Highline Medical dedicates new West Seattle facility in advance of Nov. 19 opening
Highline Medical Center will have a busy weekend as they perform the final move to their new Urgent Care and Family Medicine facility in West Seattle's Triangle, with plans to start seeing patients there on Monday, Nov. 19.
But before the big move takes place, Highline took a moment on Thursday afternoon, Nov. 15, to dedicate the new 12,900 sq. foot building with a ribbon cutting ceremony, live jazz, appetizers and tours for guests and those integral to the project.
"This is an amazing transformation," Highline Medical Center Board of Trustees Chair Larry Bjork said at the event, thanking HSD Construction and Burgess Architects for their help. "Congratulations to you all. This is a wonderful facility and we are proud to be here and we are proud to be able to serve this community for many, many, many years."
The old Cycle U building at 4550 Fauntleroy Way S.W. has been completely transformed over the course of six months, now housing a 2,500 sq. foot Urgent Care facility on the main floor and a 9,000 sq. foot Family Medicine branch on the lower level. Urgent Care has five exam rooms, one procedure room, one x-ray room and one lab while Family Medicine has 18 exam rooms, one procedure room and one lab.
Highline Medical CEO Mark Benedum thanked the physicians and their support staff who have worked at West Seattle's Family Medicine and, more recently, Urgent Care facilities who will be coming together under one larger roof.
Dr. Peter Maurice, president of Highline's medical staff, said "It is really impressive to see the hospital make such a dramatic footprint in this community … As a West Seattle resident and a father of three young children, I can tell you how important it is to me to have high quality care, particularly urgent care, available in my neighborhood. I want to commend everyone involved in this project for their good work in making health care more accessible in West Seattle."
Marty Couret, ARNP and the clinic's medical director took a moment to thank Lisa Randall, the West Seattle clinic manager, for her help in making the transition a reality and talked about the importance of having local health care options.
"We have been here for over two decades," Couret said. "Highline is committed to West Seattle, and with this new facility you can count us being here for a long time to come."
Firefighters from Fire Station #32 just across the road stopped by for the event as well, and Lt. Erwin Chappel shared a few comments.
"We look forward to working with you, we share the same mission statement in regards to comprehensive care, emergency care, urgent care," he said. "We welcome you to the neighborhood and community."
Rev. Amy Hitchens, Highline's hospital chaplain, blessed the building, the staff and their mission and a slew of scissors were produced for the cutting of the ribbon. As the remarks ended and the ribbon fell; casual conversation and jazz resumed as bacon-wrapped dates were consumed, and then partially burnt off as people toured the newest home for medical care in West Seattle.
To read more on the new facility, please check out the Herald's sneak peek.
Highline plans to hold an open house for the public in the new facility in the coming months.

The 10 scenes of The lamp. P.2This project goes back a ways… There was a time back in the 1980's when I thought more in terms of multi panels to express my ideas, comic strip style. This is one of those projects.Divided into part one and part two each with a title page adding up to 12 frames. A humorous look at the psyche, inspired by my bendy table lamp. Part one, the first title + 5 pages, represents the lamp becoming aware of itself. Close up picture is of higher resolution so as to get a better look at the texture and brushstroke. Third picture has me holding the folder open in which I keep the 12 pages... to put things into perspective...The date is on the last panel only, Aug. 1987. The paint looks as fresh now as when the work was newly done, a testament to the quality of the paint & the paper. My work at that time was done without the use of preliminary sketches, or pencil lines. This is paint applied directly onto a blank page.Available individually, but best as a complete set.Packaging for my small paintings like this one is sealed in plastic sleeve, sealed in a padded hard plastic file case, and in an envelope .Please note that you can purchase in one order up to 6 paintings of same size or smaller to be included in the same 1 shipping fee.Interested to have your idea painted in this style?

Students who will enter into the 2nd year of study in the MOT professional program are invited to apply for this annual scholarship.

