6 Electronics Penny Stocks With Upside
By Louis Navellier for InvestorPlace
NEW YORK ( InvestorPlace) -- If you're looking to cash in on the tech boom, consider these 5 electronics company penny stocks. They aren't true penny stocks, because they trade for more than a dollar a share, but all are incredibly affordable and have offered investors breakout growth recently.
Here are my five penny stocks to buy this week:
Advanced Photonix
Advanced Photonix (API) develops and manufactures optoelectronic devices and systems. That's a fancy way of saying it makes parts for an array of devices that deal with light and UV waves, from liquid crystal displays to lasers to solar cells. API is a supplier, and mainly works with global manufacturers from various industries instead of creating complete devices on its own. Over the past 12 months, API stock has jumped 119%, compared with a gain of 10% for the Dow Jones Industrial Average. Impressively, this penny stock is up 60% over the past three months alone. Another important statistic worth noting is API's quarterly revenue, which is up 29% year over year. API trades near its 52-week high with a range of 41 cents to $2.18, so now may be a time to buy before another leg up.
LRADBased in California, LRAD (LRAD) designs, develops and sells sound technologies and products. LRAD is known by many as American Technology Company, which is its former name. Since last January, LRAD stock has climbed 74%, compared to smaller gains by the broader markets. After slipping slightly in late September, LRAD stock is up 45% over the past three months. LRAD is also just off its 52-week high of $3.10. Buy this stock now.
RF MonolithicsRF Monolithics (RFMI) is a designer, developer and manufacturer of wireless connectivity products. RFMI has posted large gains over the past 12 months, and in that time the penny stock is up 76%. More recently, RFMI has gained 69% over the past two weeks. Likewise, RFMI posted a quarterly revenue growth of 14%, year over year, in its last income statement. Lastly, RFMI is a penny stock worth buying, because it is currently trading very close to its 52-week high.

Advocates Call for Greater Access to 3-D Mammography
Illinois lawmakers got a lesson in high-tech breast cancer detection today as they looked into a new technology: 3-D mammography.
This is through a new initiative to create access for more women to have 3-D mammogram screenings. The advantage to 3-D screenings is that they pick up smaller invasive cases.
But advocates say not enough women have access to the technology. Medicaid does not cover the procedures.
"We would hope that there would be Medicaid coverage, certainly, so that all women would have access to this, and not just women who have private insurance," Sally Friedewald of Caldwell Breast Cancer Center said. "Even with the women who have private insurance, there's variable coverage, and so again, we want to increase awareness so that there's more coverage for all women."
Advocates for increasing access tell us the procedure could save costs, because women are less likely to have false alarms that oftentimes occur with 2-D screenings. This would lower costs for patients, because cases would be detected earlier, and prevent patients from having to return to repeat the screening.

Apple is heavily rumored to be planning to unveil a wrist-worn accessory, dubbed the "iWatch," later this year. The device is expected to connect to the iPhone and will measure fitness and health information from the wearer.
- Apple's anticipated iWatch is rumored to:
- Have two sizes for men and women
- Be able to measure pulse and motion
- Utilize new iPhone features in iOS 8
- Go on sale in late 2014
Rumor summary
iWatch concept by Todd Hamilton
Apple is said to be working on a wrist-worn device that would go far beyond telling time, allowing users to measure and track health and fitness data with a new wearable device. The company has filed in numerous countries for ownership of the name "iWatch," and as such the rumored product is commonly referred to by that moniker.
Apple's iWatch is expected be able to operate independently of an iPhone or iPad, but is also rumored to feature functions that are iOS-exclusive like health monitoring apps.
The device is said to come in two sizes, with screens between 1.3 and 1.5 inches, allowing designs for both men and women. Some rumors have claimed Apple will adopt a flexible AMOLED display with a sapphire glass cover, allowing for a comfortable yet durable design.
However, specifics on exactly how the device might appear, or what functions it will actually be able to accomplish, remain unknown. The iWatch, if it ever becomes a reality, is truly Apple's next big thing, an anticipated secret device in the same class as the first iPhone or iPad.
Reports have suggested the iWatch will debut this fall and go on sale in time for the holiday shopping season.
Patents, trademarks & hires
AppleInsider was first to discover an Apple patent filing describing a watch design with flexible display.
Last year, it was revealed that Apple had specifically applied for ownership of the product name "iWatch." It's possible that Apple has been acquiring the rights to the name iWatch around the world under its own name as well as through dummy corporations such as "Brightflash."
The company has even updated its trademark for the name Apple itself, expanding the company's product categories to "Class 14 (Jewelry)."
Apple has even gone as far as to file patent applications for inventions that describe a wrist-worn device with a flexible touchscreen display. Apple's filings describe a device that would conform to a user's body through the use of a "slap bracelet" mechanism.
Finally, Apple has also hired a number of personnel from the industries of fashion, fitness and medicine, leading many to speculate that those three categories will represent the key functions of an iWatch.
Mockups & concepts
No one actually knows what an Apple iWatch would look like, but enthusiasts have attempted to dream up how they believe the company might design such a device. Some of those concepts are included here.

