With a short interest ratio north of 9, these solid results could produce a small to moderate squeeze tomorrow/next few days. The loyal and patient longs will be rewarded tomorrow and over the long haul. Solid company with solid leadership.
Sentiment: Hold
OK, short interest is now at a more realistic level and should stabilize going into an earnings month. This is great.
...and on top of that, for the 1st time in 5 years of investing in this stock, I don't feel as though I need to pull down my profits after a quarterly release. This company finally has a firm foundation, on which, it can build a wildly successful company. I am now a perma-long as I don't see any more big dips back to the teens for a long time.
As Colin has said, it's easier for iRobot to master the vacuum side of the machine then it is for the vacuum makers to master the robotics side of the product. iRobot showed up at a knife fight with a gun.
Earnings Per Share
New guidance --------- $0.80 - $1.00
Old guidance ---------- $0.57 - $0.72
That's a huge leap in guidance. We will be breaking through $30 in no time.
I know everyone is fascinated with the robotics angle of iRobot, but this company has also achieved a breakthrough in cleanliness. The 24/7 patrolling of dirty floors is a killer service and there has never been a time in history when an advancing society has rejected an effort to be cleaner. Cleanliness is in the DNA of our species.

Skinny Raspberry Swirl Cheesecake Bars.
An easy recipe for lightened up cheesecake bars using light cream cheese, yogurt, egg whites, and a swirl of raspberry jam.
Kevin and I just got back from vacation and making a skinny treat to start off a new week just sounded right. We spent the week enjoying s'mores, peanut butter pies, and maybe too much sangria. I'm welcoming a lighter dessert option with open arms today.
I'm excited about this recipe for a couple reasons.
(1) These lightened up cheesecake bars are really, really GOOD. Better than a full-fat version. Seriously.
(2) This is my first photo shoot with my new camera lens. I updated my photography page with the current equipment I am using. I am in love with this new zoom lens! It costed quite the pretty penny, but it is worth every cent. Paired with my Canon 5D Mark III camera, I find my images are tack sharp.
Ok, back to business. Raspberry cheesecake business.
If you've been reading my blog for awhile, you must know how much I love cheesecakey things. If i had it my way, dessert would be all cheesecake – all the time. However, we all know cheesecake isn't the best thing for our bathing suits or skinny jeans. Sigh.
That's why I created a lightened up cheesecake bar yesterday. I used light cream cheese, Greek yogurt, egg whites, and a touch of flour. The flour is used for thickening the cheesecake mixture since you are not using full fat ingredients. You cannot leave out the flour; the cheesecake will not set up properly. The protein-packed Greek yogurt makes these cheesecake bars SO creamy. I used nonfat plain Greek yogurt, but you may use low fat and/or a flavored kind like vanilla or raspberry. Today's dreamy cheesecake bars aren't as thick as my full fat cheesecake bars, but they sure are creamier.
Those gorgeous swirls between the creamy cheesecake are brought to you by raspberry jam. I used a natural raspberry jam I picked up at the farmer's market, but feel free to use any kind of jam and any flavor. I have a feeling peach or apricot jam would be fabulous. You'll need a scant 1/4 cup of jam total.
To swirl, drizzle 4 parallel and horizontal lines of jam on top of the cheesecake batter. Then, drag a toothpick down vertically – making 4 lines perpendicular to the jam lines.
The bars only take 25 minutes in the oven. Not too bad, right? But then you have to wait for them to fully chill before digging in. That is the worst part about cheesecake! There always has to be patience involved. Waiting to cut these skinny cheesecake bars is pure torture. But let me tell ya, that first bite makes every minute of waiting SO worth it!
The magic of these cheesecake bars is that they do not taste lightened-up at all! Rather, they taste like real cheesecake. I am shocked by how creamy they are considering how little fat is used in the recipe. Greek yogurt surely does work miracles! Do not leave out the lemon juice – it gives the bars a slight tang, like true New York Cheesecake.

Skinny Raspberry Swirl Cheesecake Bars
Yield: 12-16 bars, depending how large you cut them
An easy and delicious recipe for lightened up cheesecake bars using light cream cheese, yogurt, egg whites, and a touch of raspberry jam.
- 3/4 cup (85g) graham cracker crumbs (about 5-6 full sheets graham crackers)
- 2 Tablespoons (30g) unsalted or salted butter, melted (or melted coconut oil)
- 8 ounces brick-style light cream cheese, softened to room temperature (do not use fat free)
- 3/4 cup (185g) Chobani Greek yogurt (or regular yogurt, plain or flavored, low fat or fat free)
- 2 large egg whites
- 1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar
- 2 Tablespoons (16g) all-purpose flour
- 1 Tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup (80g) raspberry jam
- Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C). Line the bottom and sides of an 8-inch square baking pan with aluminum foil or parchment, leaving an overhang on all sides to easily lift the bars out of the pan before cutting. Set aside.
- Make the crust: Mix the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter together in a medium bowl until combined. Evenly press crust into the prepared baking pan. Bake for 8 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside.
- Make the filling: In a large bowl using a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, beat the cream cheese on high speed until completely smooth, about 1 minute. On medium-high speed, beat in yogurt until completely combined. Then beat in the egg whites until combined. Finally, beat in the sugar, flour, and lemon juice until everything is combined and no lumps remain.
- Pour filling onto the crust. Swirl the raspberry jam on top of the batter (see the text in the post for how I swirl).
- Bake for 25 minutes, covering the cheesecake bars at the 20 minute mark with aluminum foil to prevent over-browning. Allow the bars to cool at room temperature set on a wire rack for 30 minutes, then transfer to the refrigerator to chill for 3-4 hours or even overnight.
- Once chilled, lift the foil out of the pan using the overhang on the sides and cut into squares. For neat squares, I use a very sharp knife and wipe it clean with a paper towel after each cut. Leftovers keep well in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
- Make ahead tip: Prepare the bars 1-3 days in advance and store covered tightly in the refrigerator until ready to serve. Bars can be frozen for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before serving.

