Venture Right: Our Guiding Philosophy
Great venture capital investing requires the ability to see opportunity where others see challenge. Company builders, market experts and excellent board members are words that describe venture done "right." These are words that describe Menlo Ventures.
How do we know? We asked our entrepreneurs, limited partners and many others in our ecosystem what makes us stand out. They told us it's how we work with our entrepreneurs. We're straight shooters. We have their back – even when times get tough.
We are more than partners. We are allies.
Venture investing is all about discovery and partnership, transforming vision into reality.
We know this well. We've had decades of successful exits—70 public companies and more than 100 mergers and acquisitions since 1976. Plus, entrepreneurs keep coming back to us—20 CEOs in our current portfolio are serial entrepreneurs. And 90% of our founders were in place at the time of exit. That's a number that few other firms can match.
When we commit, we go all-in, serving on our companies' boards with unparalleled dedication and passion. In fact, our board counsel is Menlo's number one added value, our entrepreneurs tell us. They appreciate our decades of experience: our partners who are engineers, patent holders, company founders, and thought leaders with great connections.
Entrepreneurs have tons of venture capitalists to choose from. They choose Menlo because of how we do business.
We don't just invest.
We bring time, energy and passion.

Drug-free urine samples submitted by world sprint champion Katrin Krabbe and two of her German teammates came from the same person, the German athletics federation confirmed Sunday.
The federation, however, called for further investigation into the apparent drug-test tampering before making a final decision on whether to ban the athletes from competition. It also invited the three to appear before its legal committee to discuss the incident.
"We're not guilty," Krabbe said Sunday. "Others did the manipulation."
Said Dr. Manfred Donike, a leading authority on doping in sports: "All three urine tests came from the same person. I cannot say at this time from whom."
The federation said it would take up the issue in the next few days and could ban Krabbe, Grit Breuer and Silke Moeller from competition for up to four years. Falsifying drug tests carries the same penalty as testing positive for banned substances under International Amateur Athletic Federation rules.

So often, Deona Smith would attend conferences around town but found she was one of only a few African-American women there.
She loved all the knowledge and experiences she acquired but wished more minority women could benefit.
Most conferences are held during the workday, when many black women cant get off from work, or dont feel empowered to ask for time off.
So Smith got to thinking.
What about a day to honor all women, especially women of color? Women tend to be nurturers and the caregivers. They look out for everyone else.
But its time for them to focus on themselves, Smith said.
So Saturday is that day; Sister Summit 2012 is the event. And Smith is waiting with door prizes, including a weekend for two at the Sanctuary on Kiawah Island.
Take charge of finances
Smith, publisher of Living Roots Magazine, hopes hundreds come to the event at 11 a.m. at Trident Techs Conference Center, Building 920, on Rivers Avenue. The cost is $10. For more info, visit www.SisterSummit.com.
The conference focuses primarily on black women but is open to all women, she said.
There is something for every woman, with tips on everything from finances to beauty, entrepreneurship to personal development, career to parenting, and health and wellness.
Locally, Jennet Robinson Alterman of the Center for Women will talk about empowerment, teaching women to not be afraid to stand up for themselves.
Dr. Paula Orr, OB-GYN, of Charleston Womens Wellness Center, will talk about womens health; certified Pastry Chef Kimberly Brock Brown will focus on healthy cooking and how to make substitutes and still enjoy Gullah foods.
Dorothea Bernique, founder of Increasing H.O.P.E. Financial Training Center in North Charleston, will encourage women to take charge of their finances because a man is not a financial plan.
Women often leave finances to men, Smith said. Bernique will explain why they need to know how to pay the bills and where their money is.
Other speakers include Hollywood writer and Lowcountry native Vanessa Middleton; actress CeeCee Michaela of the TV show Girlfriends; Gullah storyteller Anita Singleton-Prather aka Aunt Pearlie Sue; Elder Lynette Green of Magic 107.3; and Star 99.7 radio personality Geno Jones.
A great idea
The Summit offers exhibits from area businesses, because women make 85 percent of all household buying decisions, and businesses need to consider that, Smith said.
Because women are always juggling family and work, a day set aside for them is a great idea. It provides a breather for them to come together and share ideas.
It also dispels the myth that women cant play in the same sandbox, Smith said.
The summit is Smiths way of helping others her sisters, if you will. We all can take a lesson from her.

Can you play the new nano FM radio through these speakers?
I ask because it says you have to have the headphones attached to get the FM radio to work (as the wire to the headphones is the FM antenna) so I am assuming this means that if you plug the nano into the B&W speakers (or indeed any other docking station speakers) that you wont be able to hear the radio over them?
I have an ipod classic so that wont give me the radio option as it doesnt take Apps but would like to have a radio option that is not dependent on internet access (as is the case with the ipod touch radio App).

Bowers & Wilkins Zeppelin Air Speakers with 30-Pin Connector

Best Answer:
Nope, I've been looking for a way to have FM radio playing on my Zeppelin Air, but none found zo far.
When docking the iPod nano, you can't get it to play Radio. Headphone connector is on the same side as the dock connector so it won't fit. Even if you get it to fit, it will just say it doesn't have an antenna.
Maybe there is a way by connecting it to the AUX connector of the Zeppelin, but I haven't tried that yet... .
- Answered by Xavier L
Radio on iPod nano plays only with headphones connected as they act as an antenna. Music plays via headphones when they're connected. So answer is no.

I am always mistrustful of police statistical reports and reports such as those provided by shelters. There usually is a reason for their "findings", like "justification" for more federal funding. Colorado has lots of so-called conservatives (authoritarian royalists) who are going to put forward all manner of nonsense regarding supposed effects of marijuana partial legalization. The "they have an attitude" part says it all.