1. kasparov-dominated everyone but
2. karpov-tournament victories and title defenses against great players
3. botvinik-changed the way chess was played, iron will immense ability
4. Lasker- how long as champion? 27 years or so then immpressive results post championship era
5. capablanca- wow that man could play
Keres?! Come on, he never even held the WCC title!
Asked for '' best '' not most titles ?
Paul Keres one of the best-players of all time & goes in my top 5.
All right, so how was Keres better than Tal or Alekhine or Lasker?
We never know now since war intervened in the middle that period of history...
He did have some fine games with Alekhine.
I admire Keres as much as anyone, but Alekhine was one of his worst opponents. Alekhine had 5-1 in wins and all their games were played 1935-43 when Alekhine was between 43 and 51 years old and had passed his peak. Of course Keres also improved later but was top ten at Chessmetrics throughout that period and did win AVRO 1938, so he was already a very strong player even if Alekhine was a difficult opponent for him.
People saying, "Carlsen" are about 15-20 years premature. He's an enormous talent, but he hasn't even participated in a world championship yet. In fact, he didn't feel ready to face an aging Anand at this time and let this championship cycle pass him by and go to Gelfand.
He said it had to do with FIDE changing the rules and deciding the Candidates in a knockout. Of course you may be right that it was an excuse because he "didn't feel ready to face an aging Anand", but I don't think it's a fact.
Anyway, no one is suggesting that Carlsen is one of the greatest players ever achievement wise at 21. But it's definitely possible that the Carlsen of 2009-12 has been playing better chess than Anand and Kramnik even if he hasn't won as many titles since he is so much younger.
Yes Alekhine was '' thorn-in-side '' for Keres. But a benchmark of brilliant players is the new lines/theories they introduce to the game. True of Fischer,Kasparov,Keres,Karpov & many others mentioned here :)
I do agree that Carlsen's talent is innate, natural & brilliant. No question he is most exciting player around currently.
what if i post a pic of a chess player?
"Does a top 5 OF ALL TIME refuse to stake his claim as champion because it's a knockout tourny? What ofther criteria should we use than achievement in chess?"
Well, Fischer, Kramnik and Anand refused to participate in many cycles for all kinds of reasons but that doesn't necessarily make them weaker than players that top the rating lists today. I don't think Carlsen can be said to be playing worse chess than he does because he didn't participate in the knockout. If it's a question of career achievements it's obvious that Carlsen can't be compared to Karpov, if it's a question of playing strength he might be about the same level. It's difficult to compare but chess evolves and Carlsen is winning the Chess Oscar for best player of the year for the third time in a row for 2011 and that's an achievement in itself considering the competition from players like Anand and Kramnik.
People saying, "Carlsen" are about 15-20 years premature. He's an enormous talent, but he hasn't even participated in a world championship yet. In fact, he didn't feel ready to face an aging Anand at this time and let this championship cycle pass him by and go to Gelfand. He has much to prove; especially in match format.
It's difficult to say who the best players of all time are because each generation learns something from the previous one. If you're talking about natural or innate talent; then Morphy, Capablanca, Fischer, Karpov, Kasparov, Carlsen are excellent picks.
'Best' players? We need to define what we mean by 'best'. If we mean 'strongest player irrespective of time' it naturally favors modern players who know more than earlier players. So 1.Kasparov, 2.Karpov, 3.Fischer, 4.Anand, 5.Kramnik.
who says Kasparov in first place its wrong, i say Fischer. The best player of all times. 3 reasons: Mindgame( was the reason why he won in iceland and was the first chess american player to be worldchampion, defeating the russians). second reason: Strong figther against u.s. politician. 3 reason: Wow, dream games that he did against his opponents...FISCHER PLAYS LIKE FISCHER, THE REST PLAYS CHESS!!

