4:00 pmOut of Order Now more than ever, American citizens are discontented and disillusioned with national politics, with approval ratings for Congress consistently ranking low regardless of the party in power. Senior politicians also note the disappearance of the collegiality they once shared with peers of differing political ideologies. As a result, the ability to discuss issues from varying points of view and negotiate solutions, appears to be fading from the American political process.
Among many topics, this program addresses the decline in civil discourse and the news media's role in it, partisan gridlock, gerrymandering, vanishing commitment to reasonable compromise, the vilification of moderates and declining civic engagement. It relies on interviews with a broad range of political experts and observers from journalists, academics and political strategists to senior elected officials. They include: journalist Bob Schieffer (CBS News), Sen. Mark Warner (D-VA), Sen. Susan Collins (R-MA), Fmr Sen. Evan Bayh (D-IN), Fmr Sen. Alan Simpson (R-WY), Fmr Sen. John Warner (R-VA) . duration 27:52 STEREO TVG

5:00 pmMoyers & Company [#226H] Surviving The New American Economy 22 years ago, Bill Moyers started documenting the story of two ordinary families in Milwaukee, Wisconsin - families whose breadwinners had lost well-paying factory jobs. Relying on the belief that hard work is the key to a good living and better life, the Stanleys and the Neumanns, like millions of others, went about pursuing the American dream. But as they found other jobs, got re-trained, and worked any time and overtime, they still found themselves on a downward slope, working harder and longer for less pay and fewer benefits, facing devastating challenges and difficult choices.
This week, Moyers revisits his reports on the Stanleys and Neumanns - whose stories Bill updates on the July 9 Frontline report "Two American Families." He also talks with the authors of two important books about how the changing nature of the economy is affecting everyone: Barbara Miner, a public education advocate who's been following the decline of her own Milwaukee hometown for nearly 40 years; and author, activist and playwright Barbara Garson, who's published a number of books about the changing lives of working Americans. Her most recent is Down the Up Escalator: How the 99% Live in the Great Recession. duration 56:46 STEREO TVRE
6:00 pmMount Rushmore: American Experience High on a granite cliff in South Dakota tower the huge carved faces of four American presidents. Together they constitute the world's largest sculpture. The massive tableau inspires awe and bemusement. How, and when, was it carved? Who possessed the audacity to create such a gargantuan work? The story of Mount Rushmore's creation is as bizarre and wonderful as the monument itself. It is the story of hucksterism and hyperbole, of a massive public works project in the midst of an economic depression. And it is the story of dozens of ordinary Americans who suddenly found themselves suspended high on a cliff face with drills and hammers as a sculptor they considered insane directed them in the creation of what some would call a monstrosity and others a masterpiece. Narrated by Michael Murphy. duration 55:38 STEREO TVPG (Secondary audio: DVI)
7:00 pmSecrets of Henry VIII's Palace Hampton Court is the ultimate Royal pleasure palace - it embodies the indulgent and grandiose kingship built by Cardinal Wolsey and developed by Henry VIII.

Later, William and Mary would move to Hampton Court and demolish half of the Tudor palace to replace it with an exquisite baroque palace, making Hampton Court one of the most unique palaces in the world. A true palace of pleasure and now a now thriving tourist location, we scratch beneath the brick and stone to unveil an abundance of art and stories that bring Hampton Court alive. duration 54:40 STEREO TVPG

He gives us a personal tour around this magnificent manor that is still very much a family home.

Microlite74 2.0 Special Digest-Sized Edition Available
Posted by Randall Labels: cancer, DnD, Microlite74
After producing a very special one-of-a-kind edition of Microlite74 for the kind person who donated the most to my fund drive last month, I decided to produce a second "Special Edition" of Microlite74 that anyone who donates to the cancer fund can download and print a nice digest size edition. Unlike the "one-of-a-kind" edition, this edition is not personalized or signed, nor does it use professionally done character art of characters in my campaigns for illos.
If you have made a donation to the cancer fund, you can download a copy of the Microlite74 2.0 Special Edition at the same place you downloaded copies of The Grimoires using the same password. If you haven't donated to the cancer fund, but would like a copy, the next paragraph is for you.
To get pdf copies of Microlite74 2.0 Special Edition (as well as The Grimoire #1 and #2, the BECMI campaign house rules and more), send a donation in any amount -- small or large -- to me via the Paypal button. My apologies for having to ask for donations and my heartfelt thanks to everyone who donates. While the weird money problem I had last month is over, we still have racked up over $100K in bills for my wife's cancer treatments -- the fun of no insurance in America -- so my wife thinks I should keep the fund going, and she's probably right. If you can donate and wish to, thank you very much. If you just want free copies of Microlite74 2.0, just click on the Microlite74 link in the header. The free rules are the same as the donor rules, only the formatting and illustrations differ.

