New Navy TV Commercial Gives Viewers a Powerful Image of Navy’s Impact

November 17, 2011

San Diego, CA — The U.S. Navy has a new TV spot titled “100%,” created by Campbell Ewald, to introduce the deterrence tenet of Navy’s Maritime Strategy. This tenet focuses on Navy’s forward deployment and force readiness while showing Navy’s relevance across the globe by sharing some memorable facts including how a large percentage of the world’s population and trade is impacted by water.

“Deterring aggression is part of what we do as America’s Navy,” said Commander Brent Phillips, Director of Marketing and Advertising for Navy Recruiting Command. “This latest commercial helps us share this important mission with those we serve.”

The new :30 spot begins with a shot of a wide expanse of sea seen from above as supers begin to move in and out of the scene, that say: 70% of the earth is covered in water; 80% of people live near water; 90% of all trade travels by water. These visuals are followed by one of a U.S. Navy aircraft carrier entering the frame as it eclipses the last super. Its massive presence fills the entire frame. As it passes by, the viewer sees the unbelievable length of this great ship along with the arsenal and sailors around the flight deck. It finally clears leaving a wake behind as another super appears on the screen with the words: 100% on Watch. A voice-over then says “America’s Navy. A Global Force For Good.”

Navy’s Maritime Strategy is comprised of six tenets — power projection, humanitarian assistance/disaster response, deterrence, forward presence, maritime security and sea control. Together, these tenets define America’s Navy as A Global Force For Good. The spot created by Campbell Ewald introducing the Maritime Strategy is entitled “The Calling,” and was released in 2009. It describes the men and women who answer the Navy’s call. The first two tenets depicted — Power Projection and Humanitarian Assistance — were represented through two separate :30 commercials – “Power” and “Until”.

“The strategy behind the work shows the role Navy plays not only in deterring aggression, but how relevant the Navy is to our daily lives. It makes viewers think twice about the impact the Navy has on their safety, and way of life, every day,” said Mark Simon, chief creative officer from Campbell Ewald.

The spot ran exclusively during the inaugural Carrier Classic event that took place on November 11, 2011. The Carrier Classic was the NCAA men’s basketball season opener played between the Michigan State University Spartans and the University of North Carolina Tar Heels. The game was played at Naval Base Coronado aboard the USS Carl Vinson, a Navy aircraft carrier that was constructed to have a regulation-size basketball court and seating. The game, won by North Carolina 67-55, was ESPN’s highest-rated game since 2006.

Campbell Ewald has been the U.S. Navy's agency of record since 2000.


About The United States Navy

America’s Navy is very much a global force for good, on station around the world and around the clock, deterring aggression, keeping the sea lanes open for free trade, and, when necessary, projecting power.

The Navy is ideally suited for today’s challenges, because the Navy is fast and flexible.  It can go anywhere on the ocean on short notice, and can do all of its work from the water: 

  • Navy ships and submarines can shoot at targets and knock out enemy missiles far inland – from the water. 
  • Navy planes fly about half of the aerial combat missions in Afghanistan.  They don’t need airstrips on the ground.  They take off from aircraft carriers – from the water. 
  • Navy SEAL teams can carry out special operations worldwide – from the water.
  • In a humanitarian crisis like a tsunami or an earthquake, the Navy can deliver huge amounts of supplies and provide hospital-quality medical care – from the water.

Do the over-45s need extra dental treatment?

November 17, 2011

A leading dentist has told MPs that patients aged over 45 need more specialist dental treatment than younger patients.

According to dentistry.co.uk, Professor Jimmy Steele, speaking at a Westminster meeting of the all-Parliamentary group for dentistry at the beginning of November (2011), claimed that the over-45s need better-targeted treatment.

This, he said, would best maintain their oral health at a stage of their life when they become more vulnerable to tooth decay and other associated dental issues.

Professor Steele, the Head of the School of Dental Sciences at Newcastle University, was quoted by dentistry.co.uk as saying that 25 per cent of work on over-45s should be rehabilitation and that “it will take more than a deftly-applied fluoride varnish, useful though that maybe” to meet their dental needs.

However, Dr Steele did have some positive news for adults who were born before 1966. He said: “The good news is that under-45s have healthier teeth than ever before and they have much better prospects than those who came before them.”

Dr Steele’s special concern for patients aged over-45 perhaps stems from the fact that this generation grew up before dentistry benefitted from significant improvements.

Recent innovations include the availability of products which discreetly and painlessly move your teeth; such as Inman Aligner and Invisalign. Putney dental clinic Ethicare has certainly taken advantage of these products to offer patients more options regarding their oral health.

So have those aged under 45 suffered because these products, and other modern forms of treatment, weren’t as freely available a decade ago? And do older generations take less care of their teeth and their overall physical health?

The answer to these questions perhaps lies in the Adult Dental Health Survey (ADHS) of 2009 – a report Dr Steele was heavily involved in.

The study found that just three per cent of English people in the 45 to 54 age category had all of their natural teeth in their mouth. This figure was 12 per cent in the age category below (the 35 to 44 age group) - quite a significant difference suggesting that in many cases we should more vigilant about our dental health once we pass 40.

Of course, cutting out nicotine is one widely-acknowledged way of safeguarding dental health as dentists frequently point out the connection between smoking and poor dental health.

It is a lesson which the over-45s seem to be taking to heart as the ADHS survey found that the further you leave your 45th birthday behind you the less likely you are to be a smoker.

While 29 per cent of English 25 to 34 year-olds were regular smokers in 2009, the figure was just 23 per cent in the 45 to 54 age range, 19 per cent in the 55 to 64 category and in single figures for those aged over 75.

Another discovery made by the same survey concerned the fact that in England people aged over-45 are less likely to brush their teeth twice-a-day than people in the 25 to 44 age category are. However, they are more regular twice-a-day brushers than 16 to 24-year-olds are.

So what else should the over-45s (and all of us do) to look after our teeth as we get older? Any dentist will tell you that brushing twice a day, flossing and avoiding sugary snacks between meal times is an essential part of a sensible daily dental routine.

It is also a universal truth that a regular dental check-up is a good idea. However, there is some disagreement as to how regular check-ups should be. Dr Steele believes that it is wrong to advise patients to visit their dentist every six months.

“That derives from something somebody published in the United States in the 1940s; there is no evidence for that,” the outspoken dentist told MPs.

Your Thanksgiving feast was a success but your fridge is still packed with leftovers.

For example, Thanksgiving turkey could become turkey broccoli quiche, turkey chili or turkey burritos. Check out the Cheap Healthy Good blog for 38 inexpensive, healthy and delicious leftover recipes.
  • After days of preparing for Thanksgiving, you and your guests will want to relax.  Encourage guests to wear comfy clothes and put some throw blankets and extra throw pillows around the house for guests to use.  Make a fire if you have a fireplace or if not, just light some extra candles and put them around the house for a cozy atmosphere.
  •  Seagram’s Escapes coolers come in a colorful variety of flavors and colors which means they are decorative and delicious. Display Seagram’s Escapes coolers on ice in buckets and invite guests to help themselves.  Seagram’s Escape newest seasonal flavor, Apple Pomegranate Mimosa is especially delicious this time of year.
  • After you’ve enjoyed all of the delicious left-overs, pop in a good movie for you and your guests to enjoy. Whether it be a holiday classic or a new hit release (check out a Thanksgiving movie top ten list from Huffington Post), relaxing with a movie is the perfect way to kick-back and unwind.