Three Improved Etsy Items
I've individually cast, packaged and shipped over 200 of these to customers the world over, and might have made way more, if only an ersatz copy from China hadn't shown up to steal most of my internet traffic. But now they're in a new, translucent material to make them more lifelike than ever. Still $25 for 16 gigs of memory, same as you'd pay if you were to buy a crummy one from those copycats.
Also cast in a new material, and polychromed with acrylic paints. The original transparent orange version is still available as well.
Now available in the custom-ordered monochromatic tint of your choice. Choose from the samples or invent your own.
Here's the Fearnet video again if you haven't seen it yet, this time embeddable:
Finally, mark your calendars for two events in September, both here in LA: Monsterpalooza and Days of the Dead. Look for the Novelties by Stexe banner. I'll be selling most of the items from the Etsy store, as well as a few miscast and discontinued sculptures for pennies on the dollar, so get there early. Spin the Wheel of Prizes (with any $25+ purchase), swipe some swag, or pick up your internet-prepaid customized novelties to avoid shipping costs. Contact me via Etsy messaging for any such requests.

Movie of the Week: Night Train to Terror (1985)
This anthology was mostly assembled post-mortem in an editing suite, condensing three features - in order, Scream Your Head Off (unfinished), Death Wish Club (1983) and Cataclysm (1980) - to digestible length. Voiceover dialogue tries its best to fill in the plot holes. There's also the train scenes: newly shot interstitial footage to allegedly link the stories together. It's a disorienting, fun, stupid, short-attention-span experience. It could be the strangest, dumbest filmmaking you've seen in all of your years, and yet, few other films have this much entertainment value to offer.
Technical note: this youtube rip is surely copied from one of those bargain basement "50 movies for ten dollars" DVD box sets. The picture quality is wretched. Embrace it as a nostalgic VHS experience, or rent/buy the hi-def blu-ray that was released last year.

Movie of the Week: Just Before Dawn (1981)
New to me, but apparently it's had an enthusiastic following for years. Easily the finest film I've seen from director Jeff Lieberman, best known for Squirm, Blue Sunshine and Satan's Little Helper, movies that aren't all that great. But this has a nice on-location Oregonian setting for the entire film, talented cinematography, and a buildup of suspense that takes its time and doesn't transition to full-blown horror until the third or fourth reel.
Unfairly grouped into the Slasher genre because of the era in which it was released, as well as the teenagers-in-peril scenario. But if you except the opening and closing scenes, there's almost no onscreen violence. It's more closely related to Deliverance, The Hills Have Eyes and Blastfighter: crazy redneck retards hunting down unarmed civilized people in a remote environment is a tried and true, can't-miss formula when done well. It's an assured, practically tasteful thriller.
This youtube video resolution sure is crummy. Looks like a VHS rip. Maybe even a rip of a copy of a VHS done at the cheapskate six-hour EP speed that I always used. There's a better free version here. Or you can always buy or rent it on disc, if you're the type who does that sort of thing.

Jack Hill Double Feature: The Big Doll House (1971) and The Big Bird Cage (1972)
A double-dose of feminist / misogynist Filipino thrills! Doll House invented the genre, with a 125k budget and a 10 million dollar box office draw. But I way prefer the followup Bird Cage for being more technically accomplished and fun. Also, unlike the first film, Bird Cage had a screenplay written by Jack Hill, so his tongue-in-cheek satirical edge makes the inherently sleazy scenario more palatable.

Bizarre: The Show for 11-Year Old Boys at Sleepovers
The above title describes how I personally experienced Bizarre, which began airing in 1980 (when cable television first became available in our neighborhood). Staying over at a friend's house, watching a premium channel I didn't have at home, late at night on a weekend, with the volume way down so his parents wouldn't hear, slogging through unfunny skits just for those couple seconds of nudity at the end. It was quite the treat in the pre-internet era for a kid in the sixth grade, let me tell you.
Amazingly, this show was produced by CTV in Canada. It was broadcast there without nakedness or swears (they filmed alternate takes, with the actresses wearing bras or shot from the back) and sold the uncensored version to the Showtime network here in the states for syndication. But without the "adult" content, there seems to be no point. The script is just a means to an end. Witness these three examples, below. They're the Showtime versions, but nudity is obscured by the uploader in accordance with Youtube policy. Even so, if your co-workers see you watching this, they'll think you're a creep. And a dumbass. Enjoy!

will most likely be the line up for the magic. svg said arenas and jameer will be playing 30 mins a game together. hedo likes to run the point forward, so i wouldn't be surprised if he plays with the second unit. im somewhat happy with this trade, but we still need another PF/C type of player because howard loves his fouls and bass cannot handle playing against most of the traditional PFs.

