I purchased this after Thanksgiving in 2017. I initially looked for Giant Roam as an all-rounder for my fitness purpose. However, after trying this Toughroad, the comfortable ride immediately swayed me toward this bike. Considering Roam has a front suspension and this one does not, it is amazing! Several strength points: -- Relatively thick tires (700X50c) is comfortable and having solid grips on all different kinds of road surface -- Carbon forks and D-Fuse seatpost add further absorption of bumps and vibrations -- Drive chain (44/32/22 in front, 11X34 9-speed in rear) is more than sufficient -- Relatively light for this kind of all terrain bike (about 12.5kg) -- Flat bar will not lead you seeing a chiropactor -- Hydraulic brakes works fantastically Things to improve: -- Changing gear should be smoother. As a matter of fact, my old Giant Sedona changes gear more smoothly. -- For competitive fast lane bikers, you may want to have a drop bar for more aggressive riding -- I changed D-Fuse Seatpost from original aluminum to composite and found it even more comfortable. I wish it came with factory built composite seatpost. -- I do not mind changing to a narrower tires (eg. 700X38 or 700X32) to exchange for more nimble and faster ride. Mountain riders may oppose, though. I am more leaning to regular road. Overall, a very capable bike! No problem with rough roads. Not too slow on regular roads. This is a great hybrid all around bike out there that you can buy.

Best Uses
It's lighter than my last hard tail, fast and nimble and looks really nice. The Drive terrain is cheap and noisy, shifts good tho, it came with a very loose cassette!!!. I really like the rigged fork, the rear drop out seems flimsy when a rack is on with minimal weight, very creaky rear end reverberating through the frame. Not sure about how tuff the wheels are. I wouldn,'t go on a fully loaded tour on these light sub standard wheels and hubs. I will be up grading to a better quality mavic rims and Shimano XT hubs and drive terrain for sure!
What can I say? It's gorgeous, rugged, and a joy to ride. I have a large. It's a big bike, but light. Feels sturdy, but light and flickable, under this 200 pound six footer.

Best Uses

Overall a very cool bike. Probably one of the best all around do it all bikes. The brakes are excellent. Big downside for me is that when the chain is on the middle chainring, you get major chainrub on the front derailleur when in either of the smallest three gears on the rear sprocket. Neither Fitchburg or another bike shop (Bike Doctor) could tune it out. Fitchburg stated that it is just the case with triple chainrings. I have ridden other triples that had zero chainrub. The bike mechanic at another shop told me that you should never have chainrub in the middle chainring, but he could not tune it out. Either way, you'll have a loud rattle when using the higher rear gears when in the middle chainring. Consider getting the next model up with the SRAM drivetrain.

Great bike for the money. The second Giant bike I've owned. Components are fine. Brakes are very good. Love the rigid forks. Looked for a VERY long time to find something like this.
I use this bike everyday to get to work and everywhere else. This bike is fast and fun! Looks good and rides great! I'm glad to own it.

text: This track has an interesting structure – the combination of calm and mobile style. The beautiful piano has accompanied with modern technic sounds heightening the uplifting mood. Changing cheerful and laid back temper gives some evolution to the composition, not tiresome. It has a lot of good mood, positive emotions and motivation, it arranges the atmosphere of success and optimism. The track is a good addition to several projects: business and corporate, motivational presentations, adverts, adventure video.

Hard to argue that. Hollinger who's normally very critical and hard on the Raptors all the time, is pretty accurate with this remark though.
Source - Click hereChris (Toronto): Jose Calderon is terrible, why did you ever think he was good?
Hollinger: Well, he was good. And offensively, he still is. But man is he awful on defense. I'm having trouble believing that hamstring injury last year fully healed. He's probably the worst defensive PG in the league right now

People, atheists included, generally believe "families" and "procreation" are "good", and also generally believe free sex and procreation-love-free-sex are "wrong", ok, less good. So the sexual revolution was only a partial success because it did not reach fundamental values. When theists demonstrate that style of thinking, it does not surprise me. However, atheists who reject only God but don't reject the values that came along with godliness are missing a huge point. To reject God with intellectual honesty, means to also reject god's teachings. Until we reject religious values en masse (as opposed to single issues such as equal marriage rights for gays) we will continue on our destructive sexual path. A true sexual revolution would destroy the institution of marriage entirely, among many other institutions, and substitute it a child-care contract.
This has nothing to do with the post, BUT what is happening in Wisconsin warms my activistr heart! I haven't seen Americans do a damn thing since the Civil Rights and Vietnam era. I was here for the sexual revolution and, yet, Americans are watching the biggest hypocrites in America stick it to them without even Vaseline.

ShotScience Basketball
We run a YouTube channel that focuses on presenting the highest quality basketball instructional videos available on the internet. We've quickly grown to one of the premier sites in our genre and have, by far, the tightest relationship with our followers of any of our cohorts. We strive to make contact with each of our viewers and answer any of their questions. As a result, we have an overwhelmingly positive response from nearly all that find our videos and have a very loyal following that is growing by the hour!
Our target audience is the younger demographic (pre-teen to teen and young adults), but we have viewers across all ages. We want the design to be appealing to the younger kids and be something that they would wear on a regular basis. Too often we see Sports designs and Camp t-shirts that never get worn by the kids outside the context of the sport they play or they simply are never worn again. We also want it to be a design that will entice people to look us up online should they see the design on someone's t-shirt.
In general, we would want a design somewhat in the "grunge" style. The surf/skate shirts that have become popular lately are a good representation. Possibly something along the lines of the attached shirt designs. We're not set on any one style, but we like that type of treatment. Feel free to submit any ideas that will create BUZZ!
-Must have our name: ShotScience (We DO WANT to promote our BRAND!)
-The word Basketball or even a graphic representation
-Our "Hand" logo, which is attached to this brief. Feel free to tweek or treat this.
-Nothing offensive!
-If you can figure out a way to include our url, that would be great, but not a requirement
Other options:
-We also like the motto "Basketball for your Brain." Maybe throw in a brain design somewhere... definitely just a thought.

