An Effective Web Designer Will Consult With You Regularly
Any web designer worth their salt will consult with their customer on a regular basis. It's important to remember that content is sometimes more important than flashy design. The more your web designer recognises your type of business and its clientele, the better it will be for your lead generation.
Because many people believe "contemporary is good" and they want something to "look" modern, this doesn't mean that their potential leads will take that belief on board. The most important thing for ANY business is conversion of lead to customer. The design can help with this, but most of the time it's based on what the business actually offers and what other people think or experience using that service.
Testimonials are an important part of any website design structure, so make use of any and every opportunity to impress you can. If content gets you conversions in your specific niche, then you need to use content to get them. If pictures and video is the way, then use those. It depends on the type of business you have and your web designer needs to be able to comply with the best methods of message to market as well as making something look good.
A good Pentyrch web designer will help with conversions
Web design is not just about the look of a site, but the inclusion of great content
An E-commerce Service Can Help Local Businesses Expand
Any good internet marketing service or web design service will also offer potential clients an e-commerce service too. With the outstanding growth in shopping online, it's a good idea to take advantage of this trend whenever possible.
There are those that argue the internet cannot take the place of a shop where you can "touch" the product. It's more than just seeing that is important. These points are valid and very true, but they don't follow the growing trends that appear to be taking over. The world is changing and many businesses need to evolve within those trends.
A good Internet Marketing Service, Marketing Agency and SEO service company is offering e-commerce as an option for local business owners to take advantage of these trends. It could be one of the best investments you make in your business, especially if you have popular products that are unique within your niche.
E-commerce is a great way to expand your business
E-commerce is more effective when highly targeted to specific markets
You can profit more using e-commerce in your business
A good e-commerce service is vital for your business to thrive online

Hello everyone,
I've just started to learn about how wireless network operates, and specifically 802.11 standard. I then thought about how the Linux works it out. In particular, normally when I want to send a ethernet frame over wired network, I use SOCK_RAW and "fill in the form", after which send() is invoked to write those bytes to the NIC.
However, wouldn't it be a problem with 802.11, since the frame header is of different form than Ethernet? How is it resolved then, or does the OS/wireless card do the transformation for me? Woudn't this be a problem with all applications that assumes Ethernet to be Data Link protocol?
Almost the same issue, but expressed differently: I've got a WinXP laptop, with Wireshark installed. The wireless card is Atheros something. When I try to sniff some packets from this interface, they turned out to be of Ethernet, so I'm totally lost on where the transformation happens.
Any experience? And thanks in advance.

Mention the name Jackson on Kaupapa Peninsula, and any local will nod sagely - then ask which one you're after. Jackson is a name that's been part of this community since 1844. Jackson's Wharf is a small coastal town about two hours from the nearest city. Local police sergeant Frank Jackson rules the community roost, and things around Jackson's Wharf are usually done his way. But when his hot-shot brother Ben moves his children back to the town, the sibling rivalry between the pair threatens to affect everyone around them. Even Though Jackson's Wharf is no longer on air, it is still a show that included many aspects of New Zealand culture, and showed us what it would be like to live in a small town.

