Tucked into Central Texas Powersports' Top 100 entry this year was a letter of recommendation from Tony Moseley, Kawasaki's central regional sales manager. In the letter, Moseley discusses owner Steve Littlefield's history in the industry and 20-something years with Kawasaki, noting that the first year after Littlefield took over his current dealership, sales tripled.
"Success and prosperity has come to Steve as a result of his honesty, character, and by placing the benefit of his customers and the goodwill of the community above personal gain," Moseley writes. He ends by calling the dealership one of the best-planned designs he has seen in his 24 years in the industry. Taking a look at what Littlefield has done with his store one can see why Moseley wrote this. The judges were convinced.
Built a bit more than four years ago, this multiline (Kawasaki, Lehman Trikes, Suzuki, Yamaha, Can-Am) dealership in Georgetown, Texas, features a unique corner entrance that allows customers, upon entering, to see the entirety of the massive store — from the well-stocked showroom to the expansive parts and accessories department. The P&A department is an open, well-merchandized collection of off-road and street-riding gear and goods.
Security is addressed by using a western-style split-rail fence — which matches the store's western theme — to corral the area and funnel customers past a cashier before they leave the department. Individual kiosks enable parts customers to meet face-to-face with employees. Cabinets behind the kiosks are where the fast-moving parts are stored.
Customers drop off their units for service work at a comfortable, soundproof write-up station. Techs work inside a 5,500 sq. ft. service area that is centrally heated and cooled. Customers who purchase a Pit Pass get accessory and tire installation done for free.
Central Texas Powersports requires that all sales, P&A and service employees receive video training while F&I workers attend classes with Assurant in Atlanta. All management must attend and graduate from RPM Group's management development programs.
The dealership contracts with Call Bright, a company that records and tracks phone calls. allowing the store to track the effectiveness of its advertising campaigns. It does so by using 10 different phone numbers in its various media efforts. For example, the store knows that 80 percent of the calls come from those who got the number off the store's website. Managers use the recorded calls for training purposes. CTP now has an employee who updates the website daily and is working on hiring a search engine optimization company. — Dennis Johnson

Of video encoding and changing methods
I guess my previous post was a bit premature; for shorts, I was saying then that some Free softwares for video editing on Windows were good, but had no equivalent in the Free software world. While I was not wrong stricto sensus, I hammered a few of them during the last few weeks.
Thus, I'll now write about the various free video treatment softwares I know and the slight shift in method this entails.
You'll see that there are strengths and weaknesses on both sides.

- Conference date: 7–11 July 2008
- Location: Heidelberg (Germany)
The High Energy Stereoscopic System (H.E.S.S.), located in the Khomas Highlands of Namibia, is an array of four, Imaging Atmospheric‐Cherenkov Telescopes designed to detect γ‐rays in the very‐high‐energy (VHE; ) domain. Its excellent sensitivity and large field‐of‐view (∼5°), make it an ideal instrument for surveying the Galactic plane in search of new sources of VHE γ‐rays. Initial observations in 2004 resulted in numerous detections of VHE γ‐ray emitters. This original Galactic Plane Survey (GPS) covered the inner Galaxy within in longitude and in latitude, with respect to the Galactic center. In the last three years, the H.E.S.S. GPS was extended to include the region an effort which consequently led to the discovery of many previously unknown VHE γ‐ray sources with high statistical significance. We report on the current status of the ongoing, extended H.E.S.S. GPS, present the latest exposure and significance maps of the Survey region, and highlight the most recent discoveries.

Much Ado About Nothing
by William Shakespeare
Analysis: Booker's Seven Basic Plots Analysis
Christopher Booker is a scholar who wrote that every story falls into one of seven basic plot structures: Overcoming the Monster, Rags to Riches, the Quest, Voyage and Return, Comedy, Tragedy, and Rebirth. Shmoop explores which of these structures fits this story like Cinderella's slipper.
Plot Type : Comedy
Much Ado About Nothing doesn't fall into the traditional rubric of comedies as set up by our man Mr. Booker—instead, Much Ado blends two types of comedies with its two plots. Way to buck tradition, Much Ado.
Plot #1: The Troublemaker (Hero and Claudio's Plot)
One type of Booker's comedy involves a dark character that ends up causing problems for everybody. This could describe Don John's involvement in the main plot of Hero and Claudio. However, Don John is not a deep or powerful enough villain to really make the whole play fall into this category—Don John doesn't impact every action in the play. The play's main conflict is more driven by Claudio's hatred that is provoked by Don John's deception than Don John's deception itself.
Hero and Claudio have their love thwarted by Don John. He tried to foil their love once (by suggesting to Claudio that Don Pedro was wooing Hero for himself) and then succeeds in destroying their (first) wedding by creating a fake scene of Hero's disloyalty. Once his treachery is revealed, Hero's name is cleared, Claudio realizes his error, and Hero and Claudio are free to come together again for a happy union.
Plot #2: The Mixup (Beatrice and Benedick's Plot)
The other category of comedy defined in Booker's rubric that captures the action in Much Ado About Nothing is the misunderstanding trope. In this model, there's no actual villain trying to sabotage everything. Instead, the characters are plagued by misunderstandings or some hidden truth that needs to be revealed before there can be a resolution. This situation sums up the problem with Beatrice and Benedick—they hate each other, and need to realize that their mutual hatred is actually mutual luuurve.
Beatrice and Benedick have no villain sabotaging them. They're initially kept apart by their mutual hatred, they're encouraged to get together by the manipulation of others, and finally they admit that they love each other. Once the cat's out of the bag, they're brought together happily, in spite of themselves.

