BLACKHAWKS (46-21-15) at BLUES (52-23-7)
Last 10: Chicago 5-5-0; St. Louis 3-7-0
Season series: The St. Louis Blues won the first three games in the regular season and the Chicago Blackhawks prevailed in the final two, which were both at United Center. Chicago's wins were by scores of 4-0 on March 19 and 4-2 on April 6. The Blues won twice in shootouts and beat Chicago 3-2 on Oct. 9 at Scottrade Center on Alexander Steen's goal at 19:38 of the third period.
Big story: The Blackhawks played their final six games of the regular season without captain Jonathan Toews (upper-body injury) and right wing Patrick Kane (lower body) in the lineup, but the Blues dealt with more key injuries down the stretch.
St. Louis had eight regulars out of the lineup in its 3-0 loss to the Detroit Red Wings that concluded the regular season and that finalized this matchup of longtime rivals in the Stanley Cup Playoffs. The Blues should have some of their injured players back for Game 1 of this Western Conference First Round series Thursday in St. Louis (7 p.m. CT) and the Blackhawks will have Toews and Kane.
Much of the pre-series talk focuses on the physicality of the Blues against the speed and skill of the Blackhawks, but there will also be two highly successful, driven coaches matching wits in Chicago's Joel Quenneville and St. Louis' Ken Hitchcock.
"We're both very much tilted toward the analytical side of coaching, so we study things that we feel are important, that are kind of advanced stats and stuff like that," Hitchcock said. "[Quenneville] uses that in a big way, the way he plays his players, the way he coordinates his lines, the way he sends guys out there gives them the best chance for success, and we do the same with our guys. It's important for us to have the right players on the ice at the right time."
Team Scope:
Blackhawks: The Blues will definitely try to establish a punishing, physical style against Chicago. It's what they do best against any opponent. It will be no surprise to the Blackhawks, who are aware that any penalties assessed for retaliation could be costly.
"Sometimes you go into these series and you think a little too much about the physical play or what's going to happen and it throws you off," said Kane, who could start the series playing right wing on the third line. "We've just got to go out there, play hockey, play the way we know how to play and not worry about all that other stuff, whether it happens after the whistle or during the play."
Blues: St. Louis had just one full practice between the end of the regular season and the series opener. The time off was used primarily for rest and recovery. Hampered by a growing number of missing players, the Blues went into a tailspin to end the regular season, losing six straight games and scoring less than two goals in the last nine in a row.
"I think we're OK," defenseman Jay Bouwmeester said. "There's a certain way we have to play, obviously, and just lately maybe we've gotten away from that a little bit. The last two games against [the Blackhawks] weren't our best effort, for sure. I think we just have to go back and remind ourselves what we did to have success and go from there."
Who's hot: Blackhawks forward Ben Smith scored four goals in the season's final six games and forward Marian Hossa scored five goals in the last 10 contests. … Blues forward Jaden Schwartz scored two goals in the final five games of the regular season.
Injury report: Chicago is fully stocked heading into the postseason. … St. Louis forwards David Backes (lower-body), T.J. Oshie (upper-body), Vladimir Sobotka (lower-body), Derek Roy (upper-body) and Brenden Morrow (lower-body) and defensemen Barret Jackman (undisclosed) and Alex Pietrangelo (undisclosed) are all dealing with various issues. They're all expected back at some point, along with forwards Vladimir Tarasenko (hand) and Patrik Berglund (upper body).

In today's typical electronic assemblies the single largest cost is the components that make up the assembly. Therefore being able to manage the component supply chain is critical to delivering profitable products for electronic manufacturers.
Within the Process Engineering product line of the Valor MSS suite, vPlan provides an unparalleled solution for managing components, Bill of Materials (BOM) and Approved Vendor Lists (AVL). Fundamentally vPlan is BOM centric, meaning that it is the manufacturing BOM that drives the tool. This is consistent with how electronic assemblers work in their manufacturing processes, ie through the management of the BOM. All the other solutions that exist in the market are CAD centric, meaning that they use Computer Aided Design (CAD) data as the primary data source to drive their tools. This BOM centric approach provides a fundamentally sound foundation to model the manufacturing process as the physical Printed Circuit Board (PCB), is just an item on the full BOM, which it is in reality.
Significant flexibility and cost savings can be achieved through effective management of the procurement of electronic components. Having alternate parts that can be substituted when one vendor is unable to supply a particular part can mean the difference in being able to build a product or not. In this case the primary part number can be mapped to multiple manufacturer and manufacturer part numbers. Then depending on availability these parts can be selected for specific production batches. vPlan fully supports the use of AVLs in its structure even to the point where each manufacturer specific part can be represented with an exact package construction.
I'll be posting a further blog on the creation and use of these manufacturer specific packages in the next installment.

The default sex of many species, including humans, is female. It takes something extra to make a male. Nature is not perfect. That is why you get YY, XXY and other problems. Women normally have 2 X's but one dominates the other. In Men, the X tries to dominate the Y but fails because the Y hides from the X. It does this by dropping unnecessary genes to become as small as possible. That is why the Y chromo is nearly identical in all males.
It comes down to what a species needs to survive. In humans, males take most of the risks, fight the bear and the lion, which free's up women to concentrate on rearing children. But, as society progresses, there is less and less need for the qualities males provide, and that leads to my last post. It has nothing to do with an afterlife. Humans will figure out how to procreate without 2 sexes.
And that is what Jesus meant when he said, "Two will lie on a bed. One will live. The other will die." The women present thought it was they whom Jesus said would die but that was an assumption, and a wrong one. All of this has happened before. It is the natural progression of species. That is why Jesus was not predicting the future. He was quoting the past.

