CINCINNATI, December 19, 2008 — Cintas Corporation (Nasdaq: CTAS) today reported results for its second quarter of fiscal 2009, which ended on November 30, 2008. Revenue for the second quarter was $985.2 million, a slight increase over fiscal 2008 second quarter revenue of $983.9 million. Net income of $71.8 million decreased 13% from the prior year second quarter. Diluted earnings per share were $0.47, an 11% decrease as compared to the second quarter of last fiscal year.
Scott D. Farmer, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, stated, "During this challenging business environment, many of our customers have been forced to reduce employment levels and consolidate facilities. The U.S. economy has lost approximately 2 million jobs so far this year. These reductions and consolidations have negatively impacted our revenue stream. In addition, revenue in the second quarter was negatively impacted by approximately 1% due to the impact of a weaker Canadian dollar and the September Gulf Coast hurricanes. However, we continued to demonstrate the benefit of our products and services to our existing customers and new business prospects, which enabled us to maintain our revenue as compared to last year's second quarter."
The Company's net income during the quarter was impacted as well. First, while energy costs, most notably gasoline, have come down steadily and significantly over the last three months, they remained higher as compared to last year's second quarter. Should they stay at this level, the Company will begin to see better quarter to quarter comparisons moving forward. In addition, increased medical costs, higher commodity costs, and the effects of the hurricanes lowered second quarter pre-tax income by $14.5 million. Based on current trends, the Company expects to gain some relief in these costs as it continues through its fiscal year.
In addition to those cost increases, the Company's effective tax rate for the second quarter increased to 39.4% as compared to 38.3% a year ago. While the Company's effective tax rate will fluctuate from quarter to quarter, the Company expects its effective tax rate to be approximately 37.1% for this fiscal year, which will end on May 31, 2009.
Mr. Farmer stated, "We are aggressively challenging our cost structure to meet the demands of the current economic environment. We are focused on eliminating all non-value added work throughout our organization. We define value added work as work that produces output that the customer notices and is willing to pay for. Through the application of this methodology, we expect to improve our cost structure in the future."
Cintas continues to generate strong cash flow and maintain a solid balance sheet position. Net cash provided by operations was $175 million through the second quarter and the Company's current ratio was 3.8 to 1 as of November 30, 2008. The strong cash flow and balance sheet position allowed the Company to reduce outstanding debt by approximately $80 million during the second quarter, mainly through reducing borrowings under its commercial paper program. This reduction in outstanding debt improved the Company's debt to total capitalization ratio to 27% as of the end of the quarter.
Mr. Farmer commented, "Our reaction to the current economic conditions goes beyond improving our cost structure. While our cash from operations remains strong, we are challenging all capital expenditures and have raised our return expectations on these investments. However, despite these economic conditions, our financial strength continues to provide us the ability to identify and make strategic acquisitions, when appropriate."
Given the significant uncertainties that are widespread throughout the marketplace, the Company has removed their revenue and earnings-per-share guidance for this fiscal year. The current marketplace is experiencing extremely volatile conditions, most of which are largely outside of the Company's control. To provide updated guidance at this time would require significant subjective assumptions on these volatile external conditions and require too wide of a guidance range for both revenue and earnings per share to be meaningful.
Mr. Farmer stated, "The challenges today are significant, but conditions will improve. Until they do, we will continue to aggressively manage our cost structure. Our strong cash flow and healthy balance sheet will be a great advantage to us under these circumstances. More importantly, we will continue to focus on providing our customers with exceptional service, ensuring that our products and services remain highly valued and appreciated by our customers.

NetJets China's plans to offer charter services for its growing customer base have moved one step closer, following the firm's receipt of an operating permit from the Civil Aviation Administration of China.
The company – a joint venture between the fractional ownership giant and a consortium of Chinese investors, led by private equity firm Hony Capital and Fung Investments – is hoping to receive final approval "in the next few months".
In the meantime, NetJets China says it is preparing for the start of flight operations. The Zhuhai-headquartered company says it has already purchased and imported two aircraft, which will be used for charter services "as soon as the government grants its approval".

