Our annual ode to cool drinks, hot spots and general booze-fueled debauchery
photo: Sean Michael Hower
October 21, 2010 | 09:15 AM
There is something visceral, timeless and uniquely human about gathering in a dimly lit room to socialize, commiserate and imbibe. We don't all drink, but we all understand the shared experience that is the neighborhood pub; through good times and bad, it embraces us without judgement, welcomes us without expectation and, yes, kicks us to the curb after last call.
Mai tai-centric tourist havens are what make Maui famous, but the Valley Isle boasts a wide array of watering holes—seedy dives, swanky establishments, lively sports bars. This annual issue is an ode to them all, to the servers and bartenders who toil in them, to the libations they offer and, most of all, to the weary souls who gather there.
Bottoms up.
Fun & Games
Bar diversions have a storied history, and Maui has some great places to partake
by Anu Yagi
Bulwarks like billiards, darts and table shuffleboard may be cardinal to the bar landscape—but at face value, pub games are counterintuitive. Drunks wielding domesticated weapons in the lust of competition? Genius.
Really, though, it is genius, in that these diversions can turn a passerby into a patron, a buyer into a barfly.
The history of how these frivolous tests of skill became immemorially linked to our houses of inebriation is both convoluted and contested. One thing is for sure—no matter what your game of choice, booze has a way of bringing out our sporting nature.
Let's explore a little of the history and how-to behind these games—and which Valley Isle hubs offer playing fields and peeps to play with.
Cue sports were born of lawn games like the English's croquet and the Italians' bocce, brought indoors while players weathered winters. There are dozens—nay, hundreds—of ways to play with these balls, but for our local-centric purposes, I'll touch on a pocket billiards game variation called "Honolulu." The general rules of pocket billiards apply, but according to Billiards, the official rules and records book edited by the Billiards Congress of America, Honolulu is "a unique and fascinating [game] that confronts the player with an unending kaleidoscope of strategic and shot-making challenges. Essentially [a] game of one-rack call-shot... the critical difference being absolutely no 'straight-in' shots are allowed," meaning that every legally pocketed shot must be achieved in an indirect fashion (i.e. banks, combinations, kisses, etc.).
The game of darts is said to have originated as a version of close-quarters archery, says preeminent dart historian Patrick Chaplin, Ph.D. Other historians add that it began with soldiers tossing arrows (a synonym for darts to this day) into upturned tree stumps or barrel bottoms, the natural cracks and crevasses lending to the standard dartboard's twenty, pie slice-shaped divisions (each with two "single sectors," that earn a "sector score"—or number associated with the area—plus one "double area" and one "treble area" sliver, which earn multiples of the sector score).
According to the World Darts Federation, when situating a dart board, a plumb line from the center of the bullseye to the floor should measure 5' 8", with the throwing line (known as "ochie," pronounced "okkey" in dart speak), being at least 2' wide and positioned at a distance of 7' 9.25" from the outermost edge of the dart board. These specifics are often adjusted to fit a venue's layout, but regardless of the setup and house rules, the federation says that most importantly, "a game of darts always starts, and ends, with a handshake."
Table shuffleboard is played with pucks in hand, whereas deck shuffleboard is played with cues manipulating the pucks. Silicone beads, sometimes referred to as "shuffleboard cheese," are spread atop the table to reduce friction. Scoring can be tracked on large abacus-like beads mounted at the sides of the table, with players or teams of players taking turns shoving pucks down the length of a table, toward scoring sections that denote possible points. However, players can thwart an opponent's progress by choosing to knock their pucks out of scoring-range or out of play into what's called the "gutter" or "alley." Though stringent rules exist in multifarious forms through various organizations, it's generally a relatively informal game; the number of points you play to—usually 21—and the exactness with which the points are achieved are up to you.
On the South side, Diamonds Ice Bar (1279 S. Kihei Rd.; 879-9299) is home to a sampling of each of our featured pub games, with the owners going so far as to seek out a sleek shuffleboard table from makers in California. Pool is priced at a buck a game, and inspires impromptu tournaments among die-hard players. Darts and shuffleboard are free to play—just ask your bartender for the Tupperware container of pucks or wooden box of steel-tipped house darts. Their sister location, Dog & Duck Irish Pub (1913 S. Kihei Rd.; 875-9669) is a darts hub, too. Plus, regulars there are often seen playing checkers or cards out back. Meanwhile, friendly hubs like Kahale's Beach Club (36 Keala Place; 875-7711) and Mulligan's on the Blue (100 Kaukahi St.; 874-1131) will happily let you bring along cards or boardgames, if that's your sort of thing.
Central Maui is home to a few notable places to rack 'em up. Sports bars like the Kahului Ale House (355 E. Kaahumanu Ave.; 877-9001) and Green Leaf (1088 Lower Main St.; 244-4888) are a good go-to, with the Ale House offering free pool on Wednesdays (regularly $1.50 a game), and Green Leaf hosting pool tournaments on Tuesdays. Take a cue from the regulars at Tiffany's (1424 Lower Main St.; 249-0052), who drop Pidgin while showcasing some mean English.
West-side billiard-lovers have Lulu's Lahaina Surf Club and Grill (Lahaina Cannery Mall; 661-0808) and Sly Mongoose (1036 Limahana Pl.; 661-8097) to choose from, and Upcountry/North-shore folk are bound to Charley's Restaurant & Saloon (142 Hana Hwy.; 579-9453). Also, I'd be remiss to not mention appropriate-for-all-ages arcade games—the best locale for which can be found upstairs at the Wharf Cinema Center's Cool Cat Cafe (658 Front Street; 667-0908).
