Judging from interviews with merchants in Alexandria and Mount Vernon District, "Black Friday 2007" proved to be just that -- a day, and weekend, when red ink took a holiday.
Contrary to the pre-holiday shopper jitters, both small specialty shops and big box merchants were pleasantly surprised.
In the big box category, sales at the Wal-Mart on Richmond highway "were higher than last year," according to assistant manager Tamara Hightower. "We were crowded throughout the weekend," she said.
"Like every year, electronics were big sellers. But, I also think that sales were up because we added items that we haven't offered before. Overall we have a much better selection this year," Hightower said on Monday.
Wal-Mart was one of those offering very early bird specials. They were open from 5 a.m. to 11 p.m. Friday. Saturday and Sunday a little more "normal"— 7 a.m. to 11 p.m.
Unfortunately, local Target management was not able to talk about their Black Friday weekend results. Managers at both their Richmond Highway and Potomac Yard stores were not even willing to say if it had been a good, mediocre or poor weekend for fear of bringing down the wrath of corporate upon themselves.
"I can not make any statements without the specific approval of corporate headquarters," said managers at both stores. When corporate media relations was called, only a message could be left for a call back — with no promise that one would arrive any time soon.
Maybe they missed the target.
That was not true for the vast majority of individual specialty stores in Alexandria and Mount Vernon District. All but one said that this year's Black Friday sales matched or exceeded those of 2006.
"As happens every year, it was slow Friday morning and then picked up considerably in the afternoon once people got tired of the mall crunch and finished their bargain rush," said Dorothy Trimber, owner of The Blossom Shop in Hollin Hall Shopping Center.
"For us, this particular weekend is mainly about shoppers finding unusual tree ornaments. They want something different for their tree and we have five fully decorated trees in the shop in five themes," she said.
That pleasant surprise with this year's customer turnout was echoed by two other Hollin Hall Shopping Center merchants: Doug Bentley of "The Gift Shop" and Charles "Ben" Vennell, owner of Hollin Hall Variety Store.
"Sales were a little up from this weekend last year. However, we are waiting to see what the follow through will be for the rest of the holiday season. In fact, will there be a follow through?" said Bentley.
For Vennell, "Friday was great and then Saturday it was a little flat. But Sunday we had a very good day. It was somewhat ahead of last year. The slow point I attribute to those discount sales and long store hours at the big retailers," he said.
OLD TOWN Alexandria merchants get the benefit of a two-weekend holiday opener this year. With the annual Scottish Walk this weekend, merchants are looking forward to a second good retail weekend in a row.
"Scottish Walk weekend always proves better for us than Black Friday weekend. Although this year Black Friday was pretty good. It held its own with last year," said Kate Schlabach, owner of Why Not, 200 King St.
"The one thing that was different this year was that I had customers who wanted toys that had not been made in China. That wasn't a problem for me because we carry quite a few made in Germany, Switzerland and other places," she said.
"We did very well this year. We sold lots of calendars and Christmas cards," said Todd Healy, owner of Gallery Lafayette, located at the rear of Gadsby's Arcade, immediately across King Street from City Hall/Market Square.
Those sentiments were echoed by Stanley E. Rudy, owner of Wilfred-Rodgers, 320 King St. "It went very well this year. A little better than last year. And, the shoppers seemed to want to buy a little bit of everything," he said.
Betsey Husser at the Christmas Attic, 125 S. Union St., said, "We did very well. Much better than last year. We were packed all weekend and they were buying everything. Now it's a matter of getting restocked for Scottish Walk."
The only one to report a small drop in sales was Julia Mosley, director of retail for The Shops at Mount Vernon. However, she
attributed that to the fact that last year traffic was unnaturally high as people flocked to Mount Vernon during the holidays to visit the newly opened museum and education center.
"We were actually expecting a little dip this year due to the crowd leveling off for the new additions. But, it was still way up over two years ago. We were crowded all weekend and they were buying a wide variety of items. This year's collector ornament is selling like crazy," Mosley said.
THESE LOCAL reactions were in line with national shopper statistics but seemed to contradict sales figures. Although shoppers were up an estimated 4.8 percent over last year, the actual Black Friday weekend sales figures were down 3.5 percent with the average shopper parting with just over $347, according to the National Retail Federation.
Another big factor, which has been increasing each year, is shopping online. It doesn't require getting to the store the day before in order to be first for a 4 a.m. opening — no playing parking lot chicken for an open space, and no in-store crush with millions of your closest and dearest friends.
The Monday after Black Friday weekend has become known as "Cyber Monday." It is also becoming a double-edged sword for large retailers and their employees. However, it does not seem to have adversely impacted the small specialty shops.
While three dimensional shoppers' spending increased an estimated 8.3 percent this year, cyber shopper sales jumps 22 percent on Friday following a whopping increase of 29 percent on Thursday. For the two days cyber shoppers parted with more than $800 million nationwide.
But all this is just a prelude to the holiday shopping season. From now until the reindeers roll will be the real test. As Doug Bentley of The Gift Store so succinctly put it: "Will there be a follow-through?"