37 Tasting Notes
Craving a shou today, I decided to steep a bit of this tea. Excellent shou in my opinion. No fermentation smell – as expected from a 14 year old shou. Nice body with a woody sweetness that lingers in the mouth. This is definitely a lightly fermented cake – my preference. Nice stuff, 84/100.
Eager to sample this tea, I couldn't wait any longer. I use about 5 grams in my 85 mL 1970s Dai Cao Qing Factory 1 teapot – reserved for teas with age, A >=20 years. The wet leaves produce an aroma that brings spices, wet wood and some chocolate to mind – slightly different from the 60s GYG. The soup can be a little thicker in the mouth but offers a very nice hui gan and pleasant sweetness that is accompanied by notes of earth, wood and perhaps black licorice? Nice qi that seems to be bringing me into a state of bliss. Pretty nice tea.
Flavors: Earth, Licorice, Spices, Wood
In the mood for some aged sheng, I decided to prepare a steeping of this tea. I use about 6 grams in 100 ml of water. Since this is a loose leaf the leaves are intact and beautiful to look at. The colour of the dry leaf ranges from a copper-like colour to a dusty black. The wet leaves radiate an immense wood, wet forest floor-like character with hints of spices in the background. The soup is a dark red with very little cloudiness. It's thick in the mouth with a smooth texture. As the nose suggests, there are notes of wood and spices. Nice hui gan with an apparent qi. Excellent tea. 87/100
Note : On my third steeping, I think I could have gotten away with much less leaf. Perhaps 4-5 grams would have been sufficient.
Flavors: Earth, Spices, Wood
I came across this tea while sorting through a lot of pu samples. I prepared about 5.5 grams and steeped them for a brief 5-10 seconds. I usually use shorter steep times with LMEs. The wet leaves have a pleasant nose that brings smoke and fruits to mind. Surprisingly, the liquor isn't as bitter as I had expected, considering its origin. There is a heavy ku but its definitely tolerable. Nice hui gan and mouthfeel. There is what I find to be a charming astringency in this tea. IMO, this tea can definitely be enjoyed today but giving it a few years may be required for those who enjoy softer pus. 82/100
Flavors: Smoke
With the heavenly sounds of the Guzheng playing in the background, I decided to write a review for this tea. It truly looks beautiful as a soft compression brings out the beauty in each and every tea leaf. Truly, a piece of art to look at. The soft compression allows me to break off 6 grams while maintaining the integrity of the leaves – always a good sign. I briefly wash the tea and pour 100 mL (+/- 5 mL or so) of water into the gaiwan and watch the two mediums intertwine. I feel a great tranquility during the steeping as the beautiful tea leaves work their magic along with the sounds of the guzheng. The wet leaves have a soft delightful aroma that I cannot describe, but have found it common among yiwus. The soup has a bright golden colour and exhibits no cloudiness whatsoever. The processing was, clearly, very well done and in a clean environment. The soup is thick in the mouth with a charming mouthfeel. Vegetal, citrus notes and a slight smokiness seem to come to mind when drinking the soup, but perhaps what I find most enjoyable is the teas softness. I find that this tea is very enjoyable and is comparable to some gushus out there that cost 2-3 times more. I stand behind this tea. 85/100
P.S I will definitely be drying one of the leaves and adding it to my scrapbook!
Flavors: Citrus, Smoke, Vegetal
I decided to go back in time with this 1960s Guang Yun Gong that I picked up from David at the EoT. The dry leaves have a dark (almost black) colour with a red shading to it. The dry leaf also seems to have a subtle spicy aroma and a large amount of twigs, probably more than in modern bings. I don't mind this as I find it adds to the teas visual appeal. A quick wash of the leaves releases a beautiful aroma of spices, woodiness and bell peppers, an aroma that brings the 1979 Aged Beauty to mind. Very pleasant nose indeed. As one would expect, the soup has a dark reddish colour. The soup has a pleasant sweetness, which is consistent with the wet aroma, and mouthfeel. The soup seems to leave a long lasting lingering sweetness in the back of the throat. There is also an instantaneous hui gan. The cha qi is very apparent as a single cup of 40 mL has put me in a state of bliss. In conclusion, this tea is a joy to drink. It's an example of what we all strive for when aging our own puerhs. Of course, this tea isn't an everyday tea. At a whopping 5 pounds/ gram, this single steeping has set me back almost $50! However, I do think its worth to try. Easily a 90/100
Parameters : ~5 grams/100 mL brita filtered tap water
15 second steeps
Edit : You better believe I will be steeping these leaves 20+ times LOL!
I am really excited to sample this Bing Dao this morning. Hearing all the stories, I am curious as to what this tea is all about. Last night I sampled the 2012 Spring Guafengzhai and, I must say, I was rather disappointed. I found it to be rather fruity, probably too fruity to be true gushu. Anywho, I found it ok, but nothing special. This tea seems to be more consistent with true gushus I've had before. The wet leaves produce a subtle fruitiness with a tad of smokiness… just enough to make it pleasant.
The broth is thick in the mouth with a good balance of ku wei and sweetness, a sweetness which tends to linger for awhile. There is a soft citrus note that I commonly come across in gushus that I enjoy. Not much in terms of hui gan but definitely some qi. Really enjoying this one. Would I pay the asking price for a full bing? Probably not. 84/100

Our Brown Bess Bayonet is a socket bayonet which was an improvement over the earlier plug bayonets. The Brown Bess Bayonet was the standard British infantry bayonet issued from 1722 through 1840 for use with the Brown Bess musket. Socket Bayonets were made with a socket that fitted over the barrel of the musket and had a slot which slid past the fore sight. Later bayonets would have a locking catch. The blade was offset to one side allowing the soldier to load the musket. Our high quality Brown Bess Bayonet is a replica of the Brown Bess Bayonet that was used during the American Revolutionary War. The triangular bayonet blade is made from hand forged high carbon tempered steel.
Overall is 20" Internal Diameter 24mm
Includes Scabbard with Carrying Strap