US takes on violent Afghan valley that bled Brits
U.S. Marines who recently inherited this lush river valley in southern Helmand province from British forces have tossed aside their predecessor's playbook in favor of a more aggressive strategy to tame one of the most violent places in Afghanistan.
Associated Press
U.S. Marines who recently inherited this lush river valley in southern Helmand province from British forces have tossed aside their predecessor's playbook in favor of a more aggressive strategy to tame one of the most violent places in Afghanistan.
U.S. commanders say success is critical in Sangin district - where British forces suffered nearly one-third of their deaths in the war - because it is the last remaining sanctuary in Helmand where the Taliban can freely process the opium and heroin that largely fund the insurgency.
The district also serves as a key crossroads to funnel drugs, weapons and fighters throughout Helmand and into neighboring Kandahar province, the spiritual heartland of the Taliban and the most important battleground for coalition forces. The U.S.-led coalition hopes its offensive in the south will kill or capture key Taliban commanders, rout militants from their strongholds and break the insurgency's back. That will allow the coalition and the Afghans to improve government services, bring new development and a sense of security.
"Sangin has been an area where drug lords, Taliban and people who don't want the government to come in and legitimize things have holed up," said Lt. Col. Jason Morris, commander of the 3rd Battalion, 5th Marine Regiment. The unit took over responsibility for Sangin in mid-October nearly a month after the British withdrew.
That withdrawal - after more than 100 deaths over four years of combat - has raised concerns among some in Britain about the perception of U.S. Marines finishing a job the British couldn't handle. Many claimed that happened in the Iraqi city of Basra in 2007.
U.S. commanders denied that's the case in Sangin and said the withdrawal was just the final step in consolidating British forces in central Helmand and leaving the north and south to the Americans. Sangin is located in the north of the province.
But one of the first things the Marines did when they took over Sangin was close roughly half the 22 patrol bases the British set up throughout the district - a clear rejection of the main pillar of Britain's strategy, which was based on neighborhood policing tactics used in Northern Ireland.
The bases were meant to improve security in Sangin, but the British ended up allocating a large percentage of their soldiers to protect them from being overrun by the Taliban. That gave the insurgents almost total freedom of movement in the district.
"The fact that a lot of those patrol bases were closed down frees up maneuver forces so that you can go out and take the fight to the enemy," Morris said during an interview at the battalion's main base in the district center, Forward Operating Base Jackson.
As Morris spoke, the sound of heavy machine gun fire and mortar explosions echoed in the background for nearly 30 minutes as Marines tried to kill insurgents who were firing at the base from a set of abandoned compounds about 500 feet away.
The Marines later called in an AC-130 gunship to launch a Hellfire missile, a 500-pound bomb and a precision-guided artillery round at the compounds, rocking the base with deafening explosions that shook dirt loose from the ceilings of the tents. Tribal elders later said the munitions killed seven Taliban fighters.
The battalion has been in more than 100 firefights since it arrived, and the proximity of many of them to FOB Jackson illustrates just how much freedom of movement the Taliban still have in Sangin.
The Marines have worked to improve security by significantly increasing the number of patrols compared to the British and by pushing into areas north and south of the district center where British forces rarely went. That process started when the 3rd Battalion, 7th Marine Regiment deployed to Sangin in July and fought beside the British until the current battalion took over.
Even though the battalion has slightly fewer forces than the 1,200-strong British Royal Marines unit that was here previously, commanders say they have been able to step up the number of patrols because they have far fewer Marines stuck guarding bases.
But some analysts have speculated that the coalition would need at least one more battalion in Sangin if it wanted to clear and hold the whole district. Some Marines said privately that more forces would be necessary, especially in the Upper Sangin Valley where coalition troops had not gone in years until recently.
The battalion's current area of operations is roughly 25 square miles and contains a mix of lush fields around the Helmand River, dense clusters of tall mud compounds and patches of barren desert. It contains some 25,000 people, but many of Sangin's residents live outside the area in which the Marines operate. The entire district is roughly 200 square miles, and district governor Mohammad Sharif said it houses about 100,000 people.
The battalion has gotten help from a pair of Marine reconnaissance companies operating in the Upper Sangin Valley and a company of Georgian soldiers based on the West side of the Helmand River. There are also several hundred Afghan army and police in Sangin, but they are fairly dependent on the Marines for supplies and logistics.
In addition to conducting more patrols, the Marine battalion has adopted a more aggressive posture than the British, according to Afghan army Lt. Mohammad Anwar, who has been in Sangin for two years.
"When the Taliban attacked, the British would retreat into their base, but the Marines fight back," said Anwar.
Insurgents fired at members of 1st Platoon, India Company, during a recent patrol near the battalion's main base, and the Marines responded with a deafening roar of machine gun fire, grenades, and mortars. They also tried to launch a rocket that turned out to be a dud.
"The Taliban like to engage us, and I like to make it an unfair fight," said India Company's commander, Capt. Chris Esrey of Havelock, North Carolina. "If you shoot at us with 7.62 (millimeter bullets), I'm going to respond with rockets."
But Taliban attacks have taken their toll. Thirteen Marines have been killed and 49 wounded since the battalion arrived. Most of those casualties have come from IEDs, or improvised explosive devices, that the insurgents hide in compounds, along trails and in dense fields where they are hard to detect.
The Marines believe their operations are beginning to improve security, and they say tips have started to trickle in from locals on the location of IEDs.
But some villagers have complained about the increased number of patrols since the Taliban often plant IEDs along the routes the Marines travel.
"You should open more bases and patrol less because when you patrol on foot, the Taliban bury IEDs that threaten children and other civilians," local landowner Tuma Khan told a Marine during a patrol.