£100 million partnership to upgrade antarctic research facilities
The investment will enable British scientists to remain at the forefront of science and research.
The British Antarctic Survey has announced a £100 million deal to upgrade the Rothera Research Station, ensuring the UK remains a world leader in science and polar-based innovation.
The new facility will become home to the RRS Sir David Attenborough that will transform UK polar research enabling more ambitious expeditions to untapped areas of the Antarctic and the Arctic.
The investment will enable British scientists to remain at the forefront of science and research, helping to improve our understanding of the world we live in and the impact of climate change.
Universities and Science Minister Jo Johnson said:
"Key to the long-term success of science and innovation in the UK is ensuring our world-class research sector has the tools it needs to thrive on a global stage.
"The government's £200m investment on specialist research ships including RRS Sir David Attenborough underlines our commitment to this burgeoning sector and our upcoming industrial strategy will go even further, placing science and innovation at its absolute core."
The partnership was commissioned by the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) whose CEO Professor Duncan Wingham said:
"The Polar Regions, although geographically remote, are of equal importance in our drive to understand how the Earth is changing. NERC science in Antarctica plays an important role in meeting this challenge.
"Working with BAM and design partner SWECO, on this long term approach to modernising our infrastructure in the Antarctic, we will jointly foster and further build the UK's high level of expertise, experience and good practices for working in challenging design and construction environments."
The UK Government is also supporting the Polar Explorer Programme - a £1m educational programme that aims to inspire the next generation of scientists, engineers and citizens by engaging young people with the RRS Sir David Attenborough and the science it will support. The Programme aims to raise scientific awareness and literacy in young people and will include resources based on the missions of the state-of-the-art robotic subsea vehicle named Boaty McBoatface.
The UK's world-class research and science sector is a priority for the Government, and will play a key role as part of our upcoming industrial strategy. An extra £2 billion per year for research and innovation will be invested by 2020/21 supporting the sector and helping to boost the UK economy.

Haiti is a country of great social and economic potential. Many of Haiti's hardworking and industrious citizens are eager to join the global economy. But the reality for most Haitians today is that only about a quarter of its 10 million inhabitants have access to formal education and a steady income. The other 75 percent are mired in poverty, struggling to survive.
These circumstances make them vulnerable to poor health and nutrition, social and economic exploitation, corruption and violence, failing infrastructure, deforestation, and other forms of eanvironmental destruction which, in turn, make the country even more susceptible to the devastating impacts of annual natural disasters.
Furthermore, instead of feeding itself and the world from fertile Caribbean soils, Haiti imports 70 percent of its basic food staples, leaving it heavily dependent on foreign aid and perpetuating the unfortunate title of "poorest nation in the Western Hemisphere."
Haiti is so much more than that. Its people have always been proud, innovative and fiercely resilient. In fact, those attributes won them independence in 1804 during a successful slave revolt against their French colonizers. That revolution made Haiti the world's first independent black republic.
But challenging the colonial world order came with dire consequences that still impact Haiti's development today. In 1825, under the threat of invading Haiti again, the French colonial powers forced Haiti to pay a "restitution" to the former slave owners' it had overthrown. Given the implications that Haitian independence could have on other countries and colonies developing on slave labor, nations such as the United States sided with France, and together they declared an embargo on the newly independent Haiti that lasted 50 years and cost Haiti the equivalent of $21 billion in today's dollars. Paying this egregious "debt," and facing the embargo, depleted Haiti's economy and stunted its growth.
By the turn of the last century, Haiti had become so unstable that it was changing presidents nearly every year. Fearing regional instability could lead to an advancement of German imperialism, the United States invaded Haiti in 1915 and occupied it until 1934. This further undermined its development and pressured the country into more international loans for development – or mere survival.
Since the early eighties, the United States has forced Haiti to lower its import tariffs on food enabling US rice companies, which benefit from subsidies, to take over the Haitian market. This killed the country's entire rice production, a staple of Haitians' diet, creating irreparable income losses for the poorest Haitian farmers and contributing to hunger and malnutrition.
Foreign interventions of this nature have persisted for decades, making it nearly impossible for Haiti to sustain itself without some form of humanitarian aid. One of the latest examples took place in the 1990s after the overthrow of democratically elected President Jean-Bertrand Aristide. The U.S. government wanted to punish coup leaders with an embargo, but the Haitian people were the ones who most suffered.
These nefarious international interventions, as well as domestic corruption scandals, poor governance and rural underdevelopment have all led to the country's disastrous economic and social development.
Following the immense devastation of the 2010 earthquake, some big multilateral donors sought to make amends by turning old loans into grants. This may be a step in the right direction, but undoing the deeply entrenched problems created by misguided internal and external policies and actions require drastically different development approaches. For one, they must benefit Haitians from all socio-economic levels and promote their well-being and agency. They must emphasize the growth of the middle class, and a robust rural development through a true decentralization of economic hubs and investments.
Furthermore, that process should also remind the world of Haiti's tremendous assets: its hospitality, delicious cuisine, many beautiful mountains, beaches, waterfalls, and historical monuments, as well as a rich artistic and cultural life. These features coupled with a vigorous and comprehensive program for improving the country's security, infrastructure, governance, agricultural production and technological advances can spur high economic growth.
In fact, there are already some highly successful foreign and Haitian companies working in Haiti: MSC, a massive size hardware, tools, construction and renovation material business; Giant, a chain of high-end supermarkets and home supplies stores; Digicel, a national mobile telecommunications network, part of the pan-Caribbean Digicel Group; Telecom, a public / private partnership between the Haitian government and Viettel, a Vietnamese company; and the rum Barbencourt, one of the best there is. Last but not least, Haiti is the world's number one exporter of vetiver essential oil, prized by the high-end perfume industry.
Given Haiti's current needs, we chose to support rural development to increase the country's food production and security. We do so by promoting the establishment of agricultural cooperatives which is one of the most effective ways to strengthen small-scale subsistence farming families living in absolute poverty. They are the heart and soul of Haiti's agricultural sector – a sector which represents 25% of the country's GDP.
Our pilot program is in the Commune of Ganthier where we train farmers in building their own cooperative to increase their capacity, expand their markets and become stronger and more autonomous as individuals and as a community.

