Wynn a terrific company and I was buying when it was in the 15 to 20 range. I still have a core position. If there is a market crash or correction Wynn will slide along with LVS and folks still remember 2008-2009. I see the possibility of Wynn hitting 120's or even lower with such a scenario.
On the other side if Wynn gets Boston there will be a quick bump up but most will sell into the rally..
This s a strong buy in the 120's price range
Ive been an owner of Wynn since 2008-09 and still have a core position and sold some of course since the profits were so large.
In the next few months the market may present another good opportunity to enter Wynn as I think this could go as low as the 120's maybe even lower with a lot of head winds in Macau and slowing economy in Vegas mixed with a downturn in the market...

Cal's Conte walks the line,
Rusty Simmons, Chronicle Staff Writer
Published 4:00 am, Sunday, October 11, 2009
|Larger | Smaller
|Printable Version
|Email This
When Cal defensive back Chris Conte walks into the Rose Bowl on Saturday, he might be as comfortable with his surroundings as anyone on the host UCLA roster.
"I was over there all of the time as a kid," said Conte, who went to Loyola High-Los Angeles and lived about 10 minutes away from the campus. "We went to nearly every basketball game, football games, baseball games, whatever. UCLA was pretty much where I spent my time growing up."
That's why it was such a surprise when Conte, a junior, switched his verbal commitment from UCLA to Cal two years ago. It's a choice he still talks about with a handful of the current members of the Bruins' roster.
"That was the hardest decision I've ever had to make in my life, and it totally changed my life," Conte said. "I wouldn't be the same person if I would have stayed home and gone to UCLA. I've matured a lot more by leaving home, living on my own, not having my parents or friends and being able to establish myself. ... It would have pretty much been an extension of high school if I went to UCLA, but I'm getting a real-life, college experience."
Conte is a reserve corner and safety this year, two seasons after earning a starting corner spot as a true freshman. He had 32 tackles in 2007, 28 tackles and an interception in 2008, but has just five stops in limited action this season.
That hasn't stopped him from some friendly pregame trash-talking with UCLA players Aaron Hester, Alterraun Verner, Terrence Austin and Nelson Rosario.
"It's an exciting game because you don't want to let them beat you," Conte said. "There'll be trash-talking from the winning side for an entire year, so you have to show up and play hard. You can't let them get bragging rights.
"Most of it will come after the game, when I see them in person, but there's been plenty of texting and messages on Facebook heading into the game."