Raising Spirits
Local distillery embraces sustainability and time-honored methods and, oh yeah, makes a damn good rum
by Jen Russo
The first thing that hits you at the distillery is the aroma. I happened to drop in when the fermenting molasses was emitting a swarming sweet and heady smell, but Haleakala Distillers manager Brian Sato assured me that there are also some not-so-pleasant smells that come from the small-pot distillery.
Jim and Leslie Sargent started Haleakala Distillers seven years ago, and in that time their products have increased in both popularity and availability, gracing bars and retail outlets islandwide. I talked with Jim to the get the low-down on local rum production.
When did you start making rum?
We started the distillery in 2003 but didn't sell anything to the pubic until 2004. Though I had worked for Gallo many years ago, the bulk of my distillation knowledge has been acquired through self-study and experimentation.
What does Haleakala Distillers do?
Haleakala Distillers is a small, family-owned craft distillery [and] the first Hawaiian distillery of any kind since the 1970s or so. We had no base of expertise and no local inventory of equipment to draw on. We've always endeavored to produce a true Maui craft product in small volumes. We've won eight medals over the last four years.
What was your first rum?
A Braddah Kimo's 80-proof gold rum. It's no longer in production, but was succeeded by the similar, more refined Maui Gold Rum.
What rums are you making now and what are the flavor profiles in each of your rums?
Our Maui Dark Rum offers hints of dark chocolate, coffee, nuts and cherries, although none of these are ingredients. It is the darkest rum available and makes the perfect float on top of a true Maui mai tai. Maui Gold Rum reminds many people of toffee or butterscotch. It has most of the dark flavor profile, but [it's] much more subtle. It's a popular sipping rum. Maui Platinum Rum is a mixing rum, with very little flavor of its own, specifically finished to allow the fruit flavors in a mixed drink to shine. Most folks tasting it can get a sense of vanilla and a sweet background note. Braddah Kimo's Extreme 155 Proof Rum is also recognized for a nice clean, sweet vanilla note. Maui Reserve Gold Rum is similar to un-aged Maui Gold Rum, but with more oak tones and subtle hints of spice and a rounder, more sophisticated palate, due to the time in the oak. Our Maui Okolehao Liqueur tastes like nothing else in captivity because it's made from East Maui ti roots, which have many subtle and unusual flavors. Some people have told us it reminds them of Amaretto, others of a very sweet spiced rum, but without the rum burn.
What makes Maui rum special?
Our rums are special because they are: true handcrafted Maui products; produced in such small quantities that they are some of the rarest spirits on earth; the most-awarded spirits in the Pacific Basin; and unavailable on most of the U.S. Mainland and in no other country.
Why is so much rum produced in the tropics?
Rum is actually made everywhere there is either sugarcane or molasses available to ferment. The Hawaiian Islands became a rum production area as soon as sugar began to be planted in the 1800s.
How hard is it to distill rum?
Rum is the most complex spirit to make. There are over 600 congeners [flavor elements] which we must work with to balance out into a well-tempered, drinkable rum. The most expensive wines and scotches have a quarter and half as many congeners, respectively, making rum a far greater challenge to perfect as there are many more things which can go wrong. Here on Maui we have the freshest molasses to use, of very high quality, which gives us an advantage over virtually every other distillery.
Where can we get Maui rum?
Our products are available on every inhabited Hawaiian Island except for Niihau. Lots of visitors buy here and take back in their checked luggage, as this is totally acceptable to the airlines and airport security. You can get the product at a few retailers in California, but they are often out of stock and must charge higher prices to cover the transportation. Internet sales are conducted by only one retailer, hitimewine.net, to about 40 states. We've received e-mails from fans in over 50 countries wanting to know when the product will be available locally to them. You can find a list of locations at haleakaladistillers.com.
Talk about your bottle recycling program.
The bottle recycling program is unique in the U.S. as far as we can tell. We're not recycling the glass material but reusing the entire bottle. This saves energy and makes Maui way less dependent on imports. It also helps some of our customers reduce their disposal bills, as they have to pay to get rid of competitors' empty bottles, whereas we pay them to take away ours. When the bottles come back to the distillery they go through a rigorous wash in a hospital-grade bottle washer, which leaves them cleaner than new bottles would be when they arrive. We got the idea from visiting Jamaica years ago, watching the locals reuse their own bottles by taking them from home to the distillery or to a bar, where the bottle could be refilled with their choice of spirit again and again. I had seen in historical photos and bottle collections on Maui that the old Haleakala Dairy premises, where we now have the distillery, used to deliver milk in returnable bottles, so I was inspired to bring back a time-honored custom once I realized how much ocean freight penalized us on incoming glass shipments. We bounced the idea off of a couple of large customers, like the Four Seasons Lanai and the Westin Maui, and they were very supportive of bottle reuse. It requires a minor amount of effort on their part, but they save money every time.
What does the future hold for Haleakala Distillers?
We hope that our future holds more of the same—making award-winning rums, helping Maui become a more sustainable destination and providing rewarding employment for the talented folks living on Maui.
Pub Fiction
by Jacob Shafer
