Opportunity abounds as the downturn persists

Page 5 of 6It's a good time to buy technology
Even as the economy slowed to a near-standstill, innovation in the technology sector continued to move at a dizzying speed. Software and hardware just get better, faster and more efficient — and in many ways, cheaper. It costs far less to start up a company than in the past, or to bring systems up to date, gain faster Internet connections, expand your marketing presence online, improve conversion rates and take advantage of cloud computing. Even more significantly for established but growing Oregon companies such as EthicsPoint, it is an extremely good time to purchase sophisticated technologies developed by individuals who don't have the resources to commercialize them.
EthicsPoint, a rapidly expanding Lake Oswego-based expert in the governance, risk and compliance industry with more than 2,300 clients, has built its business on the bottom-line importance of running an organization with integrity. The market for their services has grown as regulations have become more complex (think HIPAA and Sarbanes-Oxley) and laws on the books for years regarding bribery and corruption (think the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act) are enforced with more vigor in the wake of the financial crisis.
"There's no shortage of opportunity for us," says CEO David Childers.
EthicsPoint purchased two key technologies earlier this year at a fraction of the amount invested to develop them. The first is a policy manager technology that enables companies to set and track workplace policies and monitor their effectiveness. The second is a visualization tool developed for the Department of Homeland Security that enables users to layer data covering everything from crime and terrorist acts to weather and foreclosure rates onto interactive maps that help monitor risks proactively. That tool is built on layers, filters and feeds, and it aggregates data from a wide variety of sources. It is used by the U.S. Army to monitor troops in Afghanistan and by the Swedish Government to oversee its 9-1-1 program. EthicsPoint plans to offer it to clients in the first quarter of 2011.
"We used the down economy to take advantage of technology people had invested a lot of money in," says Childers. "We were able to buy that technology at a very good price. Now EthicsPoint is in the awareness business. We can help clients identify events in real time that could pose a risk to their businesses."
Both technologies play nicely into the EthicsPoint strategy to expand the menu of services available to its 2,300-plus clients. "We have 100 clients already clamoring for our visualization product," which will be released in the first quarter of 2011, Childers says.
Other tech companies have also seized the opportunity to purchase key technology in this economy, the largest example being Intel buying the security giant McAfee for $7.7 billion. But the opportunity doesn't apply only to tech giants. Prices for all types of businesses have fallen. The most recent data from the Internet's largest marketplace of businesses for sale, BizBuySell.com, indicates that prices for local businesses are even lower now than they were a year ago. The current median asking price for Portland businesses is $249,750, down 14.8% from $293,000 a year ago. The data considers both listed businesses and the growing number of companies for sale by owner.
Nationally, the median sales price for small businesses is the lowest it has been since BizBuySell.com began tracking it in 2007.

One of the many reasons why businesses fail is due to the lack of attention to analytics. Sure, you can go on running your business, but mastering the science of analytics will translate into a business advantage. But what exactly are analytics and why are they so important?
Court experience helps legal firm anticipate potential problems for clients and prevent expensive litigation.

Boston blasts: Indian American marathoner escapes unhurt
Washington: An Indian-American marathoner and his family escaped unhurt from Monday`s deadly Boston Marathon bombings. But they suffered hours of anxiety as they searched for each other after the twin blasts.
Dallas area runner Ajith Pai had finished the 26.2-mile course in a personal best time of 3 hours, 2 minutes 16 seconds, about an hour before the explosions, dallasnews.com reported. His father and others had cheered him on at the finish line right at the international flags, where the first explosion occurred.
Another group of family members including his mother and wife were on Boylston Street near the finish line when the explosions occurred, the news site said.
They had cheered him at Mile 22 and were walking toward the family gathering place from Boston College.
"We got in touch briefly to know they were okay," Pai was quoted as saying. "They were on the other side of the finish line. They wouldn`t allow them to come where we were."
Before the explosions, the day couldn`t have been better for the Pais, according to the website. "The weather was fantastic," Pai said.
"Everyone was in great spirits. The crowds were amazing. Everything was awesome. For this to happen was very sobering. I`m happy for my family and sad for those that weren`t so lucky," he was quoted as saying.

