Professional Communication
Bachelor of Science in Professional Communication
The Professional Communication degree, designed for working adults, is designed to enhance and expand communication competency in all areas of a person's life — self, home and workplace. The major integrates theory and applied learning, making it a marketable degree fitting for any organization or ministry. Those working in the field of communication enjoy the process of "talk," and how that translates into making money, fixing organizational issues or disseminating information.
The Professional Communication degree prepares graduates to work in the field of communication, encompassing every organizational body and entity in which someone would like to work. A communication office (information office) is apart of any thriving corporation or nonprofit. The skills learned in Evangel's Professional Communication major are directly reflectant of the skills stated in the Fortune 500 most desirable candidates for hire, those having oral and written communication skills, technological training, initiative with original, creative thought, along with other attributes. The degree itself is an integrated look at the theories of communication and how those theories correlate with the actuality of "doing" communication. The Professional Communication degree is a combination of writing, research, creating and performance. Professional Communication graduates are highly marketable. Graduates' skills are valued for their abilities to accomplish numerous tasks. The liberal arts training is a perfect fit for the needed flexibility of a communication expert. Evangel's Professional Communication program offers that integrated, yet diverse, training for tomorrow's workplace. Graduates pursue jobs in a variety of places. Currently, our graduates have acquired jobs in technical writing, promotions, public relations, advertising, digital media, nonprofits (such as running an orphanage), political campaigns, medical marketing and broadcasting. The Evangel ethos of relationship-building and the integration of faith and learning are at the core of this major. Graduates cherish their cohort time as they move through the program and are proud Evangel alumni upon graduation.
Each of Evangel's academic programs is made up of a set of core curriculum, program requirements and electives. The courses listed below are just a small sample of courses that might be taken as a part of this specific program.

Specific detail is given to current industry standard information and technologies. Learners will be introduced to electronic media skills that prepare them for course work in the program. |
Historical Media Perspective | Learners analyze traditional mass media from both an historical and a cultural perspective.

Careful consideration is given to clarifying the differences, but also the important interrelationships between advertising, public relations, and other parts of integrated marketing communication. |
Organizational Communication | Learners develop an awareness of group dynamics and the employment of small groups in the processes of information seeking and problem-solving. Emphasis is given to the theory and practice of communication in organizations, as well as practical application through the assessment and identification of communication problems in organizations. |
Communication Workshop | Learners demonstrate their learned communication skills through a comprehensive workshop experience, preparing portfolio work in print, promotions, electronic and digital media.

Vanessa Bayer has impersonated everyone from Miley Cyrus to Lady Gaga to Kourtney Kardashian on "Saturday Night Live." Does that make things awkward when the actual celebrity comes on the show? In the case of Miley, no. "She was great," Vanessa says. "If you're that famous and successful, you have to have a good sense of humor."
WATCH: Taran Killam: The Sexy Impression His Wife Finds Irresistible
Vanessa says Kerry Washington is a favorite guest host of the female cast members. "She's so nice, so funny, so down to earth," Vanessa says. "In my mind that whole week, I was like, 'How can I become best friends with her?'"
What celebrity was she most nervous to work with? Russell Brand. Vanessa admits the actor's wild reputation made her wonder how the episode was going to go, but "he was the nicest, easiest to work with," she says of the surprise. "He was wonderful."

"HBO scrubbed us down to nothing," Niecy says, as she was asked to take off her makeup, fake eyelashes, and beloved shapewear. "If you don't recognize me, here's a hint: I'm the black one."
WATCH: Comedian Remembers Bill Cosby's Best Advice
Niecy was also surprised when she found out that she had to go through a hospital boot camp to learn medical skills for the dark comedy, which follows doctors and nurses caring for aging patients. "Medical, elderly, hospice, all of these things prior to ever rolling tape," she says of the training. "You need me to give you a checkup? Cuz I can."
Before she achieved success as an actress, Niecy had a slew of failed jobs. "I worked at McDonald's for one day and was fired," she recalls. She also worked for an airline company and at a mall makeup counter, where she was brutally honest.
...Read More »You know Rutina Wesley as human-turned-vampire Tara on "True Blood," but the actress is trading in her fangs for a heavy new role in the off-Broadway show "One Night." She plays Alicia, a woman raped while serving in the military who now suffers from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
WATCH: Carrie Preston: "True Blood's" Behind the Scenes Ritual
Rutina calls the part "the most challenging role I've ever had" and hopes she can spread the word about an issue that's often swept under the rug. "It's happening to our servicemen and women, and a lot of people aren't talking about it," she says. "I felt like, as an actor, I should be able to help out by telling their story.">
With "True Blood" coming to a close after the upcoming final season, Rutina says the ending will be bittersweet. "I'm sad to see it go, but I'd rather see a show go out on a high note."

