Business Law
Ask a Business Lawyer. Get Business Law Questions Answered ASAP.
Unfortunately in the US anyone can sue anyone else for any reason. Whether your former partner has a reason to start a case to the extent that your departure from the company was not evidenced by the proper agreement(s) and/or the liquidation of the company was improper the answer to that is likely yes. The real question is whether he will prevail in the case -- that no one can answer. Let me explain
Most of what is permissive in LLCs is described in the companies operating agreement. If you will, the operating agreement is the constitution of the LLC. It tells members (that's what LLC partners are called) what they can and cannot do and under what circumstances.
The OA addresses this by saying the obligations of the firm must be settled and the firm dissolved within 60 days. I did some research online regarding terminating lease agreements early. The articles discuss different angles but ONE thing they all had in common is that they clearly stated that if you walk away from a lease, you and any guarantor would be liable for the rent for the rest of the lease or until there is a new tenant. Apparently, the law doesn't allow a landlord to charge one tenant rent once a new tenant occupies the same space and is paying rent. This seems pretty clear. When my partner dissolved our previous legal entity (the LLC) he founded his new entity - an S-Corp under a different name , and began operating from the same office space. In effect, he became the new tenant. So I would concede that our LLC owed the rent until the point in time that the new tenant moved in. My old partner could have moved out which would have allowed me to 1) Negotiated a buy-out with the landlord, or 2) attempt to locate a new tenant myself or hired a real estate broker to find a new tenant, or 3) stay in the space myself and sublease the remaining office space. The new tenant, my old partner's new firm, removed all of those options from the table by staying in the space.
You get the point. These are your defenses to his claims. Furthermore, if you have a buy-out agreement you need to review what are your liabilities after the buy-out.
Did your partner buy you out i.e. did the partner buy your 75%?
correction 25%
Unless you know for a fact that the landlord was paid by the new s-corp it is possible that notwithstanding the dissolution of the LLC your former partner kept paying the rent in the name of the LLC. Add to that the possibility that you did not have a properly buy-out agreement and this could mean that you are technically still on the hook
because the old LLC lease would still be in effect
No. He paid me nothing. He never bought me out. Held on to my capital account balance, all the physical assets, all the employees and the office space. I got nothing. Now that he's suing me I'm asking for all of those things in the counter suit. Basically, he completely ignored the operating agreement. I hired an attorney and we sent him notice to get off his butt and dissolve the LLC per the OA and that's when he sued me.
However, he and his attorney provided written notice that the LLC had been dissolved fully.
in your estimation how much was your 25% worth and how many money is he demanding now?
btw, if I'm on the hook then don't I have a legal right to occupy the space? He changed the locks and barred me access. Doesn't seem like one could do that. If I have a legal liability shouldn't I have access?
how much money that is
The OA says that he has to pay me over a four year period based on a fee calculation. The calculation comes to $50,000, plus $8,000 capital account, plus 25% of physical assets worth about $40,000. So all in, I'm asking for about $70,000. He's not arguing that he owes me that...but he's saying that I owe him about $50,000 over the next several years (and the past two years). Shouldn't I have been allowed to find a tenant for the space?
I think being allowed in the space is the least of your concerns. In fact him kicking you out created additional damages for you which you should be able to claim
he says I owe him about $50,000 for the lease. IT's only the lease that he's trying to recover....and there are still three more years left on it. It doesn't seem right that I can't force him out so that we can find a new tenant and relieve me of any potential obligation. He can simply force me to pay FIVE years of the lease? Why couldn't I stay in the space and boot him out and have him pay for 75% of the lease?
you could have but the issue is that you chose to leave instead of to challenge him. at this time I highly recommend that you retain a litigation attorney and
Yea there are a lot of additional damages but those might be harder to prove. My focus has been on proving he hasn't followed the terms of the operating agreement and that he has violated his fiduciary responsibility as the managing partner not to damage me financially.
pursue the matter in court. You have sustained significant damages and you need to recover what is owed to you
Do you think I have a good case?
I cannot say whether you have a good case because I have not reviewed any of the documents but anytime one has damages that is a sign that something is wrong and if something is wrong you have the right to rectify matter and make them right again.
Please retain a litigation attorney as soon as practiable.
good luck!

