Sam & Max: The Devil's Playhouse Episode 5: The City That Dares Not Sleep Recap Trailer
This trailer should get you up to speed in this five-part series.
i slaped myself and said that why didn't i play this AWSOME game before!!!
I want to get this on the PS3.......Is season1 on PS3 as well? If not should I play Season 1 on my PC before getting season 2 on the PS3?
@iloveyourface And the patience to choose everything and try to use it on everything when one is stuck on how to proceed.
@RetroCity It's a point and click adventure game. It's like you're playing a movie.
Is this a game or a show?
This season has been incredible and I can't wait for the last episode!
@iloveyourface Unfortunately, lots of people don't like adventure games 'cos they actually require you to use your brain and most gamers don't know how. Sam & Max is epic
i guess i'm the only one excited about this... haha. guys. steve purcell is a "genius." i put it in quotes because i don't believe anyone is actually a genius, but just a really special person. in which we are all special persons created by something so spectacular... ahhhh, i am so looking forward to this episode. i have been a fan since "hit the road" and well... 1993 is getting farther and farther away... or is it further. i know i shouldn't have slept through that english class.

Since you asked me what's the difference between DnB and Dubstep. Take a look at these
At first you wont know what makes these different. They both got drums, the both got bass, they both got electronic synths…what gives? Well pay attention to the drum pattern. Notably: The DnB is faster, the Dub is slower. The drum pattern is unique to the genre and isn't reused in other genre's. Memorize them and you can tell the two apart any day. Any questions at this point?

Anderson Gardens curator to present lecture June 20
Online Staff Report
Anderson Japanese Gardens Curator and Head of Horticulture Tim Gruner will present a lecture, "Patterns and Rhythms of Nature that Inspire Japanese Garden Design," at 7 p.m., Thursday, June 20, at the gardens' Visitor Center.
Gruner will present the guiding principles of Japanese garden design and how they are derived from patterns and rhythms found in nature. At their best, Japanese gardens induce the positive emotional response that one would experience in a place of natural beauty. The general pattern formed by trees growing along streams and slopes, the nature of a stream winding through a meadow and the gradual transition of the seasons marked by ephemeral blooms inform the designer of a Japanese garden. The ultimate goal of the garden is to create a place of peace, calm and tranquility that provides the opportunity for fresh and clear thought.
All lectures are free to Anderson Japanese Gardens members and are $5 for non-members. Reservations are requested and can be made by contacting Sara at (815) 316-3307 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

Well according to this, the solution that Somerset CC is providing is an MLE. I hadn't heard that term before so have no real idea what it is but that is what we've got/are getting...
I logged into the EMBC Gateway the other day and was presented with a link to this document
According to Becta its says schools should eventually work towards an MLE. I know some of you already have VLE's i was just wondering would you guys eventually work towards an MLE or stick with what you have. Also the people looking at VLE's have you looked at MLE'?
Sorry if the question isn't worded correctly Having difficulties trying to put down my question on paper!
Well according to this, the solution that Somerset CC is providing is an MLE. I hadn't heard that term before so have no real idea what it is but that is what we've got/are getting...
Virtual Learning Environment
Managed Learning Environment
Pretty much the same thing as far as I can tell, except you run one yourself and someone else runs the other one (manages it)
I'll be sticking with a VLE, until such time as our LEA can manage the access in an automatic way with disparate users such as we have.
I want to do authentification against my AD, (Single Sign On) and our AD takes into account not only all our new students but also staff, temporary staff, adult education groups, governers etc, etc.
Until our LEA provides a fully integrated service for all of our users, and I don't beleive this will happen. So unless I get completely outsourced with BSF, again which I don;t beleive will happen, we are very unlikely to be using an MLE.
Oh, that would be brilliant - at the moment we have about 4 different logins for the systems. 1 for staff email, 1 for pupil email, 1 for AD, 1 for sims.net, 1 for the Learning gateway (but this can be swapped fot the staff email one) and 1 for the learnwise software (but this is being fixed so that the Learning gateway username/pass does the job), and 1 for editing our school website.Originally Posted by budgester
I am refusing to be the person who sets up users for parents to access the learning gateway! Some other poor soul can do that!
Later on today will write what a mle is unless someone comes along explains before then.
This is a direct cut 'n' paste from the BECTA guidelines -Originally Posted by russdev
"More advanced systems, often called virtual learning environments (VLEs)
These offer more sophisticated tools such as learner support (course
information, tutor support, live mentors, peer support), learner tools (such as tools to create web pages), management and tracking of learneractivity, and more highly developed assessment tools.
Managed learning environments (MLEs)
These are comprehensive systems where the VLE and the school management information systems (MIS) and other programs (such as finance or staffing systems) can share data and exchange information. It is intended that all schools will ultimately have access to an MLE."
Hopefully, this will give a basic idea of the difference VLE and MLE.

