Wailea , Hawaii
Tel: 808 879 2999
Concierge.com's insider take:
Even if you're not staying at the Four Seasons, it's de rigueur to visit the hotel's Hawaiian version of Spago, decorated with bright wallpaper murals of pink and orange sea anemones. The hotel does have a newer restaurant, Duo, which serves fantastic steaks, but Spago has a better location and view for sunset drinks. The food is Californian (with a Pacific Rim emphasis on fresh fish and local produce) and pricey, and there's a lot of rubbernecking going on—a hazard of places where the beautiful people congregate. Try to get a table out on the deck for sunset. After dinner, take a stroll on the beach; you can walk the paved beachfront path all the way to the Grand Wailea Resort next door and back.
Open daily 5:30 to 9:30 pm.

As a physician, I've been exposed to a variety of wellness models, most of them pie charts and pyramids detailing what it takes to be optimally healthy – a nutritious diet, an exercise regimen, enough sleep – you catch my drift.
But something about these wellness models always left me feeling like something was missing. First, it was the format. A pie chart implies that you can take out a piece of the pie and still keep the rest of the uneaten pie intact. The same is true for a pyramid – if you take a strip out of a pyramid – you wind up with a shorter, but still stable pyramid.
Some wellness models are more holistic than others, accounting not only for conventionally "healthy" behaviors, but also for other facets of what makes a good life – social network, professional life, etc. Even still, I never found one that spoke to my soul. None of them ever felt expansive enough, comprehensive enough, or acknowledging of the interdependency of all the facets of what makes us whole and how these life factors affect the body.
From the day I launched OwningPink.com on April 26, 2009, my intention was to create a blog that explored all the facets of what I believed led to a healthy life – relationships, work/life purpose, creativity, spirituality, sexuality, your environment, finances, mental health, and physical health. My hypothesis was that each of these facets had to be in balance, not only with each other, but with the truth of who you are, the part of you I call your "Inner Pilot Light." In other words, it's not enough to be in a relationship if your relationship is out of alignment with your truth. It's not enough to be having sex if you're selling out your authentic sexual desires. It's not enough to go to church if you really find communion with Source in nature instead. For years, my blog focused on helping people understand health in this kind of expanded way, but it didn't fit neatly into an elevator speech or any wellness model I'd ever stumbled across.

The Exomiser is a Java program that functionally annotates variants from whole-exome sequencing data starting from a VCF file (version 4). The functional annotation code is based on Annovar and uses UCSC KnownGene transcript definitions and hg19 genomic coordinates.
Variants are prioritised according to user-defined criteria on variant frequency, pathogenicity, quality, inheritance pattern, and model organism phenotype data. Predicted pathogenicity data was extracted from the dbNSFP resource. Cross-species phenotype comparisons come from our PhenoDigm tool powered by the OWLSim algorithm.
The Exomiser was developed by the Computational Biology and Bioinformatics group at the Institute for Medical Genetics and Human Genetics of the Charité - Universitätsmedizin Berlin, the Mouse Informatics Group at the Sanger Institute and the Lewis group at the Lawrence Berkeley National Labs.

