Carpe Weekend: American mouths are blinking
By Jason Freeman firstname.lastname@example.com March 14, 2012 1:22PM
Updated: May 9, 2012 10:21AM
I've always loved the St. Patrick's Day concept of becoming Irish for a day.
What if we somehow could apply this transfigurative ability to other aspects of life? Wouldn't it be great?
The next time your car throws a rod, just become a mechanic for a day instead of paying someone else an entire paycheck to fix it.
The next time a Chicago Bears game happens to fall on a Sunday you're scheduled to work, just become sick for a day.
Sure, you'd be genuinely ill, but at least you'd be able to see quarterback Jay Cutler get sacked from the comfort of your own couch.
Late for work? No problem. Just become a mallard for a day and fly to your job quicker than a Nolan Ryan fastball.
I'm not sure how you'd actually perform said job with a beak and two wings, but at least you'd be at work on time.
Do bill collectors have your number on speed dial? Just become rich for a day and pay off all your debts.
Of course, none of this will ever happen. Except, of course, on St. Patrick's Day, when apparently everyone becomes Irish for a duration of 24 hours.
For a select few, St. Patrick's Day is genuinely about celebrating Irish heritage.
For most people, myself included, it's just the second-most popular day in which to get stammering drunk (New Year's Eve, I'm looking at you, too).
On St. Patrick's Day my Irish eyes aren't smiling, but only because I'm not an Irishman, no matter how hard I try to morph into one.
But my American mouth is blinking, simply because it keeps opening and closing around the tip of a cold bottle of Guinness.
If you're in the same boat, congratulations! Like me, you've just become drunk for a day.

I love to see folks "go retro", and this summer while at a yard sale, I heard one of the best stories. A woman came in and bought four pieces of old restaurantware, plates from various dining places. The lady at the check-out counter/card table asked her if she was a dealer. She responded with, "No, I use each and every one of them." I came up to her and asked if she really served her family with these dishes and she told me, not just her family, but guests as well. She went on to say how very solid and strong they are, having served people for years and not even a chip or a ding! She thought it was great fun to pull out a Woolworth's coffee shop plate and put a steak and potato on it. She also served peanut butter and jelly sandwiches to the neighbor's kids, placing them on plates from a high-end restaurant in the area. What a hoot!
It did make good sense; they are so durable and really make for good conversation pieces. In addition to restaurants, collectors like pieces from fraternal groups such as the Elks, Masons, Odd Fellows and Knights of Pythias, made by famous companies such as Buffalo China, Syracuse, Shenango, Rim-Roc, Mayer, and Scammell. I know you can find them at consignment shops, antique malls, flea markets and the like. I scrambled downstairs to see what I might have of interest and did find some fun dishes.
While checking inventory, I came across silver plated creamers, even a gravy boat, from serving establishments. These were very popular back in the day (probably 1920s and 30s) when hotels and restaurants did their best to impress their guests. Evidently, these were slipped into more handbags than we want to know, right?
My favorite was from the "O'Connor Hospital"; who would not like to pour cream out of that one? Perhaps someone saw their hospital bill and thought "they owe me this!"
A little sauce dish that I discovered was made by Wallace Silver Co., for the Wisconsin Club. This is a highly-respected, very expensive, members-only institution in Milwaukee and one that a dear friend of ours belongs to. He'd be totally impressed if I served gravy in this.
Another hotel piece I found was a small teapot from the Jolly Hotels. Not sure where they are located, but it would surely bring back a memory to someone. I checked on the name found on this cream pitcher from the Fallowfields Cafe and learned these restaurants were in England. I recall we bought this at a boot sale in Bourton on the Water, UK.
The prices for restaurantware are inexpensive, most likely in the $10-15 range. The silver plated creamers are more costly, probably in the $20-50 range, depending on the location. The most expensive pieces are from railroads or cruise ships and have held their values well.
In this day and age of recycling and "re-using" it makes sense to search for these pieces, which are also dishwasher safe. You probably won't want to use these creamers for serving, but they do add charm to any table or curio display.

'Underthetableland' is an adorable, whimsical project by Francisco Andriani, Florencia Buraschi and Candela Carreras that takes a childlike approach to tea time. Using the sort of imagination that's often lost as we transition into adulthood, 'Underthetableland' shows a little girl who is transformed into a queen after having a spot of tea.
During her reverie, the little girl in 'Underthetableland' is joined for tea by geometric creatures, a scene that reminds me of 'Alice in Wonderland.' Adorable!