Tide and Time Waits for No Man

There are two major points on the routes where you need to cross rivers during the low tide, to coincide with these times I'd start at the north end and get a head of steam up in order to get to the crossings in time. I had options to only walk part of the track but I decided that taking the bull in two hands and spoiling the broth was the best course of action and I'd try and walk the entire 51Km in two days. I knew I may be biting off more that I could chew but I had the option of water taxis to get me out of there if necessary! To put this into perspective, I would be walking the equivalent of three quarters of a marathon one day, then a half marathon the next, with a couple of hills thrown in for good measure
I couldn't have hoped for a nicer day to start the trek, blue skies, cool weather, beautiful coast as promised. I really can't describe just how amazing it looked. The walk was going well and I decided to make a small detour to Separation Point where it's possible to view seals and sea birds hanging about on the rocks, not really taking too much notice of me, it was worthwhile.
After a few hours of walking I looked out the the sea and saw a bit of a storm brewing, I had no idea which way it'd head so the only option open to me was to continue on the trek. I was making good time and wasn't worried about the tidal crossings that I'd need to make.....
It started as a light rain, nothing to worry about. I didn't even bother to put my rain jacket on. I'd perhaps walked about 10Km by this point, 20 Km to go by the end of the day. Just as I reached the top of a ridge between a couple of bays the heavens just opened up. Hail. I fished for my rain jacket in my bag, catching it after a few seconds. It was too late my T-shirt was already sodden. I tried to hide under a tree here but there just wasn't enough shelter. I started walking down the track to find some bigger trees, this soon changed into a sprint in an attempt to get out of the ice-cream-headache-inducing hail stones that were embedding themselves into my skull
The hail wasn't letting up and I had a schedule to keep. I also knew that I wasn't too far from shelter at Totaranui, I just had to brave it. I was drenched, wet to the skin. I turned up there after a further half hour like a fish out of water. Not surprisingly I found the shelter there to be rather busy with several people looking worse off than me (especially the ones that had decided to wear jeans and not bring any waterproofs or warm clothes!)
I sheltered here for a while until the storm passed and the weather tuned down to just persistant rain. I had to get going. I changed T-shirt, felt better and headed off again. despite the weather I was still in good spirits and managed to get to the first crossing at Awaroa just as the tide was at its lowest. I'd now been walking for 5 hours and was feeling a little tired, but I had to go on and get across the next tidal crossing. I was day dreaming about getting across this as it meant I could stop and take a proper rest, my schedule would have been fine on a nice day, but the weather had made the going much more difficult.
I could have jumped with joy if I'd had the energy when I finally got to Onetahuti and across the river before the tide had its nasty way with it
I still had one and a half hours to go and when I started again I felt really stiff, taking a while to get warmed up again. The thought of getting to the hut is what drove me on next, dreaming of nice warm and dry pad. I was almost there when I got my next bit of bad news. I found a sign that pointed one way saying "Bark Bay Huts" and another pointing another direction saying "Bark Bay Huts (High Tide Crossing)", What! why hadn't anyone told me about this. I was so tired that I didn't want any extra milage so headed in the direction of the first sign.
The rain had died down enough and I'd started to dry out a little, ha ha. When I reached the river it was waist high, and since I'd walked down a hill for five minutes from the sign there was no way I was heading back. Off came the socks and shoes and I just waded it, I was past caring at this point.
9 Hours and 30 Kilometers after the start I reached the hut, bliss, I could have kissed the hut. I found a not very small group huddled around the gas fire drying off their clothes
After a few hours and with drier clothes I literally hobbled to bed and had a fantastic night's sleep. I had to get up early the next day and get to the end of the track before 3pm for my bus so there were still deadlines to meet. I'd expected my legs to be aching and have to pull out due to them, but they were fine. What I did have was a little pain in my foot, possibily my metatarsal! Quite often it's possible to walk off these little niggles once you get warmed up. I tried, but it didn't work. An hour and a half after leaving Bark Bay I arrived in Torrent Bay. I'd have had an awful day if I'd tried to continue so I just sat there and waited for a water taxi to take me to the end of the trail.
It eventually took my three hours to catch one as I'd arrived there before 9am, however it was probably one of the most fantastic places that you could wait. The taxi was great, when we arrived at Marahau we all stayed on the boat while it was driven onto a trailer
I was a bit disappointed that didn't finish the walk but I'd walked a fair portion of it and it'd not disappointed me, it'd been amazing. I plan to do more walking before I leave New Zealand as well so it's pointless aggrivating it. If it doesn't heal in a couple of days then I'll get it checked out when I arrive in Wellington.
I got back to Nelson in the afternoon and ended up just sleeping for a couple of hours, I was knackered!

Design of Intelligent Multi-Agent Systems
€ 208,49
Lieferbar innerhalb von 2-3 Tagen
Oktober 2004
BeschreibungThere is a tremendous interest in the design and applications of agents in virtually every area including avionics, business, internet, engineering, health sciences and management. There is no agreed one definition of an agent but we can define an agent as a computer program that autonomously or semi-autonomously acts on behalf of the user. In the last five years transition of intelligent systems research in general and agent based research in particular from a laboratory environment into the real world has resulted in the emergence of several phenomenon. These trends can be placed in three catego ries, namely, humanization, architectures and learning and adapta tion. These phenomena are distinct from the traditional logic centered approach associated with the agent paradigm. Humaniza tion of agents can be understood among other aspects, in terms of the semantics quality of design of agents. The need to humanize agents is to allow practitioners and users to make more effective use of this technology. It relates to the semantic quality of the agent design. Further, context-awareness is another aspect which has as sumed importance in the light of ubiquitous computing and ambi ent intelligence. The widespread and varied use of agents on the other hand has cre ated a need for agent-based software development frameworks and design patterns as well architectures for situated interaction, nego tiation, e-commerce, e-business and informational retrieval. Fi- vi Preface nally, traditional agent designs did not incorporate human-like abilities of learning and adaptation.

Having been a big fan of Seth Godin for years now, anytime he talks, I listen… If you are an artist, songwriter, musician, and you don't know about Seth yet, go learn. Read Tribes and Linchpin, or any other of his 13 books… And go from there. He's a marketing legend with a unique attitude and stance on artistry and passion as a key commodity and value driver of the new economy.
Anyway, in a recent podcast with Seth Godin discusses some of the important concepts for independent artists to understand – moving forward in the new music business. I agree with just about all of them. I figured it would be useful to outline the key points, at least for those of you who are still a little behind on the new indie artist model concepts.
The Old Music Business vs. the New Music Business
Basically, the 1960-Y2K-ish major label powers that be who didn't evolve with the times and technology, perpetuate the "raise your hand music industry," where you hope and rely on luckily getting picked, vs. the new-DIY model… Where YOU can pick Yourself. There are obvious benefits to this but inherently very real consequences as well.
Essentially-it requires more skills, more dedication, and more commitment-because you are not only the talent, you are also the business owner and responsible for marketing as well.
Your job is to create music that captivates and inspires on a small scale.
Stop trying to fill Madison square garden, before you've filled the local bar you gig at. Your goal is to make an impact that leaves and impression and attracts true fans that you form relationships, engage and communicate with. Start with 10, then build 20, and keep compounding.
The 1,000 true fan model.
1,000 true fans – who'll pay $50 a year, can earn you a sustainable living. Remember to consider this, ARE THERE 10,000 people who would REALLY care about the music you'd make, or do make?
Do it for the passion, not for the money.
Don't compromise for the masses… Create music that you are passionate about, make what you believe in. Do it loud, and do it proud!
What if things just aren't working as an independent artist?
There are basically two things you can change… The group, or the work. You'll have to decide which is the problem, and then find a solution.