I made them and it didn't turn out. I have no clue where it went wrong. I melted coconut oil and the graham crackers just seemed to absorb up 2 Tb like it was nothing. Put in another 1 1/2 Tb of melted oil and the graham crackers never really set into a crust. Did the rest of the recipe exactly, and after 3 1/2 hours in the fridge they still weren't set up, only the edges had solidified. Tried doing some preliminary cuts for a test piece and the whole thing started falling apart.
So I scooped it all up and thew it in a container and am calling it Raspberry Cheesecake crumble. Absolutely delicious, but it just didn't turn out.
These were sooooooooo good! Whenever I'm looking for something to bake, I always checks the comments and reviews. This sure had a load of good ones!
I made these, but used black currant jam instead. I also forgot to add the flour and lemon and I only realised that after everything was mixed and in the oven.
Anyways, they still turned out amazing. (Me and my two sisters ate the whole thing in one day!)
I also applied sliced strawberries and they were fab. Thanks again!
I made these bars and they were delicious! Unfortunately, the first time I made the graham cracker crust (baked for 8 minutes as per the recipe) it came out completely burnt. I had to make the crust over again, and this time only baked for 5 minutes, which turned out much better. I don' think my oven runs hot, so I'd recommend checking on the crust after 5 minutes to see if it really needs the full 8 minutes directed by the recipe. Other than that minor snafu, these were scrumptious, healthy, and not too sweet. I am excited to make them again with other kinds of jam!
Sally! That was awesome 😀
They taste great and whoever had the chance to try them agrees 😀 but I used one whole egg,next bake will be two egg whites for less fat.
I just found them too sweet myself.. So I think it's fine to reduce the amount of sugar right?
Also, would replacing the unsalted butter with Elle et Vire 70% fat free or "I can't believe it's butter" ruin the crust?
Thanks :)! Have a nice day!

'Flashdance' musical doesn't have much feeling, or fun
The movie "Flashdance" begins as Jennifer Beals' Alex pedals through a lovingly presented Pittsburgh at sunrise. That bicycle is quirky, as is the time Alex takes to scratch a kitten before setting off — filled with hope that a new day is coming for a dancer moving forward in her own offbeat way.
In the disappointing musical "Flashdance" that landed with a thud at the Marcus Center Tuesday night, we begin in Alex's dreary steel mill, where a search for gravitas means a lengthy backstory about recession and cutbacks — one of many places where this musical unsuccessfully attempts to channel "Billy Elliot." »Read Full Article(4)

Published in The New Yorker in January, 1960, when the author was 27, "A Sense of Shelter" recycles familiar raw materials from John Updike's early stories: an awkward high school boy whose community believes he will become something special one day, a small-town milieu, and a girl he can't make a match with because his future special destiny gets in the way. »Read Full Blog Post

Countdown to Spring: 16 Days
In journalism school we were discouraged from writing leads about the weather. It's a classic rookie move and almost always a cliche. Yet, we've been breaking our own rules day after day for weeks now. That's how exceptional this winter and the anticipation of spring has been.
With a little more than two weeks to go, those of us who enjoy these slippery and freezing conditions should take a last opportunity to gloat. Case in point: Today's forecast calls for snow and a high of 20 degrees. Soon enough, the spring lovers will be crooning about crocus blooms. »Read Full Blog Post

They owe it to themselves to see how getting on Winvale's GSA Schedule may be the better bet."

