Doctor Who Recap: A Space Pope? We'll never work again.
Hi Trashmii!
In the time since I last did a post, I've come to think that's the better greeting. Like I did once before, then I started using 'Trashies' again. So we'll see how long it lasts – but at least it does give a nod to our history.
Pretty much like this Christmas Special of Doctor Who, 'The Time of the Doctor'. I had intended to cover the 50th anniversary 'Day of the Doctor' too, but I got halfway through before getting sidetracked with real life. No, even I have one. Ok I pretend to have one. That special was more a celebration of the last 50 years of Doctor Who, with lots of callbacks to old stuff and a companion programme with all the old Doctors in (that are still alive).
'The Time of the Doctor' is the swansong of the 11th Doctor, and the introduction of the 12th. Although previous series minimized the role of regeneration, the modern relaunch treats it as a much more dramatic occasion. No more regens like the 6th to the 7th Doctor, where the reason for it wasn't shown, it just happened in the first 30 seconds of the episode. No. Now we have a long goodbye, for good or ill. I'm still not sure which way I think it went in the end, so that rules out 'really really well' by implication.
A brief overview – this (and the previous special) sums up everything that is currently right and wrong about Doctor Who. It mixes up too many milestones at once, doesn't really provide reasons for a lot that happens – but it is dramatic and exciting. It also shows some good undercurrents from a long term fan's point of view. It tries, and partially succeeds, to roll up the Matt Smith 11th Doctor Era, to leave a clean slate for the next one.
We start off with a voice over about 'the man who stayed for Christmas'. Uh oh. They're going with the Christmas theme. I suppose it unrealistic of me to think they wouldn't, but I had hoped. This sums up my attitude to Christmas this year:
Fuck off before I cook your lamb in a curry
Why? Well I've never believed in Father Christmas, being a deeply cynical child, and if you need a special festival each year to remind you to be a nice person then you're a bigger bastard than I am. On the plus side, I like the food and the time off work, so its swings and roundabouts.
The main plot point is that a planet has being giving off a message that the whole universe can hear (or at least all the nasty species can) and they've come to see what it is, as they don't understand it.
A message we don't understand? Quick, send our whole fleet to investigate! Don't ask why!
The Doctor has come to investigate too, and is on board a ship with a Dalek Proboscis, as proof of his courage, and to see what the owners want.
Do the spheres on those columns look like Dalek spheres Doctor?
It's a Dalek ship, and he runs for it. The Daleks that are shown are the old style ones, not the newer designs from two series ago that appear now to have been shuffled under the carpet for good. Maybe the action figure sales weren't great. (That's why they were introduced, the part of the BBC that deals with merchandising agreed to fund Doctor Who through the massive BBC budget cuts if they made more new Daleks they could sell as action figures.) But the Doctor escapes. We won't ask the particulars, as if we did we'd be bitterly disappointed.
He seems to have picked up an irrelevant sidekick for some reason. If that's a Cyberman though, that means it's a cyborg, and that's a humanoid head in that helmet, not a robot. Pretty creepy.
The Doctor's new friend
The Doctor can't translate the message, but now he gets interrupted by his real companion, Clara. The original screenie I took didn't come out well, so I've substituted an alternative.
I'm as angry about that as you are.
No she doesn't wear that stuff in the show, after the Leela episodes the BBC have steered away from that. Ok she's not Sarah Jane Smith, the companion of companions, or Donna Noble,the best of the new breed by far. But she is quite good so far, and very hot. Sorry can't help that. But the 11th Doctor was really defined by sticking with Amy Pond the whole time, so she's despite her dramatic storyline she's still somewhat overshadowed.
Clara's problem turns out to be she wants a boyfriend to show off at Lunch to her family. The Doctor fills in, and an incredibly contrived and silly joke ensues. The Doctor is nude! And instead of getting dressed, he decides to wear holographic clothes. What? Why? Wait there's more – they're special holographic clothes that have to be keyed to the person who sees them, or else your still nude! So the contrived joke lumbers over the horizon with all the subtlety of a rampaging elephant. Clara takes a nude Doctor to lunch – but without realizing it. What larks.
That's how I feel right now.
I won't say kill me now, but I'm up for killing the writer. I mean whilst we're visiting the 1970s for comedy, why not have Clara's grandmother say 'Have you seen my pussy' and hold up a cat?