IOWA CITY, Iowa -- More than a decade ago, Cindy Reyst sat in the Anamosa State Prison to meet with a convicted killer.
Reyst said she needed to go so that she could allow herself to forgive the man who killed her brother, Waterloo police officer Michael Hoing and his partner, officer Wayne Rice, in 1981. That man, James Michael Taylor, initially resisted the meeting before he had a change of heart and discovered he wanted to ask for her forgiveness, Reyst said.
"He actually pulled out a little poem and said, 'I read this for your family every night,'" Reyst said Wednesday. "It said, 'Let go and let God.'"
The Iowa Department of Corrections announced Wednesday that Taylor, 60, died Tuesday at the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics from natural causes due to complications from an aortic aneurysm. Taylor was serving two life sentences for the deaths of Hoing and Rice.
Reyst said she has "mixed feelings" about Taylor's death. While he's gone, the pain of her brother's death lives on.
"His prison term is over," she said. "Ours continues until the day we die. We are sentenced to live imprisonment ourselves."
Waterloo police Capt. Tim Pillack said Hoing and Rice responded to a loud party call the night of July 12, 1981. The officers returned to the residence a second time and were attacked. Taylor grabbed Rice's gun and shot the two officers.
Reyst said when she met with Taylor in 2003, he told her what happened that night. When the officers came to the residence a second time, a man hit Rice over the head with a chair, knocking him out. Taylor was then able to get Rice's gun and use it to shoot Hoing two or three times. Taylor then shot Rice "point blank," Reyst said. Hoing died shortly after midnight on July 13.
Pillack said Taylor fled and a manhunt was launched. He left Waterloo in a car that was found abandoned in LaPorte City, Pillack said. He was apprehended after police got a tip he was hiding in an abandoned house.
"We found him in a bean field," Pillack said. "We caught him on Friday, July 17."
Dave Hoing, Michael Hoing's brother, said he didn't know how to feel about Taylor's death.
"I don't hate the guy, I gave up on that a long time ago," said Hoing, who still lives in Waterloo. "I can't say I'm going to miss him, either. I don't know what to feel about it."
Hoing said Taylor reached out to him after Reyst went to see him in prison and asked to meet with him. Hoing turned down the request.
"As I told him in the letter, I'm really just better off if I don't think about it," Hoing said. "I told him I didn't hate him. I just didn't want to think about him."
Like his sister, Dave Hoing said he's still not sure how to feel about Taylor's death.
"I don't know what to think about it," he said. "I'm not relieved. I'm not sad."

CORALVILLE, Iowa - Hy-Vee Inc. is going through the planning process of locating another store in the Coralville/North Liberty area.
The Ankeny-based grocery chain received approval June 19 from the Coralville Board of Adjustment for two requested changes to parking requirements for a store and car wash at Coral Ridge Avenue and Forevergreen Road.
Hy-Vee, which operates a store at 1914 Eighth St. in Coralville and three stores in Iowa City, owns the proposed location. The preliminary plat has been approved by the Coralviille City Council and the city's planning and zoning department.
Hy-Vee, should it open a store at Coral Ridge Avenue and Forevergreen Road, would be competing with a Fareway store in North Liberty and the Super Walmart in Coralville.
Hy-Vee has said the Coral Ridge Avenue and Forevergreen Road location was chosen to serve the growth in the Coralville-North Liberty area.

Service drop
|This article needs additional citations for verification. (August 2011)
In electric power distribution, a service drop is an overhead electrical line running from a utility pole, to a customer's building or other premises. It is the point where electric utilities provide power to their customers.[1] The customer connection to an underground distribution system is usually called a "service lateral". Conductors of a service drop or lateral are owned and maintained by the utility company.
At the customer's premises, the wires usually enter the building through a weatherhead that protects against entry of rain and snow, and drop down though conduit to an electric meter which measures and records the power used for billing purposes, then enters the main service panel. The utility's portion of the system ends, and the customer's wiring begins, at the output socket of the electric meter. The service panel will contain a "main" fuse or circuit breaker, which controls all of the electric current entering the building at once, and a number of smaller fuses/breakers, which protect individual branch circuits. There is always a main shutoff switch to turn off all power; when circuit breakers are used this is provided by the main circuit breaker.
North American[edit]
In North America and countries that use their system, the 120/240V split phase system is used. A pole-mounted distribution transformer usually provides power for one or two residences. The service drop is made up of two 120 volt lines and a neutral line. When these lines are insulated and twisted together, they are referred to as a triplex cable which may contain a supporting messenger cable in the middle of the neutral conductor to provide strength for long spans. The neutral line from the pole is connected to an earth ground near the service panel; often a conductive rod driven into the earth. The service drop provides the building with two 120 volt lines of opposite phase, so 240 volts can be obtained by connecting a load between the two 120 volt conductors, while 120 volt loads are connected between either of the two 120 volt lines and the neutral line. 240 volt circuits are used for high-power devices, such as air conditioners, clothes dryers, ovens and boilers, while 120 volt circuits are used for lighter loads such as lighting and ordinary small appliance outlets.
In many European countries and other countries that use their systems, three phase service drops are often used for domestic residences. Using three phase power allows longer service drops to serve multiple residences, which is economical with the higher density of housing in Europe. Several slightly different voltage standards have been used: 220Y380, 230Y400 and 240Y415, with plans for future "harmonization" towards 230Y400. The service drop consists of three phase wires and a neutral wire which is grounded. Each phase wire provides around 230 volts to loads connected between it and the neutral. Each of the phase wires carries 50 Hz alternating current which is 120° out of phase with the other two. Other countries, such as the UK and Eire, generally provide a single phase and neutral per house, with every third house on the same phase. In this case the available current is higher. Single phase supplies with a supplier's fuse of up to 100A are common, while the 3 phase domestic supplies are generally of lower current rating (often less than 50A) per phase.
Commercial and industrial[edit]
Commercial and industrial service drops can be much bigger, and are usually three phase. In the USA, common services are 120Y/208 (three 120V circuits 120 degrees out of phase, with 208V line to line), 240V three phase, and 480V three phase. 600V three phase is common in Canada, and 380-415V or 690V three phase is found in many other countries. Generally, higher voltages are used for heavy industrial loads, and lower voltages for commercial applications.
Service conductors for a customer may be run underground, from a padmount transformer to a customer's meter.

