Seattle District
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers hydraulic engineer Dennis Mekkers
clients are not your typical engineering firm clientele. He
often finds himself answering to the environmental needs of
endangered salmon rather than to the demands of corporate
A graduate of the University of
Washington, Mekkers completed his civil engineering degree
in 1995 and a master's two years later, and quickly landed
a position with the Seattle Army Corps of Engineers. Mekkers
admits he entered the field of engineering for the job security.
But after studying civil engineering, the 35-year-old found
a way to mix interests in the social sciences with engineering
by pursuing a career in hydraulics and hydrology. "I
really would have liked to have been a sociologist or anthropologist
as a first preference, but it dawned on me that a career in
the social sciences might not be the most practical way to
make a living," he says. "The practice of civil
engineering [is] an excellent avenue through which to render
meaningful services to society."
In 2000, the Washington state native
completed the first dam removal project for the Seattle Districtthe
Goldborough Creek Dam located in Mason County near the city
of Shelton, Wash. Mekkers was responsible for identifying
a hydraulically feasible approach for the $4.5 million restoration
of the creek.
"The channel had degraded
substantially over the years, so removal involved dismantling
the dam and restoring the stream gradient with a series of
weirs, or grade control structures, in a fashion similar to
a stairs-landing-stairs approach," says the former president
of the University of Washington's American Society of Civil
Engineers student chapter. "Weirs are designed to be
passable by salmon and to minimize adverse downstream impacts,
such as excessive sediment transport and/or induced flooding."
In the past, Mekkers has evaluated
the hydrologic behavior of wetlands, supported the Corps'
Floodplain Management services program and been involved in
dam safety inspections and investigations. He is currently
working on a fish passage facility for the Howard A. Hanson
Dam Additional Water Supply project. Located on the Green
River in King County, Wash., the $50-million project will
provide downstream passage for juvenile chinook, coho, and
steelhead salmon. Additional water will be stored for municipal
and industrial use by the city of Tacoma and for low-flow
"Seattle District is a federal
entity with extensive environmental, regulatory, and water
resources-related responsibilities over a large geographical
area," Mekkers says. "Endangered Species Act-related
issues are prevalent throughout our jurisdiction and we must
bring an environmental awareness to bear on everything we
do." In June 2001, Mekkers was honored by Corps as the
Seattle District Engineer of the Year in recognition of his
work on past projects for the district. An active member of
ASCE's Seattle section, he recently took over as chairman
of its Water Resources Technical Committee.
Mekkers plans to develop his hydraulic
engineering skills and assist in advancing hydraulic understanding
to be more consistent with societys present and future
water resource needs.

Discussion about
Coding / writing on a Chromebook while offline?
Samsung's Chromebook 2 became available for pre-order yesterday. At $399, it's not as cheap as previous offerings, but it packs a bit more power than earlier models (for what it's worth, I always found my o.g. Samsung Chromebook to be a bit pokey).
Anyway, a conversation I saw on Twitter earlier today got me wondering about its feasibility for doing work that involves either coding or writing.
What sorts of Chrome apps are people using to write (preferably with Markdown support) or even code (general HTML, CSS, and throwing stuff up on a LAMP stack running on our NAS)? And how does this work if you don't have a solid wifi connection (e.g., some coffee shops have pretty spotty and slow wifi).
On a similar situation, Lifehacker put up a post from a developer that completely migrated over to an iPad (lifehacker.com/how-i-ditched-my-laptop-for-an-ipad...) when on the go.
While not entirely the same it does seem doable if you take the time to evaluate your workflow.

MediaTek's quad-core processor might soon emerge on shelves inside handsets coming from leading mobile phone makers out there, the latest reports on the matter suggest.
Phone makers such as Sony and Motorola are said to plan the launch of such devices, along with LG, Huawei, ZTE and Lenovo.
Just as previous rumors on this suggested, MediaTek's MT6589 chip is highly appealing to vendors due to its low cost, which would allow them to launch devices at reduced price tags.
Manufactured using the 28nm process, the chipset is clocked in at 1.0GHz-1.2GHz and offers support for L DDR2 memory, 720p screen resolution, and full HD video recording.
While no official announcement on the matter has been made so far, rumor has it that the first devices powered by the processor might be launched in March this year.

Princess Carnival Provence Lavender Relaxing Mask Review
It's been unusually warm around these parts. Honestly, it doesn't feel like Christmas because of this crazy weather but more like Spring.
But hey, there was a day or two where the moisture was completely sucked out of my skin and the bite of cold in the weather made me go "Brrrr!' and shake my entire body like a little penguin.
I suspect more of those days are on the horizon that's why I've been stocking up on facial sheet masks. It's one of my top picks for keeping my skin looking less than dull and extra hydrated in the cold weather.
Let's take a peek at Princess Carnival Provence Lavender Relaxing Mask.

Schoolboy suffers horrific double break below the knee - Injury update
South African schoolboy Martin Groenewald snapped his leg in two places during a match that was televised live across the nation at the weekend. It was horrific to see, but the good news is that the 18-year-old has since had surgery and is recovering well.
Grey College (Bloemfontein) vs Grey High (Port Elizabeth) is one of the oldest fixtures on the South Africa schools calendar, dating way back to 1929 when the two sides first met.
There were thousands on hand to watch the occasion at the weekend, but unfortunately post match it wasn't the 50-28 Grey Bloem victory everyone was talking about, as Groenewald suffered arguably one of the worst leg injuries seen in rugby.
Tackled by his opposite number, the lock landed heavily as his right leg buckled beneath him and the pressure of the two players caused a severe break in two places below the knee.
Groenewald, who has reportedly signed a contract with the Blue Bulls, broke his tibia and fibula.
It was clear for all to see, and apparently hear, as the referee stopped the match instantly and players from both sides turned away in shock after realising what had happened.
Medics rushed the field and he was treated on the spot before being moved into an ambulance and rushed off to Bloemfontein Mediclinic for further treatment.
The resultant surgery was a success and he was due to be released today, but will take up to four months to recover, and then will need to start a rehabilitation program.
"I spoke to Martin's father this morning and it seems the operation was a success," said Grey High coach, and former Cheetahs lock, Rory Duncan. He added that assistant coach Tim Fraser had seen Martin after the operation.
"Tim says he was in a certain amount of pain but it was slightly alleviated by the fact that he had 20 Collegiate girls next to his hospital bed."
If you'd like to send a message of support to Martin, you can leave a comment below or tweet him
PLEASE NOTE: The leg break, and the few minutes that followed, can be seen below for those that are interested. The first fifteen seconds are not recommended for sensitive viewers.