While Skoda has long been the Cinderella story of the Czech Republic, Skoda could soon find itself deposed as sovereign of their domestic auto market.
McLaren, like many makers of luxury goods, is having a difficult time moving their fine wares in China as of late, all thanks to a crackdown against lavish spending begun last year by the country's Communist government.
What do Justin Bieber, Ashton Kutcher and Al Gore all have in common? They may soon — baring a miracle — become the proud owners of the first orphan cars made in the 21st century for well-moneyed consumers by an automaker born in the 21st century, as Fisker Automotive has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection.
If you have a half million dollars in your pocket, you can be the opening bidder on a lot of 550 classic cars located at a family owned towing and storage lot in Apache Junction, AZ and listed for sale on Ebay right now. According to the ad, the business has been in operation since the 1960s and the lot is filled with cars from the 1940s through the 1980s, approximately 97% of which are complete with motors, transmissions and body parts. You can even negotiate to leave the cars where they are – that way your wife will never know…
"YOUR CAR!!!! I LOVE YOUR CAR!!!!" She was a Slavic-faced woman in her mid-twenties, not bad for New York and positively model-grade by Midwestern standards, and she was literally hopping up and down on the streetcorner.
"It's not a car," I said, wedged into the Morgan's extremely tight drivers' compartment, feeling self-conscious in a half-face helmet that I wasn't strictly sure was necessary or even required by law. "It's a trike."
"I WANT A RIDE!" she yelled. A crowd was starting to gather. The stoplight seemed to be taking an unusually long time to change.
"There isn't room." Wedged next to me, the Morgan's owner, professional bon vivant and recreational speeder Alex Roy, was making a "no room" motion with his hands in her direction as he explained the situation.
"Oh," I smirked, "I think there's room." But then the green light flashed and with an incongruous but very forceful Harley-blat we departed the intersection, leaving Miss Hopping Estonia 2007 in our blue-smoking wake.
Last weekend, I rode a boxcar to Joliet, Illinois, with the rest of the 24 Hours of LeMons hobos and helped put on the third annual American Irony race. Traditionally, the justices of the LeMons Supreme Court travel around race-track grounds in some sort of Judgemobile appropriate to our exalted station, and this time we had the use of what turned out to be one of the greatest motor vehicles in the entire world: a 2008 Piaggio Ape (pronounced "ah-peh") 50 Europe with just 21 miles on the clock.

Henry Ford was no gifted artist, yet he made a car worthy of the common man. William Durant didn't especially like cars, but created a marketing and distribution empire that inspired us all. And while Henrik Fisker's car-centric life isn't fully wikipedia'd, the first creation of the company that bears his name is an object of wonder and inspiration. The Fisker Karma, like every concept from any auto show, is a dream car: flaws and compromises intact. Read More >
Rarely does it happen that I get so excited to get up on a Monday morning, especially after a late night on a Sunday. But it was different this Monday, I was driving all the way from Mumbai to Pune early morning to drive a taxi. Yes a taxi, but this is no normal taxi, you see. It's the iconic cab, made by the London Taxi Company. Popularly called the black cab or the hackney carriage, the London Taxi is a rare sight in India, because there are just six of these in India. I drove a red one. Read More >
The MP4-12C has a wonderful backstory for those who love and admire the McLaren brand. The McLaren F1's instant Zeus-like status is a large part of the mystique, but not necessarily all of it. That said, for everyone outside of this world (and price point) you are forgiven if you wouldn't even consider this over the similarly priced Ferrari 458 Italia….as I probably fit into that category.
I didn't drive the Bugatti Veyron, but here you are reading my review. So how exactly did an automotive journalist with zero manufacturer connections, and no income (at the time) aside from menial paychecks as a drum instructor get the nerve to write a Veyron review?
"SOLD…to the gentleman by the staircase!" bellowed the auctioneer, before everyone applauded the winner of the night's ultimate charity prize: a trip to Bugatti central for a factory tour and a full day of seat time in the Veyron. As I stood next my brother, who was still in shock from being that high bidder, I knew he'd once again give TTAC a taste of the high performance combined with the brilliantly decadent. But, over a year later, the good Dr. Mehta is still busy beating cancer into remission. And we're running out of time before the Veyron slips into the history books.
Luckily, he was kind enough to being me along.

