Narcoleptic Teen Brings Message to Washington
Imagine taking a sleeping pill and then trying to stay awake the entire day. That is kind of what it feels like to have narcolepsy.
Narcolepsy is a relatively rare disorder that affects the bodys ability to control regular sleep-wake cycles.
Brandon Coonrod, of Chatham, was diagnosed two years ago. Before medication he watched his grades drop, his teachers shake their heads and his friends laugh.
Now he has a very serious message that he is taking with him all the way to Washington D.C.
"At first we just thought we had a lazy, typical teenager son," Brandon's mother Gina Coonrod joked.
Brandon could not keep his eyes open throughout a single class no matter how hard he tried. His teachers made snarky comments.
"'The rest of us will be doing homework and Brandon can go finish his nap,'" Brandon Coonrod said of his teachers. "You know. It's not their fault," he said.
They didn't know and neither did the Coonrods. Brandon has narcolepsy.
"[It] kind of felt like I was sleeping through life," Brandon Coonrod said.
Brandon is now on a pair of medications and a gluton-free diet.
"In a way I didn't realize how tired I was until I felt like normal again," Brandon Coonrod said.
Brandon cannot live his dream of joining the military and getting his license next year might come with some strings. But he can hope for a better future.
"He submitted a questionnaire to maybe be a panelist," Gina Coonrod said.
For the Food and Drug Administration's Narcolepsy Public Meeting just outside the nation's capitol.
"And they only chose 10 from the country," Gina Coonrod said.
Brandon will be one of the youngest to speak next week.
"Yeah I gotta get a speech written before then," Brandon Coonrod joked.
A task Brandon's not worried about. He is a fan of public speaking. He wants to go into politics. And he knows just what he'll say to the FDA.
"Hopefully through this they can get a better understanding of what it's like to live with narcolepsy and why they should pursue research and fund research in this field. And just hopefully through that maybe get some better medication and some possibly even a cure for those people with narcolepsy," Brandon Coonrod said.
Brandon says living with this disorder would be much more difficult if it was not for his supportive family-- particularly his siblings-- and his circle of friends.
The FDA's public meeting is Tuesday. It will feature patients like Brandon and doctors who are pushing for drug development.

Cambria County passes budget with help from loan
By Maria Miller
CAMBRIA COUNTY, Pa. -- There were more heated disagreements in Cambria County Thursday morning as the commissioners unveiled and voted on next year's budget. It comes without any tax increases and the commissioners said it even shows a savings about $1.7 million, nut there's at least one person who said it isn't going to work.
The majority of the commissioners called the budget a success, one that's helping to improve the future of the county. But the county controller said it's another budget that won't work, a budget that's not taking into account scheduled bills and payments and overestimates the tax revenue that's expected to come in.
"This is the third budget in a row that this commission has passed without a tax increase," said president commissioner Douglas Lengenfelder.
But in order to get through this year the commissioners had to refinance a $19 million loan and take take out half of their $10 million dollar tax anticipation note early -- money the county depends on at the beginning of every year to get through until tax season.
"We are borrowing money ... $5 million to pay off a loan that was supposed to paid off in this year," said Cambria County Controller Ed Cernic. "Never in the ten years that I've been here has Cambria County failed to pay off their tax anticipation note until this year."
By taking half of the loan out early this year, Lengenfelder said they'll be able to pay it off faster and with less interest, avoiding the same problem next year. But Cernic said the budget doesn't take into consideration outstanding bills and money the county borrowed from itself.
"By the end of this year we'll owe our agencies over $6 million that we've borrowed and deplete all the funds," said Cernic. "We'll have well in excess of $3 million in unpaid bills on top of that."
"Ultimately in the next number of years there's a number of loans that we have that will be off. Our debt is decreasing," said commissioner Mark Wissinger. "This, we thought, was a more effective way to do it."
The budget passed with a 2-1 vote, commissioner Tom Chernisky being the lone opposed voter. He said he agreed with most of the budget, except a proposed $150,000 cut to Pennsylvania Highlands Community College.