"We have nothing to do with the departure of these young people for Syria," he told a press conference in Tunis. Local radio station Express FM said 132 Tunisian fighters were killed in and round the northern city of Aleppo last month, mostly from the town of Sidi Bouzid, birthplace of the first Arab Spring uprising.
Tunisian experts say the country's mosques play a key role in spurring the young boys to leave for the conflict in Syria, influenced by the teachings of extremist imams. "The recruiters target uneducated and unemployed youths with financial incentives and religious fatwas," said Naceur Khechini, a professor of Islamic law.
"Radical Islamist groups are happy to use these Tunisians as cannon fodder," he said. "The recruits are systematically brainwashed and encouraged to be become martyrs."

When health insurance claims are rejected, it disappoints the customer more than anything else. Its a disappointing moment for the policy holder, when his trust is lost in company and he starts feeling that he was a fool to buy the health insurance policy at the first place and waste his premium, because companies are just fraud, who wants to loot the customers, by giving silly reasons for not settling the claim.
They feel companies are coming up with unreasonable reasons to reject their claims. This situation is a big blow to customer financially, because now they have to bear all the expenses from their own pocket. This is exactly what happens with many customers who have no idea of what their health insurance policy covers and does not cover.
What does a Health Insurance Policy does not Cover ?
In almost all the cases where claims are rejected and customers are disappointed, its seen that it happens because companies reject claims based on the policy document rules and what is covered or not covered into the policy, however the customer disappointment is always there, because there was a lack of understanding of what is covered and what is not covered. There various clauses like waiting period concept or exlusion of pre-existing illness, which customers do not try to understand fully and see health insurance policy as something which will just pay their bills in any medical case. However thats not true.
In this article I want to make you aware about the 4 major clauses in almost all the health insurance policies which will help you understand how exclusions work in case of health insurance policies and when you will not be paid. This will help you and companies both to make sure you are on the same page.
Exclusion #1 – Permanent Exclusions
Permanent exclusions are listed category of treatments, which are never covered in health insurance policy for whole life. They are excluded permanently from the ambit of the health insurance scope. These permanent exclusions are clearly mentioned in the policy document of the health insurance product under section "Permanent Exclusions".
Even before buying the policy, you can look at the PDF document of the policy which must be there on the health insurance company website. Almost all the companies have the same list of illnesses listed under this section, however you should anyways look at it. If you are looking for buying Health Insurance, our health insurance partner can help you choose the right health insurance policy. just leave your details at https://www.coverfox.com/jagoinvestor and you will get personal assistance and support.
Here is a sample list of some of the permanent exclusion taken from Religare Care Health Insurance policy(not the full list)
- Any condition directly or indirectly caused or associated with any sexually transmitted disease
- Any Treatment arising from or traceable to pregnancy, miscarriage, maternity, abortion or complications of any of these.
- Any Dental treatment or surgery unless necessitated due to an injury
- Charges incurred in connection with cost of spectacles or contact lenses, routine eye and ear examinations
- Any treatment related to sleep disorder etc
- Treatment of mental illness, stress , psychiatric or psychological disorders
- Any Treatment/surgery for change of sex or gender reassignments including any complication arising out of these treatments
- All preventive care, vaccination, including inoculation and immunizations
- Non Allopathic treatments
- Any Out Patient Treatment
- Treatment received outside India (unless its part of the policy)
- Act of self destruction or self inflicted injury , attempted suicide
- Any Hospitalization primarily for investigation or diagnosis purpose
- Cosmetic and aesthetic treatments
- plus, there are many others – which you should read in policy document
Here is an exact snapshot from Bharti Axa Health Insurance page
Exclusion #2 – Waiting Period Concept for selected illness
Each Health insurance policy has the concept of "Waiting Period" for a selected list of illnesses, which means that for first few years(which can be anywhere between 2-3 years) will not be covered under health insurance and only after that period they will be covered. So if waiting period is 2 years in some policy, and you take the policy in year 2014, the illness covered under waiting list will be covered only after 2 yrs are over.
This is one thing which customers do not pay attention to while taking the policy and if they get hospitalized due to some illness which is not covered under waiting period, their claim is rejected and then they feel cheated and complain about the company. Here is a real life case on our forum
Here is the list of some of the illness and diseases which are part of waiting period in most of the policies
- Arthritis , Osteoarthritis , Osteoporosis , Spinal Disorders, Joint replacement surgery
- ENT Disorders & surgeries, Deviation, Sinusitis and related disorders
- Cataract
- Dilation and Curettage
- Piles, Gastric Ulcers
- All types of Hernia , Hydrocele
- Internal tumors, Skin Tumors , cysts
- Kidney Stone , Gall Blader Stone
Some policies might have the specific waiting period for senior citizens, like in case of Family First policy by Max Bupa, there are few illness which are under 2 years waiting period for senior citizens, but not for young customers.
Exclusion #3 – Pre-Exisitng Illness
Another exclusion is "Pre-existing illness" in all the policy documents of all the health insurance policies. Pre-existing illness are those illnesses which are already detected for the patient. Most of the companies do not cover these pre-existing illness for starting 2-4 yrs (exact time varies from one company to another). So if someone is suffering from some respiratory illness already, then any treatments or hospitalizations which occurs due to respiratory problems will not be covered for first few yrs (the exact tenure depends on company). This is to prevent situations where a person is detected for some disease and he takes the health insurance so that he is covered for the hospitalization, this is simply not allowed and does not make any business logic. So thats the reason its said that one should take health insurance as soon as possible so that those initial few years are passed and then you are covered for wide range of illness.
Pre-existing illness in case of Senior Citizens
In case of senior citizens, pre-existing illness are excluded for rest of the life in most of the policies, because anyways there is higher probability of senior citizens getting hospitalized due to their existing illness. So if someone has undergone bypass surgery and they are senior citizen, any heart related treatments will not be covered for all life. It will be permanently excluded from the policy. Thats one big reason why I keep on saying that you should take your parents health insurance before they turn 60 yrs. There are some companies like Oriental Insurance, which does not even require medical tests for persons upto age of 60 yrs, just the declarations given in the health insurance form is enough.
Exclusion #4 – First 30-90 days waiting period
Almost all the health insurance companies do not give cover for any medical treatment for the first 30-90 days of taking the policy, except the medical expenses which result from injury (like accident). For example Religare Care have a initial 30 days waiting period, however Max Bupa Family First policy has a 90 day waiting period
Health Insurance is a preventive financial product, not a reactive financial product. You take health insurance to make sure that you are covered from future problems, not to deal with current medical issues. So when you are healthy, you should go for medical policy, so that you are covered for any long term medical issues. Most of the people start the procedure of buying health insurance when some illness is detected, and that's when health insurance policy will not help you much. Instead of having wrong expectations by assuming things, better analyse and research the health insurance policy properly and deeply by reading the policy document.
Let me know if you have any experiences on this or want to share something ?

