Bilbao: Carlsen wins again, now tied for first place with Caruana
In Tuesday's seventh round of the Masters Final in Bilbao Magnus Carlsen won again. The Norwegian grandmaster beat Francisco Vallejo, and now shares first place with Fabiano Caruana, who drew his game with Sergey Karjakin. The encounter between Levon Aronian and Vishy Anand also ended in a draw. Wednesday is a rest day.

He had a bit of a slow start in Brazil, but in Bilbao the world's number one needed just two rounds to make up for that. After beating Vallejo in 43 moves on Tuesday, Carlsen caught Caruana in first place as the Italian drew his game with Karjakin. During the rest day, the "two Cs" have 12 points which is 3 more than Levon Aronian. The Masters Final is starting to look a lot like the 2011 edition, when Carlsen also made a comeback in the second half (and emerged as the winner).
Carlsen now joint first with Caruana
Contrary to what the official press release writes, Carlsen did not "raise" the "so-called 'Winawere variant' of the french opening." Instead, the Norwegian avoided the heavy Winawer theory by taking on d5 on the 4th move, transposing into the Exchange Variation. He said:
I wanted to avoid the most theoretical lines and besides I think it's possible to fight for a small advantage even in this variation.
The early middlegame started quietly, but soon thing got more complicated when White directed his pieces towards the opponent's king. Vallejo got into slight timetrouble and then made two inaccuracies which decided the game.
The final phase of the game Carlsen vs Vallejo
Caruana dropped two points as he couldn't break through Karjakin's defensive setup in a Berlin Ending. The Russian GM said something typical of top level chess these days:
It's one of the most critical lines in the Berlin. Of course I analysed it a lot but as there are many lines, I could not remember which was the best line for Black.
Did Vishy Anand ever play seven draws in a row? We'll leave that to our readers to sort out, but it does start to look like a personal record for the Indian.
Update: as Sigvat notes, the first eight games of the 1995 PCA World Championship Match Kasparov-Anand were all drawn. But in a tournament?
We'd like to add that it doesn't really say much: many top players play tournaments with lots of draws these days. But OK, at least the "fans" have something to talk about...
Aronian said about the game:
I thought I had pressure, I was happy to receive this position. I think I was not playing accurately and as in previous encounters with Vishy, if you don't play accurately, that's his strength, he neutralizes very well.
I had the feeling I had to go for g4 in many places, but I couldn't work it out. Somehow Black is in time, in my calculations. I thought perhaps it's a better idea to slowly put pressure on my opponent but maybe I went too slow at times.
Wednesday is a rest day in Bilbao. At the press conference Vallejo said that there would be a football match in the morning. On Twitter Karjakin mentioned that he was planning to join "if he didn't oversleep", while Aronian had something else in mind.
If the weather is good I'll try and go see one of the beaches here, maybe even swim. I know you guys don't swim right now, but for somebody born in a cold climate it's alright!

Since Vishy is past his prime, is there any emerging player like him from India?

If sofia rule is applied why Anand aronian agreed to draw before 40 moves?
The rule states that "Players are not allowed to agree to a draw without the arbiter's permission". Apparently the arbiter is strong enough (Elo 1800 may suffice) to realize that this opposite-colored bishops ending is dead drawn: even Carlsen (or an engine) cannot win it against any GM, even Vallejo on a bad day cannot lose ...

Go Valejo... Two draws against the World Champion! Bravo!!
I got a chance to meet Valejo when he was working with Anand. My gut feeling back then was he's a better second than he is a player.
He may get a top ten scalp every blue moon, hold a theoretical converstion 20+ moves deep, even secure a draw against the world champion but , it's more likley he'll lose a won or drawn game against the top dogs.

If Anand is trying for a desperate draw here, then his opponents are unable to pull a win from Anand at any cost. So, you may need to think why his opponents are settling for a draw against Anand. Was it the incapability of Carlsen, Aronian to make a win against Anand? :)

RE: "Did Vishy Anand ever play seven draws in a row?" That one's easy, the first eight games of the 1995 PCA world championship match against Kasparov were all drawn.
Sometime it takes Anand awhile to warm up. Let's see if he adopts a different approach to the last leg of this exhibition tournee. Up to now he's been solid as a rock!
@'Reality Check' ;-)
Believe it or not, Anand is far beyond his peak as a chess player, as he thoroughly demonstated for the past 2 years. This simple fact naturally doesn't diminish all his extraordinary past achievements (including world titles) in any way. He will be remembered as one of the true greats of chess.
He is also a most excellent and modest person. However, taking into account the quality of your posts (or rather the lack thereof), I presume Anand would almost certainly shy away from being related to your ridiculous fan-boyism. Probably anybody would.
your assessment of Reality Check is perfect. I m a big fan of Anand, but i measure his performances objectively. If he s playing bad, he s playing bad....what is this fan boyism...

