In our connected world, many people actively block content on their digital devices and skipping video has become second nature, especially among younger viewers. It's widely suggested that marketers need to be much more creative in developing digital ads if they expect to overcome blocking and beat the skipping.
"Our research shows that ads consumers engage with perform much better. Ads that fail to engage have a one-in-three chance of driving a sale, and those that consumers do engage with deliver a 75% chance of creating a sale"
Yet, many advertisers create the same product messages they've sent for years, not just on digital platforms but across every channel. Kantar recently conducted research to explore a typical week's advertising across TV, pre-roll and social media. We found that almost two-thirds of the ads reviewed delivered an explicit product message.
This approach isn't conducive with the way consumers make most of their decisions about brand choice. Functional 'message communication' has only a modest impact on sales because the approach tends to focus on specific benefits or reasons to believe that may not be relevant, or compelling, to the consumer – or, even worse, may not register.
As much as we may not like it, people's engagement with advertising is shallow, and at best they will take out a broad idea or feeling about the brand from the vast bulk of communications. We believe brands should stop focusing on detailed messages and put more effort into building emotional relevance and creative engagement, which can have a much greater impact on sales.
Our research shows that ads that consumers engage with perform much better. Ads that fail to engage have a one-in-three chance of driving a sale, and those that consumers do engage with deliver a 75% chance of creating a sale.
It's time to move beyond the message, to stop selling product features and to focus on building brands, instead. To help brands make that leap, we've identified five key creative development rules that can be used successfully by brands around the world.
Brands that are seen to be meaningfully different have the greatest chance of financial success. While the relative importance of being meaningful, different and salient differs by category and country, all brands should set out to deliver impressions that are meaningfully different.
Sustainable competitive advantage comes from building a brand's emotional meaningful difference. Emotional meaningfulness is about creating affinity for the brand, and emotional difference is about a brand behaving in a way that makes it seem more dynamic or progressive than other brands.
The way a brand communicates can be valuable in conveying meaningful difference. Meaningful impressions are often suggested, or demonstrated, rather than claimed. One powerful solution is to identify a purpose for the brand – one that it can legitimately be linked with – and build creative around the purpose.
A good example came from Amazon in 2016. Its 'Priest and Imam' ad celebrates interfaith friendship, airing first on TV and then achieving viral fame. When we researched the ad for this project, the response was very positive. It triggered very strong emotional responses, with enjoyment in the top 20% of ads tested in the UK, and the app usage drove strong linkage to the Amazon brand. Most importantly, the ad's Power Contribution score was in the top quarter of ads tested, showing that it gave people reasons to be predisposed to Amazon in the future.
People are bombarded with thousands of brand messages every day, but few of them are consciously processed. They simply don't care much about brands or ads, so their brains filter them out. There are two implications for marketers here. First, ads need to have instant meaning. When developing ads based on an idea or feeling, make sure these can be easily grasped. The viewer shouldn't have to stop to think it through. Second, we need to make people feel something. People feel first and think second, so ads which take an emotional route have a better chance of breaking through. This is why ads that generate emotional responses are more likely to generate sales effects.
This emotion doesn't always have to be positive, but when the brand does play a positive emotional role in the narrative, it can lead to associative learning, which does pair the brand with positive feelings.
People are fascinated by stories. They present the opportunity to engage audiences, to leave lasting memories, and to provoke emotional (and rational) responses. Our work has shown that ads that use storytelling are more involving and help make the ads more noticeable and more memorable, both of which contribute to sales. And we've seen that ads that feature stories create higher levels of expressiveness, which has a direct linkage to a lift in sales. Yet, fewer than four in 10 ads that we studied used storytelling.
The most viewed and most viral ads of 2016 provided many great examples of storytelling that benefit the brand. One such ad was retailer John Lewis's Christmas ad 'Buster the Boxer', in which we see a little girl's Christmas present – a trampoline – enjoyed by wild animals and then by her dog Buster, on Christmas Day. This story works so well for John Lewis on a number of levels. It is thoroughly enjoyable, easy to understand, and differentiates the brand from other retailers. It has the ability, not only to generate short-term sales, but also to support the brand's longer-term equity.
It is important to place the right creative with the right people, in the right channel, on the right platform, and at the right time. That's a lot to get right, but it's critical to delivering the right impressions.