Formula 1 Betting
The Formula One season begins each March with the Australian Grand Prix and concludes with the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix in late November. The races, known as Grand Prix's are hosted in different countries around the world.
The F1 betting season is shorter than the NASCAR season as there are a total of 19 races. Sebastian Vettel has dominated Formula One in recent seasons, winning the driver's title from 2010-2013.
Formula One Betting Options
There are a number of different options when it comes to betting Formula One at Diamond sportsbook. You can bet the F1 futures where you are picking a driver to win the race or you can bet the driver vs. driver matchups. You can also bet on other options in Formula One such as a driver to finish in the top three, first constructor to retire, driver to have the fastest lap, win the pole, etc.
When it comes to betting the race the odds will be on the board until qualifying begins and then they will be reposted once qualifying has been completed. It is not uncommon to see the favorite to win the race with odds of 2-1 or less. The driver vs. driver matchups are just like what you would see in other sports like baseball, golf, soccer, etc., where there is a favorite and an underdog.

DURHAM -- Durham police are asking the community for help to avoid setting another record for impaired driving arrests during this year's Festive RIDE program.
Since the program was launched on Nov. 15, police have charged 72 people with drinking and driving offences, up from 66 at this point in the program last year. The 2011 program set a record with 155 charges laid.
"We're very disturbed about this trend and had to bring it to the community's attention. We're trending to break this record and that's a record we do not want to break," said Paul Martin, deputy chief of Durham Police, who joined forces with Staff Sergeant Mark Morissette, who is in charge of the RIDE program, on Dec. 3 at Regional headquarters for what he called a "halftime huddle."
"I think it's important to take a bit of a time-out from this and talk to the community directly," Deputy Chief Martin explained.
"Let's think about what we're doing. If you're going out to enjoy holiday parties and activities, take a moment to think about how you're getting home."
In addition to arrests made during RIDE, police also responded to five alcohol-related collisions in a seven-day span. In one incident, officers had to stop a man driving the wrong way on the eastbound lanes of Hwy. 401 in Oshawa.
"This is not a victimless crime," said Staff Sergeant Morissette, noting both police officers and residents have put themselves at considerable risk to help impaired drivers involved in collisions, including pulling a man from a burning vehicle after he drove off the road near Taunton Road and Holt Road in Clarington on Nov. 29.
"My officers are notifying families and notifying establishments when someone's been involved in a collision," he continued. "The ripple effect of these incidents is incredible. Our message is just to stop, think and not do it. Every one of those 72 people had other options and chose not to take them."
Deputy Chief Martin said police will be reviewing their strategies for dealing with impaired driving given the increase, including launching a new direct education campaign with pamphlets at local liquor establishments in the Whitby area.
When asked what the increase might be attributed to the deputy chief had no answers, noting the number of stops made during ride to this point is comparable to last year, and that no specific demographic is more at risk.
"There's no particular trend; about 75 per cent of those stopped are men but aside from that there's no specific trend in age or anything to say where we need to target," he explained.
For now, police are asking the entire community to help reduce impaired driving.
"We consider this a serious criminal offence," Staff Sergeant Morissette said.
"We want anyone who witnesses or suspects impaired driving to call 911 and we will handle it. This is a 911 offence."

My 6 year-old is asking for a TV in his room, and I'm pretty firm in the "heck NO" corner.