The only think that stands out Anand is that he was Kasparov's whipping boy and basically inherited the WC by default.
If I was a tournament organizer, given their is no fight left in him, I would not invite him to tournaments.
Your statement is moot since he went on to win a match against the player that defeated Kasparov in a match. That makes him a legit champion.
@Cyric Renner.
It is very clear that you neither like anand or anand's style of play(including his peak period performance).Then why are still following up anand's game and commenting on the same .It will be better if you stop following anand's game and focus on ur wish list player and comment about them.
What do u mean by inherited the WC by default? Did'nt he defeat kramink who defeated kasparov.
If you don't like A player it is your problem, not problem of others.
More recently, he scored an unbeaten 4.5/9 in Tal Memorial 2011 - to continue with two draws in the first rounds of London.
But on their own, such statistics do not necessarily mean much: this year, Topalov started Tata Steel with six consecutive draws (then a loss, then two more draws). In the same tournament, van Wely had ten draws in a row. In both cases, it doesn't mean that they didn't try to win, only that they didn't manage.
Anand drew the last four in the title match, so he has eleven draws in a row at the moment. In Tal Memorial 2011/London 2011/Gelfand 2012/Grand Slam final 2012 Anand has scored:
+2 -2 =32
The two wins came against Short, and then the one where Gelfand blundered in the opening and lost the shortest game ever in a title match.