Hi RobertOriginally Posted by robert.mabbutt
All I can say to schools in the Northants area is that as far as MLE / VLE / Learning Platform / eLearning Gateway goes .... please hang fire ... a group of lucky people are chatting with suppliers over this week and the week after half-term. There will be information sent to your school (and uploaded onto here too) about this soon.
Shibboleth isn't a Single sign on system.Originally Posted by eduabncs
From Wikipedia
How many of your applications/systems are shibboleth enabled ?Shibboleth is an Internet2 Middleware Initiative project that has created an architecture and open-source implementation for federated identity-based authentication and authorization infrastructure based on SAML. Federated identity allows for information about users in one security domain to be provided to other organizations in a common federation. This allows for cross-domain single sign-on and removes the need for content providers to maintain usernames and passwords. Identity providers (IdP's) supply user information, while service providers (SP's) consume this information and gate access to secure content.
Building an MLE is not a fun idea. The trouble we find is you usually end up buying various bolt-on's and then trying to build a web interface round them
Very true, what would be sensible would be to have something like a standard API, with a SOAP interface for each application.Originally Posted by kylewilliamson
Shibboleth is the mechanism / application layer through which SSO occurs.Originally Posted by budgester
This is being standardised so that resources within the NEN can be access and shared as content through learning platforms that can search via meta-tagging ...
Authentication is a key part of this, hence the importance of Shibboleth as the standard used. AD can be enabled fairly easily (and a good number of LAs have methods of doing this already) ... as can pretty much all LDAP servers.
The Shibboleth system is managed by the UK Access Management Federation for Education and Research . As mentioned previously it will probably come on the back of BSF or implemented by the local authority when they get around to it. To apply to join the scheme before it is steamrollered, the link is here
It does have some real advantages. Schools can share resources more easily and companies can share resources in schools, both moodle, apache and many other applications can use shibboleth for authentication. I didn't get the impression MLEs and VLE's were mutually exclusive -It would be excellent for our kids to be able to get resources from deptX in another school, whilst sharing resource Y in our own VLE with authenticated users. This type of shared authentication has been going on in universities for a long time, eg. the Athens system for access to Web Of Science, mimas etc. Becta are trying to get schools to follow suit, but without carrots and sticks - BSF contracts are all they have.
Thanks GrumbleDook for the local info. Very much appreciated as always
I had an IT teacher come in work today saying I visted a school on Friday they have a VLE its brilliant we should do it!
In my mind i was going woah calm down dear! From what i have been reading on the net and especially EduGeek the implementation of one of these is not an easy task and would need careful planning. Espeically when in the past products and services have been rushed into and now sit dormant!
I do belive mle/vle's have there place and can be an excellent resource however it needs clear concise planning and work in partnership with our LEA to create a solution benefits our students.

Neil Patrick Harris, Elton John Take Their Babies Yachting
Originally posted 08/05/2011 08:50AM
After a cruise along the Italian Mediterranean that included a stop in Portofino for gelato, Elton John and his family played host to their close pals Neil Patrick Harris and his family in the South of France on Thursday.
Harris, 38, and partner David Burtka shared the task of carrying 10-month-old twins Gideon Scott and Harper Grace from Sir Elton's yacht, while John's partner, David Furnish, kept grip on the couple's own 7-month-old son, Zachary.
"It took a bit of organization," one source tells PEOPLE, "because they had to come ashore by launch. And that has to be done very carefully with infants."
Elton's John's Son's Breast Milk Comes via Fedex

Elton John is rightly known for doing things with a flourish. And that includes delivering breast milk to his son.
"We have the breast milk Fedexed from where she is," says the musician, referring to the biological mother of his and partner David Furnish's 4-month-old son, Zachary Jackson Levon Furnish-John.
What the new parents don't have, despite British tabloid reports to the contrary, are multi-million-dollar nurseries in their homes, four nannies in service, or special baby chefs.
"We have one nanny. And we're very hands-on," John told ABC's Barbara Walters for a 20/20 interview. "And we take him to lunch."