On Saturday afternoon, May 18 2013, I completed my first Tough Mudder. Way back in the Fall of 2012, I think I saw a Twitter post from Jesse Noller talking about the race.
I spent half of 2012 working my way back into some sort of shape. I entered some races. 2 5K's (YWCA Race Against Hate and Turkey Trot), 1 10K (Geneva Trick or Trot) and an 8K (Run for Walk). With some good help and advice from my friend Brett, I was able to set consecutive PR's in each event. In March 2013, I busted 27:30 @ the PyCon 5K.
I figured I was ready for this race. And then it all kind of went to shit. My training got all jacked up in April due to illness, travel and work. I really didn't train much over the past two weeks. I really wasn't feeling my best going into this thing and really I was a bit freaked out since a couple of people who had run the race told me point blank, "Yeah you're fucked."
Well, I survived. I'll likely do the same race next year. Here's what I learned. Here's the course map.
1. Train, Train, Train and Train. You need some combination of distance and strength training. I knew I could hack the 12 miles, I knew that I would be screwed on the obstacles. It worked out that way pretty good. Distance wise I was fine, but the obstacles coupled with the running – not to mention the mud, the cold water – well, it messes you up. If my training didn't get so messed up, I think I had the right idea of lifting weights for 60 minutes and running for 60 minutes in the same session. You really need to get used to being fatigued and lifting and then running or vice versa because that's what it's like out there.
2. Trail Running is Different Than Treadmill or Smooth Paved Road Running. When I'm in a good training mode, I rack up 20-25 miles per week over three different runs. It's not a ton, but it's a fair amount and I find that it's just enough to keep me interested in running. The biggest thing about Tough Mudder is that it's 12 miles over a trail based course. This is *way* different than running on a road, treadmill or track. Mentally, trail running is tougher and you need to participate more actively (e.g. "Don't step in that hole. Watch those roots. Fuck, a rock! Dammit, mud, move to the side."). And on top of that because you're on uneven ground it's way more taxing on your core, hips and back. If you have a chance to run trails for a run per week – do it.
3. It's As Tough As Advertised; But Doable. I'm not going to lie, it's hard. I think mentally all week leading up to it, I was pretty sure I was going to die. And even when we got there I was very unsure of myself. Oh and then on the *very* first ditch jump I landed all ice skater like on my left leg hip and groin tweaked *immediately* like .1 mile into the course. Anyway, it was hard. The mile markers laugh @ you. You lose track of how many obstacles you've done. You wonder how the hell people run through this shit. But it was doable. See next point.
4. Do It With a Team of People. My team, Sorry for Partying, had 16 people on it. We naturally divided into the fit people = 5 and everyone else. The 5 jumped out ahead of us, but the core 11 stayed together and gutted out the whole course together. I was there to help my teammates over obstacles, to stretch out cramps, to fist bump after knocking out an obstacle or to pull someone out of the water. Doing it with a team of people made it a heck of a lot more fun. I still owe Corey and Ron for pulling my arse up over Everest.
5. Hydrate, Eat and Hydrate. I was only gripped by fear a single time during the race. On the "Ladder to Hell" obstacle (p.s. the one that Pvt. Gomer Pyle can't get over in "Full Metal Jacket"), I felt my left calf cramp up when I was 10 feet off of the ground. I had skipped a bunch of bananas between mile 2-3 which in retrospect was dumb. Hydrate, yes. But also consume calories. They had bananas and Cliff shot blocks (which I prefer over gels). Eat whenever you get a chance and drink a couple of glasses of water @ each stop.
6. If You Gotta Skip an Obstacle, Skip It. I skipped four obstacles in all. (a) Walk the Plank, (b) Hanging Tough, (c) Berlin Walls and (d) Underwater Tunnel. Each of these requires you to be a good swimmer. That, I ain't. See next point.
7. Be a Strong Swimmer. All of the obstacles have some notion of water but the three I skipped have deep water. I've been taking swimming lessons for awhile now, but still aren't balls confident I can get it done. That said while I did skip Hanging Tough, I did do the Funky Monkey and basically had to swim 25 yards across the obstacle.
8. Wear Light Shoes. I wore a pair of Asics Gel Neo 33′s that were over their mileage limit. They were broken in, comfortable, had been through 250+ miles of running. I knew this pair of shoes really well. Anyway, they were light and drained well. What I noticed is that your feet are covered, caked in mud and soaked. You want a pair of shoes with decent tread that drain well. Also, don't get attached to them. I donated my pair of shoes after the race.
9. Wear As Tight Fitting Stuff As Your Comfortable With. My team got Under Armour compression shirts and as I donned my while en route I thought, "Man this is tight." Well, the gear was perfect. The compression meant nothing got snagged on anything, water/sweat/mud all wicked and rubber away. Minimal chafing. I had a pair of CW-X compression shorts and some North Face Flash Dry running shorts as well. It all worked.
10. Gloves Might Work; They Didn't Work For Me. I felt like gloves would be a good idea and I can say that I think the best thing they did was keep my hands clean.
11. Obstacle Guide. Here's a rough guide to the obstacles and some tips, as best as I can remember them.
a. Arctic Enema – This is the trailer filled with ice. Don't ponder the jump. Don't ease in. JUMP! Jump as close as you can to the board. Go under. Get the hell out and start running.
b. Kiss of Mud – This is barbed wire above, mud below. Real simple, get on your belly, keep your butt down and start moving. Use your arms to pull you and your legs to push you. I was making jokes about how my High School football coaches would yell about people keeping their butt's down when coming out of a three point stance during this one.
c. Electric Eel – This is electrical shocks above you, mud below. Same as kiss of mud, get on your belly and go. Do, however, give yourself some room with the person in front of you. And find as good a path through the wires as possible.
d. Glory Blades – 9 ft walls at inverted 60 degree angles. This one's a pain. Have someone help boost you up, swing over and slide down.
e. Trench Warfare – These are long tunnels with left and right doglegs in them. Slide down and keep pushing forward. Little guys – smaller than 5′ 8″ – might be able to get into a crawling position, like I did, to move faster.
f. Walk the Plan – 15 ft dive into a muddy pond, plus a 25 yd swim. I skipped this one. But you dive and you swim. Make sure the area is clear below you.
g. Log Jamming – Over and under logs about 6x. This seems easier than you think, but then you realize that the lowest log is offset or set back from the top one. Basically, because it's deeper than the top log you cling onto it's way tougher to get over.
h. Wounded Warrior Carry – Carry a person 100 yards. Find someone roughly your size since you have to switch halfway through. Basically you're giving someone a piggyback ride – which I think is the most effective. Get a grip on them, get steady and take short quick steps. Breathe. Joke. Don't fall.
i. Hold Your Wood – Carry a large log about .5 miles. This is where having a team is key but pick people roughly the same height. Also find a suitable log. Don't pick a big one, if you can help it. Switch shoulders and sides regularly.
j. Ladder to Hell – 30 ft ladder climb. Go SLOW! You're about halfway through the obstacles now, and you're almost halfway in mileage. This is where you start to really decline in performance and feel. One leg at a time. Hold on tight as you swing over. Descend slowly once you know your feet are set and situated.
k. Hanging Tough – Ring cross over 25 yards. I skipped this one. Basically you need to be American Ninja during this one. I can't even comprehend how people make it across this one.
l. Fire Walker – Jump over some ripping hot burning coals and fire into a deep ass pool. Find a segment that isn't muddy. Some people were slipping on the jump off points and got burned. Don't do that – this is real fucking fire.
m. Dong Dangler – Rope suspended over cold ass water. Get as deep as you can, swing your legs over, lock them and use your hands to pull you across. I made it halfway before I ate it in the water. At that point, grab the rope/wire/whatever and start wading to shore.
n. Berlin Walls – Scale a 10 ft wall. I wasn't up for this as I was cramping like crazy and had just run 1+ miles uphill in a fucking muddy hell that should have counted as an obstacle in it of itself. Basically, you need someone to help boost you up. Careful coming down.
o. Mud Mile – 300 yards + of mud trenches and mud hills. Look for the hills where previous people have dug in and made natural footholds. Slide down the hills into the trenches to save energy.
p. Dirty Ballerina – Jump over multiple deep ass trenches. Start running like Mario – not that run, the speed run! – and jump then don't fucking stop until you get to the end. Some people in front of me were trying to Frogger this obstacle and because you have no momentum when you stop the islands don't allow you any running start.
q. Underwater Tunnels – Bob under four sets of barrels in deep ass water. Skipped this one too. Deep water, not a good swimmer.
r. Twinke Toes – 50 ft balance beam with four steps in the middle over cold ass water. I fell three steps into my run, so I don't know shit about this one. If you do get wet, go on the side of the beam that has a ladder, much easier to get out of the drink.
s. Boa Constrictor – Downward into water drainage pipe and then up. This was similar – for me – to trench warfare. For little people these obstacles are easier since you can get into a crawling-like position on the way up. My teammates who were 6′+ said that this was the worst obstacle on the course – going up was near impossible and all upper body pull.
t. Funky Monkey – Monkey bars going up and them monkey bars going down. Yeah, again, over cold ass water that's deep. I think I kind of grabbed the first monkey bar and then ended up in the drink. Was able to swim – badly – across and not die. No advice on this. Basically, do pull ups and don't use gloves.
u. Everest – Greased up half pipe that is easily 25 ft tall. Sprint, sprint, sprint and then jump up to the people helping you. Don't stop, keep sprinting. This one, I failed the first time around. The second time, I only succeeded because two of my teammates pulled up my arm and grabbed my fucking leg.
v. Electroshock Therapy – Running through electrodes to the end. Let the person in front of you get ahead. Find a path, keeps your arms in front of you and keep fucking moving.