Injury occurs, all team mates scatter from the crumpled body. I get that it's massively horrific, (and I'd probably be off) but might have been nice if one of them tried to stick by his head end..
Congratulations for making RugbyDump, perhaps not the way he wanted too, but I'm sure he'll be on again in the future for more positive things. Good luck and glad to hear the recovery is; so far, going well. Hope you get back to the field soon.

I have been that player, Tib & Fib mid shaft full break.
I have an IM nail for the rest of my days, but it didn't stop me playing. To prove a point to people that said my leg wasn't strong enough to last a tough 80 mins, I ran the Dublin City marathon in 3hrs 55mins 22sec. I lift more weight now than I did before the break. The reason, I concentrated on the way I exercise and wouldn't let it beat me.
I can tell you now It will be tough, you will feel like throwing in the towel some days and you will probably be fearful of tackles when you get to play but remember this you hit hard before the break and nothing has changed you can still hit big.
When you get the first month over you mail or tweet me and I'll give you some tips for getting your head back in the game.
Take it from someone who has been there and returned to the pitch and is still playing at 39, 15years after the break.
Get well soon lad.

[COLOR=royalblue]"In the standard tests without FSAA & anitotropic filtering, the FX 5600 Ultra seems to be just about the same or slower than a GeForce 4 Ti 4200 8x & Radeon 9500 PRO. This might be due to the reduced pixel pipelines (4x1 alias 2x2 (NV31) as opposed to 4x2 in NV25). With 4xFSAA, it appears to reach nearly double the performance of the 4200, beating a 4800 as well, but it loses out to the Radeon 9500 PRO. It's a similar picture with the anisotropic filtering. In the pixel shader tests from 3D Mark 2001, it beats the 4200/2800, but loses in the vertex shader tests. In both tests, it clearly loses to the Radeon 9500 PRO."[/COLOR]

Nass El Ghiwane
Nass el Ghiwane was formed in the late 60's by four young men from the poor district of Hay el Mohammadi in industrial Casablanca. Laarbi Batma (who came from the Chaouia region to Kariane Jdid) met Boujemaa Hagour (who came form the Tata (Morocco) region to Derb Moulay Cherif) through their mutual friend Omar Essayed. They were all performing in the theater troupe of Tayeb Essidiki. While performing the piece "Al Majdoub" for Parisian crowds in the summer of 1969, they had the idea of using traditional music as a way to express themselves onstage.

A water main break along Horizon Drive left dozens of hotels, motels, and restaraunts without water Sunday morning.
A representative with Ute Water says an eight inch concrete pipe fractured during the early morning hours, and the water had to be shut off to complete the repair.
The water was shut off for about an hour, starting at around 8:30.
A hotel manager tells 11 News he was "not really excited" about the break, seeing as how this is what he considers to be the busiest weekend of the year.

Mycophenolate Mofetil and Cyclosporine to Treat Relapsing Aplastic Anemia
- Full Text View

- How to Read a Study Record
This study will examine the safety and effectiveness of a new drug combination for treating patients with severe aplastic anemia. Patients with aplastic anemia produce too few blood cells, causing fatigue, easy bruising and bleeding, and susceptibility to infections. In many cases, the very low blood counts result from an autoimmune process-that is, the patient's own immune system suppresses production of blood cells by the bone marrow. Although immune-suppressing drugs, such as cyclosporine, can restore normal cell counts, many patients have disease relapses. These patients require long-term therapy with cyclosporine, which can cause harmful side effects. This study will examine whether a lower dose of cyclosporine given together with mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) can maintain blood counts as effectively as full-dose cyclosporine treatment, and whether MMF alone can reduce the chances of future relapses.
Patients 4 years of age and older with severe aplastic anemia who have relapsed after immune suppressing therapy may be eligible for this study. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either standard cyclosporine therapy or experimental therapy with cyclosporine and MMF.
Patients receiving standard cyclosporine therapy will receive a full dose of the drug for at least 3 months. Those taking both cyclosporine and MMF will take MMF plus half-dose cyclosporine for 3 months and continue MMF for an additional 6 months. Both drugs are taken twice a day by mouth. All patients will have about 120 milliliters (4 ounces) of blood drawn at the beginning of the study to evaluate immune system activity and bone marrow function, and to look for genetic material of certain viruses. Bone marrow aspirations and biopsies will be done at the beginning of the study, and at 6 and 12 months. For these tests, the area of the hip is anesthetized and a special needle is used to draw bone marrow from the hipbone.
The patient's local doctor will be asked to do blood tests for chemistries, liver function and cyclosporine levels weekly for the first month and then every other week. Patients will return to NIH for evaluations 3, 6 and 12 months after treatment and then once a year. About 100 ml (7 tablespoons) of blood will be drawn at each visit.