HEllo Donna,
I had a beautiful Winter King growing outside the garden Center window

Consequences of rising income inequality: a comment
Rising income inequality is an anglo Saxon problem. For most of the other OECD countries, earnings dispersion is rather persistent. Vertical mobility is to be taken into account. The paper also looks at the relationship of income inequality, growth and employment. It elaborates the point that equity orientation affects the incentive system of an economy and can lead to higher unemployment.

Seamarks cover by Paul Rand
A Paul Rand paperback book cover design.
Seamarks by St.-John Perse.
Harper & Brothers, 1961.
This is a later edition of the Bollingen hard cover of the same title. The cover typography has changed from the original, but it still lists Rand as the designer. It is unclear if Rand set the new typography or if this was done by the art department at Harper & Brothers.
Part of a big find this afternoon of several early Alvin Lustig covers, as well as a couple from Elaine Lustig and Paul Rand.

"what are you talking about? He a beautiful horse!" the man argues
"he not look so good" the owner insists
The man, now irritated tells the owner "he's a fine horse and Id lime to buy him."
The owner tries again to dissuade them man "he not look so good"
"look!" says the man "is he for sale or not!?" and the owner relectant sells the horse to the man. The man gets on and the horse runs him I to a wall. Angry he goes back to the man who sold him the horse "hey! Yu sold me a BLIND horse!" to which the seller replies "I told, he not look so good"

Lol... oh my.
And that's why we get a PPE. (sorry, had to)

2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Video: Rolling Out On Stage
The hotly anticipated 2014 Chevrolet Corvette rolls out on stage to a huge group of assembled journalists and fans at the 2013 Detroit auto show. We'll have more coverage of the new Corvette throughout the week but until then check out the video.
2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray
As the main objective of the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is achieving an unparalleled performance-to-price ratio, Cars.com reviewer Joe Bruzek says buyers' option selections become critical. That $52,000 starting price can quickly balloon to $70,000 if you're not judicious about your bells and whistles, potentially defeating this budget supercar's purpose. Likewise, you'll also want to keep pragmatism in mind during model selection, Bruzek warns, noting that he soon tired of the Z51's track-ready ride and longed for the base model's cruising comfort. Watch the video above for Bruzek's tips on making wise choices with this model.

Fans of the late Michael Crichton will welcome this engrossing SF thriller, the first in a projected trilogy by D'Amato (Beauty). As December 12, 2012, the date the Maya predicted would mark the end of the world, approaches, the Warren Group, a shadowy conglomerate, seeks to use technological advances to forestall disaster. One way is to send the mind of Jed DeLanda, a savant skilled at a contemporary version of the Mayas' sacrifice game, into the body of a seventh-century Mayan hip-ball player to learn more about why the apocalyptic prediction was made. DeLanda's time-travel comes just as a devastating calamity, possibly triggered by biological weapons, hits Orlando, Fla. The action shifts easily between the near-future and the past. While the use of modern idiom in the historical scenes may take some getting used to, the period details are as convincing as those in Simon Levack's superb Aztec mysteries (The Demon of the Air, etc.).