Anand drew all nine of his games at the Tal Memorial in 2011 !
1 year 6 months ago
Besides Tal Memorial 2011, Anand also drew his first 9 games in Corus 2010 (last tourney before becoming Tata Steel). He eventually won 2 out of his 4 last games to finish +2. So he's not going for a record: he's just getting into a very boring habit.
Redivivo counted his draws just for those last 4 events, but my guess is this trend is much "worse" if we go back a little further...
"my guess is this trend is much "worse" if we go back a little further..."
silvakov guesses, I checked. Anand-bashers like to ignore four consecutive events in late 2010 to January 2011 where Vishy did well: Bilbao 2010 +1=5, Nanjing 2010 +3=6-1, London 2010 +2=5, Tata Steel 2011 +4=9.
Going back to 2008/2009, there is Corus 2008 (+3=9-1), Linares 2008 (+4=9-1), Linares 2009 (+2=10-2) and Tal Memorial 2009 (+2=6-1). Overall at least no sign that things are 'worse' going further back in time!?
Dear Mr Reality Check,
Since you took the liberty to reply to Comment in the Previous Round...and use such high profile words as Baloney and Shame (5 times). I d also like to humbly reply to the attitude you are carrying as i see from your various Posts.
Here are my comments and i hope you ll take them in the Best of spirits without considering them to be a personal Attack on Your good self.
1. What i meant by my Post was simply that Anand is playing boring chess, mostly relying on Opening Preperation and that he is afraid of losing so he does not take enough risks even in 3 1 0 tournament. where 1 win and 1 loss is more valuable that 2 draws.
2. Since you took the liberty to comment on me, i have one observation of my own which i see from your comments. It seems to me that you are unnecessarily jelous of Magnus Carlsen and you just can t appreciate the kid who s jst 21 and has accomplished a lot.
3. It also seems to me that you lose objectivity in your blind support for Anand which i don t. I ve been his supportor...but if he plays bad, i see objectively...same way...its not that i am the biggest fan of Magnus. But if he s playing intersting chess, be it avoiding thoretical lines to win, i appreciate.
4. I sincerely hope you d give up this habit, and look at chess more rationally, then you d not be jelous of any particular player and love the beautiful game.
Cheers and Peace !!!
Dear Mrs. abhi,
don't be offended but, I think you are full of ....
That high profile word won't be hard to guess. It'll only be used once. Still I'd like to address the 4 mickey mouse points you had the gall to pen.
1. Here you repeat only what you hear others say: the punch lines are: "boring chess", "opening prep", "fear of losing", "risk averse" etc etc. You're nothing but a parrot. You tweet?
2. Really, you should re-read the comments. Maybe you shd enroll in a reading comprehension class and review psychology 101. You're not getting it.
3. Anand supporter?? Here, you remind me of a traitor. No, an impostor.
4. Give up what habit? See point no.: 2.
Don't try to bang your head to wall. Just chill, ignore n move on.
@ Anonymous Here we frown on anti-semetic comments. BTW, you're not as anonym as you might think. Remember that.
This self-declared "Reality Check"-er is obviously a lost case. We'll have to bear with him like we have to with irremediable nuisances in our lives. Let's just save energy enjoy him babbling.
Didn't he just call Carlsen a Homo erectus playing coffeehouse chess? And for some reason he gets very upset if someone says that Anand hasn't been impressive lately :-)
Dear Mr Reality Check,
As you can see, most pple are supporting me...so may be its time for you to do a reality Check !!! for yourself. I was reading some of the posts....before...and 1 person commented...that even Vishy would shy away from your fanboyism..... i think that post describes you aptly.....
i would still suggest you to view chess objectively and not be biased towards 1 person (Anand in this case)...... and if you think i m full of .... (whatever you meant) just because i speak the truth....then perhaps i am full of ..... ;)
To put the negativity about Anand in context: noone, or hardly anyone would suggest that Aronian is past his prime, yet he also has a pretty drawish tournament - only one win against Karjakin, and that game could have ended with a forced and quite spectacular draw. Three games by Aronian were also rather routine draws (both games against Anand and the second one against Karjakin). He missed wins against Carlsen (who declined the Berlin ending and subsequently got away with a blunder) and Caruana but almost ended up worse against Vallejo.
There were three reasons for decisive games:
- Carlsen and Caruana traded wins, which helps both due to football scoring (I don't mean to imply that this was done on purpose).
- Who played Karjakin early in the event before he found his form?
- Who found a recipe against Vallejo? Carlsen's approach won't suit everyone - you have to be used to playing harmless openings. And this approach doesn't always work, for example not against Giri in Wijk aan Zee this year ("bad luck" for Carlsen that he faced Giri before he collapsed at the end of the event?). Caruana was "lucky" that Vallejo blundered in a sharp variation, while holding against other players under similar conditions.
"hardly anyone would suggest that Aronian is past his prime, yet he also has a pretty drawish tournament - only one win against Karjakin"
Isn't there some difference there? Aronian has only won one game in this tournament, but in Wijk he won seven (7!) games and the tournament with a big margin. He won against Caruana and Nakamura in Tal Memorial and won first board gold in the Olympiad. This year alone he has won in classical chess against Kramnik, twice against Karjakin, Ivanchuk, twice against Caruana, Nakamura, Gashimov, twice with black against Giri, Kamsky, Gelfand, Vallejo, Naiditsch, etc. Hard to see the comparison with Anand there.
I was talking about this particular ongoing tournament, and do not question that Aronian showed overall better form than Anand (and most other players) recently - even if a complete picture also includes his losses against Carlsen, Navara, twice against Kramnik, McShane and Morozevich. As Tal Memorial doesn't have football scoring, his final 4.5/9 was the same as Anand's result last year. If Anand had played as many events as Aronian - without worrying about a WCh match (Gelfand demonstrated in London that he isn't a pushover as people predicted beforehand) - he might have scored at least a few more wins?
Well, you meant that the negative comments about Anand's chess the last years were placed in context by the fact that hardly anyone claims that Aronian is past his peak because he only won one game here this far. But he also missed two wins and this is still just one event, so considering his excellent results throughout the year and his being less then three points from his career high Elo it seems strange to wonder why few consider him to be past his peak.
I was referring to Anand's _current_ tournament which is just slightly worse than Aronian's. Anand can still catch up with him - I don't rule out that he wins at least one of his remaining games. Different from what others assume, I don't think he lacks ambition, things just didn't go his way (yet?).
Applying high standards for a player of Aronian's class, it isn't all true that he had excellent results _throughout_ the year: 50% at Tal Memorial must have been a slight disappointment, and he also won't be all happy with Sao Paulo/Bilbao so far - exactly because he missed two wins.
Nor was "Anand's chess the last years" all bad: repeating myself, four consecutive second places in supertournaments late 2010/early 2011 were bad only for people with a winner takes it all mentality. Preparing for WCh matches did affect his play in some tournaments - we don't know yet how Aronian (and Carlsen) would/will cope with such a situation!
"I was referring to Anand's _current_ tournament which is just slightly worse than Aronian's"
One can't just say about every tournament that it's just one tournament no matter how many of them that come in a row, and mean that it's strange that no one thinks that Aronian is past it because players supposedly should be judged based on the ongoing tournament only (where Aronian still has played much better than Anand).
"Nor was "Anand's chess the last years" all bad: repeating myself, four consecutive second places in supertournaments late 2010/early 2011 were bad only for people with a winner takes it all mentality"
Between January 2011 and October 2012 is close to two years. I don't think results two years back or more say much about Anand's current form, especially not considering that Aronian's form apparently is to be judged by his seven games here only, where he had winning positions in three games even if he only won one this far.
"Preparing for WCh matches did affect his play in some tournaments - we don't know yet how Aronian (and Carlsen) would/will cope with such a situation!"
Anand says that he didn't play any tournament while preparing for matches the last years, and that he is trying his hardest to win games in all of them. I seriously doubt that Carlsen or Aronian would be unable to win games if they had a match against Gelfand some time in the distant past or future. Looking at the results of all players that played title matches the last 20 years most of them had great results in tournaments before the matches.
I think Anand is past it (and that Aronian isn't), but I would certainly like to be proved wrong about Anand. He has been a great player for more than 20 years, but lately he hasn't reminded of the guy in 2007-08 that was on a totally different level.
"Caruana was "lucky" that Vallejo blundered in a sharp variation, while holding against other players under similar conditions."
Maybe, but definitely Caruana was "lucky" in the sense that Carlsen made one if his very rare blunders in heavy time trouble in their first game, thus not converting a winning position. Hadn't he blundered, he would now be leading by 3 points.
Anand never got close to a winning position in any of his games here.
"Hadn't he blundered, he would now be leading by 3 points"
Six points even.
"Caruana won because Carlsen blundered" is IMO a gross simplification of what (all) happened in their first game, namely
- Carlsen was worse, maybe close to lost out of the opening (which Caruana failed to exploit)
- Carlsen then got an advantage, but - objectively spoken - probably not enough to win
- Looking for a win that may not have been there he got himself into heavy time trouble - self-inflicted and arguably "a blunder before he blundered"
- Then Caruana played a risky continuation (objectively a blunder as much as Carlsen's response) which then became "a brilliant blunder".
Never mind that many journalists (including Peter Doggers) came up with such a 'simplified' summary of the game, completely ignoring the opening phase.
"Carlsen made one of his very rare blunders ..." - depending on what counts as a blunder, it isn't THAT rare: In Wijk aan Zee, he made a mistake and lost against Karjakin. In the first rounds of Tal Memorial, he misplayed the opening against Kramnik and Morozevich but escaped with draws. In Sao Paulo he also blundered against Aronian and was "lucky" that Levon returned the favor. That's five blunders in 47 rated games - only those I readily remember, there may be more.

