Children (4-8yrs), Pre-teen (9-12yrs)
The Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum is a natural history museum, zoo, and botanical garden containing exhibits with over 300 animal species and 1,200 types of plants. It covers 21 acres and includes two miles of paths. The purpose of the museum is to re-create the natural landscape in order to educate visitors about wildlife in the region.
As you will learn at the museum, surviving in the desert can be difficult. But, surviving in the desert is made easier when you take advantage of a special process called condensation that is used by many insects and small animals to survive in the desert.

Here are some things going on this morning in your world of tech:
Shares of Hewlett-Packard (HPQ) are down 53 cents, or 1.7%, at $29.66, after the company yesterday afternoon beat fiscal Q1 expectations, and forecast this quarter's profit slightly below consensus.
There are not ratings changes this morning, that I can see, but some price targets are going higher. There's still a sharp divide between those who believe in the rebirth of HP under CEO Meg Whitman, and those who are dismissive.
Citigroup's Jim Suva this morning reiterates a Buy rating on the shares, and a $40 price target, writing that cash flow was the real positive surprise: "investor and analyst concerns about weak cash flow and that it could drop to below $1 billion and maybe as low as $500m were unfounded as HP reported cash flow from operations of $3 billion which was even above our street high estimate of $2 billion."
But ISI Group's Brian Marshall, reiterating a Neutral rating, wonders if this is "the apotheosis of the HP remake," given that "We applaud management creating a much strong organization through 'nuts and bolts' improvements but secular and competitive pressures remain as intense as ever and we do not believe HPQ's technology asset base is evolving fast enough to keep up."
Shares of Groupon (GRPN) are down $1.83, or almost 18%, at $8.45, after the company yesterday afternoon beat Q4 expectations, and forecast higher revenue this quarter, but displayed profit margin metrics that unnerved the Street. The stock gets one downgrade this morning, from Mark Mahaney of RBC Capital Markets, who cut his rating to Underperform from Sector Perform, and cut his price target to $7 from $11, citing three negatives in the report: an outlook for Ebitda " a lot lower than we had through," a decline in billings growth last quarter to 5% from 10% in the prior quarter, and net customer additions of only 900,000 in North America.
Writes Mahaney, "The challenge is that the Goods and Travel markets that GRPN wants to succeed in are extremely competitive with very well-entrenched competitors – AMZN, EBAY, PCLN, EXPE. We may be overly pessimistic on the company's ability to succeed in this transition – but we also believe that even if it does succeed, the required duration of this transition makes buying GRPN shares now a risky deal."
Shares of Juniper Networks (JNPR) are up 25 cents, or 0.9%, at $27.66, after the company yesterday evening unveiled an expected restructuring, its "Integrated operating plan," which involves "streamlining" its business and also paying out $3 billion to shareholders in dividends and repurchases over three years.
The stock has received some votes of approval this morning, including from MKM Partners's Michael Genovese, who reiterates a Buy rating, and arises his price target a a dollar to $34, after raising his estimates for this year for profit to $1.61 from $1.50, on the same $4.96 billion in revenue estimate. Genovese writes, "It is solidly positive that Juniper is taking the shareholder value enhancing steps outlined in the IOP […] Juniper engaged in a constructive conversation with shareholders including Elliott Management as it formulated the IOP details." referring to the activist firm that had been pushing for reform.
"That said, our upgrade of the stock in mid-October 2013 was and continues to be based on improving Service Provider Router demand and our belief that Juniper will gain share in 2014-2015."
Investors can expect to hear more from Juniper during the big telecom and mobile trade show that kicks off Sunday in Barcelona, the Mobile World Congress.
Shares of Qlik Technologies (QLIK) are up 78 cents, or almost 3%, at $28.70, after the company yesterday afternoon beat Q4 expectations, though offered a forecast for this quarter a tad light of consensus.
CLSA Asia-Pacific Markets's Ed Maguire reiterates a Buy rating on the shares, writing that the focus is on the major product overhaul that's been in the works, "QlikView.Next": Management noted that expenses but not revenue contribution from the pending QlikView.Next release are reflected in 2014 guidance. QlikView 11 will remain the key growth driver for 2014."
"QlikView.Next is a major platform upgrade, and as such does have some potential for disruption. The product goes into beta testing within the next few weeks with release later in 2014. It's our view that this approach is conservative and helps position the story for upside surprises throughout 2014."