Charr Wants Mike Tyson as His Trainer For Vitali Klitschko
By Luke Furman
Heavyweight contender Manuel Charr (21-0, 11KOs) would like to secure the training services of former undisputed champion "Iron" Mike Tyson. Charr is trying to get Tyson to train him for a potential fight with WBC champion Vitali Klitschko, which may take place on September 1 or September 8 in either Germany or Ukraine.
"My coach [for the fight] has not been resolved. I am negotiating with Ulli Wegner and Mike Tyson. By the weekend, I will know what Tyson's conditions are....maybe he will do it voluntarily," Charr said.
Charr might be getting a little ahead of himself. According to Vitali's manager, Bernd Boente, the two sides are still far apart from a deal and Charr is still one of four possible candidates.
"We are in contract negotiations, but in some ways we are still a long way apart," Boente said.
Boente expects to finalize Vitali's opponent by next week. Other potential opponents include Canadian Bermane Stiverne (Ranked No. 3) and the Polish giant Mariusz Wach (Ranked No. 4). Charr is ranked at number 7.
If Vitali, a popular political figure in Ukraine, wins the October elections and becomes the mayor of Kiev, he will retire from boxing.

2001 Mazda MX-5 Miata Convertible Special Edition 2dr Roadster (1.8L 4cyl 6M)
If you are now looking at these reviews, chances are you are considering buying a used miata. Here is my advice. Buy it! Fantastic reliability, exceptional handling, beautiful to behold. Average mpg 30. What's not to like?
Simple exterior, tastefully designed interior.Quality plastic. Design still holds it own..9 years later! Wood steering wheel, handbrake and gear shift knob great touches. Comfortable seats, great Bose stereo. Buy this car! Top down, it's a budget Boxster..hard top on, it's a cheap Cayman.
Soft paint...invest in an invisible bra to protect hood and fenders.
Like other reviewers on this post, I love this car. I had a 1991 Miata and loved it and cried the day I sold it. 16 years later I found a pristine BRG SE with a matching hardtop and bought it on the spot. The dealership had it inside with the new Miatas, so I had a chance to compare them visually. I was truly disappointed with the 2009 Miata's interior..cheap plastic and the long strip of fake chrome over the glove box didn't ring my bell. I compared it to my 2001 interior, nothing can touch the beauty of the wood steering wheel, gear shift knob and tan leather seats. Handling is superb and the 6 speed tranny is a joy to shift (Amsoil gear shift oil eliminated my 3rd gear crunch.)
BRG Paint, factory side and nose skirts. (Tupperware it is called by the Miata community)Wood steering wheel, tan leather surfboard seats, great Bose stereo, great mileage..low 26 mpg per tank, high 36. Tan top, simple to operate, reliability, glass rear heated window, handling, smooth shifting!
Soft paint. Immediately noticed road rash, invested $$$ in an invisible bra for the full hood and both fenders..money well spent. My 1991 Miata also had soft paint, tree sap pitted it and Mazda repainted it. ABS standard. I love the unfettered and uncluttered design..keep it simple in the future!!
After looking at Miata, S2000, and the MR2. I finally decided if I could find a 2001 Miata SE (British Racing Green) for a fair amount I would buy on as a fun run about car. We have had the car for nearly a year and it has exceeded all expectations.
It is just so much fun to drive with the top down on sunny days. If the temperature is above 40 and it is sunny we drive with the top down. If not we just drive a different car.
Mine has the 6-speed, and I wish it had the 5-speeds gears, and then the 6th gear would truly be an OVERDRIVE. It would make the occasional highway drive much more pleasant. That being said it is not intended for the highway, but for the back twisty roads.
This is one fun car. Looked for several months before purchasing a used Special Edition with 53K miles. This is one of many Mazda's I have purchased. Great handling, good brakes, this car begs to be driven enthusiastically. The six speed is great, shifts smoothly and precisely and keeps the rpm's below 4000 at 75 mph. I will go out of my way to take a twisty set of roads, this car is easy to push hard in the corners. It takes a set and with smooth power application will drift progressively,and when pushed hard will break lose in the rear. If this Mazda lasts as long as my 91 truck I will be smiling for years to come.
6 speed, limited slip differential, British Racing Green paint.
A bit more power without a weight penalty.
A wonderful car that continues to bring
a smile to my face, and encourages the
development of good driving skills.
Plenty of power for normal driving, a
responsive and fun ride at highway
speeds. (Under 40 mph, in town, nothing
to brag about.) Stylish exterior, well
designed and thought out interior, and
high quality, both cosmetically and
mechanically make this car a winner.
The trunk holds more than its
appearance conveys, and so if you can
accept this car for what it is (2
seater, firm ride, limited cargo room,
I believe that you will be quite
pleased, and experience the same pride
of ownership that I have.
Favorites include wooden steering
wheel, shift knob,& parking brake
lever. Bose stereo system, convertable
top,sporty suspension, anatomic seats,
& user friendly cabin controls.
Mazda has gotton this car 98% right.
Here's what they should do to perfect
it. Add lights in: glove box, under
hood,& trunk w/switch linked to opening
(not headlights). And, if they ever
make a model w/a small rear bench seat,
(a la fiat spider)-I'll trade-in mine &
buy the new model!