Articles are provided by the Long Realty Short Sale Resource Group, a collaboration of Long Realty agents and managers with an expansive knowledge of short sales.
Helpful Short Sale Tips and FAQ
Q: How long do I have to wait to buy a new home after I have had to do a short sale on a previous home?
Q: What are the first steps to getting ready to purchase again?
Q: Will a large down payment be required when I do want to enter the housing market again?
Q: Is there any difference in getting back into the market, if the short sale was an investment property or a primary residence?
Find the Answers to These Questions
Short Sales and Bank Owned Properties
"Short sales" and bank owned properties can present buying opportunities. Be aware though that purchasing these types of properties will require additional approvals from the property owner's lender(s), and therefore often lengthen and complicate the transaction process.
Short Sale / Pre Foreclosure
A "short sale" is a real estate transaction in which the sales price is insufficient to pay the loans(s) encumbering the property, in addition to the costs of sale, and the seller is unable to pay the difference. The approval of the seller's lender(s) is required for the sale to proceed.
Search Short Sales:
Foreclosure / Bank Owned Properties
The legal process by which a lender or creditor exercises its legal rights to sell the property which was security for its loan at public auction and the owner's rights are terminated. Bank Owned Properties are those properties where the property was acquired by the former owner's lender after such an auction.

In 2007 I've worked a lot with NUnitForms. It contains all major controls testers and you can easily create
your own ones for e.g. a Data Grid or a 3rd party control. I had to create one for Janus GridEx and it wasn't really
that hard. A little reflection went a long way :) Lately, the whole project was at a standstill for some time but now it seems
it's revitalizing nicely with new people on board. So if you haven't yet go take look. This is just one open source GUI testing platform
and I'm sure there are others... I haven't checked them out though.
Now to the big question: Is it worth it? It depends...
I'm not a hardcore TDD practitioner but I like having repeatable unit tests. But having automated GUI unit tests is in my opinion a waste of time.
Why? It simply isn't worth spending time writing them. You should have enough code coverage with non GUI tests to find any bugs long before
hitting the GUI. You might want to be tempted to unit test control positions or visibility or some other property... don't bother.
You'll spend your time better if you write more non GUI unit tests and check your GUI by hand (eye).
So what are they useful for? Well... I've used them for acceptance and integration testing with great success.
Integration Tests...
... test how different parts of your application work together. These kinds of GUI tests proved to be VERY useful and they are worth investing time in.
They have a great ROI (return on investment) once they're written.
For example we had a large workflow based application that was completely async in nature. It had a windows forms client that could be deployed on
multiple computers, all those clients connected to a single server that hosted a few webservices for data modifications, retrieval and some other stuff.
The whole app was also connected to Sharepoint server, Exchange Server, SQL Server, used InfoPath and a 3rd party software to export data from
and into it. With one single GUI integration test we could easily see if everything worked together as it should. We mocked the InfoPath and
3rd party software but everything else ran great.
The point of using GUI tests here is to see how and if your whole application works with all parts integrated together from GUI interaction
to Exchange connectivity. Even the best non GUI integration tests simply don't do that.
Acceptance Tests...
... test if your software is up to some specs usually defined by the business process. They're in essence a black box test.
You don't care what goes on inside the software you just want to see if the output is correct for a certain input.
In workflow based processes this can be very useful since you know what the input and output parameters are for your workflow.
For example you start the workflow in your app via NUnitForms, pressing "move in workflow" buttons until the workflow end and then check if
the output parameters have the correct values. You can check for various different GUI parameters in this test along the way but as I said above
don't go overboard. I usually just check for visibility of certain panels or grids... simple things like that.
When I first started with GUI testing I thought it was a really big waste of time. And to tell you the truth if you don't draw the line somewhere it is.
I even had a moment when I thought it was a good idea to test everything only with GUI tests. That was so far over line I couldn't even see it anymore.
Luckily that moment passed pretty fast. Don't make the same mistake. If used wisely automated GUI tests are a big benefit.