Every good bartender (and Maui is blessed with more than its share) understands the job is equal parts mixology and psychology, with a dash of stand-up comedy and a twist of hard-earned wisdom.
Here are five fictional drink-slingers who combine at least some of those qualities, and whose bars we wouldn't mind bellying up to.
Moe Szyslak (The Simpsons) - From his unrequited love for Marge to his stint as a semi-professional boxer to his brush with fame via the "Flaming Moe," the proprietor of Homer's favorite watering hole is nothing if not memorable. Sure, he occasionally takes advantage of his loyal, beer-soaked regulars, and has threatened prank-calling Bart with all manner of unspeakable torture, but we'd let him pour us a Duff any time.
Woody Boyd (Cheers) - Ex-jock Sam Mallone gets all the girls, but Woody's wide-eyed farm boy was the real heart and soul of the eponymous Boston bar where everybody knows your name. Viewed through the prism of Harrelson's eclectic post-Cheers career, the character only gets better.
Lloyd (The Shining) - Memorably creepy minor characters are a dime a dozen in film and TV, but to stand out in Stanley Kubrick's wall-to-wall creep fest is no small feat. Yet Lloyd the bartender pulls it off. So much so, in fact, that 30 years later he has a Facebook fan page dedicated to him. Sample post: "I surveyed 100 women and asked them what shampoo they used when showering. 98 of them said, 'How did you get in here?"
Stephanie (Sideways) - An up-for-anything, tough-as-nails wine pourer in the heart of the Napa Valley who also happens to look like Sandra Oh? We'll take the whole bottle, please.
Wuher (Star Wars) - We're willing to overlook his surly demeanor and anti-droid bigotry (which, according to Wookieepedia, stemmed from the fact that "they took up space in the cantina and did not require refreshment") because of how nonchalant he was about having not one, but two aliens' guts splattered across his bar in the span of less than 20 minutes.
Dos and Don'ts
How to order...and not to order
by Jen Russo
As mixology gets more complicated, the wine lists get longer and craft beers go on tap, drinkers are blessed with an embarrassment of riches. Making an educated stab at what you want to order can be complex, and you don't want to sound like the duff fresh of the teetotaler train. To avoid that, here's your guide to being (or at least appearing) bar smart.
Don't: "I'll have a beer."
Do: "I'll have a Bikini Blonde on draft" or "I'll have a Bud Light in a bottle."
Specifics make the difference. Don't make your server coax it out of you. A draft beer comes from the tab, a bottle will be, well, a bottle. Domestic beer is American, import means it's of foreign origin.
Don't: "I don't know what I want."
Do: "Can you recommend something? I like tequila and citrus" or "What is your house white wine?"
It's OK to not know what you want—but you entered the bar. Be prepared to figure it out. Asking for recommendations is a good place to start. If you want a specific cocktail and you're not sure if they make it, just ask.
Don't: Say, "I'll have a lilikoi martini" and wait 'til it's in front of you to order the next drink for your compadre.
Do: Say, "I'll have a Sazerac, an Old Fashioned and Scotch on the rocks"
String your drink order together to save your bartender a headache. Don't worry—he or she can handle it.
Don't: "I'll have a vodka and soda with lime" when you want a specific vodka.
Do: "Corzo and grapefruit with lime."
Proper etiquette calls for the liquor first. Be specific if you're expecting a certain kind of alcohol. Well drinks and premium drinks have different brands in them. If you're not sure, ask to avoid misunderstanding.
Don't: Attempt to act sober when you're not.
Do: Ask a bartender to call you a cab.
Our service industry bar professionals can sniff out the drunk folks without olfactory glands. Over-service at a bar is a serious offense for Maui liquor license holding establishments. These folks have been trained and they deal with liquor consuming individuals day in and day out. Don't play them.
Don't: Be a drink dummy.
Do: Do your homework.
Cocktails and mixology are growing, allowing your palate an opportunity to get beyond that old rum and Coke and jager shot. Get a book, peruse recipes, figure out flavors you like. Find a liquor store that offers small bottles so you can taste something without a big commitment.
Some good words to use—and understand
Dry: When you order a dry martini, it means it'll have dry vermouth.
Frozen: A drink blended with ice.
Neat: Liquor with no ice, served in an Old Fashioned glass.
Rocks: Served on ice.
Up: Liquor chilled and strained into a martini glass.
With salt: A glass rimmed with salt.
In Search of the Perfect Daiquiri...
by Jen Russo
Recently, I've gained a newfound affinity for rum. So, on a recent trip to California, I headed straight for Hollywood's La Descarga to seek out their infamous daiquiri, created by Pablo Moix. Moix is a New York transplant who brings a keen sensibility to the mixology scene, developing beverage programs that are appealing, fiscally attentive and on trend. This drink has its roots in Cuba via Havana's El Floridita Bar and bartender Constantino Ribalaigua Vert. It is said Hemingway was a fan.
Daiquiri is a perfect menage a tois between rum, lime and sugar. What it is not is the blended abominations of sour mix and rum served at tourist bars here on Maui—sorry! Experimenting obsessively with the classic daiquiri recipe in my home bar, I've been tinkering with the types of rum, kinds of sugar and home-grown limes. What I loved about La Descarga's version was the cross section of lime garnish that floats on top of the drink. Next tip is to shake it hard and fast until frothy. As you sip the drink from the coupe, the lime naturally gravitates to the sipping point, and you seem to always be pulling the drink through and with the citrus. Simply fantastic.
Try this:
2 oz. gold rum
1 oz. fresh-squeezed lime
2 teaspoons baker's sugar
Fill cocktail shaker with ice; smaller pieces are better to get a really good chill and froth. Add rum, lime and sugar. Shake well. Strain into chilled coupes