It's less aimless and has renewed momentum--even if its plots tread familiar ground.
Privileged has the potential to be a largely positive, female-skewing series.
The first hour of Heroes answers enough questions and moves the story forward in such a way that a few "Huh?" moments won't matter as long as they're answered in short order and don't linger for too long.
It's not groundbreaking TV, but the pilot does a good job of introducing the characters, their relationships, their potential relationships.
As creator Marc Cherry explained this summer, he wanted to re-set the series and get the stories back to something more closely resembling reality. Sunday's season premiere does that pretty well with some of the women's stories, especially Lynette (Felicty Huffman), whose twins are now terrible teens.
The first two half-hour episodes, airing at 9 and 9:30 p.m. Friday, are less raucous and seemingly more adult than the film. There's more attention to character development; Jabba the Hutt's flamboyant uncle isn't anywhere to be found.
Valentine, created by Kevin Murphy ("Desperate Housewives," "Reefer Madness: The Movie Musical"), is fine but nothing special.
My Own Worst Enemy sets up what could be an overly complicated premise and miraculously makes it all seem perfectly acceptable and clear by the end of the first hour.
Stylista is a guilty pleasure thanks to its cast of catfighting, bickering characters, including one who is hospitalized following a panic attack in episode two.
House of Saddam offers a fascinating but limited portrait of the Iraqi tyrant.
The show's trademark time shifts continue, although it's initially unclear if they're connected to the season one story that carries over or to the season two plot.
This season doesn't really kick into gear until night two, when Bill Buchanan (James Morrison) and Chloe (Marylynn Rajskub) return, operating outside the bounds of the government.
The Beast, named after Barker's reference to his FBI job, seems like a pretty plain cop drama with added "Road House"-style grit until the end of the first hour, when a new wrinkle adds more intrigue.
The episode is a fast-moving two hours that answers enough questions to satisfy fans and raises still more questions in an effort to further the intrigue.
Some of the humor works less well--Martin playing five instruments while flipping through a sketch pad is more strange than funny--but Martin is clearly a smart guy and his intellectual humor succeeds more often than it fails.
The humor in Eastbound is a far cry from the cerebral comedy currently en vogue on shows like "The Office" and "30 Rock," but that doesn't mean Eastbound can't do sly humor that falls left of center.
Kings begins with a refined approach and grows more pedestrian in subsequent episodes. Still, there's plenty to love about this series that dances with symbolism--the butterfly on the Gilboa flag is not a mere adornment--and replaces clandestine backrooms with windowed board rooms.
It's an entertaining enough diversion that may grow more intriguing as other series end their season-long runs next month and viewers become more desperate for fresh entertainment.
It must be said that viewing Grey Gardens without prior knowledge of the Beales' story would make it easier to like the HBO version....Michael Sucsy directs an HBO version that takes a little of this, a little of that, in building toward a (sort-of) happy ending that's hard to swallow.
- Critic Score
Not only do the other stories save True Blood--before you can get sick of Sookie and Bill, Blood shifts its focus to more interesting characters--but the show's persistent humor breaks through with enough frequency to have an impact.
Curb is filled with uncomfortable comedy, as always, but its humor stems from the relatable minutiae of everyday life, not unlike what viewers watched on "Seinfeld."
It's a generally strong episode as House attempts to annoy his doctors so much that they'll sign off on his departure.
Plot contrivances aside, the new season of Chuck gets off to a decent start as friendships rekindle (Chuck and best friend Morgan become roommates) and new parties get involved in subterfuge.
The first episode runs two hours and sets up all the characters, their relationships and backgrounds. It presents a serialized show with a lot of potential for growth and interesting plot possibilities, especially considering a scene at the end of the premiere that raises a whole host of questions.
The show, although plenty entertaining, also feels like it's grasping to keep the drama of Tara's situation at a suitably heightened level while other character story arcs, most notably Marshall's, feel more believable.
Against all odds, this mishmash of stark contrasts emerges as a surprisingly engaging film.
The movie--as Jane Austen might have described it--is an amiable entertainment.
- Critic Score
Sophomoric and crude, The Life & Times of Tim may be a viable alternative for fans of Cartoon Network's Adult Swim.
Disposable as it may be, Starter Wife still has more to recommend about it than, say, NBC's "Lipstick Jungle."
Of the two new cop shows this week, Southland is the more serious and realistic. It also demonstrates the potential for greater depth in its exploration of characters and their stories.