Memphis Takes Lead Late, Downs Cal State Northridge
March 19, 2009

View/Create Highlight Videos
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) - After battling heartbreak and tragedy just to reach the NCAA tournament, the Matadors of Cal State-Northridge ran into the greatest game of Roburt Sallie's life.
Finally, something proved too much to overcome.
Sallie, averaging 4.5 points all year for Memphis, hit 10 3-pointers and scored 35 as the second-seeded Tigers beat the plucky Matadors 81-70 Thursday, dodging what would have been one of the biggest upsets in tournament history.
"Coach said keep shooting," said Sallie, whose previous career high was 13. "None of my teammates would ever expect me to score 35 points. I never made 10 3-pointers before."
Neither did anyone else in the first round of the NCAA tournament. Sallie's onslaught erased the first-round record and enabled Memphis (32-3) to avoid the stigma of being just the fifth No. 2 seed to lose to a No. 15 since the tournament went to a 64-team format in 1985.
"I've had 13 points in four games in the morning before," Sallie said, "but I remained focused and stayed awake."
The Matadors (17-14) concentrated their defense on Memphis' more accomplished shooters and seized a six-point lead with a little more than 10 minutes to play, bringing a roar from a capacity crowd that had quickly become enchanted with the 19-point underdogs.
"Obviously, we didn't anticipate what Sallie was going to do today," said Northridge coach Bobby Braswell.
Sallie kept Cal State-Northridge at bay during a lackluster first half that earned the Tigers, last year's national runners-up, a halftime tongue-lashing.
"I called it arrogance at halftime," said Memphis coach John Calipari. "My job is to keep their swagger, but it moved into arrogance."
The Matadors, who lost one of their top players in a traffic accident during the season and another to a burglary charge, never seemed intimidated and led most of the second half.
The crowd went crazy when Vincent Cordell's bucket put the Matadors up 62-56. But then Sallie hit another 3-pointer and Antonio Anderson, hardly a factor most of the game, launched a decisive 9-0 run that saved the favorites.
Sallie's 10 3-pointers surpassed the first-round record of nine, set by Michigan's Garde Thompson in 1987. At one point in the first half Sallie scored 11 straight points for the Tigers, and hit his first five shots from beyond the arc.
The Tigers were trailing 64-61 when Anderson, who had three fouls and one point early in the second half, finally came to life. The shorter Matadors missed five straight shots and failed to pull down a single offensive rebound, and Anderson's bucket made it 64-63.
Then the 6-6 senior hit a 6-footer to put the Tigers on top to stay.
In a back-and-forth flurry midway through the second half, freshman guard Tyreke Evans put in a bucket and was fouled, and made the free throw for a 56-55 Memphis lead. But Willie Galick quickly erased that with two foul shots for the Matadors.
"Tyreke Evans and Robert Dozier weren't as good as they usually are. But at this point, we're just trying to march on," Calipari said.
Anderson's bad pass turned the ball back to Northridge and Rodrique Mels sank a 3-pointer, then following another turnover, Cordell's bucket gave the Matadors a 62-56 lead.
Mels led five players in double figures for the Matadors. Kenny Daniels and Tremaine Townsend each had 14, Mark Hill added 13 and Galick 12.
Evans, the Memphis freshman who replaced Derrick Rose, the No. 1 overall pick in the last NBA draft, finished with 15 points and Anderson wound up with 13.
"Our point was to pressure Dozier inside and force other guys to hit shots," Braswell said. "I have no problem with it, because my focus in practice was to force them to take contested shots. And I believe most of (Sallie's) shots were contested. He stepped up and made big plays. I ran into Callipari and he said that was his best game he's ever played. He made some big shots and you have to give them credit for that."

The Northwest Portland Area Indian Health Board (NPAIHB) conducts health policy and legislative analysis on health care and budget issues affecting Indian health programs. The Board analyzes the Indian Health Service budget and other health care financing programs that impact Indian health care programs. NPAIHB also prepares Congressional testimony for health care financing and other important health policy issues at the federal and state levels. Click on the respective links to access detailed information about each aspect.
Policy Overview
There is a "legal and political relationship" between the United States and Indian Tribes, which establishes a federal responsibility to provide health services to Indian people. This federal obligation is established in the US Constitution, through treaties and Presidential Executive Orders entered into between the United States and Indian Tribes. This obligation has been affirmed through numerous court decisions, legislation, and policy declarations by Presidential Administrations. This federal relationship forms the legal and moral foundation for the creation of health policies between the United States and Indian Tribes.
The Northwest Portland Area Indian Health Board is dedicated to upholding the responsibility of the United States to provide health services to Indian people under the federal trust relationship by:
- Advocating and educating Congressional representatives on treaty rights and how such rights relate to health care in Indian Country.
- Developing an Annual Legislative plan to provide recommendations on the President's annual budget and other health care financing programs like Medicare and Medicaid.
- Tracking legislation and other important health policy issues that affect the delivery of health care to American Indian and Alaska Native people.
- Finally, facilitating consultation between state and federal agencies and Tribal leaders on health policy issues in order to understand respective concerns to make important decisions on programs and services that effect Indian people.
To learn about Senate Bills and House Reports that may affect American Indian and Alaska Native people in the Northwest read on, or visit Resolutions.
See the Senate Indian Affairs Committee and the House Resources SubCommittee on Indian and alaska Native Affairs for a list of legislation that impacts Indian programs. Pending legislation can be tracked using the Floor Activity weekly feature of Thomas.