When choosing channels, we need to consider not only where people's eyes are but their attitudes to ads in that channel. While people are more connected than ever through mobile devices, they don't appreciate ad intrusion: poor channel choice can actually form a negative impression.
We're not saying that digital shouldn't be used, rather it has to be used effectively. One of the key ways to get digital right is to think about the user at the point of exposure: what is their need state or goal and what sort of creative will complement that rather than disrupt it? We have championed the use of digital formats that acknowledge consumers' control. This does mean avoiding non-skippable formats where they're still available.
We have argued that great advertising can focus less on an explicit message and more on the implicit building of impressions. This is the start of a virtuous circle: by limiting the number of facts or product messages, ads can be more engaging, and the means of engagement can be part of the impressions left behind.
We have found that the single best predictor of in-market sales effects for ads is branding. Creating an engaging film without branding simply won't add value to the brand (Figure 1).
This is also consistent with evidence on the importance of 'mental availability' for brands. Ads with weak branding have no chance to boost the ease with which brands come to mind at the point of decision. Our evidence shows that ads with a strong narrative only result in motivation if they are also well branded (Figure 2).
One of the most viral ads from 2016, from Volkswagen in Norway, showed a driver backing up his car and trailer at high speed – through parking lots, roundabouts and intersections – to demonstrate the trailer assist feature. Much of the ad focuses on the reaction of other drivers and pedestrians.
In the UK, the Volkswagen ad is seen as very highly involving and facial coding reveals that emotional response builds during the ad, particularly towards the end when the secret is revealed. The ad clearly suggests ease of reversing but the focus is on the trailer, not the car. Despite the logo appearing on-screen for the duration of the film, branding is poor, so the ad has limited ability to build impressions.
Another Volkswagen ad used a more conventional storytelling approach, in which horses in a field laugh hysterically as one man fails to reverse-park his horse trailer, but the horses are quickly silenced when another driver with trailer assist does it perfectly the first time.
This second ad, with its storytelling approach, is highly engaging, and generated the highest levels of smiles in the ads we covered in this project. The ad is well branded: ultimately, it's the Tiguan that shuts the horses up – and it suggests ease of reversing more strongly than the previous example, making the brand far more likely to be seen as different.
Coming back to our second rule around working with the brain, we know that people often partially engage with an ad but won't watch it to the end. This reinforces the need to brand before disengagement, particularly in digital channels that give consumers the option to skip.
There are two good ways to do this: make the brand essential to an emotionally powerful storyline, either through use or as a catalyst to an outcome, or through the use of easily recognisable brand cues – visual, aural or stylistic – which require no effort to register with viewers.
In video advertising, brands can't leave branding to the end because viewers shut down and are distracted by the ad or content that follows. This doesn't necessarily mean that the product needs to appear early and often in TV ads. Although branding early on is important in digital ads, simply showing the brand on-screen or as a superimposition isn't enough unless it plays a role in the narrative.
The Skittles 2016 Super Bowl ad 'Portrait' achieves strong branding in a number of ways. The action in the ad revolves around a portrait of singer-songwriter Steven Tyler, of Aerosmith fame, which is made of Skittles. This is done in Skittles' unmistakable, quirky style and tone of voice. The ad closes with a variation on the familiar line, 'rock the rainbow, taste the rainbow'.
On the other hand, an ad for Emirates airline, 'Hello Tomorrow', achieved very poor branding. The brand was revealed at the end of a 60-second series of vignettes based on 'six degrees of separation', which viewers found confusing, or lacking instant meaning. Our behavioural analysis showed that if people were to view online, most would have skipped before the brand was revealed.
In addition, facial coding analysis undertaken with our partner Affectiva showed that even if the brand had appeared earlier, the Emirates ad would have struggled to gain impact, based on people's lack of engagement.
Getting the branding right in ads is a key principle, but even great branding can't save an ad that doesn't also follow the other four golden rules outlined above.
Ads that are emotionally engaging, and build memorable and lasting impressions are more effective than those that do not. Engaging advertising that is developed to work with the brain can seed ideas, associations and feelings that are triggered in people during the purchase process, long after the ad was seen.
Ads that deliver an explicit message won't benefit brands to the same degree as an ad focused on building impressions. When there is a need to reinforce functional benefits, deliver the message in a creative way. In general, 'show, don't tell'. People tend not to remember explicit messages without lots of repetition – but a creative demonstration will help improve memorability.
No matter which ad format is used, it's essential for the ad to be tied to the brand; the brand needs to be integrated into the ad to benefit the brand.