Despite the many wild scenes on the HBO series, Rutina says there's one Season 2 scene that sticks ou

The two ladies achieved reality TV fame with their over-the-top behavior, but now the pair say that they're in a new chapter and ready to leave their "Jersey Shore" days behind. "We're adults," Nicole says. "We're moving on to the next stage of our lives."
WATCH: Snooki's Trainer on the Key to Weight Loss
Since Nicole became a mom and lost over 60 pounds, her life has been starkly different from how it used to be. "I would wake up and just chug vodka," she says of her old habits. "It was like a party stage for me. Once I got pregnant, I was like, 'I don't want my baby swimming in vodka in there.'"
While the ladies don't regret anything they did during "Jersey Shore," Jenni says her big regret is something she didn't do: hit on Leonardo DiCaprio. She met the movie star one night, and, according to Nicole, "she got frozen."

WATCH: Easy Exercises to Do At Your Desk
"Your pelvis is designed to house your pelvic organs, like your bladder, your colon, and your uterus, and it likes to be in an environment where it doesn't have all of these pressures forced down on it," Jill explains. "So if you sit in a way that tips your pelvis back, or if you are constantly crossing and uncrossing your legs, you keep altering the pressures going into that pelvis."
What happens after altered pressure? "Leakage," Jill says, and other side effects you wouldn't traditionally think of, like bad breath, heartburn, and indigestion. "When you're putting weird pressures on your stomach, that can alter the sphincter that allows food to pass," she explains.

[QUOTE=max219]I've seen you mention in posts before, but what is your opinion on resting heart rates? Is higher better?

How these Firefox 3-compatible addons save me one hour per day
I'm on Firefox 3 too, and I utilize addons to enrich my web experience too, like most of you there.
There have been countless of entries to useful Firefox addons, but what's different about this post is that it measures the costs that can be saved for users when using these extensions.
What are the costs of usability and how much are they?
The descending order of severity of the costs are
- Screen loads: this is a pain when internet connection is slow. It usually takes most time of all interactions with the computer
- Mouse movements: mouse movements severely damage the wrist and this should be minimized
- Mouse clicks: mouse clicks are less severe than mouse movements, but are also expensive
- URLs: an URL takes time to type in
- Enters: it hurts the little finger
- Hot keys: hot keys usually consists of at least 2 keys, but are regarded as less expensive than Enters because they are mostly done with the left hand, reduces damage to the right hand
Now, let's start with the addons!
The first six in the batch: Google Toolbar, Diigo Toolbar, StumbleUpon Toolbar, TwitterFox, CustomizeGoogle, Better YouTube
Google Toolbar for Firefox
Google Toolbar provides search, "I'm feeling lucky" and images search functions without having to go to Google.com
It also supports Gmail notifications and Google PR check

Diigo Toolbar
I have used Diigo as a replacement of delicious (I still love the old brand del.icio.us)
Though delicious tagging is smarter and usability is better, Diigo supports web-highlighting which makes it an advantage.
Diigo toolbar allows user to bookmark their favorite web pages for later reference. With Diigo, all bookmarks are centralized when users move from computer to another.

StumbleUpon Toolbar
StumbleUpon works on an interesting concept: when you hit the Stumble! button, the addon takes you to a random interesting page that matches your preferences.
The StumbleUpon toolbar makes it more convenient for you.

This powerful addon modifies Google search results and display preferences. It supports options for Web Search, Images, Groups, News, Products, G Answers, G Books, Gmail, G Galendar, G Maps, G Docs, Video, Reader, Cache, Blogger, History, Privacy and Filter

Cost saved | This looks like it costs even more than the web version. However, the time to load the mini-screen is much less than it does to load the full web page |
Better YouTube
This Greasemonkey-based addon loads the YouTube video faster and allows downloading the video. Generally it saves me half an hour per day for one video.
With the intensity of these service I use everyday, these addons easily save at least one hour each day for me.
I can use this one hour for other business purposes which can generate other benefits.
What is your experience? What do you think of my approach when analyzing these?