While Augie Nieto's presence on last weekend's MDA Telethon was nothing less than inspirational, I couldn't help feeling more sad than I did when I saw him last year on TV or even in person at the IHRSA show last March.
Augie, whose battle with ALS the past few years has now cost him the ability to speak, appeared twice on the telethon, once with Bally CEO Mike Sheehan, and another time with his wife, Lynne, and his son, Austin. Last year, the audience gave Augie a standing ovation. Although this year's audience gave Augie and his family a warm reception, the response didn't seem quite the same for some reason.
Maybe it had something to do with Augie's deteriorating health, although I can personally attest that he can still e-mail with lightning speed. Augie wrote a response to me recently regarding an upcoming story on Jack LaLanne. He then wrote another e-mail inquiring if we were going to do a story about Augie's Quest, his fundraising machine. Augie's Quest has now raised almost $20 million since 2006. (For more information, log onto Augie's Web site.)
On the telethon, John Ondrasik of Five for Fighting sang a song about Augie—the same song he sang at Augie's Bash in San Francisco during the IHRSA show in March. My favorite line in the song is about how Augie "caught Lou Gehrig rounding third one day, now he's leading the whole team."
The battle to fight ALS—Lou Gehrig's disease—is most definitely now the quest for Augie's cure.

|Pic of Sandra Dee with vintage bike from wonderful blog Rides A Bike
As a big fan of second hand bikes I am delighted to have Going Going Bike write a guest post for us imparting their knowledge on buying a vintage ladies bicycle.
Buying a second hand bicycle is really satisfying. Such a bicycle gives so much better value than a new bike. A new bicycle can lose as much as 50% of their value the moment they leave the shop.
Buying a used bike also appeals because it is sustainable and, if you choose a vintage bike, results in you getting a bike with some classic, retro appeal. It is worth noting that buying a vintage bicycle is also often a better idea than buying a new low-cost modern bicycle.
Golden age of bikes
The golden era for vintage women's bikes is from the late 1950s onwards. Such bikes are still very rideable and still provide much of the basic design elements used in modern versions of women's bikes. As a rule any bike that was built from the late-1950s to mid-1980s is considered as being very collectable. With most bikes from that period you are still able to find suitable components if you need to make repairs or restore them.
Bike types
Women's bikes on the vintage scene are split into two types. More commonly seen is the Mixtie frame bike. The Mixtie is essentially a light utility road bike for women with some even coming with dropdown handlebars. Mixtie frames can be easily converted to single speeds making them very sought after particularly with the single speed/fixed gear craze. 70s and 80s Raleigh and Peugeot bikes are good brands to look out for if you purchase a Mixtie due to the ease of finding suitable component replacements or adding newer more modern components.
Town/Dutch/utility vintage bikes are much the modern vogue and there is a clutch of manufacturers offering new bikes in this market. Sadly many of the old UK brands such as BSA no long exist as do bikes from this period. Pashley still operates in this market with its modern interpretations of its classic bikes of the past but finding a classic vintage model is hard to find. More prevalent are brands from the Netherlands, Germany and Sweden.
Where to buy
The women's second hand market is seeing a bit of a renaissance with more women now cycling. Apart from sources such as Going Going Bike (click here for our vintage category), there are the usual places such as eBay and Gumtree. Markets are also a good idea. A new business, The Bike Spoke, which specialises in Vintage bikes, recently sold all its vintage ladies bikes stock at the Hackney Homemade market. In each case, given the nature of it being an old bike, it is actually going to inspect the bike before you buy. Pricing can be very difficult to determine but you generally get a feel for what a bike is worth by looking online or going to bike markets.
Once you had decided on a bike, we have some basic guidelines on buying a second hand bike.
Check the bike's condition
Second-hand bikes come in all sorts of conditions and it is worth noting specific things to look out for when it comes to vintage bikes.
Always inspect the state of the brakes, derailleur system, headset, wheel spokes, hubs and whether the frame itself is structurally sound. Superficial marks or scratches on a frame shouldn't be a problem, but avoid a frame or fork that is bent, dented or cracked. Similarly if there is rust on the frame, scratch with a finger nail to see how deep it is. Also look out for rusty worn chains and cogs.
Be prepared to pay for certain repairs or updates to a vintage bike. It is important to factor this into the purchasing price when buying.
Size is key
When it comes to a vintage bike, the actual size of the bike is of less of an importance given the step through nature of the bike frame. What is important to note though is that the feel rider has a comfortable upright riding position, whereby they can reach the handlebars without stretching unduly. Best fit should therefore be determined by arm reach Women have shorter arms but longer legs relative to men so bear this in mind when choosing the right sizes bike. Typically vintage frames are measured in inches as opposed to centimetres with sizes going up from 17.5 inches to 22 inches typically. For a good fit, measure your inside leg measurement and as a general guide compare this against the following measurements:
A 17.5 inches frame will fit a lady with a 24,5"-28,5" inside leg measurement
A 20 inch frame will fit a lady with a 27"-31,5" inside leg measurement
A 22 inch frame will fit a lady with a 30,5"-38 inside leg measurement
Ask questions of the seller
Find out how long the seller owned the bike or if the bike has any problems in the past. Has the bike been stored indoors in the dry, or outside in the damp? If you're buying the bike from a second-hand bike store you may be able to get a warranty for any problems the bike may develop in the first few months.Going Going Bike, is the UK's leading online marketplace for buying and selling bikes. However it's not just about trading. They also keep their rapidly growing community of cyclists amused with blogs, news and useful features.

TRAVEL BUMMER: While a week of adventure has a bouquet of highs and only the rarest of lows, if all goes well, just about every traveler knows what it is like to arrive at something just as it is ending. You've likely been there, so you know exactly what we mean: You're pulling up to Old Faithful, in Yellowstone National Park, ready to see the geyser in action, but alas, the crowd is dispersing. You've missed the show and need to get back on the road. If only you'd been ten minutes earlier, well... You and the powerful sight would have had a profound path-crossing. In fact, no traveler ever wants to see a crowd walking away from what they've arrived to see, because that means one thing: It's done, whatever "it" happens to be. So when we say to you now, here, and with some urgency, that the waterfalls of Yosemite Valley are doing their powerful best and are flirting with peak, H20-hurtling performance, then you know time is very much of the essence. Early May doesn't last forever, nor does spring, and one of the most celebrated sights of the season will soon go back to its normal, still-spectacular self.
SPEAKING OF FALLS... the "extensive renovation" of Yosemite Lodge at the Falls wrapped in April. The "$10 million dollar multi-phased refurbishment of the guest rooms and lobby" employ the colors of nature and "eco-friendly materials." Renewable hickory saplings were used for much of the furniture and the bathroom went with amenity dispensers (not every hotel everywhere is yet on board, but call the amenity dispenser a fact of the future). Head for the valley to check out the water show, but swing by the lodge to see what a national park-style gussy-up looks like.