Larry Clark's Marfa GirlNovember 28, 2012
Not sure why I haven't heard anything about this new film by Larry Clark. Marfa Girl seems to have won a major award at the Rome Film Festival this year.
Clark has decided to forgo theatrical distribution and is streaming the film 24/7 on his website for the very reasonable price of $5.99.
I haven't watched it yet and there is no official trailer as far as I can see. The clip above is the only footage I could find, but it still might be worth watching when time permits.

The "Boat House" is now an Airbnb
Always wanted to spend the night inside of Milwaukee's beloved "Boat House?" Well, now you can because it is now available for rental via Airbnb.
Steve and Nola Hitchcock Tilton bought the Edmund B. Gustdorf Boathouse, 3138 N. Cambridge Ave., earlier this year and spent the summer remodeling the space. They hired longtime family friend, Veronika Kunath, to mange the Airbnb and to maintain the house.
"The entire Boat House was painted, the floors and ceilings were refinished, but it's still tastefully nautically themed," says Kunath.
The house is modeled after a 1910 gasoline motor launch and was allegedly built as a boat, but it never sailed. It has two levels, sleeps six and rents for $285 per night.
"We're really excited to have The Boat House a part of Milwaukee culture again," says Kunath.

I have never considered myself a hugger of trees.
I certainly enjoy them, they are in part what makes the Port City Trail such a wonderful walk, but as far as climbing trees to save them, never thought of myself as that extreme.
Live in Gulf County long enough, though, and that spirit can arise at any time.
The recent "Turtle and Trash" exhibit at the new arts center in Port St. Joe was a vivid demonstration, with artistic flair, of what our species can inflict on the rest of the world that surrounds.
And turning on news reports and observing the wildly destructive power of nature, in wildfires that are destroying lives in the west, in flood waters destroying lives in the Northeast, even wildfires destroying lives just down the road, a pause is almost required.
One question certainly comes to mind: after so many years, when will Gulf County and a hurricane become more directly acquainted again.
This is the hottest year on record, which follows the three next warmest years on record.
This summer Death Valley recorded the highest temperature ever documented by humans.
Whether or not one believes the vast majority of scientists concerning climate change, something is going on that our species has not seen before.
And it is unnerving.
But, to the focus on the point here, Leave No Trace, it seems from this tiny corner of the world, is really about more than tagging and taking items, objects, off the beaches.
It really is about a state of mind, about a consciousness to leave no marks, to care for what makes life here so enjoyable, so pleasurable, relaxing, pick one or pick all.
On the peninsula beaches or the sidewalks of downtown there are signs Leave No Trace should pertain to a lot more than sand.
It is almost depressing, and ruinous for the walk, to meander the Port St. Joe Trail around Buck Griffin Lake, this body of water meant to filter stormwater on its way to St. Joseph Bay, and observe the trash, the plastic, along its shores.
It's baffling that anybody who would make the effort to enjoy this stretch in the middle of Port St. Joe, to fish, to walk, to bike, would be so careless, unthinking about tossing away a plastic bag, a can of adult beverage.
The animals that often lay waste to the trail have an excuse, no concept of protecting the outdoors; we humans have none.
If we wanted to dial this down even further to the very small, if it was allowed and not incredibly dangerous.
I am consistently tempted to get out of my car or off my bike, retrieve a cigarette butt and return it to the simpleton in the car ahead who apparently figures somebody comes by once a day to pick all those up.
Okay, maybe there is a tree-hugger chromosome hiding somewhere in my cells after all.
In any case, reading and watching news reports out of South Florida it is jarring to see waters turned to lime green by algae, a situation the governor deemed a state of emergency earlier this week.
The cause is, in a way, beside the point.
This should not be about blame, about a winner and a loser. It's not a MMA contest.
Septic systems certainly seem anathema for coastal areas and development and sugar production on a massive scale is likely not nurturing the land, either.
What it is is a tragedy for the wildlife and natural beauty of that area of the state, a state that millions flock to each year to bask in that natural beauty and wildlife.
And that opportunity is being impacted by impacts that, on surface, seem little to do with that wildlife and beauty.
Those concerns can migrate to those living near St. Joseph Bay, who have seen scallop season interrupted the past two years by algae blooms of mysterious origin.
Not in their impacts, but in the causes.
I just finished re-reading Bill Bryson's "A Short History of Almost Everything" and toward the end is a line from a prominent scientist about this planet we reside on.
"One planet, one experiment," the Nobel Prize winner said.
This is it.
There are no more St. Joseph Bay's in the closet, no spare Gulf of Mexicos lying around.
There is no reset button.
And that, from this tiny little corner of the county and opinion, seems the real point of Leave No Trace.
It's a philosophy, a frame of mind, to which removing the tents and chairs from the beach at night, giving the sand, the turtles and the like a break, is just a small, small part.
And maybe as much as something to enforce, it is something to market.
Just a suggestion, but the next Tourist Development Council spring campaign, instead of the highly successful "Engulf" or "Inspire," should be "InHonor" with folks submitting Instragram photos showing them doing honor to the local environment.
Picking up tents left behind on the beach, planting a tree, gathering up litter along the coast, whatever suits the fancy.
Okay, maybe I could be called a hugger of trees.
I'll blame the canvas I am surrounded by each day.

Climbing "The Loop"
Even the powerful former West Side Lumber narrow-gauge 3-truck Shay #9 can't handle a 9-car train by itself up the steep grades of the Georgetown Loop Railroad. Diesel #130, a 500 hp General Electric 52-tonner originally built for U.S. Gypsum, lends a hand.
The train is traversing the high curved trestle that is the big show-stopper along the route. Visible at bottom is the lower portion of the railroad which describes a full spiral as it climbs up alongside Clear Creek from Georgetown CO to Silver Plume.

7 cool places I've watched icehockey in Europe – and the stories behind
I am a hockeyfan as much as a travelooney and I love to catch a local game when staying in cities around Europe. I have even travelled especially to attend some games. As much as I love the game itself, I love to feel the different atmospheres and traditions around the clubs and their arenas. Each club has its own culture and connection to the city it belongs to, which is why watching sports abroad goes well with the general idea of travel experiences.