A National Champion Eight Months Ago, Faulk Now an All-Star
Friday, 01.13.2012 / 2:54 PM ET / Tracking the Storm
By Michael Smith
Justin Faulk has accomplished a lot in less than a year.
|Michael Smith
|Follow on Twitter
Now he can add All-Star selection to that list.
Faulk was named one of 12 rookies who will participate in the Molson Canadian NHL All-Star Skills Competition on Saturday, Jan. 28 in Ottawa. The rookie defenseman will be the lone Hurricanes representative.
"I'm really excited about it," Faulk said. "You obviously wish you could have one of your teammates going there. The more you can get there, the better. But I'm excited about it, and I have my teammates to thank. I couldn't do it without them or the organization for giving me a chance at the beginning of the year to prove myself."
Thought head coach Kirk Muller wasn't with the organization at the beginning of the season, he's quickly learned what Faulk could bring to the blue line.
"I'll be honest. I didn't know a whole lot about him before I arrived," Muller said. "But it didn't take long to be impressed with a kid at his age with the hockey knowledge and skill level he has with and without the puck. He knows the game well. He's a competitor, he's got good skill and I'm really proud and excited for him that he can go into All-Star Weekend."
Though he was living in a hotel as a recently as Christmas, he might want to think about securing something more permanent now.
"It's been kind of whirlwind for me. I'm excited about how things are going this year for me," he said. "When I got sent down, it's never the best feeling in the world. But you've just got to keep working, battle your way back up here and prove yourself. And I've gotten a little more comfortable with that in the past few months."
Helping him get comfortable has been Jay Harrison, who has also worked his way to be a top defenseman on the team. The pairing of Faulk and Harrison has recently led the team in ice time. It's also a combination that Muller has kept intact among the shuffling between the other two pairings.
"Harry's been really good as a veteran guy working with him and talking with him," Muller said. "They like playing with each other. They've had some good chemistry, and I think it's a good combination to keep."
Though Faulk will be the Hurricanes' only delegate in Ottawa in two weeks, he isn't going into the event completely blind.
"I've been talking to Bainer about it," Faulk said. "He was a part of the rookie events last year, so he's just telling me how it's going to go. It's nice to have other guys who have done this before in the past to help you along so you don't get there knowing nothing about it."
In last year's SuperSkills competition, Jamie McBain, one of the 12 rookies selected to participate in the event, took part in the Skills Challenge Relay. McBain drew the tough task of making a saucer pass over a short barrier into tiny nets. He fared pretty well in front of the home crowd even though Team Staal lost that overall challenge.
While Faulk won't know what SuperSkills event he'll be participating in until All-Star Weekend, he's got some ideas. Hardest shot, maybe?
"That'd be fun to see how hard [my shot] is and to battle Chara," he said. "He's got a bomb, so taking him down would be kind of hard."
Until then, Faulk will be concentrated on the team's six games before the break. All the while, he'll be dodging chirps about his All-Star status from his teammates. He is a rookie, after all.
"They're kind of all over me. It's pretty funny, though. It's all fun," he said, laughing. "A few jokes here and there, and a few new nicknames going around."

Joseph Pitts
Naples football
Last week - Pitts, a 6-foot, 178-pound senior quarterback and 2011 DODDS-Europe all-star, passed for 165 yards and ran for 105 more Saturday to lift the Naples Wildcats to a 35-20 victory over the Ansbach Cougars.
According to coach Steve Altstiel, in his first season at Naples' helm, Pitts has passed for 893 yards and 10 touchdowns, yardage resulting from Pitts' growth.
"Joseph is far more comfortable in the pocket than he has been…," Altstiel emailed on Tuesday. "He used to have to roll out…to feel free enough to throw, but now he is comfortable, confident and accurate out of the pocket."
Pitts has rushed for 345 yards and four TDs, and plays the game with his head as well as his limbs.
"Joseph has great football smarts," Altstiel wrote. "We have designed plays, so that Joseph can call audibles at the line... The fact that we trust him with audibles speaks volumes to how much confidence we have in his abilities. He thinks and reacts with wisdom."
Sarah Schiller
Ramstein volleyball
Last week - Schiller, a junior setter, put on a clinic Saturday by handing out 65 assists in two three-set matches to help the defending Division I champion Ramstein Royals remain unbeaten with straight-sets victories over Wiesbaden and Black Forest Academy.
In addition to the assists, which as Ramstein coach Erin Markus pointed out, are registered solely when a teammate makes a kill, Schiller, a 2011 All-European, chalked up 13 kills, 10 solo blocks and 10 aces.
"Sarah is involved in every play that occurs on the court," Markus wrote in an email, "and is so dominant as a server and blocker as well."
So dominant, in fact, that going into Saturday's matches, Markus credited Schiller, a 91 percent server, with 53 aces and 293 assists.
In total, Markus said, that without Schiller, a year-round player and high academic achiever, who "more importantly always has a smile on her face, this team would not be who we are…"