View posts by: Author | Title
The business model is dictated through an observation of what potentially might work, as this has not been validated in actual experience. One of the concerns that many of the arts organizations had was that in a limited world of time and money, both the MetroCode and the PocketCINE did not stand out in terms of what would be "high value at low cost" to the participating arts organizations. They perceived it as an initiative that would take time away from other resources and could potentially cost more than they had.
One of our issues was that the budget that we had for each project was relatively modest, which should have allowed for several projects to occur, but in fact the concern from the organizations often was that the money was not enough. It is a truth that in many arts organizations trying to help a small project is a lot harder than doing a large project, just simply because the time and resources are almost the same for a small or large project in terms of the financial reporting that are required. However, that being said, the business model really needs to be based around a service that is easily accessible and as much self-service as possible. I personally felt that a MetroCode model where somebody could upload and create their own MetroCodes using a simple web based interface, uploading their audio or video files in a fast and convenient way, could be an excellent model.
Here are some personal reflections on the cultural outreach.
• The interesting aspect of these projects was in the relationship between the arts communities and the technology providers. Although arts organizations are fundamentally innovators, technology is not always seen as an easy or simply adaptable factor. Many of the arts organizations that we spoke to, after an initial enthusiastic response, fully considered the impact and staff resources that running with a project such as MetroCode or PocketCINE would entail and started to get cold feet. Many of the organizations we spoke to evidenced some concern that they didn't have any "technical" staff on board that could successfully manage such a project. Even though the reality was, was that the technology would be handled by the network provider, there was concern from the arts organizations that the technology would be too difficulty or too troublesome to manage. • Another aspect was in terms of the technology itself. We did not have a clear enough value statement that the arts organizations could quickly understand and apply. Even though we were fairly confident that the values and benefits were spelled out, we should do a better job at explaining the benefits and explaining the overall impact. There were certain unknowns, for example, how long would it take to record the different message for any particular MetroCode project? This was an unknown that was impossible to quantify before going ahead, and even though we were able to do some guesstimating, it did concern some arts organizations. • Timing is everything and especially with arts organizations that have a busy schedule of production. If we were going to engage the arts organizations, we should start at least a year ahead of time and to allow for the full integration of potential technology within the production. The most important aspect of this would be also to prepare and lessen the opportunity for failure in terms of giving the arts organizations enough time to work this into their marketing budget in terms of time and resources. • Another issue that occurred was the relative sophistication of some of the arts organizations in dealing with their marketing collateral material. Many of the organizations received compensation for funders, sponsors and other partners in return for the display of their logo on other promotional materials. This was a problem in that there was some expectation from our network partners that they would get recognition on different pieces of marketing collateral that the arts organizations were considering. While this was not a huge issue, it did result in some confusion from the two parties in reaching a negotiated settlement because of differing expectations about what the value of this project was. We could have done better to assign a dollar value to the project and propose that as an aspect that the arts organization would be receiving in terms of benefit. • The technology itself suffers in terms of how it can be presented. There were implementation issues that arose and some of the bugs, quirks, different ways of doing things, were not immediately clear. One of the problems in working with new technology is there are many ways to implement and to present this to different arts organizations. Arts organizations would probably be better served by having a fixed product offering that would simply just provide a very straightforward value proposition that is clearly explained. • In terms of actual numbers and promotions, the numbers were not high in terms of the actual people that clicked through and went through to the different aspects of MetroCode and PocketCINE; however, we understand that this is an emerging market and to understand the use of these aspects should be followed up on with some further research. It would be interesting for example to see if there were ways to contact people that use the system and to enquire about the relative success or interest level that was sustained for the different projects.
The Mobile Muse Project was designed to be an innovative approach to providing cell phone innovation to different target audiences. The project that I worked on was the Cultural Outreach, where we looked at involving cultural groups with using innovating cell phone technology. The inspiration for the project was to engage community culture groups in working with innovative technology to further their own strategic and tactical goals in delivering their services, productions, and other artistic practices to the general community at large. The different aspects of the project involved connecting and engaging community cultural groups, understanding their requirements and then providing a potential project partner from Mobile Muse' different network partners and see through the project through implementation to delivery.
As I mentioned in my last post, MUSE II was designed with cultural engagement at the core of our whole plan. The biggest challenge in doing leading edge research within our mandate was finding the right cultural groups who had existing content and audiences, as well as the interest and capacity to experiment with new mobile technologies, and then connecting them with leaders in mobile technology innovation who could pull projects together. With an end goal of inspiring innovative project ideas that are both innovative and culturally relevant, we needed these two groups to collaborate. As folks from these sectors don't tend to naturally collaborate, some MUSE-Matchmaking was in order.
Mobile MUSE has always been about the intersection of mobile innovation and culture. While our mission has been to build a vibrant mobile content industry in BC, our funding priorities have always been to do so with a strong focus on ensuring cultural organizations benefit from this economic growth. This means helping create true collaborations between technology providers and cultural organizations. Not an easy task when you are dealing with bleeding edge research!
I've been involved with MUSE since its inception, and was asked to become part of the leadership team for two reasons: to ensure the prototype ideas MUSE developed had a strong grounding in the needs of the cultural community, and to use my background and network in the community to successfully plug community organizations into MUSE.
March madness continues at metroCode..this week we have also launched a cell phone prototype on the UBC campus via a partnership with Mobile MUSE, Industry Canada, and UBC's Design Centre for Sustainability, publishers of the Green Guide (www.greatervancouvergreenguide.ca).
As John and I finish off our Mobile Muse blogging (for the time being, anyway) the time is right to look towards the future. Without claiming to be experts in this industry, we will try to use our imagination and passion for all things mobile to try to guess the things to come. Here are my top five predictions for Canadian wireless industry for the next five years:

Find Me On:
Wow, this was a hefty read…and well written. You can't write a Rush article and by skimpy about it. As many people know, you either love this band or you hate them. There is no in between. As someone who owns their entire discography, I will actually weigh in on this one:
1. Moving Pictures
2. 2112
3. A Farewell to Kings
4. Hemispheres
5. Permanent Waves
6. Grace Under Pressure
7. Fly By Night
8. Caress of Steel (criminally underrated and WAY too low in the list)
9. Clockwork Angels
10. Signals
11. Snakes and Arrows
12. Rush
13. Counterparts
14. Vapor Trails
15. Power Windows
16. Presto
17. Roll the Bones
18. Test For Echo
19. Hold Your Fire (this album is seriously boring and no matter how many tries I give it, I REALLY don't like it)
I'm indifferent about Feedback, but it's a pretty decent album. I always credit the Smashing Pumpkins with inspiring me to pick up a guitar and Rush with actually teaching me how to play it. Their songs are so damn fun to play and I become a tad proud of myself every time I can play one without a mistake.
I'm excited for this. More than any other SP album, this one shows Billy's talent as a composer. The songs are beautiful. I can understand the initial backlash it had, though…alt rock may have been dead and the band wasn't quiet about moving in another direction but "Eye" and then "Ava Adore" as the first single didn't really capture what the album was about.
I'm even more excited that now Billy can finally start putting together Machina the way it was intended.
Geez, can't anyone get the lyrics to "Give It Away" right?
Freaking finally. Ritual Union is probably in my list of top 5 growers. I thought I didn't like it at all but then suddenly found myself playing it over and over. I'm not sure if it 's better than their s/t but it's way better than Machine Dreams.
Either/Or has to be #1 for me. I think the other albums can fall where they may depending on how and when they were approached (they are all good), but I always felt Either/Or was his ultimate statement as an artist. There is a reason the next album was so extravagant. Elliott Smith was done with the introspective stripped down sound because he perfected it and was ready to explore more. His introspective stripped down sound was also his best work…people get into Elliott Smith because his music is so personal and nothing was as personal and accomplished as Either/Or.
It's not just Spotify that is causing this…it's the sheer volume of music that is pushed out today. Any Joe Shmoe can record an album in his room with the right equipment, so there is a lot more to sift through. While that means the top 40 crowd will more easily be lead to what the labels want them to enjoy, it also means that a music lover like myself and many who post here will dive into something with even more enthusiasm. Spotify gives me easy access to the overload of music, so if I don't like something I didn't just waste money or even my time downloading it. Just the time it took to listen to it. That also means when I find something I enjoy, I find that I enjoy it that much more because 1) I really had to search for that great album and 2) I got to sift through so much crappy music that I understand how hard it must be to make something enjoyable. So I may not be enjoying music the same way I did in high school, but I have evolved with the times and appreciate the new way to listen it.
Yeah, that statement is going to have to be about 2000 words longer to compete with the Moz.
Man, I kind of thought everyone was being sarcastic about Yeezus. Then it goes and makes #1 on the site's list and #2 here. I guess everyone actually likes it? I still don't see it. Run the Jewels was much better. Hell, I even enjoyed Trap Lord more.
Glad to see my pick made #5, though. A lot of my other favorites made it up there as well.
I've got a lot in this list to listen to, but I thought Cthonic's new album Bu Tik was really damn good…their best since Seediq Bale. Not sure how much love these guys really get in the metal community, but I really love em.
This is a reunion I would pay good money to see. Foxtrot, Selling England By the Pound, and The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway were on heavy rotation during my prog phase and still get regular plays to this day. I'll even give Peter Gabriel a pass on the costumes.