Paltalk offers all-in-one communications

If you've used an IM client like Trillian or Pidgin, then Paltalk's interface should feel familiar, with its vertical towerlike orientation, list of contacts, and status bar. The difference is that Paltalk does a lot more than those programs do--which is good. So, in addition to the typical IM contact list, there's a Chat Room panel, as well … Read more

Single Panel 4, Lounge Chairs. Objective turn one 4'x8' panel of plywood into comfortable seating using only the material without fasteners or glue. Use the natural characteristics of plywood to transform flat surfaces into a non-static object.
Outcome, two arm chairs that react to their user by taking advantage of the flexible ability of plywood and it's resistance to shear stress. A cantilevered seat and back flex to create a slight curve when loaded with an occupant. The seat is attached to the side structure at the front of the chair. When weight is applied to seat near the intersection of the back the plywood flexes creating a curve and springiness experienced by the user. The seats movement is regulated by passing through a void in the backrest limiting the downward movement of the seat as to avoid failure of the plywood. This element also provides a window and visual evidence of the mechanics of the chair. Similar to the seat the backrest is attached to the structure only at it's bottom most point also allowing flexure to increase comfort. The backrest as well has a motion limiter in the form of the arm rest that surrounds the sides and back of the structure.
This exploration of form and structure press the limitation of not just maximization of material, but also push it's physical aspects as well. The SP4 raises the question again of what are the possibilities of a 4'x8' panel of plywood with no fasteners or glue.

The all-time winningest manager in Phillies history, Charlie Manuel completed a nearly nine-year run (2005-13) in that position before moving into a different role with the organization. He was named senior advisor to the general manager in January of 2014. In his role, he will assist in minor league hitting instruction, scout and serve as a consultant to the baseball operations staff as well as a club ambassador in the Philadelphia region. Charlie is also the 2014 Phillies Wall of Fame inductee.
During his time as the club's manager, Charlie led the Phillies to their first playoff appearance in 14 years in 2007, five straight division titles (2007-11), two National League pennants (2008-09) and one World Championship (2008). He posted a record of 780-636 (.551) for the Phillies and 1,000-826 (.548) overall as a major league manager. Charlie is one of 59 managers in major league history to reach 1,000 wins. He managed two NL All-Star teams (2009-10), which included guiding the 2010 team to a win, snapping the NL's 13-year winless streak.
Before being named manager of the Phillies, Charlie spent his first two years (2003-04) with the organization as special assistant to the general manager under Ed Wade, serving as one of Wade's top scouts as well as working on major and minor league hitting instruction.In the 15 years (1988-2002) prior to joining the Phillies, Charlie worked for the Cleveland Indians in a variety of roles, including minor league manager and major league hitting coach. He managed the Indians for three years (2000-02), leading the team to the Central Division title in 2001, and was chosen as a coach for the 2002 American League All-Star team by Hall of Famer Joe Torre. From 1994-99, his second tour as hitting coach, Cleveland led the AL in runs three times (1994-95, 1999), led the league in home runs twice (1994-95) and set a franchise record by hitting 220 homers in 1997.
Charlie also managed in the Minnesota Twins minor league system for five years (1983-87) and scouted for the organization in 1982. He was originally signed by the Twins in 1963 and went on to play professionally for 19 years, including major league stints with the Twins and Los Angeles Dodgers, where his only two managers were Billy Martin and Walter Alston. From 1976-81 Charlie had a very successful six-year career in Japan, playing for three pennant winners. He hit a combined .303 with 189 home runs and led his league in home runs in back-to-back seasons (1979-80), including 48 in 1980, the same year Hall of Famer Mike Schmidt led the major leagues with the same total. In 1979, he was the first American-born player to be named MVP.
Charlie is a two-time winner (2011 & 2013) of the Dallas Green Special Achievement Award, presented annually by the Philadelphia chapter of the BBWAA.
Born in North Fork, W.V., Charlie grew up in Buena Vista, Va. He currently resides in Winter Haven, Fla., with his fiancée, Melissa. He has two adult children, Chuck and Julie, three adult step-children, Collin, Hailey and Alley, and three grandchildren.