Posted 30 September 2009 - 12:53 PMHi all,
This is the first time we'll be going to glasto and was just wondering what the best day is to go to the site were traveling down on the wedensday (will get to bristol about 2 in afternoon) but was thinking about just going along on thursday morning, or would it be better to just get on shuttle bus and go right there???? does the majority of people go in on the wedensday?????
Cheers xx
Posted 30 September 2009 - 01:20 PMUntil last year when the festival advertised itself as a festival from Wednesday to Sunday, while a good number turned up on the Wednesday (and had been growing steadily over the years), most turned up after Wednesday.
Because of that change last year, huge numbers tried arriving on the Wednesday, leading to eight hours or more queuing in traffic for some. I suspect that next year will be the same (particularly for those arriving later in the day), so if you went on the Thursday you'd avoid those hassles.
There's barely any entertainment on the Wednesday and not much on the Thursday either (and none of the major stuff on either day), so from that angle you're not really missing anything by arriving on the Thursday. However, Glastonbury has a fantastic atmosphere, and just being there and soaking it up from the Wednesday makes it more than worthwhile arriving that early for many.
Posted 30 September 2009 - 02:09 PMI always like to arrive on the Wednesday, it gives you time to get set up and have a good wander about without worrying that you're missing something, there were so many people there on Wednesday last year tho, it was unbelieveable!
Posted 01 October 2009 - 01:16 PMWednesday.
First quest - blag a rest stop, floor, car seat close to site for Tuesday night.
Second quest - get up at crack of dawn to be in queue when gates open.
Third quest - lug tents to chosen field (if Pennards this will already be curiously full...side quest is to find space for 10 tents here) - fight and erect tents. Return to car for further supplies.
Camp all set up by midday - everyone can stop being antsy - have a drink/get some lunch/kip. Chill out - explore - enjoy
Daren't think about it... suppose I don't get a ticket....
Posted 01 October 2009 - 08:28 PMThe other factor to bear in mind is the speed with which the various camping areas fill up. You're well advised to try and get there as soon as possible on the Wednesday.
Posted 02 October 2009 - 01:33 AMI always like to arrive as early as I can on the wednesday if only to get it over with, once we're all set up its off to find a tea tent and a chill out at the stone circle. Also where I camp fills up quickly so it's always a worry!
Posted 02 October 2009 - 11:48 PM2009 was my first time - we left West Yorkshire just after midnight on Tuesday night & had a steady drive down, arriving at Sedgemoor service on the M5 around 4:30 am.
After a couple of hours kip we left the services and were 100 yards from the Orange entrance by 7am Wednesday morning.
By 8:30am we were walking through pedestrian gate D and fully set up by 10:30am on Wednesday morning.
I would recommend that approach to anyone - whilst there is very little happening on Wed/Thur the atmosphere is something to savour and gives you chance to get your bearings.
Posted 03 October 2009 - 12:10 AMYou have 2 choices.
If you wanna camp near the action, Wednesday, as earlier as possible.
If you don't mind camping around the edges and/or away form the 'action', Thursday will do, enough time before sundown to pitch your tent, get water and a brew (if your packing a brew up kit), and discover what is near you (handy place for breakfast, closest bar etc). Then you can get an earlish night and be fresh to enjoy the weekend.
Turning up Friday, just seems/feel like a rushed job, you will spend the whole day recovering from the journey, pitching tent etc, that you won't actually enjoy the day!
Posted 03 October 2009 - 01:52 PM
First quest - blag a rest stop, floor, car seat close to site for Tuesday night.
Second quest - get up at crack of dawn to be in queue when gates open.
Third quest - lug tents to chosen field (if Pennards this will already be curiously full...side quest is to find space for 10 tents here) - fight and erect tents. Return to car for further supplies.
Camp all set up by midday - everyone can stop being antsy - have a drink/get some lunch/kip. Chill out - explore - enjoy
Daren't think about it... suppose I don't get a ticket....
we were planning on doing the same thing. i will assume loads of folks will do this approach. do you think there will be a good place to gather early morning or late nght tuesday? did you have any thoughts?
Posted 03 October 2009 - 08:17 PMGlastonbury travelodge had spaces left a few days ago..you cant beat a night in Glastonbury town Tuesday and bimble in on Wednesday morning first thing. As everyone says - just get there 8am Wednesday whatever it takes - everything else is downhill from there..
Posted 03 October 2009 - 09:36 PMWe've always camped but this time will be trailer tenting. Any suggestions for an overnight location on Tuesday night close to the site?
Posted 03 October 2009 - 10:53 PM

Theres plenty of quiet little back lanes if you wanted nearby - saw a couple of campers clearly parked up for the night last year
Posted 03 October 2009 - 11:10 PMFrom what I gather all accommadation nearbye will be fully booked already, If I get a ticket I want to be there for the gates opening. Any ideas on what to do, we will be travelling down by bus or train as we don't drive. Thanks in advance.
Posted 04 October 2009 - 02:51 PMWednesday, got there for 7 waiting for an hour for gates to open then in , spent all day chilling and taking in all the sights ! never ceases to amaze me, so many happy people having the best time of their lives !
Posted 05 October 2009 - 07:44 AMWednesday....end of conversation.......enjoy.......
Posted 05 October 2009 - 10:25 AMI blame the Internet. People started claiming you had to arrive on Wednesday in order to get a decent campsite. It wasn't true.
Then enough people started taking that advice, that it became true.
I arrived about 10pm on Wednesday last year. Where my friends had set up, South Park, a long way out, had already filled up. I just about squeezed in.
Posted 05 October 2009 - 10:15 PMThinking of getting a train from London to Glasto on Tuesday and hotelling a night (afternoon to see the town) and getting up crack of dawn for gates opening. Did this at Reading as well (not hotel as its only about 30 minutes on train) and loved it
This rate I'm still going on my own though...
Posted 06 October 2009 - 01:04 PMUsually like to arrive as close to Weds morn as possible to avoid rush and get settled. Might leave early Weds morn this year. Seeing as we live in Brizzle we have advantage of not having to drive for hours and we know all the nice country lanes which negate hours of traffic. I remember my 1st Glasto in 97. My friends and i got stuck in traffic on Thursday night (so young, so stupid!) and decided to walk the rest. Ended up walking about 7 miles. Journey only made more fun by others doing teh same and constant beer breaks. Never left it that late again.
Posted 06 October 2009 - 01:28 PM
Hi all,
This is the first time we'll be going to glasto and was just wondering what the best day is to go to the site were traveling down on the wedensday (will get to bristol about 2 in afternoon) but was thinking about just going along on thursday morning, or would it be better to just get on shuttle bus and go right there???? does the majority of people go in on the wedensday?????
Cheers xx
Arrived Wednesday morning / lunch in 08 & only queued for about 15mins, this year was a bloody nightmare, but made bearable by the drinking, chatting to randoms & challenge anneka style searches for toilets in industrial estates. Also, we missed out a load of the queueing by skipping the jct & going down a couple, then heading in through back lanes. It's all part of the fun!
Posted 07 October 2009 - 05:04 PMThere is so much to see, especially if it's your first time so I'd suggest getting there on the Wednesday. Plus, if you're anything like I was on my first Glastonbury experience, you'll walk around in a daze of awe for the first while anyway. Give yourself as much time as possible before all of the craziness starts!