Two names in the ring for next Windsor County state's attorneyBy Christian Avard
Staff Writer | February 12,2013HARTLAND — Gov. Peter Shumlin will take a hard look on who to select as the next Windsor County state's attorney. That's because the Windsor County Democratic Committee endorsed both candidates for the job.
The Windsor County Democratic Committee passed a resolution on Monday advising the governor that David Cahill of Norwich and Michael Kainen of Hartford, are qualified for the job. Cahill and Kainen are seeking to replace outgoing State's Attorney Robert Sand who was recently appointed by the governor to develop a new DUI court system.
The Windsor Democratic Committee acts in an advisory capacity and can only make suggestions to the governor. Windsor County Democratic Committee Chairman William Kuch was surprised by the delegates' decision at the special meeting.
"There weren't any 'nays.' I expected people wanted to make a choice and vote for one or the other," Kuch said.
Cahill is a Windsor County Deputy state's attorney who graduated from Dartmouth College with a major in history and German. He received his law degree from the University of Minnesota and has filed thousands of charges in a variety of criminal, civil and investigative matters in Windsor County.
Kainen is an Orange County Deputy state's attorney and a former Republican state representative. He is the former executive director of the State Sentencing Commission and has worked with the Windsor County State's Attorney's
Office for 20 years on a variety of cases.
It is unknown whenShumlin will make a decision on Sand's replacement. Sand will retire as Windsor County state's
attorney March 25.MORE IN This Just InKILLINGTON Police are waiting for the results of an autopsy of a 30-year-old woman who was... Full Story

Motorola DROID X ReviewMotorola DROID X 9.5
Going into the My Accounts screen allows you to add email accounts (POP and IMAP), corporate sync (Exchange), Facebook, Google (multiple), MySpace, Photobucket, Picasa, Skype, Twitter, Visual Voice Mail, and Yahoo! Mail. After your accounts are set up, you can then go into the Messaging app, which will show all you accounts there, including text messages, which can be viewed all together in the Universal Inbox, or separately by clicking on the account name. On the homescreens you can add the Messages widget, which will show new text and email messages, as well as the Social Networking widget that is fed with status updates from all your friends, and Social Status widget to update your own status. Of course you can also download the standard Facebook app from the Android Market, as some may prefer using that instead. There is also a News widget that can pull information from Digg, Fox Sports, MSNBC, Reuters, Travel Channel, and USA Today, but you can also enter in a custom RSS feed or webpage to gather information from.
For sending a message, you can naturally use any of your saved email accounts, GMail, or SMS/MMS. Using the on-screen QWERTY keyboard on the Motorola DROID X is a pleasure. Due to the 4.3" screen, the on-screen keys are large and easy to use, even with big hands. It can be used in portrait mode, but is best when used in landscape mode. The standard keyboard has word prediction and supports multitouch, which means you can press the shift key and a letter at the same time to make it capitalized. There is also the option to change to the Swype keyboard. If you're not familiar with Swype, you simply move your finger across the screen, connecting the letters to form your words, instead of having to press each letter separately. It can take beginners a few minutes to become accustomed to it, but there is an included tutorial that will train you on the different features of Swype. But if you'd rather speak instead of type, Android 2.1 comes with voice dictation. Just press the little microphone icon on the keyboard and speak each sentence. We found that the voice dictation works surprising well, with almost every word being correctly recognized.
The Motorola DROID X MB810 is a dual-band CDMA (800/1900 MHz) handset with high speed data connectivity available through 3G EVDO Rev A or Wi-Fi 802.11b/g/n. Bluetooth 2.1+EDR is supported with profiles for headset, hands-free, stereo, audio/visual remote control, dial up networking, human interface device, object push for vcard, messaging access, and phone book access.
The web browser on the Motorola DROID X is Webkit based and displays web sites nearly identical to the original Motorola DROID. The main advantage with the DROID X is naturally the larger screen size, allowing pages to be bigger and easier to see. Multitouch pinch-to-zoom is supported, as well as double-tap zooming. Up to 8 web windows can be active at once, and the Bookmarks are now shown in a 3D scrolling effect from side to side, though it can be changed to a standard list view. Overall, there were no surprises with the browser on the DROID X as it is fast and works quite well, though it would have been nice if Flash Lite was include with it. But instead we'll have to wait for the Android 2.2 Froyo update that will include Flash 10.1. If there is an embedded YouTube video in a page, you can click on it, and it will open up and play in a separate player. We loaded the same pages on the HTC Droid Incredible and on the original Motorola DROID, and the small web text on those was sharper and clearer.

Iphone 4, Evo 4g, and Driod X all get the same rating...

The big three X,I4,Evo all good news for us......
23. de2philly (Posts: 31; Member since: 30 Jun 2010)
My same thoughts exactly.. how do they all get the same exact rating... should be like EVO - 9.8 Driod X - 9.5 iphone4 - 9.0 IMO
25. ilikesmrtphnz (Posts: 7; Member since: 23 Jun 2010)
IMO... that's how it definitely should have been

Hopefully T-Mobile can get a phone with a rating like that cause I'm jealous now.. They are the only network to not have an awesome phone right now cause the HD2 was never an option for me because of the windows OS.. It's either Android OS for me or switch and try the Apple OS again...
39. BlackSirius16 (Posts: 84; Member since: 21 May 2010)
be on the lookout for a Nexus two or something
5. dyster (Posts: 63; Member since: 31 Mar 2010)
Review is ok. I don't see a point of further comparison because you can't buy Ip4, X, Evo from the same carrier. All the carriers now have good offerings.