"Not an easy read but worth it"
This is not an easy read but I'm really glad I stuck with it . I learned so much about Lincoln and his journey through the events leading up to the emancipation of the slaves and his conclusion that all men are created equal. What seems obvious to us was not obvious to people in the 1850s. Lincoln did a lot of growing, something that made him so dear to so many people. Listening to this book not only gave me great insight into the problems of the time and their arrempted solution that still affects our country today, but it also made me love Abe Lincoln more than I already did.
"Everyone Should Read This Book!"
DSouza has such an interesting outlook on things. He sees them from a different angle and it makes me think. Although not born here, he is a great American. Everyone should listen to this book and then stand up for this country, or what is left of it. We can still save it.
"Another Great Conroy Book"
Great but sad story. It truly made my heart ache. Conroy is such a great writer that I could just listen all day. He makes me believe I am right in the middle of the action.
"More Great Listening!"
After having listened to Dr. Greenberg's course on the Thirty Greatest Orchestra Works, I had to have more, and decided to give this one a try. Although I have always had a great appreciation for the music of Mozart and truly love many of the things he has written, I can't say that he has been one of my all time favorite composers. With the insights I gained from this Great Courses class taught by Dr. Robert Greenberg, I must say the great genius has moved up in my estimation. My understanding of his music is markedly better, and I can now say he truly is one of my favorite composers. The world lost him way too soon at the age of nearly 36, but thank goodness for the things he was able to give us.
"Great Listening!"
I would have to say this is one of the best books I've listened to, although it is not technically a book. It is a part of the Great Courses series, through which you can increase your knowledge of just about anything.. This one is absolutely fabulous from my point of view. The author, Professor Robert Greenberg, took thirty of what he considers the very best of the Western Hemisphere orchestral works of the last three and a half centuries and expounded on them and their composers. Being somewhat of a music historian wannabee, I was so enthralled that the time fairly flew as I was absorbed in these classes. It made me want to go to my own recordings of these pieces and listen to them each from start to finish with new light and understanding. Bravo, Dr. Greenberg. Please keep these classes coming!!
"Not quite as I had remembered it"
I loved this book when I read it as a teenager and so when I saw it on Audible, I couldn't wait to get at it. I can't say I was disappointed, but it was a lot different than I had remembered it. It is a well written book about the Arthurian legend, and I did enjoy it, but not as much as that first time when I could not put it down. However, Neville Jason's performance was wonderful, and I totally enjoyed listening to him read it.
"War is the work of the Devil"
"War is the work of the devil." So says one of the generals of WWI, although I couldn't find the quote as I went back and looked for it in this 715 page history, so I can't even report for sure who said it. It doesn't really matter, though, because as I continued to study this book, if I got one thing from it, it would be that war is undoubtedly and indisputably Hell with a capital H. Living all my life hearing about WWI and II, I have never really been able to put the pieces together to make sense of it all. Several months ago I went on a WWII binge, reading and listening to a lot of books on it until I think I finally have at least a working knowledge of what it was all about. It seemed to follow that I then learn about WWI, and so I have been. This book offers a great starting point for the study of that war. I tried studying other books first, but got hopelessly lost. This book, by virtue of the way that is written, made it very accessible to me, and now I can study some of those other books with a degree of knowledge that will help me add to my understanding.
I really like the format of the book, particularly the short intermediary background chapters that shed so much light on the core story of the war. It helped so much with understanding the how and the why of the war, and events that it precipitated.
So in a nutshell, outside of the logistics and battles and armaments and all of that usual and necessary war stuff, here is what I learned. This war was fought for the flimsiest of reasons, if in fact there was a reason at all. Nations can act very much like two-year-old children fighting over an inexpensive toy. Over 9.5 million soldiers lost their lives over these petty squabbles, not to mention many more millions who were moderately to severely wounded, nor the millions of civilians who who were wounded or killed. The Germans were justified in being outraged at the way they were treated in the Treaty of Versailles, particularly by Woodrow Wilson, and we all know where that lead, or at least I hope we do.
I hope many more of us are willing to put forth the effort to learn the truth about war in the hopes of avoiding it in the future. The way things appear to me right now, it seems that we are going down this same path, and that scares me. No wonder Santayana, widely quoted by others, including Winston Churchill, has said, "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it."
As I started listening to this book, I felt the need to follow along with the physical book, and so I bought a copy. It was extremely helpful, as the book is full of pictures and maps, and I could see the names of people and places that were hard for me to grasp from just hearing them, names of German, Belgian and French cities, rivers and regions that to us do not sound like we think they should. A good example is the French town of Ypres, pronounced Eep. (One would be disappointed to look for the town of Eep on a map.). The narrator was just right for this book, and had a great command over multiple European accents. This was a great book to both read and listen to. I highly recommend it for anyone wanting to know more about the history of WWI and what the ramifications for us have been.
"Well Written Autobiography"
Although this is an autobiography, it reads like a novel. I loved reading this book. But once again it highlights the fact that humans can be the most vicious and mean species on the face of the earth. Papillon was not perfect, in fact he did some pretty bad things, but he did not commit the murder he was accused of, and for which he was sent to prison for life. Not just prison, but hard labor, with long stretches of solitary confinement in which he could talk to no one, ask for nothing, and never even see the sun. Papillon tried to escape 10 times and was totally successful the first time. If he hadn't decided he wanted to live somewhere else, he would never have been found and been reimprisoned. I remember seeing the movie with Steve McQueen years ago, and now I want to see it again.
More than anything else, this book taught me to never give up no matter how bleak the outlook. Some days I really need to remember that lesson.
I was a little "if-y" about Michael Prichard as a narrator at first, but I came to realize that his style and vocal characteristics are perfect for this story. Highly recommended.
"A Great Way to Learn This Story"
This book is extremely well written by a couple of Shakespearean professors who really know what they are talking about. The story of Macbeth is relative simple, and these two brought it to life for me. I will read the Shakespeare play now that I am very familiar with the story. Although a tragedy, I enjoyed this book very much.
The narration is also extremely well done and certainly added to the enjoyment of this book. I wish these authors and these narrators would do more of Shakespeare's stories.
"Everyone must read this book!"
This is one of those books you can't stop listening to until you are finished. It is powerful and heartbreaking and scary. There is layer after layer of meaning in this story, enough to keep a good book club going for a year at least. It is one I will be thinking about for a long time to come. At first I thought it was going to be a children's book, but it was soon evident that it wasn't the case. Yet, I'm not sure it is an adult book either. I guess it is just a book, a very profound and powerful book. It deals with concentration camps during WWII through the eyes of a 9 year-old German boy who lived just outside the camp fence. It is a very interesting point of view and a real eye-opener! Luckily it is a relatively short book so you can finish it in one or two sittings. Otherwise your life will have to go on hold until you finish it. Can't stop thinking about it.
"Good book"
"My Antonia" (emphasis on the "i") has been on my "to-read" list for a very long time. Oddly, I ended up with three versions of this book: Physical book, Kindle edition, and audio. I read all of them simultaneously. (I love doing that!) It is beautifully written by the great Willa Cather, and I understand it is very much autobiographical. Basically, it is the story of the Great Melting Pot, how foreign born families immigrated to the United States, specifically the Great Plains, and did their best to fit in, make a living, and give their children an opportunity that could not be had anywhere else in the world. It was not an easy life. These families left everything they knew, even their native languages, to come to the great unknown, with the promise of a better life. My own great-grandparents left Denmark in the late 1800s, in a similar time frame and reason as the people in this book, and brought their three young sons with them, boys who would never know their native land, or ever see it again. That takes guts, and these were gutsy people. Antonia was a strong, smart girl who grew up to raise a big family in the best way she knew how. I admire her.
With all this said, it is not the most compelling book I have ever read. Yes, I cared about the characters, and was involved with their lives, but it is not a serious page turner. It is an easy read, and may be best read by a young adult. In my opinion, it is a good book, and has many elements that make it very worthwhile reading. I just don't think I would categorize it as great. The narrator of the audio book was good, but not great either. He was easy to listen to and did a good job of reading it, but I was always conscious of his reading. He didn't suck me into the story the way a really great narrator can.
Bottom line: I really enjoyed it and would recommend it for anyone wanting to know more about pioneers, and how our country became "e pluribus unum."

