Hello, Sweetie

193,693 Comments

Our poor Doctor. He’s so harangued by River Song. LOL. Even the brief, surprise greeting of, “Hello, Sweetie,” elicits such a hangdog response that you just want to put your arm around The Doctor and tell him that everything will be okay. Being out of the loop, I had no idea there was a current running through fandom with theories about River. I’m pretty bad to take a plot point at face value and just let the story play out, but now I’m dying to get into the conspiracy theorists’ minds.

That’s the big difference with the new series; it’s smarter. Certainly not to disparage RTD’s helm, which was still largely better than anything else on television, but the nuances now are just a bit more mature and cerebral. Perhaps the least cerebral clue, as I mentioned before, is “The Crack” and though I did not spot the crack in the episode, it’s FINALLY being seen by The Doctor in the preview for next week’s episode. Next week’s episode, by the way, looks to be full of excitement, and motion, and intrigue.

In what I consider to be the mark of greatness for a show, a Twitter friend of mine is just getting into Doctor Who, and I’m proud to have him jump on board with Eleven and Amy. Welcome to the greatest show on Earth. Or Gallifrey. Or Raxacoricofallapatorius. Or, well, you get the picture. With The Doctor and the TARDIS, anything is possible!

  17. Greetings! I know this is somewhat off topic but I was wondering which blog platform are you using for this website?
    I’m getting tired of WordPress because I’ve had issues with hackers and
    I’m looking at alternatives for another platform. I would be awesome if
    you could point me in the direction of a good platform.

  38. Mitch Gould Nutritional Products International Gould has “retail” in hi? DNA.

    A thi?d-generation retail professional, Gould learned t?e consumer goods industry f?om his father ?nd grandfather
    wh?l? growing ?p in Ne? York City. ?ne of h?s first
    sales jobs was taking ?rders from neighbors f?r bagels
    ev?ry wee?.

    A? an adult w?t? a career th?t spans more
    than thre decades, Gould moved ?n frrom bagels, cream cheese, ?nd lox to represent m?ny of the leading product manufacturers ?f consumer gopods in America:Igloo,
    Rubbermaid, Sunbeam, Remington, Chapin, Paramount, Miracle-Gro, Native Remedies, Flora Health, Steven Seagal’?
    Lightning Bolt, Body Basix, and Hulk Hogan’? extreme energy granules.

    “? sta?ted in t?e lawn and garden industry butt expanded
    myy horizons ?arly on,” ?aid Gould,
    CEO and founder of Nutritional Products International, ?
    global brand management ffirm based ?n Boca Raton, Fl. “? worked wit? Igloo, Sunbeam, Remington — alll major brands
    t??t hav? ??en leaders inn t?e consumer ?oods
    industry.”

    Eventually, Gould segued ?nto nutritional products.

    “I realized ?arly t?e nutritional supplements ?ere mch mor? th?n just multivitamins,” Gould ?aid.

    “American consumers ?ere ready t?o t?ke dietary supplements ?nd health ?nd wellness products into a w?ole ne? level of retail success.”

    Gould solidified ?is success ?n t?? health and wellness industry t?rough ?is partnerships with A-List celebrities who wante? to develop
    nutreitional products ?nd ??s place inn Amazaon history
    when t?e online ecommerce retailer expanded ?eyond books, music, ?nd electronics.

    “During my career, I attended many galas and charity events ??ere ? met differ?nt celebrities, ?uch as Hulk Hogan and Chuck Liddel,” Gould ?aid, adding that h? eventually partnered
    ?ith s?veral of th??e famous entrepreneurs and developed
    nutritonal products, ?uch ass Hulk Hogan’s Extreme Energy Granules.

    “?orking with th?m to create new health aand wellness
    products ?ave me a f?rst-hand lo?k into the burgeoning nutritional sector,
    ” Gould ?aid. “I realized th?t staying healthy ?as very important to
    my generation. My kids wer? ?ven more focused on staying fit and healthy.”

    When Amazon decided to ad? a health and wellness category, Gould was alr?ady positioned t? place
    more han 150 brands and ev?n more products ?nto the virtuall shelves t?e online giant was addijng evey d?y ?n t??
    early 2000s.

    “? met Jeff Fernandez, ?ho w?s on t?e Amazon team th?t ?as building t?e new category frokm the ground up,” Gould sa?d.
    “I also ha? contacts ?n the health and wellness industry, ?uch
    ?s Kenneth ?. Collins, w?? was vice president ?ff operations f?r Muscle Foods, one of the largest sports nutrition distributors ?n the world.

    Gould ?aid t?is “Powerhouse Trifecta” ?ould not
    have a?ked fo? ? b?tter synergy betw?en the three of them.

    “Thi? was capitapism at ?ts ?est. Amazon demanded new hi?h-quality dietaary
    supplements, ?nd wwe supplied them ?ith more than 150 brands and
    products,” he added.

    T?e “Powerhouse Trifecta” ?orked out soo
    well that Gould eventually hired Fernandez t? wo?k for
    NPI, where he is now president ?f th? company, and Collins, wh? is the ne? eecutive
    vice president of NPI.

    “?? w?rk we?l togeth?r,” Gould ?dded.

    Fernandez, ?ho ?lso worked as a buyesr for Walmart,
    ?aid the thr?e ?f themm ?ave close t?
    75 yrars of retail buying ?nd selling experience.

    “NPI clients benefit f?om our ye?rs off knowledge,” Fernandez ?dded.

    Gould said procuct manufacturers ?re unlikely to f?nd thre?
    professionals wjth ?ur experience represdnting retailers ?nd brands.

    “We know wh?t brands nee t? do, and we understand what retailers ?ant,” Gould said.

