While exploring other languages, and frameworks, I found that I tend to miss some of the tooling that Rails provides. In some cases I've leveraged what was in that community, and in others I've tried to bring across some tools of Rails. While building a web application in Clojure, I wanted an asset pipeline so that I could use familiar tools such as SASS for stylesheets along with Compass, Bourbon, Neat and Groundwork for style libraries.
Let's take a look at how an asset pipeline can be applied to non Rails projects. We'll start with Rails itself, work our way down, and build it back up again.
The asset pipeline in Rails was extracted into a Gem sprocket-rails, which has the Rake tasks, URL helpers for Rails applications and the configuration for the Rails conventions of where files are, and how to handle them. More information on configuring Rails applications can be read in the asset pipeline guide. This is included by default when you depend on the Rails gem.
The sprockets gem is where the work takes place. Work such as compiling assets, creating digest files and manifests of output. It also includes directives such as
During my efforts to use Sprockets in Clojure, I did come across sprockets-standalone but I think with a little work, an application could just depend upon sprockets alone to build the assets.
Sprockets integrates with various libraries such as the YUI Compressor binding or Ulgifier binding to minimize and compress Javascript and CSS. Both of these tools ultimately depend upon a Javascript runtime such as Rhino or Node.
The sprockets gem does include Rack, Coffeescript and other compilers your non Ruby application may be interested in, so let's go one level deeper.
Sass is a library which extends CSS to include variables, mixins and other fun stuff, and it'll compile those files into CSS. It also supports compression which can be used in Rails through the
rails-sass Gem, and configured using
sprockets-rails for a Rails application.
Now Sass was originally written in Ruby, but now also has a C/C++ port called libsass.
Putting it back together again
There are broadly two ways to start using these tools in a non Ruby application: use some Ruby through either Rake, another Ruby based build tool or a custom Ruby script; or use a non-Ruby build tool like Grunt. This can prove to be slightly problematic as I found out. With new features introduced with new versions of both SASS and Compass, it can be troublesome to know which versions you need for your application to all work together.
I had originally started using Rake, but also explored Grunt, and I'll detail what I found here.
A note on dependencies
You may see that the dependencies include Rails like
app/assets/stylesheets paths. This is a consequence of some of these libraries being built for Rails almost exclusively. Looking at Bourbon, it's Rails by default although it does show how to use it without Rails. Neat only shows how to run on Rails. If you compare that to Groundwork, it has a project which is just the framework, and another for the Rails implementation. I think this is a better approach, although a little more work for the maintainers.
Dependencies with Bundler
I had used Bundler to install dependencies, but now needed to know where the dependencies were installed into so I can add certain files onto the SASS load path. I'm sure there's a way to programmatically use Bundler, but I shelled out to get the paths to load.
The Gemfile includes the libraries I want to include:
gem 'bourbon'
gem 'neat'
gem 'compass'
The Rakefile adds those to the build path:
require 'sass'
bourbon_path = `bundle show bourbon`.strip
Sass.load_paths << File.expand_path("#{bourbon_path}/app/assets/stylesheets")
If you're installing dependencies into a vendor path, you'll know where these files end up and won't have to shell out to figure that out.
Dependencies with Bower
My Bower dependencies included the Stylesheet libraries I wanted to use. Notice I'm using
compass-mixins which is a Github repository which is a fork of Compass to make it available to Bower.
"dependencies": {
"bourbon": ">=3.1",
"neat": "1.1.0",
"compass-mixins": "latest"
Then in the Rakefile, I could load those paths.
require 'sass'
Sass.load_paths << File.expand_path("bower_components/bourbon/app/assets/stylesheets")
Now the paths are setup, we can compile. I'm using sprockets-standalone, but with a little extra work this could be use Sprockets.
require 'sprockets/standalone'
Sprockets::Standalone::RakeTask.new(:assets) do |task, sprockets|
task.assets = %w(application.css)
task.sources = %w(resources/sass)
task.output = File.expand_path('resources/public/assets', Dir.pwd)
task.compress = true
task.digest = true
This gives the
assets:clean and the
assets:compile Rake tasks, which compile and fingerprint the assets.