US firm Steptoe & Johnson has become the first firm to benefit from the dismantling of Oppenheimer Wolff & Donnelly's European network.
Steptoe has acquired the Brussels practice of Oppenheimer, which consists of three partners, one counsel and three associates.
Last summer Oppenheimer announced that it was to cut its costs by selling its European offices in Brussels, Geneva and Paris.
The Oppenheimer group is led by Jean Russotto, who is joined by two partners, Phillip Woolfson, an insurance and financial services lawyer who concentrates on EC and French law, and James Searles, an international trade and environment lawyer, who focuses on EU law and regulatory issues. They join Kees Kuilwijk, a partner specialising in technology issues, who has lead Steptoe's Brussels office since it opened in 2002.
Steptoe will continue its relationship with the Olislaegers De Creus law firm that assisted Oppenheimer with matters that require Belgium law expertise. Meanwhile, Steptoe has elected Roger Warin as the new chairman of the firm's executive committee and Douglas Green as the committee's vice-chair. They will succeed Lon Bouknight and Mike Kail on March 1, 2004.

The first German Muslim woman with Palestinian roots, Sawsan Chebli started her role as deputy spokeswoman for the German Foreign Ministry on Monday.
During the government press conference in Berlin, Chebli introduced herself and explained that her work as a deputy spokeswoman had officially begun.
Chebli said that she worked for 6 years at the parliament of Germany (Bundestag) but she had little experience as a press spokeswoman. She said that she was happy with her new post and underlined, "I hope that someday, that religion or ethnicity will be not in the foreground and will be perceived as normal."
It is expected that Chebli will be deputy spokeswoman for the Foreign Ministry for four years.

Practical Blogging Strategies for the Growing Business
We've talked about how important a unique approach is to establishing yourself as an expert. But you need one more thing before you can create your unique approach.
You need to discover your Niche Secret.
I remember waiting for the Google Dance. Old school SEO experts know what I'm referring to. Years ago, Google would update its index once a month. Online marketers would watch their search listings hoping for a jump in rankings. The next day, forums would fill with the lucky and the damned, those who thought Google was awesome and others that swore it was Satan incarnate.
Shane Snow, author of Shortcuts, is on the book tour circuit and he's lighting up the blogosphere with fascinating articles that highlight extraordinary people with uncommon skills.
His latest FastCompany article, 15 People Who Are Taking Networking To A New Level caught my attention. Snow list highlights people who have the ability to create connections between just about anyone. These folks sit at the nexus of the 2 degrees of separation.
Losers are the new cool kids. Read blog posts about "startups" and you'll detect the desperate stench of loser-worship.
Have you driven a prior business into the ground? Good job.
Do you sell advice?
If so, you need to be an expert. You also need to convince your audience that you're an expert too.
But by now you know that you are competing in a crowded space. It seems like everyone is an expert.
How many times has a social media expert told you that in order to succeed online, you have to be "everywhere?" Probably more than once or twice.
It used to be that a good marketing professional just needed to know how to work a powerpoint presentation and a whiteboard. That's no longer the case. The new breed of successful content marketers must be comfortable with an evolving set of roles that have only recently become essential for executing marketing plans. We'll discuss these 7 roles and what you need to do to master them.
Can't you get everything you need to know about content marketing by running a few Google searches and save some cash in the process?
I want to convince you that reading a few random articles online isn't the same as focused, deliberate education.
This Fired Up Friday has an important message about success from the brilliant Steve Harvey. Is building your business harder than you thought it would be…?

Have you ever wondered if you were doing all you could to get more readers from Google?