[Produced by M16; co-produced by Jay-R]
[Intro: Lil Wayne and Tity Boi]
(Yeah!) Weed and syrup 'til I die

Cause you ain't! (Tell 'em, shawty!)
So get high (Tell 'em, Weezy!) or get low
[Hook: Lil Wayne]
If I don't do nothing I'mma ball

Said go and get your money little duffle bag boy get money
And I ain't ever ran from a nigga and I
Damn sho ain't bout to pick today to start runnin
Look honey I ain't never ran from a nigga and I
Damn sho ain't bout to pick today to start runnin get money
[Verse 1: Tity Boi]

Toilet paper on the side for example homie

I know you niggas ain't heard no shit like this
And while you wishing on that fallin' star
I'm in a foreign car smoking out with the doors ajar
Suede sun roof hanging out the big top

Next time you're yapping make sure it be about big money talk
Let that lil' money walk call me what you want but don't call me for front
Southside I got what you want come holla at me

The Resource Center has all the info you'll need From content to user feedback, the resource center has the information you need for every level of the entrepreneurial process.
The co-founders of a public relations and events-management firm discuss the role of negotiation in enabling them to operate as equal partners. Balance, trust and skills are necessary for the give-and-take involved, and the authors provide suggestions for achieving that.
Creativity is all about finding innovative solutions to difficult problems, says an engineer who did just that to build what is now the country's fifth largest craft brewery. The article looks at how that principle applies to manufacturing, management, marketing and product development.
Creativity is the emotional lifeblood of entrepreneurship. Without creativity, thousands of companies would not have been launched. However, it is an element of entrepreneurial life that isn't easy to safeguard under the law.
Marketing creatively will enable entrepreneurial retailers to prosper in difficult or changing times, writes the founder of a venerable direct marketing company. The author offers examples of creative marketing from the company's half century in business.
Boards of advisors are best for helping entrepreneurs build companies in the formative stage, whereas boards of directors lend a hand during times of crisis or change, writes a serial entrepreneur. The author provides a blueprint for dealing with both entities.
A technology entrepreneur loses his shirt on his first company, regroups and starts a second, and lives to advise others about how to get it right.
The author, Jana Matthews, asserts that without policies and procedures, business growth becomes much harder to achieve. If you want to grow, you (the entrepreneur) have to stop doing everything yourself.
The process of going through a legal audit isn't easy, but the risks associated with avoiding the issue are too high for any company to bear. Doing so is not only necessary, but beneficial.
Entrepreneurial companies should consider complying with an internationally recognized set of quality standards known as ISO as a way to mitigate risk, benchmark progress, and attract customers to an untested enterprise, say the founders of a consultancy.
Entrepreneurs needing to motivate high-performance people must reward them for creating long-term value and satisfying customers, rather than for maximizing annual profit, argues a compensation consultant, who devised an alternative to the bonus-based performance award.

"WoW Insider is Azeroth's largest blog and information site, covering the latest news, analysis and opinion from all around the World of Warcraft."
If WoW Insider isn't a news publication, then what is it?
And yes the comments are for commenting on the article. Wouldn't your time maybe be better spent actually commenting on the substance of the article instead of complaining about its existence?
I see the post we are commenting about to be more of an opinion piece, rather than a straight-laced serious article. I again want to say that you should feel free to comment on the behavior of the person who defaced the sign, but I just don't understand the attacks on Elizabeth.