Bower + Grunt
Now with Grunt, we can use the Bower dependency as outline above. The Grunt plugins for the moment tend to favor small single use plugins so I found one grunt-contrib-sass to compile the SASS, and grunt-asset-fingerprint to add a MD5 based fingerprint to the file name.
module.exports = function(grunt) {
// Project configuration.
pkg: grunt.file.readJSON('package.json'),
sass: {
dist: {
options: {
loadPath: [
files: {
'resources/public/assets/application.css': 'resources/sass/application.sass'
assetFingerprint: {
options: {
algorithm: 'md5',
manifestPath: 'resources/public/assets/manifest.json'
dist: {
src: ["resources/public/assets/application.css"],
dest: "resources/public/assets/application.css"
// Default task(s).
grunt.registerTask('default', ['sass', 'assetFingerprint']);
What have we learnt? We've taken what I think is a pretty important part of developing and productionising a web application, and made it available to other consumers. Let's be honest, Rails makes this look easy, but when we've pealed back the layers we can see it's doing a lot for us. Making it available to non Rails code bases requires some work, but once setup it shouldn't require much tweaking. We've also seen that others have replicated some aspects such as fingerprinting of the files.
I think we've also learnt that we shouldn't be so afraid of exploring other frameworks, and rolling your sleeves up and figuring how how something works under the hood.
My other take away is that library maintainers should consider the wider community that a current framework that may be targeted. Looking at Bourbon and Neat, both projects are Rails centric, whereas Groundwork is agnostic but layers on a Rails specific gem for those consumers. I think that's a nicer approach to adopt.

Assessment of Murine Colorectal Cancer by UHF Ultrasound using 3D Reconstruction and Non-Linear Contrast Imaging
"Utilizing the Vevo2100 to assess orthotopic colorectal cancer in mice has proven instrumental to our data quality. Instead of using endpoint-only data for our studies, we are now able to collect high-resolution longitudinal data, making sure to capture responses to treatment that otherwise would have been missed. The true value lies in the fact that we can collect data that is giving us tumor VOLUMES rather than just tumor areas, enabling us to know more about the tumor morphology. And using non-linear contrast combined with microbubbles we are able to further investigate the vascularity of the colon as a whole as well as individual tumors. Knowing how those tumors recruit vessels to feed them and if our treatments can influence this vascular recruitment may be the key to finding worthwhile therapies."

MacFarlane gets Oscar-hosting advice from Crystal
LOS ANGELES - Despite getting advice from Billy Crystal and working as hard as he can to prepare to host the Academy Awards, Seth MacFarlane thinks his hosting gig is a "one-off" and that he'll be "flayed by the press" no matter what he does.
Speaking to reporters Tuesday from the Dolby Theatre, where he'll host the 85th annual Oscar ceremony on Feb. 24, the entertainer was alternately confident and self-deprecating.
"I'm not feeling a lot of pressure from myself," he said. "There is sort of a comfort in knowing that no matter what you do, you're going to get the same reactions in the reviews. So I could put on the worst or the best show in the world and I will still be flayed by the press."
Still, he said he's spent five months trying to strike a comedic balance that will satisfy the fans of his animated shows and the comparatively highbrow audience inside the Dolby Theatre.
"I've set myself up for the hardest job in the world because the fans of 'Family Guy' and 'Ted' and the shows and whatnot that I do are expecting one thing. If I deliver that, this crowd will walk out," he said.
He promises to add bite to the show -"The whole point of their bringing me on was to give it a little bit more of an edge"- but acknowledges there will be a lot of ego in the audience.
"You have a room full of people who are at the top of their game - they're successful, they're being honored, they're attractive - and yet this is also the group with the thinnest skin on the planet," he said, "so it's a tough group."
Ultimately, he hopes to hybridize the pointed barbs of three-time Golden Globes host Ricky Gervais with the classy style of Crystal, who hosted the Oscars nine times, most recently last year.
The 39-year-old entertainer said Crystal gave him some helpful advice, including "get comfortable with your shoes before you go on stage."
MacFarlane will sing during the show and is also a nominee for his original song for "Ted," but said he expects to lose the category to Adele.
He's aiming for "very much a classic Oscars with a much more current edge," and said, "It's impossible to work any harder than I have in preparation for this," but he still doesn't think he'll be invited back.