President Obama's inauguration: Remember Aretha Franklin's hat?
Barack Obama is being inaugurated into his second term as President of the United States, which has caused many to look back at how things have changed -- or not -- over the past four years. But as the inauguration takes place, we can't help but miss the MVP of the 2009 ceremony: Aretha Franklin's hat.
Franklin performed "My Country Tis of Thee" for Obama at his first inauguration, but it was the Queen of Soul's Luke Song hat that got all the attention. Song shot to fame after the Internet became obsessed with the hat, and it has gone down in the annals of best headwear at a political event ever.
Kelly Clarkson is performing "My Country Tis of Thee" during the 2013 inauguration, and hopefully she is aware of what big shoes she has to fill. Will she end up wearing as memorable an accessory as Franklin four years ago? Well, that's ultimately for the Internet to decide.
What was your favorite part of the 2013 inauguration?

Taylor Finseth, MDTaylor grew up in Northeastern Ohio sandwiched between two of the finest cities in the US - Cleveland and Akron. He enjoyed playing soccer growing up and looks back fondly on the state championship he was fortunate enough to win as a senior in High School. He attended undergrad at Miami University (in Ohio) and medical school at Ohio State University. There he met his lovely wife, Beth, who is now an OB/GYN resident at Exempla St Joseph Hospital in Denver (also where Taylor did his IM internship). They came to Denver for a new adventure, the scenery, the weather and, of course, the wonderful people we met here on our interviews. Taylor is "undeclared" in his further neurology interests but is planning on doing a fellowship here at U of Colorado.
Jason Fleming, MDJason was born and raised just outside New Orleans, Louisiana. Wanting to experience a different part of the country, he attended Boston College for his undergraduate degree. He had always been interested in pursuing a career in medicine, and during his summers in college he had the opportunity to spend time in clinic and the operating room with a movement disorders specialist who was part of a surgical deep brain stimulation group. This experience solidified his interest in medicine and furthered his interest in neurology in particular. After medical school at the University of Miami School of Medicine, he had the opportunity again to experience a new region of the US after matching at the University of Colorado. He has very much enjoyed working with all of the faculty, students, and co-residents during both his intern year and neurology residency at the University of Colorado. When not working, Jason enjoys hiking, cycling, snowboarding, and mostly any other activity that provides the opportunity to appreciate the outdoors and be active. He intends to pursue a fellowship though at this point remains undecided about which sub-specialty. In the meantime, he plans to see more of the beauty of the American West, especially after trips to Rocky Mountain and Grand Teton National Parks.
Laura Friedlander, MDLaura is a proud Colorado native. While growing up in the foothills she was able to enjoy camping, hiking, boating and even dirt biking in the Rocky Mountains. This love of the outdoors was enough to convince her to stay in the beautiful state of Colorado to complete her academic career. She attended the University of Colorado Boulder where she majored in Molecular Cellular Developmental Biology and was lucky enough to stay in the state for medical school at the University of Colorado School of Medicine. She knew that becoming a physician was the perfect career choice after completing a year of research investigating the immune system's interaction with HIV. This experience reinforced not only how important the science behind medicine is but also how much she wanted human interaction to be an integral part of her career.
Cliff Hampton, MDCliff grew up in Utah and graduated from Weber State University with a degree in Spanish Language. He has held dozens of jobs since a teenager in everything from landscaping to cancer research and from Spanish medical interpreter to men's clothing retail. Late in the course of his college education, he chose to pursue a career in medicine and is the first and only person from his family in the medical field. He left Utah to attend the Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, Texas and received his medical degree with special emphasis in bioethics. During medical school, he found his rotations through internal medicine, neurology, and psychiatry especially fulfilling. He eventually decided on neurology because neurologic disease affects individuals and families so profoundly and there is so much potential to help patients through their maladies. After graduating from Baylor, he completed his medicine internship at University of Colorado Denver. Despite internship being a busy year, he very much enjoyed it because the residents and faculty with whom he worked were "simply superb." Cliff and his wife have been married almost a decade. Most of his time outside of residency duties is dedicated to his wife and three energetic sons. Among their favorite family activities are taking long walks or day hikes and having picnics at scenic mountain vistas.
Michelle Leppert, MDMichelle was born in Taipei, Taiwan. Her family moved to Vancouver, Canada when she was nine, where she developed a love for math and table tennis. In high school her family moved again to Cupertino, California where she live down the street from Apple headquaters. She studied Math and Biology at Duke University, and spend a summer trapessing around the Peruvian amazon modeling trees. After college she migrated south and attended medical school at Emory University in Atlanta where she became obsessed with neuroanatomy and the mysteries of the brain. While in medical school, she became dissatisfied with the current model of healthcare delivery. She obtained an MBA in hopes of one day making heathcare affordable and more accessible. Currently, she is a resident in Neurology at the University of Colorado and spends her free time with her husband, new baby boy, rabbit and two turtles.
Michael Persenaire, MDBorn and raised in West Michigan. Undergraduate studies in biopsychology. Medical school in Detroit, MI at Wayne State University with the intention of entering a Neurology residency. I chose the University of Colorado mostly for the people I met in the Neurology program and beautiful surroundings. My intersets include basketball, golf, music (mostly listening) and conspiracy theories with a focus on conspiracy theories surrounding western medicine. People I admire include Noam Chomsky, Bertrand Russell, David Hume, William James, Adam Smith and John Dewey. So far, I couldn't be happier with my choice to move to colorado.
