Sina, Apple, Dell: Tech Premarket
This story has been updated with Foxconn's response.
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Sina (SINA) was a big gainer in premarket trading on Wednesday, lifted by the company's better-than-expected fourth-quarter results.
The Chinese Internet firm beat Wall Street's top- and bottom-line estimates and delivered solid guidance. Buoyed by the results, Sina shares rose 8.45% to $58 before market open.
Apple (AAPL) shares, however, dipped 0.76% to $456.50. On Wednesday , The Financial Times reported that Apple's manufacturing partner Foxconn has implemented a recruitment freeze at its Chinese factories as it slows production of the iPhone 5.Foxconn, however, says that the recruitment slowdown has nothing to do with the iPhone 5. "Due to an unprecedented rate of return of employees following the Chinese New Year holiday compared to years past, our company has decided to temporarily slow down our recruitment process," explained a spokeswoman, in an email to TheStreet. "This action is not related to any single customer and any speculation to the contrary is false and inaccurate." Apple has yet responded to TheStreet's request for comment on this story. Tech research firm Strategy Analytics, however, reported that Apple's iPhone 5 overtook Samsung's Galaxy S3 during the fourth quarter to become the world's best-selling smartphone. Shares of Dell (DELL), which beat Wall Street's estimates in its fourth-quarter results on Tuesday, slipped 0.04% to $13.81. The No. 3 PC maker didn't provide guidance for the first quarter of fiscal 2014, citing the recent announcement to take the company private. Vodafone (VOD) shares dipped 1.5% to $24.95 before market open, while chip design specialist ARM Holdings (ARMH) gained 0.09% to reach $43.81. Shares of Sony (SNE), which is expected to launch its PlayStation 4 game console on Wednesday evening, gained 0.2% to reach $14.68. --Written by James Rogers in New York.

SAN DIEGO – By Monday afternoon, the Chargers had forgotten the series of crushing losses suffered during the last three weeks.
"With games coming as fast as they've been coming, you don't have any choice but to forget about it, put it in the memory bank and move on,"
Players and coaches also seem to care less about readying for one of the most critical home games of the season with just four days of rest and prep time.
"We have a lot of great character in this locker room and we'll continue to fight,"
To understand how well San Diego started the season, the Bolts (4-4) have absorbed three consecutive disappointments and still are tied for first in the AFC West. To stay there in what's shaping into hotly-contested division, the Chargers need to handle their most familiar opponents.
That means answering the bell for what's expected to be one of the more intense, aggressive games of this season. To prepare, San Diego has to be sharp as ever mentally to compensate for the lack of physical repetition.
"You can't go out there and actually go through the reps," Spikes said. "You need this time to regenerate the body. It's more important than ever that everybody understands the mental aspect of it has to be sharp."
Said Head Coach Norv Turner: "I'd like their bodies to feel like it's Sunday morning when we get going (Thursday)."
Playing perhaps his best game of the season in terms of getting upfield for tough yards and not trying to create too much by running sideways, Tolbert, seemingly with eyes in the back of his head, still made several defenders miss, high-stepping past a diving A.J. Hawk.
Tolbert had to carry the load with
"You're asking a back to not really take any rests,"
"Guys like him, they're the reason we haven't faltered in these tough times. Sometimes the most trying times are the most gratifying in the long run."
CONFIDENCE UP: San Diego scored three touchdowns in the final 17 minutes of the game Sunday, then got well within Packers territory on two other drives. The 38 points, most by the Chargers in 20 games, proved San Diego's offense still is capable of scoring in bunches.
"I think it was a large confidence-builder with Philip, myself, and our entire offense to come down and put together (drives) like that and finally get some touchdowns on the board without field goals," said
"When we have to go and press on the gas, we can go."
The Chargers' mindset seems cemented. Every player seems unified by the impetus to keep grinding, no matter what the record, score or game situation. There wasn't a perceptible change on the sideline when San Diego fell behind 45-24 nearly five minutes into the fourth quarter.
"We've got nobody in here that's going to back down and turn the other way just because we've got the Green Bay Packers or anybody in front of us,"