Is it so difficult to come up with something to say about the actual games, really? What's the purpose of this back-and-forth? Several of these comments are just embarrassing.

There has been a lot of negativity surrounding Anand. When he had won the WC in tournament format, there were a huge number of comments of how tournaments didn't count/matches separate men from boys. Now it is about his lack of tournament wins.
There are some Anand fans who are disappointed they not see him winning. But most posters are just negative of him out of spite. One can count Kasparov among these. Chess doesn't polish our soul.
Anand has won his WC titles fair and square. Before that he slugged it out in the candidates cycles. He has a zero tantrum personality, which distances him from fans.
It appears, his current chess style is to go for either decisive advantage through short combinations, or go for equality. His favourite chess player being Tal also indicates this. However with a crowd of talented and prepared opponents, going for long periods of incremental advantage in a game may be expedient.
1 year 6 months ago
I don't think people are criticizing Anand's career, but his tournament play of the last 2 years or so. Anand of course deserves the WC title, and he is one of the strongest players in history. He very well may be past his prime, though, considering his lack of teeth in the Gelfand match, and his apparent disinterest in winning tournaments he plays in. There is nothing wrong with that, of course, all players fizzle out eventually. But nothing will take away the fact that in his prime he was one of the modern greats, and that he is multiple times over a World Champion.

Cute but...
This dress runs small (and is all cotton). You will need to size up and you will need to wear a slip (fabric is thin) even with the dark denim color.
Great dress
A great classic dress that's lightweight and easy to wear. I like that it looks good with and without a belt. Gives me options. Love this dress.

Too thin
This is a classic style. The denim on this shirt dress is very thin. The sleeves on the one I ordered were too large and too long. I am not keeping it.

I have a wide foot. One reviewer said her foot was also wide so I tried them. I usually order a ten, but they said to order a size lower for half size and I did. I ordered 2 pairs. I was a little worried because one reviewer said the straps weren't even. Both of my pairs were fine. I like them because they don't have the strap between the toe. They are comfortable

Comments about NeoCell™ Fish Collagen + HA:
These capsules are awesome because they are much smaller then the other brands of collagen pills( that a horse would have trouble swallowing)and there is no bad smell.
The dosage is 2 capsules twice a day on a empty stomach. So far I haven't experienced any stomach problems.