Kenner police said two people were killed in a train accident Tuesday afternoon.
The incident happened near the intersection of the Kenner - St. Charles line and the CN Railroad tracks off Airline Highway on Tuesday afternoon.
Investigators said the fatal accident involved the Amtrak City of New Orleans line, which was traveling from Chicago to New Orleans, and a vehicle.
The two occupants inside the vehicle were killed on impact, police said.
Lt. Wade McInnis with the Kenner Police Department said the roadway the vehicle was traveling on before the accident was not a public roadway and was actually owned by the East Jefferson Levee District. McInnis said signs marked the intersection as a railroad, but the vehicle apparently failed to yield to the locomotive.
The 62 people on the train were not injured in the fatal accident.
About two hours later, a train and vehicle collided in Luling on Barton Avenue near Highway 90.
Officials told WDSU there were no injuries in the Luling accident and that the Louisiana State Police were investigating the incident.

|Tunneling Magnetoresistance With Amorphous Electrodes
|January 01, 2007
|A detailed first principles analysis of the transport properties of different magnetic electrode materials for MgO tunnel junctions is performed to elucidate the microscopic origin of the TMR effect. The spin-dependent transport properties of the magnetic materials are analyzed separately from the particular interface geometry with the tunneling barrier. We use the bulk properties of the barrier to identify the important tunneling states. For MgO these are D1-like states. From the analysis of this effective spin polarization we can predict the potential of certain magnetic materials to create a high TMR ratio in a tunnel junction. This polarization is as high as 98 % and 86 % for Fe and Co, respectively for only a few monolayers, but very small and negative, -7 %, for amorphous Fe.This explains the finding that for crystalline Co and Fe one monolayer next to the MgO barrier is sufficient to reach TMR ratios higher than 500 % independent of whether the crystalline monolayer is coupled to a non-magnetic or to an amorphous lead. However, in direct contact with MgO amorphous Fe reduces the TMR ratio drastically to 44 %.

As adoption of Electronic Health Record Systems (EHR-Ss) shifts from early adopters to mainstream, an increasingly large group of decision makers must assess what they want from EHR-Ss and how to go about making their choices. The purpose of this book is to inform that decision. This book explains typical needs of a variety of stakeholders, describes current and imminent technologies, and assesses the available evidence regarding issues in implementing and using EHR-Ss. Divided into four important sections-Needs, Current State, Technology, and Going Forward-the book provides the background and general notions regarding the EHRS and lays out the framework; delves into the historical review; presents a high-level view of EHR systems, focused on the needs of different stakeholders in the health care and the health enterprise; offers practical views of existing systems and current (and short-term future) issues in specifying a EHR system and deciding how to approach the institution of such a system; deals with technology issues, from front- to back-end; and describes where we are and where we should be going with EHR systems. Designed for use by chief information officers, chief medical informatics officers, medical liaisons to hospital systems, private practitioners, and business managers at academic and non-academic hospitals, care management organizations, and practices. The book could be used in any medical or health informatics course, at any level (undergrad, fellowship, MBA).. Price: $127.34

Well… at least I hope you can't have too many projects going on at once. Otherwise, I'd be in trouble this week!
I sometimes arrange my Work-in-Progress Wednesday post into a lovely theme… but not this week. Today's theme is: 'hey! look at all the stuff I'm working on!'
Colorwork Hearts Hat
I got the itch to do a little bit of colorwork, and I found an adorable pattern: From Norway with Love.
I got a little carried away with knitting during the Super Bowl (you can sneak a peek at the finished result on my project page)… but we'll just pretend I didn't.
The pattern is adorable, and I'm using Martha Stewart's Extra Soft Wool for the main color and an array of leftover bits of 100% wool for the hearts. I would have been hesitant about making a hat from a wool/acrylic blend, but since the hat is stranded, the 100% wool used for the colorwork will keep it nice and toasty.
White Scarf
I'm in a bit of a 'leftovers' phase. You know… you get little bits leftover from projects, and you don't know what to do with them?
Well… I'm doing something with them! I gathered all of my white sport & dk weight yarns:
And I'm knitting a simple ribbed scarf (details on my Ravelry project page). It's simple 'evening' knitting, and I'm loving it! I love how each white yarn is a little bit different: some fuzzy, some slick, some thinner than others… and I'm using up leftovers!
Before you ask: no, it is not possible to have too many stuffed animals. I don't even want to hear of it.
I have a lot of animals in progress. I'm preparing for the release of a teddy bear pattern, so I'm making lots of extra samples:
Yarn: Plymouth Galway Worsted (100% wool), size H hook
Yarn: Vickie Howell Sheep(ish) held double, size K hook
I'm really into showing how one pattern can be worked up in different yarns… so I'm making a giant bear, too! So much fun!
I'm also working on a custom owl:
Yarn: Knit Picks Shine Worsted, size H hook
And, last but not least… I'm making the sample for the next Kit Club shipment! What will it be?!?
Hope you're having a great crochet and knitting week!
Be sure to have a pop by this Friday… I'm trying something new and different for this FO Friday! I think you'll like it!
That's what I've been up to this week… how about you? I hope you have an awesome Wednesday, and get some great knitting/crocheting done this week!
If you want to check out more Work-In-Progress posts, please check out Tami's Ami's Blog, who's been organizing a great WIP Wednesday blog theme! And, don't forget to come back for FO (Finished Object) Friday!

