained on Delaware's marketplace, offering eight plans. Enrollment dropped to 22,562, the lowest total since 2015.
For Delawareans who owned small businesses or who were thriving in the gig economy as IT consultants, hair stylists, private transportation service drivers or home improvement specialists, the premium increases made coverage unaffordable over those six years. Those making up to $48,560 for an individual, or up to $100,400 for a family of four are eligible for tax credits on the marketplace, but the credits diminish greatly for people making more than $36,000 as an individual or about $75,000 as a family of four.
A freelance writer, a house painter or coffee shop owner made too much money to be eligible for financial assistance with their premiums on the marketplace, but suffered sticker shock when they saw the monthly premiums and the deductibles skyrocket. For too many, they made the conscious decision to forego health insurance and pay for medical care as they needed it, hoping that a serious illness or accident wouldn't throw them into financial ruin.
In an innovation economy, we can't have health insurance costs that push coverage out of the reach of people who are moving from job to job, or who want to retire early. And for those who take the bold step to move from employee to small business owner, we need a marketplace with health insurance that they can afford, too.
Working with legislators and other stakeholders, the Department of Health and Social Services and the Department of Insurance joined a group that looked at options for bringing down the cost of premiums for Delawareans who buy insurance for themselves or their families, making premiums more affordable for more Delawareans. The most workable solution became what is called a reinsurance program, with a target of reducing premiums by 20 percent.
Trinidad Navarro
Like many things in health care, reinsurance is a complex process — contingent on approval by the federal government — but essentially it would work this way: The state of Delaware would use actuarial modeling to determine the level of reinsurance financing needed to achieve that 20 percent premium reduction. From there, the Department of Insurance would collect an assessment from the Health Insurer Carriers to fund the reinsurance program and the Delaware Health Care Commission would administer the program.
During a coverage year, if a claim from an enrollee reached a certain pre-determined figure, the insurer would pay a specific percentage and the reinsurance program would cover the rest — up to a pre-determined cap. That would reduce the impact of a high-cost claim on premiums for the entire group the following year. The cap also would incentivize the insurance carriers to continue managing the health of their members.
The expectation is that as premiums decrease, more Delawareans would opt to buy insurance and those who currently have coverage would keep it. If we can succeed in building a bigger pool of enrollees, we can spread the risk over a larger population. This can help create more stability and predictability for both the insurers and the members. The last few years of volatility have been challenging for everyone, but especially for those Delawareans with medical conditions who cannot risk being without coverage, but who struggle to pay the premiums each month.
The reinsurance program requires not only the approval of the federal government, but also the approval of Delaware's General Assembly.
House Speaker Pete Schwartzkopf is the prime sponsor of House Bill 176, joined by Reps. Valerie Longhurst, John Mitchell, Paul Baumbach, David Bentz and Mike Ramone, and President Pro Tempore Sen. David McBride, and Sens. Nicole Poore and Bryan Townsend.
We hope the legislation will have broad support as another tool to increase access to health insurance for Delawareans, especially those who have embraced the innovation economy.

Throughout the Internet, autoresponders make for an excellent promotional tool. Although the technical name is an autoresponder, other known names include auto email, mailbot, and email responder. An autoresponder is a great way to save time, as it responds to any message with an automatic response.
Autoresponders can vary from messages that go through email to scripts that are programed to run on servers.

At some point in our Internet lives, a majority of us have received a message from an autoresponder. It could have been a short response letting you know that the individual is away, or an email thanking you for something that you have done. Perhaps it was even an email letting you know about upcoming products, or even an email letting you know that a message you tried to send couldn't be delivered.
Each one of these messages is all but a different version of a useful program known as an autoresponder. Autoresponders are very useful tools, as they will automatically send out an answer to any email that they receive. The answer that they send out however, will all depend on the messages that you have the program set up with. Autoresponders are very flexible, and most will hold a variety of pre set messages.
The very first autoresponders were used with email providers or email transfer agents. Whenever an email you sent out couldn't be delivered to the recipient, it would send you an automatic response letting you know that your mail couldn't be delivered. Although these programs were somewhat helpful, they weren't all that sophisticated.
Over the years, autoresponders have changed quite a bit, proving to be very useful with big companies and even Internet marketing. These days, autoresponders are used by businesses and companies to give immediate response and feedback to interested clients and subscribers. This could include a response about programs, information about pricing, specific details regarding a product, and even a time that someone from the company can get in touch with the client.
In the world of Internet marketing, staying in touch with clients is easier than ever with an autoresponder. They will save you a quite a bit of time, especially when you think about how long it would take you to personally send email responses to each and every email you get. If you run a business, you probably get hundreds of emails a day. An autoresponder can simplify your life, by sending out a preset message response to each and every email you receive.