Comments about NeoCell™ Fish Collagen + HA:
I've been taking this product daily since I ordered. I'm not sure of the effects on my skin yet, since I have good skin to begin with thanks to my mother. I'm going to give it a month and pay attention to any visible changes. Taking 2 capsules twice daily does make the product a bit costly, but [$]/month might be worth it!

Topics: catalogs, J.C Penney, smartphone, social media
The other day J.C. Penney officially killed off its remaining catalogs, a harbinger, I think, of other funerals to follow.
Just 10 months after axing its twice-yearly Big Book, J.C. Penney Co. is now getting out of the catalog business altogether.
In 2011, J.C. Penney will cease publishing about 25 other specialty catalogs, says a spokeswoman. Instead, J.C. Penney, No. 16 in the Internet Retailer Top 500 Guide, will publish more direct marketing pieces such as its 43-page "Little Red Book" and "Matter of Style" publications that showcase current merchandise such as men's and women's fashions available in the chain's 1,107 department stores in the U.S. and Puerto Rico and online at JCP.com.
"We will no longer be publishing our specialty catalogs which were being used as 'look books' by our customers to see what was new in the stores or online," the spokeswoman says. "We have always served our customers by how they want to shop and now and in the future that's online and in stores."
The fact that J.C. Penney built a $1.5 billion e-commerce operation using its catalog and direct market business speaks volume about how valuable catalogs were to J.C. Penney in the past.
But going forward, J.C. Penney, which didn't say how much money it would save annually by ceasing to publish catalogs, will use its print publications as targeted direct marketing pieces to reach specific groups of customers, the spokeswoman says. "We will use print materials to drive web and store traffic," she says.
As the web continues to escalate even more as the retailing industry's growth engine, I predict other retailers will kill off their print catalog—or at least scale back on the size and frequency of their publications.
Today, most shoppers don't pick up the phone to place a catalog order or clip out the order form, fill it out and mail it along with a check to the retailer. If they browse a catalog at all, they mark the page and then jump on their computers—or smartphones—to place their orders.
These days a lot of direct marketers should think of how to use their catalogs to drive sales to the web rather than as a channel unto itself. J.C. Penney, which earlier this summer announced plans to rebuild its e-commerce platform and achieve $1 billion in new web sales over the next four to five years, will now use the web to drive e-commerce revenue among younger buyers aged 25 to 34. "We knew we had to transition out of the catalog business to much more of a digital format," CEO Myron Ullman told attendees last week at the Goldman Sachs Retail Conference in New York. "As we transition out of the catalog business it's not that we are getting out of print. We are transitioning from the catalog as essentially a static vehicle to really what we call 'find more,' which is print material that takes the consumer to the Internet or to the store."
I think what Ullman says is the way of the future for how smart retailers should use their print resources. Are catalogs dead? Not necessarily if marketers rethink how they plan and print catalogs in order to support e-commerce.
If, in the age of mobile commerce and social media, your organization is still all-consumed with printing and mailing catalogs, your book probably isn't dead. But it's likely to be on life support very soon.

ICs for Enhanced Handset User Experience
Download this Handset Ad
Analog Devices offers a comprehensive portfolio of innovative, high performance analog ICs specifically designed to extend today's consumer digital lifestyle to cellular handsets. more ...
Power the Ultimate Experience
Power Management for Wireless Devices
Power control is essential in a modern handset design, as integrated multimedia and control features continue to push power consumption while long standby and talk times need to be maintained. Analog Devices offers a range of specifically designed, high efficiency, integrated solutions requiring reduced component count and more compact cellular handset design.
High Efficiency, High Power, Feature-Rich Flash LED Driver for Mid- to High End Camera Phones
The ADP1653 is an ultracompact, high efficiency, 12 V boost converter, specifically designed and optimized for use in cellular camera phones. The ADP1653 consumes a mere 7.2 mm × 6.4 mm of board space while still offering high efficiency flash circuitry that can drive one string of high brightness LEDs up to 500 mA, as well as a separate indicator LED at lower currents up to 17 mA. This device employs a dual-mode interface, which can be set to I2C® or to a 2-bit logic interface. With both interfaces, the flash LED may be driven in torch or flash mode. The ADP1653 also offers a unique Tx masking feature intended to dynamically reduce the current of the flash LED in less than 50 µs, when the current of the power amplifier bursts in RF transmission. The ADP1653 integrates multiple safety features such as soft start, flash timeout, power NFET current limit, overthermal protection, and overvoltage protection. Small size, high efficiency, advanced programmability, and safety are just some of the key advantages of the new ADP1653 flash LED driver.
RF Power Detectors for 3G+ Communications
Third-generation communications systems utilize complex modulation schemes to provide increasing data rates. The resulting signals have large and changing crest factors (peak to average ratios). To avoid clipping of these signals, PAs must be operated in their linear region where they are less efficient and, thus, consume higher levels of power. Accurate power measurement and control will help extend the battery usage time as well as assure compliance to the local regulatory requirements, such as ETSI and FCC. Measuring the true power levels of complex waveforms can be very difficult. RMS power detectors are the best for this application as they measure the true rms power level of the signal. Log detectors and peak detectors are much more sensitive to crest factors and can introduce errors of 2 dB to 5 dB. Temperature stability is another factor since PAs will drift with time and temperature. Power detectors from Analog Devices exhibit minimal drift over the full �40°C to +85°C range. The two newest rms power detectors for handsets/mobile terminals from ADI are the ADL5500 and ADL5501.
Parallel Backlight Drivers
End users are demanding bigger, brighter, and thinner displays. The ADM8845 and ADM8843 charge-pump-based backlight drivers are designed for driving up to six and four white LEDs in parallel, respectively, while ensuring uniform brightness of a backlit LCD display. By individually monitoring each LED current, excellent matching performance is achieved. The ADM8843 and ADM8845 are also designed to maximize power efficiency by switching automatically between three charge pump modes based on the input voltage. For applications with severe height restrictions, the ADM8843 offers an ultrathin package height of 0.5 mm.

