rec.arts.tv.uk.misc:  Rethink the Cool + the Shoe

phil knight had a dream.  he'd sell shoes.  he'd sell dreams.
he'd get rich.  he'd use sweatshops if he had to.

then along came a new shoe.  plain.  simple.  cheap.  fair.
designed for only one thing:  kicking phil's ass.

For years, Nike was the undisputed champion of logo culture, 
its swoosh an instant symbol of global cool. 

Today, Phil Knight's Nike is a fading empire, badly hurt by 
years of "brand damage" as activists and culture jammers 
fought back against mindfuck marketing and dirty sweatshop labor.

Now a final challenge. We take on Phil at his own game - and win. 
We turn the shoes we wear into a counterbranding game. The swoosh 
versus the anti-swoosh. Which side are you on?

Adbusters has been doing R&D for more than a year, and guess what? 
Making a shoe - a good shoe - isn't exactly rocket science. 
With a network of supporters, we're getting ready to launch the 
blackSpot sneaker, the world's first grassroots anti-brand. 
You can help launch the blackSpot revolution.

THE BIG QUESTION:

        Is it possible to take Phil Knight's billion-dollar 
        marketing momentum and, in a quick judo-like move, slap 
        him onto the mat with the power of his own PR thrust?

Why will we explain after Katya behaves the handsome lake's car?


don?t like the real Saddam Hussein, we don?t want
Muslims to be killed either and also we want AlQuds and Muslims to be
free and the world free of weapons of mass destruction and a just and
fair place, we have a few things in common so may be we can work
together. At the same time West must learn not to fear and not to play
any games anywhere, to beat a bad person you must not act like a bad
person.

In my case I have given dead line to bad guys that would insha?Allah
expire by the 20th of Ramadan this year, but once again right not effort
must be places in freeing religious community, being honest and just and
preparing people?s minds to know the truth. People should also be taught
be be direct and honest about the reality of the world.

Though these are my thoughts but like always they can be wrong, if so
may God forgive me, may God have mercy on us all and save us from fitna
of information and events. May God free the world from bad guys and free
Muslim minds and give us all ability to obey him properly, may God bring
the time again when the earth sees the most liked people of God again
everywhere. Ameen.

Question: Why did US told the world about China?s underground nuclear
testing, while China was claming it is earth quake, diplomatic things
could have been sorted out away from public? Why did the Timothy
incident occur in 1995, what else occurred