Tasmania's greatest mountain quest
There are other Abels that are far from celebrated, unknown even to most Tasmanians. Several are little more than lumps rising from the state's central plateau, and might barely warrant a glance were it not for their inclusion on the Abels list.
Mount Penny West (1,119m), on the shores of Arthurs Lake can be hiked in a few minutes – if you can find it through the blanket of scrub – while Sandbanks Tier (1,401m) looks like little more than a low, rocky ridge above the eastern shore of Great Lake. Climb to its summit, however, hopping from boulder to boulder the entire way, and you find that appearance is deceptive. Views at the summit extend across much of the state, from distant Mount Wellington in the south to the northerly Ben Lomond massif, topped by Legges Tor, Tasmania's second-highest peak at 1,572m. It is a view so full of Abels, it can only entice you further into Tasmania's greatest mountain quest.

Our family eats a lot of chicken but the kids are getting tired of it. I am slowly trying to add more beef to our diet. I love italian food.....more white sauces than red.....and I really enjoy chinese dishes.

Girl Scouts (from left) Jordan Williams, 9, Leila Vallandigham, 8, Samantha Williams, 13, and Martha Torres, 9, admire the tower they designed for the morning project. | Sue Ellen Ross/For Sun-Times Media

Although Amulya Aluru is only in seventh grade, she's starting to think about education after high school. One area she is considering is engineering, and she recently attended an interactive event focusing on women in that profession.
"My mother, father and uncle are engineers, so it seems natural that I will study that too," she said, after arriving at the event held in honor of National Engineers Week at NIPSCO headquarters.
The daylong sessions offered an introduction to this career field for 125 second- to sixth- grade girls from the Greater Chicago and Northwest Indiana Girl Scout troops. An additional 25 young daughters of NiSource employees also participated.
" We're using the same format as last year; it was such a success and the girls were really excited while they were here," said event co-chairman Ashley Terry. "We definitely wanted to do it again."
The day held many opportunities to learn in a fun and engaging way. Facilitated by NIPSCO volunteers, those attending were broken into groups, as they first attempted a hands-on project and then traveled to four learning stations.
The project was the first task of the day — building an 18-inch tower with a tennis ball on top that would not yield to high winds.
Dillen Edwards 10, of Portage, was not fazed. "When I was little, I learned to work with tools in the basement," she said. "We built things with wood and we can do this."
After the construction job, the girls broke into groups to visit four stations.
The first stop was a talk given by three woman engineers.
NIPSCO employee Amy Lohman is a major projects leader. "A lot of young girls have no idea of what an engineer does," she said. "Through this event, they can learn about the wide variety of careers available in this field."
Joining Lohman on the panel were Dee Cota and Anita Bateman.
When asked if she has homework, Bateman laughed and replied that occasionally her briefcase does accompany her when she leaves work. "Yes, I do have homework. Sometimes my work can't be completed in a regular workday, so I do take it home."
The other stations included an "Exploding House," Safety Village and electricity demonstration.
The latter was presented by retired NIPSCO lineman Buzz Ingram.
"Electricity comes in from under the ground or overhead lines, and gas lines are buried," he told the girls. "If dad or grandpa is outside digging and they don't know what is in the ground, it can be dangerous. Electricity can come through their shovel."
Alayna Andree, 9, of Griffith paid rapt attention to this particular talk. "We are learning about power and voltage in school," she said. "What he's saying is interesting and we're learning more about it."
The event was hosted by NIPSCO and organized by NiSource Inc.'s Developing and Advancing Women at NiSource group.