I have been following my hometown team, Odense Bulldogs, for 20 years now – but have also been lucky to get some cool hockey experiences around Europe.
Here are 7 European cities where I have watched the greatest game on earth:
Stockholm, Sweden
Watching hockey inside a giant golf ball – that's what it's like to attend a game in 'The Globe' arena in the capital of Sweden. This is definitely still one of the most unique arenas in Europe, despite being opened back in 1989.
I have had the pleasure of watching a few games in there, 3 to be exact, and all of them featuring teams from the American National Hockey League (NHL). To promote the league several teams started off seasons in Europe from 2007 to 2011, and two times I went to Stockholm with my team mates to watch the games.
San Jose Sharks vs Columbus Blue Jackets in 2010 – and two games in 2011: New York Rangers playing against both the Anaheim Ducks and the Los Angeles Kings.
It was a treat to watch some of the world's best players in one of the world's great arenas – and also Stockholm is always worth a visit.
As hockeyfans know, the sport is very big in Sweden and other than the NHL games, I've watched local Swedish clubs play in Växjö and Linköping.
Cardiff, Wales (UK)
Hockey was kind of the reason I discovered Cardiff and Wales in the first place – since it was a Welsh friend in connection with hockey that led me to know about the city. In 2007 I even chose to move there for a few months and naturally started following my new "hometown team", The Cardiff Devils.
At that point the club's home, Wales National Ice Rink, had just been replaced by a temporary arena later to be known as The Big Blue Tent (due to the "walls" being made of thick blue plastic). And getting a new permant arena proved to be problematic for the Devils, which caused that the "temporary" rink to be used for 10 years.
During this time-stretch I saw the Devils play several games. Most of them while living in Cardiff in through 2012 and 2013. Finally, early in 2016, the Devils could move into the new Ice Arena Wales and I can't wait to get back and watch a game there.
Wales and icehockey is not normally connected in most people's mind, but the passion for the game is surprisingly big and the club has been doing really well in the best British league for years.
Hamburg, Germany
The German DEL league is among the best in Europe and being relatively close to the Danish border, Hamburg is a great place for us Danes to go to watch hockey on a big scale. The Germans are just amazing when it comes to anything to do with shows and sports events – and the fans are among the most colourful and passionate in Europe.
That makes it very entertaining to watch the local Hamburg Freezers play in their big arena, which is changing names after who is sponsoring it. At the moment it's known as Barclaycard Arena and it has room for almost 13.000 fans for hockeygames.
The club was established as late as 2002, and I saw the Freezers play for the first time back in 2008. Since then I have watched a couple of games in Hamburg, one of them being a pre-seaon game between the local Freezers and The Los Angeles Kings.
And this club takes its name seriously, having snow-machines nicely springkling snow above the spectators before the players enter the arena.
Berlin, Germany
Together with Hamburg, Berlin is the most entertaining place I have been watching icehockey live – atmosphere-wise. The fans there are just amazing, singing and dancing almost all the way through the games. Impressive.
Eisbären Berlin or Berlin Polar Bears are extremely popular in the German capital, and I saw them play for the first time back in 2007. Back then they still played in an old worn-out arena, but in 2008 they moved into their new O2 World arena, recently renamed the Mercedes-Benz Arena. An arena with a capacity of more than 14.000 spectators for hockey.
Since the first game I have seen a couple of games in their new home, and I try to catch a game whenever I visit the city in the season. Each time I have been impressive with the rousing atmosphere from the fans – not at least when they sing along to their cult-like club song which translates to; "Hey, we want to see the icebears".
With 7 national DEL championships between 2005 and 2013, the fans have had plenty to celebrate.
Cologne, Germany
In the western part of Germany, Kölner Haie (The Cologne Sharks) are often among the best clubs in the German DEL league, and they play their games in the biggest icehockey arena outside North America. No less than 18.500 spectators can attend the sharks feast on opposing teams in the impressive Lanxess Arena.
That the arena design looks a bit like a shark is really cool too, with its gigantic steel arch supporting the roof. This is definitely one of the coolest places I have watched an icehockey game.
I did so during an Interrail trip in the beginning of 2012, where I was lucky to catch a game while exploring this interesting city. Ironically Cologne beat Berlin 2-1 in that game, after which I went to Berlin a few days later and watched them play too.
Prague, Czech Republic
Like Germany and Sweden, the Czech Republic is a great European destination for hockeylovers, so when I made it to Prague during my Interrail trip in 2012, I just had to catch a game. The capital has two rivalling clubs – HC Sparta Praha and HC Slavia Praha, and I came just as Sparta was in the playoffs.
The proud capital club was facing Brno from the southern part of the Czech Republic, and I was lucky to secure a ticket with help from the tourist office in downtown.
At that time the club was still playing their homegames at the old Tipsport Arena from 1962, with a capacity of 13.000 spectators – but it was a great authentic hockey experience even though the hometeam suffered a defeat.
Just this season the spartans have moved to the new modern O2 Arena. One of Europe's most modern hockey arenas with a capacity of around 17.000 people. Their rivals from Slavia used to have their home-ice there, but moved out as they were relegated from the best Czech league.
Vienna, Austria
I was lucky enough – by pure chance – to witness the opening-game of Vienna's completely renovated Albert Schultz Eishalle. I was staying in the beautiful Austrian capital in 2011, when I by coincidence noticed in the local newspaper that the Vienna Capitals were to open their new arena the same night.
I wasn't familiar with Austrian hockey, but decided to try to get a ticket, which sent me on an expedition across the Donau river – to the suburb of Donaustadt. After locating the club's offices in what seemed like a regular apartment building near the arena, I was told it wasn't necessary to buy in advance and that I should just show up at the arena in good time.
So I did, and got to see the local heroes beat the Finnish team Oulun Kärpät 3-2 after penalty shots. A game in the European Trophy tournament, and an exciting game in a quite unique arena, as daylight comes through in both ends.
I definitely wouldn't mind catching another game there one day.