December turned out to be the cruelest month for Hollywood's poster boys for bad behavior. In a sobering one-two-three punch, Robert Downey Jr., 32, and Christian Slater, 28, were sentenced to jail on heroin and cocaine charges, and Chris Farley, 33, was found dead after a four-day alcohol and drug binge.
Many hope Farley's death, coming on the heels of the surprise jailing of Downey and Slater, will be a wake-up call for an industry that has grown too tolerant of substance abuse. ''It will serve as an alarm to some,'' says actor Esai Morales, 35, who counts Downey among his friends and who hung out with Farley on several occasions, ''and not to others. Hollywood is a state of mind. A lot of people like Farley get sucked up in that and can't handle it. The suits know that but go ahead and hire them anyway.'' An employee at one of the most powerful agencies in town is also eager to see a change. ''They don't give a s--- if an actor is using drugs,'' he says. ''The agency's perspective is, as long as you don't go to jail, who cares?''
Downey, Slater, and Farley, as well as Charlie Sheen (also famous for his outlandish behavior) have enjoyed thriving film careers despite their drug or legal troubles. And in Downey's case, the perspective has been, even if you do go to jail, who cares? He made four movies almost back-to-back after leaving court-appointed lockdown rehab in January 1997. And in interviews before Farley's death but after the Slater/Downey sentencings, directors, producers, and agents said they turn a blind eye to drug use among stars. Says Shane Stanley, 26, who cowrote No Code of Conduct with Sheen, ''Just because Robert has a little problem with heroin or Christian did a little blow doesn't mean you should write them off.'' Adds director Robert Altman, who hired Downey for the upcoming Gingerbread Man: ''It's not my position to tell anyone what to do. It's none of my business.... Samuel Taylor Coleridge was a drug addict all his life.''
And he would feel very much at home in Hollywood today, where the reborn just-say-yes attitude seems to be spawning a club scene to match. In recent months, the Viper Room, the Sunset Strip symbol of heroin use in the entertainment industry ever since River Phoenix died outside its doors, has been joined by a new group of hip Sunset Strip nightspotsall very reminiscent of the go-go '80s. Even the drug of choice among partygoers at these more luxe nightclubs is retro: Coke is it.
Talk to narcotics investigators with the L.A. Police Department and Sheriff's Department and they'll say cocaine never completely went away after its late 1970s-early '80s heydayit only moved underground. Yet they report a slight increase in cocaine busts (meanwhile, the Coast Guard, aided by other law-enforcement agencies, seized a record 103,617 pounds of cocaine in the year ending Sept. 30more than triple the total from the previous 12 months). Industry people agree that, after several years of heroin chic, cocaine has indeed resurfaced. ''I've done movies where people did coke [because] there was so much pressure to get it done that there was no time to rest,'' says an indie-film actor who has also witnessed use among a few high-powered movie agents. ''They were just using [it] like caffeine.''