MR. MAC QUEDY. And in many others, sir, I believe. Morals and metaphysics,
politics and political economy, the way to make the most of all the modifications
of smoke; steam, gas, and paper currency; you have all these to learn from us; in
short, all the arts and sciences. We are the modern Athenians.
REV. DR. FOLLIOTT. I, for one, sir, am content to learn nothing from you but the
art and science of fish for breakfast. Be content, sir, to rival the Boeotians, whose
redeeming virtue was in fish, touching which point you may consult Aristophanes
and his scholiast in the passage of Lysistrata, [Greek text], and leave the name
of Athenians to those who have a sense of the beautiful, and a perception of
metrical quantity.
MR. MAC QUEDY. Then, sir, I presume you set no value on the right principles
of rent, profit, wages, and currency?
REV. DR. FOLLIOTT. My principles, sir, in these things are, to take as much as I
can get, and pay no more than I can help. These are every man's principles,
whether they be the right principles or no. There, sir, is political economy in a
MR. MAC QUEDY. The principles, sir, which regulate production and
consumption are independent of the will of any individual as to giving or taking,
and do not lie in a nutshell by any means.
REV. DR. FOLLIOTT. Sir, I will thank you for a leg of that capon.
LORD BOSSNOWL. But, sir, by-the-bye, how came your footman to be going
into your cook's room? It was very providential to be sure, but REV. DR.
FOLLIOTT. Sir, as good came of it, I shut my eyes, and ask no questions. I
suppose he was going to study hydrostatics, and he found himself under the
necessity of practising hydraulics.
MR. FIREDAMP. Sir, you seem to make very light of science.
REV. DR. FOLLIOTT. Yes, sir, such science as the learned friend deals in:
everything for everybody, science for all, schools for all, rhetoric for all, law for all,
physic for all, words for all, and sense for none. I say, sir, law for lawyers, and
cookery for cooks: and I wish the learned friend, for all his life, a cook that will
pass her time in studying his works; then every dinner he sits down to at home,
he will sit on the stool of repentance.
LORD BOSSNOWL. Now really that would be too severe: my cook should read
nothing but Ude.
REV. DR. FOLLIOTT. No, sir! let Ude and the learned friend singe fowls
together; let both avaunt from my kitchen. [Greek text]. Ude says an elegant
supper may be given with sandwiches. Horresco referens. An elegant supper. Di
meliora piis. No Ude for me. Conviviality went out with punch and suppers. I
cherish their memory. I sup when I can, but not upon sandwiches. To offer me a
sandwich, when I am looking for a supper, is to add insult to injury. Let the
learned friend, and the modern Athenians, sup upon sandwiches.
MR. MAC QUEDY. Nay, sir; the modern Athenians know better than that. A
literary supper in sweet Edinbro' would cure you of the prejudice you seem to
cherish against us.
REV. DR. FOLLIOTT. Well, sir, well; there is cogency in a good supper; a good
supper in these degenerate days bespeaks a good man; but much more is

The Pakistan Floods — Even the Known Unknowns Are Terrifying
August 9, 2010 at 3:32 PM Leave a comment
The Effects of the Pakistan Floods, Worst National Disaster in Years:
The floods in Pakistan are now worse than Haiti's January 2010 earthquake, the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami, and the 2005 Kashmir earthquake combined, the United Nations' Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs announced on Monday. The floods have killed 1,600, displaced 1 million from their homes, and affected 15 million in all. The latter number includes many who, because they have lost access to food and clean drinking water, may be at serious risk of starvation or such water-borne diseases as cholera. Here are the effects of this ongoing humanitarian disaster.
Of the five potential disasters with the disaster that are chronicled in the article, this is huge because, don't forget, Pakistan has a nuclear bomb:
Government Stability Weakened Academic and blogger Juan Cole cautions, "The ruling Pakistan People's Party is being widely criticized for its failure to respond to the massive needs of the people, generated by this catastrophe. And President Asaf Ali Zardari's visit to the UK, where he met with British Prime Minister David Cameron, has provoked a firestorm of criticism from Pakistanis who think he should have stayed home and helped manage the crisis. Anything that could pull down the government, as an inept response to the flood could, has security implications in the fight against the Taliban. (The Pakistani Taliban have actually taken advantage of the chaos to launch some attacks)."

i have a very slight ski jump nose with the tip just sticking out more than upwards. If i move the tip down with a ruler along my nose or just with my finger then i have a nose similar to johnny depp. getting it to stay just this half a cm down would mean i could become a model and start earning lots of money and have many children and die with complete content. WILL taping my nose at night have any effect? even in the short term? i am too poor to consider injection/ surg, thanks for reading

Unrealistic Nose Expectations
A few comments I would STRONGLY advise you NOT to subject your nose to fruitless and possibly dangerous taping. It is extremely unlikely to work the way you want it to and much more likely to produce a permanent scar along the top and sides of the nose which could never be erased.
As regards your motivation "getting it to stay just this half a cm down would mean i could become a model and start earning lots of money and have many children and die with complete content". New York and Laos Angeles are filled with hundreds of thousands of aspiring actors and models with perfect features. VERY few end up making a living based on their looks and even fewer become as well known as Johnny, Brad and the others. I would strongly suggest you have a more realistic back up plan for achieving everlasting "complete content" in your golden years. Just in case.