Tulip, that's how it is in our house. We only have the one digital cable box where our main TV area is, too. DS doesn't even have a cable hook-up in his room anymore. When we rearranged the living room, we moved our TV to another wall and decided to move his cable hook-up to the living room (easier than running a new wire).

today in http://www.bostonsportsmedia.com/
BSMW is always a good read. He nails it where the Boston sports media is concerned. And the thin skinned commentary is hilarious. I've tangled with Shaughnessy and his handlers on occasion so I can really appreciate that. I have long believed some sort of pathological jealousy of or disdain for athletes or those closely associated with their respective franchises - and the fans who support and follow them - fuels much of what ails the Boston sports media's reporting. Many see themselves as Will did - the smarter guy relegated writing about an industry he could run far better than any local incumbant who does (successfully or unsuccessfully). Others, particularly the limited to on air types, I believe fall into that category Bob Kraft mentioned yesterday - those who dreamed of being a professional athlete but weren't good enough. And among the worst are the kind Flutie decided to pass on joining by going to the college media ranks - the former player who all too willingly turns nasty on his former peers to facilitate making a few more bucks post career.
And then there is the whole WEEI/FSNE and sports talk radio as WWF smashmouth entertainment model created by a short fat guy who used to be the lesser known voice of the Celtics until he couldn't get along with the actually legendary one. Although at least in Glenn's defense he will always admit when pushed that it's all about the ratings and the money where he's concerned. It's all his thin skinned co-hosts and cohorts and peers who won't who are the really scummy closet frauds in the final analysis. Along with all the idiot callers and those listeners who don't understand that they are just being used and manipulated by people who have absolutely no respect for their opinion beyond the value them expressing it adds to their paycheck.
A great read....and I have to agree with him about BEING a sportswriter. But so so funny about Shaunessey and others AT the Globe!! THAT is so so true!! BUT as that is true, Ryan's characterization is just as much. (I met Ryan outside the Garden on a side street on the night of the Russell tribute..) A 20 minute passionate conversation!!! And all the talk of EEI???? SO SO true!!! A great read!!

This is a playoff team that is losing to the worst in the NFL..and doing it on a regular basis.
How do you beat Baltimore, Washington, and Cincinati...but can barely get over the Cheifs..and lose to 4 of the worst teams in the league? If you told me that we'd have 4 losses to these teams when the season started...I'd tell you our record must be near the league bottom. The fact that we have beat decent teams only proves my point... this teams leadership has failed miserable. This doesn't happen in pittsburgh...but it is this season.. Tomlin shoulders 90% of the blame for this season. He should get one more year to right the ship...if he doesn't...find a coach who can. We don't need a HOF coach... all we need is someone who doesn't lose games for us.
This team lacks leadership.
Its hard to argue.....I like Tomlin and lets face it : he's going to be here for a LOOOOOOONG time.
The issue i see is that they come out on the field on Sundays and look at them. Even in pre-game warmups, they look slow, non-chalant, kinda just hanging around.....if you look closely, it wouldnt' surprise me to see a few "yawns" as if they just got out of bed.
In contrast i've taken notice of the other side (even the Browns for gods sakes) in many games. And again, even in the pre-games. Chest-bumpin', yelling, high-fiving, fist-pumpin. Is there a reason we're not seeing that on
side?? Look no further than the Patriots last night................

It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Phebe by comparing test results with other carriers of her mitochondrial DNA. However, there are no known mtDNA test-takers in her direct maternal line. It is likely that these autosomal DNA test-takers will share significant DNA:

I had been pretty satisfied with the customer service and quality of work I received at Karma. But the ULTIMATE test of a good company is how they deal with mistakes when they mess up. Karma performed an "acid wash" hard water removal on my car and damaged ALL OF THE GLASS on my SUV -- AND my driver side rearview mirror -- and they are not taking ANY responsibility for it.
After driving away from Karma a few months back, I thought the guys has missed a section on the upper corners of my windshield. I drove back and asked them to wipe it off. The manager said that I had "hard water" deposits (probably from parking in range of a sprinkler system at my old apartment). He suggested the next time I come to request a "hard water removal" process and that spots would go away.
The next time I came in, I requested the treatment. But it was pretty expensive. Since I was only really concerned with removing the spots on the top corners of my WINDSHIELD, I asked if they could limit the treatment to just the glass. They agreed and prorated the fee.
That day I left with pretty great results. The manager suggested I come back AGAIN and have the BODY and CHROME treated the same way. So I did: I returned a few weeks ago, told them I had the glass done last time and asked that they only treat the body and chrome (so I didn't have to pay the high cost of the ENTIRE treatment). The manager agreed and, again, charged me a prorated cost to do just the BODY of my car -- NOT the glass.
My car is finished 60 minutes later. I pay and leave. At first glance the car looked good. However while driving away I noticed that my windshield had this hazy, almost pixelated effect all over it. I also noticed my driver's side mirror had this "frosted" coat over it. Assuming someone used the wrong towel to dry the inside of my windshield, I drove back to have them clean off the residue. The manager said he had noticed the problem and brought a couple guys over with scrubber pads to scrape off the junk off my mirror -- but that made it look TWICE as horrible! Their scrubbing efforts did NOTHING to correct the damage to my windshield and windows.
The manager (Marvin) said he thinks acid must have got BEHIND the mirror as he was spraying it and it "ate off" the back coating? He said he'd ALSO seen the SAME effect on windshield glass at least one other time at Karma, but that customer may have had "defective glass" and the dealer replaced it for that person?
After going back and forth for 3 weeks with their owner, Freddie Elias, Karma's position is (and I'm quoting his TEXT message to me): "We feel we have not caused the damages to your vehicle as this is the same product we have used in thousands of cars… We feel this is a defect in the glass not a cause of the product. Feel free to provide your [insurance] agent with my name and number should they need to communicate with me." TRANSLATION: Sorry, buddy, we're not claiming ANY responsibility -- you're on your own to work this out! A defective rear-view mirror AND defective windshield? What?? Really?? Come on…
Oh! But then, as consolation, they offered me a few free detail sessions for my inconvenience??
The PRODUCT may be the one they always use but someone must have done something wrong WITH the product because I LEFT Karma with a damaged vehicle. I know the treatment POTENTIALLY works -- it worked well for me the first time -- but SOMETHING went wrong THIS time and Karma needs to do the right thing to correct it. Heck, they weren't even supposed to TOUCH my glass this time. Their denial of responsibility is illogical. It's like telling a customer "We know you didn't ASK for a wax job, but we threw one in for free. Oh, and we DAMAGED your car while we gave you the free wax, but we waxed your car like we waxed all other cars. So we're not claiming ANY responsibility for the damage we did to your car during the free treatment that we wen't supposed to do anyway…" -- ??
Per their request, I have had the glass inspected at both the dealer AND at an independent windshield repair and neither say there are any known issues with my model's windshield -- my glass is not "defective." They say chances are the OTHER unfortunate soul who suffered the same malpractice at Karma was probably still under factory warranty and that the dealership replaced his glass as a courtesy. My SUV is FOUR years old now so I don't have that option. Instead, I now have to go through all the hassle of settling this with a claim against Karma.
If I can save ONE soul the hassle of going through this with Karma, then writing this review is worth it. Karma may do this treatment on "thousands of cars" but their fail rate is apparently a damaged vehicle in 1 out of 1,000. Don't let the next damaged vehicle be yours.

Posts tagged: gubernatorial race
Washington's gubernatorial race was tied in a recent poll of state voters, while ballot measures for same-sex marriage, legalized marijuana and charter schools were all leading.
The poll of 500 voters last week as the ballots hit the mail had Republican Rob McKenna and Democrat Jay Inslee each with support from 46 percent of those surveyed. Inslee is ahead in King County and North Puget Sound, while McKenna leads in other parts of Western Washington and in Eastern Washington. McKenna's ahead among men, Inslee among women.
In other words, it looks like your typical tight Democrat vs. Republican race.
The pollsters didn't ask a "horse race" question on the U.S. Senate race, but it did ask about voters opinions of incumbent Maria Cantwell and challenger Mike Baumgartner. Good news for Cantwell: While Congress has pretty low approval ratings in the country, 53 percent said they had a favorable opinion of her, slightly better than seatmate Patty Murray's rating of 51 percent.
Bad news for Baumgartner: Relatively few voters surveyed — 22 percent statewide and 29 percent in Eastern Washington — had any opinion , good or bad, of the Spokane legislator. The rest were either unfamiliar with the name or had no opinion of him.
Initiative 502, which would legalize marijuana for adult use, Referendum 74, which would legalize same-sex marriage, and Initiative 1240, which would allow public charter schools, all had support from more than half of those surveyed. But with the poll's margin of error of 4.4 percent, all could be close to pulling down a majority in the election.
Democrat Jay Inslee's gubernatorial campaign is all aglow today with President Barack Obama's endorsement of their guy.
Wait a minute. Hasn't Obama been a fan of Inslee's all along. Didn't he wish him well last spring in marking Inslee's departure from Congress to campaign full-time? Didn't he say nice things about Inslee during his May stop at the Paramount Theater in Seattle?
Yes, but -
"He's been supportive but hasn't officially endorsed," Inslee campaign spokeswoman Jaime Smith said. "Obama is a very popular figure here, so obviously we're excited to use this."
The most recent statewide poll we could find, which was the SurveyUSA poll from the beginning of August, had Obama over Romney 54 percent to 37 percent.
In ticket-splitting Washington, some of that popularity might not carry down the ballot into the governor's race. In 2008, Obama beat John McCain by 17 points, but incumbent Gov. Chris Gregoire beat Republican Dino Rossi by 6.5 points. In 2004, John Kerry beat President George W. Bush by 7 points, but Gregoire beat Rossi by .0047 points, after two recounts and a court case.
Turning on the television Monday evening created a sudden moment of panic. Had I slept, Rip Van Winkle-like for months and awoke in January 2012?
Seven Republican presidential candidates were on a stage in New Hampshire, taking questions from news media types and citizens, with panels of pundits dissecting their every utterance. Surely, the presidential election wasn't some 17 months away.
But it is, and a GOP presidential debate was on. This was actually the second GOP presidential debate, although the first one had fewer debaters and got less attention because, presumably, May 2011 was way too early for serious candidates to have announced their campaigns.
This is not to complain about the ever-lengthening timeline for the presidential race, which other people do better, elsewhere. A clip from the Daily Show, which offers some of the best political satire around, can be found inside the blog, and probably says it best.
Rather, it's to warn of an insidious corollary…

