Message Decision for Close Up

...Message decision for Close up Close Up began as a revolutionary brand. It’s very first formula was the bright red, spicy cinnamon-flavoured gel. At a time when white toothpaste was indicative of good toothpaste, Close Up introduced the gel quality which slowly and steadily gained popularity and prominence worldwide. Close-Up toothpaste was different in other ways from its inception. It was also the first U.S. toothpaste to combine mouthwash and toothpaste into one product. Close-Up toothpaste debuted in 1967. From the beginning, Close-Up has been marketed with a sexual undertone. Advertisements for Close-Up gel toothpaste always included cuddling couples with bright white smiles. Today's Close-Up toothpaste advertisements promise to give you "the confidence to be playful during close encounters". In the earlier times, Close Up also focused on competing with the white toothpastes and therefore focused more on telling their consumers that their product has more of fluoride content, telling which makes the consumers think that the toothpaste has that essential component which is required for healthy teeth. As an extra, Close Up focused on making it a one for all toothpaste, so the commercials focused on telling them that the toothpaste can also function as a mouth wash which was something unique that they were offering over the other products. From the very onset, Close Up had focused on being a brand of toothpaste which has been responsible for the increased confidence...

...1887 witnessed a rare moment in the history of publishing in Kerela when Deepika, (Nazrani Deepika- as it was initially named) India's first Malayalam Newspaper was first published. A marvel at that time, it was the realization and fulfillment of a long-cherished dream of many, which its Founder Editor Fr. Emmanuel Nidhiry (Nidhirikal Mani Kathanar), a renowned priest and perceptive, creative thinker of those times, initiated and shaped.The newspaper was initially printed on a crude, hand-made wooden press built by the legendary and far-sighted visionary Carmelite Monk, Fr. Kuriakose Elias Chavara (now Blessed Chavara) at Mannanam; a remote hamlet near the town of Kottayam in Central Kerela over a quarter century before then. This event further marked the epoch-making but humble dawn of organized, elite, free press journalism in Kerela. The Carmelites of Mary Immaculate (CMI) congregation managed the newspaper till 1989, when it was converted into a Limited Company with public participation named Rashtra Deepika Ltd.; with a view to giving it fresh impetus, added professionalism and new ethos. The newspaper's founders had high and noble ambitions for this unique project that served as a major milestone in the evolution and advancement of literacy in Kerela. Under the dynamic leadership of Fr. Emmanuel Nidhiri, (a versatile genius and renowned philosopher of those times) and his team of thinkers, Nazrani Deepika marched unflinchingly over the years into the 20th Century, growing in...

Experiencing Bollywood

...Experiencing Bollywood: An Avant-garde Attempt Introduction Bollywood has been characterised for its larger than life plots, elaborate song and dance sequences, melodramatic acting which underpins the Indian social framework. With the advent of globalisation, it has paved way for a wider variety of film genres and has managed to reach out to audiences beyond the Indian diaspora. Constantly pushing the envelope at various junctures, the Bollywood phenomenon has become prominent in the world today. The primary mode in which Bollywood is encountered is through cinemas. Cinema has the unique ability to interact with its audiences with such intimacy and immediacy that gives filmmakers the access to communicate their work, creativity and ideas to the audiences with such ease. It has been a medium where social frameworks and modernity has been successfully transmitted to its audience thus far, standing testament to Bollywood’s popularity. Sprinkling magic dust and constructing fantasy through spectacle, Bollywood has managed to merge the reality with fiction for the audiences’ gaze. Moreover, this sensory experience of ‘watching’ Bollywood movies has managed to dissolve and reconstruct the boundaries of the cinema as a public place of consumption. In so doing, the cinema-going element has defined Bollywood and how audiences experience it – association of cinematic practices and cinematic image. This paper aims to textualize this experience, as observed and understood by...

Microbial Cell Factories 2012, 11:116 http://www.microbialcellfactories.com/content/11/1/116 RESEARCH Open Access Influence of fermentation conditions on the surface properties and adhesion of Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG Gurjot Deepika1, Esther Karunakaran2, Claire R Hurley3, Catherine A Biggs2 and Dimitris Charalampopoulos1* Abstract Background: The surface properties of probiotic bacteria influence to a large extent their interactions within the gut ecosystem. There is limited amount of information on the effect of the production process on the surface properties of probiotic lactobacilli in relation to the mechanisms of their adhesion to the gastrointestinal mucosa. The aim of this work was to investigate the effect of the fermentation pH and temperature on the surface properties and adhesion ability to Caco-2 cells of the probiotic strain Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG. Results: The cells were grown at pH 5, 5.5, 6 (temperature 37°C) and at pH 6.5 (temperature 25°C, 30°C and 37°C), and their surfaces analysed by X-ray photoelectron spectrometry (XPS), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and gel-based proteomics. The results indicated that for all the fermentation conditions, with the exception of pH 5, a higher nitrogen to carbon ratio and a lower phosphate content was observed at the surface of the bacteria, which resulted in a lower surface hydrophobicity and reduced adhesion levels to Caco-2 cells as compared to the control fermentation (pH 6.5...
