High-performance headphones need high-quality amplification to perform up to their full potential. If you connect them directly to the headphone jack on your computer, iPod®, or stereo receiver, you may be disappointed. A separate headphone amplifier sends a stronger, cleaner signal to your headphones. Add the magic of tubes to the sound of your music Plug the HiFiMAN EF2A into one of your computer's USB ports and prepare to be impressed. This compact digital-to-analog converter/headphone amp bypasses your computer's built-in DAC and audio circuitry processing your digital music files outside the noisy environment of your computer for far better sound quality. The EF2A's vacuum tube headphone amplifier brings your tunes to life, imparting smoothness and clarity. You'll hear more dynamics and detail that you can really savor on your headphones. The EF2A also includes an analog audio input so you can enjoy improvements in sound with another music source. This is one component that looks so cool, you'll absolutely want to show it off on your desktop. HiFiMAN's EF2A sports vacuum tubes for cool looks and hot sound.

We stay on top of new products and technologies to help people make informed choices. Features Overview: The HiFiMAN EF-2A is a hybrid USB headphone amplifier which combines vacuum tube sound quality with solid-state technology to deliver outstanding audio performance. The EF-2A has two inputs on the rear panel: a line-level CD input and a USB input. On the front, you'll find a 1/4" headphone jack, power switch, source switch (CD or USB), and rotary volume control. The EF-2A has a simple, but elegant, brushed aluminum faceplate and chassis. Vacuum Tubes: The EF-2A uses two 6AK5 vacuum tubes (equivalent to the Chinese 6J1) at the input stage to significantly improve the condition of the source signal. The tubes have a flat frequency response and a high signal accuracy. The tubes are packed separately inside the box, so you will need to install them through the provided holes in the acrylic top panel. When installed, the tubes protrude approximately an inch. Burr-Brown DAC: The EF-2A's USB input incorporates a Burr-Brown PCM2702E DAC (digital-to-analog converter) to improve the audio performance from your computer's headphone output. The DAC provides 16-bit/44kHz resolution, which is equivalent to CD quality. Power Supply: The EF-2A uses an external power supply instead of one that is built-in. This keeps the size of the headphone amp small, and prevents noise generated by the power supply out of the chassis.