Southern & Mediterranean Europe
Florence by Luxe
- Price: £4.99 Add to Basket
- A wonderfully camp list of the best shops, restaurants and hotels for the traveller looking for luxury.
Florence by Everyman MapGuides
- Price: £6.99 Add to Basket
- A handy, easy-to use guide if you are going on a short break or know the city relatively well, but as it is not particularly comprehensive, we wouldn't recommend this for a first-time visitor to Florence.
Florence and the Best of Tuscany by Rough Guides
- Price: £12.99 Add to Basket
- Comprehensive general guide for budget-conscious independent travel, balancing reliable practical detail with good contextual reading. Chapters on Pisa, Chainti, Siena and so on are just as good as those on Florence.
Florence & Tuscany Top 10 by Eyewitness Guides
- Price: £7.99 Add to Basket
- Whittles Florence and Tuscany down to their 10 best museums, beaches, gardens, restaurants in each area, hotels for every budget and so on. Includes an excellent pull-out map. Ideal for a short break.
Florence, Tuscany & Umbria by Frommer's
- Price: £14.99 Add to Basket
- Known for their informal American tone, Frommer's guides are often seen as an acquired taste. Yet they are virtually encyclopaedic in content and often great fun to use. This volume approaches Florence as the base of any trip but nonetheless covers the rest of the region in impressive detail.
Florence, Tuscany & Umbria by Fodor's
- Price: £12.99 Add to Basket
- Colourful general guide more concerned with comfort than budget travel, this dense compendium of practical information is laced with thoughtful appraisals of sights, restaurants, hotels and so on. Despite its position in the title, Florence gets scarecly more coverage than other local cities such as Siena.
Central Italy with Rome and Florence by Blue Guides
- Price: £20.00 Add to Basket
- A monumental cultural companion that covers all of Tuscany, Umbria and The Marche, as well as Rome and the wider Lazio region. Would best suit visitors with a keen interest in art and architecture who plan to cover a good deal of ground.
The Amalfi Coast Capri & Naples by Fodor
- Price: £17.99 Add to Basket
- An up-to-date comprehensive guide featuring a good range of accommodation and a selection of photographs. The writing is thoughtful and engaging. Basic city maps throughout.
Southern Italy by Blue Guides
- Price: £16.95 Add to Basket
- Blue Guides are unrivalled when it comes to art, architecture and culture. This well-researched and thoughtfully-written companion will enhance significantly your enjoyment of the region, illuminating as it does its many treasures.
Naples & the Amalfi Coast by Rough Guide
- Price: £12.99 Add to Basket
- A good, practical guide for the independent traveller on a budget.
Naples & Pompeii Pocket Map & Guide by Eyewitness
- Price: £4.99 Add to Basket
- An excellent, small guide with useful maps. The cities are divided into neighbourhoods with brief descriptions of the relevant sights. It includes a small section on Capri.
Naples & Amalfi Coast Top 10 by Eyewitness Guides
- Price: £6.99 Add to Basket
- Whittles Naples and its surrounds down to the 10 finest drives, delicacies, hotels for every budget, beaches and so on. A colourful pocket volume with excellent pull-out map.
Naples & the Amalfi Coast by Lonely Planet
- Price: £13.99 Add to Basket
- This is one of Lonely Planet's new regional guides, which feature a lot of red ink, a lot of maps and a lot of day-trip itineraries. Only 40 pages are dedicated to the Amalfi coast, and although there is the usual emphasis on smaller budgets this is more of a tourist guide than a travel guide.
Naples, Capri & the Amalfi Coast by Berlitz Pocket Guides
- Price: £4.99 Add to Basket
- Colourful and reliable pocket guide for a short stay, or to accompany resort-dwellers on their local sightseeing forays. Includes recommended restaurants and good small fold-out maps.
Naples by Time Out Guides
- Price: £12.99 Add to Basket
- Two thirds of the book is devoted to the city itself, highlighting the best sights, bars, restaurants and so on, giving a great flavour of the place. The remainder covers surrounding spots like Sorrento, Capri, Pompeii and the Amalfi Coast.
Bay of Naples & Southern Italy by Cadogan Guides
- Price: £14.99 Add to Basket
- Essentially a guide to all of Southern Italy which takes Naples as its primary focus, this is an excellent general companion to a comfortable tour of the region, blending practical tips with well-composed context offering a strong sense of place.
Sicily by Lonely Planet
- Price: £13.99 Add to Basket
- Exhaustive, upbeat, budget-minded practical travel guide. Maps are rather basic and presentation bland, but for quantity of information it cannot be faulted.
Sicily by Cadogan Guides
- Price: £14.99 Add to Basket
- Excellent mid-range guide that fuses great writing on local history and culture with enough practical detail to ensure a smooth exploration.
Walking in Sicily by Gillian Price
- Price: £12.00 Add to Basket
- Fantastic little book offering 46 routes of varying difficulty. Each is well mapped and annotated, with colour photographs throughout. Essential for a proper investigation of the island.
Sicily by Companion Guide
- Price: £16.99 Add to Basket
- An excellent cultural guide to Sicily with detailed information on art, architecture, history and food.
Sicily by Rough Guides
- Price: £13.99 Add to Basket
- Comprehensive travel companion with something for all budgets, though favouring as ever the simpler things in life. Local history and culture is combined neatly with practical detail, ensuring a solid all-round guide. Includes colour sections devoted to Sicilian festivals and cuisine.
Sicily by Blue Guides
- Price: £15.95 Add to Basket
- Substantial, in-depth and unrivalled coverage of the historical and cultural treasures of Sicily. The few food and drink recommendations favour traditional, well-established spots. Colour maps and photographs throughout.
Sicily by Michelin Green Guides
- Price: £14.99 Add to Basket
- After excellent introductory chapters there follows coverage of all major regions, arranged alphabetically rather than geographically. Sights, hotels, restuarants, and itineraries are all recommended and rated. Colourful and informative, perfect for a comfortable Sicilian tour.
Palermo CitySpots by Thomas Cook
- Price: £6.99 Add to Basket
- Colourful pocket guide perfectly suited to a short break, covering the essentials ably and directing you to the best sights, hotels, restaurants and so on.
Sardinia by Lonely Planet
- Price: £13.99 Add to Basket
- Exhaustive, upbeat, budget travel companion, keeping you entertained and cheaply-housed.