Only Half of Hungarian Adults Have Savings, Study Shows
BUDAPEST — Only half of Hungarian adults have savings, a study commissioned by OTP Alapkezelo, the fund manager arm of Hungarian bank OTP Nyrt. showed.
Although the level of disposable income is generally considered the main factor regarding how much people save up, Istvan Hamecz, chairman and chief executive of OTP Fund Manager said. "Savings don't depend on income but on preferences; Hungarians seem to prefer immediate consumption to savings," Hamecz said.
Financial culture is generally considered to be less developed among Hungarian households than the rest of Western Europe. Financial education isn't part of the national curriculum and adults between 30 and 40 years old who took part in the survey were born before the change of the regime in 1989 when capitalism reached Hungary.
"Under the socialist regime, the state offered a very wide range of services; thus people didn't have to save up for healthcare and pension costs," Mr. Hamecz said.
This seems underpinned by the fact that only 21% of adults taking part in the survey said they can save up a fixed amount each month.
Global economic trends stress the importance of savings, however; countries where savings are higher, the investment rate is also higher, Mr. Hamecz said. "In very rich European countries there's no fast gross domestic product growth but more people tend to save up," Mr. Hamecz said.

Famous Dodger in Angels territory
True Grich is one of our favorite blogs on the web. The blog has a good sense of humor, and a good sense of Angels history.
Wednesday night, True Grich was represented at the Angels game and noticed something strange. With a trusty video camera, they caught Dodgers icon Steve Garvey walking in the upper deck at Angel Stadium.
Garvey was not wearing red, and he didn't have a Rally Monkey hanging around his neck. But he was nice enough to pause for a picture.
You would think Garvey would have better seats.

|Semiclassical Boltzmann transport theory for graphene multilayers
|May 11, 2011
|We calculate the conductivity of arbitrarily stacked multilayer graphene sheets within a relaxation time approximation by considering both short-range and long-range impurities. We investigate theoretically the feasibility of identifying the stacking order of these multilayers using transport measurements. For relatively clean samples, the various stacking configurations give over two decades of power-law dependence of the conductivity on carrier density. This arises due to a low density decomposition of the multilayer band structure into a sum of J-chiral Hamiltonians. For dirty samples, the simple power-law relationship no longer holds. Nonetheless, identification of the number of layers and stacking sequence is still possible by careful comparison of experimental data to the results presented here.

Availability of water
Nearly 71% of the earth is covered by water in the form of oceans, seas, lakes, rivers, ice, ground water and moisture in the air. But most of it is not fit for human consumption.
Water that is fit for human consumption is called freshwater. Only 0.006% of the water on the earth is actually available for our use.
In nature, water exists in three forms
- As a solid, it exists as icecaps at the poles, snow-covered mountains and glaciers.
- As a liquid, it is in the form of water in oceans, lakes and rivers, and underground water.
- Its gaseous form is the water vapor in the air around us.
Water cycle or hydrological cycle
The continuous cycling of water in nature that keeps the total amount of water on the earth constant is called water cycle.
Processes involved in water cycle
The processes involved in the water cycle are, evaporation, condensation ,precipitation and infiltration.
The process of conversion of water molecules into vapor is called evaporation. water vapor collects in the sky in the form of clouds.
The process of conversion of water vapor into water by cooling is called condensation.
Water falls from the sky in the form of rain, snow, hail, or sleet, this process is called precipitation.
The process of seeping of water into the ground is known as infiltration.
Sometimes, ground water accumulates between layers of hard rock. This is known as an aquifer. Water in aquifers can be drawn with tube wells and hand pumps.
Water table
The level below which the ground is saturated with water is called water table.
Ground water
Ground water is the water found below the water table.
Depletion of water table
As long as the water drawn from the ground is replenished by seepage of rain water, the water table remains unaffected. The problem starts when we take more water from the ground than is replenished by natural means. Then the water table goes down, and it is said to have been depleted.
Reasons for depletion of the water table
Increasing population that creates more demand for water.
More wells are dug and water is drawn from them.
Industrial activities are increasing the demand for water. For example, the construction industry uses tube wells to draw ground water.
An increase in agricultural activities demands more water. In areas where there are no streams and lakes, ground water is used for irrigation.
Scanty rainfall is another reason for depletion of the water table.
Water table depletion can be a result of deforestation.
Water management
Water management is the continuous matching of water resources with the water requirements of a place.
Water management essentially involves activities that identify sources of water, prevent wastage of water, and implement recycling of water.
It may also include treatment of water to make it suitable for human consumption.
Prevent wastage of water
Water leaking from pipes
Fixing Leaking taps.
Water over-flowing from buckets while clothes are being washed alongside
Using water wisely while brushing the teeth, shaving, bathing, washing and during many other activities, practising rainwater harvesting.
Conservation of water
Instead of letting rainwater runoff into the sea, it can be used to recharge ground water. This is known as rainwater harvesting.
Rainwater harvesting can be used to raise the water table in arid areas. It can also be used to create water storage areas.
Farming, which typically requires huge quantities of water, can also benefit from good water management.
This is the old method of rain water storage and recharge. In olden days people built deep step wells into the ground. These deep step wells are called bawris. During rainy season these wells are filled with water. The water is stored in these wells for longer time because they are very deep the evaporation of water is less. During shortage people use this water.
Drip irrigation
Drip irrigation is an economical way of using water. This technique involves the use of tubes to deliver water straight to the base of a plant, where it is taken up by the roots.
Effects of water scarcity
Plants need water to absorb nutrients from the soil and make their food. Without water, plants would die, and greenery would be lost. This, in turn, would mean the end of all life on the earth, because without plants, there would be no food, oxygen or rainfall. There would also be many other problems.