About the Team Name
Sea turtles are the true ancients of the world, swimming in our oceans for over 200 million years. They grow up to 45 inches and weigh between 200-400 pounds. These graceful saltwater reptiles with streamlined bodies and flipper-like limbs are able to swim long distances (up to 800 miles within the Hawaiian Islands) in a relatively short time.
You'll find them swimming to the ocean surface to breathe every few minutes and have resting periods in a cave or under a ledge for as long as 24 hours without breathing. Between 100 and 350 females return to land each year to lay about 100 eggs at night, most likely on the same beach on which they were born. After about two months of incubation, the hatchlings break out of the nest, but only a few make it past the birds and crabs on the beach and avoid the big fish in the sea to become adult turtles.
It is believed that green sea turtles can live up to 80 years of age. According to Chinese mythology, they represent wisdom.

Every year people make all sorts of wacky resolutions about what they plan on doing or accomplishing the following year. Now, it could be losing more weight than the total amount of weight on their bodies; it could be rowing a 500-foot yacht to the moon; or giving up chocolate candy bars without nuts so that he or she can move onto eating chocolate candy bars with nuts; or possibly desiring to climb up the fast moving rapids of the Niagara Falls. And there are plenty of other off-the-wall new year's resolutions out there that would require a few knocks from that good ol' jack-in-the-box-glove.
Now, with that said, I'd like to know if there is anyone out there who wasn't foolish enough to make some otherworldy resolution for 2013; or at least, nothing ridiculous or unaccomplishable?

A well known reality among government contractors is the anticipated decline in government spending during the next few years with the goal of shrinking the federal deficit, which is expected to exceed $1 trillion for a fourth straight year.
According to a recent MarketWatch article, a Bureau of Economic Analysis indicated that "government consumption expenditures and investments (goods and services the government buys directly) have fallen at a 2.8% annual rate since the stimulus began to wane in late 2010."
Plus, things could get a whole lot worse for government contractors, especially if Congress does not step in and block the required $400 billion in Department of Defense budget cuts that will further decrease government spending.
In response to these realities, government contractors and technology providers have shifted to focus on key areas of need where the government is inclined to invest resources, such as cloud computing and information security. They are also wringing out profits from their existing portfolio of contracts by identifying ways to reduce costs.
One area of cost reduction for government contractors involves the processing of credit card transactions. By participating in the GSA SmartPay charge card, contractors are able to substantially reduce costs of processing fees with the collection and passing of Level-3 data on transactions.
Margin improvement can increase as much as 1.5 percent (reduce your current costs by as much as 40-50%), as a result of special rates offered by Visa and MasterCard for processing GSA SmartPay card transactions. Moreover, contractors achieving Level-3 compliance reduce their exposure to fraud.
Getting Level-3 compliant is a difficult and cumbersome process, right? Well…wrong. In fact, we have outlined an easy to follow process and the resulting benefits in this free white paper.

"Absolutely amazing. What a find. I had pork cut up at the butcher, and then seasoned the pieces before putting through the meat grinder (Kitchen Aid). I used it for filling in an omelet, and am picking up some casings to stuff. Unbelievable!"
"Unbelievable! I served this today for a party, and everyone had seconds. I served an antipasto just before it, which really brought out the flavors. In the interest of time, I used jarred sauce, but otherwise changed nothing. This was HUGE hit. I had to send some home with the guests, leaving me with very few leftovers. Thank you for this recipe."
"This looked like a basic recipe. Never having made chowder, I looked through all the recipes (ok not ALL, but some!) and made a few adjustments to this recipe. I fried salt pork, removed the pork, and sauteed the onions and celery in the drippings. I also added frozen corn, and just a touch of sweetener. It came out just how I wanted it. Thank..."
"I could not get over how the mixture of the spices seeped into the chicken. By far, this is the best recipe for cooking a whole chicken in the crock pot. Fantastic!"