Foreigners believe zebras and elephants roam the streets of Africa. Not hard to believe when the buffalo driving the taxi cuts you off and the lion comes charging down the corridor to attack you in your office. By the end of the week one almost feels as though you've been trampled by a stampede. Relieve the African stress and pressure the African way with a full body massage at Mmathibedi Eco Spa for R99.
For an extra R50, or 'lion note' if you're already in the African spirit, you can trade your holistic massage for a hot stone therapy massage. However first you should know that a holistic massage might be just what you need to relieve the pressure of feeding a two-year old, baking for the church bazaar, picking up after the man you've been married to for 18 years and dealing with the Jones' issue. Yes, that's how tailored-to-you this massage is. However the relaxing and healing benefits of hot smooth lava stones are no less relaxing than the fragrant oils and deeply relaxing techniques of a full body massage.
Experience the relaxing benefits of African techniques, remedies, hot African stones, African décor and strong African fingers in the tranquillity of Mmathibedi Eco Spa. The name Mmathibedi originates from deep within the mountains of Ga Matlala A Thaba in Limpopo and means Mother Protector or Main Protector. Just like Mmathibedi Spa is the main protector of the environment, the spa is also dedicated to treating the 'main protectors' of every household to some much needed TLC.
Mmathibedi pride themselves on the fact that everything about the spa is natural – from the products used for treatments and the eco-friendly containers they come in right down to the décor and the warm smiles of the therapists. Hence, by getting a massage at Mmathibedi, not only are you doing your body and mind a favour, you're really helping to save the world.
African fact: In the olden days, when shooting African films, directors would use scraps of blonde hair from local hair salons for the savannah grass. However this stopped in 1896 when Jenny, the girl in the lion costume, got tangled up in the grass, knocking against the fake baobab tree and sending the leopard guy tumbling to the ground. The leopard sued the studio for thousands.

Tennessee Cave Art Charts Cosmology Of Prehistoric Peoples
The focus of a recent article in the journal Antiquity is on some of the oldest art yet found in North America… and it's in Tennessee.
Archaeologists, starting with Charles Faulkner from the University of Tennessee, have been documenting prehistoric rock art in Tennessee and around the Southeastern US since the1970s.
Jan Simek, Distinguished Professor of Anthropology at the University of Tennessee, is now continuing that work. He says the rock art found in the dark zones of some Tennessee caves is among the continent's earliest art. Simek also says it reveals aspects of the cosmological beliefs of the prehistoric people who made this art…

Gossip Girl Speculation: What's Charlie's Deal?
We've been suspicious of this Charlie (Kaylee DeFer) person from the beginning. No one in Gossip Girl world is that nice. She has to be hiding something — which is why we were relieved to learn that something big and bad happened to made her drop out of college.
So what's Charlie's secret? A few theories:
She attempted suicide. This would explain why her mom says someone needs to keep an eye on her. Also, it's kind of a family tradition. She and Eric (Connor Paolo) could bond over their fave antidepressants.
She's planning to Single White Female Serena (Blake Lively). This is usually Jenny's (Taylor Momsen) play, but since she's gone, someone needs to be seethingly jealous of Serena and blonde enough to dress up as her. Given the ecstasy on Charlie's face as she slipped into Serena's Louboutins, Charlie's well on her way.
She killed someone. Also kind of a family tradition.
She caused the oil spill. Hey, it would explain why she wanted to get out of the Gulf.
She's back next week! Enjoy a preview of "Petty in Pink" here:

