Intel Corp.
Brian Krzanich is shaking things up at Intel. Now comes the wait for measurable results, which may be scarce as investors wait for fourth-quarter results Thursday.
The chip maker's new CEO, who hosted his first Consumer Electronics Show keynote last week, inherited a company with a sick cash cow–chips for personal computers, a business that has shrunk while sales of tablets have soared.
Intel's shares have benefited lately from signs that the PC market is bottoming out. But being a long-term bull on the company requires faith that the company can find ways to grow in new markets, as Krzanich has vowed to do.
And not much growth is expected in the period ended in September. While analysts' average estimates point to about 8% greater earnings per share than the year-earlier period, their $13.7 billion target for revenue is up only 1.5%.
Intel plans to report its earnings after market close and hold a conference call at 5 p.m. Here are some key things to watch:
Tablet traction: Krzanich in November set an unusually bold goal for Intel to boost its position in chips for tablets, a market now dominated by companies that license technology from ARM Holdings. He vowed to place Intel processors in more than 40 million tablets this year, quadrupling its current shipments to makers of those products.
No one is expecting dramatic signs of progress toward that goal on Thursday. But there could be some, an outgrowth of Krzanich's vow to dive further into low-priced gadgets than predecessor Paul Otellini targeted. Companies such as Hewlett-Packard introduced seven-inch Intel-powered tablets for less than $100 in the holiday shopping period, for example, a low level for a company long used to selling chips alone for hundreds of dollars.
Android action: Intel has long leaned heavily on its relationship with Microsoft, whose Windows operating system is used in most PCs. But that alliance doesn't help in tablets and smartphones, the source of most growth in the industry.
So Intel has invested heavily to make sure that Google's Android works just as well on its chips as rival ARM-based processors, an effort that could soon start having a slight impact on the chip maker's numbers soon.
At the CES show, Krzanich said Intel will help boost security features on Android to make it more palatable to corporate customers, a dig at one of Microsoft's real strongholds.
(Intel has also tightly embraced Chromebooks, the other Google-powered offering for clamshell-style portable computers that also come in ARM-powered versions).
The "other" category: Intel lumps emerging businesses like chips for tablets and smartphones into a reporting segment called "other Intel architecture operating segments."
It hasn't produced a pretty picture lately. In the quarter ended Sept. 30, revenue in that segment declined 9.3% to $1.1 billion from the year-earlier period, while its operating loss swelled to $606 million from $235 million.
Don't look for a profit this time out. But the revenue line could be interesting.
Bigger iron: Intel's best numbers come from its data center group, which includes sales of chips used in server systems. The company has little serious competition in the market at the moment, so there's little pressure on pricing or profit margins.
But the business is turbulent. Internet services like Google and Amazon.com are still buying more servers, but conventional companies like banks and retailers are slowing purchases. The countervailing trends could produce surprises Thursday.
Filling the factory: With PC sales still soft, Intel at least temporarily faces excess manufacturing capacity–a potentially costly problem. One symbol is a decision to keep a new factory building in Chandler, Ariz., closed for the moment rather than outfitting it with costly manufacturing tools.
Intel trimmed capital spending plans twice in 2013, though in November it projected that spending in 2014 would be nearly $11 billion–roughly flat with last year. Investors will be watching for any reduction in that forecast, which could tend to boost Intel's closely watched profit margins.

And now, without further ado, here are this year's six weirdest gadgets of CES 2014 (with a special bonus nod to a seventh):
1. The OpticWash
OpticWash calls its vending machine system a "car wash for eyeglasses" — and that's exactly what it is: You place your specs into a holder at the center of a thick plastic cylinder, where in a matter of minutes, it undergoes a spinning, high-pressure spray-wash, a sanitizing blast of antimicrobial UV rays and a wind-tunnel air-dry. The cost? $1. And if you download the companion iPhone app, you can pay for your lens-laundering with the touch of a finger. What makes it questionable: How often do people really need to wash their glasses — and what makes the OpticWash more effective than a Wet-Nap? An OpticWash salesperson pointed out the machine's unique antibacterial capabilities; when I noted that the glasses are longer sanitary as soon as they're put back on your face, the salesperson jokingly demonstrated how his entire head could fit into the OpticWash cylinder.
2. Elektra Press-On Stylus Nails
Are you a lady (or lad) with dragon-length claws? Then you've probably encountered firsthand the problem that Elektra's new press-on nails are designed to solve: Your talons make it almost impossible for you to use a multitouch tablet or smartphone device. Elektra Nails are made of an electrostatic-screen compatible plastic, allowing you to poke, sketch and type with your hot-pink French tips. What makes it questionable: Fingernail typing is even more awkward and provides even less feedback to users than a handheld tool — but Elektra has to be commended for putting the "style" back into "stylus."
3. Petzila Pet Remote Interaction Device
Petzila is an Internet connected device that lets you soothe, encourage and give tasty treats to your dog or cat while you're on the road — allowing you to watch and hear your pet via an integrated camera, and remotely release a treat from its refillable snack bucket when the pet responds. What makes it questionable: Your pet either doesn't know you're gone (cat) or is dying inside from your absence (dog), so installing a plastic widget to provide it with pseudo-presence is only likely to confuse and dismay it. On your head be it if your furry buddy ends up bonding with Petzila instead of you. Rumors that the company is planning to introduce a follow-on product called "Kidzila" have not been confirmed.
4. Panono Panoramic Ball Camera
Do you need to take an immersive picture of your environment that can be scrolled spherically in every direction? Then you probably need one of these. The Panono's 36 cameras simultaneously and automatically fire in midair to create a stitched-together 360-degree by 360-degree image that can be viewed in any web browser. What makes it questionable: To deploy the Panono, simply throw it directly the air; the cameras will auto-fire at the apex of the ball's upward travel. Yes. You read that correctly: Haul back and whip it upwards as hard as you can. With any luck, you'll catch it or it'll land on something soft. Because even though it's made of "impact resistant" tough plastic, it also costs $499. Warning: Do not use Panono near cliffs, volcanoes, busy traffic or large bodies of water.
5. Kolibree Smart Toothbrush
Kolibree uses Bluetooth to connect with your smartphone in order to track how well you and your family brush your teeth. In addition to giving you a handy visualization of your hygiene history, it also has a feature that lets you to compete with your family (and others!) in dental care awesomeness. What makes it questionable: The name conjures up a creature from "The Hobbit" — why didn't the inventor just call it the Bluetoothbrush? But seriously, the only thing I'm less interested in connecting with my smartphone than a toothbrush is a fork. Oh wait, that was last year's biggest techfail.
6. AcceleDent
While we're on the subject of teeth, no list of bizarre gadgets would be complete without a mention of the AcceleDent, an oral device that emits a vibration intense enough to loosen your teeth — thereby shortening the time you need to wear orthodontic devices. What makes it questionable: Although the manufacturer says that it has been found "safe and reliable" in U.S. clinical trials, is it really a good idea to bite down on something like this?
Special bonus mention:
7. Curved TVs
In lemminglike lockstep, every major set manufacturer released curved-screen televisions this year, possibly the stupidest act of overt desperation the CE world has seen since, oh, let's just say "3D TV." Though they asserted in chorus that the curved screens offered greater "immersiveness" for viewers, that's debatable — and only effective in any case for those seated at the focal point of the curvature. What makes it questionable: Television manufacturers continue to bring features to market that consumers have never asked for and generally do not want. CES 2015 will probably bring cylindrical TVs that viewers need to be lowered into (for full 360-degree immersion, perhaps to watch images shot by Panono Ball Cameras). Also, did any give a thought to how people are supposed to wall-mount these things?
Update: An earlier edition of this post included a line that joked about AcceleDent, an oral device that emits a vibration intense enough to loosen your teeth, "is it really a good idea to bite down on something that makes your teeth rattle in their sockets?" That reference to rattling has been removed. The public relations firm that represents AcceleDent responded to this article with an email that said, in part, "you characterized the product as one that causes users 'teeth to rattle in their sockets.' That is simply untrue. 'Rattle' implies a dramatic movement, one that could potentially make a sound. On the contrary, AcceleDent accelerates teeth movement using the gentlest of pulses…" The firm added that "there have been zero patient complaints about AcceleDent."