Some CC fans . . .
I've recieved 10-15 emails from Colorado College fans complaining that I took a couple cheap shots at Tigers freshman goalie Richard Bachman. That couldn't be further from the truth. Truth is, I've written a ton on this kid already and personally, I think he's a great guy with a excellent future in hockey.
Obviously, these CC people don't know me and read me much. And they probably automatically assume I'm pro-DU because I live in the Denver-area and that, as a paper, we primarily write about DU, because, after all, we are The Denver Post.
Truth is, I enjoy covering all aspects of Front Range college hockey, and I'm just looking out for the best story, and the first place I look is DU. After all, CC and AFA have a local paper; whereas the Pioneers' local paper is us. Still, many times during the 1990s CC was dominant under coach Don Lucia, and I wrote so many Tigers stories I got labeled a "traitor" from some DU folks. My response was that we're a state-wide paper and the we'll go with the best story, especially when it's better than the local angle.
Speaking of "traitor," that's a word CC people didn't like when I used it on Bachman, who grew up in Highlands Ranch. In Friday's DU-CC series advance, I wrote that some DU fans consider Bachman a traitor, considering he's one of the few Denver-area blue-chip kids to play at CC. (I think the last scholarship kid to do so was forward TJ Tanberg, who grew up in Littleton and played in the Springs in the 1990s.)
In hindsight, I would tweak the sentence, going with "UNINFORMED DU fans consider Bachman a traitor." That's it. Because that's the truth. He can't be a traitor if he was never given an opportunity to play for his hometown team.
Bachman was recruited early by DU, but the Pioneers ultimately went with Marc Cheverie, a Canadian kid that has yet to play as a freshman. Bachman wanted to play close to home and chose CC, which had recruited him all along. Good for him, and great for CC. But bad for DU, which now has to beat its rival by scoring on one of the country's top young netminders.
Alas, therein lies the second beef from CC fans. In Friday's game story from Colorado Springs, I introduced Bachman and added … "a DU reject" … which I meant more as a negative on DU besides stating the truth, as tough as it may be. C'mon people, Bachman and CC hammered senior goalie Peter Mannino and DU 5-1 … a DU reject beats DU!
Yes, he was overlooked, rejected, whatever, from DU, but it turns out that might have been a mistake (although, to be fair, the only reason Cheverie isn't playing is because Mannino might be the best in the business.)
Some DU fans, thanks, I'm sure, to the fun-loving stirrer-uppers at letsgodu.com, chanted "DU reject" during Saturday's game at Magness Arena. Apparently Mr. and Mrs. Bachman heard the so-called insult and blamed it on me.
Mr. and Mrs. Bachman will hear far worse things as Richard's career goes along. He's a goalie. What, should Mannino's parents be outraged at CC fans labeling their fine Italian boy a sieve? No, because a reporter didn't throw it out there. Well, a so-called DU traitor (by fans) and DU reject (meant as a back-door compliment) is more accurate than Mannino being a sieve, right?
Still, out out of respect for being the parents of a star freshman goalie, I've responded via email to the Bachman's through some of their friends, basically explaining all of the above.
I also spoke with Richard after Saturday's game, and he chuckled at all the backlash. He read my stuff the way it was intended, so for you CC fans, lighten up about me hurting his feelings.
I decided to blog this issue for several reasons. First, to set the record straight about a kid I admire. Second, to promote my blog … after all, if you want to throw me under the bus for this, I'd rather you do it on my blog, for the world to see, and maybe check out the previous blogs I've done on Bachman and other Front Range players. — MC

Welcome to PyPy
PyPy is a fast, compliant alternative implementation of the Python language (2.7.13 and 3.6.9). It has several advantages and distinct features:
Speed: thanks to its Just-in-Time compiler, Python programs often run faster on PyPy. (What is a JIT compiler?)
"If you want your code to run faster, you should probably just use PyPy." — Guido van Rossum (creator of Python)
Memory usage: memory-hungry Python programs (several hundreds of MBs or more) might end up taking less space than they do in CPython.
Compatibility: PyPy is highly compatible with existing python code. It supports cffi and can run popular python libraries like twisted and django.
Stackless: PyPy comes by default with support for stackless mode, providing micro-threads for massive concurrency.
As well as other features.
Want to know more? A good place to start is our detailed speed and compatibility reports!

Earlier this week Apple announced that the Fair Labor Association would begin inspections of the working conditions at the Chinese factories that make products such as the iPad and the iPhone.
Wednesday the non-profit labor rights organization already had an initial report and there was some good news for Apple.
From a history of suicides to harsh barrack style living conditions, the Cupertino-based technology company has come under fire in recent years for notoriously difficult conditions at several of the factories it contracts with to build its products.
The association's president, Auret van Heerden, said while it was too early to come to conclusions on Apple's top eight suppliers, from what he has seen so far the conditions are not as bad as other manufacturing facilities in China.
"The facilities are first-class; the physical conditions are way, way above average of the norm," he told Reuters. "I was very surprised when I walked onto the floor at Foxconn, how tranquil it is compared with a garment factory. So the problems are not the intensity and burnout and pressure-cooker environment you have in a garment factory. . It's more a function of monotony, of boredom, of alienation perhaps."
At the same time reports surfaced that Chinese workers who build Apple's iPad make only about $8 per unit. Forbes' Tim Worstall is quick to try and put that glaring number in perspective.
He said that "boredom and alienation" could be partly to blame for some of the suicides at plants such as Foxconn.
Van Heerden is visiting the Chinese factories to prepare for a deeper audit by his organization.
The audit will involve several unannounced trips to the different factories and Apple and its employees are not allowed to accompany more than 30 association employees who will visit the different factories.
Van Heerden said said his organization would conduct interviews with 35,000 employees of the different factories over the next three weeks.
The employees will be asked a series of questions that will include how they were hired; if they were given contracts they understood; the condition of their dorms; if complaints are acted upon; their emotional well being and more.
Apple CEO Tim Cook has made changing the perception of how the workers who make his company's products are treated a top priority of his new tenure at 1 Infinite Loop.
He sent an email to all Apple employees last week telling them that the company cared about all its employees.
Cook has also tried to change Apple's perception as a non-charitable company by implementing an employee donation-matching program. Something his predecessor was not interested in -- at least publicly.