"This will probably be the only time I'm asked to do this," he said. "It feels like a one-off. But I'm still thrilled to be doing it. It's going to be a lot of fun. I will very much enjoy having done it once it's over."

A number of San Francisco car service startups have been cited for "violations of the Public Utilities Code" by the California Public Utilities Commission, the state agency that regulates taxis and limousines. The companies have until December 3, 2012 to respond, or they can pay $20,000 in fines.
In a Wednesday statement (PDF) the CPUC charged Lyft, SideCar, and Uber with "operating as passenger carriers without evidence of public liability and property damage insurance coverage in effect and on file with the CPUC," and "engaging employee-drivers without evidence of workers' compensation insurance in effect and on file with the CPUC."
"That is unsurprising to me, based on the law," Jordanna Thigpen, the former deputy director of the San Francisco Taxi Commission and now attorney with Cotchett, Pitre, and McCarthy, told Ars. "Those are quite large fines. I've never heard of such fines."
SideCar and Lyft were served a cease-and-desist by the CPUC last month, which they have ignored. On its blog, SideCar dismissed the citation, which was filed and served on Tuesday. (Ars profiled SideCar and Lyft back in July.)
John Zimmer, Lyft's co-founder, told Ars that his company had no plans to stop operating, and it would oppose the citation through the CPUC's appeals process.
"We are not a charter-party carrier, we are a peer-to-peer carrier," he maintained. "I think it's clear to everyone that the current framework doesn't fit modern technology and possibilities."
These companies all continue to argue that they are not traditional transportation services companies because they neither own cars nor employ drivers—rather, they claim they are a sort of middleman that connects passengers with drivers.
In a blog post that also included the official citation, Sidecar's CEO Sunil Paul compared the CPUC's citation to "saying Airbnb is a hotel chain, that Travelocity is an airline, or that eBay is a store. We established SideCar to allow drivers and passengers to connect with one another under the safe harbor of the ridesharing provisions of the law."
Thigpen noted that these cases will likely need a judicial ruling on what it means to be a transportation company or to provide transportation services.
"'Providing'—what does it mean?" she added. "[These startups have] obviously spent a lot of time reading and re-reading the transportation code and the PUC code. Obviously it's going to turn on this issue—what is the definition of 'providing'?"
San Francisco taxi drivers file class-action lawsuit against Uber
In a related case, Uber, the San Francisco smartphone-driven car service startup, has been served with a class-action lawsuit filed on behalf of two local taxi drivers. Uber has faced a series of clashes with local regulators, but this new case marks the first time a class-action suit has been filed by cab drivers directly.
"The taxicab drivers in San Francisco are hurting—basically that's the purpose of the action," Gary Oswald, the plaintiffs' attorney, told Ars.
He added that since Uber's launch in San Francisco two years ago, all cab drivers had lost money due to what he called "unfair" competition, but he declined to put a precise dollar figure on it.
Uber, distinct from SideCar and Lyft's business models, works with already CPUC-licensed drivers rather than people who are essentially moonlighting as a not-quite taxi driver.
"The question from the CPUC with regards to Uber is only whether Uber should be licensed as well, double-regulating us on top of our already-regulated transportation partners," Travis Kalanick, the company's CEO and founder, told Ars. "Our contention is that if you read the regulations, such a notion doesn't make sense. Are we supposed to give drivers a second drug and alcohol test? Are we supposed to have cars inspected by the DMV a second time after they've already inspected our partners' vehicles already?"
In the lawsuit, which was filed on November 9 but announced publicly on Wednesday, the plaintiffs argue that black cars and limousines are regulated by the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) at the state level and the San Francisco Municipal Transportation Authority (SFMTA) locally. Specifically, the suit cites California's Business and Professions Code Section 17200, which forbids "any unlawful, unfair, or fraudulent business act." The suit also argues that Uber "significantly interferes with the business of the legally authorized taxicab drivers," who make up the class.
The SFMTA did not immediately respond to Ars' request for comment with respect to the case. Uber, for its part, maintains that it is law-abiding—its terms of service state in all-caps (we'll spare you):
The company does not provide transportation services, and the company is not a transportation carrier. It is up to the third party transportation provider, driver or vehicle operator to offer transportation services which may be scheduled through use of the application or service. The company offers information and a method to obtain such third party transportation services, but does not and does not intend to provide transportation services or act in any way as a transportation carrier, and has no responsibility or liability for any transportations services provided to you by such third parties.