I'm wondering if i get seeds and start indoors now will it bloom this year?
Follow-Up Postings:
- Posted by brockthegreek 7a OK (My Page) on Sun, Feb 22, 09 at 20:25
Hi Maureen, I don't see why you couldn't. I saved some seeds from a cross between two varieties and planted them at the end of April last year. Everything I had read said they were hard to grow from seed. I would agree with that. Out of a dozen seeds, I only had two sprout. Only one of those survived. It took until the end of September before I had it bloom. Here's a couple of pics of it. Give it a shot. BTG
Read up some more on it (google or something). One year I wanted to save some seed to try and grow my own...and I recall reading somewhere it takes 6 months from planting seed to getting the blooms. Hope I'm wrong. ~kioni~ |
I think that I got some in a seed exchange. I winter sowed them and also had terrible germination rates. Only one came up out of the bunch, and it did bloom at the end of the summer. I kept it in a pot, so that may have been part of the problem. I have more winter sown this year, but so far, nothing. |
- Posted by irish_rose_grower z7 LI NY (My Page) on Sun, Mar 1, 09 at 15:15
hi thanks for the feedback. I"m sowed my today indoors on a heat mat in a sunny south window. When it germinates I will move it to the basement under lights). Brockthegreek - the bloom on your lantan is so beautiful. thanks for the pics. |
Hi. New here, and not someone with a green thumb. But I have a spot in my yard where we can't get anything to grow. I have a pink and yellow lantana that we have actually been trying to kill off (it's crowding a young mesquite we want to succeed). For now the lantana has found a spot we'll let it be in if it will stay put. Anyway, I thought I could take the seeds from this super hardy perennial and plant them in my empty spot. It's starting to make seeds now, they are green. In the fall they turn black and look like blackberries. Is that when they are ready for planting? Do I plant the whole fruit? Should I plant it in the fall or save it for spring? How should I save it? Thanks for any advice. I live in very arid high desert mesa, and both locations are very sunny. |