8. shaunieo (Posts: 20; Member since: 04 Sep 2009)
As one of the few AT&T fans on here who defends the blue, i will point out that we let anyone who was eligible for upgarde this year get the new Iphone. Not sure if Big Red did that or not, but they should...........
9. LGVX1993 (Posts: 260; Member since: 27 Jan 2009)
Yeah they're doing that for the Droid X too.
18. cc16177 (Posts: 312; Member since: 09 May 2010)
Yeah the sooner they sell them the more they can get out the door before everyone realizes you can't make phone calls.
41. Mightymack (Posts: 74; Member since: 16 Jul 2010)
i got mine on upgrade!
11. narley (Posts: 357; Member since: 14 May 2009)
i am honestly surprised they gave it this high of rating. seems like each VZW phone that comes out phonearena cuts them off at the knees. i'm presently surprised.
12. greyhulk (Posts: 156; Member since: 30 Jun 2010)
Is it just me, or do all of the photos look like crap? They're kind of blurry. I hope that's not really going to be the quality of the camera. The original Droid wasn't that great, but I was hoping Motorola would fix that in future phones.
16. rhand (Posts: 1; Member since: 30 Jun 2010)
I agree ... the photos look terrible. This is a major disappointment. Wished they'd put some effort into making a better quality camera instead of just cramming more megapixels onto the tiny light sensor just to please the marketing department.
17. Hello-dirt (Posts: 102; Member since: 02 May 2010)
I am going to guess that you have seen what you get: a high megapixel rating that only works in strong light. My Evo is the same-8mp quality only if subject not moving and in bright light and a 720p video that stutters. Phone specs are becoming like HP ratings for cars, inflated to help sell the machine.
22. greyhulk (Posts: 156; Member since: 30 Jun 2010)
The odd part is, they said the photos look "good" in their review. I have read all of the Droid X reviews. The sample pictures are a mixed bag on all of them. Some of them look really good, others look like crap (like the ones here). Many of the reviewers slam the photo quality. It reminds me of all of the reviews and sample photos on the original Droid. But hey, at least you don't have to hold it a certain way to make phone calls, right?
34. BlackSirius16 (Posts: 84; Member since: 21 May 2010)
idk why these photos are terribel but the ones on engadget, Boy Genuis Report, and gizmodo are all way better try looking their for actually photo quality
13. ace1122 (Posts: 237; Member since: 23 Mar 2009)
Now all we have to wait for is a phone comparison between this and the iphone- not like they're gonna even tell us the winner but i bet the winner will be the one who can at least make calls.
15. networkdood (Posts: 6330; Member since: 31 Mar 2010)
This phone is like a giant when you compare it to my ARIA - looks great, though.
19. RORYREVOLUTION (Posts: 3108; Member since: 12 Jan 2010)
Say hello to the big three. EVO, iPhone 4, and Droid X.
20. GWNIII (Posts: 8; Member since: 17 Jun 2010)
I'm due for an upgrade, but I just can't justify buying this without LTE. The promise of a 2GHZ monster by the end of the year and the rumblings of an LTE iPhone are a little too enticing. Unfortunately, iPhones seem to be the only future proof phones.
35. BlackSirius16 (Posts: 84; Member since: 21 May 2010)
only future proof if your apple exclusive, if your not than its practically already outdated
26. josuearisty (Posts: 148; Member since: 30 Sep 2009)
Thats the real rating for this phone. 9.5 not 10, but 9.5, I think that is there were a front-facing camera, the rating would be 10
27. psn1819 (Posts: 42; Member since: 06 Jun 2010)
I would rate the DROIDX a 10 if motorola would have put SENSE UI on it...the specs on this phone are out of this world...I know that HTC pattens sense ui,but,picturing it would look amazing
30. steveomac (Posts: 3; Member since: 05 Jul 2010)
ok...Phone arena, stop with the REALLY crappy video reviews, stop reading the piece of paper you got in front of you, throw it in the trash and just talk about the phone, stop with your rehearsed ben stein sounding voice, I love your site, I go to it every day but I hate your video reviews.
38. sgtslayer321 (Posts: 36; Member since: 01 Oct 2009)
I actually like them. :-]
31. Phil01 (Posts: 1; Member since: 05 Jul 2010)
When this phone will be available without contract, unlocked? Thank you in advance
32. rtimi26 (Posts: 42; Member since: 16 Mar 2009)
Oh don't forget they gave the galaxy s less than a 9.0. Yet it has the best graphics of the 3, better screen and better cpu. Wow phonearena stop with this, just because a screen is big doesn't make it a winner.
36. BlackSirius16 (Posts: 84; Member since: 21 May 2010)
the Galaxy screen is worse in sunlight and an absolute battery hog, the processor is bogged down by a UI overskin that they had no idea how to integrate probably with their processing scheme. also the UI itself isn't worth the slow down, its just annoying. also the camera is mediocre. AKA Droid X is better. not to say the Galaxy is shitty its just not as good

FALSE. SAMOLED is far better than Droid X screen. It uses less battery power (thats one of the main points in using AMOLED displays). The processor is MUCH MUCH better (in GLBench SGS gets 1400 frames and Droid X only 800... thats almost twice) The UI is changeable and it's smoother on SGS, 'coz it has much better hardware. The camera is better since it records HD with 30fps, not only with 24. (24 = lag). Not to mention Bluetooth 3.0 and secondary camera.