Primary Purpose: Treatment
|Official Title:
|A Randomized Trial for the Treatment of Relapsing Aplastic Anemia With Mycophenolate Mofetil (MMF) and Cyclosporine (CSA)
|Estimated Enrollment:
|Study Start Date:
|June 2000
|Estimated Study Completion Date:
|March 2002
Aplastic anemia is characterized by trilineage hematopoietic failure with an apparently empty bone marrow. While the precise mechanism of disease has yet to be elucidated, much evidence indicates an immunologically mediated pathophysiology. Clinical trials have shown that approximately 75-80% of patients who are treated with immunosuppressive drugs, especially the combination of antithymocyte globulin (ATG) and cyclosporine (CSA), demonstrate a return of hematopoieses and improved blood counts. This therapy now is considered standard care for the treatment of aplastic anemia in all patients who lack a histocompatibility antigen-matched sibling donor and also in older patients regardless of donor status. However, with longer length of evaluation of patients after initial treatment, it is becoming increasingly clear that a substantial proportion will suffer relapse of pancytopenia. ATG and CSA do not appear to cure the disease in these patients but only disrupt a chronic autoimmune process. Recent data from our own series of patients treated with ATG and CSA, and studies of European patients who are treated with antilymphocyte globulin (ALG) and CSA, indicate that approximately 1/3 of responding patients will relapse and require treatment within 1-2 years of discontinuation of CSA. About 15% of patients become dependent on continued CSA administration in order to maintain blood counts. Chronic CSA toxicities include increased susceptibility to infections, hypertension, and irreversible renal damage, as well as hypertrichosis, hyperaesthesias, gingival hyperplasia, headaches, tremors, and other troubling complaints; there is also a possible increased risk of late malignant diseases. Therefore, a major priority in clinical research in aplastic anemia is the development of strategies to produce more durable responses, as well as to identify immunosuppressive agents that can be used as effectively and with fewer side affects than cyclosporine. Mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) is a novel immunosuppressive drug with proven efficacy in the treatment of graft rejection in renal transplantation. MMF has a different toxicity profile from cyclosporine, and specifically does not damage the kidneys. In this study, we will randomize patients who are judged to have relapsed to receive either standard treatment with full dose cyclosporine or half dose cyclosporine combined with MMF. We anticipate that the combination of cyclosporine with MMF will be as effective as conventional high dose cyclosporine for the purpose of treating relapse of aplastic anemia and would provide a less toxic regimen for long-term treatment of this disease.
|Genders Eligible for Study:
|Accepts Healthy Volunteers:
Subjects with a history of severe aplastic anemia successfully treated by immunosuppression will be included.
Subjects with relapse, as defined above by either return of blood counts to satisfy criteria for severity or consistently declining blood counts will be included.
Subjects age 4 and above will be included.
Subjects with the presence of a medical or surgical condition making survival for at least 3 months unlikely will be excluded.
Subjects with inability to confer informed consent or assent, in the case of a child, either written or verbal, will be excluded.

All in a Day's Work: I wondered if writing fiction mattered
Brian Morton '79
Writer, New York City
My teachers helped prepare me for being a writer. Joe Papaleo was forthright about the literary life and its difficulties. I also became very interested in politics at SLC—and ended up as an editor at Dissent for fifteen years—and I wondered if writing fiction mattered when there was so much misery and suffering. Ilja Wachs pointed me to Schiller's letters on "the aesthetic education of man." They helped me to realize that in a world that is dominated by money values, the aesthetic realm, the realm of play, has its own value. Even art that isn't directly political can be socially important.
Vicki Ford '60
Councilwoman, Eastchester, NY
When I came to SLC, the teacher training program placed me in a Bronxville school. I fell in love with the community and was fortunate enough to raise my six children there. For the last twelve years, I've been on the town council in Eastchester, which includes the villages of Tuckahoe and Bronxville. In this job, you need to be a good listener, and my goal is to empower people to do things they don't think they're capable of doing. The good news is that with community support much has been accomplished. Of course, there are always problems, but Eastchester is a positive place, and we usually achieve positive results.
Lowell Miller '70
President, Miller/Howard Investments, Woodstock, NY
I surprised myself, founding an investment management business. We handle about seven hundred million dollars in a conservative style. But it was never my ambition to be in business. After SLC, I published poetry in Rolling Stone and articles in the New York Times Magazine. I wasn't making a living though, and I had this gambler side to me, so I hooked up with a computer-scientist partner. We solved some investing problems and soon began gaining clients. SLC gives you a high opinion of yourself, which makes you think that if you push on the world it will give way. In my case, it did. As in any field, it helped enormously to have strong writing skills. Articulation rules!