Mobile computers are extremely rugged data collection/processing devices specifically designed to reduce operating costs, eliminate paperwork, simplify daily tasks and maximize efficiency. Mobile computers began their lives as portable data terminals, or PDTs. In earlier forms, data collection was almost exclusively conducted within the four walls of an office. Today, with global technology advances such as WiFi (WLAN), Wireless Wide-Area Network (WWAN) and data connections via cellular providers, mobility has taken on new meaning. Now mobile computers are capable of performing a variety of tasks, are portable enough to wear on a belt and are efficient enough to provide a full day's use from a single charge.
L-Tron has strong partnerships with industry leaders such as Honeywell Scanning & Mobility, Motorola Symbol, Datalogic, General Dynamics, Patrol PC and Intermec. L-Tron also works with top independent software vendors to provide you with the right mobile computer hardware and software solutions.
Call the L-Tron technical sales team today to discuss your specific mobile-computing needs. Our professionals listen, working closely with you to identify your unique challenges and to customize the optimum solution for your application.

- 3 nightmare stocks from 2013
These miserable issues have left investors sleepless all year. Is the worst over?
- Analysts are tepid about Twitter
The stock surged in its first day of trading, but has slowed since.
For years, Todd Mills pushed Frito-Lay to make taco shells from Doritos. He died from a brain tumor on Thanksgiving.
Todd Mills, 41, never made any money from his multimillion-dollar idea, his wife, Ginger, told USA Today.
Instead, Mills was just happy to have his "cool idea" come true, Ginger told the paper.
Here are some of the numbers behind the effort, plus the current dynamics at 3 industry giants.
By Karen Riccio
Fast-food workers are going on strike Thursday for the second time this year with hopes that the likes of McDonald's (MCD), KFC, Taco Bell, Pizza Hut (YUM) and Wendy's (WEN) will raise their pay from an average $9 hourly to $15 an hour.
The united effort in 100 cities is indeed admirable but unlikely to spur changes in this thinly margined industry. The August version certainly didn't.
This isn't a matter of whether fast food workers deserve to be paid more, rather its whether the industry at large would or could survive paying employees $15/hour. And, if companies were forced to do so, what would the impact be on jobs and food prices?