Named a Top Salon by Milwaukee Magazine in 2006, Bella Lei gives clients an upscale spa experience in an intimate setting. Take advantage of these environs and spend 60 minutes the Swedish way ($70 value), as trained massage therapists use firm pressure and complicated kneading techniques to untie knots and burst stress bubbles. Twitching muscles frequently relax after these sessions and show a marked improvement in standardized testing scores. For clients looking for a fresher front, the Vivo Facial ($70 value) uses a marine mask to create an even tone, while a full hand, arm, face, and décolleté massage carries the glow up through your neck and down to your fingertips like a carrier pigeon on a Fantastic Voyage.
Inside the tranquil office, the experienced massage therapists at A Touch of Heaven employ personalized handiwork to unwind burdened bodies. Professionally trained in a variety of techniques, from Swedish massage to trigger-point therapy, the muscle mavens tailor 60-minute massages to each client's needs and particular areas of concern. Aromatherapy soothes senses with pleasing aromas, and a revitalizing eye treatment diminishes fine lines and reduces puffiness, dryness, and any bothersome issues related to peering into the ninth dimension.
The massage therapists at InTouch Therapeutic Massage LLC take an integrative approach to healing the body through massage therapy. That means their services include traditional techniques like swedish massage as well as more holistic ones such as myofascial release and lymphatic drainage. Clients can also schedule a 90-minute chakra stone massage or pair up for a 60- or 90-minute couple's massage. For new clients, massage therapists are eager to spend a couple extra minutes before the appointment to learn about each client's health history and golas for the session.
Seated in one of Allure Salon & Spa's plush salon chairs, visitors look out over the bubbling brooks of the Milwaukee River as skilled stylists and aestheticians tend to their hair and complexions with a long list of beautifying services. Swathed in earth tones and adorned with rustic accents—from redbrick walls to wooden cabinets that hold the aestheticians' very own additive-free products—the upscale salon attempts to capture the peacefulness of the river outside with exfoliating facials, soothing aromatherapy massages, and rejuvenating body treatments. Stylists design hair for men, women, and children, coloring or highlighting longer strands before arranging them into shapes inspired by the bold, fin-like structure of the nearby Milwaukee Art Museum.
Licensed aesthetician Sue Landowski calms problematic skin on both men and women. She customizes her facials and uses a diamond wand to exfoliate skin during microdermabrasion treatments. Specialty services, including paraffin hand treatments and lip treatments, further boost skin's health and radiance.
At The Colour Bowl Salon, licensed cosmetologists tend hair gardens with a variety of grooming services, including cutting, styling, and coloring. Customers can opt for a formal finishing treatment ($45) to increase strands' health, shine, and empathy for Russian czars. A Brazilian Blowout (price varies) leaves follicles glossy and frizz-free, and a half ($70) or full ($78) head of beam-deflecting highlights can protect bikers on their nightly commutes. A one-step hair coloring ($52) turns blond heads into red heads and bald heads into Easter eggs, and most follicles can feast on nutritious products from Alterna, Enjoy, Simply Organic, and Moroccanoil during their treatments.

The Daily Troll: Amazon also targets Disney. Watching for more fire in Central WA. Catching the pot dollars.
Amazon vs. The World
In the middle of a fight with a major book publisher, Amazon is also flexing its muscles against one of the world's biggest media conglomerates — Disney. Amazon has halted preorders of nearly all of Disney's Blu-Ray and DVD discs to pressure the media company to reduce its prices, in a tactic already deployed against the Hachette book publishing firm and Warner Bros. Home Media Magazine first reported last week that the Seattle-based retail giant suddenly dropped the preorder options for discs of Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Maleficent and several others. (But you can still preorder the online-streaming versions to watch on Amazon Instant Prime.)
Bloomberg News today called the Disney move a sign that Amazon is becoming more willing to pressure its suppliers. Amazon itself is under pressure from investors to reduce its financial losses. While Amazon asked the public to email Hachette asking it to sell books more cheaply; GeekWire reported that the book firm's CEO, Michael Pietsch, spent part of Sunday emailing those who wrote him on Amazon's behalf. Pietsch thanked the writers for caring about books and suggested that they "call on Amazon to withdraw the sanctions against Hachette's authors." — M.L.
Are wildfires getting worse?
Think fires are bad this year? Let's go back to the days of horse-drawn wagons. Despite global warming, fires today are smaller and less severe overall than fires the West's early settlers had to deal with, according to a KUOW report. However, over recent decades, the number of acres burned by wildfires has been increasing significantly.
History books aside, the immediate dangers continue. According to a Wenatchee World report, dry lightning and wind expected today through Wednesday could challenge firefighters' efforts to contain fires across North Central Washington. — E.W.
Washington new green business
There's something green about marijuana sales, and isn't the pot leaves. It's the color of $3.6 million that flowed through Washington's pot businesses in the first month of legal sales. The Olympian reports that of that total, the state received $889,000 in tax revenue. All those sales come in spite of a supply shortage from 150 growers who haven't been operating long enough to grow, harvest, package and ship the amount of pot needed to meet demand. — M.L.
Are your selfies book-worthy?
Maybe Kim Kardashian shouldn't have followed the advice of the 25-foot neon sculpture hanging from the trees of Occidental Park in Pioneer Square, proclaiming "just be your selfie." The 33-year-old reality starlet is set to debut a hardcover book next spring, featuring 352 of her "best" selfies, according to a New York Daily News report. We just wonder if her book, titled "Selfish," contains even 352 words. — E.W.

