Stillness and Speed falls fully Stillness and Speed: My Story that category. It is a conversation with one of the greatest players of his age. It has the echo of games past but talks to Stillness and Speed: My Story present and carries hope for the future. Here, Winner provides the loose, experimental format and lets Bergkamp do what he does best — guide and assist the narrative of his own life in a way that enlightens and lets the reader truly understand what makes one of the most creative players football has ever seen. Just like the ease and grace that so characterised his game, the book has an effortless Stillness and Speed: My Story and chapter Stillness and Speed: My Story seem merely present to be able to divide the sections for the contents page. However there is also enough proof of his steely interior, his stubbornness in sticking to his pure vision of the game even when others particularly during his ill-fated Serie A stint called him too snobbish to conform to their style of play. Similarly that goal against Newcastle also gets its own chapter and in-depth analysis. Above all there is his constant striving for perfection, his passion and obsession with the beautiful game and a very introspective, intelligent voice that perfectly complements the football we were lucky to be able to witness on the pitch.

  • What Is Brand
    WHAT IS BRAND ANS. A brand is a product, service, or concept that is publicly distinguished from other products, services, or concepts so that it can be easily communicated and usually marketed. A brand name is the name of the distinctive product, service, or concept. Branding is the process of creating and disseminating the brand name. Branding can be applied to the entire corporate identity as well as to individual product and service names. Brands are usually protected from use by others by securing a trademark or service mark from an authorized agency, usually a government agency. Before applying for a trademark or service mark, you need to establish that someone else hasn't already obtained one for your name. Although you can do the searching yourself, it is common to hire a law firm that specializes in doing trademark searches and managing the application process, which, in the United States, takes about a year. Once you've learned that no one else is using it, you can begin to use your brand name as a trademark simply by stating it is a trademark (using the " TM " where it first appears in a publication or Web site). After you receive the trademark, you can use the registered (?) symbol after your trademark. Brands are often expressed in the form of logos , graphic representations of the brand. In computers, a recent example of widespread brand application was the "Intel Inside" label provided to manufacturers that use Intel's microchips. A company's brands and the public's awareness of them is often used as a factor in evaluating a company.