But there are still more revelations to come.
The couple have thrown open the doors to their home and their lives for a Barbara Walters special airing on ABC's 20/20 Friday night.

Elton John and his partner David Furnish have joined a handful of European royals – and Kate Middleton's mailman – on the exclusive list of invitees to the royal wedding.
Despite John's earlier insistence that he wouldn't snag a spot at the April 29 ceremony, "We do have an invitation," the singer tells Canada's CTV. "I've been trying to be discreet."
He also shares thoughts on the bride-to-be, noting that Kate "is Diana in personality. She is very discreet, she is a very beautiful girl. They have been together a long time and I think she has handled the pressure so much."

The son of Elton John and David Furnish, who was born via surrogate on Christmas Day, was the topic of a Tweet from John's pal Elizabeth Hurley on Tuesday.
"Can't wait for my first cuddle," Hurley Tweeted on Tuesday. The actress also told PEOPLE exclusively that she knows the singer and his partner will make great parents.

Fes, Casablanca and a final goodbye to Morocco
... And sleep we did...we didnt
get up until 5pm that evening.
When we did eventually get up and
moving, we decided to try and find the CTM (coach) office to book our
ticket to Casablanca the next day. On the way into the medina, we got
talking to a guy who happily took us to the station. He said that he
was on couch surfing, so if we wanted, we could stop with him one
night and he will show us the city. So we decided ...
Intro to Morocco: Fes
... the holiday was the next Friday, the day we would return to Madrid.) On this day, people kill sheep, then feast for three straight days- Friday through Sunday. It felt like Thanksgiving in that everyone was stocking up on their supplies before the holiday took place. Most families would buy their sheep up to a week ahead ...
Tagines and topless massages
... and the gardens were very pretty. That night I went for tapas with some friends, and we found a place that gives you free tapas with your drinks, though you can't choose what tapas you get. After that we went for a hunt to find churros, as we had previously been unsuccessful twice! We tried to get some after lunch, but the waiter told us that they aren't available from 1-5pm – the churros chef must take an extra-long siesta! The waiter told us that in ...
Almost pulled a Mallory
Tuesday we spent the day by the pool, trying to soak up every little bit of sun we could on our last day in Tangier. Then we grabbed a six hour bus ride back to Fes! Thankfully, the cab dropped us off directly in front the door of out hotel this time, no scary alley ways.
Wednesday we headed into the Medina (the old city) with amazing shopping. The Medina is 14 square kilometers, we only conquered one little corner. ...

I keep meaning to pick up the novels from Vertical. It's too bad that the author passed away before finishing the series. :[ But I'm glad Sentai picked it up the anime and will be releasing it as well. :]
In other news, did anyone else notice that Viz put this at the bottom of their Shojo Beat newsletter about the Vampire Knight anime being up on Viz Anime? I knew they had the manga, but had they announced the anime?

You're likely referring to AnimeYoshi and EnigmaCollective. The group that picked up the series and finished it after AniYoshi stalled/dropped is frong.
I have yet to see Cross Game, but with Haruka Tomatsu as the main seiyuu, I'm trying to find time to watch it. Hopefully whoever brings it over doesn't butcher it. After all, Ookiku Furikabutte already didn't go so well for Funimation that they had to come out and say they wouldn't licensed the second season.

The dubbed trailer was commissioned by Aniplex to promote the show's available license. Sentai had nothing to do with it, and they have not announced their release plans. They may still be deciding whether to dub it or not.
They likely only confirmed this now, because Aniplex leaked this license back in April, and this had already made it's way to several websites, including this one: animenewsnetwork.com/bbs/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=116006&start=45 .

It looked really good in the trailer, which I saw back when it debuted and I will have my fingers crossed for a dub. seeing as the Trailer is dubbed.
Although, I really don't know who made dub for the trailer, just I'm sure it wasn't the Japanese. They might have hired someone though.

|I didn't know Nobuo Uematsu did the music for this. I'm more interested in checking it out now since this is the 2nd artist from the Final Fantasy franchise I've seen working on "Guin Saga." Yoshitaka Amano did some of the original book covers way back when, and might even be the originator for a lot of the character designs.

