I know a lot of people like Marie Osmond but I can't take those commercials anymore. First of all, I am sure she didn't pay for that plan - which for poor slobs like you and me, costs about $300 a month. (Although Nutrisystem says the plan costs no more than it normally does to eat for a month... or something like that... Who knew the plan was as cheap as Ramen?) Second, I'm sure they paid her. Third, I'm just sick of all their celeb endorsements in general. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:courier new;" >Is that fair advertising? Don't you have to say the person is paid? Isn't that a bit like someone who testifies at a trial for a lighter sentence? You know what I mean? They have a motivation to say what they are saying...

They include:</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:courier new;" > •Consumer testimonials would have to be substantiated and ads would have to include generally expected results. Endorsers, not just advertisers, could be held liable for deceptive claims. "You'd have to say not only is it extreme, but how extreme is it," the FTC's Richard Cleland said.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:courier new;" > •Celebrities who talk up a product in an interview must disclose if they are getting paid for the promotion. Celebrities who endorse products would have to disclose if they have an ownership interest.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:courier new;" > •Expert endorsers, like doctors, must have experience in the product area they are endorsing. If they don't, the limits of their expertise must be stated. For instance, an ophthalmologist identified only as a doctor could not be portrayed as an expert physician endorsing a hearing aid.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:courier new;" > •Bloggers who get free products and then endorse them on their blogs would have to make it clear they got the products free.</span></span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:courier new;font-size:180%;" >About damn, time... and for your viewing pleasure...<br /><br /><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/vjnuBTPOaKY&hl=en&fs=1"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/vjnuBTPOaKY&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br /></span>What's Bugging Me Today?http://www.blogger.com/profile/06207887913554028356noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-674262583324244521.post-4215367193265153812009-04-08T08:16:00.006-04:002009-04-08T08:35:34.314-04:00SPAM!<span style="font-family:courier new;"><span style="font-size:180%;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">According to <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page">Wiki</a> </span></span></span><span style=";font-family:courier new;font-size:180%;" ><span style="font-weight: bold;">"Spam is the abuse of electronic messaging systems (including most broadcast mediums, digital delivery systems) to send unsolicited bulk messages indiscriminately."<br /><br />But what is Spam really?<br /><br />Well, according to <a href="http://www.hormelfoods.com/brands/spam/">Hormel</a> </span></span><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:courier new;font-size:180%;" ><em>SPAM®</em></span><span style=";font-family:courier new;font-size:180%;" ><span style="font-weight: bold;"> is a:<br /><br /></span></span><em></em> <span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:courier new;font-size:100%;" >family of products is all around us.

From the beginning, <em>SPAM®</em> was unique—it stood alone in its low price, convenience and delicious taste. It immediately became America’s favorite luncheon meat, and by 1941, 40 million pounds of <em>SPAM®</em> had been sold.</span></p> <p style="font-weight: bold;font-family:courier new;"><span style="font-size:100%;">With America’s entry into World War II, <em>SPAM®</em> luncheon meat was called into action overseas. With Allied forces fighting to liberate Europe, we provided 15 million cans of luncheon meat to troops every week. <em>SPAM®</em> luncheon meat became an essential item in soldiers’ diets, often serving as the last line of defense between battle-weary soldiers and starvation. Following the war, world leaders the likes of Dwight Eisenhower, Margaret Thatcher and Nikita Khrushchev all credited <em>SPAM®</em> luncheon meat for its role in the Allied victory.</span></p><p face="courier new" style="font-weight: bold;"><br /></p><p style="font-weight: bold; font-family: courier new;"><span style="font-size:180%;">Spam's quite a mouth-full!

The model available for that price is a stripper. It's "powered by a 107-hp, 1.6-liter four-cylinder. That's 15 hp less than the regular Versa 1.8, but it's still competitive." It "comes with a standard five-speed manual" transmission. A four-speed automatic is available, but it bumps the cost up to $11,990. Even air conditioning is just optional on the Versa 1.6, costing an additional $1,000. The car is more fuel-efficient than other Versas, with EPA ratings of "26/34 mpg city/highway in the manual and 26/33 with the automatic. That's competitive with everything in the economy segment except the Yaris and the Smart ForTwo."</span></p> <p style="font-family: courier new; font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-size:180%;">The deal significantly undercuts other very-inexpensive new cars. <a href="http://jalopnik.com/5072303/new-pricing-of-9990-makes-2009-nissan-versa-cheapest-new-car-in-usa" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Jalopnik</a> reports, "The cheapest cars currently are the 2009 Chevy Aveo ($12,625), 2008 Kia Rio ($12,145) and 2009 Hyundai Accent ($11,070), putting the Versa well below these competitive models."