Shares of chip maker Marvell Technology Group (MRVL) are down 32 cents, or 2%, at $15.80, after the company this afternoon reported fiscal Q4 revenue and earnings per share that topped analysts' expectations, and forecast this quarter's results higher as well.
Revenue in the three months ended in January rose 20%, year over year, to $932 million, yielding EPS of 29 cents per share.
Analysts had been modeling $901 million and 25 cents per share.
Gross margin, on a non-GAAP basis, dipped slightly to 50.1% from the prior quarter's 50.3%, and the year-earlier quarter's 53.2%.
CEO Sehat Sutardja called the full fiscal year "the start of a turnaround" for the company, adding that "We are investing in advanced technologies that will help drive increased business opportunities and continued revenue and profit growth in all of our target end markets."
For the current quarter, the company sees revenue of $870 million to $910 million, and EPS in a range of 20 cents to 24 cents. That compares to Street consensus for $849 million and 21 cents per share. Gross margin is seen in a range of 49% to 51%.
Shares of wireless networking vendor Aruba Networks (ARUN) are up 92 cents, or 4.4%, at $22, in late trading, after the company this afternoon reported fiscal Q2 revenue and earnings per share that topped consensus, and said its board of directors approved an additional $200 million in share buybacks.
Revenue in the three months ended in January rose almost 14%, year over year, to $176.4 million, yielding earnings per share of 18 cents.
Analysts had on average been modeling $168 million and 17 cents per share.
Separately, the company said its board authorized $200 million in buybacks, replacing the prior $300 million repurchase program, which has been almost entirely spent.
Shares of data visualization and analytics software vendor Qlik Technologies (QLIK) are up $1.78, over 6%, at $29.70, after the company this afternoon reported Q4 revenue and profit per share that topped analysts' expectations, forecast this quarter's results below consensus, and forecast the year's revenue in line with expectations.
Revenue in the three months ended in December rose almost 18%, year over year, to $161.8 million, yielding EPS of 31 cents.
Analysts had been modeling $158 million and 30 cents.
CEO Lars Björk said the company was "pleased" with the results, and that "We saw continued strength in the enterprise, leveraged our global reach and scale and made additional advances across our portfolio of products and solutions."
The company's forecast "reflects our confidence in our ability to continue to disrupt the BI market and increase the value we deliver to our global customer base," he went on to say.
"We plan to continue to invest in our products, partners, sales and services teams which we believe will drive growth, extend our leading role in this space and increase market share over time."
For the current quarter, the company sees revenue in a range of $110 million to $114 million, and a net loss of 12 cents to 14 cents per share. That compares to the average $113 million and and a 5-cent loss per share.
For the full year, the company sees revenue in a range of $545 million to $555 million, and EPS of 23 cents to 27 cents. That compares to consensus for $550 million and 42 cents per share.
Qlik competes with a variety of companies, but in particular, Tableau Software (DATA), which beat Q4 expectations on February 4th.
Shares of online travel broker Priceline.com (PCLN) are up $2, or at $1,285, after the company this afternoon reported Q4 revenue and profit per share that topped analysts' expectations, but forecast this quarter's results short of consensus.
Revenue in the three months ended in December rose to $1.54 billion, yielding EPS of $8.85.
Analysts had been modeling $1.52 billion and $8.29 per share.
Gross travel bookings in the quarter rose 38.8%, year over year, to $9.1 billion, the company said.
CEO Darren Huston called the quarter's results "strong," pointing out the 37% jump in room night reservations for the full year, representing "only modest deceleration on a large scale business."
For the current quarter, the company sees ESP of $6.35 per share to $6.85 per share, below the average $7.21-per-share estimate. Revenue is expected to rise 15% to 25%, year over year, which is below the average 27% growth rate the Street has been projecting.
That forecast assumes gross travel bookings will rise 23% to 33% this quarter.
Hewlett-Packard (HPQ) shares are up 26 cents, or 0.8%, at $30.45, after the company this afternoon beat Street revenue and earnings per share estimates for its fiscal Q1, and forecast this quarter's profit slightly below consensus, and raised the low end of its profit forecast for the year, which is roughly in line with consensus.
Revenue in the three months ended in January fell 1%, year over year, to $28.2 billion, yielding EPS of 90 cents.
The Street had been looking for $27.2 billion and 84 cents.