You can set up an autoresponder using either one or two methods – an outsourced ASP model and server side model. When using an outsourced ASP model, the company wishing to use the autoresponder will their business model will contract through an outside provider. This outside provider will then give the company user access to a web based system, or control panel. From the control panel, the company or individual can set up the autoresponder, preset messages, and decide how the autoresponder will handle the many different types of emails. One of the best services we have found is www.Automatic-Responder.com their service is top notch. To use these types of services, the individual or company will have to pay the autoresponder provider a flat monthly fee.
Server side autoresponders are a bit different. Basically, they are programs that a company or individual installs themselves and runs it on their own computer or server. You can save money with these programs, as you don't have to pay a provider to operate the autoresponder. Although server side autoresponders weren't user friendly in the beginning, they have become easier and easier to operate over the years – and are now the most popular type of autoresponder.
In all actuality, autoresponders are great to have. They are very reliable, and can easily save you a lot of time. The way the different types work can be a bit perplexing, although most are easy to use and easy to implement into your website. If you own or operate an online business – an autoresponder is something you should never find yourself without.

Out there on the Internet, there are many autoresponders to choose from. They are classified into three main types – locally hosted, remote hosted and desktop hosted. Each type has pros and cons, depending on your needs. Locally and desktop hosted programs will give you complete control over the program, as you run them through your own server or website. Remote hosted on the other hand, is ran through a third party service provider. Remote programs cost you a monthly fee, while desktop and locally hosted programs cost one fee – then you have complete ownership of the program.
Before you decide to purchase an autoresponder, you should always compare and see what each one has to offer. If you are interested in running one from your server or website, then you'll need to look at desktop and locally hosted autoresponders. There are free programs available online, although they will normally come with strings attached, such as ads in your emails. This can be a bad thing, as ads in your email will give customers the wrong impression. www.Automatic-Responder.com is a great service that also offers a free version for up to 250 subscribers and no advertisements.
When you purchase one of these types of autoresponder programs, you should always research and find out all that you can. There are many programs out there that you can buy, many of which will offer you great features at a great price. Buying your program is the way to go, especially if you have an image to uphold. Once you have found a program and buy it, it will be yours for as long as you decide to use it.
If you are looking towards a remotely hosted autoresponder, you'll need to research for the best prices and service, this is a must when shopping around. You'll be dealing with a company who has control over the address of the autoresponder, meaning that your domain name won't appear in the emails you send using the autoresponder. This can be good for some, although many prefer to have their name in their emails.
When it all comes down to it, you should always research an autoresponder before you decide to make a purchase or use a free program. There are several out there to choose from, although some are far superior to others. If you take the time and research what each one has to offer you and how much it will cost you – you'll end up with an autoresponder that will prove to be more than worth the cost.
The only real problem to autoresponders is the fact that they will replay to any email that they receive. If you are subscribed to a mailing list and used your autoresponder address to sign up, it can easily create a problem. Anytime someone sends you an email to your responder address it will send an automated reply. It can also lack important features that you need to follow up on your clients or subscribers as well.
For the Internet marketing guru, there are sequential autoresponders. These types of autoresponders are designed to collect different email addresses then send out a variety of pre determined messages through email to subscribers that you have on your list. If you have a sequential autoresponder and use it correctly, it can help you bring back more visitors. It can be a very handy tool to have around, especially if you work with a lot of clients. It can help you keep track of subscribers, as well as keep them informed about what is going on with your business.
Anyone who owns a website can gain a world of benefit from an autoresponder. If you own a website, you probably have hundreds of visitors on a daily basis. Through the use of an autoresponder, you can take their emails addresses and contact them anytime you wish. Although an autoresponder is a great thing – you should be very careful when you choose the one for your website.
When you select your autoresponder, you want to purchase from a company that has a history of being stable and reliable. There have been several companies in the past that have went out of business, taking customer lists and leaving those with their autoresponders hanging. This can be very devastating to a company, and you should avoid it at all costs. You should always choose a company that you can rely on, and never go by price. If you try to save yourself some money, you could end up paying for it down the road.
If you run a big company, you'll want an autoresponder that supports multiple lists and allows you to follow up with customers as many times as you wish. An autoresponder can do more than just answer emails, which is why you should pay close attention to features. Although you may have just one website now, you'll want to plan ahead for the future just in case you decide to run more than one site.
If you don't know a lot about computers, you'll want to choose an autoresponder that is easy to set up. Non technical autoresponders are always the best, as virtually anyone can install them. Integration is also important, especially if you have a lot of other components on your website such as a shopping cart or a checkout. If you are paying for hosting with your website, you should check and see if the package comes with an autoresponder.