Naughty America, a maker of pornographic films, is spending hundreds of thousands of dollars to shoot all of its adult entertainment material in ultra-high-definition.
Don't blush. The company's decision is an example of a larger trend that backers of UHD, including television makers like Samsung Electronics Co. and LG Electronics Co., say will help the technology avoid the same fate that met 3D TV: namely, that there will plenty of content for the fancy new devices, and soon.
As the two Korean television makers, and a bevy of Chinese and Japanese competitors, geared up to unveil new UHD TVs here at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, the question was whether there would be enough stuff to watch in the high-resolution format to entice consumers to pony up for an upgraded TV.
This week's conference has mostly assuaged those fears. Over the past few days, there's been a parade of announcements as content providers large and small, in conjunction with set makers and distribution services, pledge their commitment to creating content for UHD.
UHD is also known as 4K because of the 4,000-pixel horizontal resolution it offers. The technology offers resolution with four times the number of pixels as standard high definition picture quality. At the bigger end of the spectrum, household names like Amazon.com, which has said it will shoot all of its full original series this year in 4K, added details of a partnership with Warner Bros., Lionsgate, 20th Century Fox and Discovery to provide 4K content through its Instant Video service.
Similarly, Netflix said it would make the second season of its original hit drama, "House of Cards," available in the new format this year on 4K TV's manufactured by Sony, LG and others. Samsung said that it would release a "video pack" featuring popular Hollywood movies and documentaries from 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment and Paramount Pictures, with more for download as they become available.
Sony, which has its own giant content arm in the form of its Sony Pictures Entertainment unit, launched a 4K video download service last year with more than 140 films and TV shows.
The promise to consumers: buy a brand new spanking UHD TV, and there will be plenty of things to watch in the eye-popping new format.
For littler guys like Naughty America, a privately-held company based in San Diego, the intent is there too. But jumping into 4K is no minor undertaking.
In an interview on the sidelines of CES, Andreas Hronopoulos, the company's 31-year-old chief executive, said Naughty America's investment in creating 4K content was its biggest ever in technology — and definitely big enough to sink the company, should the format fail to take off.
Unlike with previous technologies, Mr. Hronopoulos says the barriers to entry with 4K are high for his company and many of its competitors.
Shooting and storing new content in UHD is a daunting task for a smaller outfit; a 30-minute video can take up one terabyte of memory, which needs to be backed up and accessible on servers, he said. That doesn't come cheap.
Nor do new, fancy editing machines tailored for 4K content, like Apple Inc.'s new Mac Pro, which is necessary to ensure the color correction necessary to make the footage "pop," as Mr. Hronopoulos puts it.
In spite of the costs, Mr. Hronopoulos is convinced that the investment will be worth it, because 4K hits at one of the most important selling points for his clientele: giving viewers the ability to feel like they're really there.
"Yes, you need a lot of computing power," he says. But given the demands of his customers, he added, "the closer we can come to making it feel like you're there, the more successful we are."
For access to the 4K content, Mr. Hronopoulos plans to charge $10 a month on top of the regular $24.95 monthly subscription for regular high definition. (Those who don't want to upgrade can continue to access new content in regular high-def.)
Comparing his customers to sports fans and video gamers who seek out the ultra-realistic fantasy worlds created by video game companies, he added: "Our customers want to get as close to reality as they can get, without reality getting in the way."