Office of Newborn Screening
Healthcare Providers
CCHD conference registration is open, contact hours are available, and if you're a licensed midwife, CE's are awarded. Click here to register. Phoenix, Tucson, Flagstaff.
The goal of CCHD screening of newborns is to identify those with structural heart defects usually associated with hypoxia in the newborn period that could have significant morbidity or mortality early in life with closing of the ductus arteriosus or other physiological changes early in life. Read our CCHD Implementation Timeline and a statement from the Assistant Bureau Chief Ward Jacox.
The success of the Newborn Screening program depends on the coordinated efforts of many health professionals. Medical Home and/or other Healthcare Professionals are generally responsible for: ordering the screening tests for newborn infants in their care, informing parents about the screening tests, and collection and handling of newborn screening specimens. Practitioners, and/or their contracted laboratories, may collect and send specimens for testing. Practitioners, hospitals and laboratories work together to coordinate timely collection and rapid delivery of acceptable newborn screening specimens to the Arizona Public Health Laboratory (State Lab).
- Show All
- Hide All
- Print All
The following are the responsibilities of the medical provider as a partner in the Office of Newborn Screening:
Inform Parents about Newborn Screening
- Convey the importance of newborn screening and consequences of delayed identification of affected infants:
- there is no way of predicting affected babies
- most are identified with no family history
- most affected babies look normal at birth
- permanent damage can be done before symptoms appear and some babies can die
- Provide educational materials to parents of any baby who has a bloodspot test ordered:
- Newborn Screening Parent brochures (in English and Spanish) can be ordered at no charge from the Office of Newborn Screening and give parents contact information and a description of the newborn screening process.
- Carriers for CF, hemoglobinopathies and some other disorders are identified:
- CF and occasionally other carriers and hemoglobin traits are detected for every confirmed disease case detected, 8-10 carriers are identified.
- Carrier information is important for the baby when grown and planning a family it should be recorded in the baby's medical record
- Having a carrier baby should also prompt parents to check carrier status for both of them so that they know the chances of having an affected baby in a subsequent pregnancy. If a baby is a carrier it means that at least one of his parents is also a carrier but it is possible that both parents could be carriers and in that case they could have a baby with a disease.
Collect Acceptable Bloodspot Specimens
- One large drop of blood per circle yields a uniform amount of blood in each punch for testing
- Mother's name and DOB included – needed for matching specimens
- Accurate contact information for mother – needed for notification of abnormal results
Ensure Timely Collection of Specimens
- For well babies:
- Ideal collection time for first screens is at 24-36 hours of age
- Collect prior to transfer to another hospital or discharge
- Medical home will collect second screen at the first outpatient visit or 5-10 days of age, whichever comes first
- For NICU babies:
- Ideal collection time for first screens is at 24-36 hours of age
- Collect prior to factors that influence results even if earlier than 24 hours of age (transfusions, ECMO, therapies, parenteral feeding)
- Collect prior to transfer to another hospital
- If in hospital at 5 days of age, collect second screen between 5-10 days of age or before discharge, whichever comes first
Transport Specimens Promptly to the State Lab
- Each specimen sent no more than 24 hours after collection or on the next business day (Hospitals may use their own couriers or free ADHS-provided FedEx overnight delivery. Other providers can send by mail or courier.)
- Package sent each weekday (5 per week)
- Friday package especially important for delivery on Monday so that no more than the weekend delays testing
Document Newborn Screening Results in the Medical Record
- Verify that results of hearing screening and both bloodspot screens have been recorded in the baby's medical record
- Medical home will have to ask for bloodspot results if their doctor's name was not on the collection kit
- Newborn screening results should be noted in the NICU discharge summary sent to the medical home
- To obtain newborn screening results, call 602-364-1409 or fax a request to 602-542-4099 for any missing reports
Follow-Up on any Abnormal Results
- Phone call, fax or letter from newborn screening follow-up
- Obtain further testing
- Consult with a specialist, if needed
- Obtain diagnosis or normal results
- If a disorder is confirmed, refer to CRS or specialty care
- Send copies of test results from other labs to the Office of Newborn Screening
Perform and Report Hearing Screening
- Hearing screening should be done prior to discharge from the hospital—all babies should be screened by one month of age
- Repeat screening as outpatient, if a referral
- Unless high risk who go direct to a diagnostic test with an audiologist
- Report all testing weekly to the Office of Newborn Screening
- Include identifying information (mother's name and DOB to help match results and avoid duplicates in database)

Lucy Hale's technicolor unicorn costume.
Photo: MTV News
Having Halloween on a Wednesday means that the holiday festivities have the potential to stretch out over an entire week. Not only does this mean candy, candy, and MORE candy, but it also means that you have the opportunity for not just one but many costumes. You may have rocked your showstopping Halloween look on Friday or Saturday past, but there is still ACTUAL Halloween to worry about. If you need some inspiration, celebs are a great place to look for costume ideas. We especially loved Lucy Hale's technicolor unicorn costume, complete with horn, rainbow mane and furry boots. This look is part "My Little Pony" and party candy raver, and avoids the "sexy" costume cliche by virtue of being so totally over the top. Lucy is committed, and we're into it.

The relationship between Pierce and Hunnicut has become the archetype for most of the bromances we see on television today. When not at work, the two spend all their free time together drinking, playing pranks, and trying to bang nurses. But at the end of the day, no woman will ever come between them.
The bromance between Richie and The Fonz is every parent's nightmare. You want your son to come home with a nice, clean-cut young man, not some filthy ginzo greaser from the wrong side of town. But despite the fact that the TV show took place in the 1950's, the Cunningham family was very tolerant of Richie's unconventional bromance. They eventually went as far as to let the Fonz rent out a room at their home. How progressive.
As with most buddy-cop shows, a bromance is almost required. But given the sweet 70's hairstyles and kick-ass clothing, there was little room for doubt that this relationship would blossom into something more than just a workplace acquaintance. Now, if only Huggy Bear could find a nice bro to settle down with.
Consider posting a comment.
I'm a little disappointed JD and Turk from Scrubs isn't on here…
Wild Bill and Charlie Utter? They were only in like 4 episodes together. And it wasn't even like this friendship was a focal point of the show (Seth and Sol anyone). They were an afterthought that played more as a self-destructive brother and his levelheaded keeper dynamic.
Outside of that and the head-scratcher of a last pick, decent list.
Damn, that's a good one.
List is not complete with Turk and JD missing
Charlie goes to visit Bill's grave like a mourning widow. I always
thought they had a bromance going. You are right about Seth and Sol,
though. I was going to go with them instead.

Australia's youngest Olympian at the London Games, diver Brittany Broben, leapt into medal calculations with an impressive 10m platform semi-final performance on Thursday.
The 16-year-old schoolgirl qualified third for Thursday night's final, with teammate and close friend Melissa Wu ranked fourth.
And the Australian duo refuse to believe standout Chinese diver Roulin Chen has the gold all but around her neck.
"It's never sewn up," said Wu.
Chen was the top qualifier with 407.25 points - a whopping 47.35 points ahead of next best, Canadian Meaghan Benfeito (359.90), followed by Broben (359.55) and Wu (355.60).
"There are a lot of nerves but I have been controlling them pretty good at the moment, so hopefully I can do that tonight," Broben said.
Asked if a medal was possible, she replied: "I have no idea, I'm just going to go out there and give it my best."
But Wu believed Broben was well placed entering the final.
"I think it's amazing how she's doing," Wu said.
"She's diving really well and she seems really confident and is really enjoying the experience, I'm so happy for her."