Will the transportation services companies please stand up?
This is a line of reasoning used by other similar San Francisco startups like Sidecar and Lyft.
"Uber complies with all laws and regulations applicable to its business. Any claim to the contrary is baseless and motivated by those who seek to deprive the public of this safe and convenient transportation option," John B. Quinn, the company's counsel, told Ars in a statement. "Uber would rather compete for business on the streets of San Francisco than in the courtroom, but Uber will defend these claims in court and is confident of the outcome."
A judge has yet to rule on this fundamental question that seems to persist nationwide: whether Uber, Sidecar, Lyft and other similar companies are actually transportation companies.
"Essentially Uber doesn't think that the rules apply to it," Oswald added. "It doesn't have a license and what it's doing requires a license. There's only one group of people here who do have such licenses, and they're the cab drivers in San Francisco, and they're impacted. If you don't like the rules, change the rules—don't ignore them."

The American Heart Association's Guidelines for Women
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a leading cause of death of American women. Are you at risk? The American Heart Association (AHA) offers a way to classify the likelihood of developing CVD—one that goes beyond the Framingham global risk score. The Framingham score places women in categories (from high risk to optimal) based on factors like age, total cholesterol, and blood pressure. The total score has been to calculate a woman's 10-year risk of developing the disease. The problem with this is that a low score does not necessarily reflect risk over the course of a lifetime.
With that in mind, the AHA recommends doctors take a more comprehensive view of cardiovascular risk. Adding to the Framingham score, doctors should examine the person's medical and lifestyle history, family history of CVD, as well as other genetic conditions. The AHA aims to tackle heart disease in women by evaluating lifetime risk and determining the most appropriate preventive measures. The goals also include more aggressive tactics for those at high risk.
AHA's classification focuses on 3 categories: high risk, at risk, and ideal heart health. Women in the "high risk" category have one or more of the following:
- Established coronary artery disease (CAD)
- Cerebrovascular disease, which can lead to a stroke
- Peripheral artery disease (PAD)
- Abdominal aortic aneurysm
- Chronic kidney disease
- Diabetes
- A high 10-year Framingham global risk score (over 10% chance of developing CVD)
Those "at risk" have one or more risk factors for CVD:
- Smoking
- Elevated or high blood pressure
- Dyslipidemia (cholesterol problems or high triglycerides)
- Obesity
- Poor diet
- Physical inactivity
- Family history of CVD
- Metabolic syndrome (a combination of elevated blood sugar, cholesterol, blood pressure, and being overweight)
- Evidence of subclinical (asymptomatic) vascular disease, such as coronary calcification
- Poor exercise capacity on treadmill test and/or abnormal heart rate after stopping exercise
- Systemic autoimmune collagen-vascular disease, such as lupus or rheumatoid arthritis
- History of pre-eclampsia, gestational diabetes, or pregnancy-induced hypertension
Women in the ideal heart health category have ideal cholesterol, blood pressure, body mass index, and fasting blood glucose values. A healthy diet, physical activity, and not smoking are also characteristic of those in this category.
There are also stroke risk factors that are sex-specific or more common in women such as:
- The use of birth control pills
- The use of hormone replacement therapy
- Atrial fibrillation
- Migraine headaches with aura
- Depression
- Emotional stress
Making Changes for Your Heart
The AHA recommends these lifestyle changes to prevent CVD for all women:
- Do not smoke and avoid secondhand smoke. If you do smoke, talk to your doctor about strategies to quit.
- Get at least 150 minutes a week of moderate exercise or 75 minutes a week of vigorous exercise.
- Eat a healthy diet that is rich in fruits, vegetables, and fiber. Twice a week try to include fish in your diet at least twice per week. Limit saturated fat, trans fat, sugar, and sodium.
- Drink alcohol only in moderation. Women should have no more than one alcoholic drink per day.
- If you are overweight, talk to your doctor about strategies to lose weight. Try to maintain a healthy weight for you.
Current Disease
If you have high cholesterol, talk to your doctor about taking lipid lowering medications and omega-3 fatty acids. Your doctor should also screen you for depression.