The Commitment Problem of Secured Lending
The paper investigates optimal financial contracts when investment in pledgeable assets is endogenous and not observable to financiers. In a setting with uncertainty, two inputs with different collateral value and investment unobservability, we show that a firm-bank secured credit contract is time-inconsistent: Once credit has been granted, the entrepreneur has an ex-post incentive to alter the input combination towards the input with low collateral value and higher productivity, thus jeopardizing total bank revenues. Anticipating the entrepreneur's opportunism, the bank offers a non-collateralized credit contract, thereby reducing the surplus of the venture. One way for the firm to commit to the contract terms is to purchase inputs on credit and pledge them to the supplier in case of default. Observing the input investment and having a stake in the bad state, the supplier acts as a guarantor that the input combination specified in the bank contract will be actually purchased and that the entrepreneur will stick to the contract terms. The paper concludes that: (1) Buying inputs on account facilitates the access to collateralized bank financing; (2) Firms using both trade credit and collateralized bank finance invest more in pledgeable assets than firms only using uncollateralized bank credit. Our results are robust to the possibility of collusion between entrepreneur and supplier.

Placements down 15 percent in recent USDA report
May 25, 2012
This month's USDA cattle on feed report defied projections for a bullish result. Pre-report estimates placed the cattle on feed on May 1 at 100.5 percent of last year's numbers, placements at 88.5 percent, and marketings at 98.5 percent. Actual reported numbers for cattle on feed and placements were below estimates, and marketings exceeded expectations.