For many, price is a very important factor. If you don't have a lot of money to spend, this will be a crucial consideration. Although there are free autoresponders out there, you should usually use them, as they come with ads and other annoyances. One of the best we have found that does offer a free account and no ads is www.Automatic-Responder.com for up to 250 subscribers it is a great deal. If you search around on the Internet, you may be able to find a complete package that offers you web hosting and an autoresponder together for one low price. The savings here can be really good, especially if you use a long term option.
If you take your time and choose a reliable autoresponder, you'll save your company and yourself a lot of money in the long run. Buying or downloading a free or cheap autoresponder is never a good idea, as it will end up costing you both money and time. The ideal way to find the best autoresponder is weigh out your options, take your time, and select best autoresponder for your company.
When it comes to making a sell using your autoresponder, follow up messages are very important. Most website visitors won't buy something on the first visit; it normally takes more than 6 or 7 visits before they decide to make a purchase. To keep them interested and eventually make the sale, you'll need to come up with some innovative yet captivating follow up messages.
When you start writing your message, you'll need to come up with compelling headlines. Compelling headlines will draw attention from readers, making them feel excited to read the rest of your message. If you send a message with a shoddy headline, chances are that your readers will just glance over the email and not pay much attention to it at all.
You can also grab attention from your readers by sending them personalized messages with their names and other details. There are several autoresponders that personalize messages through the insertion of codes. When you send a message out, the code is replaced with the personal information of the subscriber. When receiving the email, the reader will see his or her personal information instead of the code.
When you end a message, make sure that you leave a teaser for the next message. This way, your customers will look forward to receiving your next message. You should also carefully weave in messages regarding your contact and order information as well, so readers can place an order without any problems. If you put some time and thought into your follow up messages – you'll start racking up customers and sales in no time at all.
It's no secret that articles are hot right now. Articles are a great way to promote products you are selling, helping you build your business and reach a broader audience. Articles should be full of information, easy to read and understand, and provide readers helpful information towards their topic of interest. In most cases, articles will include a link to a website, which is designed to sell products or services that relate to the article.
Normally, articles are submitted to websites, article banks, directories, and sometimes used with ezines as well. There are many uses for articles, as they are one of the best ways to promote products and services online. Although you can find many different uses for articles, one of the best is with autoresponder. If you combine informational articles with an autoresponder, you'll get results that you can be proud of. Autoresponders are very popular these days – although few think to use them in combination with articles.
You can do this by setting up each one of your articles with your autoresponder. You should ensure that each article has its own address, meaning that you'll need to use an autoresponder that allows you to it. Once you have an autoresponder that allows you to do this, you should make a master list of every article you have, putting the address of the autoresponder beside of the article title. If you prefer, you can also add a description of the article to your master list.
If you have a lot of articles, keeping up with them can be a tedious task. Those who have a lot of products, normally have hundreds of thousands of articles. If you sell articles, you probably have more than you can count. All over the Internet, people are looking for articles. One great source we found for PLR articles is www.articlewholesaler.com on the web. Articles contain information, information that can solve problems or describes products. Each and every day on the Internet, millions of people around the world search for information. This information that they search for, is normally in the form of articles.
If you were to advertise all of articles one by one, it would take you quite a bit of time. If you have hundreds to show, it can take you weeks – even months. Through the use of autoresponder, you can save a lot of time. Showing off one address with one article won't take you long at all, as the autoresponder will do a majority of the work. All you have to do is put the link on your website, or add it to your preset messages when you send out emails. Autoresponders can really get your articles and information out there, all you have to do is give them a try.
The world of affiliate marketing can be very challenging, although very rewarding as well. All across the Internet, there are hundreds of thousands of affiliate marketers making lots of money selling other people's products. Some marketers make a lot of sales overnight, leaving other marketers to wonder just how they done it.
Affiliate marketing is indeed a good way to make extra money, or a lot of money if you are proficient at it. If you are just starting out, you may not think there is any potential. Those that have a lot of experience however, have thousands of customers and clients. Once an affiliate marketer has been in the business long enough, it's not surprising to see him or her with 10 – 20,000 customers.
Almost all successful affiliate marketers have used an autoresponder at some point in time. An autoresponder can make business a lot easier, and enable you to contact all of your customers or potential customers with the click of a button. You don't spend hours or days sending out emails or answering questions anymore – autoresponders take care of all that and a lot more.
Anytime you have a new product, all you have to do is write a review about it, add it to the broadcast page of your autoresponder, make a few adjustments, personalize it for your customers, then send it off to everyone on your customer list with the click of a button. If you have a follow up autoresponder, it will keep your message going.
Keep in mind that it will take you a long time to build a large customer base. Using an autoresponder can speed up the process, help you save time, and help you manage your list. Once you get your first customer, you can rest assured that a lot more will follow. As we all know, a lot of customers in your customer list will lead to a lot of money with affiliate marketing. If you don't have any customers – you simply can't make any money.
