A few weeks ago, members of the U.S. True Fit team jetted off to Cologne, Germany where we met our European counterparts to attend Dmexco, the digital marketing exposition and conference.
A warm welcome to you all at #dmexco #2016! https://t.co/j2TiAayzKS · dmexco
As one of world's leading digital conferences, True Fit joined over 1,000 international exhibitors, 50,000 attendees and 570 speakers from various industries including media and marketing, technology, and retail to discuss disruptive trends for business.

book summary:

Book Summary

This book is about how a trouble youth goes to jail then comes out, he's not surprised to see his brothers. They all must get along to survive in this cruel world. They must stay together not separate apart from each other. During the middle they fight but at the end they become stronger than ever. They are more than brothers they are everything even like a mom and a dad. The main characters of the story are named Tyree, Lafayette, and Charlie. Tyr'ee is the oldest of them all then comes Charlie he is a bad kid he went to jail for robbing a candy store for $250.

Setting and Character Comparison:

The N Miracle's Boys: "New Charlie" Ep.1 Part (2/3) · TheMayoHELLO
They are different in a way: by how there are more characters and they didn't have the party. They never said charlie played the guitar, Charlie didn't get beat up at the end of the story. They fight in there room because Charlie doesn't like the room. In the book they didn't say that charlie had cornrows.

Foreshadowing

In the begging his friends treat him with more respect they kissed his shoe they talked to him even hang out with him more. They act like there in a fan club for him. So that clue got me because if they think he's bad they can take advantage of him.

Dear Jacqueline Woodson

.
This book was amazing there's action, drama, fighting, and love in this story. They all come together in this story, they must survive together they must fight together. I have a personal connection with Lafayette we both get treated wrong because were the youngest of the family. I dislike how they are poor they should at least be middle class. Tyree is the oldest he take care of them in a way their parents did. Charlie or [New Charlie] is bad I don't like him as much as Lafayette, he treats his brothers like crap.

“Clinton is far and away the superior candidate.” Tell ‘em, Bernie Sanders! Climate change is the greatest challenge of our generation, and we cannot let Donald Trump or Gary Johnson anywhere near the White House.

Donald Trump is a threat to our planet’s health. He thinks climate change is a “hoax” and has picked Big Oil billionaires to head the Department of Energy and the Environmental Protection Agency if elected. In stark contrast, Hillary Clinton wants to act on climate change and secure a clean energy future for our country. Stand with Hillary to defeat climate change deniers like Trump: http://bit.ly/24tYGE4

Join LCV Action Fund in supporting Hillary Clinton -- the only candidate for president who is committed to tackling climate change on day 1. Proposals from Donald Trump and Gary Johnson would endanger our health and environment. They want to double down on fossil fuels and ignore the urgent need to address climate change. · League of Conservation Voters
We agree with @leonardodicaprio! If you don't believe in #climatechange, you are not fit for public office.

Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome -- Through the baby's eyes

Providing a perspective of those who cannot speak for themselves. This offers a look at what it is really like to be a newborn suffering from drug withdrawal, and how we can use the Social Learning Theory to help mother's dealing with opiate addiction.

Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome · Clearfield Jefferson
What is Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome (NAS)? This video provides facts about NAS diagnoses in infants and talks about the symptoms and risks associated with NAS baby's. It is a wonderful educational video for those who might not know about NAS and the implications it will have for a newborn. It also talks about treatment plans for NAS infants and discusses the ways in which we determine the severity of the diagnoses.
Stories Not Secrets: Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome · Michigan Supreme Court
This video addresses the Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome (NAS) epidemic in the united states. It is part of a collaborative project of several health, human services, legal and community organizations in the Michigan area. Several moms tell their stories of their experiences as a pregnant woman addicted to opiates, and the pain they endured watching their babies suffer through debilitating withdraw symptoms. Several health care professionals speak of the importance of this issue and emphasize that resolution will require joint efforts from governmental and health care professionals.
The simple fact that this rate has quadrupled over time shows the severity of this growing problem. It presents terrifying statistics in the growing trend across the United States. Prescriptions for painkillers are being handed out like candy, and while pharmaceutical companies are reaping the benefit, it is damaging families and causing major deficits in governmental healthcare funding.
In this tweet, a young man speaks of the issues he has faced because of his mother's drug abuse during her pregnancy. It is heartbreaking to see and hear real stories of those who now how to live with the consequences of another's actions. It is important here to recognize the risk he might have for future addiction issues. This theory could be used in helping him recognize good decisions over bad, and how important it is to wisely choose your peers....
This chart provides a staggering visual of the effects NAS has on our healthcare system. You can see that even compared with NICU baby's suffering from other health issues, NAS infants cost our healthcare systems and taxpayers an unprecedented amount more than those admitted due to non NAS diagnoses.....
Prevention definitely starts with some sort of intervention. Our society needs to focus on how we can change the circumstances for these addicted mothers through appropriate therapies and available resources. Genetics unfortunately predetermine many issues however, there are many factors that lead to these predisposed issues coming to the surface such as stress or trauma...
The cries of a newborn experiencing withdrawal symptoms are like nothing you have ever heard. I have unfortunately seen the emotional pain that a mother feels watching her newborn in agony. Since Social Learning Theory talks about observation as a tool for change, this in itself, sparks motivation in many mothers and can be helpful in initiating recovery.
The fact that their is an entire month dedicated to this cause speaks volumes.....
This article discusses how Social Learning Theory relates to drug addiction and how this theory can be used to help with recovery and intervention.

This video gives us a small glimpse into the discomfort felt by an NAS infant. You can both see and hear the unsettling feelings the child is experiences. Tremors are just one of the many marked symptoms.

Ici, je vous ferai part du derrière de la scène de ce cours spectaculaire. Au programme : les concepts de base abordés, les impressions des étudiants et, bien sûr, les moments cocasses. Bienvenue dans le monde du cours de la communication des médias !

Storified by Natasha Henry · Mon, Oct 10 2016 16:59:21

Voici un cours très impressionnant par la qualité du contenu et surtout par son interactivité! C'est toujours plaisant de pouvoir mettre en pratique une différente forme de communication en classe, soit via la plateforme médiatique Twitter.
Durant le premier cours, nous avons abordé le sujet des symboles, des icônes et des signes. Tous ces termes, qui nous paraissaient si complexes au départ, nous ont fait voir l'envers du décor de la communication : un système bien plus élaboré que nous le pensons.
C'est une très bonne question que nous nous sommes tous sûrement posée durant le cours où le professeur expliquait quels étaient les symboles et ce qu'ils englobaient. De façon brève, un symbole regroupe 3 termes : le signifiant (manifestation d'un signal physique), le signifié (sens que renvoie le signifiant qui nous permet de comprendre cette manifestation) et le concept (représentation mentale du signifiant et du signifié). Donc, avec une structure comme celle-ci, nous pouvons comprendre pourquoi ce simple mot englobe autant de concepts!
La première invention de la communication est l'écriture. Ça rend les symboles durable #UOIM https://t.co/DLfy196rsX · JiheneChemli
* Correction : ça rend les symboles durables.
Ici, nous avons pu apprendre que le savoir est devenu durable par la transmission et surtout par l'aspect d'enregistrement de l'écriture. Elle est beaucoup plus durable que la communication orale, car elle laisse des traces qui sont ensuite accessibles; ce que l'oralité ne permettait pas.
L'échelle de l'évolution culturelle et médiatique pourrait se séparer en 4 grandes parties : la culture scribale, la culture lettrée, la culture typographique et la culture algorithmique.
Durant l'époque de la culture scribale, l'écriture était considérée comme une méthode de communication complexe. Ce système était établi autour des scribes, car ils possédaient la connaissance de l'écriture et de la lecture. Pour faire fonctionner ce système, il fallait également la contribution de connaissances systématiques comme l'ingénierie, l'étude du mouvement des astres, etc. Donc, cette culture accordait du pouvoir aux personnes possédant une connaissance de l'écriture, mais aussi aux personnes possédant une connaissance spécifique (connaissances systématiques).
* Correction : Si on regarde comment le langage a évolué, on pourrait penser qu'il est très complexe, mais il n'y a que 26 lettres pour tout exprimer.
Plus un empire utilisera un système de symboles simple, plus il sera puissant. Pourquoi ? Il y a quelques raisons, par exemple, en voici une : la transmission du savoir de ces symboles. Si le système de ceux-ci est trop complexe, avec le temps, une population pourrait opter pour un système plus simple et mener le leur dans l'oubli.
Correction : Encore impressionnée que ça prend 10-15 ans pour apprendre les hiéroglyphes.