Eindhoven, The Netherlands - Jan 9, 2014 - NXP Semiconductors introduced a new multi-standard software-defined radio co-processor capable of decoding all three major digital terrestrial radio standards: Digital Radio Mondiale (DRM), HD Radio and DAB/DAB+/T-DMB. The new SAF360x series enhances digital audio quality via features such as Maximum Ratio Combining for DAB and HD Radio, and scalability for single, dual and triple tuner use cases. The SAF360x platform also offers a high degree of integration, replacing up to six chips with a single IC and reducing the footprint of the automotive digital radio application by more than 75 percent.
By using a software-defined radio, the SAF360x series, like its predecessor the SAF356x, offers a cost-effective platform that allows the same hardware to be used to decode multiple standards. This same platform could also be used to support new digital radio standards that may emerge in the future.
Using NXP-proprietary software algorithms the chip provides fast DAB scanning and sync time, enhanced tuner sensitivity and seamless DAB-FM-DAB blending. For HD Radio, the chip also offers enhanced reception performance via MRC. The SAF360x can be used in a wide range of HD Radio applications, with a single low-cost tuner or up to three high-end tuner inputs. With the availability of three tuners, the SAF360x can be used to support HD Radio diversity reception, with background scanning or data services decoded from a second station in parallel.

Beijing Smiles
By mgeorg3948 on January 15, 2014
My husband, Thom, has made a new game out of coaxing smiles from China locals. It's silly, like him, and fun, like him. This is quite the challenge but "Thom the crazy Laowai" is up to the task with his goofy grin and tenacious NYC attitude….no amount of blank stares (and there are many) will dissuade him from attempting to coax a smile from a stoic passersby or even an Embassy guard. Walking the streets of Beijing this week under the gray polluted skies, I got to finally see Thom succeed in producing a big smile from a local and it made a lasting impression on me.
Peddling his bicycle in the cold weather, this mature gentleman's eyes lit up and his face crinkled into a genuine, somewhat surprised, smile as he turned the corner in front of us, looking directly into my eyes after Thom had broken down the cultural barrier with a big grin. Eureka! I believe a fleeting moment of quiet understanding passed quickly between them that translated into we were happy to be in China sharing his culture and that is what produced the smile. I'll never know what he was thinking but I won't ever forget that moment on a street corner in Beijing.
Typically, no one here will look you directly in the eyes and never spontaneously smile--ever. Now, that is not to say that people are not expressive or happy-just not with strangers. Indeed, culturally, I have witnessed a society that prefers to be with others, socializing in groups, both friends and family. Fiona, my Chinese teacher, told me today that they are taught from an early age by family and teachers not to trust strangers, certainly not foreigners, and not to show emotion in public, whether it be joy or sadness. She also teaches Thom and finds him vastly amusing, though not terribly gifted at learning Chinese. At least he makes her laugh!
When Thom and I were out wandering around Beijing later that night hunting for an obscure temple to visit, we stopped on a busy corner to look at our map. In NYC, you would never want to do this because you would look like a "tourist" and thus could be targeted by street thieves but being a Laowai in China means you pretty much stand out all the time, especially where Thom and I like to go in all the local areas where they may rarely see Westerners. I was shocked when a lady stopped to ask if we needed help, speaking perfect English, which is very rare. She couldn't have been nicer in verifying that we were headed in the right direction. She smiled when we thanked her and I think she was appreciative of our efforts to get off the beaten path and experience her culture instead of the usual tourist traps. Two smiles in one day—a new Chinese record!
I plan on being back in Beijing quite often for business and look forward to exploring the hutongs (local neighborhoods) with Thom, playing on the exercise equipment in the parks and discovering the hidden gems that I know are everywhere in this crowded, fascinating city of 15+ million people, ridiculously polluted air and a few smiles.