Ayah Bdeir, littleBits
Founded in 2011, littleBits--dubbed "Legos for the iPad generation"--has sold its kits in 60 countries. Bdeir, considered one of the leaders in the open-source-hardware movement, says her engineering background has had a strong influence on how she manages her staff of 31.Ayah Bdeir, founder of littleBits, a line of magnetic modules that let kids make their own electronic creations, never stops asking herself how she can make things better. "Leadership is hard work. You have to be continuously questioning yourself and your methods and evaluating what's working and what's not working," she says. "You have to think about something 24/7, obsess over why a problem is the way it is and obsess over different hypotheses, because the first 30 don't work and the 31st is the one that works."
"Everything is a problem that can be solved. It's about identifying a problem, coming up with a hypothesis on why it's happening and then testing out the hypothesis," she says. "It's the classic engineering problem-solving cycle I go through, whether it's a marketing campaign that didn't get as many hits or a hire in the company that's not working out."
Bdeir has built littleBits with this mindset. "There's never any shame in pointing out any problem, and there is no ego in the company, so anybody should and can point out something," she says. "We want to put it out there and solve it, and as a result our team is very strong, cohesive and collaborative." --M.J.

A video retrospective of Apple in 2010
This quick video retrospective of Apple's fares and fortunes in the past year is pretty good. From the introduction of the iPad to the new MacBook Air and the release of the Beatles on iTunes, this is a very nice little walk through 2010 from Apple's point of view.
It's been one heck of a year for the company, too, and because of all the waves Apple sent out this year, it's been an interesting twelve months for the industries that surround it. Next year may be even more exciting, with the Mac App Store, likely a new iPad, and whatever else Steve Jobs and company dream up for us.
Thanks, John W!

"Funny and soooo cute!"
Version: Iggle Pop 1
I recommend this game for your kids or yourself if you're still young at heart like I am, lol. The graphics are very good as well as music and sounds. The little Iggle are just so cute and that little "Ho-ome!" cheer they make is funny. First few level are easy but you can go on expert difficulty too. My kids and nephews went nuts over this game, and so did I. Give it a try.

We didn't do one of these last week, on account of the holiday and all, which leaves us a whole lot to choose from this week. There were so many good videos from so many different corners of the internet universe this week that every single selection here is pure gold. Also, there was one music video this week that was pretty much just Beyoncé grinding for five minutes, and I didn't list it. Please acknowledge my restraint. Our top five, after the jump.
1. Fleet Foxes – "The Shrine/An Argument" (Dir. Sean Pecknold)
A perfectly evocative animation about some sort of antelope or elk or something wandering across a fantastical plain and encountering some freaky creatures. It's tough to say what the whole thing means, but it raises goosebumps throughout, and it really taps into this mythic quality in the song, building on it and making me like it more than I did already.
2. Birdman – "Y.U. Mad" (Feat. Nicki Minaj & Lil Wayne) (Dir. Gil Green)
Nicki Minaj's eerily accurate Lil Wayne impression in that one scene! Her absurdly impractical bathing-suit thing in the other one! Lil Wayne's giant red hat! Lil Wayne and Nicki's synchronized dance steps! Birdman's almost-entirely bleeped-out verse! Rap videos! When they're done right, there's nothing better. Also, I like imagining Birdman's face when Wayne showed up on set dressed like an eighth-grade candy-raver fashion victim.
3. Shabazz Palaces – Black Up (Dir. Khalil Joseph)
These images may not connect on any non-abstract level, but each one is haunting in its own way, and they all add up to something that lingers in your brain. And just as importantly, each one looks way crisper than anything you'd expect to see in a low-budget music video. Seriously, that bit under the subway tracks looks like something from a Christopher Nolan movie.
4. Handsome Furs – "Serve The People" (Dir. Han Xia)
If this video about an everyhipster's struggle against day-to-day drudgery were filmed in Europe or even America, it'd likely still be pretty good; the economic storytelling and well-composed cinematography would see to that. But since it was filmed in China, it also works as a fascinating glimpse of how people live when they're attempting to live the kind of lives that we take for granted but doing it on the other side of the planet.
5. The Jameses – "5th Dimension" (Dir. Drew Blatman)
A fun, evocative, fast-moving time-lapse travelogue of Florida that almost makes that ridiculous state look like a nice place to be. Almost.

This is my attend to plant m. Alba in Sunset 13, Palm Spings area California. Well, this is the desert with very dry and hot summer. Except August and September the so call monsoon, humid and hot. Today (Aug 5) is 115deg with 14% humidity.
Now we can talk about Michelia Alba. I have seem them do well in Hong Kong. So this is my thoughts: 1. My Gardenia is doing fantastic, I saw gardenia and M Alba thriving side by side in Hong Kong. So there may be hope.
I am thinking of digging a 3ft dia by 2ft deep hole, fill with compost and HD garden top soil. Plant a 5g M alba in the middle, thinking when the root out grow the 3' garden soil and reach the sand, it will be big enough to handle the adversity? What do you guys think? |
Follow-Up Postings:
Hi toffee-el - did you plant the M. Alba in the ground yet? Please share any picture of your progress...it will be fun. Kasie |

Sick gloves!
A little pricey, but you get what you pay for. The lining is soft and warm. The full leather shell is extremely dexterous, but is still great at keeping you warm and dry. The studs add just a bit of bling!