Brasilia was born from a project designed by Lúcio Costa in 1956, then being designed by Oscar Niemeyer. Born to be the headquarters of the government. Nature contrasts with the amazing cosmopolitan buildings, all in a balanced account that appeals to visitors. Of course, being the seat of political power, it knows how to welcome tourists with splendor.
One of the bluest skies you can find, gardens and parks where the green almost seems stolen from a painting and a stunning sunset. So is the capital of Brazil. In Brasilia, the air we breathe is practically unpolluted. The approximately 2.5 million inhabitants of this city have known how to take care of it. And they also knew how to preserve it for today's visitors, so they'd be fascinated by all the cosmopolitan buildings, and not only. Brasilia prides for its architectural beauty - with the Metropolitan Cathedral, or Dom Bosco Sanctuary, for example - that have earned the award of World Cultural Heritage in 1987. Alongside its important political facilities (here is the Alvorada Palace, or the official residence of the President of Brazil, Dilma Roussef), there are many churches and monuments that you won't want to miss. And mentioning Brazil, one also has to mention of one of the most enviable climates in the world. Here, temperatures along the year are around 21 degrees, but the maximum can reach 29.7 ° C in September. Since the minimum can fall up to 12.5 ° C in July

IC Design Customer Success
View quotes for:
Calibre Products
"The thing that pushed us to Calibre was the speed. Some of the engineers here had developed a new quick design flow in a compact process. We were struggling with Assura (running 20+ hours). Without major tweaking, Calibre was able to run in less then 5 hours."
Jake Wright, AMI Semiconductor | source: DeepChip
"Calibre's extensive rule file coverage, design-style independence and on-time customer support made it the best choice for the complex designs our customers are creating. Selecting Calibre ensures customers a confident design transfer and a smooth manufacturing process"
Stephen Kuo, Design Service Department Manager, Technology Development Unit
"One thing I like about Calibre DRC is that I have ability to verify and record all Design Rule Waivers. I can reload this waived file during iteration of refining and tweaking design at last stage, the waived errors are all marked already. It saves huge time when I have over a thousand markers in a design deviating from the foundry Design Rule"
Michelle Lee, Guidant Corp. | source: DeepChip
"The Calibre tool is production-proven and offers a single, robust platform from design to silicon. The fact that the Calibre tool is an industry standard worldwide was also a major factor in its selection as our internal standard"
Yao Zeqiang, Ph.D., Deputy Director, Product Engineering Department, Hau Hong NEC
"Calibres robust extraction syntax and circuit compare capabilities allow it to properly check even the most difficult analog circuitry without impacting full-chip performance."
Carl Dickey, Mixed-Signal Strategist, IBM Microelectronics SiGe BiCMOS Foundry
"Our long history and successful track record with Calibre/xCalibre were key factors in our selection process. Calibre and xCalibres excellent mixed-signal/RF capabilities, including advanced device recognition, extraction accuracy, and tight design environment integration, will provide us with the tools we need to offer a best-in-class production-proven environment for our customers advanced semiconductor designs."
Marco Racanelli, Executive Director of Research and Development, Jazz Semiconductor
"Calibres robust extraction syntax and circuit compare capabilities allow it to properly check even the most difficult analog circuitry without impacting full-chip performance."
Rodney Jacks, Senior CAD Engineer, Motorola
"Calibre offers a unique combination of performance, accuracy, and capability allowing us to implement an optimal recipe for our 0.095 micron process. Calibre is already in use with our 0.180 and 0.150 micron technologies, and NEC is aggressively moving forward with advanced semiconductor processes. Calibre is a key enabler in accelerating this schedule."
Dr. Kazuhiko Takamizawa, Senior Manager of System LSI Design Engineering Division, LSI
"Without Calibre, we were unable to properly verify designs with more than a million gates. Calibre offers speed, capacity and ease of use with our advanced technologies. It also allows us to compete more effectively with other leading manufacturers in this market segment."
Jamshed Qamar, Vice president, ASIC Business Development, Oki Semiconductor
"Selecting Calibre as the standard for our verification tool platform ensures that our customers designs are flawless and the ensuing manufacturing process is smooth. Calibres extensive rule file coverage and advanced resolution enhancement technologies make it the best technology choice for our customers and partners."
Victor Kwong. Vice President of Design Solutions, Silterra
"Calibres extensive rule file coverage is production-proven, ensuring that our customers and design partners gain a smooth transition to manufacture. Advanced device recognition capabilities and design-style independence make Calibre one of the best choices for the complex designs our customers are developing."
Dr. James Sung, Vice President of Marketing and Sales, SMIC
"We now use the same comprehensive Calibre rule files for cell/block verification as we do for full-chip verification. This gives us the confidence that the design will be successful through tapeout with the least amount of iteration necessary. After many successful silicon runs at .12 micron using Calibre OPC tools, we have standardized on it for our high-volume, production-level .10 micron processes."
D. Goubier, Reticle Assembly Team Manager, Central R&D, STMicroelectronics
"Calibre LVS and DRC is still the industry leader for cell level to full-chip backend verification. Calibre xRC is essential for the design process as it can provide parasitic data in various formats that can used by simulation tools (ie., spice, DSPF, SPEF). The availability to run on 64-bit linux multi-processor machines allows for reasonable full-chip debug."