TransAmerica Medicare Supplement Plans
TransAmerica Medicare Supplemental plans have been serving United States citizens for almost five decades. TransAmerica Life Insurance Company is a member of the Aegon group.
Their subsidiaries are Stonebridge Life Insurance and TransAmerica Premier. Based out of San Francisco CA, they were found in 1904 and now serve over 19.5 million customers.
They have a ton of experience when it comes to helping seniors with their Medicare Supplement policies. Conservative rate increases make Transamerica Medicare Supplement plans a popular choice.
TransAmerica Medicare Supplement Plans
Supplement plans will cover some expenses like deductibles and co-payments that are not covered by Original Medicare.
TransAmerica is well-known for their work in both life insurance and Medicare supplement plans.
Medicare supplements offer comprehensive coverage to traditional Medicare ensuring the best health care for beneficiaries.
TransAmerica Medigap Insurance Eligibility & Enrollment
TransAmerica Medicare Supplement eligibility requires that you're above 65 years old or living with a disability.
Living with long- term conditions like end-stage renal disease, lateral sclerosis, or Lou Gehrig's disease means approval.
Transamerica Medigap plans require enrollment in Medicare Part A and B.
You should apply during your Open Enrollment Period (OEP). Usually, the OEP lasts for six months.
It starts three months before your 65th birthday, and it ends three months after you attain 65 years of age.
Take advantage of the Open Enrollment Period because:
- During this time, all insurance carriers are required by law to sell you any plan regardless of your health condition
- The carriers will not charge you a premium higher than the normal rates
- Enrolling in a TransAmerica Supplement during Open Enrollment will mean guaranteed coverage.
If the Open Enrollment Period ends before you enroll, the insurance carriers may deny your application. Similarly, some carriers may accept your application but charge you a higher monthly premium.
Part B recipients that lose Medicaid qualify for GI rights on a Medigap policy in California and Texas. Beneficiaries in Oregon can enroll in Plan A or F with GI rights.
Health Benefits Covered by Transamerica Medigap
These plans complement Original Medicare rather than substitute it. This is because it only provides coverage for the gaps that exist in Original Medicare.
For instance, if Medicare offsets 80% of your medical expenses, a supplement plan may help you pay the remaining 20%.
These plans help you pay for your Part A and Part B coinsurance or co-payment. Furthermore, the plans may cover your medical expenses in a skilled nursing facility or hospice care.
Medical emergency costs in a foreign country may also have some coverage.
Please be aware that policies don't cover your vision care, ear care, and dental care expenses.
TransAmerica Medicare Supplement Insurance Options
Different types of policies offer different benefits. Plans that offer to pay more costs have higher insurance premiums while those that offer fewer benefits are relatively cheap. Each plan letter has to offer the same benefits regardless of the insurance provider who offers them.
Below we examine the different plan options available.
Transamerica Medigap Plan A
Plan A is the most basic of all the Medigap plans. Medigap Plan A covers the hospital coinsurance and includes 365 days of extra coverage after Original Medicare.
It'll also cover the 20% coinsurance left over after Medicare pays its portion of the medical bills.
Transamerica Medigap Plan C
Plan C is identical to Plan F in every way except for excess charge coverage. An excess charge is a 15% charge above the Medicare-approved amount that providers can charge.
This is most popular for Beneficiaries living in states not allowed to bill excess charges.
Medigap Plan C provides Medicare Beneficiaries the basic Medigap benefits and includes:
- Part A hospital deductible for inpatient services
- Skilled nursing facility coinsurance (for days 21 – 100)
- Part B deductible for qualified medical and hospital services, generally for outpatient services
- Foreign travel medical emergency coverage
Although, it should be advised that Plan C, as well as Plan F, is being discontinued. This is due to the Medicare and Chip Reauthorization Act (MACRA). These changes will take place in 2020
Transamerica Medicare Supplement Insurance Plan F
Plan F is considered the full coverage plan of Medicare. Transamerica Medicare Supplement Insurance Plan F picks up the beneficiary's portion of the cost for Medicare-approved services.
Most beneficiaries choose this plan because they want easy to understand the coverage that pays for everything. Plan F is truly the most comprehensive Medigap on the market.
Medigap Supplement Plan F benefits include the basic Medigap benefits and includes:
- Part A hospital deductible for inpatient services
- Skilled nursing facility coinsurance (for days 21 – 100)
- Part B deductible for qualified medical and hospital services, generally for outpatient services
- Part B excess charges benefit for charges exceeding the normal Part B limit
- Foreign travel medical emergency coverage
Transamerica Medicare Supplement Plan G
When it comes to the most bang for your buck, Transamerica Plan G is the number one choice. This option covers the same benefits as Plan F, with only one exception.
That exception being Plan G does not cover the Medicare Part B deductible, the small annual one.
For most Medicare beneficiaries these savings could be $250 or more each year. And that's after paying the yearly Part B deductible.
Transamerica Medigap Plan G offers beneficiaries the required basic benefits as well as:
- Part A hospital deductible for inpatient services
- Skilled nursing facility coinsurance (for days 21 – 100)
- Part B excess charges benefit for charges exceeding the normal Part B limit
- Foreign travel medical emergency coverage
TransAmerica Plan N
When it comes to the most affordable plan option with solid coverage, Plan N is the obvious choice. With affordable co-pays for the doctor and emergency room services, money-conscious beneficiaries go with this plan option.
Medicare Supplement Plan N contains the basic benefits, as well as, additional coverage for hospitalization. This policy doesn't cover the Medicare Part B deductible.
In addition to the basic benefits Medigap Plan N also covers:
- Part A coinsurance (generally 20% of Medicare-approved costs) for hospital outpatient services
- Part B hospital deductible for inpatient services after a $50 co-payment ER and/or a $20 co-payment for a
- doctor's office visit
- Skilled nursing facility coinsurance (for days 21-100)
- Foreign travel medical emergency coverage
Other Medigap plans include Plan L, which kicks in after you exhaust a set deductible. Plan M is a good option for people who want lower premiums but a high out of pocket spending.
Also, Medigap Plans K, D, and B are available in certain areas.
Transamerica Rate Increases
The average rate increase for Transamerica in 2019 in 9%; however, it's important to remember that rate increase vary by state and plan letter. Some companies won't have high increases for several years and then one year the increase will be much higher.
The best way to ensure you get quality coverage at the lowest rate and rate increase is to work with a broker that represents multiple carriers. When a broker makes commission no matter which policy they sell you, they sell you the best policy.
TransAmerica Medicare Advantage Plans
Currently, TransAmerica Medicare Advantage Plans don't exist.
Medicare Part D Plans offered by TransAmerica
At the end of 2016, Transamerica Part D plans came to an end. Medicare Supplement's don't include prescriptions; therefore, it's necessary to enroll in a stand-alone prescription drug plan.
The best Part D plan for you depends on the prescriptions you take, and pharmacies you use.
TransAmerica Providers
Networks don't exist on TransAmerica Medicare Supplement plans. Any Medicare Beneficiary can see any provider that accepts Medicare. It doesn't matter what type of provider.
Those enrolled in a Medigap plan don't need to worry about referrals. You can see any doctor that accepts Medicare Assignment.
Over 90% of providers throughout the United States take Original Medicare. However, Medicare Advantage plans replace your Original Medicare, confine policyholders to restrictive networks, and limitations.
TransAmerica Reviews
Including its parent company, TransAmerica provides insurance and financial solutions to more than 20 different markets throughout the world.
TransAmerica is considered a very stable company with plenty of financial surpluses to take care of their members.
However, TransAmerica does have many solutions that can be catered to your individual needs.