Let $\mathbf C(t)$ be the field of rational functions and let $\overline{\mathbf C(t)}$ be an algebraic closure. Let $G$ be the Galois group of $\overline {\mathbf C(t)}$ over $\mathbf C(t)$.
Let $\rho:G \to GL_d(\mathbf Q_\ell)$ be a Galois representation.
Is there a useful notion of "unramified" at $x$, where $x$ is a point of $\mathbf P^1_{\mathbf C}$?
I'm trying to mimick the arithmetic situation (replacing $\mathbf C(t)$ by $\mathbf{Q}$ and $x$ by a prime number $p$), but this gives me that $\rho$ is unramified everywhere. Does anybody have any suggestions? I'd really be interested in knowing whether there is a useful notion of ramification in this setting.
Here's what I would like such a notion of ramification to satisfy.
Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety (say of general type) over $\mathbf{C}(t)$ which has a smooth projective model over $\mathbf{A}^1$, but not over $\mathbf{P}^1$. Then, I would like the associated Galois representation (via etale cohomology of $X_{\overline{\mathbf C(T)}}$) to be unramified at all $x$ in $\mathbf{A}^1$ and to be ramified at $\infty$.

Are There Two Wills in God? Yes.
If you've never before heard about the existence of two wills in God, I recommend reading John Piper's article, "Are There Two Wills in God?" (which is also an appendix in the book The Pleasures of God).
In essence, what the doctrine states is that there are... well... two wills in God. The first will is his will of command (or as Edwards says below, "law"). This is expressed through God's revealed desires for people, desires such as "Thou shalt not kill," or "You shall love your neighbor as yourself."
The second will is his will of decree, which is the will by which God brings to pass all that actually happens, whether it accords with his will of command or not. This is also known as his secret will, since what God intends to do in any one event is unknowable to us, except for what he reveals through prophecy.
Here is the entirety of Jonathan Edwards' Miscellanies #7 (reformatted a little by me,), which he wrote in defense of this notion of two wills:
The Arminians ridicule our distinction of the secret and revealed will of God, or more properly expressed, our distinction between the decree and law [of God], because we say he may decree one thing and command another; and so they say we hold contrariety and contradiction in God, as if one will of his contradicted and was directly contrary to another.
But however, if they will call this a contradiction of wills, we do certainly and absolutely know there is such a thing, so that it is the greatest absurdity to dispute about it.
We and they [know it was] God's secret will that Abraham should not sacrifice his son, but yet his command was to do it.
[We] do certainly know that God willed that Pharaoh's heart should be hardened, and yet that the hardness of his heart was his sin.
We do know that God willed that [the] Egyptians should hate God's people. Psalms 105:25, "He turned their heart to hate his people and deal subtilely with his servants."
We do know that it was God's will that Absalom should lie with David's wives. 2 Samuel 12:11-12, "Thus saith the Lord, Behold, I will raise up evil against thee out of thine own house, and I will take thy wives before thine eyes and give them unto thy neighbor; and he shall lie with thy wives in the sight of this sun. For thou didst it secretly, but I will do this thing before all Israel and before the sun."
We do certainly know that God willed that Jeroboam and the ten tribes should rebel.
The same, we know, may be said of the plunder of the Babylonians; and other instances might be given. The Scripture plainly tells us that God wills to harden some men (Romans 9:18), that Christ should be killed by men, [etc.].

Well, the fabulous people at Calloway's let me return the sad dead flowers and replace them with pretty LIVE flowers! FOR FREE! I'm a customer for life now. I think that is really good business!
I was really appreciative, because flowers can be a big investment sometimes!
I thought these pansies were a goner, but they came back to life with a little water and sun!
Speaking of flowers, my friend and former college roommate, Amy, gave me an orchid for my birthday. I think it's so pretty! There is something so sophisticated about an orchid. I feel pretty mature now!
Thankfully she balanced the sophistication with some PEEPS! yum! Hopefully the orchid will last longer than the peeps! Thanks Amy!