LEE CLARK is backing the squad he assembled at Huddersfield Town to win promotion this season and just wishes he was still in charge to finish the job.
The 39-year-old Geordie fiercely disputes chairman Dean Hoyle's opinion that he wouldn't have guided Town into the Championship, either automatically or through the play-offs.
And he says he'll celebrate as wildly as the most ardent Town fanatic WHEN they go up on either May 5 after Yeovil or May 26 at Wembley. Interviewed by Richard Keys on talkSPORT, Clark said: "I received a call from the owner the morning after the game against Sheffield United and it was just to the point, really.
"He said he didn't believe I could deliver promotion and has subsequently been in the media to say that, which is something I dispute – and my view has been backed up by the new management team since they've been there."
Asked about the record of only three defeats in 55, Clark added: "I think it's been thrown back there have been a lot of draws in there, which could be possibly right, but if you can't win a game, make sure you don't lose it.
"We always went out to win every football match, the players will say that. We created numerous chances and, certainly, on the evening before I got the sack, if you read Danny Wilson's quotes we played fantastically well and had our usual (at home) 23 or 24 attempts at goal and it just wasn't to be that evening.
Clark – who wants to get back into the game as quickly as possible – said he had texted the chairman to say he had made a good appointment in Simon Grayson and he hoped they got promotion.
Other than that, there had been no contact and he hoped Town would resolve remaining issues over the departure as quickly as possible for him, assistant Terry McDermott, coach Paul Stephenson and development coach Steve Watson.
I would like it sorted out in the right and proper manner," said Clark, who guided Town to two successive play-off campaigns and a Football League record of 43 matches without defeat.
"I worked extremely hard for the football club and moved it forward huge strides. We always talked about our relationship, myself and the owner, and it's not just me (involved), there are three other great lads in Terry, Paul and Steve and their families to consider here.
"Huddersfield have moved on with a new management team and I just want things done in the right and proper way and let us move on in our careers."
What did the owner say about the chase for promotion?
"He became worried we couldn't deliver getting back in the top two, but if you see the results Charlton have drawn their last two so it's still very 'do-able' and there's a big Sheffield derby this weekend, so points will be dropped there," answered Clark.
"He has said maybe we couldn't handle the pressure if it came to a play-off final. We lost the last one, but that was very close until they (Peterborough) got their first goal, and we've handled huge games over the course of my period there, so I've got to disagree with that – and this has been backed up by what has been said by Simon Grayson and his staff.
"They are unbelievably positive they know the quality of the squad, the group and the set-up – the whole infrastructure of the club.
"I tried to fight my corner, but the phone call didn't last longer than two minutes and it went along the lines of 'I'm letting you go and re-booting the management team.'
"I said I thought he was making a mistake because we had played very, very well (against Sheffield United). He said he knew I would be disappointed and heard what I was saying, but that was basically the whole conversation and it went from there."
Clark said he received tremendous financial support in building the squad.
"I had fantastic backing, fantastic," he said. "In terms of budgets, the club are where they are along with Charlton and the two Sheffield clubs.
"The backing I got from the owner was brilliant, we had a fantastic relationship and I don't want that to change, I never have done because, ultimately, we were on course to deliver what he wanted."
Next he was asked if Town will go up this season?
"Without a shadow of a doubt," was the emphatic answer from the former top-flight midfielder.
"That's 100%. Simon knows that, everybody knows that, because they've got a fantastic group of players, the squad is brilliant and, individually, they are terrific. They will go up, hopefully in the top two after Yeovil on May 5 and I'll raise a glass of champagne. If not, then May 26 in the play-off final at Wembley and I'll do exactly the same because I've got lots of friends at the club.
"The supporters were magnificent to me, the players were great to me, the office staff and the owner and I want them to do it because they took me and my family into their hearts and I want them to achieve their goal."
Clark said it should have been a compliment he was being linked with other clubs and he wouldn't like to think that had any part in the decision to remove him from the job – because if he'd been doing a poor job no-one would have been interested.
So what's next for a man who is totally steeped in football?
"I'm going to be a manager again a.s.a.p" he said.
"I'm ready to go, I'm 39 years of age and I've got so much energy and so much enthusiasm.
"I will wait for the right opportunity to come around and, while I'm waiting, I will go out and further my management education and my coaching education.
"I'll go to clubs home and abroad and watch different managers and different coaches and see how they work and how they prepare.
"I will keep on learning, but hopefully it won't be too long (before I'm back in a job) because this last week I've been a right pain in the neck to my wife!"
Keys then asked if Clark would do anything differently or change anything?
"To still be there, it's as simple as that," he replied.
"I love the place. Every day when I got in my car to go to training I looked forward to the job and to the day ahead and, when I gave the lads a day off, I was bored and wanted to be back in among them.
"It was the same when I had my summer holiday, which I needed, I wanted to get back in and we still had a few weeks to go, so I have got nothing but great things to say about that football club
"They gave me a chance, I had a great relationship with the owner and that's why I don't want it to end in the way it has in terms of some of the things that have been said.
"There will be nobody more happy than me on May 5 or May 26 if Huddersfield Town are promoted. Not if, when they are promoted."