In order to operate this unit at a listenable volume without dipping into the channel imbalance at the lower end of the volume knob, it's necessary to turn down the volume on the computer. Unfortunately, this decreases resolution and dynamic range, a compromise I should not be forced to make when using an outboard DAC. At first I chalked this issue up to the efficiency of my Grado headphones, but I recently bought some Sennheisers that are somewhat more difficult to drive. The problem was still present, albeit less pronounced. Again, I was pretty pleased with this thing. The build quality is great for the price point, and the sound is pretty good when used with my turntable and phono preamp. But, when feeding computer audio through the DAC or playing DVD audio through the RCA ins, the input signal is just too strong for the little thing. I believe this is also the root cause of some complaints I have read in other reviews about the bass/midbass range. I plan to perform some modifications soon that should alleviate the problem. Unfortunately, HiFiMan was unwilling to part with their circuit diagrams so I'm going to have to find a schematic elsewhere or reverse-engineer the thing. I probably would have given three stars, had HiFiMan customer service been a little more supportive. Pros: Great build quality for price, inexpensive entry point into tube amplification Cons: Too much gain! Poorly built circuit can't handle the inputs it was designed for. 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Gamechanger Written By Erik, Chicago, IL on Sunday, March 17, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) The tube amplifier is something I've always wanted to own but never had enough cash to actually venture into that market. The amplifier in this little guy is great. My headphones, Sennheiser HD-518's, now have the power to run free. My previous setup connected my headphones to the headphone jack on a receiver. This kind of setup lacked power which resulted in severe ear fatigue. This is why I bought this combo: to properly drive my cans. Now I'm able to listen, even at a high volume, for hours without any fatigue. The tubes themselves sound great. I would allow at least 50 hours of burn in time before you actually make an opinion on them. I'm over 75 hours now and they're still burning in, but sound great at this point. Consistent, clean power provides crisp highs, warm mids, and pounding lows. I've listen to everything from singer/songwriters to blue to jazz to electronica and everything sounds great. The DAC is great and is nothing more than I need. Most of the files on my computer are either 192/256/320 mp3 files. I also have a small collection of CD's stored on my drive. These are the albums I listen to the most. Honestly, if I'm working on some homework or browsing the web I can't tell the difference between Pandora, mp3's, and CD's. I have encountered a small amount of noise when I scroll my mouse wheel. After some troubleshooting I found that this interference comes from my other devices and not within the amp. I repeat, this is not within the amp. Pros: Tube warmth, power, design, and size. Cons: Interference with other usb devices 16 out of 17 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Def worth it Written By N703ick, Ashburn va on Wednesday, February 27, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Very good for the $$. Do not let the sound at first bother you. It can be tiny and no bass at first. After about 25-40 hrs of burn in on the tubes it will sound amazing. The volume is crazy, I like it loud and if you do to this is for you. Pros: Tube sound (need I say more), good volume level, solid build. Cons: Giant wall wort transformer plug. That's about it. 5 out of 5 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 A Super Headphone Tube Amp Written By Plainswind, Idaho Falls, ID on Saturday, January 19, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I picked one of these up because I wanted to experience the warm sound of tubes as well as having an amp dedicated to my headphones. This little gem works its magic with the music, movies and games that I listen to. The chassis is well polished and all components are built of sturdy material. The tube sockets are made of porcelain, which surprised me. The clear acrylic window lets you peer into the amp to see its inner workings. The components within are high grade and assembled neatly. (The capacitors and MOSFETs are not laying on their sides or at angles; resistors are installed neatly, etc.) Its tone was somewhat 'tinny' when first used, but over the several hours that I used it, its sound stage became true and full. (About 48 to 72 hours) The volume knob and switches are solid and the audio channels are nicely balanced. I have tried it on both Mac (Mountain Lion) and Windows 7 (64-bit) with no issues. The CD audio input works wonders as well. I have paired it with the Bose AE2 headphones. (I have also tried other headphones; the amp drives them all nicely.) Overall, the tubes add a richness to the sound as well as a delicate glow to the room. I'll be enjoying this little amp for years to come. Thanks to Crutchfield for their super support staff and as always, super service. Pros: Small, yet powerful. Catches the eye and has a rich sound stage. Cons: None! 9 out of 9 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 4 out of 5 Nice looking piece Written By JoshW, LEH, NJ on Monday, December 17, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) When I was browsing in Crutchfield's site, I spotted this little jem. I was looking for an amp for my headphones. I have this unit installed into my home entertainment system. The unit is displayed on my end table in the corner. It works great with my Bowers & Wilkins P5's. The sound is so clear and pure. I listen to alot of classical and jazz. The sound has improved from just pluging into my reciever, which is a Yamaha RX-V471. The sound is so rich and full of detail. The tubes give off a nice glow. The only cons I have with the unit is the usb connection. If you have a computer with terrible audio and your willing to make the HiFiman your primary sound card then fine. To warn you, there is no instructions and no drivers with the unit. You have to find the right suitable driver for the DAC chip installed in the unit. The owners guide has no direction, if you have issues just contact the manufacture. I use it as a direct connection to my entertainment system. It serves it purpose. Its great for late night movie watching and listening to music collection. Pros: Looks and sounds amazing Cons: USB DAC. No Drivers. Poor instruction manual. 14 out of 16 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 1 question already asked Are any drivers needed for this? Or is it just plug in and go? Where I work, IT is pretty strict about external installations. Thanks! [ Sean May 11, 2014 ] 6 answers Hello, i own one and i am very happy with it. Nice warm sound with Tubes when they get warmed up. You can Plug and Play, Ez Pz! i switch it from laptop to PC with ease, it will automatically get drivers and will switch to default(if not, ez enough to set it) [ ALEXANDER May 16, 2014 ] It's just plug and go [ Derek May 13, 2014 ] I am using my HiFiMan EF2A mainly with my home audio system by connecting it's left & right audio connections to the tape connections on my surround sound receiver. I did connect my HiFiMan EF2A to my new Apple iMac briefly, just to see if it worked, and it did--no problem. The computer recognized it while it was plugged in and it showed up on the "Sound" page in System Preferences. I had to select HiFiMan to use it and then go back and switch to iMac Internal Speakers when I was finished checking the HiFiMan, however. I didn't have to acquire any drivers for it to function on my iMac, but it's a new model and I don't know if another type of computer or an older model might require them. You might try calling the maker of the computers where you work and ask them. BTW: According to reviews online, the HifiMan EF2A is supposed to be a very good choice, for it's price, and I think it looks really cool. Not sure about the audio quality yet because it is new. It sounds all right so far, but it's a tube model and I understand from reviews that you have to burn the tubes for a number of hours before it is broken in. The sound is then supposed to improve quite a bit. (Supposedly one can get a "warmer " sound with tubes, as opposed to digital.) Also I am told you can try different tubes, including vintage ones, to tailor the sound to your preferences. The Tube Maze folks online are very nice and can advise you on the world of tubes. Hope this helped- [ George May 12, 2014 ] Just plug and go Sean. The sounds are great! [ BRIAN K May 12, 2014 ] It is pretty simple: plug and play. No driver installation is needed. [ Ryszard May 12, 2014 ] You will have to download a driver for the burr brown chip. When I plugged it in it automatically downloaded much like any USB stick would, no real huge software program, just a driver. Any setup is done through windows sound panel.

Well with this magic system you can play all your favorites on a 4-player system that uses authentic Super Nintendo Control Pads. It has the capability to play games from NES, Super NES, N64, Neo Geo, Gameboy Advance, Commodore 64, Sega Genesis, arcade games and more! It is cartridge free, and plugs into any TV with HDMI. Take it to any friends house, because this puppy is very portable! The secret is there is a mini computer inside of the Super NES that runs whatever classic games you choose.
I started with just an old Super Nintendo, and with about $200 and some time on my hands, I was able to turn it into pure gaming gold. You can do the same thing as well, just follow this instructable!
This console is:
• 4 player and super portable - have a gaming party at anyone's house!
• Cheap to build
• Able to use authentic SNES controllers (4 player with additional wireless controllers.)
• Solid State, no moving parts
• Cartridge-free! Store all your games on a SD card.
• Can be used in Modern TV's even if your real Nintendo is cannot be accepted by your TV.
• Going to make all your friends jealous ^_^
Check out a demo of the player right here:
The emulators I use are all 100% free. Keep in mind if you build your own player, it should be used for games that you legally own.
How well does the hot glue hold up over time? I want to do a similar project with the NES and I was worried hot glue would not hold my ports in place very well.
is there enough room for a ssd where your sd to sata adaptor is?
it seems to be quite hard to find mobo's with a cpu and psu for $100 right now...
Is the one I am looking at using for my version of this.
Another great site, albeit UK based, is http://www.mini-itx.com/store/boards
They have boards, accessories, and even 12VDC PSU
Keep Rockin' dude!, thumbs up!
I call bullshit
there is only 1.38mb on my sd card now???HELP???
On another note, could you use the original power switch of the snes? If not, is it a matter of space, or compatibility?
As far as the switches go, I could not use the power switch because it was a hard on off switch. Computers generally use a momentary push switch for their power button. The reset switch on the Super NES is a momentary switch, so I probably could have used that though. I am guessing that just about any switch that springs back to the off position should work.
do i do it on the snes or my pc?
Do you think it's possible to do the mod with a PAL console also?
I believe that a PAL console could possibly work, they were similiar size consoles. I think the US Super NES was a tad taller with it's "hump" in the middle though. I didn't make much use of this area, but certain motherboards have a taller heatsink that could possibly need that clearance.
Sorry about the slow reply, I haven't been around computers much these days. Yes, dos box should run fine with this sort of setup. The only downside is many dos games might have a hard time mapping to a joypad. You can always work around this by using a program like xpadder or joy2key that will turn gamepad controls into keyboard strokes. xpadder also maps mouse controls as well I believe.
Ram is what makes machines run fast, by accessing memory from the stick; it can load a saved file.
It's not a USB type of stick, it's more like a microchip. Buy one on Ebay or something,
RAM chips are basically over flow for a computer's hard drive. RAM chips provide extra memory (Which is mostly temporary) that helps relieve your hard drive's workload when you have a whole bunch of windows open at the same time. The extra memory makes your computerr run faster and allows you to run more windows at the same time without having your computer poot out.

