Thankfully, like your girlfriend, I do not have to use metrics like “over a day’s ride.”

Ford Motor Company, I have a hard time believing that these are not selling well.
ION Launches All New On-Air Look, Multiplatform Advertising Campaign and ‘Positively Entertaining’ Facebook Contest, Monday, October 4
“NEW YORK – October 4, 2010 - ION Television delivered its best season ever, growing faster year-over-year than any other broadcast or cable network, according to Nielsen Media Research. Propelled by the off-network series “Criminal Minds” and the newly acquired series “Without a Trace,” ION posted growth across all key demos, including A25-54, W25-54, A18-49 and W18-49. The ratings milestone sets the stage for ION’s latest brand update when it launches its new multiplatform look today, October 4th.
ION’s ratings success, from October 2009 through September 2010, registered record triple and double-digit growth in sales prime, with a +72% increase in total viewers (1,011,000 v. 588,000). As well, ION advanced +76% among A25-54 (450,000 v. 259,000), and +110% on W25-54 (276,000 v. 135,000). ION also notched substantial gains among the valuable W18-49 demo (252,000 v. 108,000) as well, up 133%, while A18-49 registered a +95% improvement (392,000 v. 204,000).
The season also saw ION Television achieve new milestones among its key A25-54 audience, as the network enjoyed its most watched day (12/29/09 – 934,000 A25-54), week (1/25/10 – 1/31/10; 628,000 A25-54), month (January 2010; 12/28/09 – 1/31/10, 579,000 A25-54), quarter (1Q10, 506,000 A25-54) and telecast (Criminal Minds Tuesday 10P - 12/29/09; 1.4MM A25-54) ever in sales prime with the demo.
The primetime ratings surge is driven, in part, by the continued success of ION Television’s hit off-network series:
· Criminal Minds
o The launch of Criminal Minds on ION propelled the network to strong growth, as the show yielded +83% gains among A25-54 (605,000 v. 330,000) during M-Su 7p-12a versus the year-ago network performance in the daypart. Additionally, Criminal Minds averaged triple digit gains among W25-54 (389,000 v. 180,000, + 116%), A18-49 (536,000 v. 256,000, +109%) and W25-54 (348,000 vs. 131,000, +150%).
· Without a Trace
o Without a Trace joined ION Television in July 2010 and quickly became a favorite of network viewers. The show posted year-over-year growth of +64% among A25-54 (373,000 v. 227,000), and +61% with A18-49 (319,000 v. 198,000). Without a Trace more than doubled year-ago audience levels among W25-54 (261,000 v. 132,000, +98%) and W18-49 (228,000 v. 119,000, +92%).
· Ghost Whisperer
o With the addition of Ghost Whisperer to ION’s daytime lineup in August, coupled with popular weekend movies (Back to the Future, Daredevil, The Fifth Element), boosted the 3Q10 non-prime daypart performance by +18% among A25-54 compared to the daypart’s pre-Ghost Whisperer average (202,000 vs. 186,000) and by +39% on W18-49 (133,000 vs. 96,000)
‘We have been fortunate with our content choices and partners during the first phase of our network launch, with a ratings growth that has put us in the top 15 U.S. entertainment television networks in only 18 months,’ says Brandon Burgess, CEO, ION Media Networks. ‘That said, we see more content and ratings expansion potential ahead. The theme of our new on-air graphics reflects the multidimensional television entertainment content we see unfolding on the network in coming years.’
ION Television’s new on-air look, which launches today, October 4th, can be seen here.
While ION Television’s logo and ‘Positively Entertaining’ tagline remain the same, the new graphics package, developed for ION by Greenwich, CT-based The Brand Gallery, launches on-air and online on the new www.iontelevision.com. Throughout October, the network will ramp up its presence in the marketplace, communicating its latest look, with initiatives including a business to business advertising buy and a guerilla marketing stunt in New York City.”
Well,
ION Television, that was interesting, but personally, I am unlikely to be watching your network:
First, I forgot that you even still existed.
Second, your recent-ratings successes seem to consist of old shows, which I never wanted to watch as first-run on CBS anyway.
Third, although I am within at least one demographic, I am paying for cable television, and prefer to watch BBC America, Comedy Central, the Discovery Channel, History, or the Science Channel, when I am not watching the Cartoon Network and Adult Swim thereon.
Well, I sure told them. All right! A new video game in the
Fallout series is being released. Save for the video card, my
Dell will likely meet the system requirements of
this title, yet I cannot find the system requirements anywhere on the site...

Pimp my rice paddy ::: Pink Tentacle
“Each year, farmers in the town of Inakadate in Aomori prefecture create works of crop art by growing a little purple and yellow-leafed kodaimai rice along with their local green-leafed tsugaru-roman variety. This year's creation -- a pair of grassy reproductions of famous woodblock prints from Hokusai's 36 Views of Mount Fuji -- has begun to appear (above). It will be visible until the rice is harvested in September.”