And they give Samsung Galaxy S 8.5/10. SGS is better than both EVO and Droid X with its SAMOLED display, HD @ 30 fps, PowerVR SGX 540 GPU, Bluetooth 3.0 etc. It should be something like this: iPhone 4 - 9.5/10 Samsung Galaxy S - 9.4/10 Droid X - 9.1/10 EVO - 9/10

The Droid X mb810 is junk. The touchscreen does not work. The phone rings. I touch and slide and it will not answer. I miss calls constantly. To make a call back I touch "recent" calls and touch A. The Droid X calls B or C or even D, far down the screen. When trying to search the internet, I touch the globe icon. Nothing. Dead. This phone is JUNK! I called Motorola and they suggest removing the battery every (EVERY!) time it happens or do a hard reset (and losing all data). JUNK JUNK JUNK. Avoid this phone.

President Barack Obama signed an executive order to impose visa restrictions and freeze any US assets of 20 more top officials and business people. The European Union also added more 12 names to its list of people facing sanctions in protest at Russia's absorption of Crimea after a referendum in the peninsula to leave Ukraine in favour of unification with Russia.
The Kremlin has not ruled out taking response measures with regard to Montenegro, Albania, Iceland, Lichtenstein, Norway and Ukraine, which have joined the sanctions imposed on Russia, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters
The first formal meeting in the legal proceedings in which the Crimean museums that are now under the Russian jurisdiction, demand the return to them of a collection of Scythian gold displayed at an exhibit in the Allard Pierson Museum at Amsterdam University, has been held in the Amsterdam court
The Russian Foreign Ministry views the new U.S. sanctions against Russia as an attempt to take revenge for the fact that the events in Ukraine are not unfolding in a way Washington would like them to unfold

Vijay Prashad: One of the great triumphs of the past two decades has been the gradual and by now almost total demise of the legitimacy of the current phase of capitalism, in other words, neo-liberalism.
Drugs and Ron Paul's Appeal to Young Voters

A Hollow Bomber Jacket
Norman Solomon: Evidence of the Obama administration's "moral collapse" is profuse; the pattern is clear, the consequences already terrible. During the weeks and months ahead, progressives will need to engage in fresh strategic discussions. Public candor may be insufficient, but it is necessary.
The Crackpot Gap: Why It May Be A Boon To Democrats But A Danger To America
Robert Reich: We're in the midst of an ongoing economic emergency that requires clear thinking, intense work, and practical ideas. It also requires that we join together rather than be pushed apart. The loonies who are taking over the GOP pose a real and present danger.
The Republican Party in Disguise
Steve Hockstadt: The Tea Partiers are not what they seem. They say they're about freedom, not party, that they just want government off their backs. They appear to attack incumbents of both parties. So why are they all Republicans?
Are the People Really Seizing Power?
Tim Gatto: Everyone who calls themselves liberal, progressive, socialist or populist should pitch in and get the corporate lackeys out of Washington and give the government back to the people who really own it. This is just a beginning. We can't sit on our laurels and let others keep the momentum going.
Amending the Civil Rights Act of 1964 Would Give Equality to All Americans
Tracy Emblem: As a society, we should consider amending the Civil Rights Act of 1964 to include the words "sexual orientation" and "gender identity" placed next to the words "race and gender."
Keep Grant on the 50
Berry Craig: When Reagan said he was a "states' rights" guy, "he was elbow deep in the same old race-baiting Southern strategy of Goldwater and Nixon" and "tapping out the code," Bob Herbert wrote in the New York Times in 2007. "It was understood that when politicians started chirping about 'states' rights' to white people in places like Neshoba County they were saying that when it comes down to you and the blacks, we're with you. And Reagan meant it."
Do We Still Need to Celebrate Black History Month?
Rev. Irene Monroe: Within the African- American LGBTQ community, Black History Month has always come under criticism. And rightly so! The absence of LGBTQ people of African descent in the month-long celebration is evidence of how race, gender and sexual politics of the dominant culture are reinscribed in black culture as well.
To Succeed, Obama Needs to Channel His Inner LBJ
Obama should let any Democratic foot-draggers know that if they do not get with the program, he will un-elect them and put in Democrats more in tune with his priorities. The threat would be credible, as he is one of the great campaigners of modern political history.
Obama and the Legacy of the 1963 March on Washington
August 28, 2008 marks the 45th anniversary of the March on Washington. Forty-fifth anniversaries rarely garner the kind of attention reserved for their quarter and half-century counterparts.