In order to raise money for the American Heart Association, several male faculty members at Eugene Field Elementary School agreed to make something up for their students — themselves.
Jars for each of the men were set out so that students could fill them with spare change. The faculty member associated with the jar containing the most money was to wear red lipstick for a day.
Assistant Principal Brian Lynn "won," but the other contestants, Joe Masciovecchio, Joe Suchan and Mike Nolde, volunteered to wear lipstick as well.
The contest, which began last week as part of a district-wide fundraising effort by R-II schools, raised $117 for the Heart Association.
Another AHA event, a "Red Out," is planned for Maryville High School on Friday.

Groth Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon 2008
Groth, a classic Napa Valley estate with core vineyards in Oakville, is known for its commitment to producing the highest quality Cabernet Sauvignons. In special years the winery will make a Reserve bottling of Cabernet from a small lot in their 121 acre Oakville Estate. This limited production Reserve is a favorite of die-hard Cabernet fans and is consistently rated in the 90s year after year.
Tasting Notes:
A huge Cabernet, in the best sense of the word. It wasn't the easiest vintage, as 2007 was, but meticulous winemaking did the job, resulting in this amazingly rich, impressively ripe wine that's drinkable now and will develop for many years. The fruits veer toward blackberries, cherries and cola, and the tannins are soft and refined. One hundred percent new French oak isn't at all heavy, lending nuances of buttered toast and sweet wood tannins. Will easily age for 15 years. Cellar Selection.
100% Cabernet Sauvignon
Drink now through 2028.