Jamaican sentenced to life in NY
Bjorn Burke, Staff Reporter
One of three Jamaicans convicted in relation to the March 2010 Rochester, New York drug-related triple homicide, has been sentenced to four consecutive life prison terms.
He is 44-year-old Andrew Wright.
According to the United States Attorney's Office, Wright was the last of the three to be sentenced following the 2010 drug-related killings.
THE STAR gathered that the other two men, Richard Anderson and Aston Johnson, were also sentenced to four consecutive life terms plus five years in March.
All three men are believed to have travelled from Arizona to New York to murder three others following an argument over the apportioning of proceeds from a large-scale ganja trafficking network, prosecutors said.

New Course: Gendering the Raj
By Dr. Alison Fletcher
I am very excited about a new course called "Gendering the Raj," which will expand the classes for students that are interested in gender studies, as well as adding a region of the world that the history department does not cover. The course will explore the relationship between gender, imperialism, and nationalism in India. We will look at the real and symbolic roles that both British and Indian women and men played in colonial and post-colonial India, providing an opportunity for students to explore wider theoretical issues relating to race, sex, gender, colonialism and culture. Colonialism involved more than the simple economic and political transformation of colonized societies. It also entailed dramatic social and cultural changes, not simply among the colonized, but among the colonizers as well. Gender came to play a key role in these transformations, as gender norms were defined and deployed by colonial states as a means to justify and legitimize colonial rule, to maintain class and racial hierarchies (both in the colonies and at 'home') and to demarcate the often fuzzy boundaries between colonizer and colonized. For the colonized, asserting and re-defining their own gender norms became a means of anti-colonial resistance, of forging national identities, and of delimiting the boundaries between various religious, ethnic, class, and caste.

TI reports financial results for 1Q12
Conference call on TI website at 4:30 p.m. Central time today
DALLAS, April 23, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Texas Instruments Incorporated (TI) (NASDAQ: TXN) today announced first-quarter revenue of $3.12 billion, net income of $265 million and earnings per share of 22 cents. EPS includes 10 cents of charges associated with the company's acquisition of National Semiconductor and restructuring.
"As we expected, our business cycle bottomed in the first quarter, and early signs of growth began to emerge," said Rich Templeton, TI's chairman, president and CEO. "Orders were up 13 percent, and backlog is growing again. Particularly encouraging is the breadth of increased orders across geographical regions and markets, including the industrial sector.
"Sales in our Analog segment were about level with the prior quarter. We continue to make progress with Silicon Valley Analog, formerly National Semiconductor, as this product line gains traction with customers and holds a strong position in the important industrial market. Sales in Embedded Processing were up 7 percent led by growth in the automotive and communications infrastructure markets. Sales in our Wireless segment declined sharply as we entered the final phase of our exit from baseband products, which were less than 3 percent of total sales in the quarter. We are expanding the reach of our Wireless segment into multiple markets and experiencing strong diversity in our design-ins.
"We're poised for growth and share gains as markets rebound. Our product portfolio is strong, and our design position with customers is excellent. Our inventory is well-staged, and production in our factories is ramping. Our teams are confident and hungry, and we expect 2012 to be a good year for growth."
1Q12 financial summary
Amounts are in millions of dollars, except per-share amounts.
Total acquisition-related charges associated with TI's September 2011 acquisition of National Semiconductor are $174 million in the first quarter. These charges include $21 million in cost of revenue associated with the contract termination of a distributor. The remainder, $153 million, includes amortization of intangibles, retention bonuses and other items. Results also include $10 million of restructuring charges associated with the planned closings of two older factories announced in January 2012.
Revenue in the quarter includes insurance proceeds of about $65 million related to interruption of TI's business operations as a result of the 2011 Japan earthquake.
Compared with a year ago, lower gross profit in the quarter primarily reflects lower revenue. Compared with the fourth quarter, lower gross profit reflects lower revenue, which was partially offset by lower charges to cost of revenue related to the National acquisition and an increase in insurance proceeds.
Operating profit declined from a year ago primarily due to lower gross profit, total acquisition-related charges and higher operating expenses due to the inclusion of Silicon Valley Analog. Compared with the prior quarter, operating profit was higher primarily due to lower restructuring charges and lower total acquisition-related charges.
Analog: (includes High Volume Analog & Logic, Power Management, High Performance Analog and Silicon Valley Analog)
Embedded Processing: (includes digital signal processor and microcontroller catalog products that are sold across a wide variety of markets as well as application-specific products that are used in communications infrastructure and automotive electronics)
Wireless: (includes OMAP™ applications processors, connectivity products and baseband products)
Other: (includes DLP® products, custom ASIC products, calculators and royalties as well as products sold under transitional supply agreements associated with recently acquired factories)
1Q12 additional financial information
For the second quarter of 2012, TI expects:
The second quarter's results will be negatively affected by about $100 million of acquisition charges and about $10 million of restructuring charges. Combined, these items will impact EPS by about 6 cents.
TI will update its second-quarter outlook on June 11, 2012.
For the full year of 2012, TI continues to expect approximately the following:
The tax rate estimate is based on current tax law and does not assume reinstatement of the federal R&D tax credit, which expired at the end of 2011.

Frangipani Absolute by Ormonde Jayne
Now this is a really good frangipani scent in my humble opinion ! It smells just like frangipani - the living flower.It's got the bit of pollen going on ,a touch of flowery spice of a fresh flower,the delicate yet quite distinctive aroma. Fab. I do love this one. Well done OJ !