PHILADELPHIA — Moments after Chip Kelly"s plane landed, he was handed a new Eagles visor and received a warm greeting from fans gathered at the airport.
Welcome to Philadelphia, Coach.
The Eagles hired Kelly on Wednesday, just 10 days after he decided to stay at Oregon. The 49-year-old Kelly, known as an offensive innovator, becomes the 21st coach in team history and replaces Andy Reid, who was fired on Dec. 31 after a 4-12 season.
He"ll be introduced at a news conference Thursday at 1:30 p.m. EST at the Eagles" practice facility.
"The challenge is what I was excited about and that"s why I came," Kelly told a group of reporters upon landing in Philly. "I was sold on the Eagles the first time I met them, it was my ties to Oregon that made it hard. But the Eagles are the Eagles. This is the NFL.
"My dream is to just win, and with the Eagles, this was the best opportunity for me to win. I never thought a long time ago that I was going to be able to coach in the NFL but I"m excited about the opportunity."
General manager Howie Roseman gave Kelly the white Eagles visor, the trademark hat he wore at Oregon. Kelly then got a glimpse of what this team means to this city.
Not only were Roseman and president Don Smolenski waiting for him on the runway — they arrived with a police escort — there were fans, decked out in green, waiting outside on a cold, dreary night.
"I know it"s a rabid fan base," Kelly said. "I hope they don"t boo me. It"s an exciting time and I"m ready to get to work."
Kelly, who was 46-7 in four years at Oregon, interviewed with the Eagles, Cleveland Browns and Buffalo Bills in a two-day span after leading the fast-flying Ducks to a victory over Kansas State in the Fiesta Bowl Jan. 3.
The Eagles are known to have interviewed 11 candidates, including two meetings with Seahawks defensive coordinator Gus Bradley. All along, Kelly was thought to be Philadelphia"s first choice in a long, exhaustive process that took many twists.
"Chip Kelly will be an outstanding head coach for the Eagles," owner Jeffrey Lurie said in a statement. "He has a brilliant football mind. He motivates his team with his actions as well as his words. He will be a great leader for us and will bring a fresh energetic approach to our team."
On the day he fired Reid, Lurie appeared to be describing Kelly when he said he wanted to find a "real smart, forward-thinking coach" who is "strategic, a strong leader, very comfortable in his own skin."
The enigmatic Kelly reportedly was close to signing with the Browns after a long interview Jan. 4. He met with the Eagles for nine hours the next day, setting up a soap-opera scenario in which the Eagles were competing with Browns CEO Joe Banner, their former president and longtime friend of Lurie who left the organization after a falling out. But that roller coaster ended when Kelly opted to remain — temporarily — in Eugene, Ore.
The Eagles interviewed two other high-profile college coaches — Penn State"s Bill O"Brien and Notre Dame"s Brian Kelly. Both elected to stay with their schools.
Bradley was considered by many to be the leading contender, though former Cardinals coach Ken Whisenhunt and former Ravens coach Brian Billick were in the mix.
That all changed when Kelly had a change of heart.
Kelly built Oregon into a national powerhouse in a short time. The Ducks went to four straight BCS bowl games — including a bid for the national championship against Auburn two seasons ago — and have won three conference championships.
Kelly originally went to Oregon in 2007 as offensive coordinator under Mike Bellotti. Before that, he was offensive coordinator at New Hampshire, where he started devising the innovative hurry-up offense the Ducks are known for now.
Oregon finished last season 12-1. The team was ranked No. 1 and appeared headed for another shot at the national championship until a 17-14 loss to Stanford Nov. 17.
Ducks athletic director Rob Mullens said Wednesday that Kelly called him at 7:15 a.m. PST to tell him he had changed his mind: "He wasn"t sure if that opportunity would present itself again, so he felt this was the right one at the right time."
Mullens now faces a coaching search amid recruiting season.
"I"ve turned the page," Mullens said. "I was surprised when I got the call this morning, but as the leader of this organization, my focus is on moving forward and that"s what we"re doing. I"m laser focused on what"s next, and that"s finding the right fit to lead Oregon football."
It"s unknown whether the possibility of NCAA sanctions based on Oregon"s use of recruiting services factored into Kelly"s reversal. He indicated in Arizona that he isn"t running from anything.
"We"ve cooperated fully with them," he said. "If they want to talk to us again, we"ll continue to cooperate fully. I feel confident in the situation."
Kelly doesn"t have any pro coaching experience, but aspects of his up-tempo offense are already being used by New England and Washington.
The Eagles fired Reid after two forgettable years. A late flurry brought the team to an 8-8 finish last season, but this season, Philadelphia endured an eight-game losing streak, and dropped 11 of its final 12. A 3-1 start soon washed away, and Reid"s 14-year tenure ended not long after. Within a week, Reid was Kansas City"s new coach.
Still, Kelly has tough shoes to fill. Reid won more games than any coach in franchise history and led the Eagles to nine playoff appearances, six division titles, five conference championship games and one Super Bowl berth.
Kelly and the Eagles have the No. 4 overall pick in the draft as well as some talented players on offense who could fit his scheme. Running back LeSean McCoy and receivers DeSean Jackson and Jeremy Maclin seem like ideal matches. Quarterback Nick Foles, however, isn"t.
"I"ve never run the zone read," Foles said after the season. "I"m more of a dropback guy. I"ve been under center. I"ve been in the gun. If I can adapt, I want to. But I"m not a zone-read quarterback. Some people are gifted with different things. That"s just not one of my skill sets. I can work on the speed in the offseason and get better with that. But I"ve always been a dropback guy in the pocket. I"ve been able to make plays on my feet throwing the ball or running for a first down."
On the other hand, Michael Vick could be perfect. But it"s unlikely the Eagles would want to pay the $16 million they"d have to shell out for an injury-prone quarterback, who will be 33 next season.
Kelly had high praise for Foles after Oregon beat Arizona 56-31 in September 2011.
"I"ll tell you what; I"m glad Nick Foles is graduating," Kelly said at that time. "I catch myself watching him in awe sometimes. Nick is a hell of a football player. That kid"s a warrior. He"s as good as anyone in the country."
Others interviewed by Philadelphia were former Bears coach Lovie Smith, Atlanta assistants Mike Nolan and Keith Armstrong, former Broncos offensive coordinator Mike McCoy and Bengals offensive coordinator Jay Gruden.
The first Eagles to react to Kelly"s hiring on Twitter were defensive players.
Defensive end Brandon Graham wrote: "Happy to have Chip Kelly!! Now it"s time to get to work!"
Safety Kurt Coleman wrote: "Welcome Chip Kelly to the Eagles family. Can"t wait to see what he brings to the team in 2013!"
As he walked by the fans at the airport, Kelly, dressed in jeans and a sweat shirt, stopped to sign some autographs and share some laughs with the faithful.
It indeed was a long journey. But if Wednesday is any indication, Kelly appears to fit right in with Philadelphia.

Recruiting notebook: Gavin McHenry of Chaparral found a fit at Air Force
Air Force wasn't Gavin McHenry's first Division I offer. But it turned out to have the most impact.
McHenry, a Chaparral cornerback who committed to the Falcons last week, said he was initially skeptical about attending the service academy. But, after a series of visits, he learned more about the school, its campus, its traditions, and its football program. He came away impressed, and found the right fit.
"I had a wrong image of it," McHenry said. "After finding out what it was really about there, that just told me what I needed to know, and definitely won me over. Not only is it for the great football, but for the career opportunities in the future after I gradate."
A big part of McHenry's commitment, he said, was Air Force coach Troy Calhoun.

I need all available formats for web,print,vector preferred design would be ideal, etc.. I like letters of URL to be possibly 2D,3D, or beveled, with arrows thin but two colors with a metallic look possible.

