Real Estate's Most Connected Agent
Jason Mitchell—Real Estate's B2B Guru
At 39, Jason Mitchell has accomplished more in the real estate industry than many real estate lifers could ever dream.
Mitchell began operating his team, The Jason Mitchell Group, in Scottsdale, Ariz., in 2010. Since then, they have closed more business than almost any other team over that span. In fact, in the past 10 years, The Jason Mitchell Group has produced more than $5 billion in sales volume with more than 11,000 homes sold. Today, the organization operates in 15 states and 33 submarkets across the USA.
"Our motto is very simple—we lead by opportunity," Mitchell says. "We're not a brokerage that just wants to recruit agents to recruit agents. In every market that we are in, our model is based around the opportunities that we receive from our great referral partners. We must deliver on our commitment to our agents that they will have more opportunity here than anywhere else, while also staying true to our partners when we tell them we have the best agents to service their clients."
Mitchell's accolades include being named the top-producing agent in Arizona in 2016, 2017 and 2018; in 2019, he was voted Arizona's Most Influential Millennial by Arizona Foothills; last year he was awarded RISMedia's National Homeownership Award, sponsored by Quicken Loans, during RISMedia's Annual Power Broker Reception & Dinner, headlined by Daymond John of "Shark Tank"; and in 2020, Mitchell was named the Real Estate Agent of the Decade in the state of Arizona.
The success Mitchell has enjoyed stems from his unique approach to the business. "The real estate industry is becoming more B2B than ever before, as organizations now see that they must have a way of controlling this process for the consumer experience to meet the standards of expectation," he explains.
For years now, Mitchell has been on the forefront of this model—to say he has mastered this process is an understatement. He has focused on ensuring that the agents of The Jason Mitchell Group have become the most trained and qualified professionals in the B2B space.
A look at the real estate landscape shows that The Jason Mitchell Group systems and training around serving organizations and clients are nothing short of world-class. Starting with a full onboarding process and training program, while having specific partner training around best practices and processes, his sales and operations have a platform unlike any other. Additionally, the technology stack that composes all workflows and campaigns helps to make the company's overall process superior in the marketplace.
A key component of The Jason Mitchell Group's success has been utilizing a centralized strategy within its operations. Managing thousands of referral opportunities with a centralized platform provides consistency for Mitchell's operations staff and agents so that they can create a scalable model in all the markets they serve.
Clearly, the model is working, as Mitchell and his team service some of the largest organizations in the country, including Rocket Mortgage/Quicken Loans, Veterans United, Zillow Group, New American Funding, Bank of America, Axos Bank, Opendoor and many more.

"Without our great partners, we have nothing," Mitchell says. "It is so important that my partners know how much we care. I spend the majority of my day assisting and consulting my partners to ensure that they can put out the best product as possible. This is really my main job: to be a great partner—a person they know they can trust and who is relentless to serve them and their clients alike. It's an awesome responsibility and one I take very seriously."
Internally, Mitchell's promise to his agents is that he will provide "more at bats" and "more opportunity" to close more deals than anywhere else, but there is one rule they must adhere to, says Mitchell: "They must do it our way!"
"We wanted to specialize in this niche," Mitchell says. "I didn't want to build a real estate company where we had rogue agents who did their own thing. I knew that if we created these platforms and provided the currency, our agents could close more business than they ever thought possible. If they do things our way, by buying into our culture and working closely with our partners, they will be given the opportunity to close more transactions than they ever dreamed of."
Evidently, Mitchell is right. Last year, the average agent closed 38 additional transactions from partnerships, which led to an average additional volume of $13.8 million in business, and $177,000 in additional GCI income.
According to Mitchell, the company culture is as good as it gets, as agents understand that when they close business, it makes the whole group look better to its partners.
"To be able to have an environment where almost every agent is closing more deals and making more commissions than ever before is a great feeling," says Mitchell. "Our agents recognize they are important because they know as they perform, it looks good for the entire group and, therefore, everyone roots everyone else on."

To that end, The Jason Mitchell Group doesn't accept just any agent to the team. They look for agents who are motivated to be successful in this industry and who will be accountable at all times to the company and to its partnerships.
"Our agents are accountable to our clients and their clients. Whether it's Rocket Mortgage or Zillow or Veterans United, it doesn't matter—they trust us to service their clients, and our agents need to understand that they will service that client at the highest of all levels," Mitchell says. "They must communicate at a high level, as an agent who understands the value of the experience. Most importantly, they must have the skills to close deals and to execute."
This is something Mitchell himself has never had a problem with, dating to his earliest days in the industry. As a marketing and finance student at Central Michigan University, Mitchell started his real estate career with Pulte Homes in 2002 as an intern.
During his four years at Pulte Homes, Mitchell was ranked the top-selling real estate professional, selling more units than other sales professionals within the organization.
Mitchell was later selected to the firm's "Top Gun" program at the age of 23, being the youngest of the 200-plus Top Guns at Pulte Homes. Mitchell continued to be a leader at the organization until he left the company in 2007 to pursue his entrepreneurial path in real estate, and shortly thereafter, ventured into the finance industry for several years. He entered back into the real estate profession in 2010, and a decade later, was named the Real Estate Agent of the Decade for all of Arizona.
"When I entered back into the real estate space in 2010, I had no plans of growing a real estate team across the country," Mitchell says. "My goal was simply to sell as many homes as possible and be the best real estate agent I could be."
From there, Mitchell was given an opportunity working with his first partner: Rocket Homes, formerly In-House Realty.
"I saw what working with large organizations can bring to the table, and the amount of business that could be had," Mitchell says. "I took that concept and started first by building a technology platform—an internal system and processes around servicing companies, not the individual consumer."
As this idea started to click, Mitchell realized there was a niche and that he could be on the cutting-edge of it.
"As we began to receive more and more opportunities, I knew we could scale this model so long as we had great agents who bought into the philosophy of servicing organizations and their clients," he says. "As we began to add better systems and more agents, I knew that if we kept the process as a centralized platform as we grew our marketplaces, we could become even more efficient."
The Jason Mitchell Group's mission-control team makes sure everyone is having the experience they deserve with touchpoints during and after the process.
"Think of our mission-control team as an air traffic controller—ensuring every client gets put into the right hands and that our referral ingestion and distribution process is spot on," he says.
"We collectively have put together all these systems and tools to make sure our agents look like superstars, and we do it at a super-high level. The key to success is to continue to build amazing technology to support our partners and to make sure we are executing at a high level in all of our markets and doing right by our partners."
That's why Mitchell is not one to rest on any laurels, and The Jason Mitchell Group continues to build out better processes, better systems and offer better training.
"We want our clients to know they are in the best of hands," Mitchell says. "My job is to make sure our clients and our partners get everything they need. It truly is a partner approach, and my job is to help them grow and help them do better."
The Jason Mitchell Group's model is now in place in 33 cities across the country, with 90 percent of its business coming from its great referral partners.
Today, despite the COVID-19 pandemic, Mitchell's team (at press time) is projected to sell $1.6 billion and complete over 4,000 transactions in 2020, ranking them as the top real estate team in the U.S.