LAS VEGAS—Technology that monitors a new car's engine performance and sends detailed trouble alerts to an owner's cellphone is now becoming available to owners of older model vehicles using inexpensive add-ons.
The idea is to give all car owners access to data generated by the diagnostic port that connects to various sensors built into most vehicles. Mechanics at garages have long used that information to help diagnose a car's problems.
A handful of companies including Automatic Labs Inc. and VOXX International Corp. are offering devices with wireless capability for $100 and up that consumers can plug into that port and route the car's data to the Internet. The gadgets allow car owners to track metrics over time such as the car's speed, fuel economy and to decode the check-engine light.
"The consumer has stepped in front of the car manufacturer's decision process," said Sterling Pratz, head of Autonet Mobile Inc., one of the companies making these connectors. "It is changing the automotive industry and giving people access to information that they didn't have before."
The new technology is a sidelight to an array of new car-technology offerings at this year's Consumer Electronics Show, many of which include ways to connect cars wirelessly to the Web. Most fully electric cars already maintain a constant wireless connection, sending information such as their current electrical charge to customers through a website or app on their smartphone. A few car makers have also offered services to send automated car diagnostic reports to customers through the Web.
At CES, most car companies this week have stressed wireless connections for applications such as enterprise and navigation. Ford Motor Co. showed off a new version of its Sync software, originally developed with Microsoft Corp., allowing apps to access real-time vehicle data such as acceleration, speed and location.
General Motors Co. also announced new software that will include a vehicle health app with diagnostic information and appointment scheduling with a dealer sent to the car's dash.
But drivers of most older cars can't benefit from the new technological advances. That is where the gadget makers come in.
Much of the information they generate can be viewed in a companion mobile app, which typically offers a score based on how often drivers drove over a specified speed limit or stopped their cars suddenly.
Nate Klaiber, 32, said the information has given him peace of mind he can more easily diagnose a problem with his car. It has also eliminated his need to keep paper journals of his trips and fuel fill-ups.
"It sits there, out of the way, and every now and then I open the app and look at it," he said.
What remains unclear is whether the devices will attract more than aspiring gear-heads. The latest gadgets have only recently become available at retail, so there is little sales data so far. But Thilo Koslowski, an analyst at market research firm Gartner, is skeptical that customers will flock to buy them.
"I don't see enough value to excite customers," he said. After initial insights gained from the devices, such as revealing driving patterns that contribute to low gas mileage, they quickly lose their value, he said.
Car companies are also turning on similar capabilities in new cars at an increasing pace, Mr. Koslowski said. Within the next six years, between 70% and 80% of vehicles being sold will have the option of being connected to the Internet, he said.
But device suppliers believe they can prove their worth. Mojio Inc.'s product will sport an integrated cellular data chip and allows app developers access to the information its collects and sends. That distinction, the company says, allows customers to use the same apps no matter what type of car they use, instead of relying on the individual car maker's app stores.
"The car companies have never had a way to enhance their existing customer's experience," said Jay Giraud, Mojio's chief executive, whose product is expected to be available in the spring.
Some of the devices upload information to the Internet directly using built-in cellular data chips, while others rely on the wireless connection of a nearby smartphone.
For those that do, AT&T Inc. is opening a center in Atlanta, Ga., with fleets of cars designed to help app developers and other companies test their products. Glenn Lurie, head of AT&T's partnership and new devices group, said these new technologies could encourage customers to connect their devices to their cars in larger numbers. Today, he said, only 20% of customers that can connect a mobile device to their car do.
"Full-time connectivity will bring those next-generation applications in the vehicle," he said.
Dash Labs Inc. is developing an app it plans to offer to customers using nearly any connector, driving costs down below $10 in some cases. It is also planning to work with car companies to be offered as a downloadable app directly connected to the car's systems if the vehicle is already connected to the Internet.
"We can answer the question of who is driving, what are you driving, where are you driving, how are you getting there," said Jamyn Edis, Dash's chief executive. Dash is also planning to offer information such as recommendations for trusted mechanics if the car breaks down.
Autonet has long offered products that can be installed inside a car to offer a variety of features. Now it too is developing a gadget for release this spring, offering wireless connectivity and features such as vehicle health reports of a college student's car.
But others in the car accessories business still aren't convinced. One is John Govgas, head of Carshield Services Inc., which has offered similar products for years at many times the price of these new gadgets. He said less-expensive products often don't include an always-on cellular connection, which makes them unreliable for features like crash detection and theft prevention.
"It is a matter of time before people are demanding more," he said.

One of the stranger events at this year's Consumer Electronics Show was an attempt to set a new world record for continuous TV watching, sponsored by TiVo. And they did it.
Three men — Chris Laughlin, Dan Jordan and Spencer Larson — watched 87 straight hours of TV at the DVR maker's CES booth in Las Vegas, where their watching through TiVo's new Roamio device was monitored by a group of volunteers and emergency medical technicians. (They got five-minute rest and bathroom breaks every hour).
After they broke the existing record, as previously recorded by the Guinness World Records people, the EMTs took the watchers away since they didn't want them driving, a TiVo spokesman said.
The contest began Monday night and ended Friday morning. TiVo said the previous world record for the longest marathon watching television was held by two Californians who watched consecutive episodes of FOX's "The Simpsons" for more than 86 hours in 2012.
Why was TiVo backing binging? The company thinks that a key use model for DVR owners is holing up and watching many shows in a row, sometimes large portions of entire broadcast seasons.
"A large percentage of TiVo users engage in some form of binging," said Tom Rogers, President and CEO of TiVo.