Hubby and I are, admittedly, pillow snobs. Our old goose down pillows are finally worn out, and we have been searching for a new pair for about a year. After researching goose down pillow specifics, such as fill power and weight, and after reading through all the other user reviews concerning this particular pillow, we took the risk of ordering a pair. We knew within a few minutes that these pillows do not even begin to compare to our old ones. After letting them fluff up, and they did look pretty, we discovered that the fluff and support were only visual--the pillows flattened with the least amount of weight. If you want pillows that look pretty and fluffy on your bed, these will do, though they are an expensive option. However, if you want a great goose down pillow that keeps its fluff and support when you lay your head on it, keep looking. Also, though the product description states that the pillows consist only of goose down and cotton (for the cover), the pillow tag reads, "Minimum 75% goose down" instead of "100% goose down."
I have a bit of a bedding addiction. I am constantly buying duvets, pillows, covers, sheets. I seek nothing less than perfection in my night's sleep. Even my SO and friends have commented on how fabulous my bed is. And the highlight of my bed is easily these pillows. They're wonderfully soft--the only reason to buy down, in my opinion--yet they offer a startling amount of support. I've purchased (many) other down pillows in the past (in fact, I used to buy two pillows every year or two--again, addiction), but my quest for the perfect pillow has ended. This is the holy grail.
I had been shopping for down pillows for a while to replace the ones that I already had. I shopped a lot and these pillows really were about half the price of comparable pillows in the local stores. I was concerned about the smell that other reviewers had mentioned. My pillows did not smell at all. The fabric is excellent. The pillows are not quite as firm as I had hoped, but I would definintely recommend these pillows.
Been sleeping on this pillow for approximately 10 days and this 75% Down is an average pillow with a medium to less firmness. This little lady fluffs right back into shape if you just fluff it up gently. For the price of $$$ it is nice little pillow and I am satisfied with it and I treat it well. Fluff it up each morning, putting it back into shape. Airing in weekly on porch or deck for about one hour. (Without the pillow case on just the zippered protector). Once a month I put my expensive Hungarian Gosse Down in the dryer with (2) tennis balls, on Fluff for about 10 mins. Good for the pillows - get the moisture out in the summertime and the pillows stand to quick attention. This Siberian down has a lovely cover on the down, however, I recommend also putting a zippered protector on a pillow. JC Penneys sells some great protectors for only $8.00 for two. As I stated above I have an expensive goose down pillow and believe me folks they set you back a pretty penny. I have a standard goose down and it cost $106.00 on sale and it is for side sleepers with 22 oz. down and it is FIRM. I love it but ladies this little Siberian white down pillow is a nice, comfortable pillow for the price. By the way folks, there no such thing as 'Siberian white down' all the internet sites state it I know but if you google it - it will give you true facts. NO such a thing as Siberian down, check it out for yourself. There is NO such a thing as a great cheap good down. For $$$ my pillow stays beside the expensive one, either on the side of it or behind it and they make a great couple. Think they are beginning to like each other. One good thing about this little pillow it can be turned into any shape for comfort of the head, neck and shoulders and with a little fluff it is back in shape. Mine looks great and I hope it lasts. I'm taking good care of it. Have anice summer folks.
I am so pleased with this down pillow! I had disc replacement surgery on 4 vertabrae in my neck last year and out of all the pillows I have tried, this pillow gives me the proper support for my neck without sacrificing the luxurious softness of a high quality down pillow! It is filled with just the right amount of down, firm, but soft enough to shape how I want it to be for a wonderful night's sleep without neck pain when I wake up! Thank you very much Overstock!
I have bought many down pillows over the years and these were the worst. You lay your head down on it and hit the bed...lowest fill power I have ever seen. I can't believe that people actually have good things to say about these. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME AND MONEY HERE.
These pillows are soft and luxurious. I plan to give them to family as Christmas presents.
Pillows are way too soft. They wasn't the quality or have the support I was looking for.
Great pillow. Yep, has a few feathers in it as other reviewers have said. Incredibly small percentage, tho. Really nice down. Comes flat as a pancake - 5 mins in the drier on air fluff and its puffy, or just shake 'em out a bit before putting on the pillow case. These are as nice as the ones I've paid $XXX for before.
Thought I was purchasing 700llb fill . Pillow depth very thin. Fabric is fine. Would definitely not purchase again