The printing business saw revenue decline 2%, with a 5% rise in hardware units, and a 3% decline in supplies revenue.

Gross margin came in at 22.8%, down slightly from 22.98% a year earlier, while operating margin rose to 8.5% from 7.9%, on a non-GAAP basis.
CEO Meg Whitmanremarked,
HP is in a stronger position today than we've been in quite some time. The progress we're making is reflected in growth across several parts of our portfolio, the growing strength of our balance sheet, and the strong support we're receiving from customers and channel partners. Innovation is igniting our comeback, and at a time when many of our competitors are confronting new challenges, two years of turnaround work is setting us up for an exciting future.
For the current quarter, HP sees profit per share of 85 cents to 89 cents, below the consensus for 89 cents.
For the full year, the company sees profit of $3.60 to $3.75, up from a prior precast of $3.55 to $3.75, compared to the average $3.67-per-share estimate.

Gross profit in the quarter was 49%, down from 56% a year earlier.
CEO Erik Lefkofsky remarked,
Our record performance in the quarter was led by strength in Goods, as shoppers increasingly looked to Groupon to fill their holiday needs.

With another 9 million downloads this quarter, we now have nearly 70 million app downloads to date.

Shares of Rubicon Technology (RBCN), which makes sapphire substrates that are used in production of light-emitting diode products, and other devices, are down 72 cents, or almost 7%, at $10.08, after the company this afternoon reported Q4 revenue just shy of analysts' estimates, and a net loss in line with consensus, and forecast this quarter's revenue also just shy of consensus.
Revenue in the three months ended in December fell to $11.5 million, yielding a net loss of 22 cents.
Analysts had been modeling $11.7 million and a 22-cent loss per share.
The company said sales of sapphire is in general on the rebound, driven by applications such as Apple's (AAPL) iPhone 5S home button:
Overall demand for sapphire continued its rebound with the growing momentum of the general lighting segment of the LED market and demand from non-LED applications for mobile devices, such as the sapphire home button on the iPhone 5S, as well as the camera lens cover now being adopted by more smartphone manufacturers.
CEO Raja Parvez remarked that the company had made progress on product categories such as "patterned sapphire wafers" during the quarter:
While wafer revenue was low in the fourth quarter, we continued to make good progress on our patterned sapphire substrate ("PSS") and polished wafer initiatives. We are very pleased with the progress on the PSS product introduction. We announced the introduction of the PSS product in October and we have already received requests for samples from sixteen different customers, which we believe positions us to meet our 2014 revenue target for PSS wafers of at least $15 million. In addition, we received our first production order of four-inch polished wafers for the first quarter and expect orders from existing customers of six inch LED wafers to begin picking up in the second quarter.
CFO William Weissman said the company's low utilization of its plants continued to weigh on gross profit margin, but that there had been improvement in margin during the quarter. He said the "re-starting of our crystal growth furnaces" would help lower "idle plant costs" this year and boost margins further.
Still, he said the company's continued losses meant Rubicon will maintain a valuation allowance:
Due to the loss in the fourth quarter of 2013, we are in a cumulative loss position for the past three years which is considered by the accounting standards to be significant negative evidence which is very difficult to overcome. While our financial outlook for the company remains positive, under the accounting standards objective negative evidence is given greater weight than other subjective positive evidence such as our projections for future growth. Consequently, this has led us to establish a valuation allowance in the current quarter. We will maintain the tax valuation allowance and no longer accrue tax benefits or tax expense on our income statement until an appropriate level of profitability is attained.
For the current quarter, the company sees revenue at around $13 million, below the average $13.8 million estimate.
Management will host a conference call with analysts at 5 pm, Eastern time, this evening, and you can catch a webcast of it on the company's investor relations home page.
Semiconductor design software vendor Synopsys (SNPS) this afternoon reported fiscal Q1 revenue that slightly missed analysts' estimates, but beat on the bottom line, but forecast this quarter's, and the full year's, revenue below expectations.
Revenue in the three months ended in December rose about 1%, year over year, to $479 million, yielding EPS of 59 cents, excluding some costs.
Analysts had been modeling $482 million and 52 cents per share.
The results compare to Synopsys's own forecast, offered back in December, for $475 million to $485 million, and 51 cents to 53 cents per share.
In a supplementary document, Synopsys said its "Core EDA" sales came in at $308.9 million, up from $300.5 million a year earlier. Sales of "IP & Systems" were down year over year, while services revenue rose.
CEO Aart de Geus remarked that "While customers are cautious in their spending, technology demands continue unabated, making great EDA and IP solutions essential for their success."
For the current quarter, the company sees revenue in a range of $505 million to $515 million, and EPS, excluding some costs, of 60 cents to 62 cents. That is below the average estimate for $520 million and 64 cents.
For the full year, the company sees revenue in a range of $2.03 billion to $2.065 billion, and EPS of $2.55 to $2.60, excluding some costs. That compares to the Street's $2.075 billion and $2.57 per share.