Ender's Game
by Orson Scott Card
Manipulation Quotes in Ender's Game
How we cite our quotes: (Chapter.Paragraph)
Quote #4
"And the mind game is designed to help shape them, help them find worlds they can be comfortable in." (9.8)
We tend to think of manipulation as a bad thing, but here Major Imbu (the computer specialist) is describing how the mind game is meant to mess around with students for the sake of their own happiness. That is, the mind game seems like therapy: it manipulates the children into working through some issues. Is this still manipulation?
Quote #5
"Val, we can say the words that everyone else will be saying two weeks later. We can do that." (9.80)
Peter is the most manipulative of the Wiggin kids. Or is he? Maybe he's merely the most open about it. Here he is, planning with Val about how they should manipulate the world. In this case, his form of manipulation will be almost entirely verbal. (By contrast, the school teachers try to manipulate Ender through a number of techniques, such as isolation.) Peter and Val are useful for us because they talk a lot about their plans for manipulation (so we can see exactly how they plan to do it); and also because they demonstrate that manipulation is not totally about Ender. (See also 9.37 and 9.63.)
Quote #6
He's manipulating me, she thought, but that doesn't mean he isn't sincere. (9.112)
In our opinion, this is one of the most interesting comments about manipulation in Ender's Game. Here Val notes that Peter's manipulation of her doesn't necessarily mean he's lying. In this case, he's crying in front of her and saying he needs her help. On one hand, that's a calculated move – he wants her help and he'll do whatever it takes to get her to. On the other hand, maybe he's crying because he's actually upset. It's useful for us to realize that not all manipulation is lies. As Graff (probably) notes, sometimes telling the truth will get the desired result too (3.8).

Today: Chinese investment group with state involvement makes bid for optical-component manufacturer OmniVision. Also; Applied Materials and Agilent reveal earnings a day after Cisco announced layoffs.
The Lead: Chinese investors bid for OmniVision, but would U.S. allow sale?
OmniVision, a Santa Clara component maker that has placed its camera parts in Apple's iPhone, received a takeover offer from a Chinese investor that could be worth $1.7 billion, the company announced Thursday.
Hua Capital Management offered $29 a share for the company, 17.8 percent more than OmniVision's Wednesday closing price of $24.60, which would value OmniVision at $1.67 billion. Shares zoomed toward that mark after the announcement was made ahead of Thursday trading, closing with a 15 percent gain at $28.10, the largest daily percentage gain for an SV150 company.
OmniVision did not signal its willingness to accept the acquisition offer, saying in its statement that the board of directors would investigate the offer and had hired JPMorgan as a financial adviser and Palo Alto law firm Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati as a legal adviser to help with the process.
Even if OmniVision decided to accept the offer, it could run into regulatory issues because the Chinese firm that made the bid is partially state-controlled. OmniVision noted in its statement that Shanghai Pudong Science and Technology Investment is part of the investment group that leads Hua Capital Management, and that entity was established directly under the Pudong New Area government of Shanghai.
Tim Keeler, a partner at the Mayer Brown law firm, told Reuters on Thursday that the United States would certainly review carefully any bid for a U.S. company from a Chinese firm with state involvement.
"You have these political hurdles, of people being concerned about state-owned enterprises, and people being concerned about chip-making technology going to China," Lewis said, adding, "I can't think of what else they could add to make it more difficult" to receive government approval.
Needham analyst Rajvindra Gill reported Thursday that the unsolicited bid was the first for a U.S. semiconductor by a Chinese state-controlled entity, and predicted it could lead to a higher price before U.S. approval is even considered.
"We could see another U.S. based strategic company make a bid in order to capture key semiconductor assets (i.e. image sensors) or witness a competitive bidding process by another Chinese state-owned entity," Gill wrote.
OmniVision manufactures sensors, chips and other components for cameras used in smartphones and other devices. The booming desire for its parts have pushed it into the top 50 largest technology companies in Silicon Valley in terms of revenues, with sales growing 13.1 percent in 2013 to $1.46 billion.
Those components have been placed in Apple's iPhones in the past, according to breakdowns of the Cupertino company's popular consumer devices, but OmniVision is contractually obligated to avoid mentioning deals with Apple. Shareholders are still embroiled in a class-action lawsuit with executives at the company for mentioning deals with Apple in 2011, leading them to believe OmniVision was the sole supplier of iPhone camera components, when Sony was reportedly as prominent or dominant in the phone.
OmniVision's products have been openly popular with Asian manufacturers of mobile devices, however: The largest customer in its just-completed fiscal year was Chinese contract manufacturer Foxconn, also known as HonHai, and just behind was Korean manufacturer Cowell Electronics, with the two combining for more than a quarter of OmniVision's sales.
Pacific Crest analysts wrote in May that OmniVision is poised for "strong results driven primarily by strong Chinese smartphone demand," offsetting any concerns about Apple purchasing competitive products. Baird Equity research analysts agreed in a note last month that Chinese manufacturers are driving growth for OmniVision, according to Recode.
"We believe OmniVision has the No. 1 market share position in the tier-one smartphone OEM (original equipment manufacturer) segment in China," Baird analysts wrote.
SV150 market report: Cisco falls after revealing earnings, plan for more layoffs
Wall Street enjoyed gains Thursday, though Silicon Valley tech stocks increased at a slower rate as Cisco declined after announcing earnings and yet another plan for layoffs.
Cisco fell 2.6 percent to $24.54 after closing out its fiscal year by announcing 6,000 impending layoffs and annual declines in revenues and profits. Cisco followed that performance by disclosing that its layoffs will cost $700 million in restructuring fees during the current fiscal year, but many analysts still increased price targets on the San Jose networking company's stock after the report. NetApp joined Cisco in announcing earnings Wednesday, but the Sunnyvale data-storage company performed better in the Wall Street aftermath, gaining 5.2 percent to $41.35; San Francisco ad-tech company Yume's earnings led to the biggest percentage decline in the SV150 on Thursday, with shares plunging 11.4 percent to $5.07.
Twitter jumped 2.7 percent to $45.33 while saying it would consider changes after Robin Williams' daughter was harassed on its platform, and introducing new services for verified members. Apple gained 0.3 percent to $97.50 while banning caustic chemicals used in its manufacturing processes, and Tesla Motors closed at its fourth consecutive record high while clarifying its stance on California's environmental rules regarding the Gigafactory. Netflix announced five upcoming original comedy specials and shares dropped 0.2 percent to $450.87, and Yahoo gained 0.5 percent to $36.36 while unveiling online tools for small businesses.
In Thursday's earnings reports, Santa Clara chip-equipment company Applied Materials revealed net income of $301 million, or 24 cents a share, on sales of $2.27 billion, and shares moved higher in late trading. Fellow Santa Clara company Agilent reported earnings of $147 million, or 43 cents a share, on sales of $1.77 billion, and shares held steady, while Extreme Networks slipped after the San Jose networking company revealed losses of $16.2 million, or 17 cents a share, on sales of $155.3 million.

