Rex Wilder Originates Name for Barnes & Noble "nook" E-Reader Dec 1, 2009 09:36PM

LOS ANGELES, CA -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 12/01/09 -- Ammunition Group today revealed that Rex Wilder is the mystery man behind the name of "The World's Most Advanced eBook Reader."

From the moment the product was introduced in October, articles and blogs began to appear with mostly rave reviews for the name. Many opinions, but no clear idea as to where to direct them. Now there is: the "nook Namer" can be reached at rexwilder@thespellgroup.com.

Within a month of nook's introduction, Barnes & Noble had completely sold out its holiday stock. Wilder takes little credit for the demand, however, attributing the nook's out-of-the-box success to design legend Ammunition Group, which created a total design solution for nook, encompassing overall service design as well as the product's industrial design, user interface, accessory system, and packaging, and R/GA, who developed the brand, marketing plan, retail materials and online and print advertising for nook -- not to mention the obvious attractiveness, inside and out, of Barnes & Noble's sexy new product.

Whether Wilder's humility was well-founded or not, the naming community liked what it heard when nook was launched: BrandFreak.com reports that Danny Altman at the naming firm A Hundred Monkeys calls nook "the top of all e-reader names out there." John Hoeppner, President of Name Quest, calls it a "short, easy-to-spell, one-syllable word that will be memorable to consumers." Tom Sepanski, director of naming at Landor Associates, also says nook is a winner: "With nook, it appears B&N is trying to improve on the Kindle blueprint. Both names quickly associate with a love of reading and feel friendly, warm and true to their respective brands. Where Kindle is about trying something new, nook is more familiar and comfortable." Athel Foden, president of Brighter Naming, believes nook is a great name: "Soon there will be a lot of e-readers, and who will everyone remember? Kindle and nook!" "We'd love to claim that we created this name," says catchwordbranding.com, "But alas, we cannot."

Wilder contributed product names -- nook was among over 400 he created -- and philosophy as part of a project job with Ammunition Group. "I thought nook was a natural," he says. "The perfect evolution from 'book.' It may sound obvious, or silly, with its echoes of Dr. Seuss, or even bawdy. But really, from the beginning, I thought it was the perfect name: it's humble, and old-fashioned. Certainly not showy, not 'look at me, I'm the Kindle Killer.' And it does a little piece of magic, too: it transforms a thing into a place. Before you've even turned it on, you've been transported to your own, personal secret garden of words, stories, and characters. Plus, it's fun to say aloud, or to goof on: as in 'nook-nook, who's there,' and so forth."

Rex Wilder is an advertising Creative Director and Copywriter, with 3 Super Bowl commercials to his credit. He was most recently Senior Vice President, Executive Creative Director at Radarworks, based in Los Angeles and Seattle. He left in September 2009, just a month before nook's launch, to start his own company, The Spell Group.

Rex Wilder is known for his compact, often witty, emotionally charged and mnemonically crafted slogans, catchphrases, and names. For a company that produced challenging outdoor charity events, he created "I'mpossible." For the Breast Cancer 3-Day walk, he wrote "Humankind. Be Both." and "Everyone Deserves a Lifetime." For the Skirball Cultural Center's Einstein extravaganza: "Bring Your Friends and Relativities." For the Museum of Tolerance, his words, "Understanding Room Only," were so well received they became part of the building itself: today they span the ceiling at the entrance.

Wilder's story is not just one of a working ad writer hitting the jackpot; it's also one of an internationally recognized poet who is clearly pleased to leave his mark on a new medium.

Wilder's poems have been published in all the major markets, from London's Times Literary Supplement and Chicago's Poetry magazine to the New Republic, the Nation, and the Yale Review. His first book, "Waking Bodies" from Red Hen Press prompted rare praise from two-time United States Poet Laureate Billy Collins: "In Rex Wilder's poetry, the tired English of everyday use comes back to us refreshed and full of its original surprise. In a world glutted with poetry, that Wilder has found a new way to say the old things is a notable achievement."

Certainly in the nook Wilder has found a new way to say the new things, too.