Analysts, on average, had been modeling $1.16 billion and 45 cents.

For the current quarter, the company sees revenue of $1.17 billion to $1.21 billion, and EPS of 42 cents to 47 cents. That compares to the average estimate on the Street of $1.15 billion and 46 cents.

Cholesterol is being talked about a lot these days, and almost all the reports are confusing. They make "cholesterol" sound like a really bad thing to have. They don't tell you that your own body manufactures cholesterol in the liver.
According to Taber's Cyclopedic Medical Dictionary, cholesterol "is synthesized in the liver and is a normal constituent of bile....It is important in metabolism serving as a precursor to various steroid hormones (e.g., sex hormones, adrenal corticoids)."
Some people are inclined to manufacture more cholesterol than needed, for genetic reasons. It runs in the family. In other cases, too much cholesterol can be caused by a diet too heavy in the wrong kinds of fats, combined with too little exercise to burn up the calories, and being overweight.
Weight loss, changes in diet, and getting brisk exercise can go a long way to maintaining wellness.
Blood pressure is basically a simple thing. Your doctor measures it to determine how strongly the blood is pumping through your veins. This gives the doctor a general idea of the health of your veins and heart. Most of the time, this system works perfectly, but a few things can cause difficulties.
If your results are high, it's called high blood pressure, or hypertension.
If your veins accumulate debris, the inside of the "hose" is narrowed at that spot. The heart then has to work harder to force your blood through the narrowed area. This increases the pressure in your vascular system, and causes an extra strain on your heart, just as it does with a garden hose.
In most cases you won't notice any symptoms of this condition. Your blood vessels won't swell noticeably; there won't be any bruising, and certainly no pain. You might notice a slightly faster heart beat, but probably not. This is why you need your doctor to test your blood pressure.
This is why it's very important to support and maintain a normal healthy blood pressure.

Album Review
Composer Henry Brant is a significant figure in contemporary music and, in 2006, is the second to last man standing who participated in the first wave of American modernism (Elliott Carter is the other). Brant has never been well represented on recordings but, thanks to Innova, listeners are finally getting a comprehensive overview of the extensive catalog of this pioneer of American avant-garde, whose couple of hundred works span from the early '30s to the present time. Innova's The Henry Brant Collection, Vol. 2 includes three pieces belonging to the concerted genre, featuring a soloist or soloists along with an instrumental backing of some kind. As Brant has always trod his own path, reinventing the wheel with each new piece, it is inevitable that he should turn out a few duds, and unfortunately the opening work on Innova's The Henry Brant Collection, Vol. 2, Nomads, is one of them. It is a "third stream" triple concerto presented at Oberlin University in 1974 for improvised voice, saxophone, and a jazz drummer as soloist, with the Oberlin Wind Ensemble providing the ripieno, the only part of Nomads that is composed. The wind band tromps through music that would be suitable for a 1960s AIP-produced horror film as the improvised voice hollers about God knows what, the saxophone attempts to out-Pharoah Sanders Pharoah Sanders, and the drummer produces a jumble of drums. Nomads is staggeringly awful — like a tape that Alexander von Schlippenbach would have burned. However, as a "party piece" for a get-together of aspiring composer types, Nomads might have some functionality.
Solar Moth helps to redeem Brant at this point. It features the talents of another pioneer, violinist Daniel Kobialka, inventor of the Zeta Polyphonic violin. Kobialka lays down some dazzling tracks that are combined with layers of Brant himself contributing accompaniment on a variety of instruments. Solar Moth is quite good, although it is dense, tense, and claustrophobic, and over time can get on your nerves if you are not prepared to devote your undivided attention to it. This late analog studio recording was originally issued on Thomas Buckner's 1750 Arch Records label and is amazingly clear and realistic. Best of all is the double bass concerto Ghost Nets from 1988; the solo double bass part, played by Lewis Paer, is generous and different from the norm, although a lot of it is scored up in the cello range. The American Camerata under Brant and John Stephens provide a solid and respectful foundation, and the quality of the recording is outstanding. In sum, The Henry Brant Collection, Vol. 2 consists of one bad piece, one good piece, and one that could go either way; it's not quite the sure thing that Vol. 1 and Vol. 3 are in the same series, but if one is strongly interested in Henry Brant, even Nomads should not serve as a deterrent.