Re: Travel to Venezuela
There are so few boats going there due to security and political problems that I don't thing you would have a chance in hell of finding one to take you.
As for renting a boat to take you, I don't think that's a viable option either.
Re: Travel to Venezuela
Well if you need a crew member with a few short/mid-length passages under his belt let me know. Sounds like a lot of fun!
Travel to Venezuela
Hello! About five years ago I had the experience of being hired on as crew to deliver a boat from Trinidad to Ft. Lauderdale. It was a motor boat, but the experience of island hopping changed me forever and I am hoping to recreate the experience with my family.
We are preparing to move back to my husband's home country of Venezuela and have fantasized about being able to travel by boat to get there. He's 32, I'm 28 and we have two kids in tow. We are looking to hire a boat (a sailboat would be nice - but I'll readily admit that neither one of us has sailing experience besides the occasional day trip on a friends boat) but are willing for any boat.
Our ideal situation would be to work with an owner/captain to pay for the expenses and also be able to help in any capacity that we could (it would be great to learn some new skills) - obviously there are kids involved so that might be somewhat hard.
So where do I start? Any resource suggestions would be welcome. I'm not sure where to look online or how to going about making contacts. This place seemed like a good start.

Advice On A Injury
So yesterday, I pulled my oven out of its space and pushed it to the the living room cuz my new one got delivered 2day. I am not sure how it happened, but afterwards, the back of my arm into my back wuz hurting. By the time I went 2 bed, my upper arm wuz swollen and my fingers were tingly. It has been throbbing and I barely slept cuz of the pain. Any suggestions of wut I can put on it that might help relieve the pain.
Ouch, that sounds painful. I wonder if you busted a blood vessel to cause it to swell. If icing it doesn't fix it. I would head to the doctor to get it looked at.
Ice and a doctor's appointment... you could have done serious damage..
Ice and Ibuprofen. If it doesn't feel better see your doctor for an xray.

Is Microsoft/Nokia a sleeping giant or just sleeping?
I believe that's the story I linked to earlier in this thread. I can't emphasize enough that it is required reading before proceeding with further debates on the future of Microsoft. Seriously, if you haven't read it, go read it.
P.S. Did I mention you should read the story?
Thanks for the link, Roman. I took your advice from your earlier link and read it last night.
In my opinion, too many people think that Ballmer is the problem. I think Microsoft's problems are far more pervasive than that. I think that Microsoft's culture is the problem. Sure, Balmer has to go. But that's only the first step in a very long journey.
Very true. Ballmer may be the king, but there are other MS royals that need to go for its culture to change. The Old Guard could be hanging on to protect their legacy by rebuilding what it has lost. It has ceased being about money many millions and billions ago.
That article is not the first to draw the picture of current day Microsoft. I live in MS' backyard, and so I live among many MS employees, many of whom have been past and current friends. The rank and file are more attuned to the problems of its culture than its leadership. Understandably, the morale isn't what it should be, for reasons that go well past its moribund stock (and the lack of stock option-based compensation). A MS job has become job. Its employees have become a cog in a machine so large that it gets in its own way like government bureaucracy. The dearth of new, change-the-world things coming out of it feeds this perception. The Kin debacle, the late WinMo products (and still in catch-up mode), and the Zune funeral are convincing even the most faithful that something is not right in Redmond.
I had read the story when it was originally posted, but I was aware of it earlier. It was discussed on the MiniMicrosoft blog at http://minimsft.blogspot.com/. This blog reveals a high level of angst in the Microsoft technical community. It really is worth perusing. Apparently Steve Balmer has managed to get rid of most or all of the senior leadership that disagrees with him. The problem now isn't just him. The whole leadership has been crafted in his image. Too bad for MSFT, but good for Apple and Google.
I highly recommend the above link for those who might be inclined to dismiss the dysfunction inside new MS product initiatives. I remember reading it at the time of the Kin embarrassment and was mortified how such beginner mistakes could be made by a Company that has had so much success.
Thanks for the discussion, that I first read this morning.
On March 23 I purchased a small amount of NOK (@ 8.76) for the dividend yield portion of my portfolio. It is currently yielding 5.4%, pays a dividend once a year and the ex-div date is May 4.
My understanding is that you have to own it before then in order to receive the dividend, which is $.46 a share. I'm down about 1.9% so far. I plan to let it ride for the next year or so.