No gameday party is complete without some chicken wings! Every time we host a superbowl party, there has been chicken wings on the menu. I am a vegetarian and personally don't care if there is chicken wings or not, but when I host a party, I want everyone who is there to be more than delighted about the food spread that is there and being surrounded by a sizable number of omnivores (including the one I live with), whether to make chicken wings or not is never a question.
Chicken wings, as popular as they are, are also super easy to make. There are a few different ways of making them – boil or steam the wings with or without some flavorings and then bake them with the rest of the flavorings or more flavorings, bake them directly with the flavorings, marinate them or not marinate them and fry them. Whatever method you choose, it will be hard to go wrong with them. They are chicken wings after all.
I used the boil them with some flavorings and then bake them with more flavorings method here. It took me about 40 mins from start to finish.
Boiled and cooked chicken wings ready to go into the oven after being coated with one more round of flavorings.
- Chicken Wings - 1/2 lb (about 6)
- Water - 3 cups
- Cayenne Pepper Hot Sauce - 2 tsp
- Salt - 1 tsp
- Cayenne powder - 1/2 tsp
- Butter - 1 tbsp, melted
- Taco Seasoning - 2 tbsp
- Cayenne Pepper Hot Sauce - 1 tsp
- Salt - 1 tsp
- Garlic powder - 1 tbsp
- Heat the water with the hot sauce, cayenne powder and salt and bring to a boil.
- Add the chicken wings to it and cook for about 12-15 mins
- Preheat the oven to 375F
- In a medium bowl big enough to hold the wings, mix together the butter, taco seasoning, hot sauce, salt and garlic powder to a paste.
- Drain the wings and toss with the paste in the bowl.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and line the coated chicken wings on it.
- Bake for 15-20 mins, turning the wings once halfway through, till both sides are crisped enough.
- Serve with some blue cheese dip or ranch dressing.

MSI launches R4600 HDMI series
"5 new offerings, aimed at the HTPC market. With low power requirements, native HDMI and 7.1 sound output, we expect these cards to be a popular choice."
Published: 23rd March 2009 | Source: MSI |
HTPC ready Graphics cards from MSI
Aimed squarely at the HTPC end of the market, MSI have announced 5 new additions to their line up, and they are based on ATi's HD 4650 & HD 4670 GPU's. All the new cards feature native HDMI output and digital 7.1 sound output. With a maximum power use of 75w, they are bus powered, and don't require a PCI-e 12v power source.
Of the five new cards, three will be based on ATI's HD 4650, and two based on ATi's HD 4670. The three MSI R4650 HDMI cards will all have the GPU clocked at 600MHz, with the GDDR3 clocked at 1GHz. What seperates them is that two will be available with 512MB memory, but one will feature active cooling, the other passive cooling. The third card in this range will sport 1GB memory, and be actively cooled.
Meanwhile, the two MSI R4670 HDMI cards will have the GPU clocked at 750MHz and a memory clock of 1.746GHz. What seperates the two versions is the amount of GDDR3, one featuring 512MB and the other will have 1GB. With the small power draw and the choice of passive/active cooling, these new cards should go down well with the HTPC sector. You can view the full press release for more information. You can also discuss these new cards within our forum.