"We've been very fortunate during COVID, and quite frankly, very lucky," Mitchell says. "With the extreme drop in the interest rate environment, it has led to many consumers understanding that now is a great time to buy real estate. Because of this, our influx of referrals from our partners has been significant, leading to a record amount of sales."
The goal for 2021 is to continue to expand the marketplaces for The Jason Mitchell Group and add high-quality agents where need be.
The future of The Jason Mitchell Group model certainly looks bright. With more and more organizations having a need for trusted real estate professionals, Mitchell and his team are poised to be the selected group for many years to come.
"For agents and marketplace leaders considering working with The Jason Mitchell Group, we welcome the opportunity to speak with you and see if we would be a great fit," Mitchell says.

Great promo for recruiting here in Florida. Hope that it generates a few inquiries and an agent or two. We want to meet the goals for 2021 and nothing should stop us from being the top state in the company. Go Jason, bring home some more good recruits.


Who is Jason? Since Kindergarten, we knew our son, Jason, is different from his brothers. He always seems more hyper than them. At times, he shows strengths in intelligence, and at other times, he really shows difficulties in learning. Up to 1st grade, Jason was still able to do well in class. In second grade, the teacher has told us that Jason is having difficulties with learning specifically with reading and science. We decided to have him tested by the end of 2nd grade and he came back with having ADHD.
We put Jason on Play Attention through the summer at end of 2nd grade. Jason played 3 games, 15 minutes a day on a rotation of 6 different games. The games were simplistic at first but challenged him to stay focused in order for the game to work. This is where Jason had to learn to concentrate and to focus. With the variety of games and the different gameplay as the games level up, it kept Jason engaged. Play Attention also has a reward system, where they gain points for good work. Points are traded in for things of 'your' choice. Jason loves trading in points for 1 day off of no work and study.
Whether the game helped in Jason doing better in grades is still in question. But we have definitely seen signs of Jason understanding about himself. When Jason is able to understand his weaknesses, he is able to communicate this with us. This to us makes the game worth it.

The Democrats Take Georgia
Documentary filmmaker Jon Ossoff (D), left, is poised to defeat incumbent Sen. David Perdue (R) in the Georgia runoff elections. Rev. Raphael Warnock (D) is projected as winner over appointed Sen. Kelly Loeffler (R).
Jan. 6, 2021 — In a rather surprising finish, it appears the Democrats will win both of yesterday's Georgia runoff races and clinch a 50-50 majority in the US Senate (with Vice President-elect Kamala Harris's tie-breaking vote).
Rev. Raphael Warnock (D) has been projected a 50.6 percent winner over appointed Sen. Kelly Loeffler (R) to claim the special election, while documentary filmmaker Jon Ossoff (D) is poised to defeat incumbent Sen. David Perdue (R).
The races are extremely close, as correctly predicted in polling. Rev. Warnock's margin is currently 53,430 votes from a current turnout of 4,401,162 votes with a projected 98 percent of the vote reporting. The Ossoff spread is even closer. He leads Sen. Perdue by 16,370 votes of 4,401,064 cast ballots, a margin of 50.2 – 49.8 percent. The latter race has not been declared, but it is clear, when looking at where the outstanding ballots remain, that Ossoff will increase his percentage.
The runoff campaigns, made necessary under Georgia election law that requires majority support to win office, came down to a turnout battle within the evenly split state. Democrats did just slightly better than Republicans in getting their votes to the polls, and that made the final difference.
It is likely that the African American vote that appears key. In the early voting trends, black voter participation comprised an estimated 32.6 percent of the voting populace in the runoffs versus 29.8 percent in the regular election. Clearly, this increase was enough to change the outcome of both campaigns. In the regular election, Sen. Perdue missed winning outright by just one-quarter of a percentage point, and the entire Republican special election field outpolled the entire Democratic candidate group by just over 47,000 votes.
We clearly have a record voter turnout for this Georgia runoff election. In the past, these types of contests have produced drop-off rates of approximately one-third of the number of people who voted in the regular election. In this 2020 runoff, understanding that the numbers will increase by approximately 90,000 more votes when all ballots are processed and counted, the turnout will likely reach in the neighborhood of 90 percent of the total number of people who voted on Nov. 3.

Georgia Runoffs Underway Today
Jan. 5, 2021 — At long last, the 2020 US Senate election cycle will end today, and the determination of which party will hold the chamber's majority for the next two years will likely become known late tonight.
To recap, Sen. David Perdue (R) and documentary filmmaker Jon Ossoff (D) battle for the in-cycle seat with the winner being awarded a six-year term. The special election winner, the race between appointed Sen. Kelly Loeffler (R) and Rev. Raphael Warnock (D), will serve the final two years of the term that resigned Sen. Johnny Isakson (R) won back in 2016. The seat will be in-cycle for the full six-year term in 2022.
The 2020 regular election outcome, current polling, and the early/mail voting count all suggest very close results to unfold this evening.
To re-cap:
2020 Regular Election Tallies – Nov 3, 2020
Seat A
Sen. David Perdue (R) 2,462,617 49.73%