Too bad for MSFT, but good for Apple and Google.
Thanks for the Mini-Microsoft link. Now I actually remember coming across it 4 years ago or so… Just about the time I gave up on Microsoft completely. (Regarding the Fortune link, "read the story" was targeted at those who hadn't seen it, not at you of course)
Fal & Mercel -
True, if Ballmer went today, I still would be skeptical because other management would need to change. Besides, we'll never know how it would have fared under Gates, had he stayed on. (After all, such problems as DOJ lawsuit creating "scare" on overly monopolistic growth, as well as "lack of taste" as Jobs put it 15 years ago, would still be there).
But, just as I like to recognize great vision and leadership in the case of Steve Jobs and Apple, I would like to recognize the other Steve for MUCH of the destruction of value in Microsoft. As Tetra says, the engineers working on the ground really aren't to blame. I've been coming across this in organization behavior, power, and strategy classes, but leadership and management are different things, and poor leadership at the top is hardest to replace.
Remember, many of today's complaints about Microsoft's organization could be directly applied to the Apple of mid-90's. Jobs came back, and we have the renaissance… Of course, he didn't do it single-handedly, he picked Ive from a deep bench, brought Serlet with him from NeXT, then built a deep bench of execs such as Cook, and finally a great board of directors… But it starts at the top.
I can only imagine what happened with Jony Ives and Bertrand Serlets of this world at Microsoft over the past decade. They're probably all at Google, Apple, and Facebook now.
Meanwhile, a business school friend was interning in Seattle in the summer and heard Ballmer, and said he was very persuasive. I was shocked, as she's a smart cookie. So maybe it's true and he still is a great salesman. Too bad a salesman should never lead a company if all he listens to is his own voice.
Meanwhile, a business school friend was interning in Seattle in the summer and heard Ballmer, and said he was very persuasive. I was shocked, as she's a smart cookie. So maybe it's true and he still is a great salesman.
I've heard that Ballmer is very charismatic, very personable. John Gruber once talked about how Ballmer would probably be a great guy to hang out with. Unfortunately, such qualities don't necessarily translate into an ability to run one of the largest companies in the world.
We've all heard of the Peter Principle. The great salesman gets promoted and becomes a incompetent sales manager. An heroic Colonel makes a lousy General. And so on and so forth. Ballmer was probably a superb lieutenant, protecting Gates back as they both rose to the top. But as the head honcho, he's severely lacking.
I hate to be so trite in my analysis but in this case the popular answer and the blatantly obvious answer as to why Ballmer is failing appears to be the correct answer - The man simply has no vision. That, combined with the fact that no one has the guts or the brains to fire him plus the fact that he's purging Microsoft of the best and the brightest leaving behind only the sycophants and yes men bodes very poorly for Microsoft's future.
It's interesting that it was SJ who talked about the danger of putting the sales guy in charge. I wonder what he considers himself to be if not the sales guy?
I don't mind being wrong…,I just hate being wrong so FAST!
Ballmer occasionally goes to the local Starbucks I frequent. He DOES have enthusiasm, there is no question about that—you can see it in his body language (and obviously on YouTube).
I had drinks with a MS employee on Friday and he shared with me the fact that many, many MS employees are closet Apple customers. Funny.
The new tablets "are making a sea of Microsoft customers comfortable using an operating system different than Microsoft's," said Yoshikami. "You're going to see a migration away from the monopolistic dominance that Microsoft had, and that's worrisome for them."
Thanks for the discussion, that I first read this morning.
On March 23 I purchased a small amount of NOK (@ 8.76) for the dividend yield portion of my portfolio. It is currently yielding 5.4%, pays a dividend once a year and the ex-div date is May 4.
My understanding is that you have to own it before then in order to receive the dividend, which is $.46 a share. I'm down about 1.9% so far. I plan to let it ride for the next year or so.
My little NOK position is now green

The real question isn't really about Microsoft, but rather about Nokia and it's customer base. We in the "western" world have predominantly gone either iPhone or Android (and a few blackberry holdouts), but in Asia, South America and Africa, Nokia (Symbian OS) is the #1 player and both iPhone and Android are each struggling to go above 10% market share. There's a pretty nice web site ( http://gs.statcounter.com/#mobile_os-ww-monthly-200812-201104 ) that lets you look at mobile OS use by nation, continent, or even the whole world on a month by month basis for the last several years. According to the latest data from this site, Nokia has ~57% of the Asian, ~43% of the South American, and ~73% of the African markets. These three continents drive Nokia's world wide mobile OS market share to just over 30% (iOS is #2 at ~24% and Android is #3 at ~16%).
If Nokia can convince it's customer base in these three continents(especially Asia) to "stay on board" through their transition to "Windows Mobile", then yes, "Microsoft" will be in the #1 spot, but only because of the market share Nokia holds with it's current Symbian OS. If on the other hand, a large number of Nokia customers "jump ship" during the transition from Symbian OS to "Windows Mobile" (and choose iOS/Android instead), then the game is over for Nokia and Microsoft.
However, the data collected by statcounter has yet to show any signs of either iOS or Android seriously "taking off" in these three regions. It's for Nokia's ownership of these continents that Microsoft worked hard to win over Nokia.

The way it appears, Microsoft desperately needs to wed itself to a hardware partner and Nokia needs to survive.
The old Windows licensing model won't work in the handheld device market and Microsoft needs to acquire as much market share as possible from the start.