We are offering a linear walk from the charming village of St Fillans, on Loch Earn to Killin which is on Loch Tay. This walk has everything – pre-historic standing stones, derelict 18th century township, two lochs, and great views of some well-known mountains. The route, difficult to do without two cars, goes through some of the most beautiful and tranquil scenery between these two magnificent bodies of water. Along the way we will visit the ruins of Jerusalem, an abandoned 18th century township, which was probably a victim of the "clearances." From here spectacular views over Loch Earn to Ben Vorlich and beyond are possible. Then on through quiet Glen Tarken and Glen Beich, across no man's land to Lochan Breaclaich Reservoir, before dropping down into Killin, hopefully catching glimpses of Ben Lawers. Along the way you will be able to see the standing stones at Kinnell. Finally, whilst enjoying a well-earned rest at Killin, you will be able to marvel at the sight and sounds of the world famous spectacular Falls of Dochart which are just above the ancient burial ground of Clan MacNab who once held sway over the area. The walk is about 12 miles long, with a total ascent of about 1700 feet and will take about 7 and a half hours, excluding travelling time.

Halloween 2010
We were in Crestview for Halloween, but I thought there was already an overload of pictures on that post, so here is my separate post dedicated to Halloween, which is odd because we didn't even trick-or-treat this year!
I have been planning the kids' costumes for almost a year. Let me rephrase that, I had been thinking about the kids costumes for almost a year. Everyone is loving Mario, and I thought that would be an excellent theme. William could be Mario, Samuel could be Luigi, Ben could be the yellow mushroom head thing, and Afton was going to be Princess Peach. I thought these would be super easy to put together myself. Some overalls,some hats, a church dress for Afton, how hard could it be? I know I could have bought the costumes, but they look cheap and are actually pretty pricey. So, after thinking about the costumes for almost a year, I headed out to Goodwill in search of overalls … the week before Halloween! I had no luck, and also no costumes! I also had to figure in that Samuel no longer wanted to be Luigi, he thought Bowser would be a better costume. Plus, we were also getting ready for our trip. Apparently even if you are thinking about a costume for a year, you are still able to procrastinate the actual construction of said costume!
A couple of weeks before Halloween, Samuel's class was studying ancient Egypt, and so there was a lot of talk about mummies. I know it's not the most original costume, but I was very happy. I spent $21 on long underwear, which the boys have been wearing for pajamas. I had a ton of muslin in my fabric collection and I had lots of Halloween make up that I bought on clearance last year.
Since Halloween was on a Sunday this year, I knew that we wouldn't be trick-or-treating, but because of our trip we were also missing the ward trunk-or-treat. Originally we were planning on a trip to Disney, but when the shuttle got delayed, so did all of the Disney plans. Luckily, the town of Crestview has a Fall Festival, and we were able to dress up for that. There was also candy for the kids, but not too much! It was a great little bit of Halloween fun.

Hooray on the mummy costumes! I also tried my hand at mummies for my twins. I bought them gray thermals and tried to wrap them in gauze. It worked okay until they couldn't put them on by themselves for their school parade. They went as a dead man walking (with a Harry Potter Cape) and as a tiger. Oh, well. There's always next year- maybe Josh can wear the gauze! Cute kiddos!

Awwww . . . . very cute kids! Nice job with the costumes and on a dime (OK, maybe many dimes . . . but not too many!)
ingrid said,
I still think those were the most creative costumes EVER! Did you hear how many people were saying , "Look at those mummies!" "Those costumes are so cool!" Your trio of mummies would have definitely won the costume contest if we had stayed late enough for it. Thanks again for coming. I thought of you this evening when I used the panini press to make some cuban sandwiches. They were very tasty!

AW…halloween with cousins, so fun! Can't wait for Christmas with Cousins!

Before learning the statute of limitations for a slip and fall case, the victim must know exactly what is a statute of limitations. The statute of limitations is a very important aspect of all lawsuits and claims. A victim of a slip and fall can seek remedy through a civil suit if they were injured. But it is very important that the victim pays attention to the statute of limitations if they plan on filing a personal injury lawsuit.
Each state places a deadline that the victim has for filing a lawsuit, which is termed the "statute of limitations". Every legal claim has a statute of limitations set in place and every state has a different time frame. Depending on the type of personal injury claim in Miami, some statute of limitation can be as long as 20 years, while others can be as short as a few months. Learning exactly how long the state where the slip and fall occurred allows, is essential for filing a claim just in time.
MIAMI SLIP AND FALL ATTORNEYS will never exceed the statute of limitation for slip and fall cases. The firm always does what is best for their clients and works on recovering as much as possible for the victims of slip and falls. Not filing the lawsuit within the allowed timeframe would mean that the victim would not longer be able to file for that accident. Their chances at filing a claim would be over before it even began. The court would not waste their time and immediately dismiss the case. Seeking a responsible lawyer is essential in every personal injury case.
When Does the Deadline Start Counting Down?
In regards to a slip and fall case, the statute of limitations starts counting down the moment the victim suffered an injury. This means that if an individual lives in a state where the statute of limitations is of two years, the victim would have two years from the day that they slip and fell to file their claim against the responsible party or entity in Miami.
While the statute of limitations is very strict, there are several provisions for extending the said deadline. Some factors that can influence the statute of limitations includes whether the victim was a minor, mentally ill, or disabled because of the accident. Likewise, the deadline can be extended if the defendant was out of the country after committing the negligence.
Along with the above provisions, the "discovery" period also influences the deadline of a statute of limitation. The discovery exception applies to a victim when they did not know that they suffered an injury or that the defendant was the cause of their injury.
Do Not Waste Time in Filing, Contact a Miami Personal Injury Lawyer Today
Because the statute of limitations is so vital for every personal injury case, contacting the BEST PERSONAL INJURY ATTORNEY MIAMI will immediately will ensure that the case is filed just in time and in accordance with the laws of the state. The firm recovers for the damages endured because of the negligent party and for the rights of their clients.

Self-Exclusion Advice and Support
If you have made the decision to completely stop all forms of online gambling, there are a number of positive steps you can take to manage your addiction.
Under UK law, all online casinos, bookmakers and lotteries must provide the option of self-exclusion. In most cases, all you have to do is log into your account and enter the 'responsible gambling' section of the operators site and select the set length of time of your exclusion - usually between six months and five years.
Make sure you repeat this process at all web sites where you may be tempted to gamble online. Once you have chosen the self-exclusion option, it is irreversible. There will be no way to access your account(s) until expiry.
You should not self-exclude unless you fully understand that you may have linked accounts immediately closed and/or prevented from signing-up to newly launched operators in future. If you are unsure of this, contact their customer services team over the phone, via e-mail or live chat.
Multi Operator Exclusion (GAMSTOP)
The UK's national online self-exclusion scheme is now live and those who want to restrict online gambling activities can join the scheme - it's completely FREE. You can be excluded for a period of 6 months, 1 year or 5 years.
This is a significant step forward and should finally provide a total stop for those affected by gambling addiction.
Once the minimum duration period has elapsed, the self-exclusion will remain in force until you have returned to GAMSTOP to ask for it to be removed and gone through the relevant process. You may be asked for photographic ID and additional documentation before the removal process is complete.
GAMSTOP is operated by a not for profit organisation called The National Online Self-Exclusion Scheme Limited.
To register for GAMSTOP, please visit: www.gamstop.co.uk
Blocking Software
There are various programmes that can limit your access to online gambling web sites. Adding this software to your PC, Mac or mobile device is a great start, but you may find you need additional support.
• Betfilter (Windows, Mac and iPhone/iPad)
Most home broadband and mobile phone providers offer parental controls which can be used for the blocking of gambling web sites. These free services can be enabled by logging into your providers web site or calling customer services.
Further Help
The National Gambling Helpline is available between 8am and midnight, 7 days a week and is a free call from landlines or mobile phones on: 0808 8020 133
You can also visit BeGambleAware for support and advice on problem gambling.