I've been reading a book about the federal deficit titled "Where Does the Money Go?"
According to the authors, Social Security and Medicare represent the largest share of the growing deficit. If both parties had not used the Social Security surplus funds for general expenditures, this program would not be facing insolvency to the degree it is now.
Social Security IOUs are not due until 2041, but Medicare will face serious problems by 2013 when the new health care reform bill is due to start. Those promoting the new health care bill claim they will fund the new bill in part by cuts to Medicare and Medicaid.
Now, Medicare will need cuts in benefits as well as raising taxes just to keep the program sort of afloat. Why would they be cutting benefits on an insolvent program in order to pay for a new program? And why would they do this at the projected year for Medicare's first big shortfall. All we have to do is check the General Accounting Office Web site for the deficit figures.
Something is not quite right here. Things aren't adding up.

Albert Fried and Co's Tullo believes Apple would be better served if it acquired Pandora. It would take considerable money for Apple to build what has taken Pandora over a decade to make, especially if Apple's service is ad-supported.
Staffing a local sales force is an expensive and time-consuming proposition.
"Why wouldn't Apple want to leverage Pandora's ad business?" asked Tullo. "Pandora is a great content acquisition."
Sentiment: Strong Buy
or Google, see the headline today. Amazon, Facebook and some traditional Terrestrial Broadcasters are all looking at Pandora. The mobile advertising growth is a key driver for all of these companies. Who needs Pandora the industry leader in mobile growth the most ?
Nope, it will be Amazon!
P's existing proven sales-force would be a tremendous asset to Apple. An area Apple hasn't historically been good at . Imagine the results with the Apple brand $$$. Really makes sense and easily could be integrated to Itunes. Would be a tremendous growth driver to the cash rich Apple. With Apple special licensing agreements in place the sky is the limit for growth.
"Why wouldn't Apple want to leverage Pandora's ad business?"
Maybe because Apple's relationship with the various record labels is a huge advantage in negotiating favorable royalties directly with those labels, rather than taking on Pandora's cost structure and loss leading business model.