Apple by all accounts is selling every phone it can push out the door. It is physically impossible for anyone's numbers to "take off " in Asia in a two or three year span.
Apple's finance #'s on the other hand .........
jimlongo—to your point about MSFT/NOK and an ecosystem, that is indeed what they appear to be in the process of creating.
remember AAPL created the ecosystem in a fairly short time frame. so could MSFT.
johng—agree that there does appear to be some problems with the MSFT culture/leadership but i dont think its insurmountable.
treehouse and mercel—- i think the so called MSFT self destructure culture might be overblown, but even if it is as bad as they say, i believe it will not meaningfully impact their ability to ship in quantity.
mercel—you said: " Both companies have very mixed track records of building hardware that people want at a price that generates gross margin." i don't understand this statement. i don't know what you mean about their gross margin. didn't NOK build and ship hardware that people wanted right up until the day they were blindsided by apple's mid 2007 iphone apocolypse? didn't NOK's stock price reflect command a premium until then?
omacvi—your estimate of Mac OS marketshare of 25% in 10 years and 50% in 15 years are intriguing—sounds ambitious but i don't think it's out of the question. i wouldnt want to predict a timeframe. of course i'd also hate to be the target of virus / malware writers that comes with 50% marketshare.
roman - we see eye to eye on MSFTs tremendous R&D. so clearly they have the know-how. you make an excellent point that hp/palm, or rimm or htc, or samsung could be the victor given they strengthen their ties to GOOG. in fact, i think they each present interesting and unique investment opportunities on their own. HP seems to have already cast their bets with Palm OS but who knows even that isn't cast in stone. HTC- I haven't looked at the stock yet but i would think HTC is a strong case for investment, just like NOK. HTC was the contractor for many phones back in mid 2000. the HP iPAQ range, even the palm treo 750's were made by HTC. I had a HTC PPC in 2005, one of the first WM5 devices. I kept it for only a month or so. The battery life stunk and it was too heavy and windows mobile 2005 at the time was very poor, not so much tailored to the moible space as palm was. Samsung - to me is too diversified in TV's/panels etc that I am not convinced it is the best way to capitalize on the mobile space. You said: "I agree with Horace that the market is going to be a platform Oligopoly (rather than a Duopoly), and the space beyond iOS and Android is up for grabs. Microsoft is just one of the horses. Don?t bet on it to come out 1st." I agree with that. But, not betting on MSFT to come in first place is quite different from declaring MSFT down and out for the count. It is this down-and-out-for-the-count viewpoint that i am strongly disagreeing with. i really don't know whether they will be first, second or third. however my guess is MSFT will be first. in terms of market share.
JOHNG - you said: "What you are describing sounds like what happens after a ?tipping point? in consumer ?tastes?. i.e. in a post techie world people will migrate towards what?s simple and synergistic. This is the basis of Apple?s entire ecosystem. Having been a technologist for 35 years I crave simplicity. " Yes this is an excellent point, i 100% agree. It really does feel like a tipping point is coming. Omacvi said it above too. You hit the nail on the head. I believe Simplicity is the single word that truly somes up sjobs vision
BillH - funny, LOL no i dont work for MSFT. I guess i'm always evangalizing something. whether it is AAPL, MSFT, or GOOG. As far as your point about Nextstep, i'm not sure what it was. Yes i understand the roots of where OSX came from. My point was only that win95 was worse than its competition at the time, Mac os 7.5. That did not stop Windows from going on to be the dominant OS. It was good enough. I'm not sure what your point was about porting Win7 to ARM. Is that a pre-requisite for something? Whatever Win7 Mango runs on, it runs on.[ Edited: 30 April 2011 07:40 PM by steves ]
westech—good points in general, but why does MSFT/NOK need to make a great product which is at least as good as AAPL for WMC7 to succeed? MSFT is in it for the long haul. They can endlessly funnel money from their cash cows to their new unprofitable ventures like Xbox until xbox can stand on its own 2 feet. They are in the process of doing that now for bing.com. while you see bing.com as potentially a failure and certainly not a game changer, MSFT is taking the long view and slowing stealing from google, building up their ad business. whether NOK/MSFT can work together seems to be the big question i am hearing. I dont think this is an issue. Rather than risk a botched partnership, they installed a MSFT employee in as NOK's new CEO. I think its safe to say MSFT will be steering the direction of NOK now. I think you are correct that NOK does not have the expertise to design the whole OS and is looking for MSFT to do it. As for whether MSFT can take guidance from NOK…. I am sure that areas that natural lines of influence already exist, such as NOK's wide distribution channels and MSFT will likely defer to NOK on these issues, so long as the new NOK ex MSFT CEO signs off.
MSFT has has been playing a very slow game here, but their pieces are congealing. great link to the minimsft blog.
roman—ok - great article… It's likely the 5th or so highly negative article I've about the culture of in-fighting. Thus I am now more inclined to believe the truthfullness of these articles discussing deep cultural problem. And yes, I see Ballmer has made some tremendously bad decisions. I had never even heard of the Kin. A cell phone for teens w/o text messaging? Ridiculous. I agree with the VMWare exec. Split MSFT into autonomous divisions. I'd make Ballmer the head of the Enterprise division. Hire Bach back for gaming division…etc.
danthemason - interesting thoughts that the ipad competition never showed up, i like it
mercel - thanks for confirming the MSFT angst from the locals. Yes, your comparison to a government bureaucracy is fitting, it is what i was thinking reading about the cultural issues protecting legacy divisions.
roni - thanks for the heads up about the NOK dividend on May5. that gives me some motivation to buy prior. can one buy on may 4th, and sell on may 6th, and still receive all the dividend?
roman - well said about the Jony Ives and Bertrand Serlets of this world not being recognized at MSFT. Yes, MSFT is truly in need of a leadership change. I am fairly convinced Ballmer is not the right person for the job. Yes, he must be a great salesman, very persuasive. But that a visionary does not make. I've argued here, and still stand by, that MSFT does not need a visionary. They simply follow AAPLs way. But when the leadership is so poisioned it is another story entirely, then there is also a failure to execute. That failure to execute is what we have witnessed for the last few years.
falkirk - exactly. you said: "obvious answer as to why Ballmer is failing appears to be the correct answer - The man simply has no vision. That, combined with the fact that no one has the guts or the brains to fire him plus the fact that he?s purging Microsoft of the best and the brightest leaving behind only the sycophants and yes men bodes very poorly for Microsoft?s future." Its the second part thats the problem. Vision is not required, but get out of the way.
BillH - SJ considers himself to be the visionary, the artist, one of the Think Different poster people (ghandi, ali, picasso), somewhere who dares to see things differently. Not a "sales guy", he'd think its banal.
mercel - you said: " many, many MS employees are closet Apple customers. Funny. " - This isn't funny. it's scary (if you are an AAPL investor). It shows that the design and vision of AAPL will assimilate as usual into all MSFT products, and MSFT will eventually take over, regardless of in fighting. MSFT will eventually produce last years ipad.
greatgazoo192 - BINGO BINGO BINGO. The real question here is NOK not MSFT. You rightly brought up NOK's deep distribution channels. I forget which group…IDC, gartner, etc.. One of them predicted an astounding 100% conversion rate from Symbian to WMC7. That would be incredible. I dont think its that unlikely… at least 80% would keep NOK.
DT - really, MSFT just needs to buy NOK. But giving the MSFT infighting, it would just as likely destroy NOK. So I am happy with "billion dollar deal" flowing in both directions that they inked. I think the smartest play is on NOK however.
danthemason - appl selling out every phone made has no bearing on whether anyone else's phone could take off. the mobile market is in its infancy