When Bill Gerber was running Warner Bros., he wanted Clint Eastwood to work with a director whose work he'd come to admire. The director also played golf, and so Gerber figured that he could get the two men together on the golf course. They played as a threesome one afternoon, and the next morning Gerber called Eastwood.
"Well, what did you think?"
"I liked him, and he's a smart guy. But if he directs anything like he plays golf, we'll be on the set for two years."
And that's how a Clint Movie doesn't get made.
He is well-known for his first takes for expecting his actors and crew to be prepared for them and for moving on if he gets what he wants. He is well-known for not hurrying "Nobody runs in a hospital, and they're saving lives" and also for not wasting any time. He is well-known for letting the camera run until the actor breaks character rather than until he says "Cut." He is well-known for saying "Let's move on" instead of "Cut" and for saying "Let's move on" most of the time.
"You have to beg him for a second take," says Matt Damon, who starred in two Clint Movies, Invictus and Hereafter. "I did once, and he said, 'Why, so you can waste everybody's time?' "
He has his reasons, of course. "I try to do whatever it takes," he says. "If one take, great. If ten takes, that's what it has to be. Artistically, though, I like to see the person the first time the situation ever crosses their brain and the first time it goes through their eyes and the first time the words come out of their mouths. I've seen great actors do amazing things on the first take. Is there a Clint way? I guess the Clint way is just to realize you've got it when you've got it. And if you don't have it, realize you don't have it. And go accordingly."
"You know you have to be ready because it's one take," says Jeff Daniels, who made Blood Work with Eastwood in 2002. "And you can't believe it. You're told and you're ready and there it is. You get one take, and you move on. You're just like, 'Really?' And he goes, 'Oh, we're good.' And by the time you ran that little two-line exchange, the camera's already being moved and lights are being taken down. Lunch is being served."
He never raises his voice, and never has to. Nobody argues with him. Nobody challenges him. It's simply not done, and when it is, it is remembered. "Once," answered Jack Green, the cinematographer on fourteen Clint Movies, when asked if he remembered anyone arguing with Clint Eastwood.
It was Kevin Costner, on the set of 1993's A Perfect World. Eastwood directed, and didn't agree to act in it until Costner pushed him to because, as he told a member of the crew, he wanted to have a poster featuring him and Clint Eastwood. But Costner was a big star who had agreed to make an art film while Eastwood was determined to make a Clint Movie, and they were at cross-purposes. Finally, Eastwood called Costner from his trailer for a scene, and Costner told him to wait that he wasn't ready.
"Find his extra," Eastwood said, "and put a shirt on him."
He wound up shooting the scene with the extra with the extra walking through a field, and the camera so close to him he became a blur. Then Costner emerged from his trailer and announced that he was ready to work. "Never mind," Eastwood said, "we're moving on."
"You shot the scene with my extra?" Costner said, in what would be the first of several exchanges with his director.
"I get paid to burn film," Eastwood said.
There are two questions that come up about Clint Eastwood. The first: Is he really like that? The second: Has he always been like that? Here's a story a little story that proposes to answer both, as well as the question nobody ever asks: How does he make people do exactly what he wants them to do?
Lennie Niehaus met Clint Eastwood in the Army. He met him at Fort Ord, near Salinas, California. Eastwood served as a lifeguard of sorts, making sure the new recruits didn't drown in the pool when they had to prove they could swim. Eastwood was working when Niehaus tore his foot open on some broken tiles. A drill sergeant came along and told Niehaus to get moving. "Can't you see the man is hurt?" Eastwood said, and took him to the infirmary.
"He stood there while I was getting stitched up. They used no anesthesia and Clint stood there the whole time."
They became friends, with a common interest in jazz. Niehaus played sax in the marching band and oboe in the concert orchestra, and after his discharge he went back to playing with bandleader Stan Kenton. He met Eastwood again when Niehaus was conducting for Jerry Fielding, who scored Eastwood's films. They kept in touch, and in 1984 Eastwood called. "He said, 'Hey, Lennie, I have a little movie' everything's little with him 'and I'd like you to help me with something. I have a little movie, and I think you'd be good for it.' "
The movie was Tightrope, and Niehaus wrote the score. He also wrote the score for Heartbreak Ridge, and became yet another person for whom Clint Eastwood has acted as friend, colleague, boss, benefactor, and paterfamilias. How many are there? Well, twenty years ago, Jack Green went to Canada to do the cinematography for a movie being shot around Vancouver, and an official for a Canadian filmmaking union asked when Clint Eastwood was going to shoot a movie in Canada. "Never," Green answered, "because he can't bring his family."
"How big is his family?" the official asked.
"Fifty or sixty people who go everywhere he goes," Green said.
When the official understood that Green was referring to Eastwood's crew, he offered a deal: Anyone who could prove that they'd worked with Eastwood on more than five films could come up to Canada and get around the union's work rules.
"Well, that was everybody," Green says, "and that's how Unforgiven came to be shot in Canada."
Indeed, the question of exactly what constitutes a Clint Movie turns out to have an easy answer: A Clint Movie is a movie shot by Clint Eastwood's crew. He gives them more freedom than most other filmmakers give their crews, and they give him greater constancy. He waits on line with them at the catering truck instead of eating lunch in his trailer; he moves equipment with them; he generally starts the workday after nine and ends it before five so that they can have breakfast and dinner with their families. He readily admits that his method of making movies depends almost entirely on their experience and skill, and so in return, "They would jump into traffic for him," says Matt Damon. "They know that if they can do their jobs, they have a job for life," says Al Ruddy, who on this occasion has it right in spirit but wrong in fact.
Take Jack Green as an example. He started as a camera operator under cinematographer Bruce Surtees, who'd worked on Eastwood's directorial debut, Play Misty for Me, and stayed with him for fifteen years. One day, Surtees went to Eastwood and told him that Green was ready to take his job. Green began working as Eastwood's cinematographer when Eastwood made Heartbreak Ridge. Eventually, he came to understand his boss so well that his boss barely needed to speak to him; he communicated instead by a series of hand gestures that Green then interpreted for those who didn't understand. Green stayed on the job for fifteen years, until one day Eastwood called him to his office and explained that Tom Stern, who'd joined the crew as a gaffer twenty years earlier, was ready to take over.
"He likes to move people up within the company when he knows that they are ready and that maybe somebody who is more mature is ready to move on and do other work," Green says. "He wanted to give someone else a chance, and I think I was also getting a little expensive."
Jack Green did not argue with Clint Eastwood when Clint Eastwood replaced him after a total of twenty-eight films. He simply accepted what everybody accepts, what every Clint Eastwood anecdote, performance, and movie is actually about: his authority. He was the first American authority figure to arise out of the era when American authority fell apart, and he figures to be the last. How did he accrue his authority? Well, those who work with him now that he's old like Matt Damon credit his experience. But those who knew him when he was young like Lennie Niehaus say he had it even then. Perhaps the simplest answer is that like Jack Green, we gave it to him. And he had the good sense both to take it and to wear it lightly.
"Oh, I think he's aware of the effect that he has on people, men and women," Meryl Streep says. "He's canny about that. And he's a modest person, you know? He's very humble. But he is, in a sense, savvy about his effect on people. And it's a useful, useful thing."
Clint Eastwood, of course, says that Meryl Streep is overthinking it again and that in any case, he doesn't want to think about the effect he has on people, especially as an actor: "You try different things, you try to exercise every element you know how to do. But you don't want to try to figure out how you relate to people and how they relate to you, because then you'll be sitting there every scene, saying, Okay, I want the audience to... And then it's gone."
And yet he uses it. He uses it when he's acting and he uses it when he's directing and he uses it when he walks into the room. He uses it every day, and fifteen years ago he used it when he was in Savannah filming Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil and a Georgia state trooper pulled over a member of his crew.
"We had just gotten in," says John Lee Hancock, who wrote Midnight as well as Perfect World for Eastwood and who calls his experience with Eastwood "my film school." "There's a limo and a van at the airport. Of course Clint gets into the van. And the driver's young, and he's driving pretty fast as we're heading to town. And so he gets pulled over. Georgia state trooper, with the hat and whole thing. And the driver doesn't want Clint to get involved, so he gets out of the van. Well, the state trooper doesn't like that, and starts reading him the riot act. He can't see inside, can't see Clint. And Clint just listens. Doesn't move. Finally, he looks at me and says, in that voice, I think I'll talk to him.
"And then he gets out of the van."