Have you ever read something that instantly grabs and holds your attention?
In these cases, it seems that the author has a special key to stoking your curiosity. Their stuff is addicting.
Tell me something…
Do you struggle with publishing a weekly blog post?
How about recording new blog post ideas that pop into your mind throughout the day?
Yes on both counts for me.
I've heard profound book ideas that died without a word written.
I've watched incredible business ideas die without a single product or service created.
I kid you not, I've built blogs for people who let them wither away without creating a single blog post.
I just had a great conversation with a fellow reader about their blog. In 30 minutes we zeroed in on some easy changes that would immediately put her blog on the right path.
I had such a good time on the call that I asked -
"How can I help more readers with their blog?"
How do you offer a thought that defines the conversation for an entire industry?
I had a blast talking with Guy Kawasaki about the secret to success, his fascinating book – APE, and his source of inspiration.
This was the first podcast where my guest lured me off my prepared script and took me on a crazy ride to a much better topic!

Look at your business goals. How are you doing?
This video is about – the space between: success and failure, confidence and insecurity, scarcity and abundance. Get this…the distance can be bridged with a minor shift in your mindset, no fancy tools, books, courses, or sherpa's required. Watch and act.
Do you keep a to-do list?
Take a look at it. Count how many projects that you've started but haven't finished.
Do you have projects stuck in the "not quite finished" phase?
Are you frustrated with your blog's performance?
Then you've probably scoured Google looking for simple ways to get your blog back on track. I've been there. I started two blogs that failed and have had to revive Pushing Social many times. The good news is that the common blogging problems can be grouped into 4 areas: 1. No readers, No Subscribers, No Comments / engagement, and no sales. For each of these areas, I'll share a prescription that will put your sick blog on the path to recovery.
It's Fired Up Friday again, time to get excited about the business you're building.
Success isn't for quitters. Everyone has days that test their patience and we all encounter obstacles along the way. Some days the stress really gets to you and you start to wonder if it's even worth all the effort. Before you throw in the towel, watch this video.
Just a short note today.
I have a confession. I'm looking for a content marketing silver bullet. I've found some great blog growth hacks and other marketing tactics that work extremely well in certain situations but none are guaranteed winners.
Feeling guilty?
Did you fail to publish a post last week?
Are you beating yourself up because that ebook, podcast, or product didn't get launched?
I've been following Denise Wakeman for a while and I've always found her business blogging advice very helpful. We were able to get her on the PS Podcast to discuss her online visibility strategies.
It's Fired Up Friday again and today's post is a message specifically for the ladies in our audience.
I find it troubling that most women seem uncomfortable asserting their expertise, experience and talent. I think it's time for women to stop feeling guilty for being assertive. How many of the situations in this video from Pantene can you relate to? How often do you apologize when you shouldn't?
We all hate "selling" but it's a necessary part of building and growing a business and promoting it with a blog.
By Stan Smith
In this episode of the Pushing Social Podcast I'll give you 3 ways to beat burnout and revitalize your creative energy.
It can be tempting to stop pushing forward once we are "good enough" to get the job done. We have all been guilty of this before.
If you're settling for mediocrity, what holds you back from greatness? Ask yourself why being average has become acceptable and answer yourself honestly.
Email autoresponders aren't sexy.
They are even a bit taboo for some social media purists who believe that marketers should spurn marketing in favor of every interaction being handled by a human.