Coasting on Trump's Coattails?
Dec. 11, 2020 — When examining 21st century electoral behavior, in an overwhelming number of states, we find that voters are choosing the US Senate contender of the party whose presidential candidate carries their particular electorate, and the 2020 vote is mostly no exception to such a premise. This pattern allows the various presidential nominees to develop political coattails and potentially bring in additional members of his party to both the Senate and House.
In November, the only state where voters swayed from that pattern was Maine, where Pine Tree State voters broke 52-43 percent in favor of Democrat Joe Biden at the top of the ticket but returned to the Republican column to re-elect Sen. Susan Collins by a 50-42 percent margin. And, as we will see when examining the data below, in the 2020 presidential race the coattail margin was not as determinative as it has been in other such campaigns during the past 20 years.
Though not legal victories in the sense that the first-place finisher did not obtain the office sought, the two Georgia Senate elections did yield Republican "wins," if you will, since the GOP candidates finished ahead of their Democratic counterparts in a state that President Trump failed to carry.
Remember that all of the Georgia races finished with razor-thin margins, so the pattern is not particularly definable. While President Trump was losing to Biden by just 12,670 votes of 4.998-plus million ballots cast, Sen. David Perdue (R) outpaced Democrat Jon Ossoff with an 88,098-vote spread, and the aggregate special election Senate Republican vote total was 47,808 higher than the combined Democratic sum.
The patterns of how the Senate Republican candidates fared with President Trump leading the ticket are interesting in that they don't yield a consistent flow. In the 35 Senate races from 34 states where such elections were conducted, President Trump carried 19 of the states hosting Senate races as compared to 15 for Mr. Biden. Simultaneously, Republican candidates placed first in 22 of the 35 Senate races.
In 10 of the states hosting a Senate race where President Trump won, the Republican Senate candidate, though winning in all 10 of those instances, ran behind the top of the ticket by an average of 2.2 percent. Conversely, however, in nine other states that President Trump won, he fell behind the GOP Senate candidate by an average of 2.8 percent.
Turning to the 16 states hosting Senate elections that Joe Biden carried (counting Georgia twice because of their two Senate campaigns), President Trump ran ahead of the losing Republican Senate candidate in nine states by an average percentage factor of 1.9, while he ran behind the losing Republican in four, and then behind the winning — or first-place — Republican in three more. In these latter situations, the deficit margin was 1.8 percent.

Georgia Senate Races Unfold
(Sen. David Perdue Ad)
Dec. 9, 2020 — We are over halfway into the Georgia US Senate runoff campaigns that will decide the national legislative body's majority and it is clear that political prime time will determine the winners. Election Day is now less than a month away and the start of early voting begins next Monday, Dec. 14.
Setting the political table, the Republicans have a slight advantage coming from both Nov. 3 elections. GOP Sen. David Perdue (see ad above) placed ahead of Democrat Jon Ossoff (see ad below) by 88,098 votes but came up a quarter of a percentage point shy of obtaining the majority support necessary to win. In the 20-candidate field for the special election, when adding all of the Republican candidates and comparing that tabulation to the Democratic aggregate, we see the GOP holding a 47,808 vote edge.
(Jon Ossoff Ad)
The combined Georgia Senate runoff elections are sure to set a spending record once the campaigns end on January 5th. Already, according to the AdImpact marketing organization, as the Daily Kos Election site and Bloomberg Government reports, over $300 million has been spent since the beginning of these runoff campaigns.
(Raphael Warnock Ad)
A total of $170 million has been expended in the special election campaign, for example. Between the two candidates, Democrat Rev. Raphael Warnock (see ad above) has outspent Republican Sen. Kelly Loeffler (see ad below), $60 million to $45 million, but outside groups supporting the appointed incumbent have more than made up the difference, outlaying $53 million as compared to $13 million from left-of-center organizations.
(Sen. Kelly Loeffler Ad)
Democrats have run approximately 42,000 commercials as compared to the Republicans' 33,500 during the runoff period even though the latter party and its allies have spent more. Because the right-of-center organizations have dominated the non-candidate spending, and the cost to run such ads is greater than for an individual candidate's committee, the monetary imbalance is thus explained.
Polling predictably shows a close race with virtually every study finding all four contenders within the polling margin of error, as a listing of the latest post-November 3rd election surveys reveal:
Senate – A
Trafalgar Group (Dec. 1-3; 1,083 likely voters)
• Jon Ossoff (D) 48%
• Sen. David Perdue (R) 47%
Survey USA (Nov. 27-30; 583 likely voters)
RMG Research (Nov. 19-24; 1,377 likely voters)
Insider Advantage (Nov. 16; 800 likely voters)
Remington Research Group (Nov. 8-9; 1,450 likely voters)
Senate – B – Special Election
• Sen. Kelly Loeffler (R) 50%
• Raphael Warnock (D) 45%
V-Creek/AMG (Nov. 10; 300 likely voters)
The campaign messages are also well defined. Sen. Perdue continues to emphasize the national negative themes that appeared to work well for the GOP in the down ballot races: socialism, defunding the police, packing the US Supreme Court, raising taxes, and illegal immigrant voting.
Ossoff has been concentrating his ad messages on COVID and what he claims are Perdue and President Trump's failures in handling the issue. His latest ad linked below features film of former President Barack Obama at a rally for the Democratic candidate, along with Ossoff's wife, Dr. Alisha Kramer, who is a physician.
Turning to the special election, the Loeffler and Warnock campaigns have been trading attacks, counterattacks, and defensive messages.
Rev. Warnock hits Sen. Loeffler on her controversial stock transactions, while she responds with an aggressive hit about him being an extremist who calls the police "thugs" and once invited Fidel Castro to speak at a church where Rev. Warnock was an assistant pastor. Warnock responds with the linked ad that shows him walking his dog and disposes of the animal's excrement in a reference to characterizing the Loeffler attacks.
In the end, the races will come down to which side can better deliver its base votes to the polls. Turnout will be robust but certainly well under the 4.952 million people who originally voted in the Perdue-Ossoff campaign, the larger turnout figure from the two Senate contests.
At this point, the races' conclusion is uncertain, but Republicans should still have at least a slight advantage heading into early voting period and the election itself. Such a premise is based upon past voting history even in this politically changing state, and the original vote margins recorded on Nov. 3.