trendY Zelune Proxy Template
It's a fantastic feeling to stumble upon a great script, that fits your every need, at least at that exact moment. Zelune is one such script that landed in my lap after an afternoon of Google stare.
Zelune is a proxy script that imitates PHProxy but simply has worked so much better on my new server. With a few, differences this script owns and modification could not be easier. That's why I started dedicating some of my time to the creation of Proxy Templates. Alas, here is my first, which is a port from FreeCSSTemplates.org.
And thanks for any reviews, don't forget to let me know if you use it.
10 Comments
Hey, I stumbled upon your blog and wanted to thank you for the nice review, and wanted to congratulate you on your successful port of the free proxy template.
With your permission, I would love to add your template to the new zelune proxy templates section at http://www.zelune.net/zelune-proxy-themes.
I will of course link to your blog as well.
Email me at firstname.lastname@example.com with your response.
PS: I got a lot of emails asking to change the javascript popup frame into the phproxies html frame, so I added the option. If you would like to switch, you can find the source at http://www.zelune.net/version3.txt.
Keep up the great blog!
Hi i am just leting you no i am the new owner of zelune.net i will keep your link there no prob i all so be add some new features very soon
Hi there yes ill be glad to add them to the site i am thinking of so much more for the site to gen more traffic as i have lots of thinks i am in to allso a top rank for zelune.net and a small auction for zelune proxys may be other proxys as well.
Those are some nice templates.
Did you make these ones?
That where I stumbled across this blog.
The zelune proxy script is known as "the world's fastest proxy script", because, unlike it's competitors, zelune uses cURL to download the files through the proxy. This allows for a better compression of the pages, ultimately making the zelune proxy script incredibly fast, while being very light on the server's bandwidth and resources. In any proxy webmasters mind, the speed and efficiency are the main two things to look for in a proxy script, and zelune is the best on both.
hi i love proxy i can get on it at school without getting in to truble i love it

When a House Becomes a Home
Categories: Boots On The Ground: Service Stories, Making Our Difference: TBL CSR
Last September during Timberland Serv-a-palooza (our annual global community service event), over 150 Timberland employees, associates, friends and family members pulled on their boots and spent the day in the rainy parking lot at our Stratham, NH headquarters. The project: working with Habitat for Humanity to frame five houses that would be given to families from Joplin, Missouri whose homes were devastated by last spring's tornadoes.
Inspired by Timberland's commitment, the Tulsa Oklahoma Habitat for Humanity matched and exceeded our donation by framing an additional ten houses for the Joplin community.
Six months later, I'm excited to report that all fifteen houses are now finished and occupied by happy homeowners, including Amber Lancaster and her two sons. They couldn't be more appreciative or deserving of the Timberland house they're now calling home:

Pulling On Our Boots for Serv-a-palooza
Categories: Boots On The Ground: Service Stories, Making Our Difference: TBL CSR
Tomorrow marks the beginning of a month-plus community service effort, carried out by Timberland employees across the globe. The initiative is "Serv-a-palooza" – what started as a one-day, annual event where Timberland employees would abandon their desks and day jobs to serve in their local communities, and has grown to become a weeks-long series of service events executed in countries and communities around the world — all focused on meeting critical needs, creating sustainable impact and celebrating the power and passions of Timberland employees.
Serv-a-palooza is more than an event – it's a representation of what we do best, which is sharing our strength to create positive outcomes. Our employees' commitment to and passion for service is far too great to fit in an 8-hour workday, and so to see the program grow much bigger and broader than it was when we started 14 years ago isn't just gratifying – it's absolutely necessary.
Timberland President & CEO, Jeff Swartz
Throughout September and October, Timberland employees and partners will pull on their boots and make a difference through service projects which speak to our company's New England heritage, commitment to social and environmental responsibility, and passion for the outdoors.
In New Hampshire, hundreds of Timberland employees will do their part tomorrow to positively impact their local communities – as well as those that are not so local. At our corporate headquarters in Stratham, volunteers will frame four houses for Habitat for Humanity. Two of the houses will go to families from Joplin, Missouri, whose homes were destroyed by tornadoes earlier this year, and two houses will go to families in need in Kansas City, Missouri.
Other Stratham-area projects taking place tomorrow will include painting and landscaping at a non-profit and community center, and constructing an outdoor stage and amphitheatre for the town of Newmarket. Timberland's first New Hampshire headquarters and factory were located in Newmarket, and the small mill town is affectionately considered the "birthplace" of the Timberland® brand.
Our roots are in Newmarket … it seems only fitting that our boots are headed back there. Many employees – including me – have really precious memories of our early days in Newmarket, and I hope the space and the foundation we create there will help create the same kind of memories for others in the future.