The calendar has flipped to November and luckily, harvest is nearing completion. As of Nov. 3, USDA estimates 73% of the crop has been harvested. In 2012, 95% of the crop had been harvested by this date. The five-year average is 71% by Nov. 3.
Most states fall into the 70 to 80% complete range. Only Michigan, North Dakota and Wisconsin still have 50% or more of their crops to harvest.
For soybeans, 86% of the crop has been harvested, which is actually one percentage point ahead of the five-year average for this time of year.
Illinois, Iowa, Louisiana, Minnesota, Mississippi, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio and South Dakota all have 90% or more of their soybean crop out of the field. North Carolina is the furthest behind, with only 19% harvested.
According to more than 460 yield reports to AgWeb's Corn Harvest Map, the average yield from all the submitted yield reports (not weighted by associated acres) is hovering right around 171 bu./acre. These reports encompass more than 268,000 acres.
AgWeb's Soybean Harvest Map has received more than 330 submissions that cover more than 130,000 acres. The current national average for the map is 48.4 bu./acre.
Due to the government shutdown, USDA did not release its October Crop Production and World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates. It's September report pegs the national corn yield average at 155.3 bu./acre. For soybeans, USDA's yield estimate is 41.2 bu./acre.

CALGARY – His mother found the old Calgary Flames sweater recently, tucked away in a box in the attic. It was child-sized, perfect for the 9-year-old Jarome Iginla. It was given to him for his first minor hockey tryout, in St. Albert, just to the northwest of Edmonton, a gift by necessity from his grandfather.
St. Albert was Oilers country. The Oilers were in the middle of a four-titles-in-five-seasons dynasty in the mid-1980s, and St. Albert was theirs.

By now most of you are aware of the bad blood between Singapore's Young Lions and the Beijing Guoan (who doesn't, right?) But that ancient soccer rivalry got out of hand in front of a sell-out crowd of more than 800 last week when some rough tackling (the soccer kind) turned into even rougher punching and kicking.
Of particular interest: at about 2:20, a series of players from both benches join in the brawl, but come in feet first, attempting to kick opponents in the chest, rather than punch them in the face as most American basebrawl players would do.

Mattie was super friendly and provided excellent customer service during breakfast each morning. She was always smiling and just a joy to talk to. The breakfast was great also!
The front desk on the day of check could have been a little nicer. I was trying to get them to look up my reward points and print a receipt. They acted like I was bothering them. However, this was exactly opposite of the gentlemen who works nights, JustinGreat hotel, clean, comfortable, great breakfast. A little over priced to be a 2 star hotel, but it is the best in Buffalo. The customer service at night, Justin, was great. Mattie was excellent each and every time we saw her for breakfast. The only complaint is the two gentlemen at check out acted like I was bothering them when asking them for receipts and to look up my rewards points. They were having problems with their system, but still there is way to say everything and respond postitively to a customer's request.

Matt Bartolomei Selected As ECC Pitcher of The Week
Central Islip, N.Y.-University of Bridgeport junior right-hander Matt Bartolomei (Stratford, Conn./Norte Dame of Fairfield HS) has been selected as the East Coast Conference Pitcher of the Week for his outstanding performance during the week of April 18 through 24, 2011.
Bartolomei was perfect out of the UB bullpen in four relief appearances last week pitching seven innings without allowing a run as he went 1-0 with two saves. He permitted only four hits while striking out four and walking two and limiting the opposition to a minuscule batting average of .167 on the week. Matt had a hand in all three of the Purple Knights' one-run wins over Dowling saving an 8-7 road win on Wednesday with a perfect ninth inning, saving a 2-1 win in game one of a Friday doubleheader with a scoreless seventh inning and winning game two of that same twin bill with four innings pitched in the Purple Knights' 2-1 10-inning victory in which he allowed only four hits, fanned three and walked only one batter.
On the season, Matt has notched five saves and is 4-1 overall with 1.24 earned run average.