All across the Internet, there are many companies and businesses that offer affiliate marketing programs. All you have to do is contact the company and find out information about their program, then get started selling their products. You can make a commission with each sale, using your autoresponder to do over 50% of the work. Making money doesn't get any easier than affiliate marketing and autoresponders.
If you already have a website and companies that you are an affiliate with, you should start building your customer opt in list as soon as possible. Once you have some customers in your list, you should drop them an email or a message every week or so. You can send them information, tips, or just a general newsletter. If you take the time to send them messages – you'll keep a good relationship with them and they will keep coming back.
In the world of Internet marketing and online businesses, one of the most difficult tasks to accomplish is effectively managing your time with your day to day tasks. By using a bit of creativity however, you can use an autoresponder to your advantage and drastically reduce your work load.
Those of you who are looking to make a lot of money can save a lot of time and still make a lot of money through the use of an autoresponder. There are several ways that you can use an autoresponder to your advantage, resulting in big money and more time for your business so you tend to other things or simply sit back and spend more time with your family.
You can also choose to use your entire website in autoresponder format. Although this may sound silly to some, it's actually an innovative idea that really works. Not all visitors will have the time to read your website; often times having to leave before they can really read what you have to offer. If you put your website in autoresponder format, you can email bits and pieces from your site to potential customers so they can continue to read when they have time.
Another innovative way to use your autoresponder is by including your terms and conditions. Often times, potential customers and clients simply don't have enough time to read through your terms and conditions. The terms and conditions are very important, which is why it never hurts to include them with an email. Your terms and conditions that you email could include the exact copy from your website, or detailed information about your return policies, purchases, refunds, and anything else you think a potential customer would like to know.
There are many other ways that you can use your autoresponder. All you need to do is put a little bit of creativity and thought into it, and you'll probably find yourself amazed with all the things you can do with autoresponders. They are very popular with Internet marketing and online businesses these days, and for good reason. If you've grown tired of having to manage every aspect of your online business – now is the time to invest in an autoresponder. They are user friendly and very affordable – making them something that no business should ever be without.
Even if you've never used an autoresponder before, you can easily use it to your advantage with your online business. You can preset it to say a variety of messages, even inform your clients about future offers and products. This is a great way to get your message out there, especially if you are currently holding a sale or other deal that you know people won't want to miss out on. Autoresponders will work for you day or night, making your company information available to anyone whenever they want it.
Contrary to popular belief, not all buyers are impulse buyers. Research has shown that less than 15% of those who visit websites are impulse buyers. Although most websites focus themselves on getting visitors to buy their products immediately, most buyers need time to think about a product or offer they will purchase it. Most buyers don't like to buy something immediately, simply because they may not be familiar with the product or know what it can do for them. Therefore, most buyers will learn all they can about something before they decide to go ahead and purchase it.
In the world of Internet marketing, autoresponders are simply beneficial to have. They are worth more than the price you pay for them, simply because they will provide you with so much for so little. One of the best in the business is www.Automatic-Responder.com. Sending out information is easy with an autoresponder – as it will provide information about your company and products to interested clients the instant they need it.
All in all, an autoresponder will help you operate your business easier than ever before. Unlike other programs you can get for your online business, autoresponders will keep you in a constant state of readiness. You can feel free to go out and do what you want – and rest assured that your autoresponder will be there to supply information to those who need it.
These days, autoresponders make for great follow up tools. You can set them up to your liking, as they are easy to set up and will hold a lot of preset messages. Although they are very popular, a lot of people fail to see the power they hold and therefore never use them. If you've been looking to make extra money, the tips below will show you how you can make money using an autoresponder.
The first thing to do, is ensure that your site has a signup form. A signup form is an obvious way to use an autoresponder, yet a lot of people don't think about it. Each and every day your website attracts visitors, many of us come back. If you put a signup form on your site, they can sign up and become a contact. This way, your customer base will grow with each passing day. You can stay in close contact with your customers this way, and even increase your audience over time as well.
You can also give out free reports or ebooks as well. It's actually an easy task to exchange reports or ebooks for someone's email address. Even though you may not have a website, you can still make the free report or ebook available by having people send blank emails to your autoresponder. In doing so, you will build a client list and get your report out there – which can help you make money.
You can also choose to publish an ezine. To do so, you'll need to load your autoresponder will a course that contains several parts. This way, your clients will receive your reports and material in sections. You can also build a customer base this way, and eventually recommend you to their family and friends. Once you have a relationship and your clients start to trust you, you can send them information for other products.
You can also use autoresponders as curriers as well. When you send an email out, ask the recipient to pass your email along to family and friends. As they pass your emails along, you'll gain more subscribers. Although you'll have to start out small when you first begin, you'll find that your client list will grow in little to no time at all.