the oldest pub in dublin ,
great food,Guinness and wonderful irish music
we were in the Saint patrick's day great atmosphere:)
3 Days in Dublin
Dublin Off the Beaten Path
Museum Guide for Dublin
Oldest pub in Ireland. It's full of atmosphere and little rooms everywhere. Great atmosphere reasonable prices. Don't miss this historic site with benefits.
The brazen head is a must visit for some really good food and a pint of Guinness! The interior has many stories to tell and is not like most pubs. The food was fantastic and service was great and really hearty. There is some very relaxing music playing in the background that makes you feel at ease. The pub also...
Terrible food and not friendly staff which is strange as it is one of the most popular places in Dublin. When we tried to talk to the waiter about the quality of food she treated us as if we were some kind of homeless who simply cannot understand how amazing it was because of high prices (also strange logics as...
We visited The Brazen Head (Ireland's oldest pub) twice on our visit to Dublin during July 2015 as we were staying around the corner. The first visit was for drinks in the evening. We arrived into a buzzing little courtyard with the sound of live music seeping out of one of the 3 bars that surround it. The pub was...
what a great pub and experience.. Great Irish Stew, the Guinness was great as was the service. Live music with a packed pub atmosphere made for a great evening. Could have stayed there all night
Walked here from our hotel on our first night in Dublin. Established in 1197 is the oldest pub in Dublin, or maybe Ireland I don't remember. For your first REAL Irish experience this place takes the cake! They have a lovely courtyard area and 3 bar areas with seating for food and drink. I had the beef and guiness stew...
I stopped by Brazen Head at the recommendation of my B&B host. It was a darling Irish pub with loads of history. I sat in one of their bar areas, which was a bit cramped (as expected given its history and location) next to some local guys who were very much like the Cheers of Dublin. I opted to have...
I will admit, on past trips to Dublin I had avoided the Brazen Head because I thought it would be touristy/kitschy/expensive. However, our taxi driver recommended it, so we thought we would give it a try. Prices were pretty standard for downtown Dublin, and the service was fast and attentive. The food was good! I LOVED the goat cheese and...
Very cool place when you think of it. Sitting inside a pub dating back to 1198.
The staff was very culturally mixed and friendly. The bartender was real cool and quite knowledgeable about their whiskey selection.
The whiskey and beer was plentiful. My buddy had the burger and said it was very good. I had the bucket the mussels which...

Architecture question: The small red exterior doors that are below a window on a white painted brick wall--what purpose do they serve? I was given the explanation but do not recall it. This type of door is not unique to the Brazen Head and serves/served some purpose in other buildings, as well. This is more a history/architecture question than a travel question, but I have a photo of these doors at the Brazen Head and can't remember the story about them.
I know they're not Leprechaun doors.... :-)
Around how much are pints here (a general range)?!
how much for an evening with music story telling and meal
how far from ashling hotel
How can you make a reservation? Can't find it on the website

Gasification level ups two times in Azerbaijan over 10 years
06 February 2014 [18:45] -
The gasification level amounted to 89.8 percent in Azerbaijan in 2013 compared to 39.8 percent in 2004, SOCAR head Rovnag Abdullayev said earlier at a conference dedicated to the implementation of two state programmes for the socio-economic development of the country's regions in 2004-2008 and 2009-2013, chaired by President Aliyev.
The number of gas consumers was 700,000 in 2004, but today the figure exceeds 1.6 million.
"More than 4800 kilometres of trunk gas pipelines and more than 25,000 kilometres of gas pipelines of different diameters were laid to achieve these indices," he added. "Some 8000 kilometres of gas pipes were repaired."
Some 18 gas distribution stations were built and 41 were repaired as part of gasification projects.
The gasification process of the Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic which is under siege as a result of Armenia's occupation of 20 percent of Azerbaijani territories will be fully completed. The level of providing the consumers of the Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic with gas meters increased from five to 100 percent. Some 50 percent fall to the smart card meters. This will reduce the level of losses from 25 percent to 7.4 percent.
Some 13.3 billion cubic meters of gas was supplied to the country's gas distribution system in 2013," he added.
SOCAR will continue its operations to increase the gasification level. This figure will reach 99 percent by 2015, according to SOCAR's plans.

WEBSITE OF THE DAY: This Is My Spam
Probably the best indicator that your new online venture has had some real "cut through" - as the marketers like to call it - is the appearance of imitators and spoofs.
So, judging by thisismyspam.com, our Website of the Day from a few weeks ago must be doing quite well.
We liked the original idea, as it allowed us to share our latest tunes with people we know.
But, clearly, some people don't appreciate the intrusion into their social media feeds. Perhaps we came across as smug. Perhaps people just don't care.
Either way, this is a great spoof site, brilliantly executed, which you can send on to your hipster muso mates if their latest "jams" are proving to be a pain.
But is also flags an interesting dilemma for people starting up new ventures who perhaps assume that everybody wants to see what you're up to all the time.
Harmless fun, but it makes a valid point.