Film Review by Kam Williams
Excellent (4 stars)
Kathryn Stockett made an auspicious debut in 2009 with the publication of The Help, a poignant period piece examining the unquestioned relationships of entitled, white socialites and their deferential black maids in Mississippi. Although the story is set in the author's hometown of Jackson in the early Sixties, her best-selling novel is more fictional than autobiographical in nature.
The screen adaptation unfolds from the point of view of Aibileen Clark (Viola Davis), a long-suffering nanny left bone-weary by a life spent "lookin' after white babies." Born in 1911, she is currently raising little Mae Mobley Leefolt (Emma and Eleanor Henry), a recent addition to a prominent Southern family.
As narrator, Aibileen is able to admit to the audience the existence of a "bitter seed" planted deep inside of her soul since the recent death of her only son. Still, she is not one to risk her job by allowing her face to reveal even a trace of that resentment in the presence of her employers. Instead, the grammatically-challenged domestic dutifully nourishes the impressionable toddler in her care by regularly reciting the same spiritual mantra she's shared with all 17 other children entrusted to her over the years, namely, "You is kind; you is smart; you is important."
By contrast, Aibileen's relatively-mercurial best friend, Minny (Octavia Spencer), is not nearly as stoic, which explains why she frequently finds herself fired for insubordination. After all, the strictly-enforced housekeeper code of conduct calling for no spanking, touching or sassing white folks, and especially no using their bathrooms tends to test her patience.
Passive-aggressive Minny is lucky even to be alive after her latest outburst
which led to her being dismissed by Hilly Holbrook (Bryce Dallas Howard), an
insufferable shrew who only got what she deserved. Minny next lands a position
with Celia Foote (Jessica Chastain), a newcomer ostracized by other well-to-do
ladies because of her white trash roots.
The plot thickens, upon the arrival back in town of cotton plantation heiress Skeeter Phelan (Emma Stone). Having spent time away from the racist region, the aspiring journalist now finds herself offended by a way of life everyone else around her seems to take for granted.

Mary J. Blige "The Help" Interview


text:
Maharana Pratap Singh ascended the throne on 1 March, 1572, and the famous battle of Haldighat was fought in June, 1576. The Mewar army at the battle of Haldighat was quite formidable and in every way a match for the Mughal army. Evidently long time must have been spent to raise and equip this army, and get the support of Afghans like Hakim Sur Pathan, who fought for Mewar at Haldighat. But even more important was gaining the support of the Bhils, who from now on steadfastly helped the Maharanas of Mewar, and made possible the guerilla warfare after the battle of Haldighat. This broad imaginative policy not only served the cause of Mewar's independence, but made its young king a real national leader. One can only imagine the flush of enthusiasm among the Bhils when for the first time they were recognized as fighting partners by the proud ruling Kshatriyas.
The battle of Haldighat was fought on 21 June, 1576. The Maharana had originally taken his position in the ghati which could be reached by a narrow and rugged path about a mile and a half long. Man Singh waited for him in the plain below, and in the morning of 21 June the Maharana came out and attacked the Mughal army. As Man Singh had arranged his army in battle array, it is evident that the Maharana's attack had lost the element of surprise. Still, in the first flush of attack, his army practically broke though the Mughal army, but the rout was stopped by Man Singh and a few intrepid officers. There was a personal encounter between the Maharana and Man Singh. But while Man Singh, on an elephant, ducked and avoided the Maharana's javelin, Pratap's famous horse, Chetak, which had placed its forelegs on Man Singh's elephant, was struck by the sword which the huge beast carried in its trunk. Chetak immediately turned and fled, and with his last breath carried his master out of danger.