A reception for the winners will be held in November. The School Board also bought security cameras and OK'd an eighth-grade trip to Washington, D.C.
Volusia County Teacher of the Year nominees for 2014 have been selected from each of the 70 schools in the district, and Superintendent Margaret Smith announced Tuesday, Oct. 9, that a reception to honor each will be held 4:30 Thursday, Nov. 1, at Champion Elementary, in Daytona Beach.
A final winner will be announced in January. The current teacher of the year is Leslie Birney, a fourth-grade instructor in DeLand.
In Ormond Beach, some of the teachers nominated for the county prize are Kenneth O'Brien, of Pine Trail Elementary School, and Robert Campbell, of Ormond Beach Middle School. A more extensive sampling of the 70 teachers chosen from Volusia County schools are listed below.
A dedication ceremony for Ormond Beach Middle School will also be held 9:30 a.m. Wednesday, Oct. 24.
A 'capitol' idea
The Volusia County School Board unanimously approved an Ormond Beach Middle School field trip Tuesday, to Washington, D.C.
The trip is for 100 students and 10 chaperons, by bus, and will cost families $833 per student to attend. The trip has no fiscal impact on the district, however, but if any students' families cannot afford the outing, scholarships will be offered, or substitute teachers will be hired.
The trip will take place March 16-21.
The camera eye
The School Board also unanimously approved a $47,837.49 purchase of security cameras to install in its data center.
Purchased through Security 101, of Altamonte Springs, installation of the cameras will improve infrastructure, while satisfying audit deficiencies from 2011, according to a district report.
The purchase was budgeted in the board's 2012 capital fund.
The Teachers
A sampling of teachers selected as nominees for the 2014 Volusia County Teacher of the Year are listed as follows:

My 100th post stirred up some emotions. Thanks for the feedback, good and derisory. Appreciated.
Apparently we aren't the only ones being affected by the tsunami of Chinese money pouring into our real estate markets.
Just Google something like Chinese Buyers and Vancouver to see what comes up. There's a real problem there too.
I'll leave you to do your own research.
I wonder what other markets are being similarly invaded?

At Bagram, War's Tragedy Yields Medical Advances
At Bagram, War's Tragedy Yields Medical Advances
The medevac choppers land and then taxi over to the gate just outside the emergency room, where gurneys are waiting. Nightfall has brought a bone-chilling wind, and a gang of nurses and orderlies rushes four patients into the warmth of the ER.
It's more than warm inside. In fact it's 100 degrees. It's the first clue that this hospital -- the Joint Theater Hospital at Afghanistan's Bagram Air Field -- is a little different. Through years of war, combat surgeons have learned that hypothermia is a big risk in patients with significant blood loss. Nine years of conflict in Iraq and Afghanistan have brought some grim benefits: a new wealth of knowledge about treating war wounds.
"At the beginning of this conflict, we were taking the best trauma medicine from the civilian sector, and we brought it to Iraq and Afghanistan," says U.S. Air Force Col. Chris Benjamin, the hospital commander. He says now his doctors tell him it's the other way around.
"Here we are seven, eight years later, taking what we've learned in these conflicts to teach them the advances that we've made with this data collection here in theater," he says.
The year 2010 saw more violence than ever in the nine-year-long war in Afghanistan. NATO deaths topped 700 this year, more than 500 of them Americans. Counting the limbs lost would yield a much higher number: Advances in body armor mean that soldiers are surviving huge roadside bomb explosions, but coming into the hospital missing one or both legs, and sometimes an arm as well. The vertical blasts from the bombs often cause terrible wounds to the genital area.
Most of the wounded pass through Bagram on their way from the field hospital to long-term care in Germany or the U.S. The volume of patients continues to yield new data that are helping to save lives in ways that were impossible only a few years ago.
Old Techniques Discovered Anew
Aggressive use of tourniquets, which have been used on the battlefield for hundreds of years, is helping to stop bleeding within moments of injury.
"The soldier out in the field that encounters an explosion or a gunshot wound, the most important part in his chain of survival from the explosion, until we can get him to Walter Reed [Army Medical Center in Washington, D.C.] probably is what his battle buddy does -- the guy in the next vehicle or the guy who was 50 meters away," says Benjamin.
Only a decade ago, tourniquets were a last resort, thought to carry serious risks of doing harm. But early during the Iraq War, soldiers began carrying their own tourniquets, and now all U.S. troops carry special tourniquets designed for use with one hand. The change reflects the chilling number of wounds that involve lost limbs.
"I could probably count on one hand how many double amputations I'd had to take care of or do [before]," says U.S. Air Force Lt. Col. Rachel Height, Bagram's head surgeon. Now, she says, they come in almost daily and in large clusters where a huge, deadly bomb has hit a foot patrol.
Height points to another old cure that has been discovered anew: whole blood. Over many decades, scientists found ways to break blood into its components -- white and red cells, platelets -- and store them each with a different shelf life.
But the carnage of U.S. battles in Iraq forced doctors to hold blood drives right on base, and they discovered that fresh, whole blood works wonders at resuscitation, says Height.
"It's pretty exciting to take care of people that literally died on the table at a down-range theater yesterday, come to us, and within a few hours, we can take his breathing tube out and they're talking to their family," she says.
In Vietnam, saline was used to keep blood pressure up, but that seeped into the respiratory system, causing a deadly ailment known as Danang Lung. Whole blood leaves the lungs healthier, which means patients can avoid a host of potential problems associated with ventilator machines and general anesthesia.
Closeness, And Distance, From Patients
Another new tool is letting patients stay awake, even during major operations.
"We use little tiny catheters put in next to nerves, and these guys with amputations don't have pain in those stumps," says U.S. Air Force Maj. Christa Riley, an anesthetist. "We can anesthetize a large nerve that serves the legs and make them comfortable for flight."
Flight is another important tactic at Bagram. Most of the wounded are on their way to a much larger hospital in Germany or the U.S. within a day or two of arriving here. That way, the doctors at Bagram can concentrate on the next batch of patients.
But that innovation means sometimes the doctors at Bagram never even get to talk with the patient whose life they're saving, says Riley.
"Just be able to tell them, I'd like to be able to tell them, 'Hey, you did well, you're strong and thank you,' " she says.
But it also spares the doctors at Bagram some of the more painful moments, she says. A colleague was taking care of a soldier who had just lost both legs, but was, unusually, awake and off the ventilator.
"One of our nurse anesthetists was there when the young man called his mother to tell her, and I think he broke down, he had to leave. Because he could hear this young man's mother crying and sort of falling apart on the other end of the phone," Riley says.
Challenges Of Treating Afghan Civilians
The hospital treats soldiers from all the NATO countries in theater, as well as Afghan soldiers, and quite often captured insurgents. The doctors say the detainees get the same care, though they're usually under armed guard. Afghan civilians also come to Bagram if they're recovered by U.S. medevac from a battlefield injury or if a local hospital refers them.
One such patient has been in Bagram for three weeks, 13-year-old Saber Jan. Her clothing ignited from a cooking stove, causing severe burns on nearly 50 percent of her body. The doctors have tried skin grafts without success and concluded that only a better facility will be able to save the girl's life. One of the doctors has contacted the Shriners Hospital in Cincinnati, which agreed to take the patient, but a few obstacles remain.
Saber was married a few months ago and her husband's brother is staying with her at the hospital. He says it would be much better for her to stay in Afghanistan, and he would need to ask the family's permission for her to go to America.
It's not clear he understands that Saber will probably die if she doesn't get better care -- even inside the hospital, she won't be able to resist infection much longer with half her skin gone. In fact, the doctors are surprised Saber has survived this far.
"She is fighting, and I think that's giving the doctors here some hope," says Riley. "Dr. Height said to me, 'I can't give up on her because she's not giving up.' And I think that's fair."
But red tape may be the greatest obstacle to saving the young girl's life. Saber needs a passport and a visa, or a special dispensation from the American or Afghan government -- a condition the doctors at Bagram haven't figured out how to cure yet.