Brice McConnell, MDI was born and raised in sunny Colorado. I completed an undergraduate in Biochemistry at Colorado State University, and subsequently completed a MSTP at UC Denver with a PhD in Molecular Biology. When I had the opportunity to stay here for residency in Neurology, I was thrilled to join the program. My wife and our dogs live in a home near the University and enjoy our great backyard garden with plenty of fresh veggies all summer. In my free time, I enjoy outdoor activities like hiking, biking and camping. My wife and I are also travel enthusiasts, and love to have a good adventure outside of the States.
Dina Galperin, MDDina Galperin was born in St. Petersburg, Russia and moved to Colorado at young age. She grew up in Denver and attended college at the University of Colorado at Boulder where she received a degree in integrative physiology. She moved away to attend medical school at St. Louis University and then ventured even further east to New York. There she completed her internship year at Northshore-LIJ hospitals. After a long time away she and her husband are excited to return to sunny Colorado where she will conitnue her neurology training. She is excited to enjoy all the great outdoors Colorado has to offer and cannot wait for the start of the ski season.
Cameron Ludt, MDCameron grew up in Tucson, Arizona soaking up the sun and exploring the desert. She attended University of Arizona (go wildcats!) and pursued a degree in Marine Biology. After realizing she doesn't swim well, gets horribly sea sick and is surrounded by desert she switched her major the Physiology. She completed her medical school training at Arizona College of Osteopathic Medicine. After spending the majority of her life in the dry heat she decided to head to higher ground. She completed her Intern year at the University of Colorado. She loved the UCH program, the people she worked with and all the things to do around this great state. When not diving into the mysteries of the brain, Cameron enjoys exploring new places in Colorado, hiking, scuba diving, sushi and learning to drive in the snow.
Stacy Dixon, MDStacy is a born and raised Hoosier from Indiana. She attended Indiana University in Bloomington, IN where she majored in Microbiology with a minor in Chemistry. She then went on to complete her medical degree at Indiana University School of Medicine in Indianapolis. Because she enjoyed being a student, she decided to also obtain her Ph.D. in Pharmacology from Indiana University School of Medicine. For her dissertation, Stacy studied epigenetic medications in the protozoan parasite Toxoplasma gondii. After spending her entire life in Indiana, Stacy thought it was time to move to the mountains. She completed her internship year in Appalachia at East Tennessee State University. She is thrilled to now begin her Neurology residency in Denver at the University of Colorado and to begin to experience the Mountain West lifestyle with her husband who is an avid outdoor enthusiast.
Trevor Hawkins, MDTrevor was born and raised in Cleveland OH, where he perfected the art of cheering for losing teams (ie Indians, Browns and Cavs). He then traveled south to Columbus where he attended THE Ohio State University for undergraduate where he finally learned what it means to cheer for a winning team. Although he started college wanting to be a chemist and then a neuroscientist, years of being buried in a basement with only lab rats for company quickly turned him to a more personable career. He then graduated with a major in biochem and a minor in neuroscience and went on to University of Toledo for medical school. After touring the state of Ohio, he felt it was time to get away to the great state of Colorado. He completed his medicine internship at University of Colorado and greatly enjoyed his first year at Denver. In his spare time, he is taking full advantage of the mountain life having skied just shy of 40 days last year, hiking, golfing, volleyball in the park or exploring the many fine microbreweries and restaurants Denver has to offer.
Samuel DeStefano, MDHometown: Harrison, ArkansasUndergraduate: Biomedical Engineering at Tulane University Medical Interests: still undecided but early interest in cognitive neuro, sleep neuro and medical technologyHobbies: Skiing, Golfing, Arkansas and New Orleans football What I like about colorado: 1) The ability to get up early on a day off, go to the mountains for a half day of skiing and be back in time for lunch (or golf.) 2) the never ending list of activities going on in the city.
Asher Jones, MDAsher grew up in Central Florida where he spent most of his time wrestling and water skiing. He received his bachelor's degree in biology from Brigham Young University in Utah after which he attended The Chicago Medical School. He completed his internship year in Internal Medicine here at the University of Colorado. He currently lives in Denver with his wife and 3 children. He is very excited to be out West again and to be training in neurology at such a great program. In his spare time, he enjoys playing basketball (or any sport for that matter), hiking, camping, and going to parks with his family. His favorite thing about Colorado is the fresh mountain air and lack of alligators in the lakes.
Justin Persson, MDHometown: Armour, SDUndergraduate: Psychology at Augustana, Sioux Falls, SD Medical School: University of MinnesotaHobbies: Intramural basketball, biking, hiking, reading, taking our boston terrier to the dog park.
Katie Rosell, MDHometown: Wichita, KSUndergraduate: Newman University, Wichita, KSMedical interests: At this point, it's hard to find an area of neurology that I don't like, so I can't pinpoint one specific area as my favorite. I do especially have an interest, however, in movement disorders and neuromuscular disorders.Hobbies: In my free time, I really enjoy baking (I don't know that I'm particularly good at it but I sure like trying) and reading books purely for enjoyment. I also love going camping and hiking with my husband and friends and having movie nights at home or going out in pursuit of a new ice cream place I haven't tried.What do I like about Colorado? I haven't lived in Colorado since I was 5, but my family has gone out to the mountains in Colorado almost every summer since then to hike. I really enjoy exploring the mountains as well as the afternoon rain showers. Also, my husband is starting to teach me to ski, so I look forward to that!Favorite job before residency: Volunteering in jungle birds at the zoo in Wichita.
Sasan Salimian, MDHometown: Baltimore, MarylandUndergraduate: University of Maryland, Baltimore County Medical Interests: Multiple Sclerosis, Movement Disorders, StrokeHobbies: Hiking, Camping, Fishing, Sports What do you like about Colorado: The mountains!