Acne.org was born in 1996, as a way for Dan to share his skin care regimen that cleared his skin. As more and more people started using The Regimen and clearing up, the site grew quickly. It is now a platform for people all over the world to share their experiences and opinions via our forums, reviews, and blogs. We believe that together, we'll get closer to ending the struggle of acne.
For our first 8 years we were entirely not-for-profit. However, acne.org members demanded we produce a larger size 2.5% benzoyl peroxide to use with The Regimen, and so we began our journey to produce ideal products for use on acne-prone skin. For the past 10 years we have sold what we strive to be the very best products of their kind in every way, including being offered in giant bottles at affordable prices so people can really take control of their skin.
Acne.org started when Dan's friend Karen recommended he read a book called "The 7 Spiritual Laws Of Success" by Deepak Chopra. In the book, Chopra asks the reader to ask him/herself the two questions, "What are my unique talents?" and "How can I use these talents to best help people?"
As it happens, Dan had just figured out how to clear up his skin using The Regimen. He figured this was his "unique talent." He figured the best way to help was to put his regimen online and see if it worked for other people.
Since 1996 when The Regimen first went online, Dan and the rest of the team have continued asking ourselves the question "How can we best help?" This has led us to always keep on top of the latest acne research and put it online in Plain English so that people can easily understand it. It also led us to start a forum so people could support one another, a gallery so people could share evidence of what works and what doesn't, and reviews so people can pool their opinions on various products and treatments.
After several years of being completely not-for-profit, we also realized that we could best help people by producing large, affordable, and top quality products for use on The Regimen.
This way of working is freeing and fun. It means we do not need to think of money first. Rather, we just ask ourselves how we can best help. As it turns out, this way of working has helped our company stay successful and strong since its inception.

FIFA Soccer 10 Trailer Shows Balls Kicked By FeetAh football, the beautiful game! And still reasonably attractive when impudently dubbed "soccer" and made into a video game, if the first FIFA Soccer 10 trailer is any indication.
Along with improved player AI and football mechanics, and a deeper Manager mode, EA claims FIFA 10 sports "the first-ever true 360 degree dribbling system." Charming.
Developed by EA Canada and published by EA Sports, FIFA Soccer 10 is scheduled for release on PC, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Wii, PS2, PSP and Nintendo DS in the fall.

Bucks & Hens Parties
Can We Have a Bucks/Hens Party if We're Eloping?
We're planning on eloping. Can we still have a bucks and hens party?
We're planning on eloping. Can we still have a bucks and hens party?
What if MOH Won't Plan the Hens Night?
My maid of honour recently told me that she's too stressed out planning my bridal shower to also plan a hens night. I thought it was a bit rude, but also, I've really been looking forward to having a fun last night out. Would it be wrong for me to drop a hint with another…

- Bucks & Hens Parties
Who Pays for the Hens Night?
At a bucks party, the best man typically charges per head for drinks and entertainment. Is it proper etiquette to charge per head at a hen's party, or should the maid of honour foot the entire bill?

Can We Combine the Hens & Bucks?
Neither my fiancé nor I are interested in having a buck's or a hen's party. Still, our friends want to do something for us. Would it be strange to have a joint party?

Must I pay if I can't go?
I am an out-of-state bridesmaid who cannot attend the hen's night. Should I still be helping the maid of honour (MOH) pay for the party?

Is it Proper to Have a Hens Night?
My mother says that nice girls do not have hen's parties because of what may happen on that particular night. Is it proper for women to celebrate the last night of singlehood by having a hen's night? Men do it and have far raunchier, beer-driven parties than we would!

Do we Cover ALL the Bride's Expenses?

Making my Hens Party More Affordable?
I love the posh hen's party my maid of honour has planned, but I'm worried it'll leave too many of my friends out – with the amount everyone's already shelled out for bridesmaid dresses, wedding gifts, and everything else, I know some of my maids won't have enough dough for a spa weekend on top…

SCR today announces its release of the SCR Heatime HR-LD System, which will provide real-time health monitoring and heat detection with the use of rumination and activity monitoring.
Key to the system will be long-range radio communication capability, with one antenna capable of a range of several hundred yards. That means cows will no longer have to be near short-range antenna located in the parlor or over drinking fonts. The long-range system will be able to constantly monitor cow rumination and activity.
The system also offers bidirectional communication, which enables data storage in the neck-worn tags. Software upgrades of the tags can therefore be done without the need to remove them from cows.
"[All of] this gives farmers the information they need for true data-based decision making and the peace of mind that their cows are truly monitored 24/7," says Yariv Avisor, CEO of SCR. SCR currently has more than 2 million Heatime tags around the world.
Art Meinholz has been using the activity/rumination tags on one of his family's three dairies for the past year. His original motive was to reduce his reliance on heat synchronization drugs and protocols. "We've improved our breeding and decreased the amount of hormones were using to the point where we are not breeding off timed A.I. for the first service," he says. Overall timed A.I. has been reduced about 40%.
Blue Star Dairy, 20 or so minutes north of Madison, Wis., milks 540 cows. It has a rolling herd average on 32,000 lb./cow with 3.8% butterfat and 3.1% protein. The herd average has improved 1,000 lb./cow over the past year or so.
Art's nephew, Jeremy, is in charge of the breeding program. He estimates that GnRH use has dropped by a half to two thirds. The herd is now at a 60% heat detection rate while maintaining a 20% pregnancy rate. Two-year-old conception rates were at 47% in June, older cows somewhat less.
The Meinholzes breed off both activity and rumination. Activity increases during estrus while rumination dips. That combination offers them a good signal when the cow is in peak estrus. They try to breed 12 hours after peak, with Jeremy checking his computer four to five times per day watching for those peaks.
The rumination monitors also aid in fresh cow health monitoring. Art is in charge of monitoring the fresh cow pen. "We still temp fresh cows for each of five days after calving, but now I will check the rumination data first. That tells me to double check that cow if she is not ruminating," he says.
The rumination data also is a way to monitor and validate treatments cows receive. If the treatment isn't working, rumination activity won't rebound to normal, he says.