Tori Spelling Tweets Picture of New Son Finn (PHOTO)
Want to see the cutest baby photo ever? Well, you're in luck! Tori Spelling just tweeted it.
On Saturday, the Beverly Hills 90210 alum and mother of four tweeted this angelic photo of her tiny, 4-day-old son Finn lying in the palm of her husband's (Dean McDermott) hand. The precious pic doesn't reveal Finn's face (why are you holding out on us, Tori!), but it does show his teeny-tiny head and adorable locks of hair.
Spelling tweeted the photo with a caption that read: "So in love."
This is the second photo of Finn that his proud mama has posted in the last week. On August 30, Spelling tweeted a photo of Finn's tiny hand announcing his arrival. "It's a boy!!!!" she wrote.
And Spelling isn't the only one who's excited about Finn's arrival. On the night before Finn was born, Spelling's husband Dean wrote a letter welcoming his new son into the family. "With all of my heart, I shared a welcome letter to my & @torianddean new baby boy, Finn," he tweeted.
Finn joins older siblings Liam, 5, Stella, 4, and Hattie, 10 months, and half-sibling Jack, 13, from McDermott's previous marriage. Spelling, 39, and McDermott, 45, were married in May of 2006.
What do you think of baby Finn? Is this the cutest baby photo ever? Drop us a comment!

I prefer to use buttercream on my cakes. It is what I have learned to use, and what I like to eat! I use ABC, and SMBC. My favorite is the Swiss. It is just so delicious and silky looking. If I were to get a booth at a bridal show, how would I showcase the SMBC? Will it hold up on a dummy for any length of time? I know I could use a crusting BC, but it does not have that beautiful sheen that SMBC has. Has anyone used SMBC on dummies if even just for a few days?

Watson: Tiger should 'clean up his act'
DUBAI, United Arab Emirates -- Tom Watson says Tiger Woods needs to "show some humility to the public" when he returns to golf after sorting out his personal life.
Watson also said Wednesday that Woods should clean up his on-course behavior in order to be considered among the true greats of the game.
"I feel that he has not carried the same stature that other great players that have come along like Jack [Nicklaus], Arnold [Palmer], Byron Nelson, the Hogans, in the sense that there was language and club throwing on the golf course.
" -- Tom Watson on Tiger Woods
Woods is on an indefinite break since his car crash Nov. 27 that fueled sordid tales of extramarital affairs.
"I'll let the cat out of the bag," Watson said ahead of the Dubai Desert Classic. "Tiger has to take ownership of what he has done. He must get his personal life in order. I think that's what he's trying to do. And when he comes back he has to show some humility to the public.
"I would come out and I would do an interview with somebody and say, 'You know what? I screwed up. And I admit it. I am going to try to change. I am trying to change. I want my wife and family back."
The 60-year-old Watson, one of golf's elder statesmen, also criticized Woods -- a 14-time major winner -- for bad language and other on-course behavior.
"I feel that he has not carried the same stature that other great players that have come along like Jack [Nicklaus], Arnold [Palmer], Byron Nelson, the Hogans, in the sense that there was language and club throwing on the golf course," Watson said. "You can grant that of a young person that has not been out here for a while. But I think he needs to clean up his act and show the respect for the game that other people before him have shown."
Despite beginning his year with victories in Hawaii in the Champions Skins and the senior's Mitsubishi Electric Championship, Watson played down his chances of winning the Desert Classic on the European Tour.
After playing in the pro-am, Watson said he was impressed with the condition of the Emirates course but had trouble keeping his drives on the narrow fairways.
"The rough is very tough," he said. "It is very tough to get the ball on the green from the rough. You have probably only got a one-in-seven or one-in-eight chance to get the green if you drive into the rough."
The field also includes England's Lee Westwood and Sweden's Henrik Stenson, who will be among the favorites for Sunday's $416,600 prize.