Local Girl Scouts will soon begin their annual cookie sales again. Quiana Steele, new Daisy troop leader, said her girls, ages 5 and 6, will have booths set up all around Valley City.
"The opening day (Feb. 9) we'll be at the basketball game" at Valley City State University, and a booth will be set up at one of the grocery stores in Valley City.
"The girls are allowed to go door-to-door to sell the cookies, so you'll probably see a lot of that coming up," Steele said.
Eight varieties of cookies will be available Feb. 9 through March 6, including favorites Thin Mints, Caramel deLites and Peanut Butter Patties, and also a new flavor called Mango Creams.
"It's natural fused, which means there's lots of healthy things in it — they're really good," Steele said.
Customers can go to www.gsdakotahorizons.org and click on the Cookie Shop link to find a searchable listing of the nearby Cookie Shops or call the Cookie Hotline at (800) 666-2141.
Tami Haug-Davis, CEO of Girl Scouts—Dakota Horizons, said in a press release, "Each box of cookies sold helps young girls build leadership skills, learn goal setting, decision making and money management."
The Girl Scout Cookie program teaches girls how to manage money and become community leaders. Proceeds from the sale stay in the Girl Scout community where they are purchased.
Steele said the cookies are the main way the girls earn money to purchase badges and go on trips. The cookie sales help the girls in accounting, money skills, business skills and communication skills, she said.
The girls have incentives to sell cookies.
"If you reach a certain goal, you get to pick a prize they have on the listing," Steele said. "All the girls get a badge for participating in the cookie sale, and they give out general recognition for the girl in the troop for selling the most."

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. - Saleumsak Khammungkhune, 57, of San Diego, and David Johnson, a/k/a Ukoha Eke, 39, a Nigerian national residing in Upper Marlboro, Md., were arrested and charged in a criminal complaint with conspiracy to impersonate U.S. officers and with wire fraud, following an investigation by the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR).
ICE special agents arrested Johnson in Greenbelt, Md., on May 13, and Khammungkhune on May 15. On May 17, Khammungkhune appeared in federal court in West Palm Beach and a bond hearing is set for May 24. Johnson appeared in federal court in Greenbelt on May 14 and was ordered detained pending trial.
According to court documents, the defendants posed as U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officers and contacted victims through the Internet. The defendants told the victims that $10 million had arrived for them from Nigeria, but that they had to pay U.S. Customs duties and fees to obtain the money. Through this "advance fee" scheme, the defendants defrauded two victims out of approximately $300,000.
This case is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Kerry S. Baron.
A criminal complaint is only an accusation and each defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty.

New Inter Milan boss Rafael Benitez has insisted comparisons with predecessor Jose Mourinho were wide of the mark. Benitez was today unveiled as the new Inter boss following his departure from Liverpool and Mourinho's switch to Real Madrid.
The Spaniard is hoping to maintain the Nerazzurri's recent success after Mourinho led them to the Serie A, Coppa Italia and UEFA Champions League treble last season. But he is adamant his approach will differ to that of the Portuguese.
"I don't think I am the anti-Mourinho but I am different," he said. "I am a coach who likes winning, who likes playing good football, though, so I don't think we are different in that."
Benitez was delighted to have landed at Inter after a difficult end to his six-year spell at Anfield. He added: "The main idea of Inter and of Italy is that you breathe football. You breathe football and I like that. The club is a great one and we will try to do everything possible to be the best."
Benitez faces a daunting task in following in Mourinho's footsteps but he is confident that it is the start of an "historic period" for the club and he knows the players must maintain their winning mentality.
"Inter are coming off an almost perfect year. I want the footballers not to lose the desire to win. I want to keep that winning mentality and I think I can," said Benitez.
"I'm happy to have top-class players. The difficulty will be keeping this level but we can do that. I think the level is high and if we can keep that winning spirit I think we can do well. If the players can do the same again this year, for two more years or even more....it will be an historic period for the club."
Mourinho was often criticised for a lack of attractive football. And, while Benitez claims his aim is to entertain on the pitch, he insists trophies come first.
He said: "I think that's a difficult question. What's good football for you? For me? For our fans? We all know that in England you play a more direct game, Spain is more about short passes. Here we play differently to Spain, what's better?
"The mentality is always to win playing well and playing well depends on the players you have. I have the mentality of winning playing good football. I think the players are good and they like playing good football. We'll try to win playing good football but what's most important is winning."
Speculation is rife that Benitez will raid Liverpool for his former players. The 50-year-old remained tight-lipped on possible transfer targets, though, insisting his first aim is to get to know the players already at the San Siro.
"I've only been here two days," said Benitez. "It's important to talk about important players, and there will be time for that. I will try to buy good players, of a good level who will suit a top level club but I can't say their names. Good players.
"I don't talk about players of other teams. We have to analyse the future and then we will decide what player we want. It's always difficult to improve something that has worked so well.
"We are analysing everything, I think we can do it but I prefer to work calmly now in the club and then think of other things. I'm very happy to be here. Very happy and very proud."
Benitez is looking to get off to the best possible start in Italy as there are immediately two trophies up for grabs in the Italian and European Supercups and the Spaniard is going to be demanding the most of his new players.
He continued: "We have the possibility to win six trophies this year. I have that experience because with Liverpool we faced the European Supercup and the Community Shield quickly after each other.
"We have to work hard because there are hard battles waiting for us in August," he said. "I like working hard, like working with players, like being a teacher. I like pushing the players because that way they learn. That could be positive or a defect because sometimes players get angry."