March 18, 2010
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- Wisconsin head coach Bo Ryan, along with senior guards Jason Bohannon and Trevon Hughes and junior Jon Leuer met with members of the media Thursday in preparation for Friday's opening-round NCAA tournament game against Wofford.
A complete transcript of their remarks is below:
Jason Bohannon, Trevon Hughes, Jon Leuer NCAA Press Conference - Quotes
THE MODERATOR: We'll start out with questions for the Wisconsin student athletes. Q. Jon, I was just wondering, any update on your injury and how you're feeling? LEUER: Yeah, my wrist is feeling great. Pretty much no pain anymore, and training staff did a great job in helping me out recovering. Yeah, it's fine?Q. No brace or anything?LEUER: I'll have it taped up, yeah. Q. I was talking to some of the Wofford players earlier, and they've got a lot of guys from Minnesota, three players on their roster. Do you know some of these guys personally, and do you talk to them in the off season, and what's it going to be like to face some fellows that you may have already even before? LEUER: Yeah, obviously I know they're from Minnesota. I know I've played with Jamar Diggs and Cameron Rundles a little bit. I played with them this summer a little bit. They're great guys, great players, and obviously Noah Dahlman was in my class, so I played against him in high school growing up a little bit. It's be fun to see them out on the court. We still have to compete and go at it hard. But it's fun to see those guys performing and playing well. But now I want to beat them. Q. J-Bo, this Wofford team kind of knows that they're the underdog. In fact, one of the guys was saying he watched President Barack Obama fill out his bracket and he picked Wisconsin to beat Wofford. When you face teams that are considered the underdog and you guys are considered the favorite, does that change anything for you guys? I know you approach things a lot the same, but do you look at this game as we have to win this, and does it put any pressure on you guys? BOHANNON: Any team in the NCAA tournament there's going to be a favorite and an underdog, and we're going to be a favorite for this one, but that doesn't change how we prepare for anything. We can't take them lightly. They're a very good basketball team. They play very smart basketball, and they know how to play. We can't expect anything different. We have to prepare the same way we always have and prepare for a very good game. Q. For Trevon, are you aware of 12s, 13s, those kind of seeds? You've watched the tournament growing up and the last few years there have been a lot of upsets in those match ups?HUGHES: I'll say yes, because the 12, 13 seeds plus, they have nothing to lose. They're just going out there to play like it's their last game, and basically that's how everybody is playing when they're in the tournament. The 65 teams are actually pretty good teams, so they're going to give it their all, plus the underdogs, they want to prove people wrong. We're usually the underdogs, so it's rare that we're the favorites in this one. Q. Jon, this is a smaller team. They've got three guys listed at 6'9", but they don't play significant minutes. The rest of the guys are probably 6'6", if those are accurate heights. You guys out size them. How big of an advantage is that? Do you expect to have a big game? LEUER: Well, any time we play, we want to dominate the paint and make our presence felt, all the bigs on our team want to make our presence felt inside. That's not going to change. As far as we're going to try to obviously score in the post when we get it or make a play. They have guys that play a lot bigger than what their size might indicate. You know, it really doesn't matter. Once you get out there, you have to play physical and do the same things that make you successful, otherwise no matter how big a guy is, he can play harder than you and want it more. So you always have to just be ready and stay focused and play the game. Q. Do you see Wofford as a deliberate type team, slower tempo, similar to you guys? BOHANNON: I mean, they look for good shots. Whether that means they're deliberate or they get out and run, it really doesn't matter for them. If they're finding good shots and working the ball around, they're a good team. For us we're doing the same things. Coach doesn't tell us to slow down, we're just looking for good shots and trying to get the most out of our possession. That's certainly what we want to do in the tournament is make the most out of every possession offensively and defensively. Q. Trevon, this being your final go around with the Badgers, you're going to be graduating, a lot of guys come in and they look at Sweet 16 run, that's a successful run, or Elite Eight. Do you guys go ahead and talk openly about getting to a Final Four or are you just trying to enjoy what's in front of you, or do you have that goal of we don't want to go home early? HUGHES: We definitely don't want to go home early. It's a goal. We all want to make it to the Final Four. We all dream about making it to the Final Four. I've been here before. I've been to the first round, second round, Sweet 16. I want to go deeper than that. I want to go deeper than the Elite Eight. It's me and Jason's last go around, and in past years we've had another year to come back. This is it for us. We're going to have to come out and play with chips on our shoulders and hopefully our teammates feed off of us and we can make a good run, a deep run in this tournament. Q. Jason, being your last time, as well, are you savoring the moments a little bit more maybe, the camaraderie, the hotel, being here in an environment like this? BOHANNON: Certainly. Any time we're in an environment like this, we're trying to savor the moment. For the freshmen on the team, it's the first time they've been around it. Fortunately for me and Trevon, this is our fourth go around in the NCAA tournament. A lot of other teams don't necessarily get that chance. But each time we've been here, we've wanted to make the most of it and haven't wanted to take anything for granted, and that's certainly not going to be the case this time. Q. Jon, you were talking about having grown up with Noah. How many times do you guys figure you've squared off with him, and is he one of those guys you're talking about who plays bigger than his size? LEUER: Yeah, I played him I just remember in traveling tournaments, I'd see him every once in a while. I don't really know how many times we played. But as far as him playing bigger, he's definitely one of those guys that plays bigger. He's a tough match up. He can do a lot of different things. We're just going to have to prepare for him as best we can and hopefully try to limit what he can do. Q. Trevon, because you've done this so many times and it's your fourth go around in the tournament, what have you learned from maybe tournaments past, and do you focus in more, or is now the time to kind of relax and not put pressure on yourselves? What have you learned maybe in the past that's going to help you in this tournament? HUGHES: I think we're going to be more focused, especially me because I'm a point guard. You know, in the previous years I got a little antsy, wanted to get things done like my first year starting. It's my show, I have to run the team well. So it was kind of a little nerve factor in that one. But right now, this is my fourth go around, so I know what to do. I know how to get it done, and my teammates, we've all been here. We've been fortunate enough to make it ten plus times. I think we've all got a good mindset coming into this game. We don't want to be all choked up like we came out last week, so we've got another chance to prove what we have, and I think we've got a good club.
Head Coach Bo RyanNCAA Press Conference - QuotesTHE MODERATOR: Coach, if you could give us an opening statement about the tournament and then we'll field some questions. COACH RYAN: We're happy to be here in Jacksonville, needless to say. It's a beautiful city. They've been treating us real well since we arrived, and we're looking forward to playing. We know we've got another 40 minutes, and that's all we know. Q. In your first eight years, how do you think your program has done in the NCAA tournament? When you stack all the accomplishments and setbacks, how do you feel you've done?COACH RYAN: Well, there's only one team that doesn't get a setback out of the 64/65, so I don't know, you'd probably have to ask everybody else, how do you react one way or the other? We come in, we compete, we know we're one of the rare teams that's been able to prove their worth for four months to get here, and that's all I know. I'm not grading anything from past years or anything else. We'll just get ready to play this year's.Q. Are coaches and programs judged on the NCAA tournament unfairly or fairly? Do you feel they're judged on what they do in the last month of the season? COACH RYAN: I don't know. You know, there's a lot of people that make judgments that you could care less about what they judge anyhow. So we get to live in this. Everybody has got an opinion. We've been through this before. That's the way it is. We just know what we're trying to do as a staff. We know what our players are trying to do as a team. And there's nothing else on our mind right now thinking about the last eight years, how we're rated or I wouldn't know