The X Button - Due Recognition
Todd looks at the good, bad, and downright strange highlights of the year! Plus SaGa's return, Afterburner's goodbye, and a bunch of holiday stories! ― The X Button will take next week off. It's time for a Christmas break, or as close as I can get to one now that I'm no longer a kid. I'll return the week after for more end-of-year retrospection, Guilty Gear ravings, and facts about old MSX games. Th...
Toriko Part I DVD
Toriko is about manly men doing manly things in the most masculine way possible, and that's part of its particular charm. ― Garfield – the cat, not the president – once said, "If I couldn't eat, I'd just die." While that was the punchline of a strip, it is essentially the basis of the anime series Toriko, based on the manga of the same name by Mitsutoshi Shimabukuro. This collection of the first two ...

Puella Magi Madoka Magica: The Different Story ends on as high a note as it can while still being pretty depressing. ― Warning: contains some spoilers for the original Puella Magi Madoka Magica.

REVIEW: Cowboy Bebop: The Complete Series Blu-ray
One of the most beloved anime series of all time arrives in high definition from Funimation, but is it the definitive release that we're all hoping for, and after all this time, what does the show mean? ― There are 26 "sessions" in Cowboy Bebop's vaunted run, now rendered gorgeously in high definition on this long-awaited blu-ray release, but they can all be summed up pretty well by a fuzzy little st...
The Mike Toole Show - What Price Freedom?

(Yes, I'm referencing something I published just a few weeks ago. This is the real life version of when...
Ajin GN 1
Ajin is not an easy series or one that you would call "fun," but it is a very good one. ― Who is the monster and who is the man?

Tsuina Miura takes a different look at the same issue in Ajin, which examines questions of fear and man's...

About Me
Thank you for dropping by to this profile.
I love art and able to do what I love is something that I am grateful about. Photography is one of many other art stuff that I have been doing regularly. I have been in modeling since 2008 (age 18yrs). I have done many shoots with different photographers (amateur-pro), appeared in magazine, PSAs, music video, TVC and I hope many more to come.
Whenever I am not on a set and people ask "Are you a model?" I'd answer them by saying "Photography is my hobby". Yes, my aim in modeling isn't all about making money but I am using it to embrace something that I love to do and chances to know people from who has same interest is a blessing! I am open to any kind of concept/themes as long as it does not involve any nudity or eroticism.
If you are interested to collaborate or if you have an open opportunity, drop me a message at andelisia at gmail.com.
Thank you and have an awesome day!