Lens Driver Optimized for Voice Coil Motor (VCM) Autofocus Camera Modules
The AD5821 lens driver is a single 10-bit DAC with 120 mA output sink current capability. It is designed to meet the requirements of autofocus (AF) applications in camera phones, camera modules, webcams, and PC cams. The IC operates from a single 2.7 V to 5.5 V supply and is controlled via a 2-wire (I2C-compatible) serial interface and has 1.8 V-compatible logic thresholds compatible with new digital cores.
Feature-Rich, Volume-Priced Video Buffer Reduces Power and Size for Portable Applications
The ADA4431-1 video buffer includes a standard definition video filter, automatic load detection, and a capless output stage. The device has a low quiescent current of 4 mA. The load detection feature turns on most circuitry the moment a cable is connected to the outputs. The charge pump reduces the need for a negative supply and eliminates the need for large ac coupling capacitors. This integrated product eliminates large passive filter networks, ac coupling, and the board space required to accommodate multiple components. It is available in a 24-lead LFCSP.
ADV7520NK: Low Power HDMI Transmitter with On-Chip Consumer Electronics Control (CEC) Support
The ADV7520NK is an 80 MHz High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) transmitter that is perfect for cellular handsets. The digital video interface contains an HDMI v1.3 and DVI v1.0 compatible transmitter and supports HDTV formats up to 720p/1080i. The ADV7520NK also supports the programmable AVI InfoFrames and x.v.Color™ features of HDMI v1.3. With the inclusion of HDCP, the ADV7520NK allows the secure transmission of protected content as specified by the HDCP v1.3 protocol.

Analog Devices offers design engineers a wide range of touch control and motion sensor solutions making it easy to add new features. Our technology enhances user interface and many motion-enabled applications for the ultimate user experience.
Touch Control ICs Enhance User Experience
For products with increasing feature convergence, finger-driven navigation enhances the user experience for both designers and consumers. The AD714x CapTouch® family of programmable capacitance-to-digital converters enables the design of innovative and robust touch control interfaces to replace mechanical switches in mobile handset devices. For single electrode capacitance sensors, the AD7147 provides highly accurate measurement and responsiveness. Featuring 13 capacitance inputs and femtofarad resolution, the AD7147 allows mobile electronics designers to implement a touch pad, scroll wheel, slider, or up to 36 buttons per device. The addition of integrated active shield technology on the AD7147 improves noise performance and allows designers the freedom to place the sensor farther away from the IC. The device also includes on-chip calibration algorithms that compensate for changes in temperature and humidity while ensuring that users with different finger sizes receive equally responsive sensor performance.
iMEMS Motion Signal Processing™
iMEMS® low power motion sensors can be used for numerous applications in cellular handsets, including enhanced user interface, situational awareness, gaming, tilt correction for compass-equipped phones, drop protection, camera image stabilization, and more. Recognized for its MEMS manufacturing technology and ability to combine MEMS sensor structures with signal conditioning circuitry, Analog Devices leveraged this expertise to reduce the power consumption of its ADXL3xx family of 3-axis motion sensors to a mere 180 µA at a supply voltage of 1.8 V. Available in a low profile 4 mm × 4 mm × 1.45 mm plastic lead frame chip scale package (LFCSP), iMEMS motion sensors are among the most reliable and smallest available today. Combined, these unique qualities allow designers to incorporate motion-sensing features into cellular handsets where space and power are at a premium.