Research and Markets: Analysis of China Corn Seed Market - 2009 Edition Report Dec 1, 2009 09:30PM

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/dfa53a/analysis_of_china) has announced the addition of the "Analysis of China Corn Seed Market 2009" report to their offering.

Seed shares a main part of agricultural planting cost and in the upper stream of agricultural products chain. The market competitive advantage of seed will determine the power of agricultural competitiveness. China is a large agricultural country. The amount of annual agricultural seeds is approximate 12.5 billion kg. In 2008, the total seed market capacity of hybrid corn, hybrid rice, vegetables, and cotton in 2008 was more than 30 billion yuan. Corn plays a vital role in China's food security system, it is an important fodder crop and also is a major raw material of the food, chemicals, fuel and medicine industries. Seed is the foundation in the development of corn industry chain. According to studies that corn seed plays the most active factor in the increase of maize production, accounting for 35.5% of the total contribution. The total market value of corn seed in China is between 10-11 billion yuan and has a great potential growth. But the Chinese corn seed marketability is relatively in a short time with competition disorder and a largely blindness of production and operation, and the relationship between supply and demand has been imbalanced for a long time. However, there are a few factors will affect the development of China corn seed industry, therefore, how to find a way to sort these matters out will be a challenge for China's corn industry.

In terms of the supply and demand of corn seed in the past years, China's corn seed has showed an oversupply situation. Because of the seed production area in 2006 increased to 4.9 million mu, which caused a serious over-supply of corn seeds, in 2007 the unsold corn seeds reached to 870 million Kg. The reduction of seed production area had been for two consecutive years in 2007 and 2008, which led to the situation of oversupply has been relaxed in 2009. According to the forecast of Hybrid Rice and Hybrid Corn Conference that seed production area in 2009 will be 3.4 million mu, increasing 13% than 2008, and the unsold seed is expected that will be 560 million kg, the supply of seed will be still in an over-supply situation.

In 2009, Chinese corn seed market shows a positive trend. First, the pressure of oversupply of corn seeds has relaxed obviously. According to the Chinese Agricultural Technology Promotion Center's forecast, due to the reduction of seed production area in 2008, a year-on-year reduction of 4.4 billion mu, the supply of seed in 2009 will be 1.63 billion kilograms, and the demand of seed will be approximately 1.1 billion kilograms in 2009, therefore, the stocks of seed will be 530 million kilograms (In 2008, it was 720 million kilograms), down 26.39% year-on-year; Secondly, the price of corn seed rose sharply year-on- year, according to Ministry of Agriculture's data that the price of hybrid corn seed rose between 5% - 20%, of which Xianyu335 and Zhengdan 958 rose over 20%; Finally, the policy of seed's subsidy has achieved full coverage, the payment of subsidies became cash instead.

In terms of the high elasticity of supply and low elasticity of demand of corn seed, it is expected that the over-supply situation of seed market will be normality. But when the market concentration is in a high level, the situation of oversupply will change. However, the current situation of Chinese seed market is relatively segmentation, marketization has just started, shortage of leading companies, therefore, in a short-term, it is difficult to expand market share sharply for any single enterprise and for companies to merger is also unlikely to happen, to raise the degree of market concentration is relatively difficulty, the over-supply of seed market will remain a long term.

When foreign companies enter the Chinese corn seed market, the lack of competitiveness of domestic enterprises, resulting in the direction of industrial development is in an uncertain future. The Chinese breeding system is in a high homogeneity, has not achieved fully commercial. Under the conditions of high homogeneous competition, the high technology does not bring such benefit for industry development; the industry service system has not built up, resulting in poor services to the farmers; Domestic seed production and processing systems is more and more difficult to meet the development requirements of industry; the level of industrial management is sometimes restricted the industry development.

Key Topics Covered:

1 Overview Chinese corn seed industry development

2 Supply and demand of corn seed

3 China Corn Market

4 Government policies and subsidies

5 Comparison of corn seed market between China and U.S

6 The core competitiveness of seed companies - high quality seed