In the Courts of the Sunby Brian D'Amato
The year is 2012. Jed DeLanda, a descendant of the Maya, is a math prodigy raking in profits from online trading. But Jed's life is thrown into chaos when his former mentor, Taro, and a mysterious female game designer enlist Jed's help in deciphering an ancient Mayan
It was predicted. We were warned. December 21, 2012. The day time stops.
The year is 2012. Jed DeLanda, a descendant of the Maya, is a math prodigy raking in profits from online trading. But Jed's life is thrown into chaos when his former mentor, Taro, and a mysterious female game designer enlist Jed's help in deciphering an ancient Mayan codex containing the secrets of the Sacrifice Game.
It foretells of the end of civilization, and only Jed can prevent the coming apocalypse. He must play the Game himself—in a mind-bending journey that stretches from thousands of years into the past to the very brink of the end of time.
"A stunningly inventive novel that . . . weaves together Mayan history, modern science, game theory and the coming Mayan apocalypse."—Douglas Preston, author of The Monster of Florence

"[An] ambitious . . . adventure through time."—Booklist
Editorial Reviews
The Mayan calendar ends on December 21, 2012, and many wonder what will happen on that fateful day. That is the question D'Amato (Beauty) examines in this sprawling tome. Familiar with a game that the Mayans used to predict the future, Jed Deland successfully makes money on the stock market using the same methods. He ends up helping an organization with access to time-travel technology so that he can travel back at the height of the Mayan civilization, interact with these ancient people, and find out what the world can expect when the calendar ends. Not a thriller, a work of science fiction, or a historical, this novel is hard to define. End-of-the-world aficionados will find it compelling, but librarians will have a hard time booktalking it. It also ends with the dreaded four words: End of Book One. Will the entire series be published before the apocalypse? For larger collections only. [See Prepub Alert, LJ11/1/08.]

Since the recent discover of a new Mayan codex from the seventh century, many people are beginning to believe in the Mayan prediction that the world will end on December 12, 2012. As the date of doom approaches, the Warren Group, firm believers that doing nothing will prove the Mayans right, decide on several methods to delay the end. They especially feel the first step is to send someone back in time to the seventh century when the prediction surfaced into the mind of a Mayan royal as the key to learn why the deadly forecast.
The Group believes Jed DeLanda, an expert on the Mayan¿s Sacrifice Game, has the perfect focused mind they need. They send his conscience back through time to 664 AD targeting the monarch; instead his conscience enters the mind of seventh-century Mayan Sacrifice Game playing superstar Chacal seconds before his host is to suicide as a sacrifice.
This is an exciting doomsday science fiction thriller that moves the audience back and forth between the countdown to 2012 and the original prophesy in the seventh century. The story line in both centuries is well written and exhilarating while Jed is a believable hero in both eras. Fans will especially appreciate the vivid descriptions of the Mayans society especially insight into the Human Sacrifice game and the purpose of the Great Pyramid. IN THE COURT OF THE SUN is a refreshing unique thriller.