Barchart Morning Call 12/2 0 commentsBarchart Morning CallBarchart.com - Fri Dec 02, 7:00AM CSTOvernight Developments
- Global stocks this morning are mostly higher with the Euro Stoxx 50 up +1.40% and Dec S&Ps up +12.90 points. The dollar and Treasuries weakened as stocks and commodities rose ahead of this morning's Nov U.S. payrolls report. The euro strengthened against the dollar and European bank stocks rallied as yields on Italian and Spanish government bonds declined, while the cost of credit default swaps to insure European government debt also fell. German Chancellor Merkel rejected the idea of joint Euro-Zone bonds or trying to make the ECB the lender of last resort, saying overcoming the region's sovereign debt crisis "will take years" as she renewed her push for European fiscal union. European finance ministers and government leaders will meet Dec 9 in Brussels as they seek a remedy to the region's debt crisis. Oct Euro-Zone PPI rose +0.1% m/m and +5.5% y/y, weaker than expectations of +0.2% m/m and +5.6% y/y.
- Asian stocks today closed mixed with Japan up +0.54%, China -1.02%, Australia +1.40%, South Korea -0.13%, India +2.20%. Japanese stocks closed higher, led by a rally in builders and construction companies, after the Japanese government said it plans a fourth extra budget of more than 2 trillion yen ($26 billion) to help shore up the economic recovery and help rebuild after the Mar earthquake. Exporters gained as the yen weakened against the dollar after Japanese Finance Minister Azumi said he will take action on speculative currency moves and after Japanese Trade and Industry Minister Edano said he doubts the strong yen reflects the country's economic fundamentals. Q3 Japan capital spending excluding software tumbled -11.0%, a larger-than-expected decline of -3.0% and the biggest drop since Q1 2010. Chinese stocks closed lower, led by a drop in energy and material producers. Also airlines stocks declined after the China Securities Journal reported that the government raised jet fuel prices by 376 yuan per ton to 7,853 yuan per ton in December.
- December S&Ps this morning are trading up +12.90 points ahead on Nov U.S. payrolls. The US stock market yesterday settled mixed as stronger-than-expected U.S. manufacturing data was offset by weakness in financial stocks: Dow Jones -0.21%, S&P 500 -0.19%, Nasdaq Composite +0.22%. The S&P 500, the Dow and the Nasdaq all posted 2-week highs. Bearish factors included (1) global growth concerns after the larger-than-expected contraction in Nov China manufacturing by the most in 2-3/4 years, (2) the unexpected increase in weekly initial U.S. unemployment claims (+6,000 to 402,000 versus expectations of -3,000 to 390,000), the warning from the United Nations that the world economy would grind to a halt should European leaders fail to contain the region's debt crisis as risks of a double-dip recession in the U.S. and Europe loom, and (4) weakness in financial stocks after the state of Massachusetts sued 5 lenders, including Bank of America and JPMorgan Chase, over foreclosure practices.
- Bullish factors included (1) reduced European debt concerns after the yields on Spanish and French bonds fell after both countries had successful government debt auctions, (2) the larger-than-expected increase in the Nov ISM manufacturing index which expanded at its fastest pace in 5 months (+1.9 to 52.7 versus expectations of +0.9 to 51.7), (3) the stronger-than-expected Oct construction spending (+0.8% versus expectations of +0.3%), and (4) comments from St. Louis Fed President Bullard who said he sees stronger growth in 2012 after better than expected economic news in the fall of this year.
- Bank of America (NYSE:BAC) rose 2.2% and Citigroup (NYSE:C) climbed 1.9% in pre-market trading on carry-over strength fram a rally in European bank stocks.
- March 10-year T-notes this morning are down -1.5 ticks. T-note prices yesterday settled lower as safe-haven demand from the ongoing European debt crisis offset stronger than expected U.S. manufacturing data and construction spending: TYH12 -6.5, FVH12 -3, EDM12 -0.5. Bearish factors included (1) the larger-than-expected increase in the Nov ISM manufacturing index which expanded at its fastest pace in 5 months (+1.9 to 52.7 versus expectations of +0.9 to 51.7), (2) the stronger-than-expected Oct construction spending (+0.8% versus expectations of +0.3%), and (3) comments from St. Louis Fed President Bullard who said he sees stronger growth in 2012 after better than expected economic news in the fall of this year. Bullish factors included (1) the unexpected increase in weekly initial U.S. unemployment claims (+6,000 to 402,000 versus expectations of -3,000 to 390,000), (2) the larger-than-expected contraction in Nov China manufacturing by the most in 2-3/4 years, which may lead to a slowdown in the global economy, and (3) the warning from the United Nations that the world economy would grind to a halt should European leaders fail to contain the region's debt crisis as risks of a double-dip recession in the U.S. and Europe loom.
- The dollar index this morning is slightly weaker with the dollar/yen +0.29 yen and the euro/dollar +0.28 cents. The dollar index yesterday settled slightly lower after successful government debt auctions by Spain and France lowered their bond yields and boosted the euro: Dollar Index -0.093, USDJPY +0.078, EURUSD +0.00158. Bearish factors for the dollar included, (1) the drop in the bond yields of Spain and France after Spain sold 3.75 billion euros of 5-year bonds, the maximum planned, while France sold 1.57 billion euros of 10-year bonds at an average yield of 3.18%, down from 3.22% at the last auction on Nov 3, which reduced European debt concerns and boosted the euro and (2) euro positive comments from ECB President Draghi that the ECB's program of buying government bonds "can only be limited," which reduces speculation the ECB will expand its asset-buying program. Bullish factors included (1) increased safe-haven demand for the dollar after contraction in the Nov China PMI manufacturing for the first time in 2-3/4 years bolstered concerns of a global economic slowdown and (2) the stronger-than-expected Nov ISM manufacturing and Oct construction spending, which reduces recession concerns in the U.S.
- Jan crude oil prices this morning are up +88 cents a barrel and Jan gasoline is +6.61 cents per gallon. Crude oil and gasoline prices yesterday settled lower for the first day in five after weekly U.S. jobless claims unexpectedly rose and Chinese manufacturing contracted for the first time in 2-3/4 years, signaling an economic slowdown: CLF12 -$0.16, RBF12 -0.19. Bearish factors included (1) the larger-than-expected decline in the Nov China PMI manufacturing which contracted for the first time since Feb 2009 and indicates reduced fuel demand and consumption in the world's second-largest crude consumer, (2) the unexpected increase in weekly U.S. unemployment claims, which may slow economic growth and fuel demand, and (3) data from Poten & Partners that shows Libyan crude exports may rise 22% this week to 3.3 million barrels, increasing global crude supplies. Bullish factors included (1) the weaker dollar, which encourages investment demand for commodities and (2) the stronger-than-expected Nov ISM manufacturing index which expanded at its fastest pace in 5 months and indicates strong fuel consumption.