I found some beautiful vintage bone handled EPNS cutlery the other day. I just had to buy it, not quite knowing what I was going to do with it. I decided to let some of the pieces pose for the camera. I produced my first "Prints" which are now framed and hanging in my Dining Room.
You can see them in the distance over here!

The Dodgers' off-season check list in the injury department seems unusually lengthy this winter, but apparently they can rest at ease in one area.
Catcher A.J. Ellis said he feels fully recovered from left knee surgery and is already partaking in all baseball drills.
"I'm doing all my regular baseball activities," Ellis said. "It looks like a normal January for me."
Ellis, who emerged as a team leader in just his first season as a full-time starter, had his procedure Oct. 5 to clean up some tears in his medial and lateral meniscus.
He lives in Franklin, Wis., and actually rehabbed his knee in the off-season with the Milwaukee Brewers medical staff. The Dodgers arranged the medical cooperation with the Brewers, and Ellis would make the 20-minute drive from his home to their off-season clinic to work with physical therapist Mark Lydecker.
"He was just terrific," Ellis said. "This was the first time I ever had major surgery, particularly being on my lower half. Everything has gone great. It's a big relief."

Alumnus, celebrated jazz pianist to perform at inaugural Alumni College
June 22, 2012
Loyola University New Orleans alumnus and noted jazz pianist Matt Lemmler '90 will return to campus to perform a special concert with the New Orleans Jazz Revival Ensemble, featuring guitarist Steve Masakowski, bassist James Singleton and drummer Geoff Clapp, on Saturday, June 23 at 7 p.m. in Nunemaker Auditorium in Monroe Hall. The group will be joined by special guest John Mahoney, Loyola's coordinator of jazz studies, on trombone. Masakowski and Mahoney were Lemmler's mentors for piano, jazz, arranging and composition while he was a student at Loyola. The concert is free and open to the public.
"A Musical Journey: History of the Music of New Orleans" is part of the inaugural Alumni College, held June 22-24 for alumni, spouses, parents and friends of Loyola University. Participants will have the opportunity to attend special classes, mingle at social events and meals, take field trips and stay in a residence hall on campus. "A Musical Journey" is free and open to the public, but a complete schedule of Alumni College events, as well as costs and registration information, are available at www.alumni.loyno.edu/alumnicollege12.
A New Orleans native and raised in the Lower 9th Ward, Lemmler is influenced by the music he heard growing up in New Orleans. An accomplished jazz pianist, vocalist, producer and educator, he studied arranging with Grammy Award-winning artist Tony Klatka and jazz piano with the illustrious Ellis Marsalis. After graduating from Loyola's College of Music and Fine Arts, Lemmler moved to New York City, and in 1992 received his master's degree in jazz performance and composition from The Manhattan School of Music.
Lemmler has collaborated with a host of jazz greats, including Chris Potter, Dave Liebman, Matt Wilson, Joel Frahm and Pete Fountain, among many others. In 2000, he released his first CD, "Portraits of Wonder," a New Orleans jazz tribute to the music of Stevie Wonder. Produced by Tracey Freeman, the album featured noted artists Brian Blade and John Ellis, garnered national attention and was performed for sold-out audiences.
In January 2010, Lemmler helped produce the 9th Annual Trinity Jazz Festival in Houston, Texas, and soon thereafter, he returned to New Orleans where his piano and arranging skills were featured on jazz trumpeter and vocalist Kermit Ruffins' last two albums. Lemmler's latest release, "UBUNTU," features musicians Brian Blade, Evan Christopher, John Ellis, Sean Jones, Jason Marsalis, Mark Mullins, Kim Prevost, Bill Summers, Shane Theriot and the Ubuntu gospel choir, featuring George French and George Porter Jr.

Lou Barlow | WIG153 | Released: 23/01/05
''I always felt that I was going to write like Hank Williams simple things," Lou recently told The Onion. "When I start to write a song, I have the words and I have the melody, and then it's just a matter of making it to the end. I think if I have something that I could identify as a talent, it would be that I can finish a song. I kind of know intuitively where the melody should go. But that's something that comes not from listening to other records, but from something that's just in me.''
Emoh is a lush, well-produced affair with eight tracks recorded with producers like Nashville's Mark Nevers (Lambchop), Josh Schwartz (not the guy who created The O.C.) and Wally Gagel (Boston's finest, Folk Implosion associate, and alumni of the Fort Apache studio/hit-factory) and six tracks impeccably recorded at home by Barlow himself. And not "in the bathroom with a cassette player" either. Though, as Lou admitted recently, "If we'd had Pro Tools when I was 21? With that kind of energy, and those kind of ideas just rushing at me? I could've made something that didn't have tape hiss on it, so people would think it was 'legitimate.' I would've made huge, sprawling masterpieces! I believe that. Because it was all about the energy. Certain Sentridoh stuff I did, I really worked on those things, but when I was working on them, I realised that in the end, because it was on four-track cassette, a large group of people weren't going to take it seriously. But that was all I had, you know?"
Leaving the lo-fi behind, Barlow takes his place as an indie rock elder-statesman and a modern day folk-rocker. The tunes are to the fore, with an upbeat swing. The lyrics are sharp, painfully honest (the jealousy-riven "Royalty", the self-doubt fuelled "If I Could") poignantly funny ("The Ballad of Daykitty" is an ode to Lou's many feline friends) and in the case of "Mary", downright sacrilegious ("Immaculate conception/Yeah right!").