Autoresponders are also handy with site updates as well. If you update your site on a regular basis, you may want to use an autoresponder with individuals who want to be informed when your site is updated. With an autoresponder, all you have to do is send out a broadcast email and everyone will be informed at the same time.

Anti-war protesters spray paint Capitol building
http://thehill.com/thehill/export/TheHill/News/Frontpage/012507/protesters.html
By Jackie Kucinich
Anti-war protesters were allowed to spray paint on part of the west front steps of the United States Capitol building after police were ordered to break their security line by their leadership, two sources told The Hill.
According to the sources, police officers were livid when they were told to fall back by U.S. Capitol Police (USCP) Chief Phillip Morse and Deputy Chief Daniel Nichols. "They were the commanders on the scene," one source said, who requested anonymity. "It was disgusting."
After police ceded the stairs, located on the lower west front of the Capitol, the building was locked down, the source added.
A second source who witnessed the incident said that the police had the crowd stopped at Third Street, but were told to bring the police line in front of the Capitol.
Approximately 300 protesters were allowed to take the steps and began to spray paint "anarchist symbols" and phrase such as "Our capitol building" and "you can't stop us" around the area, the source said.
Morse responded to these claims in an e-mail Sunday afternoon explaining that the protesters were seeking confrontation with the police.
"While there were minor instances of spray painting of pavement by a splinter group of Anarchists who were seeking a confrontation with the police, their attempts to breach into secure areas and rush the doors of the Capitol were thwarted," Morse said. "The graffiti was easily removed by the dedicated [Architect of the Capitol] staff, some of whom responded on their day off to quickly clean the area."
He added, "It is the USCP's duty and responsibility to protect the Capitol complex, staff and public while allowing the public to exercise their First Amendment rights … at the end of the day, both occurred without injury to protestors or officers."
Yet, the sources who talked to The Hill were furious that protesters were not stopped before reaching the Capitol.
"To get that close to the Capitol building, that is ridiculous," the second source said. "[Police] were told not to arrest anyone."
The second source added that police had to stand by and watch as protesters posed in front of their graffiti.
Tens of thousands of people rallied on the Mall and the Capitol complex Saturday in protest of the increased troop deployments and the war in Iraq.

SECOND REQUEST:
Dear Senator Oroho,
I'm writing this request (again) on behalf of Jack Cunningham, a former active duty Marine and Vietnam veteran. Although I've never actually met him in person, simply the fact that he is a fellow Marine in need of justice, I offer to help him in any way I can. As you may know, Marines are like that. Marines take care of Marines.
Although I probably don't know all of the facts pertaining to his case against the State of New Jersey, I know enough to firmly believe that he should be heard in a public forum. His charges are serious. There are claims of abuse of power and cover-up at the highest level of the State government. When such accusations are made, I believe the leadership has no other option than to investigate. Until that is done, all that know of him and his charges will assume that there is indeed a cover-up. Perception is a powerful thing. Hopefully it won't be counter to the truth, whatever that may be.
If this is allowed to continue to fester, the results will be devastating on all involved.
If this issue is not addressed soon, my only other option is to forward this to every Marine website and public forum I can find. That option is not a good one for any of us.
Please do the right thing and give Jack his "day in court."
Very Respectfully, John R. Bates

This has nothing to do with politics. It's more about respect and honor for our sister and brother veterans and our sisters and brothers, who are currently serving honorably in our military...
At the anti-war protest in Washington, D.C. in January 2007, there was ALOT of damage done at the Capitol steps. We cannot and will not allow this to happen at The Wall or to any of our memorials.

Gathering of Eagles is an act of love by thousands of veterans who choose to honor the sacrifice of the fallen by guarding the memorials from those who would desecrate them on March 17th in a "peaceful" anti-war rally in Washington D.C.
It is also a call to action for every American who chooses to stand and say "No more!" to those who would spit on our veterans and ridicule their service to our nation.

People don't make purchase decisions the way they used to, and that means marketers should rethink how they use concepts like brand, loyalty and positioning, write Itamar Simonson and Emanuel Rosen.
One of the strongest held beliefs among marketers is that brand plays an important—even crucial—role in consumer decision-making.
But recent developments in consumer electronics should make us all stop and think. Consider two examples: Roku, a virtually unknown brand, captured significant market share in the streaming set-top box market.
We attribute these phenomena to a fundamental shift in the way consumers make decisions. Let us explain this shift and how it shakes long-held beliefs about three concepts in marketing: brand, loyalty, and positioning.
Social media, online reviews and easily available expert opinions make brand equity more volatile. Image via Flickr.