"This was my first time making a soup with lentils. I was intrigued with the burghul and excited to try it. It was easy to make. I added sliced carrots and mushrooms to the broth mixture and red, yellow, and orange peppers to the onion mixure to get more veggies in. Love the flavor! Used 2 cloves garlic as most other users. So healthy and tasty!!..."

-None that I can think of
-Very greasy looking
-Makes my skin oily looking/feeling
-Strong, strange scent
-Doesnt cover much
No, no, no! If you are oily, acne-prone and sensitive to harsh, chemical smells, steer clear! Ew, I would definitely not repurchase. The coloring for this product is also way offif youre nC35 youll probably need something a lot darker than youd think. At first on, it looked okay but it didnt cover much. After an hour my face was one huge oil slick. I could fry a batch of onion rings on my face. Disgusting. Also, the scent is awful. This is sitting in my drawer waiting to be thrown out.

PROS: Great for my large pores and wrinkles. Gives a pretty luminosity that is dewy. (See my application tips for being able to use it under my eyes!) I can get away with "medium" in the winter -- both colors I use are definitely quite neutral -- but I add just a touch of "medium plus" in the summer. In the winter, I'm N20-25, leaning a bit to NC. Does not highlight any of my dry flakes.
CONS: Not the cheapest in the world. If you are oily, this tinted "moisturizer" is not for you. If you don't like dewy, you'll want to set this with powder, I think. There is a fragrance component in this (discussed by beautypedia or whatever it's called at Paula's Choice) that can be irritating for some with sensitive skin.
APPLICATION TIPS: To make it last longer, I like to first use L'oreal magic perfecting primer patted into pores (also helps disguise my pores). I let it sit for at least a minute and I then apply foundation. I then pat with a damp beautyblender sponge to blend even more beautifully. More oily skin may want to set this with powder (or even use the makeup artist Wayne Goss's little trick of applying moisturizer, then powder, then TM or foundation. He describes it on his youtube channel. It sounds bizarre, but it works.) I prefer not to include any powder because I like a SLIGHTLY dewy finish, or at least nonmatte.
I love using this under my eyes before concealer (that I only put in the actual circle, because otherwise, concealer highlights my puffy bags.) Have now started using TimeBalm TM under my eyes instead, because the fragrance in this has started to irritate my sensitive eye skin.
REMOVAL TIPS: If you are prone to clogging, you may want to remove this with a cleansing oil before using your regular cleanser.
ALTERNATES: BalmShelter TM is lovely, leaves a slightly dewy finish like this, and doesn't highlight wrinkles/pores at all and is great on my very sensitive skin. L'oreal Visible Lift Serum Absolute Advanced Age-Reversing Makeup is pretty good but not near as nice for wrinkles as this and provides a more semimatte/satin finish. For a dewy finish and more coverage, TimeBalm foundation by The Balm is very kind to wrinkles/pores.

Total gem! Better than any foundation I've found and kinder to my skin. Amazing coverage for a TM. I use medium plus on my sensitive, dry/combination skin and have given up on finding anything better for the moment. I have nothing bad to say about this and can apply on the go with either fingertips or a brush. Have already repurchased and will continue to do so.