Fri, Jan. 23, 10:32 AM
- Infinera (INFN +17.7%) knocked the cover off the ball yesterday afternoon, soundly beating Q4 estimates and issuing strong Q1 guidance on the back of growing demand for its DTN-X optical transmission/switching platform for 100G deployments.
- Rival Ciena (CIEN +3.7%) and optical component vendors JDS Uniphase (JDSU +2.7%) and Finisar (FNSR +2.3%) are rallying in response. The companies followed equity markets higher yesterday after Verizon guided for its 2015 capex to be slightly above 2014 levels (contrasts with AT&T's planed capex cut).
- On its CC (transcript), Infinera said it added 10 new invoiced DTN-X customers in Q4 (3 new to Infinera altogether), raising its total to 59, and that nearly half of all DTN-X clients are now opting for the company's Instant Bandwidth rapid provisioning tech. Initial revenue for the Cloud Xpress point-to-point interconnect platform was received in December, and 8 customer commitments have been received to date.
Dec. 9, 2014, 1:52 PM
- Verizon CFO Fran Shammo has promised his company will continue growing wireless capex (albeit while cutting wireline capex) to keep up with data traffic growth. Small cells and smart antennas were mentioned as areas of interest.
- The remarks have been well-received by investors in telecom equipment and component/chip vendors, many of whom have been hit hard by soft North American and (to an extent) European spending. The Nasdaq is up 0.3%.
- Gainers: JDSU +3.6%. FNSR +3.1%. CYNI +10.1%. INFN +2.8%. CIEN +1.9%. AMCC +3.7%. PMCS +3.7%. ZHNE +3%. OCLR +5.4%. AFOP +2.8%. ADTN +2.5%. UBNT +2.2%. XXIA +1.7%. CALX +3.5%. EZCH +2.9%. SONS +2.4%. Sonus is also benefiting from a bullish Wedbush coverage launch.
- The group was pummeled in November after AT&T set a 2015 capex budget of $18B, down from 2014's $21B.
Dec. 4, 2014, 4:33 PM
- Finisar (NASDAQ:FNSR) expects FQ3 revenue of $297M-$312M and EPS of $0.23-$0.27, below a consensus of $323.9M and $0.28.
- FQ2 datacom revenue totaled $215.9M, +6% Y/Y but -10% Q/Q thanks to deckububg wireless transceiver sales and "lumpy order patterns" from several customers. Telecom revenue remained pressured by weak carrier capex, falling 6% Q/Q and Y/Y to $81.1M.
- Gross margin fell to 31.1% from 32% in FQ1 and 37.1% a year ago. Opex fell 3.1% to $67.3M.
- Low expectations - shares were down 27% YTD going into earnings - are limiting Finisar's AH drop for now.
- FQ2 results, PR, slides (.pdf)
Nov. 20, 2014, 1:38 PM
- Optical networking hardware vendors and their component suppliers are turning in a good day. The gains come a day after component vendor Oplink announced it's being acquired by Koch Industries for $445M, and will be managed by connector maker Molex (a Koch subsidiary).
- RBC thinks Koch's entrance into the slumping component industry could trigger further consolidation. "Current fab utilization rates remain low ... with optical component vendors unable to charge a premium for their innovation. Gross margins are currently weighed by competitive pressures with optical component makers willing to cut pricing to account for high fixed costs."
- The firm believes Finisar (FNSR +1%) could be a buyer, and JDS Uniphase (JDSU +1.5%) and Oclaro (OCLR +7.1%) sellers. JDS, set to spin off its component unit, is facing activist pressure to put the business on sale.
- Meanwhile, Ciena (CIEN +2.8%) announced this morning it's partnering with Avaya to offer an enterprise solution that pairs its optical networking and integrated optical/Ethernet gear with Avaya's Ethernet switches. Like peers, Ciena is trying to lower its dependence on pressured carrier capex budgets.
- Other gainers: AFOP +3.7%. NPTN +3.3%. ADTN +2.7%. INFN +1.9%.
Nov. 13, 2014, 3:28 PM
- Though Cisco is higher after beating FQ1 estimates and issuing soft FQ2 guidance, many telecom equipment and component/chip names are going in the opposite direction.
- At issue: Cisco reported a 10% Y/Y drop in service provider orders (-18% in the U.S.), while stating on its CC (transcript) it "saw dramatically reduced spend at several large U.S. service providers." The networking giant also suggested demand will remain weak during the next couple of quarters.
- The remarks came just a few days after AT&T set a 2015 capex budget of $18B (down from 2014's $21B), prompting a Monday selloff in equipment vendors and their suppliers.
- Today's decliners: ALU -3.8%. CIEN -2.8%. JDSU -3.1%. FNSR -3.7%. JNPR -1.7%. INFN -3.8%. RKUS -3.4%. ZHNE -3.2%. AMCC -4.1%. CALX -2.7%. CYNI -1.8%. ADTN -3.5%. ALLT -2.4%. FN -1.9%.
Nov. 10, 2014, 9:51 AM
- Declaring its Project VIP network expansion effort ahead of schedule, AT&T has set a 2015 capex budget of $18B, down from 2014's $21B and below a prior forecast of $20B. The figure is equal to only 13% of AT&T's 2015 revenue consensus.
- Telecom equipment and optical component makers, many of whom have already felt the effects of AT&T's subdued 2014 wireline capex, are off in early trading. CSCO -1.4%. ALU -4.8%. CIEN -6.6%. ADTN -7.8%. JNPR -2.5%. RKUS -2.1%. SONS -2.9%. FNSR -2.9%. JDSU -1.1%. RKUS -2.1%. XXIA -2%. FFIV -1.6%. ERIC -1.7%.
- Cisco delivers its FQ1 report on Wednesday. The networking giant reported an 11% Y/Y FQ4 drop in service provider orders, thanks to both weak demand and share loss.
Oct. 24, 2014, 12:32 PM
- Though Ericsson (ERIC -3%) beat Q3 estimates, the mobile infrastructure giant stated North American business activity "slowed down during the quarter as operators currently focus on cash flow optimization." It added North American spending patterns make it tough to judge near-term demand.
- Ericsson's North American sales fell 3% Y/Y to $1.93B, partly offsetting strong growth in China, India (+56%), the Middle East (+38%), and other emerging markets. Top-line figures were boosted some by M&A.
- AT&T and Verizon have been taking cautious approaches to capex, and Sprint (though investing heavily in 4G following the SoftBank deal) has been looking to cut costs under new CEO Marcelo Claure. The U.S. and Japan have been ahead of many other developed markets in ramping 4G coverage.
- Juniper (JNPR -6.3%) offered light Q4 guidance two weeks after delivering a Q3 warning, and reported its service provider sales were down 6% Y/Y due to soft demand from Asia-Pac, EMEA, and (especially) U.S. carriers.
- When the world's #2 carrier router vendor was asked on the CC (transcript) about 2015 sales, CEO Shaygan Keradpir admitted Juniper has poor near-term visibility, and that a rebound could take time. "Because we think these cycles typically take 2 to 4 quarters ... our planning assumption is that growth will return in the second half of 2015."
- Nokia and Infinera recently offered more positive numbers/commentary. Bulls have argued strong data/video traffic growth will lift capex. Bears have argued soft (if not negative) carrier revenue growth will continue pressuring spending.
- Decliners: ALU -1.6%. JDSU -2%. INFN -3.1%. CIEN -2.5%. CALX -2.5%. FNSR -1.8%. ADTN -1.5%. The Nasdaq is up 0.4%.
Oct. 15, 2014, 4:07 PM
- In an encouraging sign for beaten-down telecom equipment and chip/component stocks, Adtran (ADTN +5.7%) managed to rally even though it guided on its Q3 CC (transcript) for a low-to-mid teens Q/Q revenue drop. Consensus (doesn't appear to have fully accounted for Adtran's Q3 warning) was for revenue to drop 2% to $154.9M in Q4.
- Adtran attributed much of its Q3 weakness to "a decline in Europe as a large project there had a seasonal slowdown." Enterprise softness also took a toll.
- The company "[expects] to see an upturn in this business" in 2015, but European sales are expected to remain soft in Q4. Other equipment vendors, such as Juniper (JNPR +2%) and Ciena (CIEN +2.7%), have provided weak guidance blamed on U.S. wireline capex; AT&T is generally seen as a big culprit.
- In addition to Juniper and Ciena, many other industry names have closed with healthy gains. PKT +6.3%. INFN +3.4%. ZHNE +6.7%. ALLT +5.2%. AFOP +4.5%. AMCC +12.5%. CYNI +4%. CALX +3.3%. FNSR +3.1%. UBNT +4.2%. OPLK +3.4%. RKUS +3.3%.
Sep. 11, 2014, 9:14 AM
Sep. 11, 2014, 7:11 AM
- "Combined, the two companies might be valued at $9.85-$14.80 with a midpoint of $12.33," says RBC Capital, upgrading JDS Uniphase (NASDAQ:JDSU) to Outperform, with price target lifted to $18 from $11.
- Previously: JDS Uniphase to split into two public companies
- JDSU +12.4% premarket to $13.61; other optical networking names, Ciena (NYSE:CIEN) +0.8%, Finisar (NASDAQ:FNSR) +1.5%.
Sep. 4, 2014, 4:42 PM
- Finisar (NASDAQ:FNSR) is selling off in response to its light FQ2 guidance. However, its recent declines are serving to limit the damage.
Sep. 4, 2014, 4:20 PM
- Finisar (NASDAQ:FNSR) expects FQ2 revenue of $305M-$320M and EPS of $0.23-$0.27, below a consensus of $337.5M and $0.35.
- The company blames an expected Q/Q drop in wireless transceiver sales following a strong FQ1, along with weak carrier spending and "a decrease in demand from several datacom customers with lumpy order patterns." Several analysts have already voiced concerns (I, II) about weak near-term sales.
- FQ1 datacom revenue +31% Y/Y to $241.2M. Telecom revenue +6% to $86.4M.
- Gross margin -220 bps Q/Q and -310 bps Y/Y to 32%. FQ2 GM guidance is at 31%-32%. Opex +5.4% Y/Y to $69.4M.
- Shares are halted. Rival JDS Uniphase (NASDAQ:JDSU) is down 0.9% AH. Finisar and JDS both sold off in afternoon trading after Ciena issued soft guidance this morning, while blaming the timing of an AT&T contract.
- FQ1 results, PR, earnings slides (.pdf)
Sep. 2, 2014, 1:45 PM
- Ahead of Thursday's FQ1 report, Jefferies' James Kisner has downgraded Finisar (FNSR -6.2%) to Hold, and cut his target by $6 to $19.
- Kisner cites weak pricing for both datacom and telecom optical components, weaker-than-expected 100G datacom share, a Chinese inventory correction, Cisco/Huawei vertical integration risk (previous), and looming price pressure/share loss to startups and possibly Intel.
- Fellow component vendors JDS Uniphase (JDSU -2.2%), Oclaro (OCLR -1.7%), and Alliance Fiber (AFOP -2.3%) are also off, as is equipment vendor Ciena (CIEN -2.1%). JDS and Alliance were among the names that followed Finisar lower last Wednesday, following cautious notes from MKM and RBC.
- Jefferies raised alarm bells about AT&T's wireline capex in June, before Juniper and JDS offered soft guidance blamed on light North American capex.
- A lot has been priced in: Finisar now only trades for 9x FY16E (ends April '16) EPS exc. net cash.
Aug. 27, 2014, 12:52 PM
- Ahead of Finisar's (FNSR -3.9%) Sep. 4 FQ1 report, MKM's Michael Genovese has respectively cut his revenue and EPS estimates for the quarter by $3M and $0.01, albeit while reiterating a Buy.
- Genovese predicts "soft 2HCY14 carrier capex and the mix shift to low margin Chinese sales is likely to result in fairly anemic Telecom revenue growth and limited [gross margin] expansion in the near term." But he's still upbeat about Finisar's datacom sales (boosted by Web data center buildouts), and thinks telecom sales "should improve in 2HCY15 as the 100G Metro market positively inflects."
- Likewise, RBC's Mark Sue is reiterating an Outperform, but offering cautious remarks. "Inventories are creeping upward, inventory lead-times are decreasing and there's concern that current soft-pricing may continue or spread to higher speed products."
- Sue thinks Chinese competition is affecting pricing for "low-mid speed components," and suggests Finisar should slash capex and launch a buyback. Shares plunged in June due to light FQ1 EPS guidance that stemmed from margin pressure.
- A slew of other firms with strong telecom capex exposure are also trading lower. JDSU -1.8%. INFN -1.6%. CYNI -2.4%. AFOP -1.5%. CAVM -1.4%. ZHNE -1.6%. Juniper and multiple component vendors have already reported seeing soft near-term capex trends.
- For component vendors, a decent amount of bad news has been priced in since April.
Aug. 21, 2014, 3:59 PM
- Optical component vendors JDS Uniphase (JDSU +4.3%), Finisar (FNSR +3.4%), Oplink (OPLK +3.2%), Oclaro (OCLR +3.6%), and Alliance Fiber (AFOP +2.5%) have all rallied on a quiet day of trading, and so has client Ciena (CIEN +2.7%). No news has hit the wires to explain the gains.
- JDS, Oclaro, and Alliance Fiber all sold off in recent weeks (I, II, III) after providing disappointing guidance in their calendar Q2 reports. JDS (like Juniper following its Q2 report) observed soft North American wireline capex is pressuring industry sales.
Aug. 14, 2014, 12:06 PM
- Dan Loeb's Third Point LLC took a 7.25M-share position in Rackspace (RAX +4.3%) in Q2, along with a 3.5M-share position in Finisar (FNSR -0.2%) and a 2M-share position in InterActiveCorp (IACI +1.7%). (13F)
- Rackspace has jumped on the disclosure. The Web hosting/IaaS provider remains in the midst of a strategic review, and has been the subject of many M&A rumors.
- Finisar has ticked higher after selling off earlier in the wake of Cisco and Oclaro's reports. Shares fell yesterday in response to JDS Uniphase's guidance.
- IAC has moved slightly higher. Shares were already up following news the company has bought Ask.fm.