Product description
Stuff happens...And it's untidy, and freedom's untidy, and free people are free to make mistakes and commit crimes and do bad things.' The famous response of Donald Rumsfeld, American Secretary of Defense, to the looting of Baghdad, at a press conference on 11 April 2003, provides the title for a new play, specially written for the Olivier Theatre, about the extraordinary process leading up to the invasion of Iraq. How does the world settle its differences, now there is only one superpower? What happens to leaders risking their credibility with sceptical publics? From events which have dominated international headlines for the last two years David Hare has fashioned both a historical narrative and a human drama about the frustrations of power and the limits of diplomacy. Stuff Happens premiered at the National Theatre, London, in 2004 season and has subsequently been performed around the world. In April 2006, it was given its New York premiere at the Public Theater in this new, slightly updated text.

People who know new Cleveland Browns owner Jimmy Haslam III and CEO Joe Banner insist they are looking to provide their franchise a fresh start and a new culture, which is one reason they will fire coach Pat Shurmur and general manager Tom Heckert, according to sources.
Wanting a fresh approach means not hiring a coach looking for a second chance such as New England Patriots offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels, who had been linked to Cleveland as a potential head coaching candidate but is not expected to be a candidate.
Cleveland is expected to make a major run at a college coach such as Oregon's Chip Kelly or Penn State's Bill O'Brien or search for a bright young offensive NFL mind.
The Plain Dealer reported Saturday that both Heckert and Shurmur would be relieved of their duties by Monday.
Cleveland already has hired San Diego Padres vice president Brent Stehlik as its executive vice president and chief revenue officer, a move that will be announced soon, according to league sources.
Earlier this month, the Browns hired Alec Scheiner to be their new team president. Scheiner had spent eight years with the Cowboys, including the past five as senior vice president and general counsel.
Heckert, 45, was the first person hired by former team president Mike Holmgren in 2010 and he rebuilt the Browns, infusing them with talent and adding depth to a roster that had none.
But his status became in doubt when Haslam bought the team and hired Banner to replace Holmgren.
He transformed Cleveland's roster through the draft and a few key free-agent signings. In 2012 alone, he selected running back Trent Richardson, quarterback Brandon Weeden and offensive tackle Mitchell Schwartz -- who all started as rookies -- in the first three rounds.
The Browns are 9-23 in two seasons under the 47-year-old Shurmur.

The Decemberists Reveal New Album Details
According to a Rolling Stone report in November, the record is "a twisty, fantastical story about a woman named Margaret who is ravaged by a shape-shifting animal; her lover, William, who is desperate for the two of them to be reunited; a forest queen; and a villainous rake."
This ambitious storyline has led Decemberists front-man Colin Meloy to say: "Everyone's going to call it a rock opera," adding to Rolling Stone that he's "just got to come around to that."
Under the direction of producer Tucker Martine, the band have also lined up quite a few guests to help deliver their musical tale, including My Brightest Diamond's Shara Worden and Becky Stark of Lavender Diamond, who will reportedly be singing the parts of specific characters on the album, as well as My Morning Jacket front-man Jim James, Robyn Hitchcock and Rebecca Gates of the Spinanes.
In other Decemberists news, the third and final volume of their single series, Always the Bridesmaid, recently hit the shops, boasting the tracks "Record Year for Rainfall" and "Raincoat Song" - two songs the band say are "particularly suited for this weather we're having," which we assume means wet and cold.
At this time, the Decemberists have no tour dates scheduled but they do have a tracklisting available for The Hazards of Love. Here it is:
1. "Prelude"
2. "The Hazards of Love 1 (The Prettiest Whistles Won't Wrestle the Thistles Undone)"
3. "A Bower Scene"
4. "Won't Want for Love (Margaret in the Taiga)"
5. "The Hazards of Love 2 (Wager All)"
6. "The Queen's Approach"
7. "Isn't it a Lovely Night?"
8. "The Wanting Comes in Waves / Repaid"
9. "An Interlude"
10. "The Rake's Song"
11. "The Abduction of Margaret"
12. "The Queen's Rebuke / The Crossing"
13. "Annan Water"
14. "Margaret in Captivity"
15. The Hazards of Love 3 (Revenge!)"
16. The Wanting Comes in Waves (Reprise)"
17. The Hazards of Love 4 (The Drowned)"
The Decemberists "O Valencia"
Coming back soon! If our developer were more machine than man they'd already be here. Useless meatsack.