DoWe Really Care? The Chinese Media Coverage of the First Two Presidential Debates

Storified by Dora Pang · Mon, Oct 10 2016 16:59:34

The Daily Show - "The O'Reilly Factor" Gets Racist in Chinatown · The Daily Show with Trevor Noah
The Daily Show published on Oct 7 talked about the presidential election again, but this time they mocked the “O’ Reilly Factor” program from Fox news. The reason why they did this episode is that Fox went to interview people from New York’s Chinatown about how they feel the 2016 election but the interviewees they picked didn’t give the comments they want to hear, so Fox came to a conclusion that Chinese people didn’t care the election. Do Chinese people really don’t care? Or what lies behind the conclusion is how Fox picked the wrong interviewees?
Do Chinese people really don’t care about the election? The answer is definitely positive. Chinese people do care about the result of the 2016 election as Fox mentioned “In the first presidential debate, China was mentioned 12 times.” This essay aims to present how Chinese media covered the 2016 election since we have talked about how western media did all the time in class.
However, when we searched the Internet about the first presidential debate, the “news” Chinese media presented is kind of astonishing. Besides the People’s Daily translated an article about 5 things to watch on debate night from CNN, the Hexun News which is specialized in financial news posted the English-Chinese transcript of the debate, and The Beijing News published an article under the name “Trump lost the first presidential debate in his own way” which used screenshots of popular twitter to illustrate the attitudes of American towards the two candidates. There is nothing new or in-deep we can find through Chinese media.
During the live stream of the second presidential debate, since there is no way for mainland China get access to the live, there are updating key points of the debate published by financial news organization and the interpretation of how this debate will influence the economy also is the major focus of Chinese media.
Looking at the mainstream Chinese media, we can barely see any commentary remarks about the debate results instead there are lot of articles to explain how the election works and what impact this debate have for the election results. So can we say the Chinese media cover the debate more in a “news” style since they don’t have to choose a political position?
The sources of Chinese versions of the election reports come from two parts, the major one is foreign news organizations and the other is the reporters sent by Chinese news organizations. For the first and major source, we can say that the neutrality more depends on the original news outlet, and take a look at the second source, it is fair enough to say Chinese media covered the election in a more neutral stand and what they do is to present the two sides and avoid false equivalence. What’s more, there is no horse racing report when it comes to election of another country though it is almost the same when comes to China’s own “election”.
Back to Han Dynasty, the officials were appointed by the central government, and there is no democratic tradition lies in the history of China. Nowadays, under the governance the CPC, the election system still is a taboo topic among Chinese media and the news organizations always stay in silent about the election results. Therefore, when it comes to the real democratic election, Chinese media don’t have much too say except the election itself and the impact on world economy. But that doesn’t mean we don’t care, millions of Chinese people follow the updates of election news on Weibo or use software to break the censorship to get access to the live debate, whatever the attitudes they hold towards the election, these behaviors themselves are proofs of how much Chinese people care about the election.

Traditional American Values

Storified by LoganPlummer · Mon, Oct 10 2016 16:59:51

A value is a person's principle or standard of behavior. The importance, worth, or usefulness we assign to something reflects our values. There are 13 traditional American values. These values include personal achievement, equality, romantic love, etc.

