Here’s a reminder for all you agricultural public relations professionals. The Agricultural Relations Council is holding a meeting in Memphis (one of my favorite towns) March 23 – 25. Can you say “Ribs & Blues?” Yeah, there’s the professional improvement thing too.
Green Hired To Lead O&B’s DMG
He looks like a computer guy. Those eyes have stared at a computer screen for a long time I’m guessing. He’s Mark Green and Osborn & Barr Communications’ newest hire to lead their new Digital Marketing Group. That would the the group that handles “Web-based initiatives and customer relationship management.”
Quirky Hispanic “Drink Milk” Ads
If you’re sitting there wishing you had something interesting to watch, try these new Got Milk hispanic ads. They’re set to begin airing January 30. I think Adrants describes these spots right with the word “quirky.”

A big announcement was made today and I think agricultural communicators should take notice. I really think you need to check this out.

Since Keith Good won’t be posting today I thought I’d give you a taste of some world trade information from the Angus Carcass Challenge Winner Announced
You have seriously got to be “into” beef for this story. A real steak lover would like a good carcass challenge though. I don’t think I’d do very good at this competition.

A Yogurt Smoothie For Your Teeth
I thought this was just too weird to be true until I saw the story in USA Today. Have you ever considered brushing your teeth with yogurt? Me either. But you can. With some fancy toothpaste from Breath Palette. Try the Smoothie Toothpaste Kit which comes in these flavors: Fresh Yogurt, Monkey Banana, Kiwi Fruit, Strawberry, Blueberry
Travel Time Once Again
It’s back on the road this week. I’m off to Chi-town and Milwaukee for some great meetings and discussions. Lots of talk about this new media thing we’re doing you know. This means a little bit of light posting until probably tomorrow.