The work landed four Golds and two Silvers in advertising, interactive and motion categories, and also garnered a Gold in Sound Design for New York's Duotone Audio Group.
The two-minute video, directed by Johnny Kelly of Nexus, was the food chain's first ever television spot and takes viewers through a farmer's journey, as he moves from industrialized large-scale farming methods to sustainable practices.

Programmers Are Frustrated by a Lack of Netflix Metrics
Dearth of viewership data 'runs counter' to industry standards
When Breaking Bad scored three Emmy wins last fall, its showrunner, Vince Gilligan, credited Netflix for his show's longevity and for heightening its popularity. Similarly, program execs in general have been thrilled with how streaming video services have made up for lost DVD revenue.
But a little bloom is off the rose. Frustration with Netflix has set in as programmers renegotiate contract renewals (to the tune of more than $7 billion, according to some estimates).
"The biggest concerns are about getting sufficient metrics about how their product is being consumed," said Bruce Lazarus, CEO of Media Audits International (MAI), which helps programmers validate the subscriber information they receive from distribution platforms. "When you want to sell your content to the platforms, what's the proper pricing model?"
"We get a little information about which of our products are being watched on Netflix, but we get no data about who exactly is watching our shows," noted John Kampfe, CFO of Turner Broadcasting System.
Netflix declined to speak with Adweek for this story.
"Oftentimes data is limited to stream starts and/or unique users, and neither provide meaningful insight into the value of a programmer's content," said Richard Taub, svp of broadcast and digital services at MAI. There's no standard definition of stream starts; it could mean someone merely hit "play" and watched for either two seconds or two hours.
The lack of data "runs counter to just about everything else in the industry," added Larry Gerbrandt, principal of the consultancy Media Valuation Partners. "Netflix could say, 'We'll renew, but now your content's older, and we want to pay you less.' But if the programmers had viewership data that would show that usage is going up, or [is] at least flat, that would counter that argument."
"The places we have to go to find [usage data for Netflix] are either private research companies that field panels, which you pay a lot of money to maintain, or we can do surveys. But surveys are notoriously unreliable," said one network executive. That person notes that some Netflix rivals, like Hulu (which is owned by programmers and therefore more transparent) and iTunes (which is a pay-to-play model) aren't as problematic.
The problem could eventually resolve itself. "Over the next five years I expect that advertising will be part of SVOD [subscription video on demand], and therefore we will have measurement ratings that will be visible to both sides, Netflix and the programmers," said Laura Martin, a senior analyst of entertainment, cable and media at Needham & Co. That's likely to happen at Netflix when subscriber growth hits a wall, Gerbrandt added.
In the meantime, Netflix isn't budging on the metrics front. "We talk to them about [the missing metrics] every time we talk about product," said Kampfe. "It usually comes down to, 'Are we willing to sell them the product for a particular price without getting the data?' And right now that seems to be the case."

Evan Longoria Blindfolded Himself With His Own Helmet (GIFs)
It's hard enough to hit a Major League fastball when you have full use of both your eyes. I can't even imagine what it would be like to stand at the plate and only be able to hear the ball wiz by you.
Tampa Bay Rays third baseman Evan Longoria knows what it's like, though. Last night against the Yankees, facing Phil Hughes in the top of the third, Longoria bumped the back of his batting helmet with the barrel of his bat, tipping the helmet forward so that the bill came down below his nose, leaving him completely blind. It took him only a split second to determine that the best course of action in that situation is to simply step out of the box, but by that time the ball had already popped in the mit of catcher Chris Stewart.
Want to see it? Well, here is angle one:
And here is angle two:
Sadly, that's probably the easiest first pitch strike Hughes got all night. The guy completed just two innings, giving up seven hits, a walk and three runs, and the Rays went on to win 8-3, officially knocking the Yankees out of the postseason hunt.