Scottish League One: Rangers boss Ally McCoist demands ruthless approach
Rangers boss Ally McCoist demanded a more ruthless approach from his players despite seeing them defeat Stranraer 3-0.
Last Updated: 18/08/13 10:51am
First half goals from Ian Black, Lewis Macleod and Lee McCulloch secured an easy win but McCoist, who scored a hat-trick in a 5-0 victory the last time the sides met in 1992, is keen for them to take full advantage when they are dominating a game.
"If I was playing today, I would have looked on that as an opportunity to batter a few goals in to get the goal tally up," he said.
"I don't just mean the forwards, I mean the midfielders as well. We definitely have to be more clinical in our approach to scoring more goals and killing teams off.
"The best way to show the opposition respect is to continue to play in the same manner for the entire 90 minutes no matter what the score is and I didn't think we did that in the second half."
But McCoist was pleased to claim a win on the road at the first attempt after they recorded three draws and a defeat in Scotland's bottom division last season before eventually securing their first away win in the league last October.
"It's been well documented that we didn't start well away from home last year," he added.
"We struggled to come to terms with the natural aggression and the tempo in the division.
"We were all very hopeful that wouldn't be the case this year and I'm hopeful the Forfar game (a shock defeat in the Scottish League Cup) was a one-off. To come down here and win comfortably 3-0 was pleasing."
McCoist also confirmed he has extended the trial period of former Everton goalkeeper Steve Simonsen after he trained with the club this week.
"He's coming back up on Monday morning for another week and we will see where that takes us," he said.
"He has shown up really well and we will get a chat with him when he's back up."
Meanwhile, Stranraer boss Stephen Aitken was left frustrated after his brother Chris was sent off 18 minutes from time for a second bookable offence.
"I was disappointed with him," he said. "As players on the park, when you're on a booking and the game is going away from us, the last thing you want to do is get sent off.
"It was a stupid sending off to get, especially in a game like that. But these things happen.
"I can't fault the players for effort, I thought they gave a good account of themselves. We can concentrate on the rest of the season now."

Associated Air Center, the overhaul, maintenance and modification center based in Dallas, Texas, announced that chief operating officer Jack Lawless is taking on additional responsibilities and will serve as the company's new business leader. The company is exhibiting at Booth No. 370 as part of the StandardAero group.
Nelson Barrett, who is moving out of that position to return to his previous role as senior vice president of services at Standard Aero in Winnipeg, Canada, said Lawless has worked closely with him during the past year. "His extensive experience and proven ability to drive operations and customer satisfaction are key to AAC's continued success in this challenging economic environment," he said. "He understands the issues and will continue to work closely with leaders across the organization to complete the business transformation project already under way."
Speaking about the current state of the VVIP completions market, Associated Air Center's executive vice president of sales and marketing, Patrick Altuna, said he is cautiously optimistic despite the current economic and financial crisis. He attributed the positive outlook in part to a decision the company made some time ago to focus on the Boeing Business Jet and Airbus Corporate Jetliner families. "Associated Air Center is currently at work on three BBJs and three ACJs, and we're booked through 2009 and for much of 2010. Some customers have asked for delivery deferrals or we would be booked well into 2011."
Altuna also said he views the EBACE show as an perfect opportunity to speak with European operators.

Is there an interview from R/C and J/K coming?
Great interview, John! Thanks for asking my question about the Roadblock in Hawaii. :up
The explanation for their immediate getaway to Sydney was very enlightening, too. I wish that decision hadn't been such a disaster for them. They were a great team.
:yeahthat :nod
There are interviews with J/K and R/C forthcoming. I'll probably space them out every 2 hours or so this afternoon, so each of them get their props, and because I hate listening to myself ask questions on tape after a little while.
John, you better give the system another boost because every TAR4 fan will be reading them.;)
Thanks John. Excellent interview as always! :triplets
Dang. I would have loved to see them finish the race tightly with Kelly/Jon and Chip/Reichen.
Great interview, as always. :up And thanks to them for participating. :)
When they actually started to edit these guys into the show more, you could tell how funny they were (I remember their comments about the elephant ride :lol). Perhaps production cut them out just because they got along so well? :shrug Ridiculous. I would have loved to see their humor included more often.
Awesome Interview!
Great Interview John!! :clap :clap :clap
I really enjoyed hearing about the tasks they had completed in Hawaii. It did look really, really dark where they showed them at the clue box and I cannot even imagine trying to swim out and go diving for a rock in the ocean when you cant see anything at all in front of you. I'm shocked they were even able to find the rock. Not to even mention trying to hammer it to bits on the beach not being able to see what you are trying to hit.
Also I really liked hearing about their get together with Phil later on. That sounds like a great time.
Totally love these interviews.
Great job, John! :up I've been missing your interviews these past weekd. :)
Congratulations to Jeff & David. Fantastic race! :up