People snapped up 600,000 of the iconic cars a year in the 1960s, but fewer than 72,000 have been delivered in 2013. A new version debuts Thursday.
Here's a bit of startling news, especially if you're a Baby Boomer: the Ford (F) Mustang turns 50 next year.
Ford is launching a full-court press campaign for its iconic pony car starting on Thursday, when the new, sixth-generation Mustang is unveiled on ABC's "Good Morning America" program.
There are currently more than 600 Mustang owner clubs around the world -- and as part of the anniversary Ford is inviting people to talk about the car on Facebook (FB) and other social media platforms.
"Everybody has a Mustang story," Jim Farley, executive vice president of Ford global marketing, sales and service and Lincoln, noted in a press statement, "and the emergence of social media has helped the Mustang community share and connect these personal moments in not just words, but photography and video."
There's more than the taste of Coke or Pepsi to consider when deciding which brand is the better investment.
The debate has raged for decades now about which is the better tasting cola – Coke or Pepsi.
Pepsi even created an advertising campaign out of it during the 1980s, known as the Pepsi Challenge. But while the argument about which soft drink tastes better will probably never be settled, there may be some agreement about which company has the better stock value.
Forget the gloom-and-doomers. Here's what will drive the ascent in the new year.
By Jamie Dlugosch
It has been a glorious time for investors, at least those that believed in the market.
I'll admit to having some skepticism heading into 2013. When I offered my Top Stocks to Own in 2013, it was on the heels of my 2012 picks generating 40% for the year. I have enough respect for the market to know how difficult it would be to repeat that performance. So, I hedged by suggesting that I would do only half as well in 2013.
Now, 11 months later, that list of 10 stocks for 2013 stands at an aggregate gain of 57%. It's enough to make your head spin. More importantly, one can rightly question if such good fortune can continue.
If I was hedging my bets in 2013, I will surely hedge my bets for 2014, right? Not so fast. The animal spirits are stirring and one can easily conjure a scenario for more gains ahead.
People are drinking more of it -- and they're buying the fancy stuff, too. Here are some ways to cash in on the trend.
Yeah, the holidays. The wonderful time of the year when we force ourselves to have conversations with family and artificially act like we care. Other than hearing the occasional entertaining tale about a cousin sleeping with his secretary, most stories are a dud.
But, thank God we have booze to get through it!
Alcohol aficionados like to point out the celebratory mood of many as being the reason for a pop in consumption as we close out the year; and that may very well be. But one thing is for certain: Regardless of the reasons, people love to drink during the holidays, and wine seems to be the beverage of choice.
For example, in the weeks leading up to Christmas last year, wine sales increased by 67 percent. But for wines priced between $15 and $20, wine sales more than doubled. And, for the fine quality bottles priced greater than $20, sales nearly tripled.
Shareholders roar with approval as an activist fund calls for Michael Jeffries' ouster, sending the stock up.
By Kyle Woodley
"Off with his head!" So proclaimed activist fund Engaged Capital on Tuesday, asking for the ouster of Abercrombie & Fitch (ANF) CEO Michael Jeffries.
Investors roared with approval, sending the stock 6% higher in hopes of something that might turn around the struggling retailer. The stock was unchanged Wednesday.
If you already hold Abercrombie shares, you likely agree with the sentiment.
Michael Jeffries, who took over in 1988 to put a spark into Abercrombie & Fitch, has led the teen-focused retailer on a roller-coaster ride ever since ANF hit the markets in September 1996. Abercrombie, which priced at $16, reached as high as $84 and change during its pre-crisis heyday.
If you want to invest long-term in J.C. Penney, just make sure you understand what you're buying.
By Rocco Pendola
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- While everybody else was tied up fangirling over J.C. Penney's (JCP) increase in comparable store sales, TheDeal's Richard Collings was busy providing much-needed context via Twitter. "$JCP Q4 sales last year dropped by 28.4% from $5.43 billion to $3.88 billion, and comps were down 31.7%. November comps up 10.1%."
For JCP management to put out an announcement that basically says -- "We don't suck quite as bad as we did when we hit rock bottom" -- was, in and of itself, absurd. But the way the company colored its press release further illustrates why long-term investors should read nothing into this so-called news:

Disappointing earnings from Express highlight the uncertainty currently surrounding the retail sector.
Express (EXPR)? Say it ain't so. This terrific chain of 630 stores has delivered and delivered and delivered. It sure didn't deliver Wednesday, and the company was abject when Michael Weiss, one of the best merchants out there, said, "Results did not meet our expectations."
Shares of the company plunged more than 23% as a result.
This one's shocking. I have come to think of Express as that terrific mid-range player with the best duds for younger professionals. The company is right when it claims itself to be the "premier fashion authority for our demographic." Express is too good for me to be thinking that it screwed up this badly. To me it says the demographic isn't spending.
This report is a remarkable affirmation of just how impossible retail is to invest in right now. As consistent as Express has been of late, Ascena (ASNA) has been inconsistent. The umbrella company for Dress Barn, Maurices and Justice had been like the old chain of woman retail fashion, Hit or Miss, especially since it bought Charming Shoppes not that long ago.