Steven Chin, Stretch, Inc. | source: DeepChip
"Calibre is unfettered by any restrictive proprietary format or framework, which made it a perfect fit in our overall CAD strategy. And its multi-threading capability really made this tool fly on 12 CPU machines in our compute farm."
Ward Verycrusse, Senior CAD Architect, Sun Microsystems
"Combining Mentor Graphics Calibre rules to TIs design tool capabilities will give our customers the ability to perform comprehensive physical verification of ASIC and mixed-signal system-on-a-chip (SoC) designs. We are excited to use Calibre to help enable widespread use of TIs silicon technology with our leading customers."
Bill Giolma, Worldwide Customer-Owned Tooling Manager, Texas Instruments
"We chose Calibre because it offers a single design-to-silicon platform that meets our requirements for performance, capacity and accuracy. Using Calibre not only streamlines our internal processes, thereby improving time to market, but also ensures that our customers receive fully qualified and extensive rule file support, which gives them a distinct market advantage."
Sergio Kusevitzky, Vice President of IP and Design Services, Tower Semiconductor
"Design engineers can rely on high-quality Calibre rule files to verify their designs for TSMC silicon. Not only do we put them through TSMCs rigorous double-blind QA procedure, but, because Calibre has been used to verify designs in our production environment for the last 2.5 years, we know that they cover real-world design conditions."
Genda Hu, Vice President of Marketing, TSMC
"At the 90nm technology generation, it becomes increasingly important for our customers to seamlessly move from design to successful silicon due to the complexity of modern SOC designs. Calibre rule files, production-proven for five years at UMC, receive extensive qualification to smooth the transition from tape-out to manufacture, thus reducing cost and time-to-profit for our customers."
Ken Liou, Division Director, Design Support Division, UMC
"After using all three of the major hierarchial tools, you'd have to work really hard to make me give up Calibre. The biggest reason is that its debugging capability is so far ahead of all the other tools out there."
Ron Talaga, Vitesse Semiconductor | source: DeepChip
"X-FAB will offer its customers complete Mentor EDA support for the newly developed X-FAB master kits. These mixed-signal design kits support the complete Mentor verification product line with Calibre DRC and Calibre LVS for physical verification and xCalibre for parasitic extraction, as well as the newest simulation tools based on the Mentor Graphics IC Flow and Design Architect-IC, including ADVance MS, Eldo and Modelsim."
Thomas Ramsch, Manager Design Support, X-FAB Group
"We worked with Mentor Graphics to qualify Olympus-SoC for our 40nm process. All our requirements were met and we expect designers to benefit as they move to TSMC's most advanced production process."
Sameer Halepete, vice president of ASIC Engineering at NVIDIA
"We worked with Mentor Graphics to qualify Olympus-SoC for our 40nm process. All our requirements were met and we expect designers to benefit as they we expect designers to benefit as they move to TSMC's most advanced production process."
S.T. Juang, Senior Director of Design Infrastructure Marketing, TSMC
"We used Olympus-SoC to tape out an advanced set-top box chip containing 12 million gates and manufactured using an 80nm process. We are extremely pleased with the Olympus-SoC product's ability to deliver this first-pass functional silicon, and we are impressed with the overall quality of results including design rule check (DRC) clean routing, multi-corner-multi-mode timing closure, and fast runtimes for large capacity chips."
Thierry Bauchon, R&D Director, Home Entertainment & Displays Group, STMicroelectronics
"We used the new timing and optimization technology in Olympus-SoC for the extremely complicated EMMA design, which has over 30 million gates, four modes and four corners, a 200MHz main clock, and over 150 derived clocks. We are very impressed with Olympus-SoC's performance improvements, which provided almost a factor of four reduction in our design closure time."
Mr. Masao Hirasawa, General Manager, Digital Consumer LSI Division, NEC Electronics Corporation
Analog/Mixed-Signal Verification Products
"Our investment in a new methodology encompassing full mixed-signal and RF verification using the Mentor simulation suite paid off immediately. For the first time we were able to completely verify this next-generation wireless chip prior to manufacturing."
Morten Kroman, Vice President Research and Development, Widex
"STMicroelectronics is a leader in delivering a complete CMOS 32nm design solution to our customers that optimizes design productivity for low power designs without compromising the performance, quality or the silicon correlation. To achieve this goal, we have built a reliable ecosystem with our long term partner, Mentor. We worked together to develop a robust solution for the design and characterization of our libraries for our worldwide design teams."
Gérard Mas, CMOS Libraries Group, Director of the Technology Research and Development, STMicroelectronics
"We are impressed with the performance we observed from ADiT software in several mixed-signal projects, as using ADiT helped us meet our time-to-market criteria, ADiT is now one of our standard sign-off tools for mixed-signal IP that targets our 0.13-micron and below processes."
Ken Liou, Director of Design Support Division, UMC
"Given the data volume, manual inspection is not an option. The entire characterization must be a 'push-button' automated process, even when each individual simulation is a challenge with these advanced technology nodes and associated models. We developed quite a sophisticated infrastructure to achieve this goal, and Mentor demonstrated the required reactivity, resources, and engineering commitment to let us reach the desired productivity level."
Laurent Bergher, CMOS Standard Cell Libraries Group Manager, STMicroelectronics