Christmas is coming and it's the right time to start decorating your house, as well as your Mac.
Maybe there are already a lot of free Christmas resources around the net, but I'd like to make one special list for Mac.
Though this is not a huge list, but I've tried to cover the most interesting things on your Mac, such as screen saver, wallpaper, and many other fun stuffs. So, what are you waiting for now?
Christmas Screen Savers
Nothing represents Christmas as much as falling snowflakes and flying Santas. Here are collection of screen savers that picture Christmas on your Mac.
Scattered Flurries
Perhaps you've long bored with the moving Flurry of Colors on your Mac, especially during Christmas day. You can add more flurries of snow to your Mac Screen Saver.
If you will never have a great Christmas without falling flakes of snow, you can download this snowfall quartz composer screen saver to simulates the ice storm!
Following the popularity of LotsaWater which pours the water into your Desktop, I believe the performance of LotsaSnow won't disappoint you during Christmas time. Basically, it throws flakes of snow right into your Desktop, but not in reality.
A Very 3D Christmas Screen Saver
Regardless of its nearly ten dollars price tag, this screen saver and its 3D display worth our mention, to migrate the Santa into the world of inside our Mac; Without neglecting the fact that you can also put Santa in the city.
Christmas Wallpapers
Though we have showcased some beauty of the wallpaper world, we realized that we've put less attention on wallpapers for Christmas.
Here are several great wallpapers you can use on your Mac for Christmas!
Snow Man Snow Child
Waiting for the Miracle
A Small Gift for Christmas
Wishing You Magic
Christmas Lighthouse
Holidays Christmas
X'Mas Holiday
Christmas Icons
Most of these icons are to help you in better representing Christmas with your Mac. Santa Hat, Gift Packaging and Christmas Tree and Snowman Icons are must to have.
Christmas Gift Icons
SantaClaus Hat
Just for Fun
Apart from Screen Savers, Wallpaers and Icons, they're still many other Christmas related stuffs to decorate your Mac.
Pour snowflakes right onto your working Desktop; No need to enter the screen saver mode is the main advantage (and also the major distraction). But not to care much about the distractions, it's for Christmas afterall.
X-Mas Tree
Create your very own stand-alone Christmas tree with various selection of lights, bells, decorations and blinking stars (no, you won't have hanging Christmas Sock there).
Festive Lights
Dashboard Widget that dresses your Mac in elegant animated lights with 10 available motion patterns for you to enjoy. With simple Terminal command, you can drag this widget out of Dashboard into your Mac Desktop.
Decorate your Mac with couple of Christmas Lamps put at the back of your working windows, attempting to reduce distraction level on your Mac.
Xmas Lights
This little application behaves like MacLampsX with only difference in kind of lamps used and horizontal placement of lamps.
Santa Menu
Stick a head of santa to your menu bar and make a "Ho-Ho-Ho" sound in certain interval. Nothing much, really.

Is a home-based business right for you? Many military spouses find self-employment with a home-based business to be a good solution to the challenge of relocation, deployments, their service member's training schedule, and raising small children.
If you are thinking of starting a home-based business, you must first decide what type of business you would like to operate. Will you choose a traditional business that provides goods or services locally? Or will you choose a virtual business that provides goods or services to customers outside of your physical location? Examples of traditional businesses include child care services, food industry services, tailoring, or selling goods from a commercial provider. Examples of virtual businesses include medical transcribing, writing, website design, call center services, and administrative services. Home businesses owned and operated by military spouses are as unique and diverse as our military population! You can explore the challenges and benefits of operating a home-based business by attending a class or workshop through your local chamber of commerce, installation education and employment center, or Small Business Administration.
If you are operating a business from your home on the installation (whether it is a government-owned home or a privatized dwelling), you must comply with your local housing authority's policy and guidance. For those in privatized housing, review your lease provisions, community rules, and tenant handbook. If you live in government housing (whether CONUS or OCONUS), you must comply with your Service-specific guidelines to operate your home-based business on base.
Overseas, the Status of Forces Agreement (SOFA) may affect the type of business you can operate. For example, the SOFA for your host country may prohibit goods distributed for resale to be shipped to an APO or FPO installation address. Before moving your business overseas, attend a moving overseas class or make contact with your new installation to discuss possible limitations with your home-based business. Click here for a home based business guide from the State Department.