/ Ben Lui - central gully
Just wondering if anyone's been near Ben Lui recently. I was thinking of having a cheeky wee solo on central gully weds/thurs, or would I be better off doing a circuit of the ridges?
Cheers in advance
I went past at the weekend, so can only comment on what I saw from a distance, and what I understand of our recent conditions - I would stick to the ridges for now. Not enough consolidation yet.
I think it says in one of my guidebooks that it's best avoided early and late in the season.
I'd stick to a ridge somewhere but it's your call.
Big dump of snow sunday night and during monday. I wouldn't go anywhere near it.
The circuit of the ridge is a very enjoyable outing in its own right--Grade I in places and pleasingly spiky.
Might check out the gully, but the ridges are definitely favorite at the mo.
No-ones saying wait for perfect conditions just wait till it looks half decent which it doesn't right now. That way you are less likely to waste a day going to see.
Evidence of avalanches below some of the Glencoe gullies today, and if anything there looked to be slightly more fresh snow in southern Highlands today. I'd say going to have a look at Central Gully would be pretty un-wise.
There is perfect conditions and there are stupid conditions. Ben Lui is a notorious avalanche black spot - read "chance in a million". I wouldn't touch it with a barge pole after heavy fresh snow fall and no consolidation.
Swum some of the way up West Gully on Beinn an Dothaidh on Saturday, there was absolutely no consolidation and it was no fun.
There is absolutely no point in doing any gully route right now. If you are lucky they will consist of deep powder overlying loose rubble and the going will be slow and tortuous. If you are unlucky, windslab will be forming and you may get avalanched and die.
Do a ridge.
Who forced a man with your vast experience up West Gully on Saturday?
We were looking for a route on the wall beyond Taxus. It wasn't dangerous, just unpleasant.
I could see evidence of slides underneath some of the gullies on Stob Coire nan Lochan, but I'm not sure about elsewhere. I'd certainly recommend against climbing any of the gullies in Glencoe for a little while, lots of fresh snow lying on top of a layer of largely unconsolidated older stuff.
As all have already said stick to the ridges, but if you head out when planned for central gully I dare say you will come across avalanche debris at the moment, enjoy your back up plan and climb safe

Don't Discount JCP Commitment To Its Plan
Monday July 9th, 2012 - 10:34AM
These are shortcuts to your favorite social networking and bookmark sites. Add this story to your Facebook page, del.icio.us, DiggIt, and many others!
JC Penney is learning there are few fast and easy victories when it comes to changing entrenched retailing culture in a market that has come to depend on coupons and discounts to drive consumer traffic.
Michael Francis is out at Penney in the wake of steeper-than-expected sales declines blamed by most informed observers on the retailer's Fair & Square pricing rollout. Perhaps someone had to pay the price. And an adjustment of the pricing strategy to wean Penney customers off excessive sale promotion more gradually could be in order.
Willing Sacrifice?
It begs many questions. Is Penney willing to sacrifice many of its traditional customers in the near term to build a robust base of younger customers more important to its long-term prospects? And is there enough patience in the market to wait until Penney's forthcoming merchandise reset has had a chance to take root before declaring success or failure?
Penney's recent Father's Day ad featuring a male couple with their children is further evidence of Penney's willingness to risk a little controversy in an effort to connect the brand with an emerging younger market. A study by Vision Critical indicates consumers 18-34 were more likely to view the ad positively while consumers 55 and older were more likely to find the ad distasteful or offensive.
Attention Grabber
Other recent research suggests the younger consumers that Penney seems to have its eye on don't respond to the idea of discounting with the same fervor of more experienced shoppers who have been trained to expect a sale. Young shoppers prefer the sound of a deal better. It might be semantics, but it matters when you're trying to grab their attention.
The same research suggests such younger consumers are more likely to embrace a total retailing experience— affordable pricing included, but not necessarily the dominant factor— better tuned to their lifestyles.
Penney sees Martha Stewart as a brand that can bridge traditional and younger consumers. Meanwhile, JC Penney CEO Ron Johnson has dipped into familiar turf with plans to rollout programs by Michael Graves and Bodum, both of which he brought to Target years ago to give the retailer more cred among the trendier set. These brands, and others the retailer is prepping for its reset, seem geared toward building a much more progressive Penney shopper profile.
America's Choice
JC Penney wants to become America's favorite place to shop as it continues to stage the rollout of its new identity. Penney is beginning to identify more clearly the America the retailer believes will be vital to its future.
JC Penney might have to compromise a bit in the near term on its no-nonsense pricing plan to prevent an irreversible falloff in core customers trained to expect a discount. But don't expect many more concessions when it comes to the implementation of a shopping experience meant to mitigate the dependency on coupons and sale promotion to capture a viable, long-term customer base.
Crafting compelling merchandising schemes when discounting is not the intended differentiator is becoming increasingly difficult for retailers.
JC Penney management isn't blind to the risks. Commitment can help overcome risk.
The question is whether JC Penney will get enough time for a reasonable chance to declare victory.