In addition, if you have recently suffered a cardiovascular event, such as angina, heart attack, stroke, or peripheral artery disease, or have had heart surgery, undergo a comprehensive rehabilitative program to manage your condition and lower your risk of recurrence or other future complications.
At Risk for CVD
There are many additional interventions available if you are at risk for CVD. The AHA recommends:
- Aiming for an optimal blood pressure reading (<120/80 mmHg) and taking blood pressure medication if needed
- Aiming for healthy cholesterol levels (talk to your doctor about what ideal levels are for you) and taking cholesterol medication if needed
- Controlling diabetes with diet, exercise, and medication
- Starting aspirin therapy or other medications if your doctor recommends them

Lack of Walks is an Organization-Wide Problem
Maybe it's the reactionary, instantaneous nature of modern fandom, but if you asked me, I'd tell you that the Chicago Cubs have been the worst team at taking walks for the past 20 years.
It's always a problem,* and this year is no exception – the Cubs are last in all of baseball in walks taken.
It's a problem that seems to transcend coaches and even personnel at the Major League level, so, it's fair to ask: what's the deal?
Well, it looks like the deal might be an organization-wide problem. Take a look at some frightening stats (as of August 8th) for the Chicago Cubs' minor league affiliates:
- AAA Iowa ranks last out of 16 teams in the Pacific Coast League with 353 walks. The top team in the league (Tacoma) has 515.
- AA Tennessee ranks 8th out of 10 teams in the Southern League with 361 walks. The top team in the league (Jacksonville) has 464. The bottom team in the league (Mississippi) has 353.
- High A Daytona ranks 9th out of 12 teams in the Florida State League with 333 walks. The top team in the league (Bradenton) has 446. The bottom team in the league (Clearwater) has 285.
- A-ball Peoria ranks 15th out of 16 teams in the Midwest League with 297 walks. The top team (Lansing) has 431. The bottom team in the league (West Michigan) has 286. (Stats compiled by dfnowak at NSBB.)
It would be reasonable to conclude, based on these stats, that the Cubs' organization does not place an emphasis on plate discipline and taking walks, something many of us have suspected for years.
It's also possible that the Cubs, when drafting, do not focus on the kinds of players who come pre-packaged with plate discipline. Perhaps they believe this is a skill that hitters learn in professional ball? If so, that belief does not appear to be borne out in the numbers.
*Except for an aberrant 2008 season, in which the Cubs led the NL in walks (second in baseball), and – total coincidence, the Cubs might tell you – they scored the most runs in baseball.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Here's the rap on the presidential candidates' plans for cutting federal deficits: Mitt Romney's is too bold and the numbers don't add up, while President Barack Obama's is too timid and his numbers don't add up, either.
As the government closed the books Sunday with a $1.1 trillion deficit for the year, which required borrowing 32 cents for every dollar it spent, budget analysts have little confidence in either man's plan to address the accumulating debt, now at about $16 trillion.
The Republican nominee promises to balance the budget in eight years to 10 years, but he also offers a mix of budgetary contradictions: higher Pentagon spending, restoring cuts that Democrats made in Medicare and an absolute refusal to consider tax increases.
To fulfill his promise, Romney would require cuts to other programs so deep — under one calculation requiring cutting many areas of the domestic budget by one-third within four years — that they could never get through Congress.
In other words, it wouldn't work.
Obama claims more than $4 trillion in deficit savings over the coming decade. But it you peel away accounting tricks and debatable claims on spending cuts, it's more like $1.1 trillion. Republicans say it's even less because of creative bookkeeping used to mask spending on Medicare reimbursements to doctors.
The accounting gets tricky, but the biggest faults with Obama's math are his claims of more than $2 trillion in savings from earlier budget deals with Republicans and an additional $848 billion in savings from winding down of the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.
"You can't find a $4 trillion number," said Douglas Holtz-Eakin, a conservative who once led the Congressional Budget Office.
Obama promises relatively small cuts of $597 billion from big federal benefit programs such as Medicare and Medicaid over the next decade while proposing tax increases of $1.9 trillion that he couldn't push through Congress when Democrats controlled both the House and Senate.