The Northwest Portland Area Indian Health Board (NPAIHB or Board) understands the significance of tracking appropriations for the Indian Health Service (IHS) budget. The IHS budget is the most important source of funding for Indian health programs, and is a recognized obligation of the federal government to provide health services to Indian people.
NPAIHB continues a long-standing tradition of close scrutiny of the IHS budget that began in the 1980s. The federal trust responsibility and the relationship between Tribes and the federal government, by definition, require a partnership in developing the IHS budget. Northwest Tribes are dedicated to this partnership by creating an Annual Budget Analysis and Recommendations Report as well as tracking appropriations to IHS programs.

The Northwest Portland Area Indian Health Board's (NPAIHB) resolution process is an important mechanism for policy making and is used to assist decision makers on Indian health matters. The usefulness and need of the Board's resolution process and decision making are clear:
* Resolutions are used in the Board's projects, programs, and policies.
* Resolutions assist in the development of Indian health policies.
* Resolutions are used to unite policies and people.
* Resolutions involve input from Tribal constituents (Tribal Leaders, Health Directors, Indian health policy experts, and other Indian health interests).
* Resolutions provide information about Tribal positions for decision makers.
* Resolution development is a proactive process that works toward positive outcomes.
Resolutions are introduced at NPAIHB Quarterly Board Meetings and carried on for introduction at the annual Affiliated Tribes of Northwest Indians (ATNI) conference. A number of resolutions adopted by ATNI are later introduced at the National Congress of American Indians (NCAI) and form the basis of becoming national Indian health policy issues. This process establishes an national Indian health policy agenda that becomes a focal point for Tribal leader and Congressional advocacy.
The Northwest Portland Area Indian Health Board is charged with facilitating State–Tribal relationships in Idaho, Oregon, and Washington. This important aspect is carried out via quarterly meetings between key representatives from State health agencies, Tribal leaders and Health Directors, as well as other Indian health advocates to assure Tribal interests are taken into account as health policy is formulated.