For people who love to cook, the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas this week had appliances to drool over. But for every kitchen innovation there is a half-baked scheme that doesn't add to performance or convenience. The trick is telling the difference.
Take Whirlpool's CoolVox fridge that is headed to Lowe's stores this summer. It has an embedded Bluetooth speaker system from Harman Kardon. While it's nice to have easy access to music in the kitchen, refrigerators can last a decade, and there's no telling how we'll listen to music in 2024. Besides, a musical fridge is a fairly arbitrary combination; there are already so many other ways to access music around the house.
"Smart" displays were everywhere at CES. When LG set off a wave of gadgety kitchen appliances at the show two years ago, its Smart ThinQ lineup included a refrigerator with an LCD screen that told you what's in the fridge, and an oven that took direction from your smartphone. These seemed like solutions looking for problems.
This year, however, LG's Korean rival Samsung seems to have focused on solving real problems. Its new Chef Collection refrigerator has a small "pantry" with its own temperature control for specialty foods, can easily turn a portion of the freezer into a regular fridge, and includes a sparkling-water lever powered by cartridges from the popular SodaStream system.
The fridge also displays vital stats on the door, though not on an LCD screen. Instead, light shines through tiny pinholes in the stainless-steel front. But what matters is that information appears only when you need it, like when closing the door, and then the entire display vanishes as you walk away.
On the cleanup end, Samsung has a new dishwasher that takes aim at what it says is the most disappointing piece: the water-spraying spinner. Instead, Samsung's new dishwasher has what it calls a water wall that blasts the lower rack with hot water coursing back and forth. In a Samsung test to remove baked-on brownie scum, the new dishwasher beat the company's previous flagship. Also, frankly, the water wall looked cool in the transparent demo unit.
A lot of appliance makers this year went out of their way to work smartphone apps into cooking. Dacor introduced a cooktop with an interface using Google's Android operating system. The main selling point is that the interface is more intuitive and easier to use than most digital readouts. Like LG's stove, this one also pairs with a smartphone for remote control. But it's hard to say how useful that would be. When cooking, you're (hopefully) close enough to the kitchen that remote controls aren't really necessary. And if you do step away, you can use the timer that's already in your smartphone.
There was one smartphone interface that actually made sense. Wireless accessory maker Belkin paired with Jarden Consumer Solutions to create the Crock-Pot WeMo smart slow cooker. You can turn it off or change time and temperature settings from anywhere, Belkin says. Considering the slow cooker is one appliance people often use when they're not at home, remote operation through a smartphone is a reasonable pairing — for peace of mind if nothing else.
High-end grill maker Lynx showed off its SmartGrill — a voice-controlled gas grill that is expected to go on sale in early 2015. If you say "Preheat" or "Cook scallops," for example, the grill uses a temperature probe and pre-set cook times to achieve consistent cooking results. The SmartGrill is aimed at well-heeled novices. Seasoned grillers, on the other hand, might appreciate the precision temperature and an accompanying app's multiple cooking timers but grow impatient with the voice interface. Cooks tend to be hands-on.
A lot of the appliances on display will be going on sale in the coming months. Whirlpool, meanwhile, gave CES attendees a glimpse further into the kitchen's future.
The company's exhibit invited people to imagine a magnetic induction cooktop embedded right into a countertop. (Induction cooking involves heating iron and steel cookware directly, instead of heating the general area around pots and pans.) At first blush, the countertop just looks like any usable space. A graphical display to access the stove's "burners" and controls only appear when you need it. So you could prep, cook and clean all in the same spot – a big gain for people living in smaller spaces.
Unfortunately, the multipurpose space also displays updates from Facebook, Evite and other social channels right there on the cooktop. Whirlpool's designers marred a smart forward-looking idea, at least a little bit, by injecting an overplayed gimmick of the present.
In the smart home, wearable technology will provide contextually – knowing who is home and where – according to Alex Hawkinson, CEO of SmartThings. He spoke with WSJ's Joanna Stern at CES 2014.
Greg Duffy, Dropcam CEO, sees fragmentation in connected home producers as good thing where makers focus on quality over feature quantity. He spoke with WSJ's Geoffrey Fowler at CES 2014 in Las Vegas.
One of the biggest hits at the 2014 Consumer Electronics Show is printing.
At the 3D Systems Corp. booth, staff members were "printing" chocolate candies and a group dubbed a "3D band" played music using instruments made with 3D printers.
At a nearby booth, DWS, an Italy-based 3D printer manufacturer, showed how its XFab printer assembled a component of a snowboarding mask. The new devices offer a glimpse of a Star Trek future. In fact, it has been compared to the "replicator" of the popular sci-fi TV series, although we're not exactly talking about a zap-then-flash process of creation. That's because printing an object can take hours, even days.
"It's not like the Star Trek replicator, but it's very exciting technology," Discern analyst Cindy Shaw told MarketWatch. But the technology is not yet widely recognized outside of tech circles, she added.
3D printing is the process of creating a physical object based on a three-dimensional model generated by a computer that is then sliced into tiny sections and put it together layer by layer. It is also referred to as additive manufacturing.
The technology has actually been around for decades, but has been used mainly for heavy-duty industrial operations.
But there's been an explosion of interest in broadening its reach, including for consumer use. One factor is the recent expiration of key 3D technology patents, Shaw said.
"The most basic patents for one 3D printing process expired a few years ago, allowing new entrants to introduce very simple printers at much lower price points, which is critical in the consumer market."
It has become a crowded, increasingly competitive space.
Among the leading players in the space is Stratasys Ltd., which owned some of the expired patents.
Jonathan Cobb, Stratasys executive vice president for corporate marketing, quips that "fundamental patents" expired and allowed smaller companies "to make mediocre products."
At CES, companies with such names as Sculpteo and Solidoodle competed for attention.
They showed off a range of items created with a 3D printing device, from figurines to toys to industrial parts to women's shoes.
Shaw of Discern says the 3D printing market has been estimated to total roughly $3 billion in 2013.
Two of the leading 3D printing companies, Stratasys and 3D Systems, have seen big jumps in their stock prices.
IDC analyst Crawford Del Prete said 3D printing "has the power to disrupt industries, in the same way that newspapers and publishing was disrupted by the internet."
"Items that have their inherent value in engineering, design and material can now be produced in the after market via a 3D printer. Think about the number of 'low tech' but hard to find item that need to be inventoried and ordered today in the construction, manufacturing, and service/repair business that could be transformed by 3D printing. Items such as rare parts for out of production items can now be printed right away with a 3D printer that otherwise would take a long time and lots of expense to source."
The technology also offers benefits to small businesses, said Roger Kay of Endpoint Technologies Associates.
"It could speed up some aspects of R&D, and it could enable smaller companies that can't afford factories with expensive processes to enter into some types of manufacturing," Kay told MarketWatch.
In fact, Cobb of Stratasys calls it owning "a factory in the box."
"You look at it and it's amazing," he told MarketWatch.
He did took note of the explosion of companies offering 3D printing systems, and the media attention the technology has received.
"Right now, there's euphoria," Cobb said. "It's an easy industry to get into. Everybody is doing the same thing."
In fact, Shaw, the Discern analyst, also has warned 3D printing technology investors. In a June note, she said "we continue to believe that it is too soon to call the long-term winners in 3D printing."
She said "valuation multiples" for companies including 3D Systems and Stratasys, "could continue to expand, making them dangerous shorts." Shaw also took note of what she called "recent large, out-of-pattern insider sales and a looming tax rate increase at 3D Systems."
"I'm very excited about the sector but I think it is in the early stages of a bubble," she told MarketWatch. "The bubble could persist and grow, but at some point I expect it to blow up and that could get pretty ugly."