Assaults on ATMs prompt more security steps
Maybe it's the economy or the fact they're easy targets, but ATMs are being torched, bludgeoned, smashed and stolen at an ever-increasing rate in San Diego County, and law enforcement and businesses are taking steps to stop it.
Since January, 24 ATMs have been stolen locally. Last year, there were 17 reported ATM thefts for the entire year, according to the Sheriff's Department.
Crooks typically smash the front glass doors of the businesses and either knock the money-laden boxes off their moorings by driving vehicles into them or yank them out with chains attached to trucks. The machines are then loaded into the vehicles, which are usually stolen, and hauled off.
It's not just happening in San Diego. ATM thefts have been reported all over the nation — largely in California, Texas and Florida — and in Europe, Australia and South Africa, said Mark Smith, business development manager with ATM manufacturer Triton, which sells ATM products worldwide.
The crimes are typically committed by organized groups who know what they're doing, Smith said.
As if the loss of a machine weren't bad enough, businesses — which can own, rent or just house the machines — often are left with hefty bills to repair the damage thieves cause.
"If you told vendors you were going to steal their machine, they would probably say, 'I'll just give you the money, if you just leave the ATM alone,' " said Jim Cabe, president of the National Association of ATM ISOs and Operators, a trade group. "Sometimes, just the cost of the machine is worth more than the money in it."
The machines can cost from about $1,000 to several thousand dollars, depending on the model.
Triton's Smith said there are several innovations to make ATMs more secure. "Security is a big element of what we do," he said.
One security device, called a "raminator," is an accordion-type piece of equipment made of steel that attaches to the ATM and to the floor or the wall. The machine can still be knocked over, but the only way to get it loose is to cut through thick steel.
ATMs can be equipped with heat sensors and seismic alarms that can be tied into other burglar alarms and emit an ear-piercing sound when a machine is torched or rocked. ATMs can also be put into metal enclosures or have flashing lights installed.
But security comes at a cost not all retailers are willing to pay. Many don't realize they need it until they're targeted.
Mark Arabo, president and CEO of the Neighborhood Market Association, which represents 2,000 independent grocery stores and markets in California and Nevada, concurs. Getting retailers to be proactive is one of the biggest problems his group faces, he said.
The recent rash of thefts is making store owners more cautious and vigilant. "We're more prepared," Arabo said.
Many retailers have begun to take the money out of their machines at night. They're also investing in night-vision cameras.
Arabo said crooks can tell the difference between stores that have high-tech security and those that don't, and that the cameras deter all crimes, not just those involving ATMs.

Why you should NOT buy a Ural motorcycle
View Single Post
Aussie BM rider, West Oz.
Joined: Jun 2005
Location: Perth.
Oddometer: 1,863
I thought it was a gutsy (and pretty true post).
I thought long and hard about getting one here in Australia.
I'm a long time BMW airhead owner, and have a soft spot for flat twins, but I knew I planned to do a lot of riding, much of it in isolated country and decided they were just too risky to bother with.
(By isolated, try to imagine a country roughly the geographical size of the USA, but with only 20 million people in total and +85% of those people living on the coastal fringes).
In the end I bought a low mileage, second hand Suzuki GSX 1400 and with a couple of mates, fitted a leading link and aluminium bodied chair.
The whole thing cost me about $2,000 less than a new Ural in Australia.
That was three years ago and I've now done two west to east crossings of Australia plus thousands of dirt Kilometres.
Not a single mechanical issue. Not one.
And I still get lots of attention from Joe (and Josephine) Public.
I've never felt the need for a reverse gear or two wheel drive.
I get fuel consumption figures anywhere between 10 kms/litre to 13.5 kms/litre. Depending on my throttle hand.
That's roughly 28 miles/imperial gallon to 38 miles/imperial gallon.
Plus I have the grunt to sit on highly illegal speeds if I want and can pass large semi trailers with ease.
Plus my boot is watertight
and can double as a table, see below.

E.J. Hollis, 87, passed away on November 26, 2013 at OCH Regional Medical Center in Starkville, MS. He was the retired owner of Hollis Brothers and a member of Fellowship Baptist Church in Starkville. He was also an Army veteran.
Mr. Hollis was preceded in death by his parents, Deewitt Augustus Hollis and Mae Henderson Hollis; and grandson, Bubba Hollis.
No one has ever questioned how important the Egg Bowl is to Mississippi State head coach Dan Mullen.
From day one, he has made a point to make his feelings known about the Magnolia State rivalry.Â
On Wednesday, Mullen took it to another level for his Bulldogs.
"(The players) would rather win this game than go to a bowl game," Mullen said on Wednesday's Southeastern Conference teleconference.Â
The Starkville Yellowjackets fell short of their goal in winning their second-straight football state championship this season.
That doesn't mean that coach Jamie Mitchell is any less proud of what his team was able to accomplish.
Starkville finished with a 9-4 overall record and 6-1 in Class 6A, Region 2 that was good for second place.
It appeared that the Mississippi State men's basketball team had already mentally checked out, and were getting ready for its Thanksgiving meal.
It nearly cost the Bulldogs a game.
MSU pulled together in the second half as it survived upset-minded Jackson State 58-56 Wednesday afternoon inside Humphrey Coliseum.
Volleyball player Dani McCree came for an official visit to Mississippi State a few short years ago.
Upon their arrival, her mom Dana told her do not commit until you have seen everything, but it did not take much for McCree to fall in love with her future home.
Starkville Board of Aldermen unanimously accepted embattled Starkville Police Chief David Lindley's letter of retirement during a called meeting Tuesday afternoon.
The board placed Lindley on administrative leave with pay on Friday after another called meeting. Lindley was to remain on leave while the city conducted an investigation.
After 18 years of service, Oktibbeha County Administrator Don Posey is retiring.
Posey, 71, said he'd grappled with the decision for some time, and finally decided it was time to move on.
Bart Wood, general manager for The Little Dooey in Starkville, is offering his employees a trade.
After starting 3-0, Mississippi State head coach Rick Ray felt his team had developed big heads.
Last season saw a Bulldog team lose more than they won, and the 3-0 start was a welcomed start.
MSU was brought back down to reality after an 87-68 loss to Utah State on the road on Saturday.
It was not a good first 4 minutes of Tuesday night's basketball game for the Mississippi State women.
The Bulldogs had only scored six points during that stretch and trailed visiting Savannah State Tigers 7-6.
With a trip to Naples, Fla., looming and a bus ride to Birmingham, Ala., taking place immediately following the game, MSU head coach Vic Schaefer knew that might present a problem.