In the past, consumers had no way of accurately assessing the real quality of things directly, so they usually evaluated quality based on generic, top-of-mind reference points and quality proxies.
One such proxy was the brand name. But brands are less needed when consumers can assess product quality using better sources of information such as reviews from other users, expert opinion, or information from people they know on social media.
The same thing happens in the tablet market where people feel comfortable trying brands such as Acer or Asus instead of well-established brands. And of course, this shift in decision-making is not limited to consumer electronics; it can be seen in the way people shop for cars, hotels, books, restaurants, and many other products and services.
The main implication is that it presents newcomers with lower barriers to entry and, as a result, creates more volatility in brand equity (which means that newcomers who are rejoicing as they gain market share should realize that they can fall just as fast).
Another proxy that consumers used to rely on was their past experience with a company.
Since he didn't have too many alternative sources of information, it made sense to stay loyal to Toshiba (or Sony or Dell). But in a world with good, low-cost information, the customer can easily start from scratch each time.
But more and more consumers think about their relationships with companies as an open marriage. Loyalty doesn't benefit the customer as much as it did in the past.
Are we saying that this is the end of brand and loyalty? Of course not. Apple, the leader in the tablet and set-top box markets, is a prominent example of that (although its success can also be attributed to offering high-quality products).
What we're saying is that the power of brand and loyalty as the main cues for quality is diminishing.
Positioning, or how products are presented relative to others, has less power in the digital age thanks to consumer tools like online reviews. Image via Flickr.
This is another concept that is becoming less relevant as consumers increasingly rely on the opinions of others. Yet many marketers still believe that they can drive product perceptions based on the way they present their products relative to other options.
But when consumers base their decisions on user and expert reviews, nice positioning statements are less likely to be adopted by the market. It's simply that reviewers on the web tend to evaluate multiple features of a product and are not likely to isolate a single attribute just because it was highlighted in a company's ad campaign.
But reviewers—and as a result consumers—evaluated all features of these phones (comparing, for example, camera, thickness, and display) and didn't necessarily put any emphasis on how well the phone works with Facebook.
Marketers can save themselves a lot of money by avoiding doomed-to-failure positioning attempts.
When consumers can assess their likely experience without having to rely on things like brand names or prior experience, everything changes. Yet most people think about marketing using the same old concepts.
Despite all the talk about the internet and social media, the presumed critical roles of branding, loyalty, and positioning have not changed. It's time to seriously reevaluate these and other long-held beliefs about marketing.

SINGING DUO WERE IFFY ALREADY
February 11, 2009 | 7:50am
OHH, so many stories in the newspaper there aren't even enough lies to go around.
First, the Rihanna–Chris Brown saga. Seems stunning A-1 singer Rihanna got a little smashed up apparently, allegedly at the hand or hands of handsome R&B singer Chris Brown. They are or have been or were or used to be – or God knows could be again – girlfriend and boyfriend. Before this happened, I'd heard the relationship's really dicey because she is possessive. Wants 411 on where he is at all times. When her man's on tour, it is known that other known beauties are known to want to meet him. Know what I mean? I'm told she's told his bodyguards to forbid these types backstage, and that trouble's been brewing a long time.
Hell hath no fury like a superstar scorned.
NOW, the pro athletes/ A-Rod/ anabolic ster oids saga. Attributed to one on the Olympics committee is this comment: "Athletes end up in fourth place because they are not using substances." Attributed to one medalist's trainer is this quote: "Show me an athlete not on drugs, and I will show you a loser."
And do not pick on me, I only report what I've read.
NAOMI Watts and Clive Owen's thriller diller chiller killer film "The International" – opening scenes have a guy puking twice, ending scenes feature blood and guns and guts spilling – had a screening. This spy, espionage, shoot-'em-up, bank-scandal job races from Berlin to New York to Istanbul to Milan to wherever so fast that it reminded me of George Clooney's "Syriana," which I couldn't follow. My companion, however, loved it and witheringly informed me: "You're just not too swift."
Anyway, Naomi. Nifty in Christian Louboutin black spikes, Thierry Mugler form-fitting (and what a form!), low-cut black pantsuit and Fred Leighton black onyx-white diamond hanging earrings. "I think I own this pantsuit," she said. Turning to someone she asked, "Do I own this?" Told yes, she then reported: "It's mine, signed, sealed and delivered." The shoes also. The earrings, not.
Mrs. Liev Schreiber then added: "Remember I was just with Liev at the premiere of 'Defiance,' his film with Daniel Craig? And how do you like that – now there's my film, and he's not with me! It's because he's in LA with our little boy, and we didn't think he should travel across the country for just one night." Warding off the cold, her arms were folded across her chest, and she twirled a fat diamond wedding band, which sat on the forefinger of her right hand. Nice diamonds they were.