Many people's image of the Consumer Electronics Show boils down to booths full of big TVs and other gadgets, with the occasional squad of both babes in small costumes. But it's worth remembering that the really important action happens in private rooms away from the limelight.
CES is a very handy place for customers and suppliers from different cities and countries to do real business, negotiating prices, delivery dates and hand shaking on lucrative deals. One who was talking freely about the back-room action this week is John Kispert, chief executive of chip maker Spansion.
"I made a lot of money today," he said, during an interview in one of the big cluster of grey meeting rooms at the far side of South Hall at the Las Vegas conventions center.
Kispert described a typical meeting with a Japanese auto maker, the kind of people the Silicon Valley executive has a hard time meeting. The visitors included an engineer, a procurement specialist and a senior business executive with authority to approve contracts.
"It's incredibly efficient," Kispert said. "People come here to close."
Auto makers are particularly active buyers this year, Kispert adds. Spansion benefits, in part because it sells a different variety of flash memory chip than those used in smartphones and tablets.
Such NOR chips are preferred in cars for reliability and length of life. While the better-known NAND flash is good for consumer devices with a short life, Spansion guarantees its NOR chips for 20 years. The company also sells another kind of chip called microcontrollers that is also used in cars, a business Spansion acquired from Fujitsu.
Other chip makers with busy meeting rooms in the convention center included Broadcom, SanDisk and Atmel. Companies that do maintain more showy booths usually have private meeting rooms where top execs can meet with customers.
Still other CEOs rent large suites at some of the more fashionable Las Vegas hotels. Dennis Woodside, head of Google's Motorola smartphone unit, was holding forth this week at the Aria. He said he had met with a stream of carriers and suppliers, talking about the company's roadmap of handsets and negotiating prices.
Steve Luczo, CEO of Seagate Technology, was entertaining guests at the nearby Vdara, in a boardroom-style meeting room surrounded by displays of products containing the company's disk drives.
Over at somewhat less-stylish Bally's was Kazuhiro Tsuga, chief executive of Panasonic. He also stressed that the opportunity to meet with customers and suppliers is a primary reason the Japanese company keeps turning up at the trade show.
But there's another reason for such a global company–simply getting far-flung employees to meet each other.
"It's such a big company," he said. At CES, the employees from the U.S., Japan and other regions can have what in some cases is a first-time encounter with colleagues. "It's a good opportunity to meet inside Panasonic."

World Wrestling Entertainment showed up at CES this year and, oddly enough, had something to say.
The company responsible for rewarding pop culture with The Rock and Hulk Hogan introduced WWE Network, a a $9.99-a-month online video channel that will show one special event a month. Traditionally, these Wrestlemania-type events were available only through pay-per-view. Subscribers also can access a backlog of more than 100,000 hours of old and new wrestling shows.
Whether or not you consider WWE's brand of wrestling a sport, the company's approach is novel for athletic entertainment. The MLB, NFL, NBA, NHL and even MLS all offer subscription services that allow fans to watch games live. But each of those sports leagues generally offer little in the way of on-demand video, while watching local teams or playoff games usually are subject to blackout-restrictions because of the deals with broadcast and cable companies.
WWE's model is more akin to Netflix and Hulu. Still, the move is a big risk for WWE, the company need at least a million subscribers to break even.

Atrac-Tain Moisturizing Cream by Coloplast

I have NEVER found a cream that works as well and is not greasy. My husband even started using it on his hands and neck and loves it. This is a real find.