Attack of the Attack Ads
(Sen. Perdue Ad)
Nov. 17, 2020 — All four Georgia Senate runoff candidates are already hitting the airwaves with new messages that telegraph just where they want their campaigns to head in the final weeks of 2020 political overtime.
As you know, Sen. David Perdue (R) faces Democratic challenger Jon Ossoff for the in-cycle six-year term, and appointed Sen. Kelly Loeffler (R) opposes Rev. Raphael Warnock (D) in the special election to fill the final two years of resigned Sen. Johnny Isakson's (R) final term. Loeffler was appointed when Isakson left office at the end of 2019 for health reasons. Both contests will be decided on Jan. 5.
The outcome will decide the Senate majority. If the Democrats sweep the two races, they will become the majority party because the new vice president, Kamala Harris, will break the 50-50 tie. If Republicans just win one of the two, they will maintain their current majority status, albeit smaller, at 51-49. Winning the pair means the GOP will have only lost a net of one seat in the 2020 election cycle as their majority would register 52-48.
Sen. Perdue set the tone of his runoff effort with a new ad (top) that highlights Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) saying, "when we (meaning the Democrats) take Georgia, we will change America." The Perdue ad defines "the Schumer-Pelosi-Ossoff" change as "defund[ing] the police, voting rights for illegal immigrants, and making Washington, DC the 51st state." The message then quotes Ossoff as saying, "change is coming to America." The ad closes with the narrator saying, "believe them. Vote Perdue to stop them."
Ossoff responds with an ad (above) solely devoted to COVID-19. The media consultants found virtually identical COVID related statements from President Trump and Sen. Perdue, and then runs their audio consecutively in an attempt to tie the two together. The ad closes with the narrator saying that "David Perdue ignored the medical experts, downplayed the crisis, and left us unprepared."
The special election is taking a much different tone. Challenger Raphael Warnock, the Baptist minister who pastors the church over which Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and his father once presided, Ebenezer Baptist in Atlanta, re-visits Sen. Loeffler's controversial COVID related stock transactions and creates an ad around this subject (below).
The script says Sen. Loeffler, "after receiving confidential briefings on Coronavirus immediately starts dumping stocks …making sale after sale and getting rid of $3.1 million before the market crashed." The tagline ends with the narrator saying, "Kelly is for Kelly. Warnock is for us."
The ad, of course, makes no mention of Sen. Loeffler's transactions being investigated and cleared by the Securities and Exchange Commission, but it is more than probable that we will be hearing that part of the story in future Loeffler campaign communications.
Sen. Loeffler launched a hard-hitting new attack centered around her theme, "saving the Senate is about saving America." The ad attacks Rev. Warnock for "calling police thugs and gangsters, host[ing] a rally for Communist dictator Fidel Castro, and prais[ing] Marxism in speeches and writings." (below)
(Sen. Loeffler Ad)
With the campaign battle lines being drawn early in this two-month runoff campaign, we can expect this type of hard-hitting rhetoric to continue all the way to the Jan. 5 election as both sides attempt to motivate their base voters to return for the runoff.
The last time we saw a US Senate runoff in Georgia – Georgia and Maine are the only two states that require general election winners receive majority support – occurred in 2008 when Sen. Saxby Chambliss (R) was forced into a secondary vote. The circumstances were similar. Sen. Chambliss placed first in the general election but, like Sen. Perdue, finished just a few thousand votes under the 50 percent threshold (49.8 percent). This forced Chambliss and his opponent, Democrat Jim Martin who received 46.8 percent, into a Dec. 2 runoff election of that year.
Sen. Chambliss prevailed in the runoff with 57.4 percent of the vote. In that year, 3.752 million people voted in the general election with 2.138 million returned for the runoff election for a drop-off rate of 43 percent. In 2020, a total of 4,945,702 individuals cast a vote in the Perdue-Ossoff Senate race, while the figure was approximately 37,000 people lower for the special election, 4,907,872. While a drop-off from the 2020 general election is expected, political intensity suggests it will likely not be as high as we saw in the 2008 US Senate runoff campaign.

Shania Twain recently revealed she has been suffering from Lyme disease. As she prepares to release a new album, Twain reveals how the disease required extensive speech therapy and vocal training.
Shania Twain was riding high in the early-2000s, coming off the smash success of the hit-packed Come On Over and the release of Up!, which topped Billboard's album charts and got her booked to perform at the Super Bowl.
Then she saw the small bug.
"I saw a tick fall off me," Twain recalled in a phone interview Thursday.
The Canadian country-pop music superstar was bitten by the tick in Norfolk, Va., and started immediately experiencing symptoms that threatened her performances.
"I was on tour, so I almost fell off the stage every night," said the Timmins, Ont.-raised singer-songwriter.
"I was very, very dizzy and didn't know what was going on. It's just one of those things you don't suspect."
Twain sought treatment and was subsequently diagnosed with Lyme disease, a tick-borne bacteria that leads to flu-like symptoms and can spread within the body.
For Twain it resulted in dysphonia, a vocal cord disorder that eventually left her unable to sing for a while and forced her to undergo extensive speech therapy and vocal training.
With a confessional new single on the charts — Life's About to Get Good, off her upcoming album Shania Now (due Sept. 29) — Twain is talking for the first time about personal issues including her Lyme battle.
Though she was diagnosed right away, she didn't realize until recently that it was Lyme that led to her vocal issues, which audiences first learned about on the 2011 docu-series Why Not? With Shania Twain.
"It took all these years to determine that," said Twain. "Then it was all about, 'Now what do I do about it? How can I fix it?' So that took several years, just working out what therapy would work for me, without even knowing how well it would work in the end.
"But with perseverance and determination, I was able to record the album and I was able to tour. Getting through all of that, I'm encouraged now and I feel like I can tour again and I'll make more records. So I'm feeling really successful with that challenge."
The five-time Grammy Award winner cautions nature lovers to be vigilant about searching for ticks.
"Normally it can attack your nervous system or the vital organs — heart, liver, kidneys, nervous system. It's a debilitating disease and extremely dangerous. You can't play around with it, so you've got to check yourself for ticks."
Twain said she counts herself lucky that she saw the tick fall off her, noting many people don't.
Twain is one of several celebrities who have spoken out about their experience with Lyme disease, including fellow Canadian Avril Lavigne, Alec Baldwin, and former US President George W. Bush.

Q: Manually getting the output instead of output redirection in cmd line I have a C++ program which has the prototype of the main function as follows:
int main(int argc, char * argv[])
The code hasn't been written by me, but this is a single C file available here.
When I compile this code, and through the command line run it as:
someexe in.txt > out.txt
This gives me an output out.txt which is generated in the same directory by operating on some input from in.txt.
someexe in.txt out.txt
This gives me an output on the command line itself. (without using > operator)
However, instead of passing the command line argument and without using the output redirection > operator, I have been trying to call the main function from another function and passing the parameters myself. If I pass an array of char* {fileDirName, in.txt}, I am not sure how to go about generating an out.txt (since I think > output redirection is an operating system level function available in command line).
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated
The program in the link is readily available as copy paste and can be tried (main function is written at the last in the above program)

A: You can't call another main() from inside the source another program - main() is special.
If you want to reuse this source code as a library you need to rename main() to something else.
However if it is handling input from either a pipe or a file (eg myprog < input.txt or myprog input.txt) in the normal Unix way then that's a little trickier to handle transparently.
The best way would be to call the compiled program as a separate process from within your new program, passing the correct commandline parameters -  see the exec() family of calls