DONUT 1: Nowitzki's no-news night ...
Dirk Nowitzki sat again as he missed the Dallas Mavericks' second home preseason game, a 100-94 loss to the Suns, with a swollen knee. Despite the regularly-tossed-around idea that no news is good news, that's not necessarily the case with Dirk here. With a wait-and-see injury like the one Nowitzki has, sitting around without answers can be the peak of frustration. The only possible news that can come from this situation is that Dirk will play ... continue therapy ... and simply hope the swelling in his knee stays down or that he will opt for surgery and miss significant time.
Owner Mark Cuban, for one, is at least feigning calm.
Nope, not at all,'' Cuban told reporters when asked about being concerned. "He'll be fine. He's gone through (injuries) before. We saw it last year and dealt with it. We'll deal with it again."
Right now, no news isn't good news; no news is somewhat-decent-while-we-nibble-our-nails news.
DONUT 2: Things Just Aren't The Same ...
For an almost-half-decade window during the 2000's, the Phoenix Suns and Dallas Mavericks were a premier rivalry in the NBA. Those classic shootouts and heart stopping playoff matchups featured Dirk, Steve Nash, Amare Stoudemire, Jason Terry, Shawn Marion, and Josh Howard, among quite a few others. Granted last night was just a preseason meeting, but the starting lineups weren't QUITE the same as those memorable games from 2005 to 2007.
In all, the only big name from those days that even saw the court was Shawn Marion ... except he's on the other team this time around. No Dirk, no Nash, no Jet, no Devin Harris. Goran Dragic is still around, though. And so is the uptempo pace.
So there's that.
DONUT 3: Sparks From The Other Power Forward ...
With Dirk out again, Elton Brand got his third consecutive start at power forward and provided an early spark with 11 points in the first quarter. Brand finished with that scoring total on 5-of-10 shooting and threw in five rebounds and three assists while filling some very big German shoes.
Assuming Dirk is able to tough it out with this precarious knee situation, Brand's scoring bursts will be a perfect complement from the depth of the frontcourt. Surrounding Dirk with scorers was clearly a priority this offseason and Brand seems capable of pulling his weight with some Dirk-like work in the pick-and-pop. The scoring faded here eventually, but in a real game? You can see it'll be there.
DONUT 4: Vinny The Microwave ...
One day after O.J. Mayo compared himself to a microwave, Vinsanity put on the same sort of show.
DONUT 5: Go say hello at Studio Movie Grill! ...
The good folks at Studio Movie Grill are ready to show Mavs fans a good time! Go check 'em out and stay tuned for some fun projects DB.com is working on in coordination with Studio Movie Grill!
DONUT 6: The Family Barbecue ...
Delonte West playfully referred to his coach as "Uncle Ricky'' and compared his one-day suspension to a dispute as a "family barbecue.'' Rick Carlisle playfully referred to West as a player with a personality so "different'' that while most NBA players "run on gas, Delonte runs on diesel.'' And the coach also poked back at nosy media wishing to know the details of the incident that led to the player's punishment for Monday's conduct detrimental to the team. The coach cited a song called "King of Anything'': "It's a song about people who should mind their own ------- business,'' Carlisle said.
So we've got Uncle Ricky, barbecue, gas pumps and a Sara Bareilles song. Oh, and a FishToon:
Can we get back to Dallas Mavericks basketball now?
"Uncle Ricky handled the situation, you know what I mean?" West said Wednesday morning as the team prepared for a preseason evening visit from the Suns. "We went and had a talk, and we came right back to the barbecue."
West, who deals with bipolar disorder, joined his coach in declining to detail the specifics of the behavioral issue. And while all of us "Kings of Anything'' wish to know more (and will continue to explore), it's admirable in a sense that Uncle Ricky – who goofily referred to reporters as "all my nephews'' -- wishes to keep this in the family.
"We want to keep things in house," West said. "The things that came out really had nothing to do with basketball. We got to the bottom of it and got some communication between those who were involved."
Carlisle and GM Donnie Nelson were involved in a Tuesday meeting with West to settle the situation.
"There was an outstanding issue, and we needed to talk about it," Carlisle said. "He needed to refocus, and he's in the process of doing that. It's going to be work. It's going to be daily work for him to do that, and I've got to help him and our organization is going to help him, too.''
West insists that he doesn't have problems with his role or playing time.
"I'm happy to be here," West said. "I'm a Dallas Maverick. Whatever role they have for me this year, I'm going to accept it with open arms.''
Delonte played 18 minutes and scored seven points, with four assists but three turnovers, the same total that plagued Collison and Mayo.
DONUT 7: Crowder Crowding The Forward Spot ...
There was a telling moment about rookie Jae Crowder in the second quarter.
The engine Crowder plays with is well-documented, as is his apparent increased shooting range. Still, the main thing rookies need to gain in order to see consistent minutes as a young player is their coach's trust, which is obviously not very easily done. Crowder continued building his case for that trust in the second quarter by showing the basketball IQ to swing the ball with an extra pass to spring Dahntay Jones for a wide open three. Crowder had a good look when he received the ball, but swung it to Jones for an even better look, a skill even the most seasoned NBA player can have trouble with.
Short and simple, Crowder has come to the Mavs really looking like he knows what to do without allowing the level of play appear over his head. He's got an NBA body and, so far, an NBA mindset.
His positive approach is a small thing that seems easy, but will go a long way to helping Crowder get in the mix as an NBA freshman.
DONUT 8: The New Look Three-Guard Lineup ...
MFFLs may have gotten used to the Kidd-Jet-Barea three-PG lineup over recent years, but those days are long gone. That version of the 3-PG Attack may be resting in peace, but the concept remains alive and well.
Early in the third quarter Coach Carlisle toyed with the idea of Darren Collison and Dominique Jones at the guard spots, with OJ Mayo playing "small forward." Marion and Chris Kaman rounded out the lineup at the 4 and 5 positions.
It seems very unlikely that the Collison-Jones-Mayo combo will see the light of day in the regular season, but it's interesting to note that Carlisle still has a variation of that scheme in his back pocket.
DONUT 9: Thanks, Esparza's! ...
The gang at Esparza's in Grapevine loves that it's Mavs season and the Mavs love Esparza's, too! Let me put it this way: You never know who you'll see out on Esparza's famous front porch! Thanks for your sponsorship, Esparza's!

DONUT 11: No Go For DoJo ...
After another offseason of that 'potential' word floating around regarding Mavs guard Dominique Jones, he just doesn't seem to be able to consistently find a spot on this team. DoJo can get to the rim as he always has, but finishing once he gets there is still an issue.
A big one for a young guard who is trying to prove something.
In addition to having problems at the basket, Jones' decision-making still leaves quite a bit to be desired. Too many times he seems to be caught up in the air with nowhere to go, leading to a turnover or a missed shot. With the Mavs investing so much in Mayo and rookie Jared Cunningham in Jones' position, it's time for him to step up.
But if not now, when? And where?
DONUT 12: The Rookie Revue ...
The aforementioned Crowder put up 10 points and six rebounds in 26 minutes, but the best thing to be said for him is that he's looked like an NBA player up to this point. That's high praise for a kid like him considering so many in the NBA struggle with maintaining that title on a regular basis. Cunningham had two points in 15 minutes and center Bernard James was held to one point in just six minutes of playing time.
DONUT 13: The Final Word ...
In the end, the Mavericks fell to the Suns 100-94 despite a spirited comeback attempt from many of the young Mavs at the end of the game. A loss is a loss, but there were some decent performances and some positives to take from the game, though.
Right, Coach?
"Our team defense was poor," Rick Carlisle made sure to state first-thing in his postgame press conference.
Oh…well. Okay, then.