PS4 Firmware 4.73 released, blocks MTX Key, ban reports on shared piracy accounts
The lifespan of the PS4 MTX Key modchip will only have been of a few weeks. The device, which was enabling game sharing with virtually infinite numbers of "friends", has been confirmed by multiple sources to be patched with the latest PS4 firmware. PS4 Firmware 4.73 was released earlier today to block the MTX Key and all of its clones.
Yes not MTX Key only but all boards is the same and now all are blocked.

The video below, posted on scene site psxhax by user SheenuTheLegend, shows that all pirated games now appear as "locked" on the account using the MTX Key, preventing them to start.
This is not a big surprise (we had mentioned the many ways Sony could choose to block the MTX Key), and more pain could be on the way for the few people who had chosen to buy the piracy device: Some users on psxhax are reporting that their accounts used for gamesharing have been banned. In other words, it seems like staying on firmware 4.72 will only delay the inevitable.
Hardware mod resellers are facing an always shrinking time span during witch they can monetize this kind of hacks. Similarly to the MTX Key, The Cobra Black Fin on the PS Vita never really took off due to how convoluted it was to use, a small user base. The Black Fin was ultimately rendered useless once piracy was enabled on PS Vita firmware 3.60.
More generally, Sony have become pretty good at killing these hardware mods as soon as they come out, confirming that funding piracy is pretty much a bad move, any way you look at it.
As always, for people who expect to see their PS4 hacked one day, and although this firmware only seems to be blocking these specific devices, it is recommended to stay on as low a firmware as you possibly can. In my case, I have chosen to buy a second PS4 (a PS4 Slim), which I now use as my main gaming gear, while my older PS4 patiently waits to be hacked.

