BOREHAMWOOD, ENGLAND, April 20, 2011 (Press-News.org) Ernest Jones has launched a Facebook page allowing the high street jewellery brand to create a more interactive and personal relationship with its customers. By offering exclusive Facebook competitions and up to the minute trend stories that are not on the current website, Ernest Jones is allowing consumers into an exclusive group. In return Ernest Jones will incentivise consumers with competitions to share their comments and ultimately improve the relationship between retailer and consumer.
The current Ernest Jones retail website features seasonal promotions such as Valentine's Day and Mother's Day where hero lines and offers are promoted. The jewellery retailer also features an extensive list of luxury watch brands, an online brochure plus buyer's guides and news pages.
On the Ernest Jones Facebook page the brand will be showcasing exclusive features that will not be available on the main retail website. Since launching Facebook in November it has included a daily gift guide and a behind the scenes feature at the current wedding brochure photo shoot. Creating interesting and inspiring editorial features invites the consumer to be part of that world.
The Facebook page is intended to keep customers up to date with brand developments, and will also allow them to communicate with Ernest Jones if they wish to enquire or share their own information and stories about jewellery or watches.
Ernest Jones is proposing to use Facebook like many other retailers as a platform to develop interactive customer relations.
The jewellery retailer is keen to utilise Facebook in a way that goes above and beyond the extra mile for customers. Future ventures could include the Diamond and Watch specialist offering style and technical advice on engagement rings, bracelets and watches from trained industry experts.

MU researchers find missing link in plant defense against fungal disease
2011-04-20
Botrytis bunch rot, a disease caused by the fungal pathogen Botrytis cinerea, can devastate grape vineyards. Yet other plants can repel the invader and protect themselves by mounting a form of chemical warfare against the fungi through the production of antimicrobial substances, called phytoalexins.
Scientists at the University of Missouri report on a discovery in a key component in the signaling pathway that regulates the production of phytoalexins to kill the disease-causing fungus Botrytis cinerea.
"When the mustard plant Arabidopsis detects the fungus Botrytis ...
Spring-cleaning the mind?
2011-04-20
Montreal April 19, 2011 – Lapses in memory occur more frequently with age, yet the reasons for this increasing forgetfulness have not always been clear. According to new research from Concordia University, older individuals have reduced learning and memory because their minds tend to be cluttered with irrelevant information when performing tasks. Published in The Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology, these findings offer new insights into why ageing is associated with a decline in memory and may lead to practical solutions.
"The first step of our study was to ...

'3-D towers' of information double data storage areal density
2011-04-20
College Park, MD (April 19, 2011) -- Using well-known patterned media, a team of researchers in France has figured out a way to double the areal density of information by essentially cutting the magnetic media into small pieces and building a "3D tower" out of it.
This greatly enhances the amount of data that can be stored in a magnetic storage device and provides a method to reach beyond a wall of physical limits that the currently used technology is hitting. The team presents their findings in the American Institute of Physics' Journal of Applied Physics.

Rational, emotional reasons guide genetic-testing choices
2011-04-20
Consumers decide whether to use mail-in genetic tests based on both rational and emotional reasons, a finding that adds to a growing body of health-care behavior research on information seeking and avoidance, according to researchers at the University of California, Riverside.
In a study of what motivates or discourages consumers from participating in direct-to-consumer (DTC) genetic testing, UC Riverside psychologists found that potential users of the tests were influenced by perceived benefits and barriers to testing, and anticipated regret over testing versus not testing.

NJIT professor develops a biologically inspired catalyst, an active yet inert material
2011-04-20
NJIT Associate Professor Sergiu M. Gorun is leading a research team to develop biologically-inspired catalysis active, yet inert, materials. The work is based on organic catalytic framework made sturdy by the replacement of carbon-hydrogen bonds with a combination of aromatic and aliphatic carbon-fluorine bonds. Graduate students involved with this research recently received first place recognition at the annual NJIT Dana Knox student research showcase. http://www.njit.edu/news/2011/2011-101.php