Albany Molecular Shares Fall On 1Q Profit, Outlook
The company said a slowdown in research and development spending is cutting into customer demand, and that it could remain depressed for small biotechnology companies and specialty pharmaceutical companies.
Looking ahead, the company cut its full-year profit forecast to between 22 cents and 28 cents per share, from prior guidance of 40 cents to 46 cents per share. The company also trimmed its contract revenue outlook to between $37 million and $41 million, from a prior range of $40 million to $42 million.
"Our revised financial guidance reflects a slowed spending by our small biotech and specialty pharmaceutical customers, as well as the impact of the delay of several projects previously forecast for our large scale component during the remaining quarters," said Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Thomas D'Ambra, in a statement.
He said the company initiated a "cost containment" program to offset the drop in revenue.For the second quarter, the company projected a loss of 1 cent per share to a profit of 2 cents per share.

also has anyone made any big orders on netbooks yet. and which ones have you opted for. and why? ;)
I can answer question 1. The Samsung NC10 has been getting reports (by users) of around 6.5 hours with the screen dimmed slighty.
As above, the NC10 seems to be the best of the crop at the minute. Got my GF one a couple of weeks back and she says it seems to just keep on going and going :D
Like the look of it too, might get myself one!
+1 for these.... Just ordered another 2 today, to go with the other 15.
Good battery life, good wireless signal, free 802.1x client that works great.
I have a Samsung NC10 here and its great, I get hours and hours out of it, I would easily say 6, depends on what you are doing with it.
Yep, I bought an NC10 at the weekend, been playing with it for several hours so far, and still on 65-odd% of the first battery charge. Quite phenomenal really.
At 100% battery with the screen on minimum brightness, just after boot my battery gauge was offering over 7 hours of life.
They seem more like an expensive ultra-portable too - streets ahead of the Eee PC 700 it's replacing.
Must admit I do like the look of the Samsung myself, hmmmmmm temptations looming!
NC10 all the way
.... Misread title! ....
Toshiba L300D and L300 have poor battery life, we had to order the extended batterys at a further cost.
Each laptops lasts on average 2 - 3 hours depending on strain.
i received my NC10 today and its been at home since 5pm (now 11pm) and its still going strong.
I've mainly been downloading and installing things like avg, skype, Office , Openoffice and browsing the net and its still going strong - battery indicator is still saying 1.5 hours left :)
This is finally the machine I've been waiting for all my life :)
If it wasn't for the b*&^*y adverts :p it on edugeek the screen size would be perfect for browsing :)
I'm going to lend it out to my pupils during lessons and see if they notice any difference between it and a normal 1.8 celeron machine :)
What a fantastic piece of kit - even handles my short stubby fingers fine on the keyboard :)
And the liitle scroll thinghy on the pad is briilliiant - who needs a mouse!
Did I say it is good :)
Sounds good Si, I was tempted to order one this month as well, but seen as there has been a pay messup by the LEA for me, i cannot afford one this month :(
it's the proverbial canine spherical objects :)
It is without doubt the best value/performance/usuabiliy computer I've ever used since a BBC Micro :)
Every geek should have one - just need the quick release shoulder pack for it :)
I might be here till the battery dies :)