Jan. 15, 2014
PRINCESS ANNE, Md. - The University of Maryland Eastern Shore (UMES) Department of Athletics is pleased to announce that it has chosen its 2014 Hall of Fame class. The class will be enshrined during Homecoming weekend in a ceremony to be held, Friday, February 14, 2014 in the ballroom of the Student Service Center on campus.
With the induction of the six new members, the UMES Athletics Hall of Fame will have 205 total members. The newest class includes five former student-athletes and one administrator.
Former athletic director, Dr. Hallie E. Gregory, will be honored for his accomplishments along with a total of five former student-athletes will receive the ultimate distinction from UMES. Hardwood greats, Thomas Stewart and Donnell Boney, join the list along with three standouts from the track and field/cross country era, including National Champion Albert Santio, Olympian Dawnette Douglas and two-time individual conference champion Clayton Nichols.
The 2014 UMES Athletics Hall of Fame class is:
Dr. Hallie E. Gregory - Athletic Director 1989-2000
Gregory led the Hawks as Director of Athletics from 1989-2000. In his very first biography written for the 1989-1990 media guides, it stated that "his task is to expand the facilities and to enhance the athletic programs." Did he ever. Responsible for the planning and building of the William P. Hytche Athletic Center, Gregory advanced UMES Athletics into a facility that today still stands as one of the best in the conference.
In advancing athletics, Gregory made several key hires along the way, including current head track and field coach Ernest Barrett, who has produced four conference championships and 15 All-Americans in his tenure. Gregory also oversaw a track and field program that won five Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC) Championships prior to Barrett's hiring. A former collegiate Track coach at the Coast Guard Academy, Gregory produced two Division II National Champions and six All-Americans during his tenure and knew a quality track coach when he saw one.
Also important to note was the hiring of former men's basketball coach Rob Chavez. Chavez, who only coached at UMES for two seasons, caught Gregory's attention. Also a former collegiate basketball coach with two conference championships to his credit, Gregory made the hire that would produce a winning record in the 93-94 season, the first for the school since the 1980-81 season.
Perhaps most notably, Gregory was critical in the creation of a women's bowling program at the school. Just two years into the program's existence he hired MEAC Hall of Fame and two-time National Coach of the Year Sharon Brummell. At the time, Brummell had never coached any athletics team, but his vision saw something in her that eventually led to Brummell winning the school's first NCAA National Championship in 2008. She would go on to win two more, both in 2011 and pick up five conference championships along the way.
Gregory is also credited with helping shape the mascot of Harry The Hawk, the loveable mascot of UMES. Gregory made the investment not only in the Hawk suit but in making the character visible and part of the school spirit initiative.
Albert Santio - Men's Track & Field 1959-1963
Al Santio, a standout out field performer for the Hawks, loomed over the competition, both literally and figurative. Standing at 6-7, Santio used his height and size to its fullest. His discus toss in June of 1963 (53.32) still stands today as school records.
More than just a thrower, Santio was an integral part of the 1963 team that won two National Championship and an NAIA District 19 Championship. Before UMES women's bowling did it in 2011, Santio and his teammates, which included Hall of Famers Charlie Mays and Ed Skinner won two National Championships in the same year. The then, Maryland State College Hawks, with just a seven-man squad, took the NAIA championship in May and later the NCAA Division II title (then known as the College Division) in June. The seven Hawks scored an impressive 98 points, a record that stood until 1982. They made it a three-peat by capturing the NAIA District 19 title earlier in the season.
Santio also starred in basketball for four seasons and was the captain his senior season. Wearing number 32 and nicknamed "Lil' Abner," Santio would go on to play professional basketball, being drafted in the 1963 NBA draft by the St. Louis Spirits. He was the sixth pick of the sixth round of a draft that saw only 84 players. He was the 51st overall pick. He later played in the ABA, including a stint with the Hartford Capitals.
Thomas Stewart - Men's Basketball 1966-1970
W. Thomas Stewart, a 1970 graduate and four-year starter in basketball was part of one of the most productive four-year spans in UMES Basketball history. Stewart's teams went a combined 77-25 including a 1970 season where the team was 20-0 in the regular season and finished 29-2 overall. That season the team won the NAIA District 19 title, was runner-up to the CIAA Championship, was CIAA Visitation Champions for the Northern Division and fell in the Quarter-finals of the NAIA Tournament. That team also earned a No. 1 ranking in the Associate Press Small College poll.
The previous season Stewart's team was runner-up to the NAIA National Championship, posting a 27-5 record.
Stewart also was a baseball player for the Hawks, starting at third base all four years of his career and was part of the 1968 CIAA Championship Team.
Donnell Boney - Men's Basketball 1982-1986
Donnell Boney was a three-time All-MEAC selection who scored 1,826 points in his stellar four-year career for the Hawks. That tally ranks him third all-time for the Hawks, second overall in the Division I era. Boney was a first-team selection in the MEAC his senior year, posting 15 points, 4.3 rebounds, 3.8 assists and 1.7 steals per game. Despite having an even better year his junior season, Boney was named a second-team All-MEAC honoree. That season he led the league is assists with 131 helpers over 28 games, good for almost five per contest at 4.7. He also chipped in 18.4 points, 5.6 boards and two steals per contest.
The 6-0 guard averaged 10.5 points per game as a freshman and was one of just two players that year to play in every game. Boney led the team in scoring his sophomore and junior seasons and was second his freshman and senior campaigns. He shot an impressive .43 percent (654/1539) for his career.
Dawnette Douglas - Women's Track & Field 1989-1994
Dawnette Douglas etched her name in the history books as the first female student-athlete from UMES to compete in the Olympics. Douglas ran in the 1992 Olympics in Barcelona for her home country of Bermuda, competing in the 100 & 200 meter dashes. Her contributions to the school however, go beyond the Olympics.
For her efforts, UMES captured the Women's Outdoor Track & Field Championship, held at Florida A&M in the 1991-92 season.
Clayton Nichols - Men's Cross Country/Track & Field 1993-1997
Clayton Nichols earned the MEAC's Most Outstanding Performer honors twice during his illustrious cross country and track and field career. His sophomore and junior campaigns saw him earn the 1994 and 1995 individual honor from the MEAC for winning both conference championship races. Those same years Nichols led his Hawks to the conference championship in men's cross country.
Running on a 10 kilometer course, Nichols blistered the track in 1994, posting a time of 30:34. That time for a 10K course still stands today as a UMES record and is second overall in the conference record book. Nichols ran the 1995 race with a time of 33:47
In his senior campaign Nichols just missed winning again, coming in second place to a runner from Bethune-Cookman. Nichols was considered so dominant of a distance runner in the MEAC, that the story created headlines in papers both locally and throughout Florida. His freshman season Nichols took fifth overall, giving him four top-five finishes in each championship.
Tickets can be purchased for the Hall of Fame banquet by calling the UMES Athletic Office at 410-651-6496.