how to answer that. Q. You played Wofford a couple years ago. The Wofford coach said it was kind of a nightmarish game to him; he was so happy to get out of town. COACH RYAN: He only said that because of the uniforms we had on.Q. Did you watch that game?COACH RYAN: My assistant as the scout watched that game. I've watched all the current games. We had throw back uniforms on, I believe, that night, back to 1941 when we won the National Championship. Do you remember? No, okay. And we watched it, and they beat Purdue, was it that year or the year before or the year after? They've been on the road and done some really neat things and won against South Carolina. They're a really good team. We're sitting there watching Old Dominion, we're watching Robert Morris, all these different games. When it comes to this time of year, every team is a winner, every team has good players, and just things fall in place. You never know how far you can go, or if things don't fall in place, you never know how short your trip can be. We're just trying to get ready, and what happened a couple years ago I don't think will have much effect here tomorrow. But it was an experience for both teams, and they did some different things during the year, we did some different things during the year, so now we're in 2010. We'll see what happens. Q. Wofford's player Noah Dahlman is a Minnesota guy. He said his parents don't even have a TV, so they'll probably listen to the game on the radio. Wofford has got three guys in Minnesota, kind of in your backyard, and Wisconsin has four guys from Minnesota. How well do you know their players or were able to scout their players, and did you hear about their players, the Wofford kids from Minnesota, and as they were going through high school and their recruitment process? Do you know them pretty well?COACH RYAN: Yeah, we're aware of them. A lot of them probably played on our campus in some of the team camps. A lot of guys that come through play during the June or July, whatever I think it's June. We have our individual camp, our advanced camp, things like that, guys from Minnesota, Illinois, Wisconsin, wherever. But with AAU basketball the way it is and the tournaments in the summer, I mean, you see a lot of players and you know of a lot of players, and each campus has X number of scholarships each year to give out. And the nice part is every time you see a young man from anywhere that has a scholarship, you're thinking, that's pretty good for the family, a great experience for the young man, whether it's in South Carolina, Wisconsin, Minnesota, wherever it is. It's all about what we're doing here these next four or five days on this trip and then the next trip if you get to play on. It's all about the experience. Those guys were fortunate to get scholarships to Wofford and get the chance to play in the NCAA tournament right now. I'm sure they're thankful for it just like our guys are. Q. This time of year do you worry more about your team and how it does and how it does since what you've worked on since October, or do you worry about the team you have to play tomorrow? COACH RYAN: As the head coach, I worry about what we're doing. And that's a very good question because I know sometimes people get into this time of the year and they oh, we're playing a big team, we're playing a small team, we're playing a quick team. I think everybody has played a team similar to the team they're playing in the NCAA tournament. So it's still about the head coach making sure that what you're doing, you're refining that, tweaking it maybe a little, but going to your strengths.The assistant coach that's in charge of the scout, he's the one that's presenting a different team out on the court for the past three days in practice. So his concerns are more with the other team. You present what they do, we're going to do our thing. I look at the practice tapes to see if there was something that was giving us some trouble, having of course already looked at other films on teams. But our assistants have done such a good job over the years of the nuances of the teams we're playing, especially when you're playing like a Northwestern. I think Greg Gard knows Northwestern's offense as well as anybody that's ever coached under Petey Carroll or any of his disciples. I worry about us because it's still on our points per possession, on our sometimes the ball doesn't go in. Sometimes it's you try to make that something that only happens every once in a while. But as we know, it can be streaky.But defensively taking care of the basketball, that's giving us a chance to compete in most of our games. Q. I watched your conference tournament and you suffered through one of the worst shooting games all year when you got beat, and I couldn't believe how you held your team together at the end, I really couldn't, to still have a chance to win the game. You shot the ball, you missed lay ups, you missed everything. COACH RYAN: And you actually kept your TV on the whole game?
Q. I have a TV.COACH RYAN: But you watched that whole game. If I was in an establishment serving beverages, I don't think I'd have been watching that game the last 10 minutes. So if you watched that game through the whole thing I had to watch it because I was coaching it. But you know, I appreciate what you said if you've ever coached for a long period of time, you know there are things that that happen. We have one shot, it's a tie game or we have a one point lead. I told the guys, I'm hard to impress, but you do impress me with that, but now we've got to get better. We can't let that happen again. Q. Have you seen your father down here yet, or have you had a chance to catch up with him, because I understand you guys go to the Final Four together. COACH RYAN: We do. We go every year. Last year is the first year he's missed. It was in Detroit, but I don't want you to quote me on saying the reason he missed it was because it was in Detroit. He could not get there, and he wasn't in the best of health. But he's ready for Indianapolis. The plane tickets are all set. But he will not be here because the other day a player that he coached who has done pretty well asked him to present him at a Hall of Fame induction. My dad said, well, I can't, I'm down here in Fort Myers. Tough break, I know, but he couldn't get up there.The guy flew down, got him a plane ticket, flew him back, and he's in Chester, Pennsylvania, right now at a Hall of Fame deal, and he can't be here. He's hoping we can go further. Q. Talk about Noah Dahlman and his style of play and defending him tomorrow. COACH RYAN: Tough player, good hands, uses angles well. He's a post player that yours truly I've had a couple like that, and he does the most with what he has, and any time you have a player that does that, you always know you can ride him. And they have other good players obviously, but he's done a very good job of executing his strengths to the team concept, and to become player of the year in a conference, you have to be doing something right. And his team wins, so...Q. What does experience mean in this tournament, nine straight for you here, obviously the first for Wofford. COACH RYAN: You know what, they've played in the conference tournament, they've played together for a while. It's not like there's a bunch of freshmen for them out there playing. They've been through this. They've played a lot of tough teams on the road. They've played out in Santa Clara, a neutral court. Plus players now coming into college have played in so many tournaments away from home like this. So I don't think it's what it once was maybe when you say about experience. I just think these guys have played so much basketball now that I think that's neutralized. Just a personal opinion. Q. When you look around, there's a lot of Philly coaches here. I mean, what's that like, and why do you think so many college coaches around Philly are coaching at this level?COACH RYAN: Well, what we should probably tell the audience is anybody from Philly that sits in the stands thinks they're a coach. Have you ever met anybody from that area that didn't think they could coach? So you learn early about opinions. You know, it's the playgrounds, the schools, the tradition, what the college coaches in the area, the Big 5 plus Drexel and Delaware not being too far away and Newark, you've got basketball in the water there. The Delaware River, when I was growing up you could walk across it not that anybody was supernatural, but it was so polluted. But you figured people stayed in gyms a little bit more or on the playgrounds. We didn't swim a lot. So everybody played a lot of basketball. McKinney, the Lynems, Westhead and all those guys, and I'm going to stop there because I'll miss another 900. I grew up loving the game, I grew up across the street from Jack McKinney, my family and his member, and for those that remember Jack, basketball was just something in Chester, in that area, that once it got a hold of you, you were never going to let it go. Q. Just to follow up on an earlier question, your father, Butch, who is he presenting at the awards banquet?COACH RYAN: I think it's Tony Calise. Is that who it is? There's some other people going in, but I think it's Tony. Did you see the list? Q. No, I'm going to check it out, though. Thanks. COACH RYAN: You're welcome. THE MODERATOR: That's all the time we have for Coach Ryan. Good luck, Coach. Thank you.