Out of the 13 the value that means the most to me is personal achievement. In band during my 10th grade year I got all of the flute solos during concert season. It felt good to be rewarded for hard work and it's very important to me to set goals and strive to reach them. Weather it comes in the form of a solo, trophy, medal, or any form it feels nice to strive for something to show that you are good at what you do. It gives me a sense of worth in that what I do has a meaning.

Media has shaped our values in America. Shows exist nowadays like Love and Hip Hop and Mistresses that glorify things like drug use and being unfaithful to your spouse. Media has blurred our sense of morality. Things like gang activity, crime, and violence are becoming more predominant in society and isn't taken as seriously as it should be.

In my social group I asked 4 people of all different age groups ¨How do you define love?¨ I come from a religious family, so when I asked my 68 year old aunt who is very traditional she said ¨Love is when you can speak to God and feel him answer you.¨ As the generations passed in my family love faded from a connection with God to a connection with a spouse. I, being 17, define love as having someone to journey through life with to share experiences.
A Nigerian army soldier holds a Bible in the substance abuse ward of the Federal Neuro Psychiatric Hospital in Maiduguri the capital of Borno State, northeastern Nigeria on September 16, 2016. The Federal Neuro Psychiatric Hospital has seen a surge in patients with disorders ranging from PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder), depression, substance abuse, psychosis and anxiety since the beginning of the Boko Haram insurgency in 2009. In July, the United Nations said nearly 250,000 children under five could suffer from severe acute malnutrition this year in Borno state alone and one in five -- some 50,000 -- could die. But despite the huge numbers involved, the situation has received little attention compared with other humanitarian crises around the world -- even within Nigeria. / AFP / STEFAN HEUNIS (Photo credit should read STEFAN HEUNIS/AFP/Getty Images) · STEFAN HEUNIS
Values in America are becoming blurred. To some people, these 13 values are very unimportant and almost non-existent. We have to learn to coexist. We need to except each other as human beings. Crime, drug use, and gang activity shouldn't be the accepted norm. But now things that are and are not accepted are being switched around. Something must be done to restore balance in the morals of citizens befoe we enter a downward spiral as a society.

Expect More. Pay Less.


Target's Guests

Target's Primary Current Guests : Mothers
Gender: Women
Age: 35-44, 25-34
Race: Other Race/multiple classification, White, and White only
HHI: $150,000+ and $75,000-$149,000
Target's Loss in Guests:
As of April 19, Target implemented a new policy requiring customers to use mixed sex changing rooms and bathrooms. This decreased revenue by 7.2% for the second quarter down to $680 million.
More than 1.4 million customers have joined American Family Association’s Nationwide boycott as they believe women and children are in danger of sexual predators.
"We still believe Target doesn’t value the safety of families because they’ve refused to reverse this dangerous policy,” Wildmon said.

Target's Gain in Guests:
According to CEO, Brian Cornell, Target's guests are going to increasingly be a Hispanic shopper. 54% of Hispanic Millennials defined Target as their "favorite" store. Because the Baby department is one of the largest department in Target, they are planning to create an ad for these goods in Spanish yet played on an English channel. Below is a video showing the commercial, #SinTraducción, that Target made to target Hispanics to the Baby Department.

Additionally, Target has opened up CityTargets and ExpressTargets catering to people living in the Urban setting. This is aimed to help move away from the typical Target "mom" shopper and expand into various demographics.

Data Breach:
In 2013, Target experienced an online attack where up to 40 million of its customer's credit and debit card information was stollen. The caused doubts for many loyal customers. Target, however, has made a promise to their customers to help gain back customer loyalty. This promise involves "bolstering protection of customer data, including setting up a protocol for responding to online security threats and providing data security training to employees." Additionally, it was decided in March of 2015 that customers affected by this Breach can gain up to $10,000, to make up for damages.
