Carlsbad, CA, February 22, 2012 –(PR.com)– Business Review USA, the top digital media source for American business news, takes a look at the best and worst Super Bowl commercials of all time in the February issue, available now at http://www.businessreviewusa.com/
“Perhaps the most remarkable branding benefit of a Super Bowl commercial is the high possibility of staying power. It’s not easy to retain the public’s interest over months, let alone years, but history has proven that a buzz worthy Super Bowl ad can keep a brand in the pop culture lexicon for decades.
“This year’s Super Bowl XLVI ad slots officially sold out in early January and the pressure to deliver something memorable is as high as it’s ever been. In honor of this branding bonanza, we’re refreshing your memory with a look at some of the best and worst Super Bowl ads from past years,” Editor-in-Chief Sharise Cruz writes. http://www.businessreviewusa.com
The article takes an in-depth look at ads that revolutionized modern television marketing – for better and for worse. Some Super Bowl commercials have the power to keep a brand name buzzing at the water cooler for years while some just turn out to be a colossal waste of money. “The average 30-second Super Bowl commercial slot now costs about $3.5 million dollars (excluding production expenses) and has the potential to create unprecedented brand buzz as the event’s captive audience grows with each passing year,” the article reads.

DAVAO CITY, Philippines — The 65th Philippine Airlines (PAL) Interclub men’s golf team championships unfold Wednesday with Del Monte Golf Club defending its title against a slew of challengers.
With the departure of 17-time champion Canlubang, this year’s event has become a wide open race with at least seven teams inside the radar.
Del Monte sits on top of the food chain with nine members of last year’s champion team returning to win their first crown outside their home turf.
Clyde Mondilla and Jovanie Abano banner a youth-laden squad out to capture its third Interclub crown. The other members of the team are John Mark Mondilla, Magno Arancon Jr., Julius Bautista, Noel Langamin, Jelbert Gamolo, Lawrence Cubillo, Leonard Lofranco and playing captain Yoyong Velez.
“We want to prove that we can also win outside of Del Monte. I think we have a good chance,” said Velez.
Gamolo, a 14-year-old junior champion, is the latest addition to Del Monte, replacing Borgie Lusterio who could not be included because of the handicapping system in place.
Adopted only last year, the handicapping system led to the withdrawal of Canlubang this year and the emergence of several contenders.
Cebu Country Club, last year’s runner-up, is expected to crowd Del Monte as well as Negros, Forest Hills, Wack Wack, Alabang and Manila Southwoods.
Playing captain Ramontito Garcia will lead CCC’s title drive. Returning for the team are Carl Almario, Eric Deen, Mark Anthony Dy, Bayani Garcia, Gio Gandionco, Lloyd Go, Jovi Neri and Jose Sarmiento. Gen Nagai is the team’s newcomer.
Negros will be led by playing captain Francis Gaston and JR Tanpinco, former stalwart of the Country Club.
Wack Wack, the inaugural champion in 1948, is also in the mix following the inclusion of Tommy Manotoc and sons Mathew and Gabriel in the team lineup.
The Mandaluyong-based squad has seven Interclub crowns under its belt – its last victory coming in 1978.
Manila Southwoods, a two-time winner, will be led by Korean Sung Hwan Yoon and veterans Junjun Plana and Vince Lauron.
The championship round will start at Rancho Palos Verdes, one of