OMG This is my HG bronzer!!! I have an olive complexion so I have trouble finding a bronzer that isnt too orange or dark. This bronzer is pretty sheer so you can apply a little or a lot for a more bronzed look. During the winter I use it as a blush. I tan during the summer so I usually just use it as an all over shimmer. Its long lasting and easy to apply and I love the brush that comes with it!!
Have found my HG bronzer!
This product makes my face glow without looking as though I have anything on it at all. I won't leave home without it on now. It's buildable colour is lovely, darker coverage for the summer and just a subtle glow for the winter. It's not too shimmery either. I forced my boyfriend to let me try it out on him so I could see how it looked under normal light and even he looked great! Very natural and added on top of some La Praire Brightening Eye Treatment, I don't even need foundation.
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I was rather hesitant to spend so much money on a bronzer I had never tried, but I am so glad I did.
It has a subtle bronze glow that can either make you looked sunkissed or sunburned. Your pick. Just apply on with a large brush. I just love this, especially when paired with a Peach shadow it gives you a Beach Girl Look.
The shimmer quality is almost null, it only seems to exist in certain light, but it is well worth it.
This is a great bronzer! It's not matte, but is not over the top shimmery either. It was a VERY subtle glow/shimmer to it. I am NW15, and sunkissed is perfection. It doesn't turn me orange or dirty looking.
It's not too heavily pigmented so you don't end up looking streaky. My HG bronzer
Love, love, loveee this bronzer! I have it in Sunblushed, which is the middle shade. It always makes me look much better than I did before applying it! It adds a really subtle glow, but is buildable depending on how much colour/coverage you want. I have fair/medium skin, which tans easily, and I find this is the perfect natural bronzer. It has a little bit of shimmer in there, but not a huge amount to the extent that you look greasy like some bronzers do! I always try other bronzing products, but always end up coming back to this one. Not to mention, it lasts ages, and comes in lovely packaging, with the most softest bronzing brush you will ever come across!
This is my HG bronzer. I have sensitive skin and most bronzers I have tried have either caused breakouts or itchy bumps. Not with this stuff! It has a soft shimmer and the colour is perfect for my fair skin. You can layer it to make it darker or just use it to highlight your face and it always looks natural. The little brush it comes with is useless so I use my big powder/bronzer brush instead which is perfect. Another great product from Clinique!
I bought this bronzer last year, and though its doesnt irritate my sensitive skin, I have to be extremely careful when applying it. If I went over by just a little bit I could look like I just spread dirt over my cheeks. The colors is pretty but I wouldnt buy again.
I started using this product when I got in with a bonus. It is awesome. It goes on smooth, looks natural, and I am hooked. As soon as I ran out of my small sample, I bought the regular size right away. I always thought that a bronzer is a bronzer as long as the color is right, but that is not true. I think this looks so great because it goes on evenly (I usually use a bigger brush than what comes with it to apply), and is natural (I am very pale on my face because I am big into my sunscreen). Anyway, I highly recommend!
I've been using this bronzer for about a year now and I love it! The brush is of good quality and the powder goes on evenly and looks natural, not orange. It doesn't irritate my skin either... perfect!