UT Arlington Study Abroad
No announcements? Upgrade Flash or Text-only |
Application Process
Advising Stage
Before you apply for a study abroad program, you must set up an advising appointment with a Study Abroad Advisor. This is to ensure that you have all the information available about the program you intend to apply as well as to be certain you understand the entire application process. After you have been advised and have established that you are eligible to study abroad, you can then begin the Study Abroad Application.- UTA Exchange Program Application Checklist
- UTA Affiliate Program Application Checklist
- UTA Faculty-led Program Application Checklist
Application Stage
The Study Abroad Application materials for Reciprocal Exchange or Affiliated programs are completed online. To begin your UTA Study Abroad Application, go to the brochure for your intended program which can be found through the program search tool. If we are currently accepting applications for your intended program, you will see an "Apply Now" button near the top-left corner of the program brochure. Once you click the "Apply Now" button, you will be prompted to login into our website. This will create your personal applicant homepage for your specific program. Complete the application and submit the required materials, either electronically or in person, as instructed.As part of the Study Abroad Application, Study Abroad Staff will review your UTA transcript to ensure you meet the academic standards for your intended program. We will also complete a judicial check with the Office of Student Conduct. Any judicial concerns will be dealt with individually.
Students who are applying for an Affiliated Program must complete the UTA Study Abroad Application prior to completing the affilliated provider's application materials.
Students who are applying for a Reciprocal Exchange Program are also required to schedule an informal interview with the Study Abroad Staff to discuss their application and study abroad goals.
After these steps have been completed and the Study Abroad Staff has determined you are eligible to study abroad on your intended program, you will receive a formal clearance letter via the online application system with information on the next application stage.
Post-Decision Stage
Congratulations! You have been cleared to study abroad. Now you can begin your application to the host university abroad (exchange programs) or to the program provider (affiliated programs). The application materials and steps will be provided to you through the online application system during this stage.Please note that even though you have been cleared to study abroad through UTA, you still must be accepted by the university abroad and/or the affiliated program provider. Some programs may have rolling admissions, so it is strongly recommended to apply as early as possible to ensure space on the program.
Once you have been accepted by the university abroad and/or the affiliated program provider, you must then fill out all post-acceptance forms through the online application system. These forms include emergency contact data, insurance coverage certification, proof of SOS registration, health & safety questionnaire, and other pertinent forms necessary to study abroad with UTA.
Pre-Departure Stage
The final stage before departing for your study abroad program is the Pre-Departure Stage. Every student accepted to study abroad must attend the mandatory Pre-Departure Orientation held each November and April. During the orientation, we will discuss health & safety issues abroad, insurance requirements, the study abroad course enrollment process, cultural adjustment, and other important information. The orientation will also give you the opportunity to meet other UTA students who will be studying abroad the same semester as you.The Pre-Departure Stage is also the time for you to acquire all of your travel documents, immunizations and health insurance. For students studying abroad for a semester or longer, you should also prepare for your return to UTA following your program by speaking to your academic advisor, financial aid counselor and housing office if necessary. Visit the Before You Go section of our website for more in-depth tips and suggestions.
While Abroad Stage
You've made it through the application process and are now having the time of your life abroad - Congratulations! While you are abroad, however, there are still a few necessary steps you need to take to make your study abroad experience a smooth and enjoyable one. The first step is to communicate with the UTA Study Abroad Office concerning the courses you have officially enrolled in at your university abroad. You can do this through the online application system. After we have received your official course schedule, we can make any changes necessary with your course enrollment here at UTA. If you decide to take a course abroad that you did not receive formal approval before departing UTA, you must work with your academic advisor(s) to get approval and determine the UTA course equivalency.Returning Stage
As you prepare for your return to U.S. and to UTA, don't forget to make any necessary arrangements for your next semester at UTA well in advance of your departure. This may include registering for your courses through MyMav, contacting your academic advisor for advising and enrollment clearance, applying for on-campus housing, and making sure your transcript will be sent back to the UTA Study Abroad Office for processing upon completion of your semester abroad.
Once you return to UTA, share your amazing experience abroad by becoming a Study Abroad Ambassador, volunteering at the Study Abroad Fair and other events and by participating in the annual Study Abroad Photo Contest. Visit the Returnee section of the website for more details.

When to Seek Medical CareCall your doctor when the prescribed medications are not controlling the pain, or if you develop new symptoms. Because tic douloureux is a pain-only syndrome, the development of new symptoms may warrant additional evaluation. Go to a hospital's emergency department if you experience symptoms such as fever, redness of your face, or dizziness. These symptoms may not be related to your condition and may signify another illness. If your prescribed medication is not relieving the pain and your doctor is not available for advice, go to the hospital. Must Read Articles Related to Tic Douloureux

Cellar/Tasting Notes Ruby red with purply hues; intense, delicate, vinous nose; soft, smooth, dry taste with a nice almondy streak. Pairings: Pasta, dishes with tasty sauces, fresh cheeses.
Cellar/Tasting Notes Colored an intense, ruby red with garnet reflections, the Rosso di Montalcino has a finely intense nose with fragrant aromas of small, fresh fruits. On the palate it is delicately dry with aromatic, long-lasting flavors. Alcoholic fermentation takes place in stainless steel; malolactic fermentation..
Cellar/Tasting Notes Quintessential Dolcetto - just released, and fresh, round and fruity, the way a Dolcetto should be. Red berry fruits jump from the glass?on the palate the wine is velvety, soft and round. Very pleasant drinking from a great Barolo estate.
Cellar/Tasting Notes Dark and intense red-purple color. Warm, full, and soft with balanced acidity and a long finish of red fruits. Elegant aromas of blackberries and sweet spices. Pairings: Antipasti, first courses, cheese, and salami.
Cellar/Tasting Notes "The estate's 2011 Dogliani Vigna dei Prey takes things up a notch from the San Martino. Here the fruit is darker and more explosive. Menthol, violets, licorice and tar all flesh out in a large-scaled, voluptuous wine endowed with stunning depth and purity. All I can say is wow!"
Cellar/Tasting Notes "A fresh, juicy cherry note is enlivened by spice and savory mineral elements in this lean yet firm red. Remains harmonious and persistent, featuring a long, spice-tinged aftertaste. Shows excellent potential."
Cellar/Tasting Notes "The 2011 Chianti Classico is absolutely impressive and is one of the best base Chianti Classicos I have tasted from 2011. You feel the ripeness and heat of the vintage, but this wine also delivers surprising finesse and complexity. Black cherry and baking spice mingle on the bouquet. Soft tannins..
Cellar/Tasting Notes Plums, violets and a whiff of sea breeze on the nose with hints of clove, nutmeg and licorice. An elegant yet complex Primitivo with lots of red fruits and silky tannins on the palate as well as some Asian spices. Harmonious and delicious. Primitivo is a dark-skinned grape variety used..
Cellar/Tasting Notes Agricola Punica Montessu is made by the legendary winemaker of Sassicaia, Tignanello, and Solaia. An intoxicating blend of Carignano, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Syrah produce a wine with power and grace. Lush and thoroughly delicious.