A: Assuming the aim is to mimic the output redirection feature (> out.txt) of the shell you can do something like:
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <assert.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <iostream>

int main() {
  int fd = open("out.txt", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_TRUNC, 0660);
  assert(fd >= 0);
  const int ret = dup2(fd, 1);
  assert(ret >= 0);
  std::cout << "Hello redirected world!" << std::endl;
  close(fd);
}

You can do similar for stdin also, to mimic the input redirection (< in.txt). These will be preserved across calls to exec() too.
Of course it would be simpler to modify the program to write to the place you wanted given you have the source available.
Note though that dup2(), which "swap" the stdout fd for the one we just opened is non-portable. IIRC open() (as opposed to fopen()) is UNIX specific also)

The Time-to-Point Ratio in Splendor
Yesterday I introduced the Time-to-Point Ratio using Lords of Waterdeep as an example, but the game that really made the concept clear to me was the new game Splendor from designer Marc Andre and publisher Space Cowboys. First, I must just say I love this game. It's an elegant engine-building race to 15 points. Here's a good tutorial of how to play.
Usually whoever reaches 15 points wins, though there is a chance of any close stragglers catching up on their last turn. Because there is no hard limit on the number of rounds like in Waterdeep, Splendor is a little trickier to reverse-engineer. Fortunately all the cards have been structured in a very regular cost-to-reward structure, which can be converted to this basic rule of thumb:
Each card requires a number of turns equal to its cost.
The whole game is built around breaking that rule, compelling you to build an engine that lets you to buy cards faster, more cheaply, for greater reward, or simply removing them from the market so an opponent can't take them. So let's look at the cards you can buy and their relative costs.
Usually, costs are structured so that every card costs a resource matching another card's color. For example, in the cheapest cards: Red costs White, White costs Blue, Blue costs Black, Black costs Green, Green costs Red. These patterns vary, but within each reward-category, a five-pointed cycle is always embedded in the cost structure.
First Level Ratios
3 for 0 Points: Two to Three Turns
1 / 2 for 0 Points: Two to Three Turns
1 / 2 / 2 for 0 Points: Two to Four Turns
1 / 1 / 3 for 0 Points: Two to Five Turns
1 / 1 / 1 / 1 for 0 Points: Two to Three Turns
4 for 1 Point: Two to Four Turns
These cards are the most varied in cost and can fundamentally shape the engine you'll end up with at the beginning of the game. All of them take at least two turns to save up for and buy. They run the gamut from super-cheap to absurdly over-priced, but because every card will usually not come into play, sometimes you've no choice but to take the sub-optimal option.
Second Level Ratios
2 / 2 / 3 for 1 Point: Three to Six Turns
5 for 2 Points: Three to Five Turns
3 / 5 for 2 Points: Four to Seven Turns
1 / 2 / 4 for 2 Points: Three to Five Turns
6 for 3 Points: Three to Six Turns
Beyond first-level, it's a little trickier to figure out the time-to-point ratio of each card since technically these might take only one turn to buy, if you've built up your engine well and the cards have come out in your favor. The ratios above are based on the default game state at the start of play, before building your engine and assuming you are able to take two chips at a time on your turn every turn.
Third Level Ratios
3 / 3 / 3 / 5 for 3 Points: Four to Six Turns
7 for 4 Points: Four to Seven Turns
3 / 3 / 6 for 4 Points: Five to Seven Turns
3 / 7 for 5 Points: Five to Six Turns
These cards are priced under the assumption that you've already built a sizable engine to spend as little as possible for the most points. In some cases, like a two-player game, it would be impossible to afford a 7-cost card without and engine already built. There just isn't enough basic currency.
It's also clear now that costs with as few types of colors are best, especially if they're even numbers.
Noble Ratios
4 / 4 for 3 Points
3 / 3 / 3 for 3 Points
Nobles are odd in that they are based on how many cards you've purchased, putting them one further degree of separation from the baseline economy. I do find it interesting that they all give the same reward, though. This might be a mercy to the players since calculating variable cost and variable reward at this level would be too much of a brain-burner.
Design Takeaways
Splendor uses very regimented costs and rewards throughout the card deck, to the extent that there is a five-pointed web dictating that X-color card will always cost Y-color of resource. It's a great example of how to begin with a crystalline distribution, then use the vagaries of random draws and engine-building to add lots of texture. It's a fantastic game and a wonderful design. Bravo, Marc André!

Healthy life expectancy in Africa grows by nearly 10 years
© UNICEF/Karin Schermbrucker
Since 1995, South Africa has made substantial progress in transforming its health sector, making primary healthcare services available to millions who were previously denied access.
Healthy life expectancy among Africans living in mainly high and upper middle-income countries on the continent, has increased by almost 10 years, the UN health agency, WHO, said on Thursday.
The World Health Organization announced the good news after examining life expectancy data among the 47 countries that make up the WHO African Region from 2000 to 2019, as part of a continent-wide report into progress on healthcare access for all - a key SDG target.
Healthy life expectancy in the African region 🌍 has increased on average by 10 years per person between 2000 and 2019, a WHO assessment reports👏🏾 ➡ https://t.co/MqJhb8ZEPnpic.twitter.com/HAitiYmIam
— WHO African Region (@WHOAFRO) August 4, 2022
"This rise is greater than in any other region of the world during the same period," the WHO said, before warning that the negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic could threaten "these huge gains".
Healthier for longer
According to the UN agency's report, Tracking Universal Health Coverage in the WHO African Region 2022, life-expectancy on the continent has increased to 56 years, compared with 46 at the turn of the century.
"While still well below the global average of 64, over the same period, global healthy life expectancy increased by only five years," it explained.
The continent's health ministries should be credited for their "drive" to improve health and wellbeing among populations, said Dr. Matshidiso Moeti, WHO Regional Director for Africa.
In particular, the continent has benefited from better access to essential health services – up from 24 per cent in 2000 to 46 per cent in 2019 – along with gains in reproductive, maternal, newborn and child health.
Benefits of tackling disease
Considerable progress against infectious diseases has also contributed to longer life expectancy, WHO said, pointing to the rapid scale-up of HIV, tuberculosis, and malaria control measures from 2005.
Despite these welcome initiatives in preventing and treating infectious diseases, the UN agency cautioned that these gains had been offset by a "dramatic" rise in hypertension, diabetes and other noncommunicable diseases, in addition to the lack of health services targeting these diseases.
"People are living healthier, longer lives, with fewer threats of infectious diseases and with better access to care and disease prevention services," said Dr. Moeti.
"But the progress must not stall. Unless countries enhance measures against the threat of cancer and other noncommunicable diseases, the health gains could be jeopardized."
When 29-year-old Nonhlanhla discovered that she was both pregnant and HIV positive, she was frightened, but through antiretroviral treatment and uninterrupted breastfeeding, her six-month-old son, Answer, is healthy and HIV-free.
Resisting next global threat
Ringfencing these precious health gains against the negative impact of COVID-19 - "and the next pathogen to come" - will be crucial, the WHO official insisted, as the UN agency noted that on average, African countries saw greater disruption across essential services, compared with other regions.
In total, more than 90 per cent of the 36 countries that responded to the 2021 WHO survey reported one or more disruptions to essential health services, with immunization, neglected tropical diseases and nutrition services most badly affected.
"It is crucial for governments to step up public health financing," WHO insisted, adding that most governments in Africa fund less than 50 per cent of their national health budgets, resulting in large funding gaps. "Only Algeria, Botswana, Cabo Verde, Eswatini, Gabon, Seychelles and South Africa" fund more than half of their health expenditure, it noted.
One of WHO's top recommendations to all governments looking to boost healthcare access is for them to reduce "catastrophic" household expenditure on medicines and consultations.
Households that spend more than 10 per cent of their income on health fall into the "catastrophic" category. Over the past 20 years, out-of-pocket expenditure has stagnated or increased in 15 African countries.