Seasons Greetings from HAWS
Tis the week of Christmas,
And all thru HAWS
Many creatures are living –
Those with paws and claws.
Cats, dogs and small animals
Wait for adopters to come,
To take them into new
Loving, forever homes!
While you are celebrating
During this holiday season,
Reflecting on your joy,
(Maybe your pet is the reason?)
Vow to help HAWS give animals
A wonderful New Year...
Adopt ~ Learn ~ Join ~ Donate ~ Volunteer!
Seasons Greetings to all, and May 2011 be Purr-fectly Pawsome!
By the way - HAWS will observe special holiday hours:
Pets are a Gift, but Not as Gifts!
I had a rather shocking encounter with a relative over Christmas this year that really got me thinking.
Being that I've been an employee of HAWS for more than a dozen years, my family and friends long ago got used to my pro-animal welfare mantras and viewpoint. What a surprise, then, when one of them told me that they "were worried I was going to bring the kids a dog as a present this Christmas."
I think my jaw is still on the floor. Dumbfounded. Speechless.
HAWS, along with most rescues, strongly discourages the giving of pets as gifts for any occasion. In fact, it is an item on our application and is discussed during adoption counseling. A pet is a life that requires a lifetime commitment - it isn't a token, or a plaything to get bored with, or a trendy accessory - too often that is the way a gift is viewed.
Personally I believe very much in the importance of the no-pets-as-gifts policy, because I have seen first hand the number of animals that have been surrendered to HAWS because they were unwanted gifts. (If a person wants a pet, they should be part of the process of choosing that pet - their responsibility, their choice. Its only fair. Besides, who wants someone else picking their best friend for them? Chemistry is important in human-pet relationships, too.)
Not to mention, an employee of HAWS could very well be in jeopardy of losing their job if they participated in the giving of a pet as a gift. (See #2 and the number of surrenders...that is not a good way to ensure job security.)
Doing my best not to get on people's nerves or be preachy, maybe I haven't talked about this concept, let alone other animal welfare issues, strongly enough? Maybe it is okay to turn more moments with family and friends into "teaching moments."
I encourage everyone to have discussions - with family, friends, co-workers - about animal welfare issues. Working together we can all help HAWS achieve our goal for 2011 and beyond: using our reach as a humane society to create a whole Society that is Humane!
By the way - even tho the "giving season" is over, the need is not. We need you to Support the HAWS Cause the whole year through - with supply donations, monetary contributions, your time and talents.... Please stop by the shelter and join us!

The Centec CPB-XZ hoses is available in the two most common wall ends; Universal Connection and Direct Connection.

The Direct Connect hose (also called "superhose" hose) uses the standard 1.5" cuff with split metal band inserted into the inlet with a special set of pins on the hose to carry power to the hose from Direct Connect type inlets. Direct Connection inlets are often easy to identify by the two small holes just above or below the vacuum opening which are marked "120V" for the voltage.

Best Uses
- Fun Adornment
- Functional Tee-pee
This little hive and bees is a lovely natural enhancement for a garden and a non-invasive looking finials. Because they require thicker poles for mounting, they become quite functional as for planting vine-type plants. The only downside is that they are very fragile to install. There's a rubber stopper that slips over the bamboo. After breaking one bee, I discovered it was better to remove the stopper to install the bamboo and then gently push the bee back onto the stopper.