Carlos Gonzalez: Committing Superstar Fraud in Colorado
Like us on Facebook hereFollow @mlbreports
Sunday December 30th, 2012
Jonathan Hacohen (Baseball Writer and Website Founder): Follow @Jhacohen
Today I tackle one of my favorite baseball points of discussion: Carlos Gonzalez – MLB Superstar or simply a product of Coors Field?
It absolutely amazes me how Gonzalez has seemingly fooled the majority of the baseball world. From Twitter to leading baseball magazines, the average baseball fans to leading national writers are convinced that the young man is one of the top players in the game. Whenever I hear the CarGo fan train pulling into the station, I always have one response: check the home/road splits.
Ironically, I didn't even look at CarGo's final numbers when I picked this week's topic. I didn't need to. There are three certainties in this lifetime: death, taxes and Gonzalez's sub par stats on the road. But just to humor myself (and continue to prove my point to the baseball world), I pulled up his stats from 2012. The results? Exactly as expected. Cargo on the year hit .303, with a .371 OBP, .510 SLG (good for a .881 OPS). He mashed 22 Home Runs, drove in 85 RBI and scored 89 Runs. Certainly great numbers, but a far cry from his monster 2010 season (.336 AVG, .376 OBP, .598 SLG, 117 RBI and 111 Runs). If you look past 2010, you will see that CarGo has in fact been slipping every year since. There was a drop in 2011 and a further drop in production last year. For the purposes of this article, I am only focusing on Gonzalez's offensive numbers. Let's face it- when we place the label of "superstar" on a hitter, we focus mainly on their hitting exploits. As I do every year, I break down CarGo's splits which reveals a true sense of the player that he is.
Taking aside Gonzalez's dip in overall numbers, his 2012 production at Coors Field was outstanding. At home, he hit a robust .368, .437 OBP, .609 SLG, bashed 13 Home Runs, with 58 RBI and 58 Runs scored. Away from Coors you ask? The superstar prince turns from Prince Fielder into Brandon Inge. Ok, maybe not that bad…but it ain't pretty. On the road, CarGo hit a terrible .234, .301 OBP, .405 SLG, drove in 27 RBI and scored 31 Runs. In case you were concerned about his At-Bats, 266 at home and 252 on the road. If you pull up a calculator and calculate a full CarGo season away from Coors, that is good for 54 RBI and 62 Runs scored. Ouch is right.
I was screaming to the heavens when Scott Boras advised CarGo on accepting a 7-year $80 Million deal before the 2011 season. Sure CarGo was coming off an excellent 2010 season, but there were too many warning signs. Even at his elite superstar numbers that year, CarGo only walked 40 times. I guess when you hit .336 on the year, walks are not a high priority. To be a true elite hitter, I always preach the two p's: power and patience. A hitter has to hit 30+ Home Runs and Walk approximately 90 times per year for me to attach a true superstar label on him. A patient hitter will see better pitches, get on base more frequently and likely hit more home runs. Exactly how many 30 Home Runs seasons has Carlos Gonzalez had to date? One. His career high walk total? Sadly it was last year with 56. But when you hit .303 on the year, it can still mask many deficiencies.
Note how many of these highlights are from Coors Field.
So why did Boras let CarGo sign such an early extension at such a "reasonable price" for a superstar hitter? After all, it is the Boras philosophy to wait things out and go for the big pay days. If CarGo was indeed the elite hitter that all the so-called experts make him out to be, shouldn't he have been preparing for a $150+ Million contract? It is because Scott Boras knows, what Billy Beane knows and what I know. Carlos Gonzalez is still a free swinger with little patience. For whatever reason, his bat works at Coors. But it does not work in most other parks. Take the player out of Coors and you take the Coors out of the player. If any MLB GM did his true homework, he would be afraid of getting a .240 hitter on his team with little on base skills and less pop away from Colorado. Even playing at Coors, CarGo cannot hide his road woes forever. So Scott Boras advised him to take the sure money rather than take on too large of a risk later on his career.
Carlos Gonzalez just turned the magical age of 27. When hitters are supposed to be in their absolute prime. But aside from 2010, we haven't seen that true star production from CarGo yet. Consider even his magical 2010 season. He had a 1.091 OPS at home that year and a .878 OPS on the road. He hit .380 at home and .289 on the road. Power wise? 26 Home Runs at home and 8 on the road. That's right people. 34 Home Runs on the year and only 8 of them came on the road. The red flags have been there throughout his career. Yet here we are five years into the man's career and the word is not spreading. The words "Carlos Gonzalez" continue to be associated with stardom and elite production. It's just not there people. Far from it.
Still think Billy Beane cries at night about trading away Carlos Gonzalez in the Matt Holliday swap? Think again. The Oakland GM knew that CarGo's style would never play well for the A's. I was actually shocked when the A's had acquired him from Arizona, but then relieved when he was moved shortly after. Look at Yoenis Cespedes if you want to see what a true hitter looks like. Consistent at home and the road- which is exceptional considering the enormous park that he plays in. If Carlos Gonzalez had stayed in Oakland, he would have been another Bobby Crosby. Remember him?
The bottom line for me is very clear. Carlos Gonzalez has enjoyed one huge year in the big leagues (2010). His numbers are enormously inflated by playing in Colorado. Last year, he played in 17 different ballparks on the road. Despite a small sample size, we can see that he played well in 6 of them. That's approximately 1/3. He stunk in the other 11 parks. If I'm the Rockies, I almost consider leaving him at home for every road trip. It's almost embarrassing if you ask me. If you're going to get paid the big bucks and want to be a star, learn to take a walk and hit on the road. Consistency is the key. What happens if Carlos Gonzalez is traded one day out of Colorado? Or the Rockies actually figure out how to lower the offensive production in Coors (maybe move the fences out to the moon). If any of the above happen, CarGo's production will go deep south. If you thought Carl Crawford fell on his face in Boston, that would be nothing compared to CarGo moving out of Colorado.
People can label him a superstar if they wish. To me, he is doing nothing more than committing superstar fraud for the Rockies. Just in case you were curious, for his career: CarGo has a .258 AVG on the road, with a .735 OPS. In 286 Career road games, he has hit 34 Home Huns. At that pace he would be lucky to break 250 Home runs for a 15-Year Career if he never played at Coors. A future Hall of Famer? Please…don't go there. If you ever look up "Product of Coors Field" in the dictionary, I certainly hope you will find CarGo's smiling face. He may have fooled most people, but he certainly hasn't fooled me.
If you want further proof of the Coors Field Effect, we have a great 3 Part Series we have already done at the Reports that maybe to your liking. In Part #3, it even shows his numbers if you include the home parks of SD/SF and LAD: Carlos Gonzalez on the Trade Block? Buyer Beware! Part 1 of 3 On Coors Field Effect, The Humidor Effect on Baseballs at Coors Field: One Decade In Part 2 of a 3 Article Series and The Coors Field Effect: Part 3 of A 3 Article Series

Good article.
Too early to close the books though. This is only his age 27 season coming up, if you can believe his age. Seems strange that he would regress so much from his age 24 season. I wonder if he sustained some kind of injury.
Also, if I remember correctly, he was hailed as the greatest centerfielder in the history of the world a couple of years ago. Now he's playing LF? What's up with that? And those "highlight" fielding plays looked pretty ordinary to me. I could have made those catches (maybe).

G4G needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 76 designs submitted by 18 freelance designers.
Galaxy4Gamers.com (G4G) is a competitive video gaming community that specializes in online tournaments. We support all the leading competive titles on Xbox 360 and PS3 including Madden, Halo, COD, & Street Fighter. With streaming game play, live chat, a ranking system, and cheater protection we strive to deliver a LAN tournament experience right to your home, anytime you feel like a challenge.
We have recently relaunched, cleaned up, and improved our website. We need a fresh easily identifiable logo to match.
Competitive and casual gamers. Predominantly males 18-36. Short attention spans. Need eye catching and recognizable logo.
We need a logo that matches the look, feel, and color scheme of our website. Please take a look at it, http://www.Galaxy4Gamers.com.
Some directions I thought it could go:
1) We are called Galaxy4Gamers so something to deal with galaxies, universe, black hole and the such, but Video Gaming oriented.
2) "G" "4" "G" is kinda a cool, catchy phrase. Utilizes just those 3 characters. I don't know about copy write as much but there is already a http://www.g4g.com, so just be different enough for them.
3) Be kinda gaming inspirational. MLG, who has been in the industry for a long time and already has a few logos. One looking like the MLB, and now this more "inspirational", "Gaming Power", controller symbol http://www.thebitbag.com/wp-content…_7_610.jpg
The dimensions should be somewhat square, but could also be slightly longer vertically.
Needs to be simple, eye catching, and easily recognizable logo.
Find out how a design contest works or learn more about our logo design services.