Baroud tours the AUB campus. (The Daily Star/Hasan Shaaban)
BEIRUT: The fourth annual civic and volunteering fair organized by the American University of Beirut attracted dozens of NGOs and enthusiastic students Wednesday to partner in developing a stronger spirit of volunteering and community service in the country.
Lined up in rows from AUB's West Hall to Bliss Hall, representatives of NGOs were displaying their work and willingness to engage with students in various fields.
The event has garnered support on and off the AUB campus, especially following the 2008 establishment of the Center for Civic Engagement and Community Service, which seeks to promote a culture of service and civic excellence in the AUB community.
This year's fair at AUB focused on the themes of green initiatives in power-generating, recycling, reusing resources and sustainability, as well as some of the challenges that consecutive Lebanese governments have failed to address effectively in the past decade.
In an opening ceremony at West Hall, CCECS director Mounir Mabsout, dean of student affairs Talal Nizameddin and AUB Provost Ahmad Dallal praised civic engagement among AUB students.
Former Interior Minister and civil society activist Ziyad Baroud gave a keynote speech, calling on students to be active members of society.
"There was a time when politics used to flourish at the level of academia, but today campuses have sometimes become a reflection of the political class, and it is unfortunate that the political class has gained great influence over academia," said Baroud.
"But I still believe that the so-called intelligentsia can still impact Lebanese politics and politicians."
Baroud, who served as interior minister from 2008 to 2011, said social media has significantly changed the way people participate in civic engagement in recent years.
According to Baroud, crowdsourcing – or outsourcing activities to a network of people, both on and offline – as encouraged by AUB and NGOs in community service demonstrates the effectiveness of this approach.
"AUB, by creating this center [CCECS], has been sending a strong message of commitment that the university is in the heart of our society, it understands and feels its needs and it also has a vision through professors' and students' aspirations," said Baroud.
"Crowdsourcing offers solutions to the low voter turnout in elections and improves civic engagement," he added.

WATERLOO, Iowa - Operation Threshold officials are warning residents of possible fraudulent activity in regard to Operation Thaw.
The agency in a news release said it has received reports of contractors claiming to be with Operation Thaw and offering to thaw resident's pipes. The resident would then be reimbursed for the work.
But Operation Thaw doesn't go door to door offering to thaw pipes, according to the executive director.
Clients contact the agency, get approved, and then are given a list of approved contractors, said Barbara Grant. The client selects a contractor, Operation Threshold authorizes the work, and then pays the contractor directly, she said.
Residents with questions about Operation Thaw should call (319) 292-1868.

Oktibbeha County and Starkville supporters of the Democratic party gathered Saturday at Moncrief Park to show support for their candidates running in November's elections.
Rally in the Park's featured speaker, Albert N. Gore, is running for United States Senate against Republican incumbent Roger Wicker. Gore said his main goals if elected are to preserve such federal programs as Medicaid, Medicare and Social Security and to eliminate corporate interest from government business.
"I think one of the biggest problems we have right now, especially in this election, is that outside money is killing everybody," Gore said.
He referenced the recent passage of a bill that gives businesses a larger income tax credit when they pay inventory taxes as detrimental to the state's economy.
"Think of who is going to take up the slack. You and I are. This is one of the things that is killing the economy in this state," he said.
Gore said he intends to be accessible to the people of Mississippi and not to lobbyists.
" I will be available for calls from constituents only. That's everybody — Republicans, Democrats, Independents, the whole group, (but) I will not be spending any time with lobbyists," he said. "I will be a senator for Mississippi. I will not be a senator from Mississippi."
He also spoke on the passage of the Affordable Care Act.
"What's called Obamacare or the Affordable Health Care Act, this is fine — It just doesn't go far enough. I think it should cover everybody," Gore said. "Some would say that's socialized medicine — It's not. It's so our people can have the proper medical care, especially preventative care."
Democratic supporter Everlyn Johnson said she attended Rally in the Park to support Gore and the re-election of U.S. President Barack Obama.
"I know the president had a deep hole to dig from, and I think he's done a good job of getting us out of it. I know we've got a long way to go, but I still believe in what he's trying to accomplish," Johnson said. "I just hope he can be given four more years to complete his work."
She said Gore is a leader who would represent Mississippi well in the Senate.
"He said the president needs that extra vote. (The U.S. Senate party composition) is really close, and he said that is one of the things that inspired him to run. There are people who thought his age and seniority may be a stumbling block, but I don't think so," she said. "He's experienced a lot in his life. He knows exactly what he wants and how to get it. I would like to see him be elected to the Senate to help get some things done and help alleviate the gridlock."