A 32-year-old white man with essential hypertension presented with three episodes of acute and severe pulmonary allergic pneumonitis on ingestion of one 50-mg tablet of hydrochlorothiazide. The third episode, noticed during a challenge test, was similar to the previous two episodes. To our knowledge this is the third case of severe allergic pneumonitis secondary to hydrochlorothiazide and the first in which a challenge test was done.

News 12 at 6 o'clock / Sunday, Jan. 15, 2012
AUGUSTA, Ga. -- Janell Knotts has always taught her children to treat others the way you want to be treated.
And even after her youngest son was diagnosed with cancer, her two daughters still remember that important message.
They began a project to help bring a little cheer to other children with cancer.
"You never imagine that this is going to be your child, and so when it does happen, it really rocks your world," Janell Knotts told News 12.
Her 4-year-old son, Benjamin, was diagnosed with a rare type of cancer just a week after his second birthday.
A healthy Benjamin Knotts, nearly three years later, told us, "When I was a little boy, I had cancer."
He went through a year of chemotherapy treatments.
He remembered those treatments, saying, "They put medicine in my body."
Thankfully, he is now in remission and no longer needs those painful treatments.
But, while he was in the hospital, his two older sisters had an idea to help other kids like their brother.
"They decided, since they're Girl Scouts, that they were going to start collecting cookies for the other families," their proud mother told us.
Autumn Knotts is a Brownie girl scout.
"We go to different people's houses and ask them if they'd like to donate girl scout cookies," the 8-year-old said.
Which are one of Benjamin's favorite things.
When we asked Benjamin how much he loved Girl Scout cookies, a big grin spread over his face, and he said "A really big lot!" spreading his arms out as far as they could reach.
We went door to door with the girls as they asked for donations.
Genevieve Knotts explained to one donor, "We give them to families at the hospital who have cancer."
For the past three years, the girls have gone door to door, collecting donations for the project they call, "Cookies for a Cause."
"We stay out pretty much all day when we collect donations," Genevieve said.
Their goal this year is 150 boxes -- all to be given to sick children and families at GHS Children's Medical Center in Augusta.
"They have a lot of financial burdens, and it's not like you can just go out and get everything you want. Sometimes the small things like Girl Scout cookies and things like that, they fall by the wayside," Janell said.
Which is exactly why the girls decided to make a difference.
"It feels really good," Autumn said. "It feels like they're a part of my family and I'm giving them something."
Their mom remembers the year they spent in and out of the hospital all too well, saying, "You just never think this is going to happen to you, and you're just amazed when they go through something that's pretty rough on them, and they actually take it and make it something better."
The girls will be collecting donations until the end of January and will deliver them to the hospital in February. So far, they have collected 80 boxes toward their goal of 150.

Statement cuff bracelet
[Step by step tutorila]
Since my post about spiked statement cuffs was so popular, I've decided to show you how you can create your own custom made cuff bracelet. Honestly I didn't expect that it will come out so beautiful. For this cuff you will need beads in various sizes and form. For the cuff itself you can use leather, faux leather or any thick material. The screw back spikes are availabe on the E-bay HERE. You also need some velcro, fabric glue and thick yarn for the beads. If you don't have a leather punch use the scissors to make small holes for the spikes. Enjoy!

conference, bringing together a sampling of presentations and maybe
even a short workshop.
Peter Merholz has generously offered to host this event at Adaptive Path.

Presented by Kendra Shimmell, Lextant
Augmented Reality: Is It Real? Should We Care?
Presented by Kevin Cheng, Twitter

Earlier this year, former Anaheim City Council candidate John Karczynski successfully discharged his 2008 campaign debt of $41,585 through bankruptcy, a move that is not only unusual but might also be illegal, said campaign finance watchdog Shirley Grindle.
"It smells funny," said Grindle, adding that she's never seen anything like this in more than 30 years of watching campaign finance.
Karczynski ran unsuccessfully against current Mayor pro tem Harry Sidhu and Councilwoman Lorri Galloway in 2008. He owed Probolsky Research $14,900, Tab Communications $23,163 and AimPoint Inc. $2,096.
Karczynski has not returned calls for comment on the matter.
Grindle reported the action to both the Anaheim City Attorney and the state Fair Political Practices Commission. "If anything, I want to close the loophole, if there is one," said Grindle.
The FPPC does not comment on ongoing investigations and the City Attorney's office did not return calls for comment.
Grindle argues that since he claimed the campaign debt on personal bankruptcy, it is commingling of funds, a violation of state-level campaign finance law. "No contribution shall be commingled with the personal funds of the recipient or any other person," reads the section.
She also says that since the debt was accumulated in the form of services, that it should be counted as non-monetary contributions, in which Anaheim city election codes have a $1,700 cap.
Fines at the state level range from from $5000 to $20,000, depending on the ruling of the FPPC, said Grindle.
If Karczynski is found to be in violation of the city's ordinance, then he could be fined for "...a sum equal to three times the amount by which the contribution exceeds the applicable contribution limit or the sum of $2,500, whichever is greater for each violation," reads the city code.
Adam Probolsky, CEO of Probolsky Research, which did phone polling for Karczynski, said he'd been getting the bankruptcy notices in the mail for months and couldn't understand how the debt was discharged.
Probolsky said he has the same feelings as Grindle. "I don't believe that you can discharge campaign debt through the bankruptcy process," he said.
He also said he doesn't expect to get paid. "He's not the kind of guy that is going to show up at the office with a check."
Another thing that bothers Grindle is that Karczynski listed a man named John Ferguson" as his campaign treasurer on his filings with the city, but then told her when she called him that he was actually the treasurer.
Grindle said it's legal for a candidate to be their own campaign treasurer, but nonetheless is suspicious as to why he would list a different name. "I don't see the reasoning ... it stinks," said Grindle.