EPA's Fifth Annual Energy Star Battle of the Buildings: Over 5,500 buildings to compete
Saving energy and reducing greenhouse gas emissions aren't just good economic sense, they're the new norm. Don't believe it? Check out the EPA's latest program leveraging competition between buildings to cut emissions and shrink energy footprints:
WASHINGTON – Today, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) launched the 2014 Energy Star Battle of the Buildings: Team Challenge. More than 5,500 buildings nationwide are going head-to-head to reduce their energy use. In support of President Obama's Climate Action Plan, which calls for businesses to cut in half the amount of energy they waste over the next 20 years, the competition specifically targets wasted energy in commercial buildings, and will motivate businesses to improve energy efficiency, reduce harmful carbon pollution, and save money.
"The competitive spirit is alive and well among the building teams working to improve their energy efficiency in this year's Battle of the Buildings," said EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy. "After four successful years, we're excited to see the innovative ideas that will emerge from the competitors as they find new ways to save energy and money while reducing greenhouse gas emissions and protecting the environment."
In the only coast-to-coast competition of its kind, dozens of different types of commercial buildings are facing off in this year's Energy Star Battle of the Buildings. This year's theme, "Team Challenge," features teams of five or more buildings who will work together to reduce their collective energy use as much as possible over the course of a year. For example, "Team Staples" includes 17 Staples stores, while 15 Whole Foods stores will support each other as part of "Team Whole Foods Market." In New Castle County, Del., 13 elementary schools will compete as part of a team, and they're going up against their county's five middle schools and six high schools. In Hillsborough County, Fla., fire stations will team up to compete against libraries.
This year marks the fifth year that EPA has hosted the Battle of the Buildings. The competition—and positive environmental impacts—have grown exponentially since that time. Altogether, last year's competitors saved an estimated $20 million on utility bills. Nearly 50 buildings in the competition demonstrated energy use reductions of 20 percent or greater.
Commercial buildings in the United States spend more than $100 billion in annual utility bills and are responsible for approximately 20 percent of both the nation's energy use and greenhouse gas emissions. By improving the energy efficiency of the places they work, play, and learn, the competitors will save energy and reduce harmful greenhouse gas emissions that contribute to climate change.
Competitors will measure and track their buildings' monthly energy consumption using EPA's online energy measurement and tracking tool, Energy Star Portfolio Manager. Building teams will work to optimize or upgrade equipment, retrofit lighting, and change occupants' behaviors—all with help from Energy Star. The team that reduces its buildings' average energy use the most, on a percentage basis over a 12-month performance period, will be declared the winner. In addition to the team competition, 700 individual buildings are also competing in a special water reduction category, and will work with EPA's WaterSense program to apply best practices for commercial building water management.
EPA will maintain a website devoted to the competition, featuring a list of the competitors and their starting, midpoint, and final standings, a live Twitter feed where competitors will post updates on their progress and an interactive map of the competitor's locations. Midpoint results will be posted in October, with the winner announced in April 2015.
Products, homes and buildings that earn the Energy Star label prevent greenhouse gas emissions by meeting strict energy efficiency requirements set by the U.S. EPA. From the first Energy Star qualified computer in 1992, the label can now be found on products in more than 70 different categories, with more than 4.8 billion sold. Over 1.5 million new homes and 23,000 buildings have earned the Energy Star label.

Rattling Retail: Mobile E-Commerce Posts Eye-Popping Recent Gains
The brick-and-mortar retail universe of ten years ago is gone and won't be coming back. The intercession of the internet has rewritten the retail equation and disrupted a great many decades-old practices in fulfilling customer need under a roof. While it may not be news that parking, malls and traditional retail are finding more selective appeal, what is news is that the rate of change is increasing and mobile-enabled shoppers are accelerating the trend.
How fast? The Custora E-Commerce Pulse Report published this month puts some genuinely shocking numbers together. While retail is only a part of e-commerce as a whole, the mobile e-commerce growth in the past four years has made the previous growth patterns in e-tailing look tame by comparison.

According to the new Custora E-Commerce Pulse Mobile Report, in the past four years the percentage of traffic to e-commerce sites from mobile devices (phones and tablets) jumped from 3 percent to nearly 37 percent, while US mobile e-commerce sales grew from $2 billion in 2010 to $43 billion in 2013.
The Custora E-Commerce Pulse Mobile Report analyzed data from more than 100 retailers, 70 million consumers and $10B in transaction revenue to gain a deeper level of understanding as to which mobile e-commerce trends marketers should pay the closest attention to.
Highlights of the report include:
- US mobile e-commerce is a $40 billion market, poised to hit $50 billion in 2014. In the past four years, the mobile e-commerce market grew nineteenfold: From $2.2 billion in 2010 to $42.8 billion in 2013. This represents 1875 percent growth over four years, and 111 percent four-year CAGR. 2014 is off to a strong start with $12.2 billion in mobile e-commerce sales in Q1 alone; it's likely that mobile e-commerce will hit $50 billion in 2014.
- Email marketing drives mobile purchases; social media not so much. Email marketing drove 27 percent of sales on mobile phones, compared to only 21 percent on desktop, and 23 percent on tablet. This is a surprising data point considering the challenges of displaying email correctly on mobile devices, and deep-linking into mobile apps. Social media accounted for only 0.6 percent of sales on phones and 0.2 percent on tablets.
- Cross-device shoppers are a small but highly valuable customer segment. As of Q1 2014, just 12 percent of online shoppers make purchases on more than one device type, however this represents significant growth from only 4 percent in 2012. This customer segment is also 19 percent more valuable, in terms of customer lifetime value, than the average single-device shopper.
When markets change, we get in front of those changes or we risk disaster. The rise in e-commerce always suggests that data center and logistics property plays become more attractive. But when a rise looks this steep – a twelvefold increase in mere years – I think we can replace "suggests" with "screams".