Dane Cook Tops Least Funny Comedian List
Much like getting ripped off by your own relatives or stepping in a pile of dog feces left on the ground by your inconsiderate neighbor, there may be nothing funny about Dane Cook.
At least, that's according to the experts at Coed magazine, who list the 36-year-old, Boston-born comedian as the main offender in their "Top 10 Most Unfunny Comedians of All Time" list.
Categorizing Cook as "a cheap hack—the McDonald's of comedy," the magazine implores, him, "Please go away, Dane. Planet Earth will thank you."
Ouch! And LOL. The complete list of humorless humorists, along with abridged Coed commentary, follows below:
10. Carrot Top
"Carrot Top is so unfunny, it's a stretch to even call him a comedian."
9. Sinbad
"He's only famous because he doesn't scare white people."
8. Louie Anderson
"Listening to a fat dude wheeze about how much it sucks to be fat—boring."
7. Whoopi Goldberg
"In general, Whoopi Goldberg's audience are middle-aged soccer moms who love Walmart."
6. Richard Lewis
"All he jokes about is how much he sucks at life, which makes sense… considering how much he sucks at comedy."
5.Judy Tenuta
"Between her skin-crawl voice and embarrassingly bad act, we can't decide what we hate most."
4. Jimmy Fallon
"Our prediction: His hosting career will last one night, ending with Fallon crying himself to death from vicious self loathing and a nasty case of hair gel scalp burn."
3. Kathy Griffin
"We almost feel sorry for Kathy Griffin. But then she opens her mouth."
2. Carlos Mencia
"He steals his jokes and then re-writes them into something so offensively terrible that we become nauseated."
1. Dane Cook
"Dane Cook's existence makes this a worse world in which to live."
Now that Coed has told the world how they really feel, have a say in comments: Did they miss anyone? Did they hit anyone unfairly?

