Dove, now for men!
If it wasn't time for the company that supported women for all those years to add men to their diet. Was it really what they wanted to do, or was it that they feel they have for so many years brought the women that would want their product in and now the well has run dry? Maybe, so what did they do for men? Well they brought out 3 different products, shampoo, body wash, and deodorant all coming in three different scents. So for dove on this one it was a possible money growth for the company by attracting men and getting them to possibly shop around for the trusted name Dove. What a great first commercial to help sell your brand new product for men. Dove hired a well known Olympic golden coach and a Stanley Cup winning coach from the Red Wings Mike Babcock. So Dove kicked off Dove Men + Care by hiring a winner which would attract those who want products indorsed by winners or well respected people. This is obviously a media tactic and works on all levels to sell products and hey if the product sells and it is a good product it works for me. But can we say Dove ran into the walls with women and resulted to supplying products to men? Possibly but the profits for those who buy Dove women products will contine to, but since their products aren't limited to just women their sales profit will increase now that they suppy both genders. So maybe this ad doesn't talk about the new product but it is an interview to show that anyone should be comfortable in their own skin and this product just enhances your comfortableness.

Zdeno's cheap shot on Pacioretty
This hit on Max Pacioretty happened on March the 9th, and left him motionless on the ice and he had to be taken off the ice on a stretcher. The league's ruling on the hit was nothing, Chara got away with a potential career ending hit. The hit didn't need to happen Chara didn't have to level him into the metal stantions that hold up the glass. In the result of the hit Pacioretty suffered a severe concussion and a broken 4th vertebra in his neck. The thing that gets me is that Chara didn't get a fine or suspension, but a day later Pavel Kubina got fined 60,000 dollars and got a 2 game suspension for elbowing someone lightly in the head. Okay, well maybe not lightly but Bolland got up and kept playing unlike Pacioretty. This was a headshot on Bolland like Chara's hit was on Pacioretty. Kubina got 2 games and a fine for knocking someone in the head with an elbow and Bolland kept playing, but Chara got nothing for a deadly hit that left Paches motionless on the ice. The league's got to do something how can they not fine Chara and a day later they fine Kubina? There should be a rule for headshots, if someone gets a 5 minute major and a game misconduct there should be a automatic fine and an amount of games the player is suspended for. For all headshots no matter if it is a harmless play like the NHL ruled on this play, there should be a fine and suspension no matter what. Head injuries can kill your career, look at Marc Savard he has had 2 concussions within 1-2 years and they just reported he is having memory issues... This doesn't seem to be a big problem going foreward, it is an enormous one.

Coca-Cola

This is a poster ad for Coca-Cola, trying to sell their popular delicious product to the people. This text comes from Coke. And it is owned by Coke. This text is distributed throughout the public by ads, Coke obviously profits because they profit from their product being sold. The text was made by someone thinking of a catchy way to make people want to buy this product. The production techniques used to create this were thought of in the way of people being dehydrated and with the zip and fizz of Coke this will enhance and give you a refreshing experience. The advertisment sells because if you look in the background the atmosphere looks warm and when its warm people will get thirsty, so therefore the advertisment for Coke in this very spot will do great things for their product. Looking at this photo looks as if mist is squirting out the side of the sign. This also gives reason to believe that they think mist is refreshing and that having a Coke would be just as refreshing as walking by this sign and getting wet. And with the Coke coming out of the container in the sign this is also a reason to believe the mist coming out of the sign will be exactly as amazing as Coke itself.