Elite Screens Kestrel 80" Diagonal Floor Rising Electric Projection Screen
Once it's set in place and plugged in, the Elite Screens Kestrel rises smoothly into position when the "Up" button is pushed. The mechanism uses scissors-style (think car tire jack) steel parts to raise and lower the screen, which is unrolled from a tube inside the case. The top cover of the case has the screen attached to it and the scissors raise it into place. Operation is fairly quiet and the screen rises to its full height in less than 30 seconds. The screen can be stopped at any point during the raising operation. If opened fully, there is a 32" black drop below the screen surface. This puts the screen at the proper height for viewing when seated.

It should be noted that the drive motor has an overheat protection sensor. If the screen is consecutively raised and lowered within a 3-4 minute period, the motor will automatically shut-off to prevent the motor from overheating. If this happens, the user must allow 30 minutes cool-down time before resuming operation.
The Kestrel's CineWhite screen is listed with a gain of 1.1, which is typical for a matte white screen. I compared it with my Carada Brilliant White screen, which has a listed gain of 1.4, but has been measured closer to 1.3. Taking readings of a 100 IRE (white) screen on both, the CineWhite material came in at about 1.12, which puts it right at its rating.
Color Accuracy
I then measured a 100 IRE (white) window both from the projector and the screen for the balance of red, green and blue components. The Kestrel displayed an increase in blue (not unusual for many white matte screens) of about 3%. This is not excessive and a full screen white field did not have any blue tinge to it in the projector's THX mode. This shift toward blue was slightly more noticeable using one of the projector's brighter settings, which tend to overemphasize blue anyway. By comparison, my Carada screen (which is one of the more neutral ones out there) actually has a reduction in blue of about 1%.
Overall, the slight blue shift of the Elite Kestrel can easily be accounted for during calibration, such that the resulting image will look no different than it does on the Carada.
The screen uses the cord-type tensioners normally found in motorized wall screens. These cords are attached via loops at various points along the screen's height to keep horizontal tension on the screens, thus minimizing any distracting "waves" in the screen surface. While our test unit still had a few small waves along the top edge of the screen, it wasn't noticeable in normal viewing and will likely tend to smooth out further the longer the screen remains fully open. I also saw one of the non-tensioned Kestrels and it had some noticeable (albeit small) waves in the screen surface. For that reason, I would highly recommend paying the extra money for the tensioned version, especially if the screen is going to be used for a home theater.

North Melbourne coach Brad Scott says his team is "primed" for next Saturday night's final against Essendon and in better shape than ever, with a number of key players set to return.
Scott suggested that all the players who were left out of the final round game against the Demons would resume. The Roos entered the Saturday night game at Etihad Stadium without Todd Goldstein, Lindsay Thomas, Luke McDonald, Levi Greenwood and Michael Firrito.
While Brent Harvey's suspension rules the veteran champion out, the Roos could also be without defender Lachie Hansen, who was subbed off at half-time with a hip injury. "I'd say he's in doubt, I mean it's something he's managed throughout the year...So we'll just see how he pulls up."
Scott said of his team's finals prospects: "I think we're in better shape than we've been all year..the guys that we've left out will be cherry ripe and the guys that came in, you know, the guys that came in, some of them are going to give us real selection headaches. Mason Wood looks like a real AFL player...Kane Turner continues to impress."
Scott explained that Nick Dal Santo had started as the substitute, in a compromise after he resisted a push to sit the game out. "So that was the compromise." Chris Dawes collected Andrew Swallow, the North captain, with a late hit high that could see the Melbourne forward suspended by the match review panel.
Leigh Adams was subbed out with concussion, prompting Scott to confront the club doctor, who seemingly overlooked the fact that Hansen had already been subbed and that the concussion sub rule - in which there is a 20-minute assessment period - did not apply, since a substitution had been made.
"Had zero annoyance with our players," said Scott of the irritation he showed at three-quarter time. "Some staff members copped it."
Scott added, when asked about his words with the club doctor. "You've got to know the rules of the game. I'll talk to him in private."
Scott also expressed admiration for Essendon's players and their capacity to endure off-field trauma again this year. "They're a good side, they've earned their way into the finals. And you know I've got a lot of admiration for the way they've, the players, have acquitted themselves this year under some duress off-field. You can't help but have that seep, off-field seep into on-field issues at times, but they've weathered that storm really well. They're a good outfit.
"We're primed and ready to go. You know, we'll play a side full of really fit, fresh players who are more resilient, more hardened and ready for what's coming."
Melbourne coach Paul Roos said his team's first priority would be to improve the playing list and reiterated his longstanding view that "every player is tradeable in my view".
Roos suggested the Demons would continue to focus on midfielders in the post-season draft and trading period, in which the Demons will have no worse than the second pick in the national draft, and potentially could receive another for James Frawley.
Roos said he did not know if James Frawley had played his last game for the club this weekend. "I really don't know if it was his last game to be honest. He's certainly been engaged with the group, and there's been no signs...that he's put his cue in the rack.
"If he does leave, we wish him well. If he doesn't, we'll be rapt for him to stay. We'll continue to have discussions with him."