And the hero Clive Owen, what with the film's subject and today's worldwide subject, he ever had banking problems? "No banking scandals in my life yet. But, then, I don't handle that part of my life. I'm pretty straight in what I do. I'm just an actor."
OK, so how often's this actor seen this movie and, in particular, how's he think he did in it? "I've seen it all the way through only once . . . and . . . I like the film."
And the actor/hero's Valentine's plans? "Only to get home for a day. I've been on the road a long time."
TODAY Dr. Mehmet Oz addresses women's heart disease at Tavern on the Green's CRF luncheon . . . Tomorrow Alvin Valley, who's dressed J.Lo, Penelope, Kate Moss, shows his collection . . . Tomorrow night Doubles hosts its annual Little People's Valentine Dance . . . So far I know zippo for Friday, but I know about something come September. That's when Tyra Banks starts gracing our TV sets two hours every weekday (one archive, one current episode of her show).
AMY Adams on her knockout shot as the younger nun in "Doubt": "My fiancé and I were flying in from France. I knew nothing about any Oscar possibility until we landed. Then I heard. As we touched down my phone started ringing, and I remember whispering to him: 'I got nominated . . . I think.'
"It's amazing, awesome that John Patrick Shanley wrote a script with four such diverse characters that we'd all be nominated. I saw the play. I didn't know how he'd make a film out of it. During shooting, I only knew my own scenes. Until I saw the whole final film at one time I hadn't known how overwhelming was Viola Davis' performance, and now here we are, both up for Best Supporting Actress.
"Playing a nun, of course, meant no eye makeup, no lipstick. I began filming with no makeup on my face at all, but my skin is so pale and the outdoor scenes were in weather so cold that I'd turned blue on camera. So I eventually used a bit of blush. The funny thing is the weather was so chilly that we all ended up with chapped lips."
'THE Story of My Life," 2009's first new B'way musical, opens at the Booth the 19th. At a preview, well before the 90-minute show began, came the announcement: "There is no intermission, so anything that you need to take care of, do it now."
Only in New York, kids, only in New York.
It's Alex! Miss Cabot If You're Nasty!

MARVEL ANNOUNCES THREE NEW SERIES SPINNING OUT OF 'OUTLAWED'
Marvel is bringing back their teenaged heroes in a big way with a big story Titled "OutLawed"! This story sounds like it will be a can't miss. Read below for the details!!
The lives of your favorite superheroes are changing forever! When a law is passed outlawing teenage vigilantes, the already-high stakes facing Ms. Marvel, Miles Morales, Ironheart, and more will suddenly be raised. The government is imposing new restrictions on Marvel's teen heroes, but that's just the beginning of the story. Now, it's time for Marvel's next generation to fight back!
Three brand-new series, each reflecting the new Marvel status quo, were announced earlier today:
Announced by Screen Rant in an exclusive interview with writer and scholar Dr. Eve L. Ewing, CHAMPIONS will be a new ongoing series spinning out of OUTLAWED. With art by Simone Di Meo, this series will be chock full of surprises as the Champions prove that despite the new law, the world needs them more than ever!
And SYFY Wire has the scoop on writer Daniel Kibblesmith and artist Luciano Vecchio's NEW WARRIORS where fans will get to reunite with old friends and meet new ones! The series will show Night Thrasher reuniting with classic New Warriors Firestar, Rage, Speedball, Namorita and Silhouette to mentor a whole new group of young heroes. Get your first look at these mysterious new heroes, and stay tuned for more information on them in the weeks to come!
Comicbook.com has all you need to know about the new adventures of Marvel's original team of young superheroes. That's right – POWER PACK is back in an all-new series written by Ryan North and drawn by Nico Leon. Not quite youngsters anymore, the Power siblings will have to use their honed superhero skills to settle an old grudge while they go up against the brand–new law banning them from doing what they love!
The changes all start in March's OUTLAWED where new rules and restrictions, unheard of since the days of Marvel's Civil War, are imposed on the youngest heroes of the Marvel Universe. Be on the lookout for more announcements about the far-reaching effects of this new status quo.

List of largest snakes
The largest living snakes in the world, measured either by length or by weight, are various members of the Boidae and Pythonidae families. They include anacondas, pythons and boa constrictors, which are all non-venomous constrictors. The longest venomous snake, with a length up to 18.5–18.8 ft (5.6–5.7 m), is the king cobra,[1] and the heaviest venomous snake is likely to be the Gaboon viper (which also has the longest fangs and delivers the largest amount of venom) or possibly the Eastern diamondback rattlesnake – all three of which reach maximum weights in the range of 6–20 kilograms (13–44 lb).