Analyst Peter Misek, via StreetInsider, is saying that Apple is looking to raise iPhone 6 prices by as much as $100. Misek claims that Apple has been actively negotiating the increase with carrier partners.
Misek says that Apple can leverage the iPhone 6's market power to force carrier's hands. He says that carriers believe the iPhone 6 will be the only headline-worthy phone this year and that carriers need the iPhone to retain subscribers.
But we think this general lack of differentiation could be the reason why Apple may be able to get a price increase. Carriers realize that the iPhone 6 will likely be the only headline-worthy high-end phone launched this year and that they will lose subs if they do not offer it."
Misek says that a $50 increase in average selling prices for the next-generation iPhone could increase Apple's EPS by 11%.
An ASP increase could offset iPhone 6 gross margin headwind, according to Misek. "Our prelim iPhone 6 BOM est indicates GM could be up to 450bp lower than the 5s (pricier display/AP partially offset by general 5%-10% price concessions)," he notes. "Our current estimates assume a 430bp decline, which we feel is conservative unless some of the components run into yield issues. We estimate a $50 ASP increase on the iPhone 6 would raise GM by 375bp and $100 by 700bp so a $50 ASP increase would offset most of the iPhone 6 COGS pressure."
Misek said a $50 iPhone 6 ASP increase would raise revenues EPS by 2%/11% and a $100 increase by 6%/24%.
Whilst it is true that the iPhone has staggering market power, it is hard to believe that Apple will up prices away from the norms they have established over the past seven years. In fact, the trend recently has been that Apple needs to lower prices for iPhones, not raise them, as demonstrated by Apple's introduction of the iPhone 5c last year.
As StreetInsider notes, raising prices will likely hurt sales of unlocked iPhones — a purchase method that is steadily increasing in popularity.
Misek's track record with Apple predictions is also not great by any measure. The analyst has claimed multiple times that the iTV is on the horizon. More recently, he said that the iPhone 5s will come in eight different colours, feature NFC and launch in June.
With the possible introduction of two iPhone 6 models (both 4.7inch and a 5.5inch variants) it is possible that the larger iPhone may come with a higher price point to match. However, at this point it is really hard to believe that Apple will budge from the base $99/$199 price points it has instated for the last several years.

13 Responses to "Unlikely scenario: Analyst Peter Misek says Apple wants to raise iPhone 6 prices by as much as $100"
Honestly a larger iPhone is an exciting opportunity for Apple to establish some new norms in device pricing. The idea that people will abandon the platform if Apple charges a higher premium on best in class devices is ridiculous. The lock in has already been secured with hundreds of millions of consumers, and many more people are waiting to hop on board and adopt iOS when they get the chance to buy a bigger screen device. Price is irrelevant. It's all about elegance and experience.
Why is anyone taking this guys word with a grain of salt?

Vegas casino chips normally start in price at $0.80 and could
go up tp $2.50 per chip while other chips go anywhere from
$0.05 to $0.35 a piece so there is a big price difference.
The main reason for this big price difference is the fact
that the more expensive chips or professional poker chips
are made in the USA which means higher material/labor/production
costs where the cheaper poker chips are usually made in China
or Taiwan where all the costs are lower. Simply being made
in Asia does not mean that the chips have a lower quality,
they are just cheaper to buy. You can also buy real casino poker
chips on some web-sites for much higher than the face
value of the chips and some of these chips are poker
chips that have been retired by the casinos.

These capsules contain certified organic Ginger, freshly dried to ensure retention of the pungent natural oils.
100% NON-GMO VEGETARIAN CAPSULE: Pullulan (complex carbohydrate)Why do some labels have potassium chloride on them?
As an herbal supplement, take three capsules daily, with a small meal. For travel, take up to 4 capsules daily as needed.
Ginger has played a significant role in Chinese, Japanese and Indian medicine since the 1500's. In Asia, Ginger has been recommended in the treatment of stomach aches and nausea for thousands of years. The oleoresin of Ginger is often contained in herbal medicines for the digestive tract.
Ginger has been listed in the in the United States Pharmacopoeia (USP) and the National Formulary as a carminative, aromatic, and stimulant.
A mixture of zingerone, shoagoles and gingerols causes the characteristic odor and flavor of Ginger root; volatile oils that we know require special manufacturing steps to preserve their integrity.
During cultivation, root crops are very susceptible to pests and it takes a skilled organic farmer to raise high quality Ginger without the use of pesticides or herbicides.
Do not use if pregnant unless under the guidance of a health care professional. Keep out of reach of children. Discontinue if unusual symptoms occur. Do not exceed recommended dose unless under the guidance of a health care professional.
Avoid in individuals allergic to Ginger or to members of the Zingiberaceae (Ginger) family.Certified Organic by Oregon Tilth