In Turkey's local elections, all eyes on Erdogan
ISTANBUL (AP) — Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan has been ensnared in a corruption scandal that has toppled four Cabinet ministers. He has provoked outrage at home and abroad with an attempt to block Twitter and YouTube. His incessant us-against-them rhetoric and conspiracy theories have alienated allies. Meanwhile, the Turkish Lira has fallen, interest rates are up and the Turkish economy has fallen off a cliff.
It all might be enough to oust any leader.
But as Turks prepare to vote in local elections Sunday, Erdogan remains at the center of the political scene.
Despite his woes, Erdogan — who has presided over Turkey's astonishing economic ascent as well as its recent troubles — is Turkey's ubiquitous man. His image is everywhere in the streets and on TV. He leads daily campaign rallies, in which the local candidates he is supporting have a decisively secondary role. The size and the fervor of these rallies, which regularly attract hundreds of thousands of supporters, show that nearly 11 years into his tenure as prime minister, Erdogan remains the pre-eminent figure in Turkish politics.
Erdogan is buoyed by a dysfunctional opposition and the adulation of devout Muslim middle-classes in Turkey's heartland, who have seen him as their ticket to prosperity and who are likely to back him through thick and thin.
While there is no doubt that the corruption scandal has damaged him, the questions looming over Sunday's vote are how the results may influence his next big moves and his political options.
It remains unclear whether he'll run for president this summer. Erdogan has harbored ambitions of changing the constitution to strengthen the role of the largely ceremonial presidency — so he can step into the post and rule Turkey with as much authority as he has enjoyed as premier. He is prohibited from running again as prime minister by term limits that he himself instituted.
However, the abrasive tack he has taken since he was re-elected with nearly 50 percent of the vote in June 2011 has cost him the support of a Kurdish party that he needs to pass the constitutional changes. It's also unclear whether he could ever achieve the 50 percent of the vote required to capture the presidency.
Erdogan has signaled that he may choose another option: to backtrack on term-limits and run for a fourth term as prime minister in parliamentary elections. Those elections are slated for next year, but the government could move them up to coincide with the presidential elections, if they see that as an advantage.
Although quality polling is hard to come by in Turkey, it is widely expected that his AK Party will outstrip opposition parties Sunday, winning a plurality of the vote. But how much of a plurality will matter. Erdogan's party has already been trying to lower expectations. His party has pointed to the 39 percent they received in the 2009 local elections as a benchmark.
Races for mayor in Ankara and Istanbul will also be watched for signs that Erdogan's power base is eroding. In both cities, the main-opposition CHP has entered candidates with broader appeal than usual to take on incumbents from Erdogan's party.