Putting up a show
Updated: Jan 01, 2020, 08:30 IST | Prachi Sibal, Shunashir Sen | Mumbai
Big-ticket artistes from different corners of the globe, Mumbai's debut Margazhi concerts, and plenty of other new sounds and moves are set to make it a heady 2020.

Coming in: January
Shernaz Patel and Sonali Kulkarni
Based on the Agatha Christie novel, The Mirror Crack'd from Side to Side, the international production Mirror Crack'd is set to take stage in Mumbai. Produced by NCPA, the play has been adapted for an Indian audience by Ayeesha Menon and features prominent names like Shernaz Patel and Sonali Kulkarni. It will have a long run until the second week of February.
Popping in to the city
Coming in: April
Khalid Donnel Robinson, who goes by the stage name Khalid, might not have looked like a high-school kid in 2016. But he was still only 19 when he released Young, Dumb and Broke, a platinum hit single about the travails of youngsters who are still in school. Since then, the now 21-year-old has gone on to release his chartbusting second album Free Spirit, which has won him a Grammy nomination in the 2020 edition. The American singer has also collaborated with a host of other stars such as Shawn Mendes, Billie Ellish and Imagine Dragons for Thunder, a monster hit. The musician will be making a pit stop in Mumbai this April while on a tour of Asia. Be there to catch one of the biggest pop stars in the world right now in action.
Coming in: February
A veteran synth-pop band from the UK, Hot Chip has been in the business of making people swoon to their music since the early 2000s. Formed by a bunch of friends who met in school at Putney, their songs have evolved over the years from straight-up dance music to something more layered. They will be headlining a festival in Nashik in February. That same fest had brought down Justice, a premier French electronic act, last year. And with Hot Chip, the organisers have kept up their form because though it's a big-ticket act, few people would have expected them to play a gig in India, which incidentally was the same case with Justice.
Dancer-choreographer Astad Deboo is back this year with a unique new performance. He is teaming up with Korean music group Noreum Machi and Carnatic musicians MC Manunath Praveen Kumar and Varijashree Venugopal. The untitled music and dance production developed in Berlin, will see Deboo respond to both sounds with choreography.
Illenium is an American DJ who has made a name for himself not just with his singles and collaborations with acts such as The Chainsmokers, but also for remixing tracks of hit acts like Lana Del Ray and Florence and the Machine. He will make his India debut at a primarily electronic music festival in Pune in February. Expect a substantial dose of EDM, though unlike many other dance DJs, Illenium also lays emphasis on actual lyrics. Either way, don't forget to put your dancing shoes on while attending the gig.
Sounds from Madras
Catch a glimpse of Margazhi, the December music and dance festival from Chennai, right here in the city. The day-long Margazhi Mahotsavam, will feature Carnatic music performances, lecture demonstrations and a South Indian canteen for flavours from the south. Some of the performers include vocalist Alamelu Mani, mridangam artist Umayalpuram K Sivaraman and violinist A Kanyakumari.
Trevor Noah will speak now
The comedian, actor and producer Trevor Noah is touring with his show Loud and Clear 2020 and will make a stopover in the city. The show has much acclaim to its credit including an Emmy Award. He is known to take on political subjects in his unique satirical style and this may well be the comedy show to look out for this year.

Views on the structure of future rounds of UK support for renewable schemes are being sought by the government. Minister in charge of renewables, Charles Wardle, claims the Non-Fossil Fuel Obligation (NFFO) is a fundamentally sound mechanism for weaning the industry. In particular he believes the competitiveness encouraged by the NFFO mechanism has been instrumental in bringing down the price of renewables towards convergence with the market price for electricity. But he adds there is always scope for improvement. "We will be inviting views from trade associations and other collective bodies on the framework for NFFO 4."

Plant-Based Diets in Central Europe and the COP27 Food Focus
Plant-Based Diets in Central Europe and the COP27 Food Focus6 min read