Turning warmer to finish the work week. Mild into Friday with a chance of patchy drizzle and light snow showers Friday, especially morning to midday. The weekend looks dry with cooler weather Saturday and warmer conditions Sunday.
WISCONSIN RAPIDS (WAOW) - A man already in prison pleaded not guilty Thursday to charges accusing him of killing a Wisconsin Rapids man five years ago.
Joseph Reinwand, 54, was charged with first-degree intentional homicide and arson in the slaying after prosecutors learned new information from one of Reinwand's former cell mates.
Reinwand is accused of fatally shooting 35-year-old Dale Meister three times at his home in Wisconsin Rapids in 2008.
Meister had been in a child custody dispute with Reinwand's daughter, who was Meister's former girlfriend, court records said.
One of Reinwand's one-time prison cell mates told authorities that Reinwand confessed to killing Meister and even reenacted it, the criminal complaint said.
No trial date was immediately set.

Are you partial to hearing the word 'viral' more times in half an hour than Robbie Williams has heard in a lifetime? Do you like looking at footage of genuinely disgusting infections festering in genuinely disgusting places of the human body? Well look no further than Channel 4's pioneering show aimed at shedding light on humiliating medical conditions: Embarrassing Bodies.
Last night's episode was a real beaut. Although the little girl with extreme foot fungus was pretty tragic, the rest of the programme exposed a myriad of putrid flesh eating bacteria, which made you want throw up in your mouth or laugh at the TV like a hyena on nitrous oxide.
Unfortunately we're so distracted by the shocking pictures of rotting armpit pores that we sadly learn absolutely nothing. Too bad. Apparently the programme is super informative. Who knew? Catch up on the latest episode here, or scroll down for a quick preview.

My husband and I went snorkeling with Suzzy on our Honeymoon last August about 30 minutes out of Kihea, Maui. We had a spectacular time! What we loved the most was Suzzy's knowledge about amazing reefs to snorkel in where the locals go, and seeing a black and white striped eel and many other bright fish that Suzzy pointed out and named for us! Lastly was Suzzy's joy for Maui, her smile radiates the true satisfaction she finds in taking people on tours. Suzzy brought snacks (fresh baked!) to the beach for after our tour. We had a blast with 2 other couples, we laughed a lot and the view and clear blue water was incredible! I highly recommend Suzzy's Maui Snorkel Tours. Bring a waterproof camera, chacos, a dress to throw over your suit and a towel! It's a half day event!