There are eleven living snakes, listed below according to their maximum known or reported mass, that have a maximum mass that may reach or exceed 50 pounds (23 kg). Pending the acceptance of its taxonomic status, the Bolivian anaconda (Eunectes beniensis) may also merit inclusion, and the northern and southern variations of African rock python could be considered separately.
In terms of length, in addition to those listed here, there are two other species that may possibly reach a length of 20 feet (6.1 m) or more – the Oenpelli python (Morelia oenpelliensis) and the olive python (Liasis olivaceus) – however, the information available about those species is rather limited.[2] The Oenpelli python, in particular, has been called the rarest python in the world.[3][4][5]
It is important to be aware that there is considerable variation in the maximum reported size of these species, and most measurements are not truly verifiable, so the sizes listed should not be considered definitive. In general, the reported lengths are likely to be somewhat overestimated.[6] In spite of what has been, for many years, a standing offer of a large financial reward (initially $1,000 offered by U.S. President Theodore Roosevelt in the early 1900s,[7] later raised to $5,000, then $15,000 in 1978 and $50,000 in 1980) for a live, healthy snake over 30 ft (9.1 m) long by the New York Zoological Society (later renamed as the Wildlife Conservation Society), no attempt to claim the reward has ever been made.[2]
Although it is generally accepted that the reticulated python is the world's longest living snake, most length estimates longer than 6.35 m (20 ft 10 in) have been called into question.[6] It has been suggested that confident length records for the largest snakes must be established from a dead body soon after death, or alternatively from a heavily sedated snake, using a steel tape and in the presence of witnesses, and must be published (and preferably recorded on video).[6] At least one reticulated python was measured under full anesthesia at 6.95 m (22 ft 10 in), and somewhat less reliable scientific reports up to 10 m (33 ft) have appeared.[8]
Green anaconda Eunectes murinus Boidae May exceed 227 kg (500 lb),[9] validity questionable
97.5 kg (215 lb), reliable, maximum among 780 specimens caught over a seven-year period 1992–98[10]

Search engine optimization, or SEO, is essential to growing your business. Because many search engines and mobile apps now use location tracking as a feature to get the most relevant local results, customizing your SEO approach to your region is also necessary. For those in Ontario, finding the best Toronto SEO approach can give you access to the largest population center in the region and give you a great chance at success in growing your brand.
While you can look through SEO guidelines online, you can't take a one size fits all approach to online marketing. Instead, you need to make sure that you tailor your SEO strategy to your target market. In order to do that effectively, you need to develop a comprehensive strategy that highlights who you are trying to reach, what channels are likely to work for you, and how you can make that goal happen. Develop a broad strokes, mission statement style of SEO strategy early on. From there, you can fill in additional details as you get planning. Keep the plan flexible, since you will likely need to change course here and there as things begin to develop.
When developing SEO content, don't try to be all things to all people. Local businesses need to cater to local audiences in order to be successful. Make sure to mention the region you are located in and where you provide most of your services. If you are based in Toronto, then Toronto should be one of your keywords. You should also make sure to include some items of interest that appeal specifically to your region. If there are notable landmarks, activities that locals like, or something similarly unique, bring that up as long as it is relevant to your business. The more focus you give on your area, the more search engines will broadcast that information to your local customers.
Looking at yourself in relation to your competitors is a great way to make sure that you are on the track to SEO success. As such, an SEO audit performed by a company such as SeoLogist can help identify your problem areas and give you a leg up against your competitors. Performed by a team that knows SEO very well, the audit identifies your success in comparison to your competitors, does a complete overview of your website to identify weaknesses and failure, and provides suggestions on increasing your organic exposure. This is one of the greatest tools at your disposal when it comes to improving the flow of your website.
Making sure that you cater to a local audience with your SEO will strengthen your website, improve your business, and even expand your customer reach. If you aren't sure where to start in order to make this happen, services provided by SeoLogist can show you where your strengths lie and highlight the areas you need to improve upon in order to become more successful.

5 PAX posted for a bootcamp and one more came to log some miles on an unusually warm December morning. No FNG's so after a short disclaimer, pledge and a little warming up we headed to the front of the school for The Thang.
Most of you who have been posting for a while have likely done The Vern at some point. To my knowledge, it hasn't been done yet at Mt. Hollywood so let's break the ice. Fortunately for me, there's no place around town with a good place to do pull-ups so lets change that up to more of a crowd pleaser – Hip Slappers!
Still had a little time for Mary. Corkscrews, Big Boys, Burpee's, etc.
Orangeman with some upcoming decisions to make, pray for courage and guidance. Each other, PAX battling injuries.
Read Luke 6:38. You don't need to be wealthy to possess a giving heart. Don't get caught up in giving presents, rather give of yourself. A helping hand, a listening ear and a kind word are all examples of how we can give to others without spending any money. God promises us that when we give he will return those blessings back to us multiplied.