Beach Co. in Charleston reversing its anti-flag position
The Beach Co. appears ready to change its stance on letting the U.S. and POW/MIA flags fly outside a downtown Charleston bar.
Company officials issued a news release saying they were apologizing for the misunderstanding pertaining to the display of flags at our property.
The note came in reference to its decision last month ordering the Chucktown Tavern to remove the two banners from flag poles outside its Market Street business, so that the companys all-green banners could go back up.
The Post and Courier broke the story of the flag removal last week. Afterward, numerous calls and emails of support came in for the downtown tavern by readers calling the flag display a symbol of patriotism.
The Beach Co. note said that as of now, the company only has approval from the city of Charleston to fly solid green and red banners at the location. But because of the controversy, the company said it will expedite a formal application to the citys Board of Architectural Review to allow other flags to be displayed.
Furthermore, it has been brought to our attention that a South Carolina law was passed in 2002 to allow the American flag to fly regardless of existing zoning laws, the message also said. This being the case, an American flag will be raised and flown on each flag pole next week.
Tavern owner Marty Young said Saturday the change of heart by the company is good news. Were real excited about the whole thing.
The hope is that a flag-raising ceremony coincides with the return of the patriotic banners, Young added.
The companys note closed by saying : Finally, and most importantly, we have the utmost respect and honor for our country and its veterans or those military personnel taken as prisoners of war (POWs) or listed as missing in action (MIAs). We are proud Americans who salute our armed forces heroes.