In line with the cashless policy aimed at reducing the dominance of cash in the system, the Nigeria Inter-Bank Settlement System (NIBSS) has introduced two new bill payment systems.
The two new products were the Automated Direct Debit (ADD) and NIBSS e-BILLLspay.
Speaking at the event in Lagos, Executive Director, Technology and Operations, Mr. Niyi Ajao, said, the two products would complement the existing products.
"We have two product launched today and both of them targeted at bill payment. If u look at our market today, it is so difficult to pay bill in this country. The Direct Debit Card (DDC) is highly in existence and when you want to pay through it, it is always a challenge.
"We have packaged the two products at the same time to help the public to pay their bills very conveniently and to help companies who are proving services so they can get paid for their services."
Furthermore, Ajao stated the NIBSS e-BILLspay is an account number based, on-line real-time credit transfer product that enables customers to make payments by leveraging the security provided by the banks.
"It enables banks to provide electronic bills payment services through Payment Channels Banking Internet Banking (iB), Mobile Banking, Kiosk among others while the ADD is a cashless or electronic payment method for settlement of financial obligations and indebtedness on a recurring basis through authorisation to debit nominated bank accounts in any bank at agreed intervals," he said.
In addition, he declared that the two products would further enhance the cashless policy.
He added: "If you go to many companies today where people pay bills, they go to the bank first to withdraw money. But with the two products we have launched, it will help so much that you won't need to touch cash, you just go through your bank and if you are familiar with our internet banking, you go through the internet banking.
"You just sign up through the internet using the credentials your bank has given you, your username and password then you pay your bill. With these products, no manual intervention, you make your payment through our system and the system will notify the company that you have paid."

Bowling Chart template
also known as a Bowler Chart or Hoshin Bowling chart
Although originally developed for Hoshin Kanri Policy Deployment,
this is an excellent visual management tool for any type
of continuous improvement project that involves time-phased objectives.
It can be helpful to think of a bowling chart as a time-phased To Do List.
Sample Bowling Chart example
How to use your
Bowling Chart Excel template
The fields are pretty intuitive. Even the special Systems2win fields not shown in the illustration above.
After reading a book about the subject, it is not uncommon for a person to spend a half day creating a homemade template based upon one of the book's illustrations.
That's the easy part.
Then when you attempt to actually use the template...
you quickly realize that the entire point of it is to provide intuitive red, yellow, green visual indicators.
Is your team is on the expected trajectory to "get to green" — or are you falling off track?
In other words, the value of this tool relies on the colors of those cells being correct:
red, yellow, or green.
and most Excel users simply don't have the expertise to program the Conditional Formatting
so that each cell correctly turns red, yellow, or green.
That's what the Systems2win template does for you.
It provides intelligently designed fields for you to enter YOUR desired targets,
and YOUR thresholds for when to turn the color red, yellow, or green.
Study the sample data
on the Sample sheet
in your template
The 'Sample' worksheet has examples of correctly written
Conditional Formatting statements for both:
- Desired direction of measure is up
- Desired direction of measure is down
You can simply copy and paste the cells from the Sample worksheet to your Template worksheet (and then maybe change the cell formatting to fit your
data — for example, percent, number, or text...)
If you need to edit your own Conditional Formatting (for unusual data),
the 'Help' worksheet provides concise instructions for how to do it.
Why are we trying to
Why re-invent?
When all of this is available in such an inexpensive template...
... why on earth would you want to pay an in-house person to sit in a corner to try to re-invent an inferior lean bowling chart template?
This Bowler Chart template comes with

'United States of Tara' preview: 'Six Feet Under's' Frances Conroy is a hoarder
As if Max ( John Corbett) didn't already have his hands full with his personality-switching wife, "Six Feet Under" star Frances Conroy adds to the madness as his hoarding mother on Monday's (April 11) episode of "United States of Tara."

But things get a bit too much for Tara to handle, so troublemaking teen alter, T, takes over and possibly changes Tara and Charmaine's relationship forever.

version 6.1.02 when we create a work order via sfc500 we can specify the customer order that this shop order. this is done by entering the customer order on the sfc500 screen when we create the work order. but we have some customer orders where the customer might order the same item on five different lines, ie deliver 50 items on the first of jan, feb, march, April, may. we can create 5 separate work orders to make these items. but there is no way that i can find within sfc to indicate that work order 1 is for the jan delivery, work order 2 is for the feb delivery, work order 3 is for the march delivery, work order 4 is for the April delivery, and work order 5 is for the may delivery. there is a field in the shop order record (FSO) call SCLIN that says it is for the customer order line number, but i can't find a way to populate this. does anybody have a solution that will allow us to designate which specific customer order and line a work order is for? chick doe barton instrument systems

Michael Jordan's Paycheck
Unfortunately, many people's talk is cheap. They say one thing and then do another which makes their promises as empty as their integrity. If the commitments they've made might end up costing them something, they break them without any reservation.
But when Michael Jordan gave his word, he kept it…even if it could cost him millions. Continue reading
Two Strikes and You're Out
Everybody knows that in baseball you get three strikes…and then you're out. Not 1. Not 4. It's such a universal rule that most parents and teachers (and even bosses) use it in their respective roles. Getting "three" strikes is the last hope a nervous batter has after accumulating two.
Unless that batter is Chris Stewart of the New York Yankees…. Continue reading
Making the Most of Failures
When asked, "What made Michael Jordan so great?" lots of basketball fans may think "practice," "dedication," "teamwork," "great coaching," "luck" or something else. When Michael Jordan answers that question about himself, he give a surprising answer.
A very surprising answer. Continue reading
Grace on the Gridiron
Jake Porter wasn't exactly the most talented player on his high school football team. OK, that's an understatement. He'd never scored a single touchdown. He'd never even ran the ball. Heck, he'd never even touched the ball!
But all that was about to change. And when it did, a lot of hearts would also be changed. Continue reading
Florence's Fog
Florence Chadwick was a world-class athlete who set and broke long-distance swimming records for women…and men. In 1950, she crossed the English Channel faster than any other woman in history. A year later, she crossed it again, this time against the current, something no other woman had ever done.
But on July 4, 1952, Chadwick did something else she'd never done before. Continue reading
Picking Leroy
If you were putting together a basketball team and had the chance to pick Michael Jordan as one of your players, you would almost certainly do so. But back in 1978, Coach Clifton "Pop" Herring had that exact opportunity…and opted not to.
Instead of MJ, he chose a player that most fans have never heard of. Continue reading
"You Can't Ride the Fence"
When Michael Jordan stepped onto the court, he played for nothing short of victory. He was a driven, committed, passionate athlete who was intolerant of mediocrity. But he didn't just play that way; he lived that way, as well.
Just ask his most-trusted friend, Fred Whitfield. Continue reading
Derek Redmond's Biggest Run
In 1992, British-born Derrick Redmond was in search of an Olympic medal. Which color, he cared not. He just wanted a piece of human history, and he had disciplined himself with machine-like precision his whole life to achieve that goal. Continue reading
Trouble at Third
Baseball is not the fast-paced game that basketball is. Nor is it a contact sport like football. In spite of those qualities, it still has the reputation of being "America's favorite pastime."
Perhaps that's because many baseball fans are absolutely crazy about their teams. Continue reading
Beyond the Starting Line
"Crossing the line of faith." It's the most important step anyone will ever take, but too many Christians shortchange their relationship with Jesus by forgetting about the second step, the third step, and the millionth step. They mistakenly think they're done after they cross the starting line.
Usain Bolt, a man who knows an awful lot about crossing lines, would never make that mistake. Continue reading