ARM's New GPUs to Step up Mobile War With NVIDIA, Imagination Tech.
Jason Mick
November 10, 2011 4:46 PM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
New octacore designs will likely launch in late 2012 or early 2013 in Samsung smartphones and tablets
ARM Holdings, Plc. (
) is making waves in the crowded mobile graphics market, airing a new, more powerful next-generation design [
The chipmaker, best known for its licensed reduced instruction set computer (RISC) processors,
is also pushing
licensable mobile graphics processing unit (GPUs) technology, including the new design -- dubbed the Mali-T658. The Mali-T658 smartphone-aimed multi-core GPU promises smoother HD video playback and improved polygon pushing in games.
I. Mali's Competitors are Mali's Partners
ARM Holdings (or just ARM, for short) makes a GPU solution that competes with Qualcomm, Inc.'s (
) Adreno GPU, NVIDIA Corp.'s (
) mobile GeForce derivatives, and Imagination Technologies Group Plc.'s (
) PowerVR designs.
Qualcomm and NVIDIA also happen to be the two of ARM Holdings biggest clients, licensing its
design, used in their respective Snapdragon and Tegra lines.
In other words, ARM is competing against its own biggest clients. The awkward relationship brings to mind Google Inc.'s (
) dual-role as a smartphone OEM competitor via
recently acquired Motorola Mobility
and its
as a smartphone OS maker, gifting its Android OS on its OEM-level competitors like South Korea's Samsung Electronics Comp., Ltd. (
). Coincidentally Samsung licenses ARM's CPU
GPU designs, and other Android handset makers like Google almost exclusively use ARM-licensed CPUs.

The odd web of ARM CPU-makers, GPU-makers, and Android OEMs may be messy, but thus far it's spread a whole lot of revenue and prosperity around. In other words, cooperation has been good, and the competition hasn't been bad either.
II. Eight Cores of Power
Setting aside the sticky web of licensing and GPU entrants, the new T658 GPU represents a major technical stem forward for mobile GPUs.
Like most GPU architectures, ARM's GPU design consists of shader cores each with arithmetic pipelines capable of doing parallel math operations. Modern graphics is largely about intense floating point (e.g. scientific notation decimal numbers) math, except when it comes to colors.
Both the T604 and T658 are Mali Midgard GPUs. The Midgard GPU uses an arithmetic, load/store and texturing "tri-pipe" design. Figures indicate a double ALU per core design is used. In other words, each core can do three or four simultaneous kinds of operations on two ALUs.

It's important to note that this is somewhat different from
NVIDIA's Geforce-derived design in Tegra 3
, which employs shaders with a single ALU per core. As a second point of comparison, PowerVR offers a very similar dual ALU layout to what ARM Holdings is doing here.
ARM has enhanced its GPU in two ways from the previous Mali-T604 design.
First, it's doubled the arithmetic pipelines in each shader core. Second it's doubled the number of (fragment) shader cores from four to eight. The new octacore GPU is on paper four times faster, as the result of these two major changes. These changes allow it to essentially match rival Imagination Technologies' Power VR SGX544 design (which also has 8 cores x 2 ALUs per core).