What to expect from Lululemon
The athletic clothing maker, which will report earnings on Thursday, has topped estimates over the last four quarters.
By Zacks Equity Research
Lululemon Athletica Inc. (LULU), a leading athletic apparel and accessories retailer in Canada, the U.S. and Australia, is scheduled to report its fourth-quarter 2011 financial results before the opening bell on March 22.
The current Zacks Consensus Estimate for earnings for the quarter is 49 cents a share. For the fourth quarter, revenue is expected to be $360 million, according to the Zacks Consensus Estimate.
Third-quarter recap
Lululemon posted earnings of 27 cents per share for third-quarter 2011, handily beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 25 cents and topping the prior-year quarter's earnings of 18 cents by 50%.
The company's 16% increase in comparable-store sales and 71% rise in direct-to-consumer revenues resulted in a nearly 31% year-over-year surge in the quarter's revenues, which came in at $230.2 million. However, revenues fell short of the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $234 million.
Fourth-quarter 2011 outlook
The yoga-inspired athletic apparel company forecasts its earnings for the fourth quarter to be in the range of 47 cents to 49 cents per share, an increase from its previous guidance of 40 cents to 42 cents. Lululemon is expecting earnings growth of approximately 47% to 53% from the prior-year quarter's earnings of 32 cents per share, up from its previous forecasted range of 25% to 31%.
According to management, the existing store upgrades and new store openings have the potential to generate net revenues of $358 to $363 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011, compared with $327 to $332 million guided earlier. The company also anticipates comps to grow in the range of low-to-mid twenties for the upcoming fourth quarter, instead of the earlier forecasted growth range of low-to-mid teens.
Zacks consensus
The analysts surveyed by Zacks expect Lululemon to post fourth-quarter 2011 earnings of 49 cents a share, higher than 32 cents registered in the prior-year quarter. Currently, the Zacks Consensus Estimate ranges between 48 cents and 50 cents a share.
For fiscal 2011, the Zacks Consensus Estimate stood at $1.24 per share, higher than the previous fiscal earnings of 79 cents. The current Zacks Consensus Estimate for the fiscal ranges between $1.17 and $1.26 per share.
Agreement of estimate
Of the 20 analysts covering the stock, none has revisited their estimates for the fourth quarter over the last 30 days. For the full year, two analysts revised their estimate in the positive direction over the last 30 days, accompanied by a sole reverse movement.
Over the last seven days, no movement in estimates has been noticed for the fourth quarter, while for fiscal 2011, one analyst revised its estimate in the upward direction.
Magnitude of estimate revisions
With hardly any earnings revision by the analysts over the last 30 days, the Zacks Consensus Estimates for the fourth quarter of 2011 and fiscal 2011 remained unchanged at 49 cents and $1.24 per share, respectively.
Surprise history
With respect to earnings surprises, Lululemon has topped the Zacks Consensus Estimate over the last four quarters in the range of 8% to 18.2%. The average remained at positive 14.1%, suggesting that Lululemon has surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate by that measure in the trailing four quarters.
Our take
We believe that Lululemon's continued focus on introducing technical athletic products made from innovative and diversified fabrics will further enhance its market proposition. In addition, the company's continuous strategic investments to expand its global footprint while evaluating the performance of existing stores will further boost both its top and bottom lines.
The company currently competes with retailers such as Nike Inc. (NKE) and Under Armour Inc. (UA), which hope to grab market share in active wear or lifestyle consumer products. The athletic apparel industry is characterized by rapidly changing customer preferences and technology. We believe that Lululemon's continuous focus on product innovation will keep it ahead of its competitors.
We are retaining our long-term 'Outperform' recommendation on the stock. Currently, Lululemon maintains a Zacks #1 Rank, which translates into a short-term 'Strong Buy' rating.

VIDEO: 'Magical Piano' stunt impresses commuters at Chicago Union Station
Watch what happens when a "magical" piano plays songs in real-time as commuters walk by in Chicago's Union Station. YouTube user Rob Bliss, who is the founder of RobBlissCreative, partnered with Amtrak to pull off this stunt to bring some holiday cheer to all the commuters who pass through Chicago Union Station.
A real pianist was hired to play tunes from a hidden room and interact with people that walked by.
Most of the commuters appear to be impressed by the piano playing, including a musician who stops to play along with it. The video was posted on December 11, has gone viral and has over 3 million page views.
Although parts of this clip appear to be staged, the reactions of the people involved will still bring a smile to your face this holiday season.

Ok so I took me a bit more than the a week I promised, but now it's done.
Complete serie is here.
How pretty
Maxyme G. Delisle / 2014
Girls are pretty, everyone knows that.
Their skin drives people crazy, even more if there is lace on their skin, lace and skin, but not too much lace.
A girl sitting on a window sill, a girl with sad eyes, because it's raining outside and she is sad.
Or, a girl with her head buried in the bed sheets, a bed that could be from anywhere BUT Ikea.
Or, a girl with tousled hair. Tousled on purpose.
Or, a girl with the nape of her neck peaking through her hair, a girl that makes you shiver because of the sexual tension or because of the temperature. Or both.
How pretty these girls are.
Pretty in soft clothes, soft love, the soft touch of a lazy morning.

George Clooney & Stacy Keibler Step Out Amid Split Rumors
Rumors have been swirling about a possible impending split between George Clooney and Stacy Keibler, but the happy couple stepped out on Thursday night and they appeared inseparable.
George, 51, and Stacy, 32, attended the "Argo" premiere (a film the actor produced) in Los Angeles — their first public appearance together in months.
The "Supermarket Superstars" host looked stunning in a black backless vintage Alaia dress, which showed off plenty of skin, and the Oscar winner had trouble keeping his hands off his girlfriend. Stacy completed her red carpet look with Giuseppe Zanotti shoes and Neil Lane jewelry.
George looked dapper in a matching black suit.
The pair did not speak to the press at the premiere, but were spotted chatting with the film's director and star Ben Affleck.
"Argo" hits theaters on October 12.