Rejecting the toxic plague: WAR ON PLASTIC
by Jan Lundberg
Northern Californians Against Plastic
new report: plastics additive of great toxicity: deca-BDE
Plastic as toxic trash is barely an issue with health advocates, environmentalists, and even those of us looking toward the post-petroleum world. Instead, "recycling" and future "bioplastics" distract people from keeping plastic out of their lives. As the evidence from our trashed oceans and damage to human health mounts, plastic can no longer be conveniently ignored. The days of naive trust and denial need to be put behind us, and a war on plastics declared now.

In 1968, at the age of 83, she visited Australia to thank the authorities for the honorable treatment of her son's remains. One of the tokens of gratitude she presented was a hand-written poem that is kept at the Memorial's Research Centre.

AMD Radeon HD 7650M: Based on the same chip as the Radeon HD 6650M but with slower core clock. 480 Shader and 128 bit DDR3 interface.
Modern games should be playable with these graphics cards at low settings and resolutions. Casual gamers may be happy with these cards.
» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Graphics Cards and the corresponding Benchmark List.
Intel Core i7: The Intel Core i7 for laptops is based on the LG1156 Core i5/i7 CPU for desktops. The base clock speed of the CPUs is relatively low, but because of a huge Turbo mode, the cores can dynamically overclock to up to 3.2 GHz (920XM). Therefore, the CPU can be as fast as high clocked dual-core CPUs (using single threaded applications) but still offer the advantage of 4 cores. Because of the large TDP of 45 W / 55 W, the CPU is only intended for large laptops.
3632QM: An Ivy Bridge-based quad-core processor clocked at 2.2 GHz with Turbo Boost support up to 3.2 GHz. Offers an integrated HD Graphics 4000 GPU and a dual channel DDR3 memory controller. The speciality of the i7-3632QM is the low TDP of 35 Watt compared to 45 Watt of the other Ivy Bridge quad core CPUs (e.g. 3610QM).» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.
17.3": Meanwhile the 17 inch display size is a more frequently offered standard format for desktop-replacements. The DTR-laptops can't be carried easily, need much energy but on the other side texts can be read easily and high resolutions are no problem. DTR mainly are intended for stationary usage on desks, where the weight and the energy need are unimportant.
» To find out how fine a display is, see our DPI List.
3.2 kg: This weight is average for notebooks. Therefore the numerous mass of laptops with 15 inch display fits in this class of weight.
Sony: Sony Corporation is a multinational conglomerate corporation headquartered in Japan. Sony is one of the leading manufacturers of electronics, video, communications, video game consoles, and information technology products for the consumer and professional markets. Its name is derived from sonus, the Latin word for sound. The company was founded 1946 with another name and renamed in 1958. Sony Corporation is the electronics business unit and the parent company of the Sony Group, which is engaged in business through its five operating segments—electronics, games, entertainment (motion pictures and music), financial services and other. Sony is a notebook manufacturer of medium size according international market shares.
80%: This rating is not convincing. The laptop is evaluated below average, this is not really a recommendation for purchase.