The Midgard family looks promising, not only for smartphone chip designs (the primary target), but tablets, netbooks, and laptops, as well. Specifically it packs support for a host of GPU computing and graphics APIs, making it among the most multifunctional chips on paper.
Comments ARM Media manager Steve Steele, "I should mention that Midgard supports all your favourite graphics APIs (Khronos™ OpenGL® ES, OpenVG™, Microsoft® DirectX® 11) and Compute APIs (Khronos OpenCL™, Google® RenderScript™ compute and Microsoft DirectCompute®). And not just any OpenCL I might add – Full Profile OpenCL is supported thanks to the IEEE 754-2008 floating point capability built into the GPU hardware."
By contrast the SGX554 is a bit more limited in its standards support, though this doesn't exactly affect most users on the smartphones end -- as most smartphone apps (e.g. browsers and image editors) are still in the early stages of GPU computing optimization.
Both Tegra 3 and the Mali T658 are capable of supporting up to 1080p. Tegra 3 promises 1280x1024 pixel resolution -- OS allowing. By contrast, details on Mali's LCD driving capabilities weren't revealed.
It's rumored that one advantage that Mali may have over rival designs like Geforce and PowerVR is cache coherence -- i.e. in layperson's terms, it can share its fast local memory between the GPU and CPU.
In the limited available information some important details are unknown, namely:
Did the vertex shader count change?
Is the ALU count per fragment shader still two (as early diagrams suggested)?
How wide is the ALU/are the ALUs? (See
for a guess at the width from the
gen. design.)
What does the pipeline look like/how deep is it?
What's the clock speed?
What resolutions are supported by the built-in LCD driver?
We're reaching out to ARM for answers. But don't necessarily expect a response -- the company is notoriously cagy on details about its implementation.
III. What Phones/Tablets Will This Land in, And How Good Will They Be?
The GPU is "out now" from ARM, but that means someone still has to go and put the little bugger on a finished chip design.
Samsung's processor line recently made an important switch from Imagination Technologies GPUs to ARM Holding GPUs. The older Hummingbird chips (still in use) pack PowerVR GPUs, but the new Exynos chips pack Mali GPUs. This a huge win for ARM Holdings as it means that its GPUs are in the latest and greatest products from Samsung, including
the best-selling Android smartphone, the Galaxy S II
The Galaxy S II used the Mali T400 design -- the last major design before Midgard. This two-generations-old design was capable of the best overall graphics performance of any smartphone in OpenGL benchmarks (though trailing higher-clocked Imagination Technologies' SGX540 in pure triangle output)
in September
, but has
since been dethroned
by the SGX543 MP2 (onboard the iPhone 4S) in benchmarks.
It's hard to say when the Mali-T658 products will land, but Q3 2012 seems a fair guess. That's just after Imagination Technologies is deploying its octacore-ready SGX554 architecture (Q2 2012).
The latest Samsung roadmap shows the Exynos 5250 as the first chip to sport the Mali T604. That's due out in 2012. Samsung commonly releases two system-on-a-chip designs per year, so a second half 2012 launch sounds about right.
With the next-generation not-yet-named Exynos Mali T658-equipped chip and the Exynos 5250, ARM Holdings is poised to likely spring into second or third, behind Imagination Technologies (and potentially NVIDIA) in the smartphone/tablet market. PowerVR remains entrenched on devices from Apple, Inc. (
) and Motorola Mobility.
The major unknown is Tegra. By 2012,
Tegra 4 (codename
) chips
will be dropping with a host of improvements, including a GPU design which can have up to 64 cores (of course, comparing this to ARM Holdings and Imagination Technologies' octa-core GPUs is a bit questionable as the architectures are apparently very different). If Tegra 4 can come out ahead of the SGX554 at the Mali-T658 in performance, it just might continue its climb in market share. Tegra is increasingly being picked up by Motorola, LG Electronics, Inc. (
), and traditional PC makers turned tablet market entrants like Acer Inc. (
A final player worth mentioning is Qualcomm, whose Adreno design comes in the Snapdragon processors heavily used by HTC Corp. (
). Qualcomm will surely be looking to bring its A game too, so it's too soon to count it out.
A final word:
Who offers the best power efficiency, the best performance, and the best combination of the two is clearly only part of the picture. A major aspect of the success or failure of these various entrants -- including the Mali-T658 -- boils down to what kind of deals with OEMs are reached, and how those OEMs fare in the market.