Offering Help and Hope for Joplin
Categories: Hikers to Handsewns: Products & Design, Making Our Difference: TBL CSR, Who We Are, What We Do: TBL Culture & People
Ten days ago, a tornado devastated Joplin, MO, a city of 50,000 people. The storm destroyed 30% of the city, including an estimated 5,000 homes and businesses, and killed more than 100 people. 10 people are still missing. Today marks the beginning of the lengthy (and costly) process of removing the debris so that Joplin can eventually rebuild.
From the wake of this storm emerge many inspirational stories. One comes from Cintas, a uniform rental and supply company that Timberland does business with, located 45 minutes from Joplin. Within days of the storm, Cintas partnered with the American Red Cross and a network of local organizations to gather and transport urgently needed relief items (including first aid supplies, safety apparel, work boots, gloves, tarps, hand sanitizer, snack foods, and water) to Joplin. The Cintas Cares Convoy has committed to make deliveries to Joplin every other day until the demand for such items declines.
Following the Joplin tornado, Cintas issued a call to its various vendors (Timberland included) to ask for donated items needed for the recovery effort. As a result, a shipment of Timberland PRO boots is currently on its way to Cintas and will be delivered to the recovery workers in Joplin by the end of this week.
Cintas isn't alone in its support of tornado victims; Convoy of Hope, an organization based in Springfield, MO is spearheading much of the recovery work and has already delivered over 500,000 pounds of food, water and supplies to survivors. Click here to learn more about Convoy of Hope and how you can support their work in Joplin.
We're grateful to Cintas for giving us an opportunity to be part of the recovery and rebuilding efforts in Joplin, and to organizations like Convoy of Hope for the important work they do to provide much needed aid and support.

Employees at former Vinyls Italia Porto Marghera site leave their posts
9:37 AM MST | February 4, 2013 | Francinia Protti-Alvarez
Workers maintaining safety and security at the former Vinyls Italia site in Porto Marghera, Italy, have walked off the job in protest of nonpayment of nine months of unpaid salaries, according to a report in Venezia Today. About 30 employees left their posts this morning and said they would abandon the site at the change of shift if their outstanding salaries failed to arrive, the report says. Only three employees were said to be remaining inside the plant in the wastewater storage facility. While the three employees also stand by their colleagues, the...

Never too young for a lesson in inclusion
I teach a group of first-graders at a congregational Hebrew school once a week. Recently, seven-year old Rachel turned to her friend Sophie and declared, "You're a half-Jew!"
Sophie, a normally vibrant, articulate Hebrew school student herself, became instantly reserved.
"Rachel!" I exclaimed.
"What?" Rachel questioned, sensing my admonishing tone.
I asked Rachel what she noticed about Sophie's reaction to her words. "She looks sad," Rachel observed. I asked her why she thought that Sophie looked sad, and if she thought that it had anything to do with calling her half-Jewish. "But she is a half-Jew!" Rachel declared, "Emily told me so!"
"It may be that one of Sophie's parents comes from a different background," I explained. "But that doesn't mean that Sophie is not part of our community."
"Calling me 'half-Jewish' makes me feel like I'm half a person," Sophie softly added.
When Rachel began to realize the effect of her words, she said "I think I made a mistake with my mouth." I encouraged her, honoring the fact that in this interaction, she — a seven-year-old — had come to learn just a bit of what some seventy-year olds still have yet to understand: that the words we speak can be very hurtful, and make others feel unwelcome. It is imperative that we use language that is welcoming! Sophie is an equally important part of our Hebrew School class and must be treated as such. While some children of intermarriage take on the mantle of "half-Jew" with pride, that's for them to decide, not for us to label.
1 Comment
There were only a few times in my childhood that I or my brothers tried to trot out the "half-Jew" label (being raised as Conservative Jews by our Jewish mother and non-Jewish father)–and only as a lame attempt to wiggle out of obligations we felt like ducking:"If I'm only half Jewish, why do I have to go to Hebrew school?" Mom, let it be said, was having none of this. And we to Hebrew School we went!