Army officials modified the Army's contract with Northrop Grumman Information Systems for the department's Global Combat Support System (GCSS-Army), the Defense Department announced Aug. 14.
The company received a $299 million contract modification for the logistics management project, which is to be completed in 2017.
Army officials and Northrop Grumman are developing a single, web-based system to manage the tactical supply and maintenance throughout the Army. GCSS-Army will give military officials near-real-time information on their supplies. They will be able to get details on their total assets and will be able to better account for their property. Overall, the system will automatically perform and streamline tasks that currently consume hours of soldiers' time, freeing them to perform other important duties, the company said. GCSS-Army will replace some stovepiped systems that date back to the early 1980s. It will retire approximately 65,000 stand-alone data repositories, essentially desktop systems.
The new system will replace the Army's 12 current Standard Army Management Information Systems. More specifically, the new system will replace the Standard Army Retail Supply System, Standard Army Maintenance System Enhanced, Property Book Unit Supply Enhanced, Unit Level Logistics System Aviations Enhanced, along with many other unique applications, and the materiel management structure associated with these systems.
In December 2007, Northrop Grumman Information Systems received a multi-year, full-system lifecycle contract to develop and sustain the Army's future tactical logistics system. In August 2011, the program received its Milestone C approval, which officially moved the effort into a formal program of record. Milestone C status allows the program to shift from the engineering, manufacturing and deployment phase into the production and deployment phase, according to a report by Defense Systems.
The Army laid out the central benefit of the new system in a FAQ on its website.
"What makes GCSS-Army better than what I have now? One word Integration," it states.

the phrase "stove piped system" will be used in the 2040s!
Wasn't Defense Supply System supposed to replace all these service-specific systems? Supply is Supply. DoD (or entire fed) needs an enterprise approach for an AIS everyone can use. It ain't rocket surgery.

Discjazz, After the fact is a hard act to follow up on! At the SNPC in Huntsville a few years ago an unqualified player cashed and took the money, the SN reversed it and asked for the money back, didn't happen unless it did later and I did not hear of it. Was not a good thing! In this case, or cases, you would first have to get the BOD to take a unified stance, good luck with that also,by DG Guy - SN Tournament Information
Eric, That's a tough one. We all make some mistakes, to be sure, and I have made my share. Not being there prior to the event to attend the players meeting, it's easy to say this, or that, not that anything would help. Too many players are too busy socializing to pay attention to the TD explain how the course is to be played. I would have had to stop and get their attention. I have had toby DG Guy - SN Tournament Information
Here lies some problems, Knowing full well there is a difference in the structure of the PDGA and the SN, to be "governed" by PDGA rules it seems that perhaps they should be adopted in whole to avoid confusion and the expense of printing. I mean, after all, the SN's rules pretty well mimics the PDGA version anyway. I took it upon myself one year to compile and print a SN rulebookby DG Guy - SN Tournament Information
There are several issues that the BOD needs to respond to, having been on the board I KNOW there is no easy cut & dried solution to all the issues and problems that exist out there in the real world, but the attempt to communicate is first and foremost the best tool we have to make the difference and further the goals of the Southern Nationals. It would be so cool if there was a number theby DG Guy - SN Tournament Information
Eric, I beg to differ. I Had to DQ someone I thought was a friend for showing up late and just falling in with another group, clearly a rules violation, try it at the PDGA Worlds! I was tempted allowed it but there was a clear complaint from another in their division, on their card! NO CHOICE!

Jazz, true, Par could have been 4 and the recorded score would have then been an 8. Also as DiscJazz says, the Novice and Recreational divisions do not get points awarded to them.by DG Guy - SN Tournament Information
going on the information you posted, the late players would have carded a 7 each hole they failed to throw. There is a time limit to take your place in the throwing order. This rule is not subject to modification by the TD! The division has nothing to do with it, in fact, it is a disservice to the "novice" players that the rules of play do not have to be followed.by DG Guy - SN Tournament Information

Whether you're tying the knot in Brazil, Bermuda, or Boston, JoAnn Gregoli, who's been planning destination weddings for 10 years, has the answer. A Master Bridal Consultant (one of only 16 in the world), she's coordinated weddings for stars of all stripes, from Rupert Murdoch's daughter to NFL players and Sopranos star Jamie-Lynn DiScala.
How do I transport my gown to my destination?
Attention all brides -- whatever you do -- do not check your wedding gown! Luggage gets lost and abused and Murphy's Law says that if you check your wedding gown, both will happen. Instead, carry your gown on the plane with you and ask a flight attendant to hang it in the first-class cabin closet. The groom's wedding-wear is wearing should be hung in the same fashion.

This is a short video tutorial of some busty geek girl teaching you how to sound like Chewbacca. And I don't care how cute you think she is, watch her from 1:10 to 1:18 and then tell me that. Also, whether you follow the instructions or not, you're gonna end up looking retard... / Continue →