Hi Beauties
Maybelline has always been one of my favourite makeup brand. Affordable products & constant new launches are the two keys for this brand's popularity among beauty lovers. This brand has recently come up with a new lipstick range,called Color Sensational The Loaded Bolds. This collection consists of 10 lipsticks which are all deep & bold colors. Though summer is all about light and peppy colors,I couldn't control myself and picked one bold plum shade from the collection. The shade name is 'Berry Bossy'.
About The Product
Beyond bold,it's sensational. Maybelline's Color Sensational The Loaded Bolds is available in a range of pigment-loaded shades from deep plums and electric blues to vibrant reds and natural nudes.
Price : Rs. 550
Net Weight : 3.9 gm
To be frank, I got this shade 'Berry Bossy' from Walmart, US last month because I didn't know that it would be launching in India soon. It comes in a bold blue & silver tube packaging. The cover of the lipstick bullet is deep blue in color which I love so much. It is quite sturdy. It closes properly & does not come off easily. You can find the shade name on the bottom of the tube.
About The Shade
The shade I picked up is 'Berry Bossy'. It is a true blue-based berry color with a hint of purple. Pardon me as I am not so good in describing colors properly. As per the company claims,it gives the perfect one-stroke application which is so opaque that you may not need a second stroke. I am,personally a bit biased toward berries and purple hues,but this shade will look phenomenal on almost every skin tones.It stays on my lips for about 4-5 hours without any heavy meal. It does transfer but you can use some loose powders on it to make it more matte.
Good Things About It
- Highly pigmented
- Dermatologically tested
- Does not dry out your lips
Not So Good Things
- Transfers
- Lasting power is not great
- Stains your lips (not sure about other colors,but this shades stains my lips)
Overall, a moderately performing new launch from Maybelline at an affordable price. Do check out the whole range HERE:
See You Soon

The bodies of two missing jet skiiers were pulled from the waters off Sea Gate in Brooklyn this afternoon as weeping relatives looked on.
Willie Tom, 44, was driving the jet ski and Celine Fu, 29, was riding when Fu suddenly fell off and disappeared under the water at Kaiser Park last night, witnesses said.
Tom immediately jumped in to save her but was apparently dragged under by the struggling Fu. Neither victim was wearing a life vest.
"He was a great man, an adventurous guy. He loved helping people," said Toms' younger brother, Michael, 38, as he and their mother watched from shore this afternoon as police divers recovered the bodies of his sibling and Fu.
"There was no way he was going to come up without her. She was struggling, and if she wasn't coming up, he wasn't without her," Toms said, adding that his brother was a "great swimmer."
Willie Toms' body was recovered around noon, while Fu's was found by the NYPD Harbor Unit an hour later.

Swedish Vegetarian Meatballs
These Swedish Vegetarian Meatballs are a healthy combination of quinoa and cauliflower, smothered in simple cream sauce and served atop fluffy mashed cauliflower!
It was only a matter of time, right? Before I started taking inspiration from the innumerable trips to IKEA we've made in the process of renovating our new house. Because a trip to IKEA is not complete until you've eaten something of vaguely Swedish origin.
But after our most recent trip, the tulip-man proclaimed that he would not be coming back ever (which I take to mean, we won't be back this month). So to fill the void that was my weekly Swedish meal, I've created my take on Swedish meatballs with a vegetarian version that is *the real deal*.
Ingredients in this Vegetarian Meatballs Recipe
These vegetarian meatballs have a simple ingredients list that doesn't involve any mystery meat alternatives. They're just: quinoa. cauliflower, breadcrumbs, eggs, and seasonings. They would honestly be delicious with any sauce you throw on them. Today, that sauce is an easy, fool-proof sauce that's rich and creamy (without any cream!)
I go true IKEA-style, serving these over a heap of fluffy mashed
potatoes cauliflower (recipe for the fluffiest mashed cauliflower here!) Add a dollop of sour berry jam and you're good to go.
Swedish Vegetarian Meatballs
Vegetarian Meatballs
- 2/3 cups dry quinoa 150 g, + 1 1/3 cup water
- 2 cups roughly chopped cauliflower about 1/2 head
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs 50 g
- 2 large eggs
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 1 tsp each salt and smoked paprika
- 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
- 1/4 cup olive oil 60 mL
Cream Sauce
- 4 Tbsp unsalted butter 56 g
- 4 Tbsp all purpose flour 40 g
- 2 cups vegetable broth 473 mL
- 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt or sour cream 60 g
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Make Meatballs: Combine quinoa and water in a pot and simmer for 10 minutes, or until tender. Meanwhile, add cauliflower to a large pot of water and simmer until fork-tender, about 10 minutes. Strain both and add to a food processor. Blitz a few times until mostly broken down. Add breadcrumbs, eggs, garlic, and seasonings, stirring to combine. Roll into tablespoon-sized balls.
- Cook Meatballs: Heat a dash of oil in a large skillet over medium/high heat. Fill the skillet with a batch of meatballs and cook, flipping them often to evenly brown all sides (about 5 minutes per batch). Continue heating new oil and cooking batches until meatballs are all cooked. Place on a paper towel when finished.
- Make Sauce: Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Whisk in flour and cook until tan, 3-5 minutes. Whisk in 1.5 cups broth (it should thicken quickly!) Add more broth until you reach a thickness to your liking. Allow sauce to cool slightly, then add yogurt or sour cream and season with salt and pepper.
- Serve: Serve meatballs warm with cream sauce on top of mashed cauliflower!