In this Q&A with Just-Auto, Chief Technology Officer Markus Schupfner discusses topics ranging from CES 2019 and Visteon's autonomous driving solution to trends for curved displays and the digital cockpit of the future.
What is the headline message that you would like to put out here at the CES this year?
Visteon's theme for CES 2019 is "Digital. Electrified. Autonomous." – charting the evolution of the cockpit from the new electric/electronic architectures enabled by electric vehicles and ultimately autonomous driving when the cockpit will become a smart, learning, mobile assistant. We will focus on the how the interplay between cockpit and safety domain controllers are able to create a new user experience inside the digital cockpit and demonstrate an AI-enabled voice assistant, in-cabin sensing and new display solutions – 3D, curved and flexible – that combines to increase occupant confidence in the autonomous driving experience.
We will debut a first-of-its-kind digital cockpit solution for autonomous vehicles which will unveil the integration of the SmartCore™ cockpit domain controller and DriveCore™ safety domain, offering one integrated HMI experience. The cockpit represents the first cohesive, integrated digital cockpit using AI and machine learning to integrate domain controllers that run both cockpit displays and automated driving features. The interface represents the user experience of drivers and passengers as the vehicle seamlessly transitions from driver control through each level of autonomy, demonstrating how the vehicle takes control or gives it back. The featured autonomous capabilities include: highway pilot, traffic jam assist, self-parking and augmented reality.
Through the single driver interface, SmartCore™ independently operates multiple displays throughout the cockpit while the DriveCore™ platform delivers Level 3 and above autonomous driving capabilities by incorporating the hardware, middleware, and software toolchains required to implement machine learning algorithms. This enables reliable fusion of data from various cameras, LiDAR, radar, infrared and sensors both inside and outside the vehicle.
What does DriveCore offer that competing solutions can't?
Current systems for autonomous driving are based on distributed electronic control units (ECUs) – which have specifically defined functionality or closed, centralized systems which do not scale – and do not offer an open platform for collaborative automaker and partner development. This demand for open architectures in autonomous vehicle development is driven by the need for increased collaboration between multiple developers to meet automakers need to differentiate.
The DriveCore™ autonomous driving platform is the first open and scalable centralized computing approach featuring sensor fusion, object detection and tracking, situation analysis and trajectory planning enabled by AI. It is designed to enable automakers and partners to easily contribute content for fast development.
DriveCore's™ environmental perception model also incorporates advanced sensor fusion techniques for the highest level of accuracy and failsafe driving.
Centralised computing – using domain controllers – provides unprecedented flexibility, power and speed for handling the vast amount of sensors required for failsafe autonomous driving. Visteon's DriveCore™ Compute hardware offers maximum flexibility through its unique modular design that on the A-sample level consists of a baseboard and three types of daughter boards:
- A computation carrier, which provides the computation power and can incorporate any SoC the automaker wants.
- A safety carrier, which provides ASIL D compliance, if needed, and an Ethernet extension board that allows connection of a multitude of sensors to the ECU.
Up to eight daughter boards can be stacked on one baseboard through Visteon's unique connector system. As a result, DriveCoreTM Compute is scalable to enable all levels of automation – ranging from driver assistance to fully autonomous driving – in a very efficient and cost-effective way. Designed as an autonomous end-to-end platform, DriveCore™ incorporates three components: DriveCore™ Studio; DriveCore™ Compute and DriveCore™ Runtime:
- DriveCore™ Studio is a PC Tool to simulate the interfaces and environment for algorithm development. It contains a rich tool suite for sensor data record/playback, visualisation, configuration, fusion, testing, comparison, configuration, validation and versioning. Here, we offer and enable open collaboration third-party providers.
- DriveCore™ Runtime is a middleware and real-time environment to sandbox algorithms. It contains open APIs for algorithm development and functional safety support up to ASIL D.
- DriveCore™ Compute is a scalable, modular and failsafe hardware platform catering for Level 2+ up to Level 4 autonomous driving.
- DriveCore™ is unique because of its modular approach that offers the flexibility needed to design made-to-measure solutions for all levels of automation with exactly the computation power requested by the automaker.
What stage is DriveCore at in terms of commercial readiness?
DriveCore™ development started in 2016, leveraging the expertise we had established in cockpit computing – though SmartCore™ – which we extended to a concept encompassing scalable and fail-safe technology. During the start of 2017, we entered into the first common customer development agreement with GAC, a leading Chinese automaker, to collaborate on their next electric vehicle platform. At the start of 2020, we will have a start of production (SOP) ready system featuring Level 3 functionality with highway pilot and automated parking applications. At the end of 2020, we are planning to launch this system into production. In parallel, we are progressing development towards a Level 4 autonomous driving solution and are extending the functionality step-by-step with permanent re-design of the computing boards to enable the latest high-end computing power and performance.
To what extent can we expect to see more curved, OLED and dual displays in car cockpits?
The on-going trend in automotive is to incorporate more and larger displays, which are shaped, curved and offer high contrast. The demand for OLED displays is growing and Visteon's new developments are successfully addressing this demand. In addition to OLED, new cockpit designs require curved cover lenses and additional integration of sensors and functionality, e.g. for driver monitoring and in-cabin sensing.
At CES 2019, Visteon will feature a range of new 3D and driver monitoring clusters as well as large, curved and flexible displays that will be the primary interface between humans and the vehicle in future digital cockpits. These include curved OLED displays providing rich, high contrast images on a par with mobile devices.
Fulfilling the growing market demand for OLED and curved displays, we will also demonstrate a new VX display platform – the Visteon eXperience – offering haptic feedback and proximity sensing; as well as smart displays featuring dimmable lenses and real 3D-displays.
How will the autonomous car change the look and feel of the cockpit?
In the autonomous era, the cockpit will become a smart, learning, mobile assistant and displays play a critical role in this evolution. Larger, smart displays with curved surfaces will sweep the cockpit area to create an immersive experience for all occupants.
Visteon's design and manufacturing capabilities are transforming the shape of vehicle displays with surfaces arching across the entire dashboard, incorporating photo-realistic color rendering and contrast, freeform shapes, flowing curves and slim profiles.
The new generation of displays also offer a deeper, more engaging user experience with integrated features such as haptics, force sensing, proximity sensing and knob-over-glass. We want to create an intuitive information experience that understands intent by detecting ubiquitous interactions, and responds in a visceral way.
Chief Technology Officer Markus Schupfner leads Visteon's global advanced technology development, especially in the areas of advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2X), and autonomous driving, as well as product management of all Visteon products. Schupfner joined Visteon on April 1, 2016, bringing more than 20 years of experience leading software development for global automotive suppliers, primarily serving high-end vehicle manufacturers. He is based in Karlsruhe, Germany.