Demand For Airport Real Estate Takes Off
A recent acquisition by a Chicago RE investment firm of Austin, TX airport industrial buildings shows one way to play the US infrastructure slowdown.
Relative to other countries where airport capacity continues to expand, including Canada, Singapore and Germany, US airport property expansion is flat. A The 2014 report by British consulting firm Skytrax indicates the ten best airports in the world are all located outside the United States. Reports like this tend to underscore what we can see with our own (red) eyes as we drag our luggage through our nation's airports: outdated, dingy terminals, wretched parking and insufficient access.
The scarcity of new airports has attracted an interesting investment strategy: buying logistics buildings in these airports is a classic example of money following a tight supply. That's the thinking behind Origin Capital Partners recent snapping up of five industrial properties in Austin's Bergstrom International Airport. WSJ's Barbara Dellolis writes:
Bryan Sullivan, a director of acquisitions at Origin, said the company ventured into the airport space because it sees limited competition, rising demand and constrained supply. The buildings have direct access to the tarmac at a time when the airport's cargo shipments have been steadily growing due to rising e-commerce and international shipping.
The Origin deal highlights the value investors are placing on airport real estate.
"The investors are playing where they're not making that much product anymore," said Tom Kirschbraun, international director with JLL's Capital Markets. "If they're buying property on an airport, there's going to be appreciation of consequence in controlling that kind of real estate."
Industrial-property rents rise in proportion to airport proximity, Mr. Kirschbraun said. At Chicago O'Hare airport, for instance, "there's a 30% increase in rent [for buildings] immediately around the airport," he said.
Most airports are owned by municipal governments, which rent out gates and hangars to airlines, and storefront space inside to retailers, restaurant operators and other concessionaires. On the edges of the airport property, many airports also lease the grounds to private companies, which develop warehouse buildings to rent to airlines and cargo-logistics and handling companies. After the ground lease expires, the property reverts back to the airport.
Acquiring airport industrial property can let you ride the tail of the e-commerce rocket in a whole new way. Something to consider while you're stuck on the taxiway. Again.

CBECS: Major Survey Of Energy Profiles Of Commercial Buildings
First Wave of the 2012 Commercial Building Energy Consumption Survey (CBECS) Released
The first sets of data from the 2012 Commercial Building Energy Consumption Survey (CBECS) were released last week in Washington, DC. The data, which is one of several sets to be released by the US Energy Information Administration (EIA) over the next several months, provides important insights into the national commercial buildings profile and energy use.
The CBECS takes four years to complete from start to finish and the data is referred to by the year of the survey initiation.
What Is The CBRECS?
The CBECS is a national sample survey that collects information on the stock of U.S. commercial buildings, including their energy-related building characteristics and energy usage data (consumption and expenditures). Commercial buildings include all buildings in which at least half of the floorspace is used for a purpose that is not residential, industrial, or agricultural. By this definition, CBECS includes building types that might not traditionally be considered commercial, such as schools, hospitals, correctional institutions, and buildings used for religious worship, in addition to traditional commercial buildings such as stores, restaurants, warehouses, and office buildings.
This initial data set identified more than 100 unique subcategories of building types within the commercial sector, comprising 87.4 billion square feet of floorspace. Buildings used for lodging were shown to be the largest building type measured in square footage. Half of all building types increased in number from 2003 to 2012. The last CBECS was completed in 2003.
Please visit the CBECS web site to learn more about the survey and the data available.