The final leg from Newcastle to Sydney – a perfect way to end a perfect trip. Thanks to Fred Mau and Tom Gibson for helping me enjoy such a fabulous conclusion to the journey.
We were hugging the beach earlier, probably about half a mile out, sailing close-hauled into a nor-Easter. I said to Kelly that I didn't feel comfortable so close in on a lee shore. We were getting pinched so I decided to start the engine and roll up the headie. As I put her into gear there was a loud thumping noise! I killed the engine immediately and we tacked offshore. About two miles out we dropped all the canvas and I went in with snorkeling gear and leatherman, assuming we'd picked up a fish trap buoy or such. I found… Nothing!
Started the engine and all normal…
Anyway, used the opportunity to thread reef2 that I had taken out for inshore sailing. Better to be sure!
The northerly breeze persisted till midnight, and we motored a fair bit. Poor Kelly tried to sleep through the rumble of the engine and the occasional slamming into the short sharp chop whipped up by the pesky sea breeze.
I stayed up till midnight, sailing hard on the wind but still being pushed further and further offshore and into the current. We were now losing two knots to the south setting current. My patience was rewarded when the forecast westerlies appeared exactly as forecast around midnight. I trimmed a course that would take us closer inshore and then woke Kelly as I was by now feeling more than ready for bed.
I briefed Kelly at length (she'd be justified in digging up the "does a bear know how to shit in the woods" reply again!) and then hit the quarter berth…
Going to windward in 25 knots, making 7 to 8 knots. Sound like a wet and wild sail? Not with our enclosed cockpit. It's dry and warm in here! What joy! We've now got one reef in the main (no need to leave the cockpit) and consistent with the the forecast, the wind is dropping. We're meant to be getting 20 knot westerlies after the lull, so I'll keep the reef in for now.

Celebrate the election results
Let's celebrate these next four years. Let's give our commander in chief a chance to put right what was wrong when he first took office. He can't fix a broken economy and a broken country in just four years. It took G.W. Bush longer than that to totally screw us up. Why not give Obama the same amount of time to fix it?
God's will?
Some Republicans are claiming that Hurricane Sandy is responsible for the re-election of President Obama. In the same breath, they claim that Hurricane Sandy is a work of God. So are they saying that the re-election of the president is really God's work? Food for thought.
From Ben's mouth
Wise old Benjamin Franklin stated: 'He that is good at making excuses is seldom good for anything else.'
Reminds us of President Obama who falls back to blaming George Bush every time something goes wrong in Washington. It is the incompetence of the Democrats and their insistence of sticking with failed big-government policies that has made a bad situation worse.
No trust from the president
Our president's rejection of American exceptionalism has translated into his stark lack of faith in the American people.
He won't trust individuals to control their own health care, plan for their own retirement or even spend their own money.
Previous leaders have had a faith and trust in our fundamental goodness, creativity, entrepreneurialism and generosity. We do not need or want our government to be our policeman, banker or nanny. In God we trust.
Fire the CEO
Great job, Obama voters. You wanted America to become Europe, it is just around the corner.
President Obama upon re-election signed the United Nations Small Arms Treaty. The Second Amendment has been stripped. Gun restrictions are just around the corner. Without the Second Amendment, the other amendments will fall. Congratulations. America.
Overnight CNBC posted on their website, then immediately pulled, a report that a lawsuit has been filed by a national law firm representing several hundred clients, against several Obama officials. The lawsuit deals with $43 trillion of taxpayer dollars, TARP funds misused by Holder and others. Read the Wall Street Journal report press release dated Oct. 25 at 2:09 p.m.
Yesterday we learned that Iran fired upon one of our drones days before the election. Of course this administration's transparent policy did what it usually does: hide it from the public until after the election. Fast and Furious, the Benghazi murders, now Iran firing on our aircraft. What's next? Do we really have a strong leader? The answer is obvious.
Obama appeared for a photo op after Hurricane Sandy, and hasn't been back since. The area still is without electricity and supplies. The majority of the relief effort has come from local citizens. Federal support has failed. The media was quick to jump on President Bush after Hurricane Katrina. Where is the same scrutiny now? The media darling isn't looking so pretty when he has to actually show leadership, take charge and gets thing done.
Suppose you were owner of a major company and hired a CEO to run it. After the hire, things were not going well and you ask for some records to investigate. The CEO refused to hand over the documents. What if the CEO wasn't honest in his explanation for the failure? What if after the hire, you find out the CEO concealed facts that would have kept him for being hired? Would you give the CEO a pass and allow him to continue his employment, or would you do what was best for your company and fire him?
President Obama is our CEO. We are the owners' of America, President Obama works for us, not the reverse. President Obama has failed to be honest with the American people and that dishonesty resulted in his re-election. I think we need and should demand answers.
We made a mistake Tuesday. The mistake was caused by not having all the facts. We rely on those we elect to office to be open and honest. When they prove otherwise, it is time to show them the door, whether it is an election year or not.
Editor's note: The president did not sign the United Nations Arms Treaty. It doesn't exist. The U.N. disarmament committee on Wednesday, Nov. 7 passed a resolution that would allow talks to resume on the topic in March. As for the CNBC story, several websites with names such as counterspyops.com, beforeitsnews.com, thedailysheeple.com among others, reported this story but linked it to the murder of a CNBC executive's children. We will let readers decide if these websites are credible news sources.
Larger crowds should mean election win
Can anybody explain how Gov. Romney had larger crowds, a more enthusiastic fan base and momentum on his side, lost the election? I have an idea why. Rep. Allen West is having a recount of his election results, and so far the recount shows, he is ahead in the vote count. It is entirely possible, the same error has occurred for Gov. Romney. I think a national recount should be made to verify the results. I would think President Obama would encourage such a recount, or if need be a re- vote, to eliminate any doubt, which I believe the nation has, that he honestly won the election.
Voting machines wrongly recording votes and workers at the polls removed for allowing unregistered people to vote, occurred in South Florida, and voter intimidation in Philadelphia, are more than enough reasons for us, as a nation, to demand a recount or re-vote.
Editor's note: As of press time, Patrick Murphy was leading Allen West by 1,907 votes or 0.58 percent. In Florida, official results show President Obama defeated Gov. Romney by 50 percent to 49.1 percent, which is greater than 0.5 percent, which by state law would trigger a recount.