NF: I understand that Skyworks is doing an increasing amount of business in the tablet or e-reader segment. Can you share any numbers with us? And how does this growing business compare with some of your legacy markets in wireless, such as cellular handsets?
DA: According to Morgan Stanley, tablet shipments could reach more than 350 million units by 2015. Much like smartphones, this market segment is performance-driven. It is serving as a gateway for e-commerce, on-demand content, location-based advertising, cloud-based services, and social networking. With an increasing number of tablets becoming cellular-enabled— particularly at fourth-generation (4G) data rates—IEEE 802.11ac connectivity will be prevalent. What's interesting is that this product category did not exist just a few short years ago. Today, because the RF semiconductor requirements are similar to those of smartphones, it is complementary to our cellular handset business and generates substantial incremental revenue for Skyworks.
NF: How do you expect those numbers to grow?
DA: With the recent introduction of various screen sizes and lower price points, we expect tablet adoption rates to dramatically increase over the course of 2013 and beyond—clearly at the expense of traditional personal computers (PCs). Consumer appetite is for portable form factors that deliver fast web access and entertainment (video, audio, location-based services, etc.). These requirements bode well for tablets.
NF: What unique needs do tablets have in terms of design? And what challenges?
DA: There are numerous similarities between smartphones and tablets in terms of functionality. As a result, many of the analog-processing and power-management requirements are comparable. For high-end devices, it always comes down to performance and battery life.
NF: How has Skyworks overcome those challenges?
DA: We have extensive experience in RF and analog system design and a deep understanding of silicon-on-insulator (SOI), complementary-metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS), gallium-arsenide (GaAs), bipolar-field-effect-transistor (BiFET), and silicon-germanium (SiGe) process technologies. In addition, we have developed a library of nearly 1000 patents and supporting intellectual property (IP) and possess leading capabilities in advanced integration—including proprietary shielding, three-dimensional (3D) die stacking, and flip-chip technologies. With a long history of innovation, we have become accustomed to delivering increasingly smaller form factors and providing our customers with breakthrough system solutions. We partner with our customers to meet their need for analog and RF solutions that can solve the inherent problems in compact, mobile, high-performance devices, such as battery life, size, signal interference, and cost.
NF: I understand that the company has made some changes recently in hopes of more closely aligning its front-end and analog businesses. Can you tell us what inspired this change?
DA: The changes are all designed to more closely align our sales, product, technology, and marketing teams with the end markets we serve. For example, it is the role of our marketing organization to ensure alignment between our technology roadmap and evolving systems requirements and standards. We are attempting to offer more complete system solutions that leverage our uniquely broad portfolio.
NF: How will this change affect the way that Skyworks operates this year?
DA: We are already seeing increased collaboration between our front-end solutions and high-performance analog teams as well as the benefits associated with a more streamlined organization.
NF: Will the firm be better prepared to pursue new opportunities in emerging markets, such as the medical field?
DA: Skyworks currently offers a broad portfolio of RF/microwave products for a diverse set of vertical markets including medical, automotive, smart energy, home automation, and wireless infrastructure. We will be looking to increase our dollar content per platform across these and other markets—particularly as we become better equipped to offer our customers complete system solutions.
NF: Are you considering new opportunities in some of the industrial markets?
DA: With wireless connectivity becoming pervasive across a growing number of consumer electronics, machine-to-machine applications, and home-automation systems—among others—we expect there to be an increasing number of opportunities in adjacent markets, such as industrial. As a result, we are effectively doubling down on several opportunities—not only to further diversify, but to enhance overall profitability.
NF: What cutting-edge applications is Skyworks currently targeting?
DA: There are several important technology trends to follow—all driven by our customers' needs. Some of these include achieving higher levels of integration, envelope tracking, and carrier aggregation for mobile-device manufacturers. As always, original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) are seeking ways to incorporate all popular second- (2G), third- (3G), and 4G bands—as well as switches and filters—into a single module for an unprecedented level of integration and carrier coverage. This integrated approach will significantly reduce the amount of required design resources. Eventually, manufacturers will be able to utilize a single core design team to simultaneously release platforms for multiple markets.
NF: Does the company have any advice on restructuring?
DA: Under any circumstance, we believe it is important to always maintain focus on your customers. They are the single most important reason for your existence and what should be driving all of your business decisions and actions.

Beef and Broccoli
1 pound lean boneless beef steak
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 clove garlic, minced
1½ tablespoons cornstarch
½ teaspoon of ground red pepper
1¼ cups regular strength beef broth
¼ teaspoon ground ginger
2 tablespoons dry sherry
¼ cup olive oil
1 bag frozen broccoli
2 tablespoons water
Cut beef along the grain into 1½-inch strips. Then cut each strip across the grain into ¼-inch slanting slices.
In a bowl, mix together beef, soy sauce and garlic. Cover with wax paper and let marinate for 15 minutes in the refrigerator.
Put the cornstarch, red chile powder, broth, ginger and sherry into a medium bowl.
Place large skillet or wok over high heat. When skillet is hot, add 1 tablespoon oil. When oil is hot, add half of meat mixture and stir-fry until meat is browned (2 to 3 minutes). Place meat in a separate bowl and set aside. Repeat with the rest of the meat, using 1 tablespoon more of oil.
Pour remaining 2 tablespoons of oil into skillet. When hot, add thawed broccoli and stir-fry for about 1 minute. Add water, cover and cook. Stir frequently until broccoli is tender and crisp (about 3 minutes).
Stir the cooking sauce, and add it with the meat to the skillet. Stir until sauce boils and thickens.

