The Power of the Poster

I live in a built up area, near a very busy cafe strip. Quite often, usually late at night, I see scruffy men assiduously putting posters up on telegraph poles. They have this action down pat, wrapping the poster around the telegraph pole, and then deftly looping adhesive tape around it several times in a flash. They clearly get a lot of practice.

The next day you will see their handiwork: hundreds of telegraph poles covered in brightly colored  posters for the latest big rock event or theater show. But only a week later (after several more nocturnal poster runs) these will have disappeared almost completely - covered up by other advertisements for different bands and events!

This process is repeated right throughout the year. These poster layers build up until they resemble bark around a tree. They even start to peel back. Posters from many months past fall down on the ground, along with the dried adhesive tape that held them there!

It's a strange process. But it certainly reveals something: Those posters must be a very effective means of advertising for promoters to spend so much money on them - particularly when they are only seen for a comparatively short period of time.

But it's not surprising. With so many placed on such a busy street they will leave an imprint on tens - if not hundreds - of thousands of people walking or driving past them.

The poster is a great advertising medium because it can feature one large, colorful image. And images are extremely powerful, of course.

Take movie posters, for instance. These are sometimes so striking that they are easier to remember than some scenes from the movies themselves. Remember the poster from Jaws? Or from the James Bond film Octopussy?  Chances are you will be able to.

Quite often, in movie posters, several characters will be shown together, often in a situation that doesn't occur in the actual movie. An example: American Pie. Can you recall this image? I'll bet you can.

This illustrates the great strength of the poster: it can be a distillation of something bigger or more complex. Not unlike a logo, it can effectively capture the essence of something.

For this reason posters generally, but movie posters in particular, are very popular. People become avid collectors, much like stamp collectors, simply because they love the medium. But certainly much of the trade is composed of people who have seen a movie, loved it, and want to hang reminders of it in their rooms.

Being so highly sought after, the rarer ones appreciate in value substantially over time. An example: a private collector in the US paid close to $700 000 for a poster - original, of course - for the Fritz Lang sci-fi classic Metropolis.

Needless to say, a poster is an excellent way to advertise anything, since any commodity or service has a character or essence that needs to be communicated. For much the same reasons that people remember movie posters, they will also remember posters for events, businesses and services.

I originated in Asia around 3000 years ago. Many thought I was weed; for many years I was food for the Roman horses. Because of my high fat content, I go rancid and do not store well. In the early 17th century, Scottish settlers brought me to North America. George Washington planted me. My humble beginnings were for medicinal purposes. I am also used as a cosmetic, soaps, adhesive, cat litter, and biodegradable plastics. Recently researchers have found that I contain more soluble fiber than any other grain. Now, I am able to lower cholesterol, reduce high blood pressure, reduce colon cancer, and lower bacterial infections. I have 66.5% manganese, 27% selenium, and 25% tryptophan. I am a powerful phytonutrient whose benefits have gone unrecognized by researches until NOW. In one cup I have 145 calories.

You are talking about oats. If you do a search for "history of oats" and so on, you should find all the information you need.

The Powerful Ephemeral $26.95 The violent partitioning of British India along religious lines and ongoing communalist aggression have compelled Indian citizens to contend with the notion that an exclusive, fixed religious identity is fundamental to selfhood. Even so, Muslim saint shrines known as dargahs attract a religiously diverse range of pilgrims. In this accessible and groundbreaking ethnography, Carla Bellamy traces the long-term healing processes of Muslim and Hindu devotees of a complex of dargahs in northwestern India. Drawing on pilgrims' narratives, ritual and everyday practices, archival documents, and popular publications in Hindi and Urdu, Bellamy considers questions about the nature of religion in general and Indian religion in particular. Grounded in stories from individual lives and experiences, The Powerful Ephemeral offers not only a humane, highly readable portrait of dargah culture, but also new insight into notions of selfhood and religious difference in contemporary India.

Powerful Medicines $13.99 If you believe that the latest blockbuster medication is worth a premium price over your generic brand, or that doctors have access to all the information they need about a drug’s safety and effectiveness each time they write a prescription, Dr. Jerry Avorn has some sobering news. Drawing on more than twenty-five years of patient care, teaching, and research at Harvard Medical School, he shares his firsthand experience of the wide gap in our knowledge of the effectiveness of one medication as compared to another. In Powerful Medicines, he reminds us that every pill we take represents a delicate compromise between the promise of healing, the risk of side effects, and an increasingly daunting price. The stakes on each front grow higher every year as new drugs with impressive power, worrisome side effects, and troubling costs are introduced. This is a comprehensive behind-the-scenes look at issues that affect everyone: our shortage of data comparing the worth of similar drugs for the same condition; alarming lapses in the detection of lethal side effects; the underuse of life-saving medications; lavish marketing campaigns that influence what doctors prescribe; and the resulting upward spiral of costs that places vital drugs beyond the reach of many Americans. In this engagingly written book, Dr. Avorn asks questions that will interest every consumer: How can a product judged safe by the Food and Drug Administration turn out to have unexpectedly lethal side effects? Why has the nation’s drug bill been growing at nearly 20 percent per year? How can physicians and patients pick the best medication in its class? How do doctors actually make their prescribing decisions, and why do those decisions sometimes go wrong? Why do so many Americans suffer preventable illnesses and deaths that proper drug use could have averted? How can the nation gain control over its escalating drug budget without resorting to rationing or draconian governmental controls? Using clinical case histories taken from his own work as a practitioner, researcher, and advocate, Dr. Avorn demonstrates the impressive power of the well-conceived prescription as well as the debacles that can result when medications are misused. He describes an innovative program that employs the pharmaceutical industry’s own marketing techniques to reduce use of some of the most overprescribed and overpriced products. Powerful Medicines offers timely and practical advice on how the nation can improve its drug-approval process, and how patients can work with doctors to make sure their prescriptions are safe, effective, and as affordable as possible. This is a passionate and provocative call for action as well as a compelling work of clear-headed science.