Until military families are relieved of the weight of war, we hope you will continue to contribute to their wellbeing.

Harris to Sell Broadcast Communications to The Gores Group
Melbourne, FL - Dec 6, 2012 - Harris has reached an agreement to sell the Broadcast Communications division to an affiliate of The Gores Group for $225 million. The price includes $160 million in cash at closing, a $15 million subordinated promissory note and an earnout of up to $50 million based on future performance. The transaction is subject to customary regulatory review and closing conditions and is expected to be completed in early 2013. On May 1, 2012, Harris announced plans to divest the Broadcast Communications division.
"The sale of Broadcast Communications reflects our strategy to optimize our business portfolio and focus on our core businesses," said William M. Brown, president and chief executive officer of Harris. "As previously communicated, we plan to repurchase up to $200 million of our shares after the deal closes. This is in addition to the $200 million of share repurchases already planned for fiscal 2013 and reflects our ongoing commitment to effectively deploy capital, including returning cash to shareholders."
The Gores Group, LLC is a global investment firm focused on acquiring controlling interests in mature and growing businesses that can benefit from the firm's operating experience and flexible capital base. The Gores Group was founded in 1987 by Alec E. Gores
Harris Morris, president of the Broadcast Communications division, sent a letter following the sale announcement.
I am very pleased to share with you the news that The Gores Group, a global investment firm focused on acquiring controlling interests in mature and growing businesses, has made a binding offer to acquire the Harris Broadcast Communications Division from Harris Corporation. The Gores Group has successfully acquired and operated more than 80 companies around the world, and we are excited to help continue that tradition.
An exciting new chapter
Today's announcement marks a new chapter for both our company and our customers. I am very excited about this acquisition and the future of Harris Broadcast under new ownership.
The Gores Group brings enormous value to Harris Broadcast -- experience in diverse technology and media sectors, operational and financial expertise, a global investment approach, a flexible capital base, and a reputation for adding value to the businesses it acquires. Being owned by The Gores Group as a privately-held company will enable Harris Broadcast to capitalize on our market-leading position, continue to pursue growth opportunities, and aggressively respond to continually evolving market trends and customer needs.
A steady course
As I announced in an earlier communication, Harris Broadcast has retained use of the Harris brand for an extended period following the close. The Harris brand is highly regarded across the broadcast market -- and we are determined to maintain that. Regardless of ownership, our customers can feel confident doing business with a company they know and trust.
The Gores Group is acquiring all Harris Broadcast business areas and product lines and is excited by the end-to-end offering that Harris has in its portfolio. They are committed to developing leading edge technologies across the broadcast value chain.
We view our reputation for world-class support as our most highly valued asset, and our commitment to providing our customers with exceptional service at every stage of the sales cycle remains firm under new ownership.
Finally, we remain steadfast in our strategy to pursue attractive opportunities regardless of geographic location, which enables us to effectively address the needs of our growing global customer base.
In closing
I want to extend my sincere appreciation for the loyalty you have shown our company as this process has unfolded, and reiterate that our valued relationships remain our top priority.
As we lead the business under new ownership, my global Harris Broadcast team and I will ensure our dedication to our customers and partners remains steadfast, and that we are completely focused on meeting your most important needs.
From a timing perspective, it is intended that this transaction will close in the first quarter of 2013. I invite you to contact any of the global team, including me, should you have any questions regarding this announcement.