AB Magenta Swarovski Heart Necklace
If orange isn't your color check out this AB Magenta Swarovski heart necklace, also handmade by me the artist Nicole Pederson. I used 80 of the finest 3mm Swarovski beads to weave this heart of love together.
AB means Aurora Borealis (which means "northern lights") Aurora Borealis beads have a special iridescent finish that shines with many colors. The iridescent surface is a result of a very thin layer of metallic atoms that have been deposited on the lower surface of the bead.

For a growing number of people the most important use of their mobile phone is texting. Verbal communication will always be important, but sending a quick text tends to be the best way to send over tidbits of information, make short inquiries, or to chat intermittently to a friend. With this in mind we have seen a growth in the number of non-smartphones with QWERTY keyboards. After all, texting with standard keypad is a serious limitation to the number of texts you can send out.
LG's Rumor is a slim, stylish phone that at first glance looks like a candy bar-style device. At 4.3″ x 2.0″x 0.7″ there is almost no reason to expect that there is any hidden functionality, but when the top half is pushed to the left a keyboard tray pops out. At the same time that the three-row QWERTY keyboard is revealed, the 176×220 pixel 2″ display turns to landscape. We have seen similar actions on phones like Sprint's Mogul, AT&T's Tilt, and the Samsung u740, though only the latter is a device that would be grouped in the same category as the Rumor (the Mogul and Tilt are both Windows Mobile devices).
The Rumor opens with a very quick action that makes getting to the keyboard quite easy. This layout is the best for texting, but also works for checking email, instant messaging, and browsing the internet, though the phone is only capable of rudimentary browsing. The Rumor does not use EV-DO though, so data transfer is tediously slow.
From a design standpoint, the Rumor is a nice size and is easy to hold. By maintaining a standard set of buttons on the front, calls and other quick tasks can be done without opening the phone. You can even text from here using ABC or T9Word modes. Flipping the phone open can be done in a very fast action that works well, though after a few months of snapping it open it seems like there could be issues, despite that fact the phone is built well. The keyboard is only three rows so the space bar is placed in between "V" and "B", but the keys are backlit and they are easy to differentiate from one another. Keys are generously spaced apart and typing can be done quickly with greater accuracy than most people would predict. Despite the no-frills look of the the phone's input devices, they actually work extremely well. One issue is that all the keys are double-mapped with some sort of symbol (even the most commonly used ones), but once you figure out where they are, this should not be a problem.
The phones display is small but workable and it is more than adequate for simple tasks. The default theme is filled with annoying sounds and animations, but these can be removed with some tinkering. While the display is bright and easy to read, the resolution is limited, so things are not as sharp as they could be, and only so much information can be displayed at a time. The OS is fast and efficient, so it's great for users who want little more than for things to work properly.
One of the best features on this phone, especially when compared to Windows Mobile devices, is that when the keyboard is opened the change from portrait to landscape orientation is instantaneous. This is one of the advantages of using a device with a much simpler OS. While the Rumor has serious limitations, it can still perform all basic phone functionality as well as instant messaging, picture messaging, post to Facebook, record video, and act as a media player (though you have to insert a microSD card to do so).
The Rumor has a 1.3 megapixel camera/camcorder, though the image quality is not great. The lack of a flash is a major limitation here and the lack of a tiny mirror is something some people will find annoying as well. The camera is good enough for occasional use, but if lighting conditions are not optimal you won't get much. This really limits it to outdoor shooting, but even at full resolution (1280×960) images were lackluster.
The Rumor has good to very good call quality and a speaker that can get quite loud. No problems were encountered during voice testing and the Rumor excels as a standard phone, though you will want to keep it shut while talking. Reception was never a problem in NYC-based testing. The phone lasted for about five hours of talk time, though this was largely due to the fact that it was just used for calls and texts, without more taxing duties, like internet browsing.
Overall, the LG Rumor is a very solid phone. It is not a high-end smartphone, like the Tilt (see our review), and if you understand that from the start you might really like it. There have been reports of occasional slowdowns and other hiccups, but during testing the Rumor did very well and all its tasks were performed quickly and without incident. When it comes down to it, the Rumor is a simple phone that works well and allows for quicker, long texts than using a standard number pad. Given the current price of $49 (with a 2-year agreement) the phone offers a lot of bang for the buck.

Weekend worries over work revealed
Almost three in four workers lose more than three hours every weekend worrying about work, a survey suggests.
A study of 2,000 British adults, conducted by Populus, showed the biggest worriers were aged between 25 and 34 and lost more than four hours a weekend worrying.
Employees in London are the most likely across Britain to have work stresses affect their weekend.
Sunday night blues hit 53% of workers who worried on the eve of the working week - but surprisingly a relatively high 13% also worried about their jobs on a Friday night.
The most common causes of work worry are concerns about job security and the threat of redundancy.
More than one in five employees worry they are not fulfilling their potential at work.
The research was carried out for the employment group Engage for Success.
David MacLeod and Nita Clarke of the group said: "Many people are experiencing real concern about job security, which is understandable in the current climate, but in almost equal numbers, British employees are worried they aren't realising their full potential or that their manager doesn't recognise their talents.
"Unrealised talent and lack of recognition are things that are possible to change, and for that reason it is not acceptable for so many people to be affected in this way.
"It may not be realistic to think we can eliminate the Sunday night blues completely, but improved engagement in the UK has potentially huge benefits for both employees and their organisations in terms of improved wellbeing, productivity and innovation."