I bought this on impulse, because of my interest in Mayan culture. Have read Coe, Schlee and others, visited several sites, including Tikal. I am about 3/4 of the way through this gripping read. Although there is a time travel premise, I don't think this falls within the science fiction genre. It is extremely well-researched and the author has a real feel for meso-America. The hero is likeable, a modern Maya with extraordinary computational skills who hopes to avert the end of time as predicted in 2012. If you are a fan of Stephenson and want an offbeat but intellectually stimulating read, this delivers. Big time. Kudos to the author.
I am usually not one to give a review on a book i didn't (or, more precisely, couldn't) finish, however i feel it necessary to speak my mind on this one. I tried slogging through this work of prose, but it is, in a word, tedious. Let's just say i didn't get very far ( in 4 days , mind you, and i can polish off a 600-pager like it was "see spot run") and am truly disappointed as I was very much looking forward to this read. High marks for originality and the book cover, but the detail was so overwhelming that I had a hard time focusing on the plot. Perhaps I'll give it a try another time, but if it's all to end in 2012, i think i'd be better off spending those 2 & 1/2 years reading something i truly enjoy.
I would definitely recommend this book to anyone wanting something outside of the norm. It was actually quite difficult to read, his style is odd to say the least, but the manner in which he wrote it showed he was a normal joe, people can relate. He did not talk down, or up it was like you were in his head the whole time experiencing everything right along with Jed and Jed2.
This book definitely makes it into my top ten best books EVER. It is so imaginitive, so mind-bendingly interesting that you can't wait to get home to read the next chapter. I've nearly ruined my eyes trying to finish this fantastic story. In addition to being such a great tale, it is also hilarious and I find myself laughing out loud. Love, love love this book and what an extra bonus to find out it is the first of a trilogy!
The wry, cocky first-person narrative works well, and the storyline is engaging, but the book bogs down in overly detailed, moment-by-moment descriptions. Clearly, it's being stretched into a trilogy. Overall, Mesoamerican cultures are vividly portrayed, and the plot IS clever. Latin American History and sci-fi are big interests of mine, so more than likely I'll read the remaining volumes... but probably in paperback.
This is the first book I've actually stopped reading. I only made it to page 200 and it was so slow I almost fell asleep reading a couple of the chapters. The explanations the author offers for certain events just don't seem plausible. Also he brings politics into the mess. In the beginning the book jumps all over the place. I don't recommend this book to anyone.
I was looking forward to reading this book but ended up forcing myself to plow through it in the hopes it really was going somewhere. Why didn't I just put it away? The subject fascinates me and the plot was imaginative. However, the author's flip writing style was unappealing and seemed to mock the subject.
I liked the book overall. The historical perspective I thought was excellent. The only real drawback to the storyline was the unbridled vitriol that author has for those who don't show his political views. It overshadowed the story unfortunately and would have been much better off if it had been masked and left out of the storyline. It was brought up as often as the author thought he could add it and even played an intrinsic role. A shame.
I purchased this book for enjoyment while in Mexico this summer touring the Mayan and Aztec sites. The book was so slow towards the middle of the book that I decided to leave it in my hotel room for the next guest....it was not worth my time or interest to finish it. Sorry for negative feedback to the author....
Aside from the fact that you have to be a Maylan or a scientist to understand what this book is all about, the story line was not that good. I will definetly not read the second book.
Good plot, rambling character thought processes, pseudo-scientific incomprehensible formulae. Overall an okay book but should have been edited more than it was.
I was ready to to buy this book, because I am interested in the Mayan culture. I read the reviews and I thought, hmmm Too many negatives. Then I read the sample, I could not understand all the jumbled up words and sentences the author was writing about. When I finished reading the sample, I had no idea what I had just read. Do I want to buy this book, I don't think so. I want to read about the Mayan's and 2012. Not Dick Cheny and politics.
Sorry. I reached page 111 and had to stop. I am a man who admires good crafters of our glorious language, and the "boom-chika-boom" jive, popular teen "like" language turns my stomach. Mr. D'Amato might try writing for adults.
I loved and hated this book. I was so put-off by D'Amato's incessant use of "that is", that is, re-explaining almost every joke/reference/technical jargon instead of doing a sufficient job of it in the first attempt. The gonzo-style narrative was coaxing at times and at other times annoying. I didn't need to know every single step in Jed's thought process. It dragged on quite a bit at times. However, as much as particulars vexed me, I DID finish the book and (I feel almost ashamed to admit) the author has me hooked for the second book. Kudos to him for that. I love the idea of the book and the theory of The Game. Detail in a novel is its essence, but too much essence in this book left a bit of a perfunctory scent in my nostrils. I would recommend it... just not to everyone.