Wed 1 Aug 2012 in 50,-5:
The hash was located in a horse field near St. Erth, Cornwall.
Following the success of my Virgin Graticule Hash the day before, my girlfriend and I set off bright and early to get to a place that our OS Map called Splattenridden. By luck the hash was only about 5 kilometers from the previous days hash! Again, my girlfriend parked up and I walked towards the hash, only to find a gate complete with electric fence blocking my way, and a house in the distance. Undeterred I retraced my steps and knocked on the door of the house, and it was answered by a lovely lady who was very understanding of my mad technological hiking games. I explained that the hash was in her garden, and asked whether I could go in and find it, however, she went one better, and got her husband to show me around! Bill, as I later learned was his name, took me into the garden, and then when the hash was found to be a few metres the other side of the hedge, took me over a few gates, and under a few electric fences, into a field where he had until recently worked for almost his entire life.
I wrote down the address of my user page, so if you get to read this, thank you so much for taking me to the geohash, I couldn't have hoped to meet a nicer couple of people.

11 November 2010, London, UK, and Cambridge, MA: Antisoma plc (LSE: ASM; USOTC:
ATSMY) announces that a scheduled interim analysis showed that the ATTRACT-2
trial should stop as ASA404 was unlikely to provide any benefit as a second-line
treatment for non-small cell lung cancer.
Glyn Edwards, CEO of Antisoma, said: "The findings from ATTRACT-2 mirror those
from ATTRACT-1 and therefore come as no surprise. Our focus for some time has
been on other programmes, most notably AS1413, which reports phase III data in
the first half of next year."

About the ATTRACT studies in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)
ATTRACT-2 was a pivotal study carried out by Novartis to evaluate ASA404 in
previously treated, advanced NSCLC. Patients were randomised to receive either
ASA404 plus docetaxel or a placebo plus docetaxel as a control. A separate
study, ATTRACT-1, had investigated ASA404 as a first-line treatment for NSCLC.
About ASA404
ASA404 (vadimezan, formerly known as DMXAA and AS1404) is a small-molecule
Tumour-Vascular Disrupting Agent (Tumour-VDA) which targets the blood vessels
that nourish tumours. The drug was discovered by Professors Bruce Baguley and
William Denny and their teams at the Auckland Cancer Society Research Centre,
University of Auckland, New Zealand. It was in-licensed by Antisoma from Cancer
Research Ventures Limited (now Cancer Research Technology), the development and
commercialisation company of the Cancer Research Campaign (now Cancer Research
UK), in 2001. Worldwide rights to the drug were licensed to Novartis AG in April

I confess to having been following this thread (and others like it) with some interest, finding both sides of the "to-help-or-not-to-help" argument personally compelling. On the one hand Hitch's extended post resonated intellectually with me; professional Darwinism appeals to me as a consumer of all-too-frequently poorly formatted retail ebooks. When I come across one of these disasters, it inevitably leads to a solid 5 or 10 minutes of grumbling and stewing in my own indignation over the fact that someone was actually
to produce such a shameful product. On the other hand, exaltedwombat's position is one to which i'm instinctively emotionally drawn to. After all, I've relied strongly—indeed, bordering on exclusively—on the generosity of MR's members in sharpening my own amateur ebook-creation skills. The idea that by virtue of being a "professional" one can no longer call on that same said generosity seems to me a bit draconian. After all, is a published author no longer allowed to use a thesaurus because he should already have an encyclopedic knowledge of that particular skill set (vocabulary)?
I wonder if there isn't some happy medium to be found. Whatever the case, I question the value of scolding the less-knowledgable professionals for having the temerity to ask. If you feel morally compelled to withhold your assistance, that is, of course, your prerogative, and—as I said—I certainly can see (and have seen) scenarios on MR in which the exercise of said prerogative would strike me as totally justified. But isn't staying silent enough? Or do you really think that there's any chance at all that by taking to task someone you consider to be a sub-par professional, he will suddenly repent of his sins, contact his client, and cancel his contract? Or more likely, will he just open a new account under a new name and remember never to mention the fact that he's being financially compensated?