    After ?i? succhess ?ith Amazon, Gould founded NPI ?nd solidified hi? ?lace in the dietary supplement and health
    annd wellness sectors.

    “?t wass tike to concentrate ?n health products,” Gould ?aid,
    adding t?at h? ?as wor?ed with more th?n 200 domestic ?nd international brands t?at wanted to launch ne? products
    or expand their presence inn t?e largest consumer markeet iin t?e w?rld: t?e United ?tates.

    “?s I visited the corporate headquarters ?f some off t?e largest retailers in t?? ?orld, I realized tha international brands ?eren’t being
    represented ?n American stores,” Gould ?aid. “I resalized
    t?e?e companies, ?specially the international brands, struggled t? gain ? foothold in American retai stores.”

    ?hen Gould surveyed the challenges confronting international product manufacturers,
    ?? visualized ? solution.

    “The? were burning t?rough tens of thojsands ?f dollars t? launch theiur products,
    ” Gould ?aid. “?? th? tim? they sold t?eir fi?st unit, the had eaten ?w?? at their profit margin.”

    Gould aid the biggest challenge ??s learning t?? new cultures: Americca annd Wall Street.

    “?hey didn’t understand the Amertican consumers, aand they
    ?idn’t ?now ho? American businesses operated,” Goupd ?aid.
    “Th?t i? where I c?me in ?ith NPI.”
    ?o provide th? foreign cokpanies with t?e business support
    the? needed, Gould developed hiss lauded “Evopution of
    Distribution” platform.

    “? brought t?gether eve?ything brands nee?e? to launch their products in the U.?.,
    ” he sa?d. “Instead of opening a new office ?n America, I m?de NPI thei? headquarters ?n the U.?.
    Since ? ?lready h?? ? sales staff in ?lace, they didn’t h?ve to hire ?
    sales team with supporrt staff. ?nstead, NPI did it foor them.”

    Gould ?aid NPI supplied e?ery service t?at brands need?d to sell products iin America ?uccessfully.

    “?ince many of these products ne?ded FDA approval, ? hored a food scientist with mo?e than 10 yea?s experience to streamline the approval
    ?f tthe products’ labels,” Goujld ?aid.

    NPI’s import, logistics, ?nd oprrations manager ?orked with ne? clients
    to make ?ure shipped samplkes ?idn’t endd up in quarantine bby the
    U.S. Customs.

    “Our logistics team ?as decades of experience importing ne? products into th? U.S.
    to our warehouse ?nd then shipping them to retail buyers ?nd retailers,” Gould ?aid.
    “NPI ?ffers ? one-st??, turnkey solution to import,
    distribute, ?nd market neew products ?n t?e U.S.”

    ?o provide al? t?e brands’ services, Gould founded ? new company, InHealth Media,
    t? market the brands to consumers ?nd retailers.

    “I saw th? companies wasting thousands ?f dollars on Madison Avenue marketing campaigns
    t?at failed to deliver,” Gould said.

    Instea? of outsourcing marketing t? costly agencies orr
    building ? marketing team from scratch, InHealth Media ?orks synergistically ?ith
    ?ts sister company, NPI.

    “InHealth Media’? marketing strategy is perfectly aligned with NPI’s rtail expansion plans,
    ” Gould ?dded. “Togeth?r, we import,
    distribute, and market ne? products across the country by emphasizing speed t? markdt at
    an affordaable ?rice.”

    InHealth Media r?cently increased ?ts marketing egforts
    ?? adding national ?nd regional TV promotiion t? ?ts services.

    “Lifestyle TV hosts are the original social media influencers,” Goulpd sai?.
    “Our clients are getting phenomenal coverage that can reach more than 100 million TV households in America. In addition, we are giving them high-quality TV promotions.

    Gould said IHM also has increased its emphasis on “earned media,” which is when journalists and bloggers offer coverage for free instead of the pay and play model that exists in many formats today.

    “We have access to thousands of media professionals that we reach out to on a regular basis,” Gould said. “Because our clients have created innovative products, we have been able to get them coverage in top trade publications and general mass websites, such as HGTV, Forbes, and Vitamin Retailer.

    “You cannot buy this kind of credibility, prestige, and coverage because it is not for sale,” Gould said. “Our team has developed contacts with these major news outlets, which is how they found out about our clients’ products.”

    NPI works with large and small product manufacturers.

    “We emphasize timeliness and affordability,” he said. “We know all the costs, so there are no surprises. When the brand sells its first product to a consumer, they have the profit margin they set as a goal months earlier.”

    Gould is proud of his “Evolution of Distribution” platform.

    “I developed it to help international brands succeed,” Gould said.

    During the years, Gould successfully used his “Evolution of Distribution” to help new brands, such as Scitec Nutrition and Native Remedies, both of which succeeded in conquering the U.S. market..

    “We saw that NPI had lots of experience in helping companies get a good foothold in the U.S. Working together, NPI has been instrumental in introducing us to various key distribution channels (including The Vitamin Shoppe),” said a Scitec Nutrition executive.

    Native Remedies also benefited from NPI’s “Evolution of Distribution.”

    “We are thrilled to have our products available at these top retailers,” said George Luntz, then president and co-founder of Native Remedies. “It is great to have a business partner like NPI helping to expand our market reach. We expect this to be a banner year for us.”

    Gould said he is proud that these companies succeeded with NPI’s help.

    “This is what NPI does,” Gould said. “We find innovative and creative health, wellness, and beauty products, and the NPI and IHM teams work together to introduce them to consumers and retailers.”

  48. With havin so much content do you ever run into any issues of plagorism or copyright violation? My site has
    a lot of unique content I’ve either written myself or outsourced but it seems a lot of it is popping it
    up all over the internet without my permission. Do you know any techniques to help reduce content from being
    ripped off? I’d truly appreciate it.
