Super Bowl Ads: What Works and Why
Rain43 in
"The stakes are a lot higher with the cost of Super Bowl ads, so marketers need to justify the multi-million-dollar investment. The best ads are ones that resonate with the right consumer base and give them a connection to the brand. Great campaigns like P&G's 'Thanks Mom' for the Olympics know how to do it without having to be weird. But, then again, weird is always more fun for those making the ads."
Yorke, a marketing expert, leads creative agency Rain43 and is a guest host on BNN's "Money and Marketing" segment each week. He is available to offer commentary on effectiveness, strategy and possible outcomes of Super Bowl ads.

Integrating social media helps increase the amount of earned media a brand will capture and engages the audience in more active ways. Instead of passively watching a commercial, they are now interacting with the brand. The impact increases exponentially."

"Families who feud over the family estate are often torn apart by allegations, legal claims and counter claims. Litigation is costly and stressful. An alternative process that is gaining in popularity is estate mediation. Mediation is a process that is specifically designed to achieve a successful resolution when highly emotional and contentious conflicts arise. Mediators are neutral and work for the common good of all individuals involved."

"The government is creating a daunting challenge for itself by trying to change the dynamics of how the healthcare system works in parallel with what is arguably the largest healthcare IT project ever attempted. Regardless of what your political beliefs are, I'm afraid the combination of these two overwhelming projects will result in a net loss for the American people."

"The Affordable Care Act has provided affordable premiums but not affordable care. We are seeing uninformed patients who believe that because they can afford the premium to hold insurance, they can get coverage. In reality, the deductibles are significantly higher and many are holding plans they cannot afford to use. It should be called the Affordable Premiums Act. In addition, providers severely underestimated the call volume to verify benefits. It is customary for all healthcare providers to call and verify everyone's benefits, which typically happens when you check in or at first appointment, a simple armless process. Providers are not equipped now to verify patients who received their plans via the government. This can hinder the patient being seen in a timely manner."

Chief Medical Editor
Smith is available to provide details about some of the leading causes of the flu, and can offer tips on how you can prevent coming down with flu symptoms. Here are a few tips Dr. Smith provides about preventing the flu: 1) Avoid touching your eyes, nose, or mouth. Germs can be spread by touching surfaces that have the flu virus in it and then touching your mouth or eye or nose. 2) Frequently wash your hands. While hand sanitizer is great, don't rely on it as a sole antibacterial source. Alcohol-based sanitizers kill cold and flu germs if soap and water are not available. Also, try to avoid shaking hands. 3) Clean areas you frequently touch. Wipe handles, railings, keyboard, doorknobs, phone/fax-machine buttons, and equipment with anti-bacterial wipes. Don't share pens or pencils. Clean your cellphone screen. 4) Prepare. Know what symptoms are prevalent in your area by using tools, such as

"Research on flu trends over the past decade conclusively shows that when a flu outbreak occurs in communities with high immunization rates among children, the mortality rate in elderly people is greatly diminished. So immunizing the kids protects the elderly from dying from flu. That's one of the important findings from the past decade. That's what's new in flu."

With folks calling out of work or being urged to stay home to limit the spread of the flu, productivity and operations are likely to be negatively affected.

Dr. Mirza can offer his thoughts as to the trend of NYC preschools and daycares requiring all children to receive a flu shot, as well as the following flu-prevention tips to protect yourself, friends and family from weeks of misery: 1) Wash your hands. For those occasions where you are unable to wash your hands properly, keep a bottle of alcohol-based hand sanitizer (at least 70% isopropyl alcohol or 60% ethyl alcohol) nearby. 2) Cover your mouth when coughing or sneezing. Try sneezing into a tissue or into the fold of your elbow. 3) Avoid frequently touching nose, eyes and mouth. Even with frequent washing, your hands are still covered in germs. 4) Keep surfaces and objects used daily clean. The flu virus can live and be transferred on a variety of surfaces. 5) Eat right. Help your body fight off flu viruses with a well-balanced diet filled with foods that are rich in vitamin C. 6) Stay active. Any type of cardio exercise will activate your body's infection-fighting defenses and stimulate your immune system. 7) Sleep. Let your body recover and fight off any germs that may have gotten into your system by getting plenty of sleep. 8) Stay hydrated. Drinking fluids, especially water, is a great way to flush out any toxins that may have found their way into your system. 9) Manage stress. Stress can affect your immune system, reducing your body's ability to fight off the flu virus or other germs. 10) Get vaccinated. Save yourself the misery and visit your doctor and get the shot.

As always, vaccination is the first step in flu prevention, but after getting vaccinated, it's important for everyone to follow simple steps to help prevent the spread of the flu virus. These include washing your hands with warm water and soap for at least 20 seconds, coughing and sneezing into your elbow instead of your hands, and disinfecting germ hot spots around the house that are touched most frequently – like doorknobs, light switches, and remote controls – a household disinfectant that kills 99.9 percent of cold and flu viruses, including the H1N1 strain, that can live on hard non-porous surfaces for up to 48 hours."

Aftermath
"There are three simple steps to stop the spread of influenza in homes and the workplace: 1) Clean: Wipe all surfaces, including toys and doorknobs, with a household cleaning agent, such as Lysol, to rid them of germs. 2) Dry: Allow ample time to dry completely before disinfecting it. 3) Disinfect: Once the surface is clean and dry, apply a disinfectant to rid the surface of bacteria and viruses. But make sure to carefully read a product's label for instructions. Bleach is only effective if diluted properly by water."

While flu can be dangerous for everyone, it is of particular concern for children. On average most years, more than 20,000 children are hospitalized and more than 100 children die due to flu.

"You want to get in front of an illness. As soon as you know you're coming down with an illness and can soak in Epsom salt, the better it will work."
Dr. Ramsey says soaking in Epsom salt helps spur a process called vasodilation, which increases white blood cell production and helps the body fight illnesses quicker. You can get Epsom salt – actually magnesium sulfate – for just a few bucks at your local pharmacy or supermarket, and doctors say soaking in it can help ease aches, calming the body as it fights the symptoms of a cold or flu.

Peak flu season is here – we usually see the highest rates in February and flu season can last until May. Expect H1N1 flu to feel like most flu symptoms but your fever may be a little higher, your cough a little deeper, and you may feel even achier or more wiped out. Some patients also experience nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. Get a flu shot now – it takes about two weeks for your body's immune system to fully protect against the virus. Getting a flu shot is a healthy choice for you, your family and the entire community. The more people who protect against the virus, the less flu in general – which is good for everyone. Besides vaccinations, the best ways to beat H1N1 are the same as they are for flu and many other winter illnesses: get plenty of sleep, eat right, disinfect shared surfaces and wash your hands often. There's more to flu season than flu – we also see a lot of colds, strep throat, laryngitis, pneumonia, ear infections and upper respiratory infections like sinusitis and bronchitis.

"What can people do to prevent the flu? The best way to prevent the flu is to get the vaccine. Next, personal hygiene measures such as covering sneezes, hand washing and environmental cleanliness is critical. And, persons with the flu should limit their contact with other persons. How important is the vaccine? The annual flu vaccine is the first and most important way to prevent and to protect against the flu virus. The vaccine is particular important for persons who are at greatest risk including healthcare workers, young children (not less than six months old), pregnant women, persons with chronic diseases such as diabetes, heart disease and persons over the age of 65 years. If you do get the flu, what can you do to limit its spread? Limit contact with other persons, maintain personal and environmental hygiene and take antiviral drugs prescribed by a doctor."