Morning – Melanie Gluck, MasterCard
Afternoon – Tucker Foote, MasterCard
Morning Session: The Next Generation of Payments: The Future is Now
There is an urgent need for U.S. Payment Providers to position EMV and Mobile technology as strategic imperatives.
Have any of the following questions been addressed at your credit union?
- What is EMV?
- How is it used outside of the U.S.?
- Why are we talking about it now?
- What are the liability shift timelines for issuers and merchants?
- What are the key benefits (reduced fraud and loyalty/usage uptake)
- What is our strategy related to EMV?
- Do we agree it's important?
- Do we think the time is right to think about reissue on a mass or rolling basis?
- How long would it take to be ready?
- Have we discussed a mobile payments strategy?
- Are we concerned about losing transactions?
To address these issues, we are pleased to present a Retail Payments Strategy Discussion. The program will feature an overview of EMV and Mobile Technology and how they will affect your short- and long-term retail strategies.
Afternoon Session: Payment Systems Legislation & Regulatory Compliance
Given the current credit regulation tenor and speculation on the possibility of heightened oversight, this workshop will address how to protect your debit and credit card operations from further
legislative intervention.
Specific legislative topics will include:
- The merchant community's lobbying efforts to expand interchange regulations;
- Future restrictions on prepaid products; and,
- Data security legislation with a specific focus on notification procedures and breach liability requirements.
NCUA's Letter to Federal Credit Unions #11-FCU-02, issued in February of 2011, requires that directors of FCUs "must have at least a working familiarity with basic finance and accounting practices, including the ability to read and understand the credit union's balance sheet and income statement."
It continues, "A director must understand these financial statements to participate in a meaningful manner in the direction and control of the institution."
This session will be for NEW DIRECTORS who have joined your board since the last required training in the fall of 2012. This will be a two-hour session from 5:00-7:00 p.m. Sandwiches will be served. There is no cost to attend.
Topics will include:
• Balance sheet and income statement basics
• What does 'off balance sheet' mean
• The importance of trend analysis (tables or graphs)
• Key financial ratios
• What does 'accrual accounting' mean
• Delinquency reporting
• What is the Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses contra asset account and how is it related to the Provision for Loan and Lease expense
• NCUA 5300 quarterly reports
• Budgeting and ALM basics
• The risks: credit, liquidity, interest rate, compliance, strategic, transaction, and reputation
• Peer analysis
• Internal controls
• Asking the right questions
The Truth in Lending Act (TILA) and the implementing regulation, Regulation Z, is a significant part of lending compliance. This session will be an introduction to TILA and Regulation Z, covering definitions, open-end loan disclosure requirements, closed-end loan disclosure requirements, as well as the special requirements for mortgages and credit cards. Attendees will learn the basics about compliance with this significant lending law.
The webinar will be followed by an 'open discussion' at the conclusion of the program.