This talk was at CodeConnexx in Maastricht, which was a mixed web technologies and soft skills event. Since the audience were of many different technical disciplines, this talk aims more at HTTP-level advice rather than implementation details.
Teach A Man To Fish
The tech/work skills conference CodeConnexx was in Europe this year and I had the privilege of opening it with a keynote entitled "Teach a Man to Fish". My talk was a great opportunity to share some ideas I've had about professional development within teams, rather than just as individuals. I shared my own tactics for benchmarking and improving teams, and how to develop particular skills - and then how to scale up the benefits of the investment in learning by sharing it with your team.
Git Basics
OggCamp is an unconference, where the content is provided by the attendees. Apparently I am unable to attend this event without speaking or contributing in some way, and this year was no exception! I joined with some friends in presenting a "git basics" session. We talked about use cases and how it applies to open source, and I showed a few slides mixed with demo. The slides were from this deck, published by github themselves: http://teach.github.com/presentations/git-foundations.html#/
7 Ways Towards Better APIs
My netmagazine article has been posted on their new online home, Creative Bloq. I loved writing this post although it was hard work to rationalise my rant of all the things I really wish API designers would do (or NOT do!) down to just seven points, but they are all things that I think are important, achievable, and will make a real difference
Article: http://www.creativebloq.com/web-design/seven-ways-towards-better-apis-10134961
Debugging HTTP
This is my fun, geeky talk about Curl, Wireshark, and Charles - a toolkit that enables me to debug even the most peculiar and awkward-to-reach HTTP issues. The slides are fairly minimal, I interleaved each tool with a demonstration of it - actually a pre-recorded video so that I could talk at the same time and not mutter at my laptop which is how a live demo normally works.
0x0F Ways To Be A Better Developer
I co-presented this talk as the opening keynote to PHPNW with my good friend and colleague Ivo Jansch. We tried to pull the things that have made the most difference in our careers, and package up the best of those to share with the crowd. Since the keynote room isn't big enough for the entire audience, we knew we would need to video relay - so we video relayed in both directions and each presented half the talk in one of the rooms. Crazy? Yes, totally. But lots of fun and I hope we gave at least a few useful points to everyone there!

Area goal leader Braian Gomez was one of five Sierra Timberwolves named to the all-Valley Oak League first team.
Neither squad has anything to prove.
A strong showing on the 2009 season lifted Sierra High into the Sac-Joaquin Section Division III Volleyball Championships and some of the squads' top individual performers were recognized.
RIPON - Just getting to the Sac-Joaquin Section Division IV girls volleyball championship at UC Davis Thursday would have thrilled the seventh-seeded Summerville Bears, but the berth merely seemed like business as usual for No. 3 in its 3-0 sweep over the visiting Mother Lode League champions.
AUBURN - Ripon Christian is back in the Sac-Joaquin Section Division V title match for the third straight year with a chance to win a third straight title.
For the fourth straight season, in-town rivals Ripon and Ripon Christian are in the Sac-Joaquin Section's final-four round.
Manteca head coach Eric Reis tried to anticipate whom his team would face in the first round of the Sac-Joaquin Section Division III playoffs, narrowing it down to a handful of candidates.
FOLSOM – Those who were running in the Sac-Joaquin Section Cross Country meet had already outlasted most of the high school distance runners, but that was not enough for Sierra High senior John Bowers who extended his season with a berth in the CIF State Championships at Woodward Park in Fresno.
The Manteca High freshman football team used three second quarter touchdowns to blow past East Union High 56-0 in the Valley Oak League's final contest for the season.
When the Sierra High sophomore football team took care of business in a 28-0 thrashing of the Weston Ranch Cougars they had no idea what its reward would be.
Sierra High knew what it had to do to close out its Valley Oak League season, and there was nothing the Weston Ranch Cougars could do about it during a 35-14 league championship clinching victory at Daniel Teicheira Memorial Stadium.
No banners. No ceremonies.
Marquis Miller had a personal goal of scoring five touchdowns.
RIPON – After getting beat 11 straight times, it's safe to say that there's going to be a little bit of intimidation.
CERES - The third time was not the charm for Sierra.
STOCKTON -- The Weston Ranch Cougars came ready to play Friday against Manteca.
This may not be the veteran Sierra team that made the Sac-Joaquin Section Division III finals the last two years, but it is still Sierra.
Dave Asuncion slammed his clipboard to the hardwood violently during the third quarter of Thursday's Valley Oak League showdown at Winter Gym.
East Union High 2011 graduates TJ Gordon and Dominic Borba took similar routes to where they're currently at – taking their talents to NAIA schools and continuing their football careers.
Even in defeat, the East Union girls basketball team learned plenty about itself in Wednesday's Valley Oak League-opening contest with visiting Kimball.
STOCKTON - With a random draw to determine the starting weight in dual wrestling matches, the final bout of the night is not often between the heavyweights.
LATHROP -The Manteca High Buffaloes put behind their preseason woes to roll past the host Spartans on Wednesday, 42-26.
The Sierra girls basketball team went into halftime leading by a comfortable margin during its Valley Oak League opener against visiting Oakdale Wednesday night.
STOCKTON - Despite trailing in the third quarter and a 27-point effort from the Weston Ranch's Jaelen Ragsdale, visiting Sonora scored 30 points in the fourth to come back and win the Valley Oak League opener 68-62 on Tuesday night.