Prof. Boothe has been teaching at USM since 1993.
His education background is:
- Ph.D. Computer Science, University of California at Berkeley, July 1993
Thesis: "Evaluation of Multithreading and Caching in Large Shared Memory Parallel Computers"
- M.S. Computer Science, U.C. Berkeley, December 1989
Thesis: "Multiprocessor Strategies for Ray-Tracing"
- B.S. Computer Engineering, U.C. San Diego, June 1985
Research Interests
- I am currently working on a project to build a highly supportive system for students in my algorithms class to develop algorithms. This system provides automatic testing, comparison to reference solutions, and automatic algorithm animations. I feel it will fulfill a strong need for students to validate their algorithm ideas.
- My previous research project was a bidirectional debugger. This bidirectional debugger made it possible for its user to move both forward and backward along the execution path of their program. For example, the user could perform the following new operations: stepping back to the previous statement, setting a breakpoint and stepping back to the point where the program last visited that breakpoint, stepping back to the point where a variable was last assigned a particular value, and undoing previous debugger commands. I still remain very interested in this field and have further research ideas in this area.
- In the past I have done research in the fields of parallel computer architecture and fast computer simulation techniques.

Uncovering America's Heritage... Coin by Coin
2008 John Quincy Adams Presidential $1 Coin
This coin honors the first President who was the son of another President, and that's John Quincy Adams. You can read some of his life story on his own Presidential $1 Coin page, but I'd like to tell you even more about him.
Adams was a Harvard-educated lawyer and served in several federal positions before being elected president. Adams was also one of America's great Secretaries of State.
When he ran for the presidency, there were different groups within the Democratic-Republican party, and each one put forth its own candidate. By the vote of the people, Adams fell second behind Andrew Jackson. But none of the four candidates had a majority of the Electoral College votes, so the election was decided by the House of Representatives, as the Constitution allows in such a case.
As President, Adams immediately suggested some grand programs, like building a network of highways and canals, developing public lands, and strengthening the arts and sciences by building an observatory, setting up a national university, and funding scientific expeditions. But some people thought his plans went beyond his authority under the Constitution.
In the following election (1828), the vote went to Andrew Jackson. Adams then returned to Massachusetts to enjoy his farm and his books. But in 1830, the Plymouth district elected him to the House of Representatives, where he served as a strong leader until the end of his life 18 years later.
An example of his leadership was his stand against slavery. The House had a rule that no bills against slavery would be discussed there. Adams fought this "gag rule" as unconstitutional for eight years before the rule was finally repealed.
In 1848, John Quincy Adams suffered a stroke in the House of Representatives and died there, in the Speaker's room, two days later. Adams was buried with his family in Massachusetts.

Why Alice Munro Won the Nobel Prize in Literature
More than a hundred reporters from around the world thronged and bustled in the Stock Exchange Building in Stockholm's Old Town for about an hour before the doors to the Swedish Academy swung open. Notably, there were many Japanese reporters present, hoping to break the news that Haruki Murakami had won the prize. Finally, the Swedish Academy's Permanent Secretary Peter Englund stepped out from the doors and said Canadian short story writer Alice Munro has won the 2013 Nobel Prize in Literature.
The following is a truncated Q&A with reporters and Englund. (The questions have been abbreviated and clarified.)
Why did Alice Munro win?
We gave her the Nobel Prize in Literature because she is a master of the contemporary short story.
Which book to begin with?
One of the amazing things about her is that she has no weak works in her oeuvre. She has always worked to the best of her ability; she has always cultivated the short story to perfection. And she has never really written a weak or bad book. So you can take your pick. "The Moons of Jupiter" was the first book I read by her and you can see both her different themes in that book and also her very special narrative mode, you can find it there. She tells her stories a bit like nobody else. She has a very economical language and sparse style. You can find that in "The Moons of Jupiter." You can take your pick. The latest one is obviously very interesting, "Dear Life," which contains a number of autobiographical sketches at the end that gives a key to the entire authorship of Alice Munro.
How was she informed?
Well, I left a message e on her answering machine. I couldn't reach her and it was of course pretty early in the morning. But she will be notified by courier, by email to her both agents, by standard mail and so on.
What kind of message did you leave?
Basically, congratulations! You've won the Nobel Prize in literature.
What's the Importance of a woman winning?
Don't ask me. We picked her for excellence, nothing else. Of course it matters when you start doing the headcount. But she is no representative. She has received this prize just because of what she has done. Nothing else.
We don't have these kind of quotas, thank god … We don't have any quotas. We could, if we wanted to, award this prize four times in a row to a children's book writer working in the United States. If we wanted to. We can do as we please. We don't have to fill any quotes in any direction. We just give it to authors who show an extraordinary literary quality. One of these is Mrs. Alice Munro.