This book is a lifetime favorite; I can't wait for Brian D'Amato to publish the next book in his trilogy, promised to arrive by the end of 2010. It's a great book for cultural difference discussion. I'd just returned from my ninth visit to South America, living and studying among modern day, poor & middle class Bolivians. It's common there to mix culture and faith/s. Life's not black & white, but filled with story and myth, contradictions. I found D'Amoto's story, style, characters and attention to detail to fit seamlessly with existing Latino & Indian cultures. The Sacrifice Game, chaos and game theory, creation stories, the old god myths depicting 'end of time;' it blended well. They made 'game' sense to me. I found his characters believable and interesting, quirky and courageous or malevolent, scary or oddly disconnected. From Jed-Jed2 to the porters and different clan members and minor players (Jed's family). A favorite was the ancient nun - very effective! Knowing and respecting my 'Mayan/Aztec,' friends, I realize that it IS a story! Imagination is crucial to consider things he posits; yet so were flight, traveling thru space, even many surgeries now performed daily. All those events and actions are things we now take for granted, yet few people on earth actually understand how they transpire. A rare group of visionaries 'see' them; and they happen. Not so different from Mayan seers who 'see' the future,' and help it happen or not. INTCoTS is definitely NOT a novel for the faint of heart; you need to read it, like "The Sparrow" and "Children of God" (Mary Doria Russell) with an open mind. (Added to that, I can understand that the overt use of psychogenic drugs to 'see' what happens, might cause some folks a case of serious nervous exhaustion! It's not an easy cultural leap to make if you are a person who doesn't "go there" as a matter of course or habit.)I can understand that people might find it difficult, given the western propensity for categorical answers, perfection and success at almost any cost. The potential outcome of a cataclysmic end for life as we know it (in the story) can seem unnerving, especially if your cultural lifestyle has added to its final unraveling. I feel that what other reviews may have missed, by not reading the entire book/story, is that we all ~ as humans do this to ourselves and others. We bring about our own end, by choosing to harm others and not caring for the earth. That said, we all have our hiding places, and ways to cope or deal with reality that gets too hard. I liked it; no, I loved the book. I loved it from the start all through his calendar work and use of the porters to priestess clan, the description of sounds and smells, the use of myth and story. I've seen the positive & negative effects of 'religious groups and cults' within our American society, each up-close and personal. Given the results of the global mistakes that each culture has made or allowed to happen as countries/ individuals), we've no room to judge other people/cultures, or to call their ways primitive, improbable or outside the realm of possibly of offering hope and life. We don't have the freedom to dismiss others, despite faith or political leanings. There's no cultural, religious, etc., "safety net" that makes all the bad things that go bump in the night disappear. I think that we learn from myth and story how to look at and deal with our f
"In the Courts of the Sun" is an interesting novel, built Frankenstein-like from the elements of a Michael Crichton techno-thriller, Gary Jennings' "Aztec" series, and one of Stephen Baxter's novel spins on time travel. I enjoyed the book, but it's uneven. The book was written by artist Brian D'Amato and is being publicized as the first of three books in a Sacrifice Game trilogy. The story is heavily character-driven, led by Jed DeLanda, a supremely intelligent, anti-social, hard-core gamer...of Mayan descent. DeLanda is one of the few people in the world who can play an ancient Mayan game used to help see into the future. Capitalizing on the real-world 2012 doomsday popularity, D'Amato's story places Jed in position to help decipher a recently discovered Mayan codex, and play his game to help unravel mysterious clues about the end of the world as predicted to take place on December 21, 2012. Jed, connected through an insanely rich man and organization, is given a chance to go back in time to find the author of the codex which predicts this 2012 doomsday. He's not actually going back in time himself, but his consciousness is transferred to an individual in 664 AD. The original target for Jed's consciousness is the ruler of the Mayan city of Ix. Instead, Jed2 (as the consciousness part of Jed is referred to) misses the target and is placed in Chacal, a champion Mayan ball player who's been selected as a sacrifice in place of the Mayan ruler. About one-third of the story takes place in 664 AD in Central America and Mexico with Jed2 narrating his search for the author of the codex and how he might be able to play the game and determine the details surrounding the foretold 12/21/12 holocaust. Jed2's narration is sandwiched between Jed's narration leading up to the consciousness time travel and its aftermath. The story is carried by a heavy amount of Jed's inner monologue, which at times is quite good and insightful. I was particularly appreciative of his well-stated rants of self actualization, and his introverts' perspective on other personality types. Jed's very snarky, which at times was wonderful at lightening the mood but at other times a little grating and rambling. He spends a good amount of time detailing the Game. The conclusion is disappointing. I don't know how else to put it. Part two is due later in 2010 and I'm finding myself only moderately interested in finding out what happens next. As a big fan of Gary Jenning's "Aztec", I'd like to see a return to the world of ancient America, and perhaps D'Amato will keep to a crisper storyline.
I struggled though this nearly 700 page book to find out that the author is using the book to announce his dislike for Republicans and Dick Cheney in particular. I have seen enough of this retoric on the news to last a lifetime. I couldn't care less who the author likes or dislikes and he is certainly entitled to his opinnion. I, however will not waste another 30 dollars on his next book to find out who he will be venting against next year. It could have been an interesting, albeit convoluted and drawn-out story, but using the story as a vehicle to express his political views does not entertain me in the least.