Obama's performance on the deficit should be his Achilles heel. The deficit has exceeded $1 trillion each year on his watch. He gave a cold shoulder to his own special deficit commission. Whatever efforts have occurred over the past two years to curb the deficit have come under pressure by Republicans.
"The American people see the financial chaos. They know it must stop. They know their families are at risk, and that their country is in danger," Sen. Jeff Sessions, R-Ala., said in a recent GOP radio address. "Yet the president does not rally the country to action. Instead, he says our debt course is nothing to worry about."
Romney offers a set of principles and promises rather than a detailed plan. He pledges to shrink the government to 20 percent of the size of the economy, as opposed to more than 23 percent of gross domestic product now, by the end of his first term. The Romney campaign estimates that would require cuts of $500 billion from the 2016 budget alone.
Romney proposes saving hundreds of billions of dollars over the coming decade by following House Republicans' plan to sharply cut federal spending on Medicaid health care for the poor and disabled, and turn it over to state governments. He pledges to cut the federal workforce by 10 percent.
But Romney also promises large budget increases for the Pentagon and rejects a plan by his running mate, Rep. Paul Ryan, R-Wis., that endorses more than $700 billion in cuts to Medicare that were made as part of Obama's health care law. Social Security is off the table.
That means big cuts to what's left over: nuts-and-bolts government agencies including the FBI, Federal Aviation Administration and Border Patrol; programs such as food inspection and space exploration; and popular subsidy and benefit programs for farmers, veterans and college students.
The liberal-leaning Center on Budget and Policy Priorities calculates that Romney's budget outline could require a one-third cut in domestic programs by 2016, excluding Social Security and Medicare, to make the math work. By 2022, such programs would have to be cut by more than half.
"You have to have large cuts in the rest of the non-defense budget, very large cuts," said Paul Van De Water, an analyst at the budget think tank. "Whether it's politically and practically achievable is subject to question."
Romney also is light on details on his tax cut proposal.
He says he wants to cut rates by 20 percent, but won't specify how he'll find the $5 trillion required to pay for it. For all the rhetoric of tax loopholes and cleaning up the tax code, finding that kind of money would require looking at popular deductions and tax breaks for the middle class. Those include deductions for mortgage interest, charitable contributions and state and local taxes, and breaks for college savings, employer-paid health insurance and families with children.
Tax experts say he could very well come up short.
Obama's budget has a lengthy and detailed mix of initiatives. But other than raising $1.4 trillion over a decade by allowing George W. Bush-era tax cuts on family income exceeding $250,000 to expire, they're mostly small-bore ideas.
There's little in the way of political danger. For instance, his budget would permit the cost of both Medicare and Medicaid to double over the coming decade. He offers cuts to health care providers, but asks no sacrifice from beneficiaries.
In private negotiations last year with House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, that failed, Obama displayed some willingness to take on Medicare's problems by raising from 65 the age to qualify for benefits. A "grand bargain" to get the debt under control would require him to go further.
"What he's put on the table is insufficient to get us to the goal," said Robert Reischauer, a former Urban Institute president and one-time director of the Congressional Budget Office who is one of the trustees for who oversee Social Security and Medicare. "He's going to have to ramp up the game after the election if he really wants to stabilize the debt in a reasonable length of time."
EDITOR'S NOTE — Associated Press writer Andrew Taylor has covered Congress and fiscal policy for The Associated Press since 2005.

Drunk driving arrests
Local law enforcement agencies combined to make a pair of recent arrests for operating while intoxicated (OWI).
Chippewa County Sheriff Deputies stopped a vehicle on Division Street Tuesday evening for swaying in its lane. A subsequent investigation resulted in the arrest of Mitchell W. Leszcynski, 61, of DeTour for OWI. He was also cited for driving while license suspended before being booked into the Chippewa County Jail.
Early today, Sault Police assisted Sault Tribal Police with a traffic stop near the intersection of Shunk and Saultier. Reports indicate the driver, Kenneth J. Younkers, 32, of the Sault was arrested for OWI; he was also lodged in the Chippewa County Jail.

Report: J.C. Penney dumps Martha Stewart
NEW YORK — J.C. Penney may be ending the tug-of-war with its nemesis for Martha Stewart.