Gallery: Hennessey Venom GT #03
Third production model of insane 1,200bhp hypercar gets shiny red paint. Stop, click and drool…
Posted: 25 Mar 2011
This is the Hennessey Venom GT, chassis number #03. As you can see, it is red.
Unless a monkey with a brain fetish attacked you in the middle of the night, you should have memorised the Elise/Exige-based hypercar's stats. If said monkey did attack however, here they are...
A twin-turbo aluminium V8 that redlines at 7,200rpm churns out 1,200bhp and 1,155lb ft of the pully-stuff, it hits 0-62mph in 2.5 seconds, 0-200mph in 15.9 seconds, does the quarter-mile in 9.9 seconds and tops out at 267mph.
A six-speed manual helps move it, Brembo six-piston brakes help stop it, three-way adjustable coilovers help corner it, and your ego helps slide/bin it.
Click through for pics of number #03. Better than the black or silver one?

Business Tips…by a new MomPreneur – PART I
August 27, 2009 by MomMadeThat
Filed under Uncategorized
Make Networking Meaningful
When I first started selling on Etsy, I noticed that a lot of other sellers mentioned teams in their shop announcements. Some people were on local "street teams" – others were on teams organized by craft. Artfire has something similar, called Guilds. I was looking for a way to get my name out there, so I decided to investigate.
One of the products I sell is personalized/initial jewelry for moms. So, I thought it would be only natural to seek out mom-related "teams" on Etsy – thinking I'd find my target market right there. And while I did learn some very interesting tips (I'll be sharing one in particular in my next article!) the group itself wasn't quite the right fit for me. So I sought out a few more.
Two months later, some of those groups STILL haven't contacted me back. In the meantime, I've kept searching. One group got back to me right away – I jumped in, and I'm so glad I did.
When I set out to find a team on Etsy, I did it with sales and targeted audiences in mind. To date, I haven't had any sales within my group (I did make one trade!) but I have gained so much more. Etsy's Team CAC discussion thread is one of my first stops each morning and one of the last stops I make at the end of my day.
The reason I keep going back is that selling online is HARD WORK, but within that team I can find a great deal of support and feedback. There are people there who I can celebrate with when I do get sales, and people who can pick me back up when I'm feeling discouraged. And we're ALL thinking of ways to support and promote each other – something you definitely need to succeed when you're selling online.
Getting into a team, guild or group is something I'd recommend to any online seller. Here are my suggestions for making it work for you:
- If you're on Etsy or Artfire, start with their internal message boards. The people there know exactly what you're going through.
- If you're solo, check out Yahoo! Groups, Café Handmade, Ning and other social networking sites. If you have a suggestion for a site not mentioned here, put it in the comments so others can find it!
- Shop around. Check out multiple groups. You may not find your fit right away.
- Remember, it's a TWO-WAY (or four-way…or ten-way…conversation). You can't just drop in, promote yourself, and walk out and wait for the sales. If you only talk about yourself, you're really just teaching people to ignore your posts.
- Remember that age-old rule from junior high – if you want to make friends, you have to BE a friend. It's very, very easy to feel ignored online. Don't take it personally! You have to work at your online friendships, just as you would in your "real-world" ones.
When it comes to networking through teams, groups and guilds, the payoff can be much more rewarding than money. You can find mentoring relationships, emotional support, honest feedback and plenty of other value that make message boards worth your time. Just make sure to budget your time – so that your chatting doesn't take away from your business.
Heck, you might even find some sales. While I haven't sold to the people I've networked with, I have bought from them. And when Christmas comes around, I already know where I'm getting a lot of gifts. Because I know the person behind the shop, I can't wait until I have the chance to support them.
Kristin Walters is a writer, crafter, and mother. Her shop, www.one9designs.etsy.com combines her passion for all three. Check out that site for personalized, hand-stamped sterling silver word jewelry in creative inspirational and family-related designs.

After a nice weekend of more seasonable temperatures and sunshine, we now move into a heat wave with some of the hottest days we've seen all summer. A ridge or large area of high pressure is currently hovering over the eastern U.S. and will continue to do so through this last week of August. This will lead to continual heating with highs in the 90s and heat indices around 100º. With this strong area of high pressure, rain stays mainly out of the forecast through the week. The next best shot of rain holds off until later this weekend when a front moves nearby; even then chances are low. Try to stay cool out there, everyone!