Lang Lang: 'We need to take responsibility to inspire kids'
He is a prodigy, of that there is no doubt. But it is Lang Lang's zeal for his craft, not simply his talent, that has rendered him a musician of exceptional calibre.
On Saturday, the 30 year-old pianist from the industrial city of Shenyang in northeast China will be the headline act at the National Arts Centre's annual gala. A day earlier, he held a master class with young musicians in Ottawa – part of his ongoing mission to foster the same driving enthusiasm for the classics that has motivated him since he was a toddler.

Chinese pianist Lang Lang gives orchestra a star turn
Yannick Nézet-S éguin, the Philadelphia Orchestra's music director designate, captured the hearts of the huge crowd Wednesday night in a memorable evening of music making that included the formidable talents of Chinese pianist Lang Lang.
Nézet-S éguin, who was making his Saratoga Performing Arts Center debut, doesn't stand on ceremony. Rather, he seems almost like one of the guys up there on the stage with a relaxed and comfortable air. But as concertmaster David Kim told the audience prior to the performance, every concert with him on the podium was meaningful and a treat.

Two pianists took the keyboard on Saturday night. Sitting side by side at a massive Steinway, Christoph Eschenbach, the new music director of the National Symphony Orchestra, and Lang Lang, the superstar pianist from China, played two movements from Debussy's "Petite Suite," the first one tender, the second antic, with leaps of finger and wrist that set the audience giggling.
The performance was an encore at the National Symphony Orchestra's season-opening gala at the Kennedy Center Concert Hall. It signaled some new beginnings.

MATSUMOTO, Japan — The big news from Asia about Western classical music has been coming for a decade from China, where the surge in education and performance has been explosive.

The Chinese classical scene was amply represented in New York last season, alongside indigenous traditions, in a Carnegie Hall festival, Ancient Paths, Modern Voices, that prominently featured Lang Lang.

Tom Keefe, the Dean of St. Louis University's Law School, is resigning.
"Me and academia are like oil and water," the Belleville attorney told KSDK TV Channel 5.
Keefe put the blame on what he calls his political incorrectness and "big mouth."
There were also allegations of sexual harassment, but Keefe has denied those allegations.
"All I know is this. I know that I say politically incorrect things all the time. And I don't say them to hurt anybody. I just say them because my mouth is too big," Keefe said."But, I sure as heck don't have any knowledge or belief that ever harassed anyone. I don't understand that I'm even charged with that based on what I've been told. What I've been told is that what I did wrong is that I ran my mouth too much. And for that I'm sorry and for that I'm resigning."
St. Louis University has yet to issue an official statement on the matter.

Michael Dell kicked off the process to take Dell Inc. private. Now as other potential bidders crowd into the picture, Mr. Dell may end up losing control of his company.

More quote details and news » LP and activist investor Carl Icahn expressed interest in the computer maker before a key deadline for offers expired Friday, with each notifying a special committee of Dell's board that they are working on firm bids for the Round Rock, Texas, company, people familiar with the matter have said.
The step affords Blackstone and Mr. Icahn four more days to put together offers, these people have said. People familiar with the matter have said neither of the potential bids from Blackstone and Mr. Icahn for Dell top $15 a share.
Any firm offers that come in will go up against a proposed $24.4 billion buyout of Dell led by Mr. Dell and private-equity firm Silver Lake Partners that was announced last month. The proposed buyout, which works out to $13.65 a share, has been criticized by some shareholders as undervaluing the company.

Mr. Dell, 48, who owns 14% of Dell and founded the company in 1984 out of his dorm room, has potentially the most to gain if the Silver Lake-led buyout wins and perhaps the most to lose if the offer is unseated.
The Silver Lake buyout would give Mr. Dell majority control in Dell's equity and a shot at leading efforts to revive the company, as he would remain chairman and chief executive, handing him more formal control over the company.
But if Blackstone, Mr. Icahn or others unseat the Silver Lake deal, Mr. Dell may wind up on the sidelines without a say in the company. That might put the onus on Mr. Dell and Silver Lake to up their bid. At the same time, Mr. Dell would be enriched by any higher bid, given the size of his stake in the company.
Mr. Dell didn't immediately respond to an email seeking comment. A spokesman for Dell declined to comment on Mr. Dell's role in any potential alternative buyout offer.
The company has said Mr. Dell approached Dell's board last August with the idea of buying the computer maker out of the hands of public stockholders. That approach led to the board hiring financial advisers to explore a sale or other options for the company, and eventually to Dell's agreement to the Silver Lake buyout last month.
To help finance the deal, Mr. Dell pledged his own shares in the company—valued at more than $3.7 billion at the buyout price—and $750 million of his cash and equity from his investment fund, MSD Capital LP. The total value of his commitment dwarfs the $1.4 billion that Silver Lake has pledged toward the deal.
If Blackstone succeeds in unseating the existing buyout, however, Mr. Dell may lose his position as CEO. Blackstone is working on a deal that wouldn't require Mr. Dell to contribute his Dell shares into the buyout, people familiar with the matter said. It isn't clear whether Blackstone would ask Mr. Dell to contribute his stake.
As Blackstone has worked to assemble a potential rival deal, it also has approached other executives about potentially taking over as Dell's CEO. The potential candidates Blackstone has approached include Michael Capellas, a former CEO of PC maker Compaq that is now part of Hewlett-Packard Co. HPQ -1.44% Hewlett-Packard Co.