Will Apple's iTunes 10 Ping Music Social Network be Successful or a Failure? Will Steve Jobs' Marketing Strategy Succeed or Fail?
- 9-3-2010
- Categorized in: Artist / Band, Business Models, Distribution, Music Industry, Social Media, Technology
New music discovery has been the biggest challenge facing the music industry, especially with the decline of terrestrial radio and the flood of new media.
Steve Jobs announced the Ping social networking service in an attempt to solve the "discovery of new music dilemma." Ping is integrated within iTunes 10. However is Ping really a killer feature threatening the likes of MySpace, Last.fm or Pandora?
Ping is a music-centric social networking service that features a Facebook-like newsfeed, detailing what your friends and family are listening to as well as buying. After you opt-in to use the service, Ping will monitor your musical habits and broadcast them to all your friends and family that are following you.
Steve Jobs described Ping as a "Facebook and Twitter meets iTunes" at the iPod AppleTV event in San Francisco. "But it's not Facebook, it's not Twitter. It's a social network all about music."
Ping allows you to become a tastemaker or DJ to your followers. It also can help you discover new music through others by following people in that niche genre and look at their recommendations. You can even post reviews of new songs and your followers can listen to the track and buy it with one click through iTunes. In addition, Ping offers customized song and album charts, and concert listings powered by LiveNation connected through every listener's playlist.
Why does Steve Jobs think Ping's social recommendation is important? Numerous studies have suggested that the strongest recommendation is that of a friend. A March study by the market research company Morpace found that 2/3 of Facebook users say the social network influences their buying decisions.
Product reviews make or break purchase decisions, suggest survey data from ChannelAdvisor Corp. Their survey found that 92% of buyers read product reviews when considering a purchase. Of those consumers, 46% said product reviews influenced them to make purchases, while 43% said product reviews deterred them from buying. 3% said reading reviews did not influence their purchase decisions.
In 2009, Opinion Research Corp found that 84% of buyers were influenced by online reviews. In July 2010, another survey by Gartner found that consumers use Twitter and Facebook to actively research purchasing choices.
What are the implications for Apple, the world's biggest music retailer? Ping could become a powerful music-purchasing recommendation engine given that iTunes already has 160 million purchase-friendly users and close to surpassing the 12 billion song sale milestone.
Ping also allows artists to have their own band pages, where they can post their latest songs, concert dates and news. Exclusive tracks can be posted to Ping and fans will be notified with the one-click "Buy Now" button.
The anatomy of the intrigue to Ping is obvious. It is conversion-based. In other words, what will most likely lead to a sale? Would an artist prefer Facebook fans ("Like"), Twitter followers ("Retweet") or Ping followers ("Buy")? The "Buy Now" sentiment resonates hard for musicians who struggle to make a living online.
Just like Facebook, Ping can leverage its massive user base to add new and competitive social features. Ping already has "Like" and commenting features like Facebook and a "Follow" system like Twitter. Apple launched Ping because Steve Jobs understands the value of social networks and how well Apple can leverage them to drive music sales and ultimately sell more devices - the bread and butter of Apple. The "Buy" buttons right inside conversations is an indication of the commercial intent that Apple is trying to take advantage of.
Privacy might become an issue for Apple though, since the premise of Ping is that others can observe your buying behavior. Facebook's Beacon debacle can serve as an example of what not to do. Beacon was part of Facebook's advertisement system that sent data from external sites to Facebook, for the purpose of allowing targeted advertisements and allowing users to share their activities with their friends. This did not pan very well for Facebook users. Steve Jobs made special mention of the privacy tools in Ping: "[You can] get as private or public as you want. Privacy is super simple to set-up, anyone can do it."
Why Apple iTunes' Ping Music Social Network is Important. 10 Reasons why Ping will be Successful.
- iTunes has 160 million users. The massive user-base ensures that the network effect is significant enough to bring in revenues to the music industry, since iTunes users are the most likely to buy and enjoy higher purchasing conversion rates than other networks. u can not overlook that iTunes has sold 12 billion songs. However, the real question is how many of these users are active?
- Ping is focused on music exclusively. Other networks such as Facebook and Twitter are primarily based on social activities not music. Myspace has a significant music focus, but has many other distractions and media that take away from the music focal point.
- Ping is focused on music discovery. Whether it is friend recommendations or music posts, the driving force of Ping is to help new music be discovered and shared.
- The Ping user demographic is buy-friendly, legal and music-focused. Users on iTunes have a credit card on file and are responsible for most of the legal digital purpose for the music industry.
- iTunes controls the music content. Since iTunes has the advantage of being the direct seller of the content, it can best leverage its social network to maximize sales using direct sales and one-click impulse buying. No middle-men necessary.
- Ping can cross sell other Apple products or affiliate partner services. Ping users will be exposed to other Apple-centric marketing efforts, such as selling new hardware devices (iPod, iPad, AppleTV, iPhone). Also partners such as LiveNation can cross-sell tickets to a music-centric customer. iTunes store offers other content, including movies, TV shows and ebooks. Apple iTunes not only sold nearly 11.7 songs, it has also sold 450 million TV shows , 100 million movies and 35 million e-books.
- Apple's userbase is evangelical. They will endorse Apple products or services no matter what.
- Apple has the iPhone advantage to gain social networking lead. Mobile and smart phones are still at their infancy. There is no clear-cut mobile social network dominant force even though Facebook is in the lead. Apple's service is now compatible with the more than 150 million iOS-compatible devices worldwide.
- Apple controls distribution. It is an Apple world. No-one can play without Apple's permission.
- Apple control their hardware devices which work seamlessly with iTunes. iPhones, iPads, iPods and other devices are designed to work with iTunes and take advantage of its distribution channel.
- It is only the beginning. Apple will make improvements. Every launch has its glitches, as the iPhone or iPad examples illustrates. If it is one thing that Apple does well, it is that they take pride in improving their products and services. They are customer focused.
- Simple and easy-to-understand interface. Ping's interface is clean and easy to figure out.
- Apple is still considered cool and cutting edge. This is the reason many will flock to Ping to check out what all the fuss is all about. Apple's statements confirm their mantra: "Everyone who loves music is on Ping."
- Apple will help artists make more money and fight piracy. By building a social network that is buy-friendly, Ping can decrease piracy and educate more consumers about the benefits of buying legal music.
- Cut the middlemen out. Myspace artist pages have links going to iTunes or Amazon MP3. Why is the middleman needed?
Not everyone is convinced though that Ping is the next revolution of music discovery.
- Another Social Network heachache for artists. Many artists have another social network to deal with. Myspace, Facebook, Twitter and now Ping. With no proven track record, most artists will join the bandwagon if only it becomes relevant. As Google's Buzz has shown, you require more than just a great idea. You need adoption.
- No integration with other social networks. Where is the Facebook, Twitter or Myspace integration? Apple should start negotiating with those companies and roll out integration features.
- No website. Ping is software based and can not be accessed on the web.
- Software requirements. iTunes 10 is not universally compatible with all devices.
- Ping functions in a closed ecosystem that only Apple can leverage. Ping is not open to other applications to work. You live in Apple's world, not yours.
- Ping is invite-only. Unsigned artists and indie bands need to be invited to use the network.
- Ping only benefits major artists. By limiting competition, established artists win out.
- New artist discovery is slim. Artist pages are limited to a few artists and so is not a lot of opportunity to discover new artists.
- Ping and iTunes is not global. Apple iTunes only operates in 23 countries. Where is the rest of the world? What if your friends are not from those countries?
- Widespread adoption will be difficult to achieve. Even though iTunes boasts 160 million users, it seems widespread adoption will be hard task for Apple, since they have a propensity to exclude non-Apple users. Also how many of the 160 million users is currently active?
- Apple is playing social network catch up. Steve Jobs realizes that Apple needs to jump into the social networking bandwagon since digital experiences today are most effective with a layer of social interaction.
- Tying a social network to a marketplace has not yet shown any significant commercial success. Myspace, Facebook and Twitter are still figuring ways to monetize. Given their large audiences, their revenue per user is small when compared to an Amazon or Google Search user. Users on social networks are primarily engaged in socializing.
- No location or geographic based services. An important component of social activity is geography and interacting with social or music events. Apple has neither.
- No friend importing. A social network without one of the most core components of inviting your friends is not utilized.
- Uploading photos is annoying. There is no automatic filtering system for photos similar to what Facebook has. The most popular section on music websites is the photo section. How did Apple miss this one?
- Apple is too cocky and confident. Making outlandish comments such as "Everyone who loves music is on Ping" could backfire, since not only is a truly global audience not allowed to participate, many users that love music do not own Apple products or use iTunes. Equating participation on Ping to the love of music is a dangerous proposition, especially with Apple's reputation of keeping its network closed, controlled and proprietary.
- Social Networks are open not closed. The web is based on openness and transparency. Apple is not an "open" company. Their social network is geared to a select few.
- Too many bugs. Pages freeze.
- Apple has piggybacked the music industry. Apple has piggybacked on piracy to sell iPods and their hardware. Aren't 95% of songs on iPods illegally downloaded? Artists know that building a new social network will benefit Apple more.
- No offical music website link and no email list generator. Apple keeps all the fan contacts. There is no way artists can collect emails of their followers through Ping. As the Myspace example highlights, what happens when your fans leave a social network you do not control? You lose all your followers and all the work you put in. You can not connect your official artist website to Ping. It is truly a closed ecosystem. Why would artist want to promote something so self-centred and self-serving to Apple?
Apple will determine its own destiny in regards to Ping. It is too early to say whether Ping will be a success or not. It has been a shaky start and Apple has its hands full. Only time will tell.