In Central Europe, Civil Society, Opinion
Plant-Based Diets in Central Europe and the COP27 Food Focus6 min read2022-11-302022-11-30https://lossi36.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/logo_original_big-1.pngLossi 36https://lossi36.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/featured-images-wp-1-1.png200px200px
For the first time, the climate change summit COP hosted several pavilions devoted to food. For example, the UN Food and Agriculture Organization's Pavilion agenda considered the food shortages that are likely to occur if governments remain on the same path. Another pavilion, Food 4 Climate, was led by animal welfare organisations and openly discussed plant-based diets, among other food-related topics.
One's diet, if multiplied by millions, represents a significant way to slow down climate change, for instance by limiting the carbon and methane emissions of livestock. The latter is a highly potent greenhouse gas that increases global temperature. There are other benefits to plant-based diets, such as the lower prices of plant products over fish and meat or health.
In Central Europe, plant-based diets are gradually becoming more popular, influencing how younger generations turn to ethical and eco-friendly solutions. The urgent global warming situation creates mobilisation potential to accompany and relay bottom-up democratic changes in countries where politicians sometimes deny the scope or the very existence of climate changes.
There is not much data on plant-based diets among the populations of Central Europe. In general, the number is trending upwards, as is the presence of plant-based products and dishes in restaurants. However, this cannot be mistaken for an accurate count as to how many Central Europeans actually follow a plant-based diet. There are also few surveys. They highlight that the percentage of the population that eats a fully plant-based diet is quite low. In Poland, 6% eat a plant-based diet, while in Czechia, Slovakia, and Hungary, it is only 4%, compared to up to 10% in Germany.
These percentages increase when less strict definitions are followed, such as the flexitarian diet where only some meals are plant-based. In Poland, up to 24% of the population can be considered flexitarian. Together with the 6% who are entirely vegetarian or vegan, this means that almost a third of the population consumes some variation of a plant-based diet. The estimates are lower for Czechia and Hungary. While there may be more products available for consumption, it is likely that the traditional meat-based cuisine is holding fast there.
Global and regional reasons for eating green
Up until the 20th century, the majority of the Central European population was plant-based (mostly turnips, beans, peas and potatoes) because meat was expensive and relatively scarce. The rapid increase in living conditions in the last few decades made many people associate meat with high material status. Today, those turning to plant-based diets in the region are generally a part of the X, Y, or Z generations, as youth aged 19-30 are the most likely to follow a strictly vegan diet. The only exception is Hungary where people aged 46-60 dominate in this regard.
With that in mind, it is interesting to look at why people opt for a plant-based diet in the first place, as prices and accessibility of alternatives to meat are no longer driving such choices. According to Euromonitor, the "global key drivers for a plant-based diet are animal rights (37%), health (36%), and environmental concerns (35%)."
In Hungary, health reasons influenced those following a plant-based diet after age 45. In contrast, younger and stricter vegetarians and vegans cited animal welfare as their main rationale, which is consistent with the origins of veganism. In Czechia, where younger generations are overrepresented among those with plant-based diets, "92% of vegans mentioned personal convictions and the role of values such as compassion, solidarity, [and doing] good…" while "approximately 43% of vegans mentioned [a] natural and healthy lifestyle."
There are additional demographic factors to consider. In Hungary and Czechia, women almost triple the number of men among vegans and vegetarians. This makes veganism more resilient against pressure from family members to eat meat, since global studies have revealed that "teenagers receive support for their dietary decisions mostly from their mothers."
Education also matters, as vegetarians and vegans tend to be among the highly educated. While this may seem a barrier at first, it is important to note that plant-based diet decisions generally arise outside an official university curriculum. In Czechia, for example, ""to online information including social networks and socialisation" were the most important means influencing one to become vegan or vegetarian. Online platforms are collectively used among youth, and no barriers exist to the information being promoted there. This potential for change represented by the young generation could be leveraged by favouring plant-based diets and integrating them in schools and educational curricula. Such policies might act as a vehicle to make citizens more environmentally conscious and supportive of further similar policies.
Socialisation is important to provide orientation and exposure of plant-based friendly information which can then be converted into actionable messages. If the latter get integrated into the discussion with non-plant-based eaters, they could impact the approach of others towards food.
Toward an integration of plant-based food in climate strategy
While data for Poland and Slovakia are missing for more in-depth comparisons, the number of plant-based diets will likely grow among the younger generations of Central Europe as a whole. In the next 15 years, food choices may become increasingly linked to environmental considerations. In the short term, high inflation can act as a factor to spread plant-based diets, especially among flexitarians. This is hard to predict, however, especially at a time when there are signals that meat alternatives are stagnating, possibly replicating the "margarine effect" in plant products.
What is clear is that Central European governments are missing an opportunity for their long-term climate strategy unless they list facilitating plant-based diets among youth as their priority and responsibility. Should they not do so, resorting to individual ethical decisions for saving the planet may convert youth into radical activists and discourage plant-based choices on a bigger scale.
One way these messages can be spread at a wider level is through government support. Beating the drum of favouring plant-based diets should not be associated with a threat to national cultures and cuisines. A strategy could be a sustained public campaign to prevent plant-based diets being associated with a minority group. Trendy food firms creating plant-based products — for example Burger King — can also be beneficial to create easy alternatives to meat and fish. Governments could also invest in long-term measures to support transition to plant-based farming in an animal-friendly way. Finally, they could indirectly or directly encourage the creation of small and medium enterprises and innovation projects in that sector.
Despite its recent integration into the worldwide summit COP27, long established food systems have a ways to go to become sustainable. Central European countries should therefore consider the plant-based food options as representing a quick gain for the future of climate policies.

Q: Should I be worried about rumors that Apple will stop using Google Maps in iOS6? Almost every major news media outlet is reporting that Apple will stop using Google Maps services in iOS6. I don't think anyone really knows what exactly the changes are, when they will be rolled out, how Apple will implement them and if Google or Apple will start charging money for their services. As a result of these uncertainties, I am having trouble making a sound decision on whether I should or should not release a new public bus tracker app that I have been working on for over a year now. I have had the initial hard deadline set for June 15, 2012. I know that the best thing to do is to wait and see what the changes will be and how Apple will implement them. But I am a bit impatient and stressed out about pushing the release date as any further delay will affect many of my other plans in a very significant way.
More information on the app:
It provides real time public transit information based on information it obtains from a third-party transit agency's API. It heavily depends on the iOS MapKit framework and iOS location services to display current geolocation of buses on a given route in realtime and to provide transit information between two locations. According to Apple, the iOS MapKit framework uses Google services to provide map data. Some features invoke the Google Maps app to provide transit planning and turn-by-turn directions to nearest stops.
My question:
If the rumors turn out to be true, do you think Apple will most certainly implement any changes without affecting apps that already use the current MapKit framework?  What kinds of potential problems should I be prepared for?

A: I agree with Omar that Apple will probably work quite hard to make sure MapKit isolates developers from breakage.  But, there will be some problems.
The first problem I see is usage of undocumented features of Google Maps.  Undocumented doesn't necessarily mean the same thing as Private APIs, which it's pretty hard to sneak into the app store (although not impossible).
For example, this technique for opening Maps with a URL, to display routes.  This is different than using MapKit, but it still could be an issue for some apps.
The second thing I see are potential legal issues associated with Google Maps.  If I remember correctly, there are Google geocoding web services, that allow free usage, so long as you display the results on a Google map.  Currently, iPhone maps are Google maps (Maps.app or MapKit maps).  In the future, they map not be.  If your app relies on a back end that uses Google geocoding services, you may have some rework to do.
Anyway, the majority of maps-related code should not break.  I just wanted to give a couple examples of where there could be problems.
Update: also, there have been reports that the new Apple Maps are inferior to Google Maps in a few ways.  Although it might still work, if your app is doing something like routing to an address, you might find that Apple's new maps app does a poorer job of finding the location you give it.  So, in order to work as well as it used to, you may need to refactor your app to use coordinates, rather than addresses.  Again, little things might turn out to make a difference here.