Oklahoma City, OK (Sports Network) - Kevin Durant made 16-of-21 shots from the field on his way to a season-high 45 points while pulling down 11 rebounds, as the Oklahoma City Thunder held off the Golden State Warriors, 112-104, at the Ford Center.
Durant has now scored at least 25 points in 21 straight games for the Thunder, who improved to 2-1 on a four-game homestand, which concludes Tuesday against the Hawks.
Russell Westbrook added 28 points, eight assists, and five rebounds for Oklahoma City, which got 14 points and seven rebounds apiece from Jeff Green and Thabo Sefolosha.
"We made plays. Russell did a great job of getting everyone into the sets and finding us good shots. They're a tough team," Durant said.
Corey Maggette ended with 26 points and five boards for the Warriors, who have dropped five in a row and nine of 11 overall. Monta Ellis chipped in 25 points. Stephen Curry tallied 14 points and five assists while CJ Watson added 13 points off the bench for Golden State, which fell to 4-20 away from Oakland this season.
The Thunder put together a 12-2 burst early in the third to build a seven- point cushion. Westbrook capped the run with four free throws to make it 66-59 with nine minutes remaining.
Ahead 75-70 with 4 1/2 minutes to go, Oklahoma City ripped off 10 consecutive points to create some breathing room. Serge Ibaka's layup made it an 85-70 game with 2 1/2 minutes left. The score was 87-75 after three quarters.
Green opened the fourth with a jumper, but the Warriors scored the next eight points to cut the gap to 89-83 with less than 9 1/2 minutes to play. The Thunder maintained that edge until Golden State made things interesting late.
An Ellis trey cut the deficit to 107-104 with 1 1/2 minutes remaining. Westbrook made two free throws for the Thunder to make it a five-point contest with 45.6 seconds to go.
Ibaka then blocked Maggette at the other end, and Westbrook made 1-of-2 from the line this time around to make it a 110-104 game with 36.2 ticks showing on the clock.
Durant made two free throws with 21.1 seconds left to account for the final margin.
With the score tied at 18 past the midway point of the first quarter, the Thunder ripped off eight straight points with Westbrook's free throw making it 26-18 with less than three minutes to go. Oklahoma City held a 29-26 margin after 12 minutes.
A Coby Karl layup and Ronny Turiaf jumper had Golden State in front 38-36 with 7 1/2 minutes left until half. The Warriors held a 55-54 edge at the break.
"We need to work on closing games once we have control in the second half," Curry said.

Barnes & Noble offers free e-books for bringing something that can read them to a store
May 17, 2010 | 7:51 pm
By Chris Meadows
Barnes & Noble is offering a new free e-book every week for the next few weeks, with a twist: to redeem the e-book download, you have to come into a Barnes & Noble store and show them your Nook or your general-purpose device (iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch, Blackberry, HTC HD2, PC, or Mac) running Barnes & Noble's eReader. (Or just bring the device and the staff will help you put eReader on it.) You then receive a voucher you can redeem at B&N's website to download your e-book.
On the one hand, this seems to negate one of the key advantages of e-books—the ability to get them without having to bestir yourself from your comfortable chair. But on the other, it is a way to get people into the store, at which point they might theoretically buy a physical book. Though on the gripping hand, it is doubtful too many people who want a free e-book will be terribly interested in buying a costly physical one.
This week's free title, available through May 23rd, is The No.1 Ladies' Detective Agency by Alexander McCall Smith. Next week's title is Storm Front, the first Dresden Files novel, by Jim Butcher. Other titles will include The Long Tail by Chris Anderson, Home Safe by Elizabeth Berg, and One Shot by Lee Childs. All e-book vouchers can be redeemed through July 1.
More information can be found in Barnes & Noble's press release.

I think it's great that BN is working on ways to make eBooks and bookstores compatible. For sure, I like to look at books, flip through bookshelves, then decide what to buy. Whether that type of interest can sustain the high overhead of running retail stores with thousands of feet of floor space, I'm not sure. I have to hope so, though. A bookstore is a great place to have a coffee.
Rob Preece
B&N definitely wants its NOOK owners to drop by the stores regularly. The NOOK offers some free goodies when it's within range of a B&N Wi-Fi hotspot: More In Store freebies, Read In Store, and occasionally special coupons and the like.
Not all books are available as e-books; books with photos and artwork are particularly resistant to e-publishing. The NOOK is sold for use by adults, and there's a large children's book section at most B&N stores.
Plus, B&N sells more than just books. While you're in the store you might see a promotional banner of interest, spot a display of books that triggers you to buy an e-book, pick up a magazine or two, buy some CDs (how quaint), maybe buy an accessory for your NOOK, or stop in at the B&N Cafe. And it doesn't hurt for the other shoppers to see people walking around holding, or sitting around reading, their NOOKs.
In contrast, once you buy a Kobo reader at Borders, you'll have a lot less reason to ever set foot in a Borders store again. And Borders has already been shuttering their stores at an unfortunate rate.
Barnes & Noble doesn't want us NOOK owners to forget about the B&N stores. Seems like good thinking to me.
I think it's also about getting a lot of people who have iPhones, Droids, Blackberries, etc, into the stores to get a Nook downloaded onto their machines. The platform price isn't the big money maker – selling a bunch of e-books is.
And you win the internets for using the Niven-Pournelle expression.