CORAL GABLES, Fla. - The University of Miami men's tennis team travels to Gainesville, Fla., for a double-header against the University of Florida at Noon, followed by a match against Bethune-Cookman at 5 p.m. to open their 2013 spring season.
The Florida Gators, currently ranked 12th in the nation, are coming off the Three Oaks Shootout tournament where they posted a 7-2 record in doubles and a 15-6 record in singles.
Bethune-Cookman, who's first match of the season comes against the Hurricanes this weekend, look to start their season off on a postive note.
The strength of schedule this year is unlike any the Canes have seen recently, as all but one of their Atlantic Coast Conference matchups are against nationally ranked teams, including No. 1 ranked Virginia.
At home, the Hurricanes host nine top 75 ranked schools including No. 55 Rice, No. 64 North Florida and No. 70 Louisiana-Lafayette. On the road, they face in-state rivals No. 32 Florida State and No. 51 South Florida.
Finishing last season ranked 67th in the final ITA poll, the Hurricanes ascended in ranking by returning seven players, earning them a 65th ranking coming into the new season.
Looking to continue their successes from the fall, Victor Mauz and Henrique Tsukamoto, who combined for a 14-6 singles record, return, along with upperclassmen Omar Aly, Gabriel Flores, Diego Soto and Marco Stancati, giving the team great veteran leadership. Sophomore Wilfredo Gonzalez enters his second year with the Hurricanes. Jack Murphy and William Albanese round out the newcomers for UM this spring.
Entering his ninth year as the Canes coach, Mario Rincon looks to guide his team to new heights this season. In the 2011-2012 campaign, he led the Hurricanes to a ranking as high as No. 31, but looks to go further with the experienced spring roster.

Re: st: calling do files
Fri, 23 Jul 2010 10:40:03 +0200
Have you tried defining local macros in separate do files, include the
do files containing the macros in you main do file, and then use the
macros in the nlcom ? I guess it should work (not sure though - and
would be interested if someone has another solultion)
you can also create it with a loop, ex.
local s1="s1 = _b1[/b1]+"
forval i=2 to 100 {
local s1 `s1' "_b" `i' "[/b" `i' "]+"
and then use `s1' (and `s2', `s3',...) in the nlcom (and the same for s2)
That would considerably shorten your do file.
Hope this helps

Hi all,
I was trying to extract coefficients and their standard errors using the
nlcom command. But I am working with a big system so could not put all my
commands in a single do file due to size limit. Is there any way of doing
nlcom command for coefficients I can only put in two or more do files. In
other words, in one do file I have
nlcom (s1: (_b1[/b1]+_b2[/b2]+...))
and in another do file I have
(s2: (_a1[/a1]+_a2[/a2]))
I don't want to run two nlcom commands in separate do files, rather I want
to execute the command from the first do file somehow calling do file 2.

Modding fuel tank
I'm asking for advice here for my '83 El Camino that I have put a 1996 LT1 engine in.
I'd like to go to an in-tank fuel pump for the car.
Presently, I am running an external pump and have had reliability problems with it (burned out 2 already) and I'd like to quiet it down too.
I'd like to use both this fuel pump unit and sender assembly by Tanks, Inc. Both these are adjustable as far as depth.
However, my tank is odd in that it has a hump on top for the stock sender and fuel pickup. Here's what it looks like:
The Tanks, Inc. pump unit must be mounted flat and there isn't room to do that with that hump.
My thought was to cut that hump completely off the tank and weld in a flat piece of sheet metal in it's place. When it's open, I would have enough room to also tack weld in a tray into the bottom.
I've never modified a gas tank before. Is what I'm presenting here seem like a reasonable thing to do?
I've got a good Lincoln 110 volt Mig and am pretty good at welding sheet metal. What gauge sheet metal would I want to use? I do have some 18 gauge mild steel lying around I could use.
Advice will be appreciated.
I think you got the right idea. Putting a scavenging tray in it is a very good Idea to keep pump from starving or airlocking in heavy accel/low fuel levels.
I would solder the tray to the tank bottom as a weld will remove the plating that resists rust and with that gone and ethanol in the fuel :pain:
If you weld the top on that would be OK but I would think soldering would still be better.
Maybe the top could be formed with a "lap" seam all the way around to aid in soldering and to add strength. Just a thought.
You could also curve the mount piece for the pump so it stands flat on the gas tank bottom when installed into the tank canted top.
I'd rather weld.
Do you think a product like this could be trusted?
Auto Gas Tank Sealer Kit - Gas Tank Sealer - KBS Coatings
If not, then I think I will scrap this idea and look at some other alternative.
I've done all the welding on gas tanks that I want to do for this lifetime. What would I do? I'd find a gas tank in a boneyard that's in a vehicle that used the '96 LT1 motor and swap all the OEM stuff including tank, lines, pump and all into the '83.
Some guys have been successful putting an LT1 wagon tank in a '78 to '87 El Camino with some mods but it won't fit with my exhaust system.
The 1987 El Camino tank should fit the stock position. The 4.3 version had EFI pumps and trays in them. Maybe a salvage yard has one, or new ones arent that pricey.
El Camino Store: 1959-1987 El Camino Parts & Accessories 1-888-685-5987 - El Camino Parts has tanks for EFI el caminos in 85-87
Tanks are the same shape for 78-87 whether they are carbed or EFI
Only thing is both have a choice for either a 17 gallon or a 22 gallon size.They are both the same size externally.
Do some cross referencing at the el camino store, you'll see .:cool:
Spectra fuel systems sells tanks for less than the E C store. Available at advance auto parts.
It's the sending unit that's the problem to get an in-tank pump in it. The 4.3 sending unit has been discontinued for a number of years. Every once in while you see a NOS one but they are over $400 and then you've got to get a pump to fit that will provide enough fuel for the LT1.
Still, I think at this point, I'll get the new tank even if I stick with an external pump for the time being.
Maybe Tanks, Inc could modify a non-FI sending unit to accept a pump for me. I think I'll give them a call tomorrow.
I would bet Spectra also has the FI sender for that tank.
It's also not a perfect fit even without that. It's a poly tank too. They also have been discontinued. It would be hard to find in a wrecking yard in my neck of the woods. So, several reasons I don't want to go that route.
Every once in a while I've run across an NOS one. They are over $400.
It would be easier to mod a sender to fit then, rather than mod/build a tank.
I need to keep everything so it won't corrode.
My original idea was presuming that a coating like I provided a link to is a good reliable solution. I'd have the same issues if I used steel to mod a sender.
Dichromate plating or zinc plating isnt that hard from what I know about it. They would be a better solution than a "coating".
Even coating the welded areas with lead works well.
Modding a sending unit shouldnt be to hard, the captive O ring fittings would be the hardest part. Hydra crimp makes a crimp tool that forms them on bare 5/16 and 3/8 line but the tool is 400 bucks...even from tool topia.
I have used compression fittings that were hose barb on the opposite end on raw tubing ends, and shoved nylon fuel line on the barbed end to create a leakproof fuel line in the past.
Here in the rust belt, making brake lines and fuel lines is my favorite past time...:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::D: D