The chain is reportedly dumping the Martha Stewart brand, after sales of the home maven's goods failed to live up to expectations. The move, reported by the New York Post on Thursday, comes as a judge is expected to rule in a lengthy court battle between J.C. Penney Co. and rival Macy's Inc. over whether Macy's has an exclusive right to sell some of her products.
The Post cited unidentified sources as saying that Mike Ullman, a former Penney CEO who returned to the top job this year, made the decision to drop Martha Stewart because of poor sales. CNBC has reported that Martha Stewart is saying that her company has no intentions of ending her deal with Penney. Meanwhile, emails seeking comment from Martha Stewart and Penney on the newspaper report were not immediately returned.
The move is the latest way Ullman is unraveling the botched bid by Penney's former CEO Ron Johnson to transform the retailer from dowdy to trendy. Since he took the job after Johnson was ousted in April, Ullman has been doing things like adding back some of the sales events and restoring basic merchandise that Johnson got rid of during his tenure.
Johnson, who became CEO in November 2011, signed a 10-year merchandising deal with Martha Stewart a month later and touted it as a key part of his plan to reinvent the chain. Penney also invested $38.5 million in a nearly 17 percent stake in Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia Inc.
A month later, Macy's, which had a long-standing exclusive agreement with Martha Stewart for such areas as cookware and bedding, sued Martha Stewart and Penney to try to block the deal. The two cases were consolidated for a bench trial.
Macy's is seeking to stop Penney from selling Martha Stewart-branded goods in kitchenware, bath and bedding, in addition to designs created by Martha Stewart that do not carry her name in those areas. Macy's also sought monetary damages.
Attorneys for Macy's, Martha Stewart and Penney presented closing arguments on Aug. 1 and New York State Supreme Court Judge Jeffrey Oing is expected to issue a final ruling in the coming days. It is unclear how this decision would affect the case.
The outlook for Martha Stewart merchandise dimmed after Oing issued a preliminary injunction in the summer of 2012 that barred Penney from slapping the Martha Stewart moniker on the goods that was covered by Macy's exclusive agreement until the final ruling was made.
Penney went ahead and ordered goods designed by Martha Stewart in the exclusive products but sidestepped the preliminary injunction by labeling them JCP Everyday. Penney also is carrying Martha Stewart branded items in party supplies and window treatments not covered by the Macy's contract.
During an earnings call with investors last month, Ullman didn't mention Martha Stewart specifically, but said that early feedback from customers regarding the home department made it clear that some of the merchandise was also too expensive. He also said customers want a more balanced assortment of trendy and traditional merchandise.
As a result, Penney is rejiggering its home merchandise. The company is also discounting: On its website, home merchandise is being discounted anywhere from 20 percent to 50 percent
Brian Sozzi, a retail analyst, said that the JCP Everyday items are too expensive for Penney's middle-income shopper. "You are paying a premium that looks like the stuff in Target," said Sozzi, CEO of Belus Capital Advisors.
Going forward, Sozzi said a big question is what will happen with Penney's stake in the company and whether it will try to sell it to another company.
Penney's shares rose almost 4 percent or 49 cents to $13.99, while Macy's stock was up nearly 2 percent, or 82 cents, to $45.62 in mid-day trading. Martha Stewart Living's shares were down nearly 6 percent, or 14 cents, to $2.32.

Ouch! Check Out Kim Kardashian's Swollen Feet!
Ouch! No one needs to walk a mile in Kim Kardashian's shoes to know that looks painful.
The seven-months pregnant reality star was photographed in Los Angeles on Thursday showing off super swollen feet.
Kardashian, 32, squeezed her feet into some clear stilettos and we're having sympathy pain just looking at these pics of the ankle straps cutting into her flesh!
Kanye West's girlfriend has not been shy on Twitter in sharing her discomfort when it comes to this particular pregnancy problem:
Swollen feet or a new Givenchy tattoo? instagram.com/p/Y5v7XsuS0z/
— Kim Kardashian (@KimKardashian) May 4, 2013
On June 2, Kardashian will be having her baby shower in L.A. and invitations went out this week to a select group of pals. According to E! News, the lavish invites were in music boxes that, when opened, played a special tune as a wind-up ballerina twirled.
That's one way to ask for a charity donation, right?