Back from the gym! I started with 10 minutes on the stationary bike to warm up and followed it up with some stretches and ab work. After that, I hit the weights for a while and did both upper and lower bodies. Finally, I hit the treadmill for a short burst of half a mile worth of sprints. Overall it was a great workout. Those sprints had me breathing hard. Anyway, I took a couple of pictures but it was too dark for my phone to get anything good and I didn't bring my good camera. Maybe next time!

Inactivated Influenza Vaccine 2013-14: What You Need to Know (VIS)
Many Vaccine Information Statements are available in Spanish and other languages. See www.immunize.org/vis
Hojas de Informacián Sobre Vacunas están disponibles en Español y en muchos otros idiomas. Visite http://www.immunize.org/vis
1. Why get vaccinated?
Influenza ("flu") is a contagious disease that spreads around the United States every winter, usually between October and May.
Flu is caused by the influenza virus, and can be spread by coughing, sneezing, and close contact.
Anyone can get flu, but the risk of getting flu is highest among children. Symptoms come on suddenly and may last several days. They can include:
sore throat
muscle aches
runny or stuffy nose
Flu can make some people much sicker than others. These people include young children, people 65 and older, pregnant women, and people with certain health conditions such as heart, lung or kidney disease, or a weakened immune system. Flu vaccine is especially important for these people, and anyone in close contact with them.
Flu can also lead to pneumonia, and make existing medical conditions worse. It can cause diarrhea and seizures in children.
Each year thousands of people in the United States die from flu, and many more are hospitalized.
Flu vaccine is the best protection we have from flu and its complications. Flu vaccine also helps prevent spreading flu from person to person.
2. Inactivated flu vaccine
There are two types of influenza vaccine:
You are getting an inactivated flu vaccine, which does not contain any live influenza virus. It is given by injection with a needle, and often called the "flu shot."
A different, live, attenuated (weakened) influenza vaccine is sprayed into the nostrils. This vaccine is described in a separate Vaccine Information Statement.
Flu vaccine is recommended every year. Children 6 months through 8 years of age should get two doses the first year they get vaccinated.
Flu viruses are always changing. Each year's flu vaccine is made to protect from viruses that are most likely to cause disease that year. While flu vaccine cannot prevent all cases of flu, it is our best defense against the disease. Inactivated flu vaccine protects against 3 or 4 different influenza viruses.
It takes about 2 weeks for protection to develop after the vaccination, and protection lasts several months to a year.
Some illnesses that are not caused by influenza virus are often mistaken for flu. Flu vaccine will not prevent these illnesses. It can only prevent influenza.
A "high-dose" flu vaccine is available for people 65 years of age and older. The person giving you the vaccine can tell you more about it.
Some inactivated flu vaccine contains a very small amount of a mercury-based preservative called thimerosal. Studies have shown that thimerosal in vaccines is not harmful, but flu vaccines that do not contain a preservative are available.
3. Some people should not get this vaccine
Tell the person who gives you the vaccine:
If you have any severe (life-threatening) allergies. If you ever had a life-threatening allergic reaction after a dose of flu vaccine, or have a severe allergy to any part of this vaccine, you may be advised not to get a dose. Most, but not all, types of flu vaccine contain a small amount of egg.
If you ever had Guillain-Barré Syndrome (a severe paralyzing illness, also called GBS). Some people with a history of GBS should not get this vaccine. This should be discussed with your doctor.
If you are not feeling well. They might suggest waiting until you feel better. But you should come back.
4. Risks of a vaccine reaction
With a vaccine, like any medicine, there is a chance of side effects. These are usually mild and go away on their own.
Serious side effects are also possible, but are very rare. Inactivated flu vaccine does not contain live flu virus, so getting flu from this vaccine is not possible.
Brief fainting spells and related symptoms (such as jerking movements) can happen after any medical procedure, including vaccination. Sitting or lying down for about 15 minutes after a vaccination can help prevent fainting and injuries caused by falls. Tell your doctor if you feel dizzy or light-headed, or have vision changes or ringing in the ears.
Mild problems following inactivated flu vaccine:
soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given
hoarseness; sore, red or itchy eyes; cough
If these problems occur, they usually begin soon after the shot and last 1 or 2 days.
Moderate problems following inactivated flu vaccine:
Young children who get inactivated flu vaccine and pneumococcal vaccine (PCV13) at the same time may be at increased risk for seizures caused by fever. Ask your doctor for more information. Tell your doctor if a child who is getting flu vaccine has ever had a seizure.
Severe problems following inactivated flu vaccine:
A severe allergic reaction could occur after any vaccine (estimated less than 1 in a million doses).
There is a small possibility that inactivated flu vaccine could be associated with Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS), no more than 1 or 2 cases per million people vaccinated. This is much lower than the risk of severe complications from flu, which can be prevented by flu vaccine.
The safety of vaccines is always being monitored. For more information, visit: www.cdc.gov/vaccinesafety/
5. What if there is a serious reaction?
What should I look for?
Look for anything that concerns you, such as signs of a severe allergic reaction, very high fever, or behavior changes.
Signs of a severe allergic reaction can include hives, swelling of the face and throat, difficulty breathing, a fast heartbeat, dizziness, and weakness. These would start a few minutes to a few hours after the vaccination.
What should I do?
If you think it is a severe allergic reaction or other emergency that can't wait, call 9-1-1 or get the person to the nearest hospital. Otherwise, call your doctor.
Afterward, the reaction should be reported to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS). Your doctor might file this report, or you can do it yourself through the VAERS web site at www.vaers.hhs.gov, or by calling 1-800-822-7967.
VAERS is only for reporting reactions. They do not give medical advice.
7. The National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program
The National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP) is a federal program that was created to compensate people who may have been injured by certain vaccines.
Persons who believe they may have been injured by a vaccine can learn about the program and about filing a claim by calling 1-800-338-2382 or visiting the VICP website at www.hrsa.gov/vaccinecompensation.
8. How can I learn more?
Ask your doctor.
Call your local or state health department.
Contact the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC):
- Call 1-800-232-4636 (1-800-CDC-INFO) or
- Visit CDC's website at www.cdc.gov/flu