This was a great trip and I enjoyed it. The guide was knowledgable and excited about the places. As always I would have loved more time at each place but there are only so many hours in the day.
October 2016
Well worth the trip.
September 2016
This tour really took you back in time. Our energetic, knowledgeable and hysterically charming tour guide from Evans Evans made for a memorable trip. Sitting in Henry VIII's kitchens at Hampton Court Palace is an experience that will stay with me forever!
September 2016
The tours to Windsor and Hampton Court were really worthwhile and beyond expectations.
The driver and Tour Guide were on the ball and full of information.
Would definitely recommend to others and have already undertaken the tour of Leeds Castle through Evan and Evans
Regards, Emanuel Frendo
September 2016
A huge day of walking but very worthwhile.
September 2016
Windsor castle was spectacular, probably because it's still lived in by the Queen. All is in mint condition. The only dissapointment for me was the garden. A total non-event. Boring and lacking in any real design or immagination. Hampton Court Palace garden was much better though the palace itself lacks a bit of furniture and some of the old sections have disappeared over the years. Makes for an enjoyable day.
August 2016
Great trip to Windsor Castle and Hampton Court Palace. Hotel pick up was on time and we were off on our tour bus from the very busy Victoria Station promptly. Tour guide on the bus was very friendly and knowledgable telling us about the many sights along the way. Including the vilage of Windsor. Tickets were distributed and we toured the magnificent Windsor Castle at our leisure using the headsets provided. Lunch was not included in the price but there were many food outlets in Windsor. After lunch we travelled to Hampton Court Palace to see its beautiful buildings and gardens. Once again headsets were provided and there was plenty of time to see everything. Tour was to finish at Victoria Station but our driver and guide arranged convenient drop off places for us all. Highly recommend this tour - a nice relaxing day out of the city.
July 2016
this was a great easy calm day with a great tour guide.