This book was based on the real life of a gorilla named Ivan. One of the experiences that we (me and the other teachers in our school engaged in the GRA) wanted to provide for our students was being able to visit the Atlanta Zoo, the (eventual) home of Ivan. None of our students had been to the Atlanta Zoo (which is really worth a trip) and many had never been to Atlanta which is only 2 hours away from where we live in Alabama. We knew that this would be an amazing learning experience for our students.
Initially, we planned on taking several digital cameras for the students to take photos of our trip. However, one of my students suggested that we turn those photos into "movie to share with all of the other kids who can't go to see Ivan's home." Pretty brilliant, huh? They all agreed. That's where some real creativity took hold. With that in mind, students brought their own devices on the trip, took photos and shot video of their experiences.
Once we returned, I introduced them to TripWow, a free and very user-friendly tool by Trip Advisor that takes photos and turns them into a travel documentary. My students took all of the photos, debated about which photos best taught their audience, combined them together, added captions, and published it for all of the others students.
The discussions about what they had learned were so rich, they found they couldn't say everything that they wanted in the brief captions on TripWow. That's right, they felt the need to write more...to share their learning with others. So they turned to our class blog. Once they started collaboratively working on a class post to publish to accompany the TripWow, they discovered that the learning that they wanted to share with their global peers was too long for a class post. There were also more photos and videos that they wanted to include. So they turned to their own blogs.
They have spent the majority of this week writing, editing, collaborating, and publishing because they felt the need to give back and share with their GRA learning community. As I reflect back on this week, it really does make me say, "Wow!" Look at how they took a simple experience and turned it into something amazing that could teach so many others. They truly understand the importance and power of harnessing digital tools and social media to empower not just their learning, but the learning of thousands of others.
Without further ado, here's their TripWow...
The Atlanta Zoo Slideshow: Mrs.'s trip to Atlanta was created with TripAdvisor TripWow!