University of Manchester at the end of July, according to the university.
One of Pennell's biggest tasks in his new job will be to ensure that technology at the university, one of Britain's biggest with 40,000 students, works to support the delivery of the Manchester 2020 Vision, a plan to make the institution one of the world's top 25 research universities by 2020.
That vision has a number of specific IT goals, including providing a high-quality study environment and "a responsive, flexible, robust and secure infrastructure for all services, taking advantage of public and private cloud solutions."
[ How one university got the jump on the digital revolution. Read Indiana University Models E-Textbook Success. ]
The plan also tasks Pennell and his team to support academic research through services relating to trends in scholarly publishing, bibliometrics and the storage, management and preservation of research outputs. They will be required to provide a sustained research data management infrastructure supporting the whole data life cycle according to researchers' needs as part of a wider strategy for e-infrastructure.
Sounds challenging, but Pennell has extensive experience in establishing and leading large IT organizations, plus he has a strong association with Manchester, where he graduated in mathematics. He was CIO of the Co-operative Group, also headquartered in Manchester, and director of technology for the Commonwealth Games in Manchester in 2002. He also was a management consultant for PricewaterhouseCoopers.
Pennell most recently was chief information officer at the London Organizing Committee of the Olympic and Paralympic Games, or LOCOG, which delivered the technology underpinning the last Olympics. On that project, his IT staff peaked at 6,000 people and involved 110,000 pieces of equipment, including 3,500 miles of cabling, 900 servers, 1,000 network and security devices, and 9,500 PCs.
Pennell's new employer, The University of Manchester, has existed in its current form only since 2004, when two much older institutions with roots back as far as 1824 merged to create it. The university's lineage includes 25 Nobel Laureates among past and present students and staff, the third-highest number of any single university in the U.K. It currently has four Nobel laureates on staff, more than any other British university.
Pennell's predecessor, Paul Harness, left in February to become director of information systems services at neighboring Lancaster University.

Mace Security International Signs Letter of Intent to Acquire a Wholesale Security Monitoring Company
HORSHAM, Pa. -- April 01, 2009
Mace Security International, Inc. ("Mace" or the ³Company²) (Nasdaq
Global:MACE) today announced that it signed a letter of intent to acquire a wholesale security monitoring company. Mace anticipates that it will sign a definitive purchase agreement within 30 days, and plans to consummate the transaction within 30 days after signing the definitive purchase agreement.
The wholesale monitoring company has a UL-listed monitoring center that maintains over 30,000 accounts. Mace will not disclose the name of the company until the definitive purchase agreement is signed.
"We are very excited about this future acquisition," said Dennis Raefield,
Chief Executive Officer and President of Mace Security International, Inc.
"As Mace previously announced, we are focused on revenue growth in our Security Segment. I announced a strategy in December 2008 that included Mace's goal to purchase a wholesale security monitoring company to complement our surveillance product line. This allows Mace¹s sales force to offer a new product to its Professional Dealers, and allows the Company to generate recurring monthly revenue from the monitoring service. We believe that offering a traditional third party monitoring service, plus advanced future remote-managed services, will increase our dealer loyalty and strengthen our position in the marketplace."
The letter of intent is subject to customary closing conditions. Although
there can be no assurance that this acquisition will ultimately close, the
Company is optimistic that the conditions will be satisfied.

Something that popped in to my head. If this is an open source project, there's no need to fall along company lines. So we could certainly support both the canon and nikon protocols. Going further though, is possible to support both at the same time ? I.e., pull together these, so that a Canon camera could remotely control a nikon and canon flash, both doing correct TTL ?
Is there enough overlap in the protocols to be able to bridge that gap ? Now that would be something novel that this project could do.

In the last article, we created a custom check-in policy using TFS SDK 11 for Java. In this article we will explore, how to debug / run that policy and then deploy it on a developer's machine.
Now that the coding of the check-in policy is over, let us see how to debug that. To debug a plugin, we have to create a Run Configuration. Open the Run configuration editor from Run menu.
Click the Eclipse Application and click on the New Run configuration icon. This action will create a configuration and open it for editing. Change the name to CP_Configuration. We can use the same configuration for Debug too from Run > Debug Configurations or you may as well create it as Debug Configuration. In addition to name change, also check the checkbox against the Plugin that I had created earlier (the check-in policy).
Now, when we click on the Run button (or Debug button if we are in Debug configuration), it starts another instance of Eclipse and allows us to Run or Debug the plugin. In this new instance, we can now check if the Check-in Policy is available and does it work or not. Open menu Help > Team Explorer Support.
In the property pages that appears, select Diagnostic Data tab and then under the node of Team Explorer, select Available Check-in Policies. In the list of check-in policies, we can see the newly created custom check-in policy for Code Review.
Clos these pages and select Team Foundation Server Exploring perspective. Then connect to a Team Project (in my case SSGS EMS) and from the settings page, select Check-in Policies. When you click on the Add button, it shows the newly created custom check-in policy.
Just select the newly created custom check-in policy and click OK. Code Review policy is shown as enabled.
To test that check-in policy, we will make a small change in the code of SSGS EMS team project.
Now when we attempt to check-in that pending change, check-in policy evaluation will fail and in the Policy Messages tab, it displays that Check-in is not allowed since Code Review check-in policy is not satisfied.
Now that we are satisfied that this check-in policy works, let us deploy it. After closing the second instance of Eclipse, export the check-in policy so that it can be deployed. First set the release version to 126.96.36.199 in the manifest (META-INF\MANIFEST.MF). Then select File > Export from menu.
In the wizard that started, select Plug-in development > Deployable Plugin and Features.
On the next page, check the checkbox against the created check-in policy plugin and then select the radio button to export it into an archive. Create a folder (D:\Java\Created Plugins) to hold the archives of the plugins that we selected, gave the name to the archive as 'Code Review Check-in Policy' and click on the Finish button. In the target folder, this plugin archive is created as a zipped archive. Now let us deploy it to the regular instance of Eclipse (not the one that is used for plugin development). Open the main folder of Eclipse and drill down to the folder named 'dropins' . The JAR that is in the.zip file that was created by the export wizard, is copied in this folder. Now we can Add the Code Review Check-in Policy from the settings
And if you try to check-in without associating the code review work item the policy gets evaluated and the warning is shown in the Pending Changes window, Policy warnings tab.
To create a TFS 11 Custom Check-in Policy, you need to follow these conditions:
1. Download and install
2. Add TEE 11 for Eclipse for Plugin Development too
3. Create a Plugin project
4. Add JAR that is provided in TFS SDK 11 as referenced library
5. Configure plugin with Dependencies and Extension Point
6. Extend the PolicyBase class in to plugin class.
7. Implement all overridable methods. Main logic of check-in policy should go in the Evaluate method
8. Trial Run or Debug can be done using Run / Debug configuration
9. Deploy the plugin by first exporting it in the archive and then copying that JAR in the dropins folder of Eclipse.