Softchoice Corporation, a value-added reseller of information technology in the United States and Canada, has filed pleadings in civil lawsuits in Minnesota and Virginia alleging that En Pointe Technologies, Inc. has engaged in illegal and unethical business practices designed to enable En Pointe to compete unfairly in the marketplace.
In the court filings Softchoice alleged that En Pointe engaged in a scheme to "misappropriate Softchoice's confidential information, trade secrets, and customer relationships and use them to injure Softchoice." As part of a campaign to injure Softchoice's business, En Pointe recruited and hired Softchoice sales personnel with the expectation of using confidential Softchoice data, the suits state.
"...[O]ver the past several years En Pointe has relied on a 'business model' of raiding competitors in general, and plaintiff Softchoice in particular, of experienced sales representatives," the suits state. "That model has permitted En Pointe to reap the benefits of an experienced, knowledgeable sales force without making the investment in time and resources required to develop such a sales force."
Individual lawsuits are pending against former employees for breach of contract agreements in Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Carolina and Virginia. En Pointe has raided Softchoice personnel a total of 22 times over the last two years.
The motions filed, which seek to add En Pointe as a defendant to cases that currently name several former Softchoice employees as defendants, were filed in Hennepin County District Court (Minneapolis) and in the Circuit Court for the City of Norfolk, Va.
"Softchoice believes that competition in the information technology industry benefits customers, but that competition must be fair and legal," said Kirsten Thompson, General Counsel of Softchoice Corporation. "Our goal is to put a stop to this illegal behavior and force En Pointe to obey federal and state laws."
"Softchoice prides itself on its hard-earned reputation for ethical behavior and corporate responsibility," Thompson added. "We take seriously the confidential information shared with us by our customers and vendors, and will take every legal action available to us to protect the confidential information entrusted to us and the high-level of confidence we have earned in the marketplace."
In addition to seeking monetary damages from En Pointe, the actions seek a permanent injunction against former Softchoice employees who violated the terms and conditions of their contracts and confidentiality agreements with Softchoice when they solicited Softchoice customers to do business with En Pointe. Softchoice has won injunctions and temporary restraining orders against a number of former employees now working for En Pointe in Minnesota, Virginia and Missouri and also has actions pending in North Carolina and Nebraska.
The suits note that En Pointe, while encouraging Softchoice employees to ignore their non-solicitation agreements, has agreements in place with it own employees that ban such activity: "Unable to create sufficient revenue through organic growth of its business, En Pointe has chosen to increase its revenue by stealing the very kind of confidential business relationships it forbids its own employees even to discuss with others."

UFC 152: MMA headliners weigh in for Toronto card
Light-heavyweight champion Jon (Bones) Jones discusses controversial no-show for last UFC event.
Comments | ? |
Report an Error |
Share via Email
English middleweight Michael (The Count) Bisping stole the show at the UFC 152 news conference Thursday, jamming his face into opponent Brian (All American) Stann as the two posed for photos.
There were no such fireworks when light-heavyweight champion Jon (Bones) Jones and challenger Vitor (The Phenom) Belfort or flyweight title contenders Joseph Benavidez and Demetrious (Mighty Mouse) Johnson faced off.
The fight card goes Saturday night (TV: pay-per-view) at the Air Canada Centre.
Bad blood at the photo op aside, it was a pretty routine pre-fight gathering before fans and media at the Real Sports Bar and Grill, other than the revelation from Belfort that Jones is his seven-year-old son Davi's favourite fighter.
All six fighters on hand were quick to talk up Canada's passion for MMA. Still, tickets remain available for the show, the UFC's 10th in Canada and third in Toronto.
"Even if I get booed, I'm still happy to be here," Jones said with a smile.
Jones' popularity took a blow when he decided not to fight Chael Sonnen on short notice at UFC 151, a move that led to the cancellation of the Sept. 1 Las Vegas card.
"I definitely really feel horrible about the way it all played out," said Jones, while adding he was not the one that cancelled the show.
"Life is about moving forward . . . I believe a good performance (Saturday) will definitely help people forget," he added. "For the people who refuse to forget, I don't know what to say to you about that."
He added he didn't understan why the card wasn't allowed to go ahead without him, saying it showed disrespect to the other fighters on the billing.
"Some real questions have to be asked to Dana (White) why the fight got cancelled."
UFC president White was not at the news conference — travel problems were cited — but he is slated to meet Jones before the weigh-in Friday to hash out any differences.
The UFC needed a new opponent for Jones when Dan Henderson withdrew because of injury. Belfort subsequently volunteered and Jones agreed to meet the 35-year-old former champion on four weeks' notice.
Jones' image had already taken a dent with a drunk driving charge.
On Thursday, he talked of the difficulties of going from an ordinary person "being able to just be the person you want to be at all times" to having "a lot of people believe that they know you already, when there's just so many sides of me that aren't demonstrated every day."
"What it's forced me to do is just be more secure in the person that I am and trust in my personality," he said.
Bookmakers have made Jones a heavy favourite at roughly 8-1.