I can't wait to try these, perfect for mom!!!!
Thanks so much for all of your great work, love you💕💕💕Beverly
I tried to make these tonight and I had horrible luck with the meatballs staying together. I followed all the directions except I don't have a food processor so I used a potato masher to combine the cauliflower and quinoa. When I fried them, they just fell apart and we're impossible to turn. How do you make them stay together? The end product was tasty even though it wasn't the right shape 😂

16 – 27th July 2017, at Les Moulins de Paillard in Poncé-sur-le-Loir, France
Vernissage 16 July 2017 (exact time TBA)
In the last 3 years, we have been organizing a small etextile exhibition. We started this exhibition as we wanted to see the physical works of each other, therefore we asked everyone to bring one project of their own and exhibit it at Paillard during the Summer Camp. It turned out that this exhibition captured the current practice of etextile in diverse fields of interest. This year again, we plan an exhibition that will showcase 2 weeks at the gallery space at the Paillard, opening on the July 16th. The exhibition will be open to the public. For the exact opening hours, please wait for the announcement on this site.

The electric panel is the heart of any electric service whether in a residential, commercial or industrial building. Although there are two major categories of electric panels, fuse boxes and breaker boxes, they are both designed to do essentially the same thing – interrupt the flow of electricity in the event of an overloaded or shorted circuit. The most significant differences in these two types of electric panels, however, are how they protect your electric service and the devices plugged into it and the level of protection the fuses or breakers within the panels are able to provide. One of the biggest problems regarding electric panels today is that most homeowners and business owners assume their electric panels are safe. However, a number of recent studies have found that a disturbing number of electric panels are unsafe.
Over the past 130 years the use of electric power in homes and businesses has grown dramatically. Once used only to power low wattage electric lights, today not only do the majority of the items in our homes and businesses rely on electricity, they also use more electricity than ever before. As our demand for electricity increases, so too does the need for electrical panels capable of handling this additional power. Failure to upgrade the electrical panel of a home or business to meet these additional demands can result in disaster.
According to U.S. Census information, the average home is 40 years old. Over the years a number of improvements and regulations have helped to make electrical service safer. Electrical panels that contain fuses rather than circuit breakers are a red flag that the electrical service of a home or business may be outdated. Fuses started to be replaced with circuit breakers as early as the 1960's and had all but been phased out by the early 1970's. This means homes and businesses with electrical panels containing fuses may contain wiring that's over 40 years old, which may not meet many of today's electrical codes.
Even newer electrical panels that contain circuit breakers may not be as safe as they should be if they were installed prior to 2008. A new type of circuit breaker, the arc-fault circuit breaker, has helped make electrical service safer than ever. Arc-fault breakers not only disrupt the flow of electricity to circuits in the event of overloads and shorts, but also in the event of unintentional electrical arcs, which can cause electrical fires. Fuses and traditional circuit breakers simply don't provide this added protection. Starting in 2008 the use of arc-fault breakers was mandated in electrical panels helping to protect homes and businesses from electrical fires.
Another safety concern regarding the electrical panel in your home or business is the reliability of the electrical panel itself. One of the leading manufacturers of electrical panels in North America from the early 1950's until the late 1980's, Federal Pacific Electric Company (FPE), was recently accused of knowingly producing unsafe electric panels and circuit breakers for decades and never issued a recall according to an NBC investigation. FPE electrical panels and circuit breakers were used in a majority of homes built prior to 1990. Investigators estimate that these unsafe electrical panels and circuit breakers may be responsible for as many as 2,000 electrical fires nationwide each year.

Whether it is the safety of your electrical service in your home or at your business, you deserve the peace of mind of knowing it is safe and reliable. Our staff of experienced, knowledgeable and friendly electricians are licensed, insured and dedicated to making sure your electric service is as safe as it can be.

These developments may surprise those of us who learned in high school that carbon, in its familiar incarnations of diamond and graphite, does not conduct electricity well. During the past 15 years, however, researchers have discovered new forms of carbon: very small structures comprising a few hundred to 1,000 atoms, through which electrons travel with ease. Of particular interest is the carbon nanotube, a molecule that resembles rolled-up chicken wire, only the "wire" is a sheet of carbon atoms that is 100 million times as small as the version used for chicken coops.
In many classic science-fiction stories, alien life is based on silicon--the substance at the core of modern electronics technology--rather than on carbon, the fundamental building block of earthly biology. Scientists have even speculated that they might someday create silicon life-forms. Instead the opposite is starting to happen: carbon is serving as the foundation for electronic devices--and in the process is breathing new life into the quest for inexpensive, flexible products that offer a broad range of capabilities.

Engineering Leadership – Becoming a More Effective Leader
September 30-October 2, 2020 at the Stayer Center for Executive Education
October 20-22, 2020 at the Stayer Center for Executive Education
One of the most critical career transitions for engineers and technical professionals is the move from individual contributor to manager and leader. Whether that is in a formal management role or as a project leader, strong interpersonal and leadership skills can determine future opportunities.
Notre Dame's Mendoza College of Business presents a professional development opportunity for technical professionals who are either preparing for this transition or have already begun to move into a leadership role. On September 30-October 2, 2020 and October 20-22, 2020, Engineering Leadership – Becoming a More Effective Leader will be presented at the Stayer Center for Executive Education on the Notre Dame campus.

- Learn to be consciously competent managers with effective leadership and managerial skills, including performance development and team leadership.
- Develop interpersonal skills and awareness that will improve performance – both their own and that of their employees.
- Design a specific plan to become successful leaders within their own organizations.
This hands-on workshop challenges the participants to assess their own leadership styles, understand how to motivate employees and help those employees reach their full potential, develop skills in the areas of constructive feedback, conflict resolution and problem solving, and better understand how to meet the difficult challenges of managing people, instead of data or things!
Who Should Attend:
This program is designed for technical professionals who have managerial or leadership responsibilities – Team Leaders, Project Leaders, Section Heads, Supervisors, Department Heads, Managers, etc. It also includes any managers who do not have strong technical backgrounds, but now find themselves leading people with technical training and responsibilities.