Excellent article! This is why I never buy Apple. I just do not want to be held captive in their 4-wall world
Apple is all about making the big money. They could care less about indie or unsigned artists. Invitation-only? Are you kidding me?! I will stick to open systems. Call me when Apple becomes "social" and does not discriminate.
iTunes and Ping is irrelevant to me. Why? Because I do not live in those 23 countries that Apple caters to. Shame. Then they wonder why piracy is rampant. Some want to pay but can't. So much for impulse buys.
I heard Ping is a ghost town. I really do like that the social network's users is a demographic that pays for music. Problem is 99c downloads won't save the music industry and help us make a living.
Awesome article! I like that you pose the pros and cons of Ping.
Seems Ping still needs a lot of work. The upside could be huge if Apple opens up and is more flexible. Unsigned bands always get screwed by Apple. We need aggregators to get on iTunes. Middle-men galore!!
Seems Apple is copying the Facebook look and feel. I wonder if Facebook is going to sue them. I heard they're negotiating to get Facebook Connect on board.
Thumbs up on the post. Very thorough read.
The news is that there is a lot of spammy accounts popping up. What is up with that? Apple better clean up their system. Welcome to the world of social networking and fake accounts Steve Jobs! :)
I think Apple and Steve Jobs are just playing catch-up. Closed social networks never work if the goal is mass appeal. Look at social networks such as ASmallWorld. Those are elitist-type of networks geared for niche audiences. Music is universal. You can not hold it captive in a closed system and expect everyone to jump the bandwagon. I love what Apple has done with their products and hardware but I am not so sure about their social media strategy. It does not seem to be their core strength.
Apple do not understand social media. It's about openness, connectivity, transparency, something Apple is fighting tooth and claw. Ping isn't a social media like facebook or twitter - it's the Amazon store recommendations, done by someone who doesn't understand user behaviour.
I really do agree with most of these comments! It's too late for apple/itunes to join the social networks. Facebook is far beyond everyone else in the social networks. Ping has already FAILED due to it's bad reputation for not helping the artists in need (pre-artists will remember!). Myspace is a joke because it's users don't even have a good reason to login anymore (lack of professional look). There are just a handful of music social networks out there. Every single one I've seen is lacking to entertain everyone, without fully copying FB. I know this is no easy feat as facebook gets bigger in the meanwhile. This is all just a time game! The first one to create a fun music social site with rich features will surely dominate the market with music social networking. I hope to see something soon but it's not going to be MOG which is a copycat of Europe's Spotify.com or the failed $10 subscription to USA's Rhapsody. People want to pay per song and not want to be obligated to a monthly fee. I'm sticking with Amazon for music and fb for social networking until something entertaining comes out!