Underage Drinking In Breezy Point
Dear Editor,
The incident that occurred on May 5 at the Reyes family home is not the first and won't be the last arrest in Breezy Point for underage drinking.
I know of at least two incidents where parents were arrested for underage drinking in Breezy Point in the past. Of course, the details never made headlines due to the secrecy of the cooperative.
We live in a private community where adult and underage drinking are rampant. I know of parents who had to send their teenage children away to drug alcohol programs out-ofstate and a young teenage girl 17 years old who lives two blocks from the Reyes family has been in rehab for a year. These teens are becoming addicted to drugs and alcohol at a very young age. Underage drinking is also tolerated in the pubs in Breezy Point – The Blarney, The Sugar Bowl and the Bay House as well as Jameson's on Beach 129 Street.
Fake I.D.s are presented at all these establishments from Memorial Day to Labor Day. The Breezy Point Coop sweeps everything under the rug, looks the other way and does not want to publicly own up to the problems within the community. We wake up many mornings to beer cans and liquor bottles strewn all over the beach, deck furniture missing … used for beach parties. Summer homes are broken into explicitly for teenage drug and alcohol use. Of course, the problems are not discussed publicly, the family receives a fine and a warning and the parties continue.
The community needs a wake-up call and hopefully this was it. There have been several drug overdose deaths as well of teenagers whose parents reside in Breezy Point. When will these adults wake-up? How many teens must die before we realize we have a big problem on our hands? Also, a body washed up on Breezy shores about a month ago.
This was kept very quiet, the body was removed by the NYPD and we never heard a word about it. There was mention of a stalker following children on their way home. Again, no public statements made to the community by the Breezy Point Coop. It's time to speak up and become aware of what is happening in this community. If you see something, say something … you may save a life!
I must remain anonymous due to the harassment I would endure by the Coop if I signed this. NAME WITHHELD UPON EQUEST

today is my brofur Max and mine 8th birthday. I'm so happy to have another birthday. So far I've not gotten anymore cancer tumors. I am going to celebrate and get lots of lovings and treats today.
This last month my momcat noticed a bump on the top of my head. It grew quick so my momcat took me to the vet a couple weeks ago. Last Monday I had surgery to remove the bump and had my teethies cleaned. The biopsy revealed it was a Mast Cell Tumor and it is maligant. I had a Xray yesterday and the cancer has not spread. My prognosis is fair. Chances are it will return as we know how cancer is, but it may be a long time away. I sure hope it is a very long time. I could use some healing purrs I get my stitches removed this Thursday and can have this cone of shame removed.

Takeover Targets: Who Is First on the List?
Which companies are next in acquisition alley?
Below are seven biotech businesses that have been cited by analysts this year as among the most likely candidates for acquisition by larger biotech partners or pharma giants, mostly for what they have done right in recent years: successfully launching new products, building those products into successful franchises through multiple indications, and developing safe and effective new drugs, often in collaboration with larger partners.
For each company mentioned, this list furnishes descriptions of their biopharma focus, their key product(s) and pipeline, reasons why analysts found them attractive, and reference sources—which in one case included a recent GEN interview of an analyst who contributed to her firm's report on the topic in January.
Interestingly, if not surprisingly, six of the seven companies focus on cancer drug development, with eye disorders, inflammation, and myelofibrosis among other treatment specialties of the potential takeover targets.
Reflecting how fluid these analyses can be, one of the seven biotechs found itself just a few days ago as the subject of takeover speculation that led to news headlines, followed by no-comment statements from the company and its reported suitor.

|Performance with Multiple Node Vs Single Node
|Thu, 18 Feb 2010 15:36:50 GMT
Hi, What the impact on performance to have multiple node ?? The test we run here with multiple node seems a VERY bad performance comparing to the same amount of data located on 1 single node. Could you confirm or infirm such statement ? I mean if the same operation (write or read) take 5-10 times more time when multiple node than single node where is the problem (communication between computer) ??. I've read a lot about tuning of memory, disk, io, top, htop but nothing about networking operation between node. Is there any way to check what going on regarding node intercommunication ?? In my case all the queries made doesn't use 3% of the CPU nor the read operation a lot on the disk. Important I'm not talking about heavy load but on single query. Thanks