Super Bowl swiped: Roger Goodell replaces woman's stolen tickets
Two women traveling from Seattle to New York for Super Bowl XLVIII had their tickets to the big game stolen when one got her wallet snatched at San Francisco International Airport on Friday.
Nicole Hill and her friend Sarah Agerup, from Seattle, made the trip separately, meeting up in the Big Apple when Hill had to break the news that their tickets were stolen.
Later that night, Hill brandished a cardboard sign on CBS 2's evening broadcast with Lonnie Quinn detailing her plight.
Lucky for the pair of friends, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell happened to be watching the broadcast.
He quickly contacted league officials to see if the NFL could offer the women replacement tickets. They, in turn, contacted CBS 2's newsroom to put them in touch with Hill and Agerup.
About an hour after Hill appeared on the broadcast, she was rejoined by Quinn as she spoke to an NFL representative on the phone that offered her a pair of replacement tickets.
"It has been a long 24 hours, I can admit to that, but we're here in New York, and apparently my friend is crying about something good, so I think our luck may be changing," said Hill to an NFL representative right before learning about the tickets.
Goodell met the women on Super Bowl Boulevard on Saturday to personally deliver the tickets along with an invitation to walk the red carpet and attend Saturday's NFL Honors show at Radio City Music Hall.
(Courtesy NFL PR)
The whole experience was particularly poignant for Agerup, whose parents first met on a blind date at a Seahawks game.
Her father, Brad, had been a trainer for the Seattle in the 80s.
Tragically, Agerup lost both parents when they were killed by a drunk driver in 2009.

Carrie Harwood and Joanna Abeyie are both rocking the nautical look today... and no, this colour coordination wasn't pre-planned! What I love about these outfits is that both of the girls have used a flash of red to brighten up their palette. Carrie is wearing an American Apparel stripy dress with New Look wedges, a coat from Kooples and a gorgeous Mulberry Alexa bag. She's channelling the Parisian look with a vintage red beret that makes her stand out from the crowd. Joanna is wearing her Gap tee with a blazer from New Look, Mango trousers and Primark shoes. Her H&M scarf adds a blaze of colour and the floral pattern provides a great contrast with her nautical stripes. Have you ever worn polka-dots with stripes? Or florals with animal print? Be playful with patterns and see what contrasts can do for your look!

Can't We All Just Trade Along?
The recent elections saw a great focus on the need to spur domestic job growth. Much has been said about this country's trade relations with Mexico, in particular. With the elections now behind us, we would be well served to look beyond the sound bites. The fact is that trading with Mexico and other foreign partners is essential to promote economic development and job growth in the U.S.
By continuing to work together, both the U.S. and Mexico could strengthen their economies and create new jobs for their people. This must be viewed as an opportunity, one that carries with it a hefty cost if not pursued: If the U.S. fails to take advantage of international markets and work with existing trading partners like Mexico, others will be quick to step in and reap the benefits.
The U.S. is already, arguably, behind the curve. Mexico is currently a signatory to 10 free trade agreements with 45 different countries. In contrast, the U.S. only has free trade agreements with 20 countries. Moreover, seven of the participating countries of the Trans-Pacific Partnership (which may be dead on arrival), are also negotiating the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership, which is a free trade agreement involving 15 countries, but not the U.S. If the U.S. does not encourage trade with its partners, and specifically Mexico, they will surely find other markets. The impact on the U.S. and the region could be substantial.
Net Importer, Near Parity
Mexico is our third largest overall trading partner, behind Canada and China. But consider that the U.S. imports from China four times what it exports, whereas it enjoys near parity in trade with Mexico: in 2015 U.S. exports to Mexico totaled about $236 billion and imports reached $295 billion.
So while there may be a trade deficit with Mexico, it should be viewed in the context of the large amounts of exports to Mexico. After Canada, Mexico is by far the largest export destination for U.S. goods, and U.S. exports to Mexico are over double those to China.
Role of Oil & Gas
Mexico has also opened its oil and gas markets to foreign development, and partnerships between Mexico's Petroleos Mexicanos (Pemex) and foreign companies. The market changes were enacted in December 2013 through constitutional amendment, and implemented in August 2014 through additional laws. Unfortunately, the changes came about as oil prices declined, so there have not been significant U.S. service exports or development to date. If and when oil prices rise, there should be additional opportunities for U.S. developers and service providers who have the expertise to develop new fields and extract oil and gas from non-traditional wells.
Mexico is also a growing market for U.S. natural gas. The U.S. has an abundant supply, but transportation is a barrier for exports. Exporting to most countries requires the use of liquefied natural gas (LNG), but the U.S. has pipelines to Mexico (and Canada) that can carry natural gas without the cost of LNG. According to U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) statistics, exports of natural gas to Mexico have tripled since 2010, and in 2015 they exceeded exports of natural gas to Canada, making Mexico the number one destination for U.S. natural gas.
The Boon of Bilateral Trade
Overall, bilateral trade has a substantial and positive impact on both nations. Exports to and imports from Mexico accounted for over 14 percent of all U.S. foreign trade in 2015. The U.S. and Mexican economies are deeply intertwined, and it makes sense to strengthen trade relations with a geographically close and significant partner that is making moves to open its markets. If the U.S. fails to encourage international trade, it risks being left behind in a growing international market.