I bought this on a whim, after being fed up with the Clinique tinted moisturizer that splattered every time I used it and ruined some of my tops. The MAC product was thicker, and creamier but still easy to apply. The tube I bought last September is still being used! I apply once a day and it takes just a small amount to cover the face. I usually apply a bit of regular moisturizer first so the tinted moisturizer goes on easy and quick. The colours of the MAC product are very true and natural looking unlike some products that look fake. For the price you can't go wrong with this for wearability and ease of use. It lasts much longer than anticipated so you really get your moneys worth too.

This has great coverage for a TM and is great for oily to normal skin as it doesn't make you any oilier, however, it does not control oil either and will not look good on any dry patches you have. With a gradual face tanner I'm NC20 and bought this in shade medium. It's a very neutral shade, not too yellow or too pink. Overall I think it's a great product as it provides you with undetectable coverage. It looks like your skin just better!

I have purchased the nars tinted moisturiser aswell as the mac tinted moisturiser and what I can say is mac tinted moisturiser broke me out and left my skin looking very dry. The coverage is ok not satisfying. I prefer the Nars over this product because when I was my face after applying nars it still leaves my skin soft. Mac didn't do that it left me with spots and dry skin. I wouldn't buy this product again.

(I am about a NC/NW 45 with normal skin and I am a Dark for this product)
I think this is the best tinted moisturizer for someone who wants some coverage and doesn't like to use a lot of products. Also great for people Nw/NC 40 and up who are always battling products going ashy on their skin.
I love how it blends easily with fingers or a brush as well. Also, a little of the product goes a long way. Lastly, the product is slightly buildable for more coverage.

Age: 36-43 Skin: Combination, Medium, Neutral Hair: Brunette, Fine Eyes: Green
For reference: Combination skin (slightly oil t-zone, dry/dehydrated cheeks), sensitive, broken capillaries, neutral to warm skin tone (NC/NW 25ish), green eyes, dark brown hair
I was matched to the color 'Medium' at the MAC counter and was given a sample to take home. This tinted moisturizer dried nicely on my face. Not oily or too matte. I liked it didn't have a slick feel compared to other TM"s I've tried. The coverage was okay. I have broken capillaries, some redness so TM's in my experience have never fully covered. I applied a bit of concealer over the red areas.
The biggest con for me was the color. It looked quite yellow on my skin tone. For that reason I won't be repurchasing. The light color was too pale for me and the dark.. well too dark.

The new $81 million dollar Lompoc Valley Medical Center opened its doors to the community on Tuesday.
The 60-bed facility is located at the corner of East Ocean Avenue and Seventh Avenue in Lompoc.
Patients were transported from the hospital on Hickory Avenue to the new facility on Tuesday morning.
The project was publicly funded through a health care bond in 2005. It passed with 87 percent of the vote.
Hospital administrators are extremely grateful to the public for its support. The hospital boasts new, state of the art equipment, which leaders say will be more efficient and improve patient care.

Take nothing away from Samsung: with a 219% year-on-year shipment growth and higher volumes than any other vendor for the first time, the Korean giant can take a moment to celebrate being number one in the smartphone market. Apple will tell you though: this is only one quarter (and the quarter before a new iPhone is about to be launched).
With 4 million iPhones sold in the first three days, and the holiday season ahead, Apple could re-take the lead come the next set of results. Apple's results were certainly nothing to scoff at either – up 3 million year-on-year (and against a quarter in 2010 when the iPhone 4 was launched). Samsung is certainly not backing down though: the Galaxy Note – with a 5.3" display – is an interesting prospect, particularly given the interest in tablets with larger displays.
An honourable mention goes to HTC though, which doubled its shipments year-on-year and is now number four in the smartphone market, behind the recovering Nokia. So, with Windows Phone 7 providing a shot in the arm for the Finnish vendor, the top five are going to continue trading places in the near future. RIM also continues to re-evaluate its product strategy, introducing more touchscreen-orientated designs in an effort to bolster its position. Likewise, Sony Ericsson shipped over 8 million of its XPERIA range as it nears a complete transition to dedicated smartphone vendor.
So, with three different leaders in the last three quarters, and many other serious contenders, watch this space for the Q4 results in the new year…