GORGEOUS AWARD!! Omg how gorge, do Kim & Kylie look at the Grand Opening of the Sugar Factory in Las Vegas?! So much fun at this TASTEFUL event! ;)
Joyce Bonelli
This is one of the other fun looks I tried out for my music video. It's definitely a different look from anything I've tried before! How amazing are those nails!? My song, Jam (Turn It Up), is now available to purchase on iTunes and a portion of the proceeds will go to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. See more pics from my music video here. **She looked so gorge, with so many different looks! This was SUCH a fun video to shoot! You are going to die when you see it! XO, Joyce Bonelli @jOYCEBONELLi
Joyce had noticed a lot of you guys asking for a Get the Glam guide to my Grammys look on Twitter and here on my blog. So, she has put together a step-by-step guide to creating this glamorous look!
We went for a really gorgeous golden eyes look to compliment the amazing Kaufman Franco gown and Lorraine Schwartz jewels I wore to the awards.
Thank you Joyce for always creating the perfect red carpet look! You dolls can follow her on Twitter for all her updates.
REMEMBER!! It's very Important to keep up on your skincare regimen to keep its glamour & to help you have a clean smooth look. On Kim I apply PerfectSkin, LaMer lifting serum, & PerfectSkin eye cream. To condition lips I used Clarks Botanicals Ultra Rich Lip Balm. *Don't be lazy, this also goes for washing your face at night! Use makeup remover wipes if you are too tired.
STEP 2: PRIMER I used HD Microperfecting Primer by Make Up For Ever to prep Kim's skin. *a FAB primer with six color-correcting shades that make it wearable for every skin type and color.
For this look I used HD Invisible Cover Foundation by Make Up For Ever. *This foundation is one of my favs for red carpet looks because of the flawless definition it leaves. It leaves the skin with a soft-focus finish and withstands harsh lighting like the flash bulbs of photographers and paparazzi.
I use High Definition Liquid Concealer by SMASHBOX. *Try blending from the outer corners in to keep concealer from settling in fine lines under the eyes for flawless coverage.
I like to set Kim's gorgeous skin with Photo Set Finishing Powder SPF 15 by SMASHBOX. *The perfect setting powder when dealing with hot lights like the ones on red carpets and photo-shoots. This powder helps make up last all day and also has SPF to help guard the skin from harmful UV rays.
I filled Kim's brows in with Le Crayon Sourcils Precision Brow Definer, in Taupe by Chanel. *Try bending the attached brush to make for an easier angle when shaping your brows.
Because of Kim's GORGEOUS dress, I wanted to give her a stand out eye full of golds and dramatic lashes. I used three different shades of eyeshadows on Kim, Blunt, Blaze, & Chopper Eyeshadows by Urban Decay. I started by applying the Blunt shade all over the lid, then I applied the Chopper shade just above the crease. I finished off the shadow by blending the two colors together with the Blaze shade in the crease of the eyelid. Powerpoint Eye Pencil in Engraved (rich black) by MAC, is what I used to line the inside of the upper and lower lash line. Along the eyelid, close to the lash line I used Liquid Eye Liner by MAC to draw on a thick, slightly winged out line, I also applied it just under the bottom lash line. For this look I layered on individual lashes to give a dramatic look and finished them off with Hypnose DRAMA by Lancome to make them pop. Remember, to finish off the eye, I curl her lashes using Shu Uemura eyelash curler.
To give Kim's cheeks a touch of color I first applied Blush in Rose by LORAC to the apples of her cheeks. On the hollow of her cheeks I applied a touch of Bronzing Powder in Laguna by NARS to make her cheeks pop with a soft contour.
Right above the apples of Kim's cheeks I applied Naked Pigment by M.A.C. to highlight her cheekbones.
To define Kim's gorgeous lip shape I used Le Crayon Leveres Precision Lip Definer in Natural by Chanel. Classic Cream Lipstick in Cashmere by Dolce & GABBANA is what I used to fill in the lip. I finished her lips with FUSION BEAUTY's Lip Fusion in Glow to give a high gloss coat with a touch of color. #MakeUpByJoyce XO, Joyce Bonelli @jOYCEBONELLiSTEP EIGHT: KIM'S CHEEKS

"JOYCE'S Guide to Creating My PCA Look"
Joyce is one of my best friends and she does my makeup!! We go on all kinds of adventures together like vintage clothes shopping, vintage furniture shopping, all sorts of crazy stuff! Her outfits inspire me every day that I see her! She has my back and makes sure that I win the gorgeous award! Lol! Joyce has put together a step-by-step guide to creating my People's Choice Awardslook. Read her guide here. Joyce also has blog you can check out. STEP 1: KOURTNEY'S SKIN DON'T FORGET GIRLS!! It's very Important to keep up on your skincare regimen to keep its glamour & to help you have a clean smooth look. On Kourt I apply PerfectSkin & PerfectSkin eye cream. To condition lips I used Clarks Botanicals Ultra Rich Lip Balm. *Don't be lazy, this also goes for using a cleanser on your pretty little face at night as well! If ONE night you happen to be too tired, use makeup remover wipes. STEP 2: PRIMER I used Photo Finish Foundation Primer by Smashbox. *On warm summer days try cooling your Foundation Primer in the refrigerator for refreshing the skin and reduce puffiness. STEP 3: FOUNDATION I used Photo 'Perfexion by Givenchy. When blended into the skin with a foundation brush for a flawless touch, this foundation gives a smoothing concealer effect with a weightless wear and a radiance "projector." STEP 4: UNDER EYES I use Secret Camouflage by Laura Mercier. *this product is the perfect trick for completely camouflaging dark circles, minor imperfections, and discoloration. STEP 5: SET Finally I set Kourt's entire face with Smashbox's Photo Set Finishing Powder with SPF 15. *this is perfect to keep makeup from melting away under the hot lights of a photoshoot or on the red carpet. REMEMBER don't use too much of this, just a little touch is all you need. STEP 6: BROWS I tweezed them using Tweezerman tweezers. Then filled them in with Benefit's Brow Zing. *use an angled brush and apply soft strokes of the pigmented wax to shape and define the brow, then take your small blending brush to apply and set the brow zing's powder to fill in sparse areas and lock the brows into place. STEP 7: KOURTNEY'S EYES To prime the lid I used Eyeshadow Primer Potion in Tawny Matte Finish by Urban Decay topped with Eyeshadow in Chopper by Urban Decay. *this is the perfect color for giving off a smokey dark golden pinkish glam look. M.A.C. has the perfect Eye Kohl in Smolder that I used to line Kourt's upper inner eye line. I also give a thick line on top of the lid close to the lash line. Remember, to finish off the eye, I curl her lashes using Shu Uemura eyelash curler. I gave Kourtney her lush lashes with Plush Lash by M.A.C.. STEP 8: KOURTNEY'S CHEEKS On the hollow of her cheeks I applied Bronzing Powder in Laguna by NARS. To give give that pinkish glow, I used a touch of CORALista Blush by Benefit to give a sheer natural hint of color. STEP 9: KOURTNEY'S LUMINOUS GLOW I applied Lust Dust by benefit right above the hollows of her cheeks & bridge of her nose. STEP 10: KOURTNEY'S LIPS XO,
First I lined her lips with a The Essential Pencil in Nude by Trish McEvoy. *Although this is a matte finish it helps to extend the wear of your favorite gloss or lip color. Next, I applied and blended lipstick in Pink Innocent by Trish McEvoy. I finished her lips with FUSION BEAUTY's Lip Fusion inFATuation in La Lip Jolie to give the glossy coat.