Under the Silver Lake deal, Dell's board got Mr. Dell to agree to a provision that negates his ability to defeat a buyout deal he doesn't support. According to the provision disclosed in a regulatory filing, if Dell shareholders vote on an agreement other than Silver Lake's, Mr. Dell has pledged to vote the stake he controls in the company in the same proportion as other stockholders—essentially neutralizing his stake.
Mr. Dell has been among the staunchest proponents of taking Dell private, an idea he sporadically has raised publicly and privately for several years. As recently as a Dell board meeting in December, Mr. Dell laid out his case for why his strategy to right the company was mismatched for public markets.
At the early December presentation to the board, Mr. Dell laid out four priorities for the company that he said likely would be badly received by public-market investors, according to a person briefed on the contents of a coming regulatory filing expected to detail the developments leading up to the buyout deal.
Mr. Dell's priorities included continuing to spend money on acquisitions and internal development of corporate software and services offerings, investing in Dell PCs and tablets, hiring more sales people to pitch Dell's offerings for businesses, and making a new push into emerging markets where profit margins tend to be thin, said people familiar with the matter.
Largely, the strategy continues what Dell has already done as a public company. According to one person briefed on the proxy contents, Mr. Dell told directors he supported taking the company private because the strategies he outlined were likely to weigh on profits and hurt the share price if the company were still public.

Career Services: I have not used career services.

Each year independent organisations nominate the best equipment from different categories of digital imaging products released in Europe during the preceding months.
Nikon's range of best-in-class products are chosen all over the world for their quality, variety and overall performance. Nikon continues to develop excellent products in its ambition to be the manufacturer and partner of choice for photographers at all levels. The awards underpin Nikon's leadership position in high-end photography and recognise the company's continued pursuit of excellence.
The Digital Imaging Websites Association (DIWA) is an international network of independent websites dedicated to digital imaging. The organization harnesses the collective expertise of its members to publish authoritative, neutral and reliable product reviews.
DIWA Gold, Silver and Bronze Awards are issued throughout the year for outstanding and highly-recommended products. At the end of each year a panel of expert judges assesses all of the Gold Award winners and selects the products that will receive a 'Best Of The Best' Platinum Award. The Awards only go to worthy winners: for example in the case of digital cameras, more than 200 details must be checked, tested and evaluated.
The European Imaging and Sound Association (EISA) is the largest editorial multimedia organization in Europe. Member magazines are specialists in the Audio, Mobile Electronics, Video and Photo arenas and are spread across Europe.
Every June, the editors-in-chief from all EISA member publications meet to decide which of the products analyzed in their publications over the preceding year deserve a coveted EISA Award. The EISA adopts a flexible approach towards its Awards and categories are not simply repeated year-on-year. Instead, the EISA Awards strive to reflect the marketplace and categories may be dropped or added to reflect market trends.
The Technical Image Press Association (TIPA) was founded in 1991 and is an organization of independent photo and imaging magazines from across Europe.
The annual TIPA Awards focus specifically on photo and imaging products. Members meet once a year to discuss projects, share opinions, and comment on industry innovations and trends. During these three-day meetings, TIPA editors vote by secret ballot for the best photo and imaging products in Europe. Products are judged based on quality, performance and value. The annual TIPA Awards are generally recognized as being one of Europe's most prestigious accolades for professional imaging products.
