Whooga Unban Ugg Boots Campaign Takes an Ugly Turn Feb 12, 2012 02:00PM

SYDNEY, Feb. 12, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- In the last week according to Google news over 300 sources have covered a Pottstown schools ban on ugg boots, thousands have formed an online twitter campaign to unban ugg boots (#unbanuggboots), and a joke has turned incredibly sour. Just over a week ago Pottstown middle school imposed a seemingly insignificant ban on ugg boots in an attempt to stop kids smuggling phones.

Whooga ugg boots, an alternative ugg boot brand read about the story shortly after it broke and decided to form a petition to unban the boots. If enough people signed the petition Whooga vowed to send the School's principal, Gail Cooper a pair of Chestnut tall ugg boots. Inside the ugg boots Gail would find smuggled the electronic signatures of everyone who participated in the campaign. In a little over 24hrs the #unbanuggboots campaign had become a viral hit. It was now up to Whooga to fulfil its part of the bargain and send Gail a pair of boots.

While Whooga was preparing all 99 printed pages of electronic signatures a source was obtaining Gail's shoe size. It was at this point Whooga learned Gail was not seeing the humour in the gesture.  Whooga technical director Michael Hodge stated "We had a source getting Gail's foot size; it was at this point we had discovered just how seriously people had taken things. Apparently poor Gail had received threats directed towards her children, something we find absolutely appalling. At this point we killed the campaign."

"Ugg boots have been a controversial item for over a decade now and they continue to attract intense debate. We believe the events were an unfortunately potent mix of Australian humour and a polarizing Australian icon. In any event ugg boots are ugg boots and something we simply need to put into perspective," said Hodge.

President Obama to Visit Master Lock to Discuss American Manufacturing and the Importance of Insourcing in America Feb 12, 2012 01:35PM

MILWAUKEE--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- The White House today announced that President Obama will travel to Master Lock in Milwaukee, Wis., on Wednesday, Feb. 15 to discuss the economy, American manufacturing and the importance of companies insourcing and investing in America. The visit comes on the heels of Master Lock being featured in the president’s recent State of the Union address for moving jobs back to the U.S. from China.

“We are honored to have the president visit Master Lock and to continue to recognize the company’s efforts to bring back jobs from China to our Milwaukee factory,” said Master Lock Co. president and chief executive officer John Heppner, who participated in the January “Insourcing American Jobs” forum at the White House. “As an American manufacturing company in business for approximately 90 years, we are proud to participate in the trend of ‘insourcing’ jobs back to the U.S.”

Since mid-2010, Master Lock has brought back approximately 100 union jobs to its Milwaukee factory. The decision to bring these jobs back was partially motivated by economic reasons related to increasingly higher labor and logistics costs in Asia, and further, ongoing labor availability challenges especially in the coastal areas of China. Advantages of moving the jobs to Milwaukee include a more competitive overall cost structure, greater control and the ability to provide better service to customers – in addition to the overall economic benefit to the company’s home state of Wisconsin. According to Heppner, Master Lock would like to bring more jobs back from overseas should the underlying economics support the move.

During the January “Insourcing American Jobs” forum at the White House, Heppner stressed two key challenges that he recommends government and business officials address to continue the insourcing of jobs:

  1. Improve access to skilled labor in North America. “The number of young people exposed to skilled labor trades through education or family and friends is declining while our current skilled labor workforce is aging,” Heppner said. “At Master Lock, we partner with trade schools and other educational institutions to help inspire young workers to choose careers in skilled labor. We encourage our government and other businesses to engage with these organizations and invest in training future generations in skilled labor careers.”Master Lock has established partnerships with local technical colleges and universities to help them improve their recruiting and curriculum development to encourage students to train for skilled labor jobs.
  2. Innovate the supply chain structure in North America. “Leveraging our expertise in automation and lean manufacturing principles, we will continue to explore opportunities to improve efficiencies and productivity, resulting in additional skilled labor jobs in the future,” Heppner said.

“We are happy that the issue of manufacturing and insourcing continues to be a priority for President Obama,” Heppner said. “We support meaningful dialogue on this important topic and look forward to continued work with the government, educational institutions and fellow businesses to help improve the climate for manufacturing in the U.S.”

"Toy Fair is a critical hub for the $83 billion global toy industry, opening the doors to both the U.S. and worldwide toy markets," said Carter Keithley, TIA president. "This year, we're pleased to welcome larger numbers in almost every category of attendee ... all who have come to New York to view the hottest new toys and games from our more than 1,000 exhibitors.  Roam these halls and you'll see classic games to tech toys and everything in between – Toy Fair has it all!"

In a proclamation from the City of New York declaring today "Toy Fair Play Day," Mayor Michael Bloomberg stated: "Even though I may be a little too old for some of the products on display here this week, I'm looking forward to hearing about the many new and exciting toys that TIA members will be exhibiting. Events like this one help cement New York's reputation as the most magical, imaginative city in the world."

Among Toy Fair's anticipated attendees are buyers from all 25 of the of nation's Top 25 Toy Sellers – including retail powerhouses Target, Walmart, Toys 'R' Us, Costco, CVS, and Amazon.com – as well as a spike in licensors (+11%) and entertainment executives (+41%), who will preview thousands of brand new products search of the next big toy.

The Toy Fair playground includes action figures and dolls; games and puzzles; arts and creative activities; bikes, trikes and ride-ons; RC vehicles; infant and preschool toys; cars, trucks, and trains; puppets and plush, and much more. TIA trend experts have already scouted the 13 product zones and identified some major trends that are destined for toy shelves throughout the year:

 

  • Generation App: keeping toys connected to the latest advancements in the tech world, an abundance of toys and games now work with smart devices and apps.
  • Glowing Wild: from outdoor to arts and crafts, toys that glow in the dark or light up are adding a fantastical element to play.
  • Little Learners: capturing the attention of the youngest of children, a broad array of toys and games are building cognitive and developmental skills and transforming little ones into lifelong learners.
  • Many Ways to Play!: toys in this category are engaging kids on multiple levels through dynamic and customizable play.
  • Save 'n' Splurge: a resurgence of toys that pack a high play value punch or have a certain "WOW" factor are cropping up as consumers are showing a post-recession willingness to loosen the purse strings a bit. However, there is still a wide selection of toys at lower prices as shoppers will always be attracted to affordability.
  • Young Maestros: musical toys will hit a high note in 2012, thanks to a wide variety of products that allow kids of all ages to rock out through instruments, singing and dance moves.

More information on the top trends for 2012 will be released as the week progresses.