YouTube has certainly become a popular platform for artists to reach new fans and gain bigger followings. However, with so many aspiring artists, it can be hard to find the diamonds in the rough. Fortunately, people found their way to Jake Shimabukuro's video, which went viral.
The video of him sitting in Central Park and strumming away on his instrument of choice—the ukulele—has reached over 9 million views.
Shimabukuro's playing is no longer limited to small cafes and Central Park. He will be zigzagging the United States, with performances kicking off on Oct. 22 in Honolulu and then taking him coast to coast and back several times, all the way through the spring.
He lands in New York City on Nov. 15 at the Highline Ballroom. The talented musician will play songs from his recent release, "Peace Love Ukulele." He has performed on television shows such as "The Late Show With Conan O'Brien" and "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" and at the TED (Technology, Entertainment, Design) Conference.
Shimabukuro's music might be best explained as an updated indie version of traditional ukulele playing. There are influences from jazz, rock, folk, and classical all meshed together and emerging from the four strings.
Probably his most well-known song is a cover of the Beatles song written by George Harrison, "While My Guitar Gently Weeps," the same song that he plays in the popular YouTube clip in Central Park's Strawberry Fields. Shimabukuro turns the song into a dreamy and harmonic instrumental, stripping the song down to its soul with heart-tugging finger picking and powerful chords.
Even more interesting might be how the musician puts down so much of his own soul in what he plays. Cover songs get a distinct flavor of their own when Shimabukuro interprets them. Video recordings of his performances show him playing with closed eyes, and with a look that makes you believe that he is feeling every note his instrument lets out.
Truly, the ukulele might seem like an unusual instrument to build a career off. But for the Hawaiian-born musician, learning to play was not that far of a stretch. The ukulele is a traditional Hawaiian instrument, and it had an upswing in popularity during the 1990s thanks to internationally known artist Israel Kamakawiwo'ole (famous for his ukulele renditions of "Over the Rainbow" and "What a Wonderful World").
Now Shimabukuro is making the music current and up-to-date once again with not only his beautiful takes on known songs but also his own creations.
His new album "Peace Love Ukulele" includes some of both. Queen fans will recognize the title "Bohemian Rhapsody," which has gotten itself a ukulele makeover, and also Leonard Cohen's hauntingly beautiful "Hallelujah" is covered.
The album, debuting at No. 1 on the Billboard World Album Chart, is a good representation of Shimabukuro's style. Even though the songs are varied in style, from feel-good to slower and melancholic to fast paced and rock inspired, they all have the same foundation. All of these songs prove to be very soothing, letting the listener hear the emotion in between the finger picking and the chords.If you like beautiful melodies, enjoy acoustic music with a twist, and are curious about the ukulele, make sure to pick up Shimabukuro's album, or better yet see him live, to get a taste of a fresh take on contemporary Hawaiian music.

I Feel Invisible
Well, not me. My daughter. The tween. Says she feels invisible at school. While driving…
The other morning, beginning my week, I woke up to this lovely note by our coffee maker …
I am not sure if the three little hearts at the bottom of this note were meant to make me smile? You see, I woke up with my kids before school, the worse time of day to not have a big ole cup of coffee. I was sad. Bummed. I may have even pouted.
A new coffee machine, even a cheap one, just wasn't in our budget until his payday either, so all week we went without coffee. Okay my fiance didn't go without because he is able to drink .. gasp .. instant coffee. Gag me with a spoon! I cannot handle instant coffee, but rather had hot tea all week long.
I survived. Now it's end of week and I am ready for a coffee machine, just a cheap cheap coffee machine, whatever we can afford that gets that coffee caffeine flowing into my blood stream for a long weekend with my kiddos!
I've gone a week without, treacherous, isn't it???
Cheers to a new coffee machine!
oooooh that stinks! Here's to you getting some coffee soon. Can you buy some coffee sticks to get you through the week?
I am not a coffee drinker but I would have figured out a way to boil and filter my own coffee…. The old fashioned way. I have had to do it before for my Hubs when our electric was off.
That is my personal nightmare. I cannot function with my coffee in the morning!
Luckily, I'm not a coffee drinker, but I know what it's like to be out of something for a few days. It's like torture!
I am not a coffee drinker, so I am not personally familiar, but almost everyone I know drinks coffee and loves it and could not live without it…… I am sure it was a nightmare. Hope you got your new coffeemaker and it works great!
I would cry. Seriously. Good thing I have 3 Dunkin Donuts within a mile of my house, though!!
I am SO sorry you had to go without coffee! I would have just withered! My kids joke that they know not to talk to Mommy before the first cup.
I would feel the same way if someone told me my toaster was broken! LOL. I use my toaster almost every day.
Just reading this post frightens me! I must.make.a.coffee!
I actually laughed when I saw this. It would set my husband over the edge and there is no way he would leave smiley faces. Luckily my in-laws live next door so there's always extra coffee!
I don't drink coffee but if our coffee maker broke my husband would be DEVASTATED. As a matter of fact, I think if it broke he would actually move Heaven and Earth to get a new one lol
I hate going without coffee! My kids hats me without it took think! Good luck!
I'm not a coffee drinker, but we've had a broken blender in our house and I've been known to have one shipped overnight (or we rush out to get a replacement, if we can't borrow one from my mom.) We make a lot of mixed drinks…and smoothies. Yes. Lots of smoothies.
ACK! Both my husband and I wouldn't survive!
Oh, no! Good luck on getting your new coffee machine!
At least you got a note? Lol! They could have left it for you to try it yourself!
you need to learn to brew coffee sans a maker!! boiling water poured over coffee in a filter will work. its how we brewed coffee for 25 years out on our home on diamond island on lake winnipesaukee (no electricity). it CAN be done.
I grew up with instant coffee and wouldn't touch it now, either We have a percolator, but also one of those Bodum coffee pot things that goes on the stovetop, so if one doesn't work, luckily there's a back-up!
That would suck! Glad you made it through the week in tact.
I haven't tried it yet but have heard great things about icoffee. If you find the funds definitely check it out.
I'd probably be lost without my microwave. The coffeemaker wouldn't even phase me, but I feel sorry for you! lol
I don't do coffee, but my husband does. I know when we're out, it's a bad day for him!
My hubby could not survive without the coffee. I have my tea kettle. lol
I can relate. I ran out last night in the snow to get coffee… You're not alone. Haha!
Oh my – I couldn't do it! I would be counting couch cushion change to find a local Dunkin Donuts! LOL
Haha! I feel your pain– I'm not a coffee drinker but I love my tea and if my tea kettle broke, I wouldn't know what to do
Oh I feel your pain. If that happened to me I don't know what I'd do. I need mine especially for the weekend. I use Starbucks during the week but gotta have my coffee pot.
I'm not a coffee drinker, but I feel your pain. Enjoy the hunt for a new coffee machine!