A: From the experience I have with SDKs, I can tell you that: no, you will not need to worry, for a couple of reasons:

*

*Apple is well known to maintain backward compatible updates.

*The Map Kit API is encapsulated and it should not change at all.

*Even if the techniques of achieving maps and routes changes, Apple will still keep the same interface to access these functionalities.

*Most of low level functionalities of any SDK are encapsulated, their public interfaces (that we developers have access to) are stable and should not change.

*A break in these interfaces must be very difficult to even think about.

*Change the lower level of implementation will not change the public interface of the Map Kit API.

*Even if the interface changed, Apple will still leave the old interface and add deprecation metadata to them. These interfaces will still work, and other interfaces maybe added.

The only potential problems is that you will need to think about are when you are going to update your app, and that would be on whether to implement the new functionalities that the new Map Kit may provide.


Roller coasters are best defined by the words 'Adrenaline Rush'. They are fantastic, teeth-grinding, seat-grabbing and heart-pounding rides that almost everyone loves. They are every bit fun as they are nerve racking. You either love them or hate them, there is no in-between; and this list is specifically for those who just can't resist riding a roller coaster at an amusement park. Below is the list of some of the best roller coasters from around the world.
As of right now, this roller coaster at Six Flags is the tallest roller coaster ride in the world. With a height of about 456-feet and a 90 degree ascent and descent, this coaster is sure to make your heart skip a beat. It reaches speeds of up to 128 mph; that's more than 200 kmph! If that isn't fast enough, the next fastest thing is a special coaster that is part of this list. Kingda Ka goes so high up that it can be seen from miles away. If you love roller coasters but can't deal with heights, skip this one.
What makes this rollercoaster from Nagashima Spa Land unique? This heart-pounding ride goes on for a whopping four minutes! That's four minutes of seat-clenching action at approximately 150 mph. It was opened to visitors in the year 2000, the year of the dragon. With a whopping 2,479 feet of track, this coaster has everything from camel humps and figure eights to a stunning 30-story drop; pure heaven for roller coasters enthusiasts.
The Twisted Colossus is another coaster that takes you on a four minute long thrill ride. It is the world's longest hybrid roller-coaster with two barrel roll inversions. At 4,990 feet-long and made with a wood-steel amalgamation, it combines old school techniques with new world tracks and technology. Then there's the exciting bit of twin roller coasters going side by side. Didn't understand what we mean, go check it out for yourself.
This ride at Ferrari World Abu Dhabi has a top speed of 240 kmph. That's not the speed of an F1 car but it sure is fast. What makes this ride special is that it makes you feel like you are indeed sitting in an F1 car and its hydraulic launch systems propel you to 100 mph in under 2 seconds. If you can handle the 1.7Gs of force and love to go fast, this speed-coaster is one for the speed-demon in you.
The Big One, formerly known as Pepsi Max Big one, is a part of Pleasure Beach Blackpool's roster of rides. Take a seat in this old school thrill ride and you'll be treated to two huge camel humps with top speeds of 120 kmph. Many more exciting coasters have been launched since, but the Big One will forever be an icon to coaster enthusiasts.
This ride at Fuji-Q Highland is all about those death-defying drops. This coaster opened about 20 years ago and made it to the list of top exciting roller coaster rides in the world. With top speeds of 130 kmph, those countless drops coupled with sudden and extreme twists will make you fall in love with roller coasters and your Japan holiday all over again. It is simple, exciting, extreme and a total scream-fest; something that every coaster lover will love to ride over and over again.
The world out there is filled with exciting and thrilling roller-coasters.

It is another threat to national integration. It means an irrational caste loyalty towards one's own caste.
This blind loyalty compels an individual or group to fulfill the interest of their own caste or sub-caste at the cost of other caste or sub caste. They want to achieve socio-economic, political and other interests through politics or by using political power. It is defined as the loyalty to the caste translated into politics.
Caste system divides the entire society hierarchically. The higher and lower divisions of caste groups are reflected in their status and role. So, some groups feel superior than the other groups. That creates conflict between higher castes and lower castes.
Caste plays an important role in politics. When candidates are selected for the election, the higher authorities use caste as the basis of selection. Political parties are also formed on the basis of caste like DMK, AIDMK, Akali Dal etc.
Marriage restriction is the main reason for casteism. It is a restriction which compels each caste group to have feeling of separatism.
Development in the means of communication provides facility for easy communication. So, the members of a caste group can easily communicate with each other and they can also assemble together in one place to discuss matters related to their caste.
1. It hampers unity and integrity.
4. It hinders economic progress.
5. It is an obstacle to social progress.
1. Attempts must be taken to achieve the goal of caste-less society.
2. Inter caste marriage should be encouraged.
3. Attempts should be taken to remove social and cultural inequality.
4. Caste should be separated from politics.
5. Importance should be given to human values.
4 Consequences of Casteism –Discussed!

Here's the Spring 2011 lookbook for ALLEN B. by designer Allen B. Schwartz, a collection exclusive to JCPenney that's always trendy, young, fun - and really affordable. For spring, the vibe is an unlikely '80s-boho mashup, featuring peasant blouses, leggings, cropped jackets, dresses and all flavors of denim, from colored to dark skinnies to lightwash straight-leg. Slim cargos and maxi skirts also make an appearance as do bold prints, from florals, to stripes to polka-dots. The styling is highly questionable but I think there are moments of potential, like the neon/neutral gladiator sandals, the puff sleeve denim jacket, the striped moto jacket or the one-shoulder polka dot dress. Shop these spring looks now and in the coming weeks at JCPenney stores and jcp.com.
oh my gawsh that maxi skirt!!! i am going to own that.
Very nice! I agree with Lala. The maxi skirt needs to be in my closet immediately. Lol!
I saw this all in person and it looks better on screen....I tried soem of it on and it just looked awkward. I didnt see that maxi skirt though.
oh my gawsh, that is saaad to hear! at least you can't speak to the maxi i am in love with...bah for the pieces you saw.
I LOVE the striped jacket and the gladiators...the rest is very cheap looking to me.
I see some really great pieces in there! I have to say that I can hardly contain my excitement for the fishtail braid the model is sporting! It really brings back the 80's (early 90's) for me!!
Like yellow dress number 1 and LOVE the black cropped jacket - but the styling is...different. Lol.