Eastbound Main Lanes of Woodall Rodgers Freeway Closed to Through Traffic this Weekend Traffic will be detoured to I-30
DALLAS - The contractor, Archer Western, contracted by The Texas Department of Transportation to construct the Woodall Rodgers Deck Park, will close the eastbound main lanes of Woodall Rodgers Freeway to through traffic this weekend. This closure will begin at midnight Saturday night, March 19, 2011, and will re open by 5:00 a.m. Monday morning, March 21, 2011.
This closure will also involve closing the eastbound frontage road between St. Paul Street and Pearl Street. The eastbound frontage road closure will begin at 5 a.m. Sunday morning, March 20, 2011 and will continue until 3 p.m. Sunday afternoon, March 20, 2011. This is the last complete mainlane closure this month. We do not expect any other complete mainlane closures for approximately two months. These closures are necessary to ensure the safety of the traveling public during the complex operations involved in the placing of beams for the project. The beams serve as the base of the park located above the freeway.
Both northbound and southbound I-35 E traffic bound for eastbound Woodall Rodgers will be detoured to eastbound I-30. Eastbound frontage road traffic will be detoured south on St. Paul Street then east on Ross Avenue then back north on Pearl Street back to the eastbound frontage road.
Motorists should seek alternate routes to navigate to their destinations through downtown Dallas this weekend. Signage has been in place informing motorists of the upcoming closure.
TxDOT strives to minimize the impact of these closures to area motorists by limiting the work to occur during off-peak hours or weekends, limiting the number of closures and as noted above, gives consideration to weekend events in the area.
Information on future construction activities will be posted on TxDOT's website at www.txdot.gov in addition to postings on the Woodall Rodgers Park Foundation website at www.theparkdallas.org under the mobility section.
TxDOT awarded the $44.5 million dollar contract to Archer Western to construct the deck and plaza over Woodall Rodgers Freeway. The project starts west of St. Paul and extends 1/4 mile to east of Pearl Street, and when complete, will create a short tunnel.
This partnership project between TxDOT, the City of Dallas and the private sector included $16.7 million dollars of enhancement funding from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act and is scheduled to be completed in early 2012.
TxDOT asks motorists to drive carefully through the work zone and appreciates their patience during this unique and exciting project.

I thought I would get a lot more done this past month than I did. I had hoped to post the URL of the new site today, but it's nowhere near ready for users.
The new home of the Taming Archive is being written from the ground up. The design will still feel familiar, though. All of the online utilities will be there in a new and improved form.
New utilities will be added as well. There will be brand new forums that won't get hacked all the time like phpBB. New news system, guild features, article system, and a wide variety of other things that will be sure to please everyone. Some of these tools have been in development for months.

This is just a reminder... this site is officially no more in 15 days, since that's when the domain name is expiring. Most likely, the domain will be gobbled up by someone hoping to make a quick buck off of this site's high Google ranking.
The recent down time had nothing to do with the site closing. Another project I was working on was causing our co-locate to not respond, and spending $25 (or more) to have it rebooted (something we've needed to have done 3 times so far) just isn't logical to keep a completely non-profit site going 24/7.
My other project is indirectly related to the future of this site. Think Stratics, but better. However, due to the downtime issues, there's no way it can be completed before this domain expires. In the mean time, I will be setting up a mirror of this site on another domain I own. It will remain there until my other project is ready.
Category: Site News
If you're reading this, you're on the new server. The forum doesn't seem to be letting anyone log in, not quite sure why yet. Hopefully, that will get fixed within the next few days.Update: Forum appears to be working again. I hope. Send me an email if you find anything broken.

I realize this is short notice, but the Taming Archive will be going down for an unknown amount of time. For those unfamiliar, Generic Player's work has been hosting this site, and he is no longer going to work there. The site will come back up once we get a co-locate set up in Toronto. Hopefully, the down time is minimal.