LINUS PAULING was the century's best known chemist. Born in 1901, he was famous not only for his chemistry but also for his attempts to prevent nuclear war, his concern over the effects of radioactive fallout and with other political and social problems. A wizard of enormous energy, he died last year. Tom Hager's Force of Nature looks like being the definitive biography.
Linus Pauling's one-time student, David Harker, the protein crystallographer, asked Pauling how he got such a large number of good ideas. Pauling replied that he just took all his ideas and threw away the bad ones. In fact, Pauling's life was characterised by the way he handled his good ideas, but perhaps he did not throw away quite enough.
To have ideas you have to have facts and information to have ideas about, and to filter theories you need structured facts. Pauling had an excellent memory and ...

A searchable database of project activity in the global hydrocarbon processing industry
Engineers and designers are highly skilled individuals. Forcing them to enter design changes using tables, forms and spreadsheets is unproductive and uneconomical, and it increases the likelihood of human error—this is the way that most instrumentation software systems currently work. For too long, software vendors have denied engineers and designers the simple practicality of a graphical visual engineering interface with "drag and drop" capability and inbuilt intelligence, ensuring changes are automatically replicated into all the associated data and databases.
Will previously-planned downstream investments be cut back in 2015 due to lower global oil prices?

By MATT CRANE
Greater Starkville Development Partnership officials announced format changes to this year's Christmas parade, which begins 6 p.m. on Nov. 26.
GSDP Chief Operating Officer and Vice President of Tourism Development Jennifer Gregory said the primary requirement of parade participants this is year is every float must be decorated to fit the parade's Polar Express theme.
"In the past, organizations and businesses have worked hard to put together floats, but some might not have decorations at all," she said. "It took away from the atmosphere and appeal of the Christmas parade."
Gregory said along with tighter decoration guidelines, the GSDP will limit the number of walking units during the parade in an effort to encourage more participation and parade appeal for the festivities.
"This year we are encouraging and requiring all organizations to ride in — and decorate — the float unless they are a marching band, dance club or another unit that makes sense for them to walk," she said. "For instance, the Relay for Life team will be decorating a float that portrays our theme, but they will also have cancer survivors walking in front because that's the essence of what they do."
Gregory said she is hopeful these changes will inspire the a greater cohesiveness for the parade.
"We feel like these changes will enhance the festivity of the event," she said. "We want to make it a memorable event and get back to that old tradition of having a community Christmas parade."
Gregory said with approximately 20 participants currently registered to attend, the GSDP is encouraging organizations and business to be a part of this special community event.
"Applications are due Friday by 5 p.m. at the GSDP offices," she said. "Anyone needing a registration form can download one from http://www.visit.starkville.org."
Gregory said roads will be begin closing at 4 p.m. on Nov. 26 with participants lining up at 5 p.m. to begin the parade at 6 p.m.
"We'll have the same route as last year," she said. "The parade will start on Russell Street then head down Lampkin, turning up on Montgomery before heading west on Main Street and ending at First United Methodist Church."
Gregory said a rain date is scheduled for Tuesday, Nov. 27.
Gregory said WOBV Channel 5 will record the parade to be played throughout the holiday season with the new addition of a live online stream.
"We love working with the TV station and we are so appreciative of their efforts in documenting the parade," she said. "The live stream will be great so people that are elderly, disabled or can't come out will have the opportunity to participate."
Gregory said she looks forward to a wonderful crowd for the parade and is excited to continue this Starkville tradition.
"The Christmas parade has been going on for many years in Starkville," she said. "It's a favorite tradition of many in the community and we're getting to celebrate that community and the holiday season."

I am a very open minded individual. I have a vast range of interests. I enjoy working with my hands and being as self sufficient as possible. My profession is in the construction industry, I am a pipe fitter. I take a lot of pride in my work and the quality of it. I am a native to San Diego. I recently bought a house in Jamul on 20 acres and spend a lot of my free time working on it. I enjoy being outdoors, but the remodel project has left me with little time to go out and be social.