P3: Federal Property and Public/Private Partnerships
A few days ago, Stephanie Spear, NAR's Policy Representative for Commercial Real Estate attended the 3rd Annual Washington DC Federal Property & Public/Private Partnerships Summit put on by Bisnow. As Stephanie was kind enough to share her notes, a quick report follows on the three sessions, each dedicated to a different aspect of public/private partnerships.
Take it away, Stephanie:
GSA is undergoing a cultural shift in terms of how they approach space and how space is used. This is a result of the Total New Workplace initiative and the executive order to Freeze the Footprint. There are enough large sized, high profile P3 projects that have been successful that it is reasonable to expect more P3 opportunities in the future.
Bottom line for commercial members is that while government funding isn't increasing, it's staying steady and there are many opportunities to do business with the government through traditional landlord/tenant relationships and the emerging P3 arrangements. Building owners/lessors who can accommodate the changing needs of the modern workforce will have a better chance of a successful working relationship with the GSA.
Session Notes
Panel 1: GSA Operations Now And The Future, featuring the Commissioner of the GSA Public Buildings Service and the director of the GSA's National Capital Region office.
- Freeze the federal footprint – is happening but is creating more opportunities for private industry partners (landlords, building owners) because agencies have to be more creative with how they use space
- Market is more competitive because agencies are signing shorter leases so there is more churning going on
- GSA wants to have agencies be more forward-thinking about the end of their leases and work with landlords to think about it well in advance, work with landlords to get new needs met, concessions, manage the progress from upstream
- Increased emphasis on reducing the number of lease holdovers being held by GSA
- Agencies are being responsive to funding challenges and cooperating with shrinking footprint efforts because they understand that it frees up more money for running the actual program
- "Total New Workplace" – GSA encouragement of new building designs for a remote workforce, hoteling spaces and cooperative work spaces
- GSA personnel, telework, technology, IT priorities all go into the shrinking footprint and what exactly the remainders look like
- GSA transparency goals
- Making a lot of use of Section 14/412 construction/swap authority to be creative about using space, rebuilding, etc
- Many success stories of P3 projects – The Yards, Old Post Office, St Elizabeth's – hope to be a model because private industry partners are where the money is – govt doesn't have, won't have access to huge cash needed to do these big deals
- GSA surplus property
- Trying to be more mindful of using govt resources, part of a larger data-driven effort to be more efficient
- Property Disposal Unit – 669% increase in properties sold in FY2013 over Fy2012
Panel 2: Talked about a P3 project in DC – was very interesting but hyper-local to DC
Panel 3: Perspectives on Leasing with GSA
- Cultural shifts from GSA are having an impact on the way agencies use space – 'total new workplace' goals are main culprit
- Skepticism about whether this new style of work will stick around, we have seen it come and go in private sector
- Competition for contracts has focused on price only instead of best value
- Structural requirements in procurements are challenging to accommodate in leases
- Avoiding holdover leases
- Working with tenants in advance of the lease termination to avoid vacancies
- Shorter leases will favor new buildings because old buildings can't be prepared fast enough to accommodate tenants' needs

The GSA's AAAP Program Makes Leasing To Uncle Sam Easy
Commercial real estate professionals should hear that leasing to the federal government just got a lot easier.
The General Services Administration's mission is to manage and support the space requirements and other basic functions of the "alphabet soup" of federal government agencies. Of course that includes lots of Washington, DC real estate, but a recent expansion of a technology-supported property and space acquisition program has added Los Angeles, Seattle, Boston, Philadelphia, Denver and Dallas to the
It's a savings to taxpayers to streamline the leasing process, and that's what GSA has undertaken with its expanded Automated Advanced Acquisition Program (AAAP) program. As the GSA says, AAAP will
[...] [make] it easier than ever before for realtors, brokers, lessors, property managers, building owners and developers to electronically offer building space for lease to the federal government. The goal is to drive savings to taxpayers by improving federal leasing efficiency in the real estate market. GSA's Automated Advanced Acquisition Program (AAAP), which originally launched in 1991 in the Washington, D.C. area, is now available in LA, Seattle, Boston, Philadelphia, Denver, and Dallas.
Here's How It Works
Registered commercial real estate participants can submit and update offers to lease space to the federal government within specified time frames, in response to a GSA Request for Lease Proposal. The submission process is web-based, which as you can guess leads to
- a more efficient lease process
- cheaper acquisition of real property lease assets
- improved agency satisfaction
Keep in mind, AAAP is one of several procurement platforms GSA currently uses to lease office space in Washington, D.C., Atlanta, Chicago, New York, and Kansas City.

This year, THR can reveal that Kress' company employs as many as 19 people who generate as much as $2.5 million in sales annually, according to Business.com and that Kress' clients allegedly include David Schwimmer, Ben Affleck and Denzel Washington — though Kress would not confirm or deny any of that, of course.

Net Metering and Who Pays What at Issue
Industry and their customers will certainly be grappling with this issue of net-metering for a while. It is clear that the grid won't vanish and, in fact, it will likely expand.

According to a recent US Department of Homeland Security report, in fiscal year 2012, ICS-CERT received and responded to 198 cyber incidents as reported by asset owners and industry partners. Attacks against the energy sector represented 41 % of the total number of incidents. While none of these attempted cyber-attacks on utilities were successful, many experts have said it is not a question of if, but when.
The energy industry is being reshaped by a confluence of changing consumer preferences, advancing technologies, and shifting regulatory policies. This 'new normal' offers both uncertainty and opportunities. And regardless of the regulatory environment, new market entrants are engaging consumers with innovative value propositions and staking their claim to parts of the energy value chain that increasingly extends into homes and businesses.