Both Sides of the Fence
A Tosa resident since 1991, Christine walks the dog, cooks but avoids housework, writes and reads, and enjoys the company of friends and strangers. Her job takes her around the state, learning about people's health. A Quaker (no, they don't wear blue hats or sell oatmeal or motor oil), she has been known to stand on both sides of the political and philosophic fence at the same time, which is very uncomfortable when you think about it. She writes about pretty much whatever stops in to visit her busy mind at the moment. One reader described her as "incredibly opinionated but not judgmental." That sounds like a good thing to strive for!
Watching the bad stuff
Watching really bad television is one of my former guilty pleasures.
I say former not because I've stopped watching. I've stopped feeling guilty.
Who's your mother?
When I was 17 my dear friend Sheina Lerman yanked me aside after watching an interchange with my mother.
"Why are you doing that?" she demanded.
Deja rhubarb
Last weekend I hiked a couple miles through the county grounds, stalking the rhubarb that still grows, despite all odds, behind the Eschweiler buildings. It's a lot more difficult than it was when I wrote about it here in my first blog entry in June 2006:
I pick bouquets of rhubarb from the abandoned garden plots . . . Pies, cakes, breads and muffins ensue. The world is good when there is rhubarb pie in it.
And that's how I discovered the disappearance of the tennis courts and emergence of silt fence markers across from Hansen Golf Course.
Bottom line, in case you don't know, is that a huge retention pond shaped like a reproducing amoeba will cover the old county nursery--one of the prettiest places in the county—behind the tennis court area. You may not have seen it because walking there has been perhaps a tad illegal. . .
How much has changed since then. The nursery is completely obliterated. I suppose traipsing is even more illegal now than it was then. Plastic fences in trash-bag black and orange mesh have been strung along the silt fence markers. And the roads have been dug out, their entries chained, to make it hard for the scavengers in SUVs to poach wild asparagus and domestic rhubarb. It all seems a little extreme.
Dinner at the Mekong Cafe
Friends Susan, Steph and I decided to skip McBob's fish fry during our latest Friday Night on North venture. McBob 's has been shaky in the fish quality control department since they expanded. Besides, we now have the chance to dine on "one magical river (with) three enchanted cuisines." The Mekong Cafe at 5930 W. North Avenue features food from Laos, Thailand, and Vietnam. Food maven Willard Romantini always tells me not to eat at a restaurant during the first three months, but in this location, if you wait that long the business might have vanished.
This one's a keeper. Despite being new and still under redecoration, the place is pleasant, our service was charming, and the food was good even before the owners have worked out the inevitable kinks in restaurant start-up. What a great addition to the Almost-Tosa restaurant scene!
Food frugality
Tosan Nancy Stohs, food editor at the Journal Sentinel, recently published food shopping tips from a financial counselor. And a good idea, now that food is going the way of gasoline, price-wise.
I can't match the financial counselor's $3 dinner/day/person . (And to tell you the truth, I don't believe she does it, either). But I'm getting better. I'm experimenting with my own approach, the $1.99 rule. Don't buy anything that costs more than $1.99 a pound at the grocery store.
Memorial Day is about remembering our better nature
The terribleness and grandeur of young people going off in waves to fight is the stuff myths are made of. No wonder the rhetoric of war is timeless and nonspecific. No wonder each war seems to blend into the ones before and the ones after.
Today's speech may have been President Bush's best Memorial Day speech yet. He remembered that the day was not about a particular political agenda but about something bigger.
The names of these honored are known only to the Creator who delivered them home from the anguish of war -- but their valor is known to us all. It's the same valor that endured the stinging cold of Valley Forge. It is the same valor that planted the proud colors of a great nation on a mountaintop on Iwo Jima. It is the same valor that charged fearlessly through the assault of enemy fire from the mountains of Afghanistan to the deserts of Iraq. It is the valor that has defined the armed forces of the United States of America throughout our history.
Voting with your genes
Maybe you thought people turned out to vote because they were passionate about a candidate. Or made rational decisions to vote regularly because their civics teachers convinced them that's what good citizens do. Or their parents trained them to vote.
Turns out your parents have something to do with it, but not because of the way they reared you.
Can Tosa seize a great opportunity?
I just bought my own home for more than it's worth, and I'm not too upset about it.
How did that happen? About two days after I'd closed on my mortgage refinance, the city's reassessment came through. I'd requested a new tax assessment, knowing that I couldn't possibly sell the house for what the city thought it was worth. The assessor's office responded promptly, without fuss, and the new assessment came it at just about what I'd thought it should -- some $40,000 less than the previous assessment and the real estate appraisal.

Business owners can easily recognize when their companies are not profitable or growing. But sometimes, it's difficult for them to figure out why.That's because obstacles to growth can be deep-rooted and difficult to confront. Or, they can appear to stem from operational issues when really, it's a lack of leadership or poor employee behavior that's the culprit.Often, leaders need help identifying—and acknowledging—the underlying behaviors that are holding their companies back.How do you determine if it's behavior and not operational or technical issues that are getting in the way?Frequently, employees and leaders at underperforming companies engage in the following negative behaviors:
1. Is there a sign in the kitchen reminding employees to clean up after themselves?2. Are there unclean dishes in the kitchen sink?3. Is there blame and excuses for why things are not getting done?4. Is the office/shop clean?5. Is toilet paper sometimes missing in the bathroom?6. Are the trash cans overflowing?7. Do people frequently show up late to meetings?8. Are people more focused on their cell phones in meetings?9. Do projects tend to run late and over budget?10. Are you constantly being surprised by problems the crop up daily/weekly?11. Do employees sometimes panic when things need to get done?12. Are Performance Reviews (if you have them) ineffective in shaping employee behaviors?Answering "yes" to any of these questions is a sign of an unaccountable culture. Answering yes to two or more means that you have some very big cultural issues.