text: Snarkysmurf 0 Report post Posted September 23, 2012 Hello everyone, Recently I have begun construction on a small studio space. The contractor has already placed the sub-floor and needs to know what I'll be using for the primary. Originally we thought we would use single sheet linoleum but the size of the space (16'x20') prohibits that as linoleum only comes in 12' widths. At least that's what the retailers say. I would love to hear what you all have had success with and get your insights on this. Thanks all, Clint Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Berry Tire and Auto have done the highest quality of work for several years for me and my wife and this brake job was no different. They showed me the condition of the brakes and gave me my options honestly and with no hard sell. This business is so trustworthy that even though I moved north to the state border I still drive back to Berry for brakes, tires and other service issues.
5 stars BETTY S Customer since 2016
I always get great service at Berry Tire - I was told that a wheel realignment usually takes 1 1/2 hours on the phone. But when I brought my car in and waited, it actually only took 1 hour. The waiting room was clean and comfortable. A general assessment of my car's condition and tires were explained to me when it was finished and my car was waiting for me at the front of the store when I left. I am very happy with Berry Tire.

Marking the return to this entry level length, the new Portofino 40 is the result of a long hard study of a highly competitive market sector, and the end product is an absolute class leading all-rounder. In plan she's a two cabin, four+one berth, family or friends boat with central saloon, galley and twin access head and shower room. Beyond the exquisite owner stateroom forward, the real surprise is the headroom and huge hullside windows in the amidships cabin with its twin beds and third, child's berth. But at heart, like every Sunseeker, the Portofino 40 is a true sports cruiser, with a top speed of up to 34 knots.

text: The Compact H (2-Phase-Bio-Internal Filter) requires the following filter media: 1 x Poly Pad 1 x Carbon Sponge 2 x Filter Sponge - coarse 2 x Filter Sponge - fine Poly Pad: Poly Pads are designed to absorb larger particles of dirt in the water. When the particles are caught by the pads they are prevented from obstructing the growth of water-cleansing bacteria. Change poly pads weekly, or more often if you have large or strongly burrowing fish. Carbon Sponge: The carbon sponge cleans the water from chemical pollution by binding these substances and preventing their release back into the water. In order to utilise the full effectiveness of the activated carbon this sponge should be changed every four weeks, or more often if you have large or strongly burrowing fish. Filter Sponge Coarse and Fine: The filter sponges contain bacteria which effectively clean the water. We recommend carefully cleaning one sponge at a time with warm water every 3-6 months, or replacing it. Only one sponge at a time should be replaced in order to maintain the biological balance in the aquarium.Check stock and price

Being that I haven't attended Southeast Technical Institute, I feel that every staff member from admissions and formers students have been very helpful and intiative with answering all my questions. I like that they offer the right programs that I've been trying to seek out in schools that I've researched and the cost of out of state is the same as in state tuition. Also, I like the fact that the people are very friendly in the city which plays another part of me moving from California to attend this school.