|Full report
The Swedish Transport Agency (STA) has defined focusing on safety culture as part of the regulatory strategy. This study suggests, however, that the use, relevance and potential of the concept varies widely among sectors. While there was strong focus on safety culture in aviation and rail, there was little explicit focus in the maritime sector and no explicit focus on in the road sector. Our analysis indicate that sector authorities' different focus is due to factors like: 1) legislative frameworks, 2) regulatory strategy and priorities, 3) regulatory competence and resources, 4) competence and resources of the transport companies, 5) the business structure of the sectors, 6) trust between regulators and the regulated, 7) different organisational maturity levels within the sectors, and 8) the consideration of equal conditions for competition.

Jenny Marcroft, Conservation Spokesperson
New Zealand First is excited to see the planned implementation of natural predator control on Waiheke Island.
The Government is contributing $2.6 million towards the plan to make Waiheke the first urban island in the world to go predator-free without the use of aerial 1080 drops. At a total cost of $10.9 million and with the goal of being completed by 2025, the strategy is to use traps to target rats and stoats.
New Zealand First has long campaigned on the need to trial alternatives to the use of 1080 and it was a key agreement secured during coalition talks.
"It is great to see these pilot programmes starting to roll out," says Conservation spokesperson Jenny Marcroft.
"This is another example of the Coalition partners working together to get great outcomes."

Utilization of internet-delivered cognitive behavioural therapy (iCBT) for treating depression and anxiety disorders in stepped-care models, such as the UK's Improving Access to Psychological Therapies (IAPT), is a potential solution for addressing the treatment gap in mental health. We investigated the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of iCBT when fully integrated within IAPT stepped care settings.
Internet interventions can easily generate objective data about program usage. Increasingly, more studies explore the relationship between usage and outcomes, but they often report different metrics of use, and the findings are mixed. Thus, current evaluations fail to demonstrate which metrics should be considered and how these metrics are related to clinically meaningful change. This study aimed to explore the relationship between several usage metrics and outcomes of an internet-based intervention for depression.
The UK's Improving Access to Psychological Therapies (IAPT) program is a stepped-care model treating individuals with depression and anxiety disorders. Internet-delivered cognitive behavioral therapy (iCBT) is routinely offered to individuals with mild to moderate symptoms, but its applicability to individuals with severe clinical symptoms and requiring a high-intensity intervention is relatively unknown. The study sought to investigate the potential impacts of using iCBT as a prequel for patients requiring high-intensity treatment (HIT; face-to-face) for depression and anxiety in IAPT.

A marriage is like an appetite. It needs to be nourished and fed properly. We don't want to give it "empty" calories- saying things we don't really mean or not having any truth behind our words. We also don't want to force feed it with whatever we feel like eating.
In a mixed-faith marriage, we aren't eating the same foods anymore, but we can still enjoy different foods at the same table.
We want to feed our marriage so it can continue to grow and even thrive. When we are starving to be heard, starving to be seen, or starving to be understood in our marriage- then we don't always act like our best selves. I start to lose my patience and energy when I have gone too long from food.
To keep your marriage healthy, it is important for your spouse to be able to share his new beliefs with you since leaving the Church. It doesn't mean you have to agree with them, but if you starve your spouse of this, they can build even more resentment towards the Church and disconnect in the marriage.
I know it is hard to swallow sometimes what they are thinking and feeling. It can feel very scary and you may believe they are under the influence of Satan or other negative influences. Whatever you may believe, no one wants to feel like they are evil because they don't see things the way you do anymore.
If you have to start with hearing little bites at a time, then start there. Be very open with your spouse about how much you can digest. The important thing is that the marriage is continually being fed with love, understanding, and patience.
I know how hard this can feel, it's almost like being on a restrictive diet: uncomfortable, painful, and we just want to run from it. However, there are good reasons why learning to listen to our spouse and not taking any of it personal is very healthy for your marriage in the long-term. Most of us don't see results right away when we begin a diet. You may not see results in this right away, but I promise they will come.
Let me be your personal trainer and help you learn to digest all the changes that come when a spouse changes beliefs. CLICK HERE to get started.