Well planned and informative.

This was a 5 stars trip!

The 3-D printing (additive manufacturing) industry is expected to grow at a rapid pace in the future. Analysts are of the opinion that the industry can clock annual growth rates of 20%-30% going forward as the technology progresses from building prototypes to parts for end use and also expands into metals. At present, the likes of 3D Systems (NYSE:DDD) and Stratasys (NASDAQ:SSYS) are among the options to benefit from this industry, but another player in the form of Hewlett-Packard (NYSE:HPQ) is set to join the arena.
Hewlett-Packard, as everyone knows, has long been famous for its personal computers and printing solutions (2-D printing). The company has enjoyed a renaissance ever since CEO Meg Whitman took charge and the stock is up an impressive 75% this year. However, Whitman isn't satisfied yet and plans to enter the 3-D printing market next year.
What Hewlett-Packard might do
Last week, Whitman told the Canalys Channels Forum in Bangkok that HP plans to enter the market for 3-D printers in the middle of next year. According to Whitman, HP is excited about the 3-D printing industry and it aims to ace this business. Hence, the company's research division is looking into the possibilities in this business. Whitman believes that 3-D printing is a natural progression of HP's business, as it has a tradition of making 2-D printers.
The 3-D printing market is expected to triple in the next five years and HP is looking to bring its own set of innovations. According to Whitman, HP will most probably focus on bringing down costs and the time taken to print an object. While there isn't much information as to what 3-D printing product HP will be bringing out, but she said that it will be some "new technology."
However, if HP manages to deliver a 3-D printed object at a lower cost and in lesser time, then it might be able to bring 3-D printing to the mass market. What would aid HP would be the expiry of 3-D printing patents next year and the company won't have to spend a huge amount of time on discovering how to model 3-D objects. And the company can possibly make a dent in 3-D printing if decides to have a go for a few simple reasons.
Why Hewlett-Packard can succeed
First, being a maker of printers and printer inks for long, HP can use its existing expertise and networking in 2-D printing as well. Of course, 3-D printing uses a different kind of "ink" such as plastic filaments or resins. But if HP decides to jump into this area of 3-D printing, it might rely on its existing distribution chain.
Next, with a market cap of nearly $50 billion, HP will be the biggest player in 3-D printing. The company has deep pockets and it can spend heavily on research and development. In the last fiscal year, HP spent almost $3.4 billion on R&D, which is more than half of 3D Systems' total market cap. Hence, with greater resources, HP will be able to spend more on the development of its 3-D printing technology.
Moreover, being a big player, HP can even consider acquiring other players. HP possesses $13.3 billion in cash, which means that it has enough to acquire 3D Systems, Stratasys, and ExOne at once. Also, given that HP has a relationship with several corporate entities to whom it supplies its printer and PC equipment, it can help them manufacture certain products as well. Such a move will create synergy not only for HP, but for its customers as well.
3D Systems needs to watch out
So, HP is quite capable of making a solid move into the 3-D printing market. That's why peers such as 3D Systems will have to be on their toes and continue to innovate. 3D Systems has acquired almost 40 companies in the last two years, with the latest being that of The Sugar Lab. The company has been strengthening its product portfolio by releasing a range of new software and products such as Cube 3D printers.
But 3D Systems is very expensive; featuring a trailing P/E is a whopping 132 while the forward P/E is at 42.83. The company's estimated annual earnings growth rate for the next five years is 21.55%, which seems impressive. 3D Systems has also been shoring up its reseller network across the globe, recently adding Seiko-I Infotech (OTCPK:SEKEF) and SYNNEX (NYSE:SNX) as distributors as it focuses on making the most of the 3-D printing opportunity.
However, if HP does make a jump into the 3-D printing market, investors will have a cheaper and more diversified option to invest in. HP trades at a forward P/E of just 6.52 and also carries a dividend yield of an impressive 2.40%. HP will bring its existing expertise in printing and a big client base, while a strong financial position suggests that the company can make acquisitions if it wants to fast-track its progress in 3-D printing.
Final words
If HP decides to battle it out in the 3-D printing market, chances are that it might hurt the existing players due to the reasons outlined above. Moreover, it would make for a better investment opportunity and shares could soar as HP attracts investors from other 3-D printing stocks. Its dividend and diversified business are no doubt big attractions and would play a big part in generating more interest in the stock once Whitman communicates Hewlett-Packard's 3-D plans in more detail.