We stayed here for just one night as part of a cycling holiday. The first impression of the hotel is that is is like an old people's home and needs some updating. The rooms are fairly large but very dated. Our room was dark and dingy with a cracked window. The headboard, which was screwed to the wall, fell off during the night. The downsatirs rooms are much more presentable and have large leather sofas and a flat screen TV.
Breakfast was okay and served by a very pleasant and friendly young chap.
The location is very good and it is an easy walk to the town's attractions and restaurants.
I probably wouldn't recommend this hotel to anyone and would not stay here again.

While we're super sad that Kenton Duty's character Gunther Hessenheffer will no longer be in every episode, there are plenty of other things that we're super psyched to see this season. Read on for a peek at what's to come…and get ready for things to be shaken up!
Stop, Drop, and Roll! In the first episode, there's a fire that destroys the Shake It Up set. CeCe may have even been the cause of the flames! Will she confess to leaving her curling iron on, or keep the secret from her mother's boyfriend, the police detective?
Rah rah, fight fight! After CeCe and Rocky see the not-so-perfect Spirit Squad perform, they decide to go out for the team. Will they make the cut? And even if they do, will they be able to transform the squad into something much stronger?
Double "Brother" Trouble! Yay, cute boys! And even more yay, they ask out CeCe and Rocky! These two sweeties tell the girls they are brothers, and it all seems perfect at first. But then, CeCe and Rocky realize they may have been tricked, and these two boys just might be lying to them.
Try Again! Everything is going great on the Shake It Up, Chicago! set—that is, until the show gets a new executive producer. Now, all the kids must re-audition for their spot on the show. Will they make it, or be beat out by some new competition?
Oooh, we just can't wait for the premier of season three! We've even got an exclusive preview of this weekend's "Fire It Up," just for our fave #GLgirls. Check it out below…
Do you think CeCe caused the fire? How do ya feel about the cool dance number from the clip? Blog about it, babes.

Paroles de Tim RICE - Musique de Michel BERGER
I've been on course since seventeen
It's who you know and where you've been
Until it's you they want to know
I learned the rule ther are no rules
Exept that gentlemen are fools
I order principles to go
There is no secret to success
As long as others want it less
It is no substance it is style
Ther is no deal that can't be done
Retaliation can be fun
I never walk that extra mile
I have acquired the winner's touch
Of seeming happy with so much
I can be honest if required
I have succeeded and that's all
But then as far as I recall
That's really all that I desired
Oh I would love to change the world
Its many failings one by one
To be the artist, poet, priest
Who feels the battle can be won
And I would love to fall in love
To lose my heart, to lose control
To break away, set rolling free
The darkest secrets of my soul
The darkest secrets of my soul
Oh I would love to change the world
To feel my momen's just begun
To steal a march, to play for keeps
To break the mould, to jump the gun
As no-one else has ever done
And I would love to fall in love
And I give you all of me and more
I long to say that I believe
in words I've never used before
In words no lover used before
Oh i would love to change the world
To break away set rolling free
The darkest secrets of my soul
At least the world's not changing me...