New Study Shows Majority Of Americans Against SOPA; Believe Extreme Copyright Enforcement Is Unreasonable
from the so-why-are-we-pushing-forward-with-it? deptOne of the talking points we've been hearing about SOPA from the lobbyists pushing to get it approved is that the majority of Americans are in favor of the bill, because they want to "protect" intellectual property or jobs. This has never made much sense, since SOPA doesn't protect jobs at all. It destroys them, by hindering one of the few parts of our economy that has been creating jobs -- new and small businesses, particularly in the tech community. Now, the same folks who brought you that incredibly in-depth study on media piracy in emerging markets, have come out with a new report revealing some of their latest research on infringement among Americans. There are a ton of useful data revealed here, but none more timely and key than the following:
56% of people surveyed oppose government involvement in blocking access to infringing material. This number increases to 64% when the term censor is used.Furthermore, when asked specifically if ISPs, social media sites and search engines should block access to infringing content if it also meant that some legal content would also get blocked (basically the definition of SOPA -- where even the defenders of the bill admit it will block some legal content), only 36% say that's an acceptable form of copyright enforcement.
In other words, a majority Americans are very opposed to the methods and impact of SOPA.
The study also found that, when compelling legal services are around, it can cause a massive decrease in the amount of content obtained through unauthorized means. This isn't a surprise. We've been pointing this out for a while now. And it again shows why SOPA is the exact wrong approach. Instead of actually decreasing infringement, it will increase the burdens and costs for the new businesses who provide those compelling new services.
- Only a slim majority of Americans (52%) support penalties for downloading copyrighted music and movies -- and limit this support to warnings and fines. Other penalties, such as bandwidth throttling and disconnection, receive much lower levels of support.
- Disconnection from the internet, in particular, is very unpopular, with only 16% in favor and 72% of Americans opposed.
- Among those who support fines, 75% support amounts under $100 per song or movie infringed -- hugely undershooting the current statutory penalties.
- For a majority of Americans (54%), due process in such matters requires a court -- not adjudication by private companies.
- Solid majorities of American internet users oppose copyright enforcement when it is perceived to intrude on personal rights and freedoms. 69% oppose monitoring of their internet activity for the purposes of enforcement. 57% oppose blocking or filtering by commercial intermediaries if those measures also block legal content or activity.
So why are so many in Congress so out of touch with the American public and so focused on passing a law that goes against the wishes of Americans? This is the question Congress should be answering at tomorrow's hearings. The report's author, Joe Karaganis, should be one of the witnesses testifying, rather than a bevy of industry representatives all trotting out unsubstantiated reasons for moving forward with SOPA.

LG preps 8Mp Viewty successor
Popular cameraphone to be updated?
Reports are coming in that LG has designed a successor to its Viewty cameraphone. The new handset has already been unofficially dubbed the Viewty II.
LG's GC900 could replace the existing Viewty
Officially called the LG GC900, the phone's specifications were captured by website New Mobile – which managed to snap a picture of the talker's specifications.
What technological treats are in store? For starters, the phone will be fully touch-operated using a 3in display with an auto-rotate capability. It's said to sport a "full WVGA" resolution - so possibly up to 800 x 480. The main menu will, unsurprisingly, be based on LG's 3D S-Class interface – as seen on the LG Arena - which guides you through features using a 3D cube.
You'll also be treated to an 8Mp camera – with manual and autofocus options - that works alongside a selection of tasty imaging treats, such as image stabilisation, face tracking, geo-tagging and a top ISO sensitivity of 1600.
Smile shot and blink recognition will also reportedly be included, while the phone should have 32GB of on-board storage.
Mobile internet will be possible courtesy of support for HSDPA 3G connections of up to 7.2Mb/s. Wi-Fi will also be present.
A launch date or price haven't been confirmed yet. ®

McAfee Positioned in the Leaders Quadrant for Secure Web Gateways in Gartner's Magic Quadrant
Recognized for Completeness of Vision and Ability to Execute
SANTA CLARA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- McAfee today announced that leading research firm Gartner, Inc. has positioned the company in the leaders quadrant in its "Magic Quadrant for Secure Web Gateways" as published on May 28, 2013*. Gartner's research examined leading companies offering Web gateway solutions that utilize URL filtering, malware detection and application control technology to protect organizations and enforce Internet policy compliance.
According to the report, "Leaders are high-momentum vendors (based on sales and mind share growth) with established track records in Web gateway security, as well as vision and business investments, indicating that they are well-positioned for the future. Leaders do not necessarily offer the best products and services for every customer project; however, they provide solutions that offer relatively lower risk." In order to be included in the report,vendors must provide all three components of a secure web gateway: URL filtering, anti-malware protection and application control capabilities.
"Our leaders position in the Magic Quadrant confirms the McAfee approach to securing the Web," said Pat Calhoun, general manager of the network security business unit at McAfee. "The McAfee Web Protection solution offers the advanced security, control and malware protection organizations need to take full advantage of the Web. Combined with the flexibility to have on premise or cloud-based Web protection with a single solution, McAfee Web Protection leads the way in lower total cost of ownership."
McAfee Web Protection Gateway delivers comprehensive security for all aspects of Web traffic, regardless of location or device. For user-initiated Web requests, McAfee Web Gateway first enforces an organization's Internet use policy. For all allowed traffic, it then uses multiple real-time techniques to analyze the nature and intent of all content and active code entering the network via the requested Web pages, providing immediate protection against malware and other hidden threats.

Citigroup is also on the list we've all heard about Citigroup recently ... had its fair share of problems ... it's our CEO different handed resigned unexpectedly not too long ago so there's some concern in some uncertainty about the company but David Tepper and Appaloosa Management loaded up quite a bit ... and see the city was also ... the ... most popular stock among hedge fund managers with the most buyers during the third quarter ... as fund managers are also really hot on General Motors ... be scooped up a lot of it during the third-quarter ... famously David Einhorn well known as the manager of Greenlight Capital was a big buyer ... GM again it's an interesting stock and played a meaningful role in the latest presidential election ... that had a lot of help from the US government that things seem to be looking better ... and people seem to be buying more cars insurer AIG American International group also makes the list you might not think so given all the bad publicity a tad over several years ... it too was the subject of a large bailout but Leon Cooperman some eighty advisors is a big fan ... so were several other hedge fund managers which made AIG known for its strong global reach ... the third most popular stock among hedge funds in the third quarter ... tech juggernaut Grubel was also on the shopping list of many hedge funds ... the firm's ever increasing earnings in the acceptance of its Android smartphone technology ... along with Chromebook technology for laptops ... is getting lots of fans not surprisingly Apple made the list of hedge funds most popular stocks in remained in the number one position ... however ... fewer hedge funds actually own the stock at the end of the third quarter than at the end of the second quarter ... showing that like investors in the open market where we've seen the stock price of Apple fall twenty percent in the last couple weeks ... then tries to do a bit nervous ...