To register please contact Susan O'Loughlin at email@example.com.
During the 2013 legislative session, the CT General Assembly passed a bill that allows credit unions to offer savings promotion raffles – savings products that offer prizes in order to incent increased savings activity. Connecticut is the 8thstate to pass similar legislation, following in the footsteps of Nebraska, Rhode Island, Washington, North Carolina, Maryland, Maine, and Michigan.As financial institutions, you are acutely aware of the importance of savings as part of someone's financial portfolio.
The webinar will feature Doorways to Dreams Fund, a national non-profit that has been providing technical assistance, advice, and evaluation for PLS products around the country. In this webinar, we will cover:
- The basics of PLS
- Overview of Connecticut law
- Success/Impact in other states
- Implementation considerations/how-tos
Please join us for a great conversation. Attending this webinar is not considered to be an indication of commitment to offer the product – the goal of the meeting is to get a shared understanding of the opportunity, discuss options in Connecticut, and see what credit unions would like to explore a prize-linked savings product. Please share this invitation with any relevant staff or other credit union partners.

About GHRI Ratings
XGood Housekeeping Research Institute (GHRI) ratings are based on laboratory tests conducted by our scientists at the U.S.'s foremost consumer products evaluation laboratory, and incorporate consumer feedback. GHRI is situated on the 29th floor of the Hearst Tower in New York City and is staffed by chemists, engineers, nutritionists, textile specialists, culinary experts, and other scientists.
Using state-of-the-art equipment, GHRI experts test consumer products — from microwaves to mascaras — for their performance, safety, and, with the help of volunteer testers, ease of use.
Established in 1900, before there was a Federal Drug Administration or a Federal Trade Commission, GHRI has always been the most trusted source consumers can rely on to choose products that are safe and effective.
For the reasonable price, this wheeled backpack from CaliforniaPak can store a substantial amount of your childs school books or travel items. Its fabric and top grab handle are durabletheyll be able to withstand any amount of dragging. Our kid testers found the telescopic handle to be an ideal height, although it was hard to slide in and out. Some thought its compartments and zippers could be more kid-friendly. They also did not find it comfortable to roll aroundthe wheels had a tendency to stick and the bag fell over numerous times during testing. We would also not suggest taking it out in the rain, as the fabric didnt dry quickly from the labs water repellency tests. Children approved of the color and pattern assortments for the backpack. calpaks.com.

Flower Olivia Accent Table
Super cute and east to put together!
Purchased this item for use as bedside table. This table was so easy to put together as well as cute.
October 22, 2013
Olivia Accent Table
The table is darling .....I really like it....however the color I received is not the color of the one in the store or the picture online. It is quite a bit darker more green then turquoise . It would not have caught my eye originally in this color...that being said..it is a good design...no it would not take a rough and tumble of a normal side chair...but great for a book and sweet tea :)
November 27, 2013
a different look
The flower olivia accent table is steady enough to hold a lamp, ample enough to hold a book and a cup of coffee, and different in its look to add a touch of loveliness to any room in combination with other types of furniture. I am very pleased with my purchase.
November 6, 2013
So cute!
I love to mix styles and this is a great touch of rustic and whimsical. I love this table. It adds a really fun splash of color and style.
January 2, 2012
Cute but Unstable
I bought this table last night and really love the way it looks, but after assembling it, I noticed that it's extremely unstable and tips over. This table needs 4 legs not three to support it all the way around. I will be returning this item.

Mentor Graphics Tessent YieldInsight Demonstrates Faster IC Failure and Yield Analysis at Fujitsu
WILSONVILLE, Ore., March 18, 2011 - Mentor Graphics Corporation (NASDAQ: MENT) today announced evaluation results at Fujitsu Semiconductor Ltd. that shows the Tessent® YieldInsight® diagnosis-driven yield analysis tool can help cut the time required to determine the cause of IC yield loss. By correlating production test results and physical design information, the product reduces the time to pinpoint yield loss mechanisms without requiring intimate knowledge of the manufacturing process. The Tessent YieldInsight tool can help accelerate customers' ramp to production volume, quickly resolve yield excursions, and improve their mature yield, leading to increased profitability, lower defects-per-million (DPM) rates, and higher customer satisfaction.
According to Takahiro Fujimi, Manager of the Product Engineering Department, Product Technology Division, Fujitsu Semiconductor Limited, "We evaluated Mentor's yield analysis technology on a 15 million gate design manufactured on a 65 nm process. When used together with Mentor's Tessent TestKompress® ATPG product, we found Tessent YieldInsight to be very effective in quickly and accurately identifying the actual physical locations of many IC failures. The product's intuitive graphical interface is consistent with traditional yield analysis techniques and enables product engineers to be more effective in identifying yield problems and determining the cause of systematic defects."
"Tessent YieldInsight is exciting new technology because it addresses time-to-market and manufacturing cost issues, both critical factors in the profitability of IC products," said Joseph Sawicki, Vice President and General Manager of Mentor's Design to Silicon division. "Customers can use the product to easily resolve problems with ramping production volume for new products, and they can use it to maximize mature product yield. Tessent YieldInsight represents an innovative new use of test data that already exists in our customers' production flows."
About Tessent YieldInsight
The Mentor Graphics Tessent solution combines the automated scan test failure collection and diagnosis capabilities in the Tessent Diagnosis tool with advanced statistical analysis and data mining techniques in the Tessent YieldInsight product. The Tessent YieldInsight tool uses design-correlated analysis methods that supplement traditional fab-centric yield management systems. In a manner consistent with yield and failure analysis tools, it steps the user through the process of selecting and filtering populations of failing die, grouping die that are failing for similar reasons, and analyzing various aspects of these populations to identify and locate systematic yield loss mechanisms.
About Mentor Graphics
Mentor Graphics Corporation (NASDAQ: MENT) is a world leader in electronic hardware and software design solutions, providing products, consulting services and award-winning support for the world's most successful electronic, semiconductor and systems companies. Established in 1981, the company reported revenues over the last 12 months of about $915 million. Corporate headquarters are located at 8005 S.W. Boeckman Road, Wilsonville, Oregon 97070-7777.