Hostages Free; Governor Here For Pen Riot Settlement
But Race Riot Erupts As Dead Convict Hauled Out
Moundsville Daily Echo
March 21, 1973
But Race Riot Erupts As Dead Convict Hauled Out
Moundsville Daily Echo
2:35 p.m. - All seems to be again under control at the prison.
2:15 p.m. - Another disturbance broke out this afternoon at the penitentiary, after they thot [sic] it was all settled.
This one seems to be a race riot that broke loose as the body of slain black Willie Hale was being taken out (it had to lie where he fell, for the 24 hours the new-cells section was held by the rebels.)
The prison states it is only "minor" but police are being called back out.
This morning when asked about what triggered the disturbance of the last 24 hours, Governor Moore commented that "there are all kinds of attitudes, of turmoil, of outlook for future" among the inmate population; and this affair "probably moved even further than its leaders intended it to move."
The prison uprising here ended 24 hours after it began, in a dramatic appearance just before noon today on the penitentiary front porch, as Governoor [sic] Arch A. Moore Jr., his administrative assistant Norman Yost and the five guards the rioters had held hostage.
All 7 were questioned freely by newsmen.
The guards were unhurt but were obviously shaken by their ordeal.
Governor Moore reported the prisoners had submitted a total of 15 demands, of which 12 were "very reasonable and humane" and are being granted.
But 3 demands were refused and the convicts did not press for them. The administration refused to promise amnesty from punishment, and refused to permit prisoners to carry any amount of cash with them. (What happened to a third demand was not clear.)
Governor Moore said that the demands he and his staff accepted, were "humane" and items that had they been brot [sic] to their attention would have been accepted without having to go thru all that violence.
As for the rumors of 1 to 6 people killed, the Governor announced that as far as they knew, one convict lay dead in the basement under the riot-torn section, of brutal stabbing. He was identified as Willie Hale, a young black.
The five guards were presented, and newsmen given an opportunity to question them about their experiences. Unfortunately, the radiomen thrust their mikes up close, and the guards did not talk loudly enough for other newsmen to hear, and just then the Simpson church bells drowned much out. But Guard Basil Raley seemed to say that it was convicts Keith Davis and Red Snyder who first took over, as he turned his back thinking all was safe.
With this annoucement, the crisis was ended, the administration admitted newsmen to take a tour of the riot area, and then the prison embarked on a massive "shakedown" to try to clean up the flood of weapons that prisoners keep equipping themselves with.
And the junior army of police and military manpower was ready to be disbanded.
The Governor had called out the National Guard last night and they spent the night, some of them patrolling roofs of prison buildings and others adding to the guard around the outside of the stone institution. National Guard units came from New Martinsville Salem and Parkersburg in addition to the local units (Guard units now get riot control training as the result of the nationwide disturbances of a few years ago.) And chartered busses were bringing in state police still this morning.
By mid-morning the convicts who looked out from their base, could see a phalanx of armed men standing actually shoulder to shoulder along Jefferson avenue from Tenth street south.
This morning, "Trusty" Convict Jerry Lycans walking outside, stopped the Echo reporter wanting to insure that in yesterday's Echo report that five convicts had been parked in the county jail yesterday morning: that his brother Carl was among them and that Carl's reason for being there was that he had inhaled smoke while going into the burning area to rescue men in there, and that it was not "for protection of stool pigeons" as some might think.
Lycans was carrying a boxful of big screwdrivers he said he had picked up in the siege area - standard screwdrivers with shafts up to nine inches long, that can be used for stabbing. Along with a couple of hammers there must have been almost two dozen of these in that box.
Oh, yes, he had been in and out of that area right during the siege, and had talked with the guards. He explained that the rioters had simply unlocked maximum security and opened up all the new cells in the could walk in and out of it.
The Echo had asked Norman Yost for figures earlier, been told that about 175 out of yesterday's population of 548 prisoners had spent the night in the siege area. (Those who chose to keep out of it, were put up for the night sleeping on tables in the prison dining hall and plumbing shop).
Lycans opined that most of those 175 chose to stay in the siege area because they wanted "to protect their belongings" since their cells are there.
(Another of the five transferred out to the jail yesterday, is John Koton who had been extradited from Maryland as a witness to the killing of Guard William Quilliams last year. He is said to have barely excaped [sic] with his life, to a tower, as the riot began yesterday - his life in danger.)
The jail has cancelled its customary weekly visiting hours for today, because of the tense situation.
During the negotiations, a double-hostage situation developed: several inmates were going out from their stronghold to the warden's office, under state promises of safe-conduct; and they brot [sic] with them Guard Hostage Alfred Fernandez - who seems to command respect among the prisoners, on his promise to return with them to the convicts' base.
Outside, the Salvation Army served hot coffee to the officers standing watch thru the cold nkght [sic]; and today Mrs. Myra Walton in her house across from the prison entrance fed newsmen spaghetti.
Following are the demands put up by the prison negotiating committee:
Tuesday afternoon's list:
1 - Investigation of all the circumstances in death of Guard Quilliams last year.
2 - Ten cells in basement be removed (these have been used for solitary confinement. A Citizen came to the Echo this morning, before demands known, mentioned putting solitary prisoners in damp basement not heathy.)
3 - Rules and regulations for prisoners, and rules and regulations for guards, be all written, and enforced with "equal justice to both sides."
4 - Whenever a newsman visis prison, and wants to talk to prisoner, and prisoner wants to talk to him, should be allowed to.
5 - Have inmate representative on prison "police court."
6 - Seek to get WV Penitentiary accredited by American Corrections Association.
7 - Indicted inmates should be provided attorney (courts do that now.)
Demands presented this morning:
[Amnesty] of those involved in present disturbance.
2 - To resolve issue of guards ignoring convicts' claim they are sick: provide a box and forms convicts may put into it, with the doctor only one having key to box.
3 - Meals brot [sic] in for maximum security section, to be served on a table.
4 - Remove a screen around an area designed to protect convicts who think their lives are threatened. (New remodelling plan includes a special section for "vulnerables" and when that is ready, screen area will go.)
5 - Unaccounted for
6 - Clean sheets, and clean clothes for exercised men.
7 - Permit inmates to carry any amount of cash (at present they are limited to $1 in cash plus any amount of prison scrip good at official prison store.)
8 - Profits from prson store go into inmates' fund. Lately this was used to buy a color TV. Now, they want this fund to be used instead for benefit individuals with problems. "It's their money, they say where it goes," said Yost.
9 - Governor to appoint an independent committee to look into problems in prison; and any prisoner's mail to such committee not to be censored.
10 - Guards carrying firearms not to be permitted to associate with general inmate population. (They aren't permitted to, now.)
11 - Maximum security prisoners to be permitted to attend Sunday church services in the walls.
12 - Families of convicts, to be able to inquire at any time about health and welfare of such convict, and get in touch with him. (Any family anywhere in W. Va. can phone free to Governo's Information Number (dial 1-800-642-9001, a toll-free line to Charleston) and a representative of the Governor will check up on that inmate.)
13 - A person requested by a convict to represent or counsel him, shall be permitted to see said convict.
14 - Visitng rights not to be cancelled because of the uprising.
The Echo has difficulty to adding all this up to one list of 15, but there is not time with this afternoon's new riot, to get it checked out.)
As I reported elsewhere, Items 1 (amnesty) and 7 (free spending money) were refused. Loose cash would open wide all kinds of trafficking in contraband and briberty opportunities.

6 JULY 2012 - The Ministry of Health of Indonesia has notified WHO of a new case of a human infection with avian influenza A(H5N1) virus.
The case is an 8 year-old female from the province of West Java. She developed fever on 18 June 2012 and then travelled on vacation the following day to Singapore, where she saw a private physician who diagnosed pharyngitis on 20 June. The case returned to Jakarta on 24 June and was still feeling unwell with coughing, decreased appetite and vomiting. Her family took her for treatment to the local hospital. Her condition deteriorated and she was transferred to intensive care, but died on 3 July. Infection with avian influenza A(H5N1) virus was confirmed by the National Institute of Health Research and Development (NIHRD), Ministry of Health.
Epidemiological investigation has been conducted in the case's neighborhood and nearby market, which revealed that the case had contact with poultry when she went to a market with her father to buy live chickens. She was present when the chicken was culled in the designated part of the market.
The Ministry of Health in Singapore has been informed about the case under the International Health Regulations.
To date, the total number of human influenza A(H5N1) cases in Indonesia is now 190 with 158 fatalities.