Milwaukee, WI (Sports Network) - Luis Valbuena, Nate Schierholtz and Brian Bogusevic homered and the Cubs won the finale of a four-game series 5-1 over the Brewers on Thursday to avoid being swept.
The Cubs snapped a five-game losing streak and finished 4-7 on an 11-game road trip.
Jake Arrieta (3-2) struck out five in seven innings to get the win, giving up just three hits, a walk and one run. He also knocked in a run with a sacrifice bunt.
The Cubs outhit the Brewers 13-4.
"We played a really clean game, swung the bats," said Cubs manager Dale Sveum. "It's big to not get swept."
Coming off a complete game in his last outing, Kyle Lohse (10-10) took the loss after giving up three runs, seven hits and a walk in five innings. He struck out four.
Milwaukee had a four-game winning streak snapped. Carlos Gomez homered in the loss.
Thursday marked the last game of the season between the NL Central rivals.
The Brewers dominated the Cubs, going 13-6 against them this season, but showed little signs of life on Thursday.
"We didn't have many chances to do much (offensively)," said Brewers manager Ron Roenicke. "We did square up some balls, about five or so that were hit right at people. But we didn't do much damage."
Arrieta walked the leadoff batter, then retired 11 in a row. Meanwhile, the Cubs took a 3-0 lead.
Valbuena homered into the second deck in right field in the first inning to give them a 1-0 lead. It was his 12th of the season. Schierholtz hit his 21st of the season in the third, scoring Anthony Rizzo.
Chicago scored its next run off Burke Badenhop in the sixth on Arrieta's sac bunt.
Gomez homered in the seventh for Milwaukee, his 21st of the season, and Bogusevic belted his sixth of the year off Donovan Hand in the ninth.
The Cubs start a six-game homestand Friday against the Braves ... The Brewers
are 5-2 on a 10-game homestand that ends with a three-game series against the
Cardinals this weekend.

LEWISBURG, Pa. — The geology department at Bucknell University will host an open house April 22 from 7 to 9 p.m. in the O'Leary Center.
According to Dan Heuer, Bucknell senior geology major and geology outreach coordinator, activities include displays of common and obscure rocks, minerals and fossils. "The focus of the open house is to examine how geology is influential in daily life," he said.
Geology faculty, staff and students will be on hand to answer questions.
"If you have a few rocks, minerals or fossils that you would like to be identified, bring them and a geology expert will identify them for you," said Mary Beth Gray, associate professor and chair of the geology department at Bucknell.
Children under 10 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian to the open house, which will have other activities geared toward elementary school children.
The O'Leary Center for Geology and Psychology is located on Seventh Street. For more information, call 577-1146.

Multiple traffic stops were attempted by Pinal County Sheriff's Office deputies last week involving people who were in the country illegally, fleeing from officers.
PCSO deputies saw a vehicle speeding down Highway 84 Monday, Feb. 25, and when they tried to pull the car over the vehicle took off driving 80 mph in a 55 mph zone. When the driver, Dimas Daniel Orundo-Lopez, 40, made a U-turn the back tire on the driver's side came off the vehicle, according to PCSO deputies.
Lopez stopped the vehicle in a nearby muddy field where he and his passenger, Claudio Santiago Orduno-Canez, 27, both tried running away. Officers were able to catch both Lopez and Canez, who admitted they were in the country illegally.
When officers searched their car they found 35 bundles of packaged marijuana, which weighed 759 pounds and had a street value of $569,250.
Lopez and Canez have been booked into the Pinal County Adult Detention Center for possession of marijuana for sale and transportation of marijuana for sale according to PCSO. Lopez has also been charged with felony flight.
PCSO tried to make another traffic stop Tuesday, Feb. 26 on a Chevy truck after making multiple traffic violations when the driver took off. During the short pursuit PCSO officers saw the Chevy truck running stop signs and speeding down streets before turning into a desert field where he tried to avoid hitting a concrete irrigation canal but ended up losing control of the truck and crashing.
After the truck crashed the driver, along with nine passengers, ran according to PCSO. Officers were able to locate seven of the individuals who have now been turned over to the U.S. Border Patrol for processing.
PCSO had a third pursuit happen after trying to stop a vehicle for traffic violations that led to a short pursuit. The pursuit led offices into a desert area off of Standfield Road near Peters Road where The driver and several other passengers ran from the car. PCSO officers along with PCSO helicopter and Border Patrol agents detained everyone from the car. Border patrol is now processing the detainees.

Federal investigators, in an unprecedented display of confidence that the most infamous art theft in history will soon be solved, said Monday that they know who is behind the Gardner Museum heist 23 years ago and that some of the priceless artwork was offered for sale on Philadelphia's black market as recently as a decade ago.
In the most extensive account to date of the investigation, Richard DesLauriers, the FBI special agent in charge of the Boston office, would not identify those involved in the heist, saying it would hinder the ongoing investigation. But he said that knowing the identity of the culprits has "been opening other doors" as federal agents continue their search for the missing artwork.