Welcome Kathryn from Penn State. One of the best things about the holidays: sexy red Mrs. Claus dresses. Kinda creepy when you think about it since the real Mrs. Claus would be like a thousand years old and morbidly obese from all the cookies, milk, and deep-fried elves. Makes me glad the ones around here are Smokes.
Nominate a Smokeshow — email facebook links to email@example.com. And if you wanna actually PARTY with Smokes, you know, in an open venue with foam and lasers and smoke and thumping bass, then maybe you should get tickets to our Barstool Blackout Foam Tour show at the Electric Factory. Just saying. Last time was kind of a big deal.

Cute but DON"T USE CHALK MARKERS!
I purchased this for my wedding and I used a wet erase chalk board marker on it. If the marker hasn't dried, its erasable, but if you allow the marker to dry, it is permanent on this surface. Unfortunately for me, I did not know this and when I went back to fix my mistake, it would not erase. My wedding is in 5 weeks and I do not want to purchase another board! I have yet to find a chemical that will remove the marker!

Greyson Fixed Dining Table
The perfect library desk for my study
I know everyone else is eating dinner on this thing, but I thought it would make a great library desk for my study. It's big enough for spreading out a big drawing project, or just piling up the Sunday paper. I could not be happier, it suits me and my old Colonial house to a T.
Mine had to be shipped and I panicked a bit when bolts were sticking out of the box before I even began to open it (they were poorly secured before shipping I think) but I hunted down all the loose bolts running around in the box and found what I needed - no escapees in shipping.
I pretty much assembled it myself in less than and hour, but had a friend help me turn it right side up and move it into place. I love this thing.
September 27, 2013
We are so pleased with this product! Sturdy, beautifully made! At first we thought it would be to bulky and masculine, however this table turned out to be so elegant and amazing!
September 23, 2013
Beautiful and substantial piece!
I ordered this table to use as a desk in my office at work. It is beautiful and makes a statement. Everyone who come in comments on how beautiful it is. I can't speak to the assembly because I ordered several pieces and hired a company to assemble all the pieces at once. I would buy this for my home.
September 23, 2013
This table is absolutely beautiful! It's very solid, study and looks expensive at a great price! Would highly recommend! Looks great with the greayson chairs.
September 10, 2013
We love this table
We bought this dining table a few months ago from the store in Columbia, SC. It is everything I wanted, size, looks and quality. We love it! It's going to last thru all the ruff stuff everyday use can produce !
August 28, 2013
Bold and beautiful!
Mu husband and I just drove from Boca Raton to Naples to purchase this table this past Sunday. It is absolutely gorgeous, super sturdy and we bought the Linen Lydia chairs to go with it. Needless to say the combination turned out beautiful. We have received nothing but compliments from everyone who has seen it so far and we are very happy with our purchase. We greatly recommend it!
August 27, 2013
Looks amazing
This table looks better than I even had in my head! Looks great, hard, heavy, durable, easy to clean. Would definitely recommend!
May 30, 2013
A lot of bang for your buck!
I spent a lot of time considering different tables before purchasing the Greyson. I wish that it were extendable, as opposed to a fixed length, but besides that I LOVEEEE this table. It looks so expensive. It's extremely heavy (you've been warned!), and substantial looking. It just completely gives my dining room the look I was hoping for. I decided to pair it with the Garner chairs because I didn't want to deal with any upholstery, but I honestly think that this chair would pair well with any chair; it's very versatile!

What role does realism play in visualization and simulations? When is realism important and when is it not? How does the selection of media impact learning and communication outcomes? How and when do you use mixed media? What determines those choices? Discussions on these and many other topics are just some of the things that Eric Kramer and Natascha Blijleven will be facilitating at VizThink Europe '08 in Berlin this October.
On Tuesday, July 22nd, VizThink will be releasing our first research report. Created in conjunction with Brandon-Hall Research, this report examines 14 case studies of visualization in learning, including a feature on Eric and Natascha's work with the Netherlands Police department. Their facinating project created a virtual city where police could solve various crimes as part of a learning simulation. It contains a large variety of mixed media including videos, photos, sketches, 3D models, interactive panoramas, and diagrams just to name a few. In police work, the visual clues (and cues) are often an important part of a crime scene. How do you know what to watch for? How real do the visuals need to be to be able transfer the learning from the simulation to the real world?
Eric was originally professor of mathematics, physics and information science. Since 1996, Eric Kramer has been the educational project manager at TriMM interactive media in the Netherlands. Since 2000, Natascha has worked as an Educational Policy Advisor at the Dutch Police Academy. As educational advisor Natascha is concerned with designing and implementation of ICT in the competence based Police education.