The donut maker's third-quarter results were decent, but guidance has investors running for the exits. The stock fell 20% Tuesday.
The market absolutely battered the donut maker after it reported third-quarter earnings late Monday. Krispy Kreme saw a scrumptious 34% jump in profit, as well as a more modest increase in revenue. So why'd the stock dive 20% Tuesday?

The company isn't saying, but the acquisition could be helpful with advertising, iTunes and maybe even Siri.
By Tim Parker
According to The Wall Street Journal, Apple (AAPL) recently acquired social search company Topsy Labs for at least $200 million.
Never heard of Topsy? If you're looking to analyze all of the Twitter data since 2006, Topsy is (or was) your company of choice.
You could figure out how often a term is tweeted, measure the reach of an ad campaign, track down new and powerful hashtags or find an expert on a specific subject. Topsy is one of those companies in the business of big data. With more than 500 million tweets daily, there is a wealth of insightful data within the vast sea of tweets but without companies like Topsy, it was difficult to work with all of it.
Topsy was one of the few companies that had access to the now-called "fire hose" -- all of the Twitter data since 2006.
Shares are up nearly 30% this year, fueled by impressive organic growth, cost-cutting initiatives and strong capital deployment.
By Zacks Equity Research
Shares of Wells Fargo & Company (WFC) have recorded a year-to-date return of 29.8%.
Impressive organic growth, expense reduction initiatives and strong capital deployment activities of the company acted as the positives behind this growth story. However, we are not very optimistic about these positives translating to further price appreciation down the road as there will be significant pressure on its top line.
After analyzing its fundamentals following third-quarter 2013 earnings release, we would suggest to stay invested in it but not to further add it to your portfolio.
The company's messaging system will be pre-loaded on devices from other manufacturers, according to reports.
BlackBerry's (BBRY) new strategy includes a venture with numerous Android smartphone manufacturers.
Instead of trying to sell its most popular features to consumers through the sale of BB10-specific handsets, the company will soon pre-load its messaging application on other manufacturers' products.
According to AllThingsD, this key feature from BlackBerry's ill-fated OS will soon appear on Android phones from Micromax, Celkon, Zen, Mito and Nexian, among others.
Investors may not recognize those manufacturers. They may also wonder why Samsung, the world's largest producer of Android smartphones, is not on the list.
The industrials were sliding lower Tuesday and lost their 20-day moving average for the first time since September.
Well, that didn't last long.
After inching above the 16,000 level two weeks ago to great fanfare, the Dow Jones industrials ($INDU) were sliding lower Tuesday as they lost their 20-day moving average for the first time since September.
Technically, this isn't all that unexpected. Last week featured multiple "hammer" candlestick patterns -- indicated by intra-day rallies that were reversed into the closing bell -- that are representative of buying exhaustion. Breadth also has been disappointing, with the percentage of NYSE stocks above their 50-day moving average at just 60% now versus 85% in October.
So the Dow Jones' push above 16,000 was on relatively narrow support that is petering out quickly.

The largest wireless carrier in the world is finally moving to sell the device, according to reports.
DeWitt has a screengrab of an iPhone pre-order site from a China Mobile subsidiary which is in Suzhou, a city west of Shanghai. The site has since been taking down.
DeWitt says Suzhou is a good place for an iPhone launch because it has 5 million people, and it's one of the richest cities in China. Therefore its people will be able to afford iPhones.
China Mobile is very important for Apple's (AAPL) iPhone business. It has about 700 million subscribers. Selling iPhones to that new customer base should result in a nice pop in iPhone sales.

[BRIEFING.COM] There wasn't a lot of excitement in the stock market today and there is nothing wrong with that. After rallying in broad-based fashion on Friday, the major indices stood their ground (for the most part) amid a lack of conviction from buyers and sellers alike.
Today wasn't a case so much of the stock market going up as it was a case of some influential stocks going up to keep the major indices on a winning path. In fact, decliners were just about even with ... More