The RIBA headquarters went from strength to strength last week by holding its very first speed dating event. Speed dating, for those who don't know, is where desperate singletons spend an evening embarrassing themselves through a number of five-minute conversations in a desperate bid to convince the opposite sex that they are attractive. Astragal, fitting the 'desperate' and 'singleton' criteria perfectly, was there like a shot. Imagine the disappointment then, when the other 'datees' ...

Saturday and Sunday, March 29 and 30. At University of Tampa just over the river from downtown. I have to feed my brom addiction. Also will probably add another orchid. If you haven't been, it is very nice even if you don't buy anything. They usually have a tool sharpening booth. |

Thanks for reminding me about the tool sharpening. The guy who does that is a good friend from ages ago when we were members of the rose society. Bill and Rachel are good people. I worry about their health so keep them in your prayers. also there is a guy who sells hand made clay pots he buys from some good 'ole boys in GA. I always buy as many as I can afford/carry away! |

I'm looking for some lighting plan suggestions. I know nothing about this and am unhappy with the KD suggestions so far, so I'm going to post here. Unfortunately, I don't have an electronic version of her plan yet, but I will try to explain.
This is an overhead of the kitchen area. We have three undercabinet lights along the sink/cooktop run. How many recessed lights do we need in this space? In this perspective, you can see the area in front of the window. We may keep our dining table there, but also want to have the flexibility of moving it, so we'd like recessed there (also because of the lower ceiling, which cannot be raised) How many there? In the overhead drawing you can see the large open area -- this is going to be "extra" space we're still not sure how we are utlizing, but it needs to be lighted as well. I will try to scan the electrical drawing I was given, but I am hoping this is enough for some initial suggestions. Thanks! |

I would suggest 5" recessed fixtures with clear alzac or haze trims, c/w 75par30/Fl halogen lamps , installed on 4' centres down the middle of the kitchen space, starting 2' into the space. You will get the flexibility you want with recessed fixtures over your table, but you will have no "horizontal light" in your space, and all vertical light makes the area cave-like and causes dark shadows on your face(the way we used to put a flashlight under our chin at Halloween) You could use a semi-flush fixture over the table,and still have the ability to move the table |