Janet Novack, Forbes Staff
I write from D.C. about tax and retirement policy and planning.
A new study based on unpublished Internal Revenue Service data shows the rich are different when it comes to paying taxes: They hide more of their income.
The previously unreported study estimates that taxpayers whose true income was between $500,000 and $1 million a year understated their adjusted gross incomes by 21% overall in 2001, compared to an 8% underreporting rate for those earning $50,000 to $100,000 and even lower rates for those earning less. (The "net misreporting rate" as the IRS calls it, includes both underreported income and inflated deductions.)
In all, because of their higher noncompliance rates, those with true incomes of $200,000 or more received 25% of all income, but accounted for 40% of net underreported income and 42% of underreported tax in 2001, the new analysis finds.
Slide Show: Who Cheats The Most On Their Taxes?
The study was written by Joel Slemrod, an economics professor and director of the Office of Tax Policy Research at the University of Michigan's business school and IRS economist Andrew Johns. It has not been officially endorsed or even released by the IRS and seems sure to add fuel to the election season debate over whether those earning $250,000 or more should pay higher tax rates, as Sen. Barack Obama, the Democratic presidential nominee, has proposed.
The Slemrod/Johns analysis uses unpublished data from special research audits the IRS conducted on a sample of 45,000 individual returns filed for 2001. It was the IRS' first such research effort since 1988, and it led the agency to estimate the 2001 gross "tax gap" at $345 billion.
The main reason for the income-related cheating disparity: Higher income folks receive more of their income from sources that are easier to hide, including self-employment earnings; income from rents, partnerships and S corporations; and capital gains.
"The distribution of noncompliance lines up pretty closely with who gets income that's hard (for the IRS) to keep track of," Slemrod says. Still, he notes, the distribution of income by source doesn't explain all the increased noncompliance at higher income levels.
In its 2001 tax gap study, the IRS estimated that individuals underreported business income by 43% overall. Sole proprietors, who report self-employment income on schedule C of their tax returns, underreported their income a stunning 57%.
By contrast, the IRS found, 99% of all wages were reported by individual tax filers. The obvious explanation is that workers have no choice–their employers report their earnings to the IRS and withhold taxes on them.
Meanwhile, net capital gains for 2001 were underreported by 12%, the IRS estimated. The IRS receives reports from brokers of taxpayers' gross sales of stocks and bonds, but not of their initial costs or profits–therefore it has no way to easily check their reported capital gains. (Last month, as part of the $700 billion bailout bill, Congress mandated that brokers report the basis of any stocks bought in 2011 or later.)
The new study seems to show that the really rich are more tax compliant than the merely well-off, although not nearly as compliant as middle- and working-class wage slaves. Those earning $2 million plus had an 11% underreporting rate. But Slemrod told Forbes that he was "less comfortable" with that finding, noting that the very rich may have made use of techniques that IRS research audits didn't detect.
"I just don't know whether these audits were able to track down really sophisticated noncompliance or Swiss bank accounts. They may underestimate it (noncompliance) at the top," he says.
Indeed, in the past several years, the IRS has collected billions in back taxes from wealthy taxpayers who used dicey tax shelters to manufacture huge phony losses in the late 1990s, 2000 and 2001. But the IRS didn't get a handle on the nature or extent of these shelters until years later and relied on tax shelter promoters' customer lists and special self-disclosure programs, not audits, to find most of the taxpayers involved.
Currently, the government is suing

Regulated proteolysis by the ubiquitin-proteasome system (ubiquitin system) plays essential roles in a multitude of biological processes, and has major ramifications for human health. Our studies of the ubiquitin system and the N-end rule pathway over the last three decades were made possible, to a large extent, by the present grant (DK039520), currently in its 27th year of support. This renewal application is about the N-end rule pathway of protein degradation. In eukaryotes, this pathway is a specific part of the ubiquitin system. The N-end rule relates the in vivo half-life of a protein to the identity of its -terminal residue. The N-end rule pathway of protein degradation consists of two distinct branches, the Ac/N-end rule pathway and the Arg/N-end rule pathway. The Ac/N-end rule pathway was discovered by our laboratory in 2010. It recognizes proteins with N-terminally acetylated residues. The Arg/N-end rule pathway, which targets specific unacetylated N-terminal residues, was discovered by our laboratory in 1986. This pathway continues to be a fount of biological insights and remains a major focus of our studies. The present (DK039520) renewal application is about the Arg/N-end rule pathway and the identification (as well as detailed studies) of new physiological Arg/N-rule substrates. Therefore the previous title of the DK039520 grant ("Ubiquitin Ligases, Mechanisms and Functions of the N-End Rule Pathway") was modified as follows in the present renewal application, to reflect its current emphasis: "The Mammalian Arg/N-End Rule Pathway: Substrates, Functions, and Mechanisms". The projects of this renewal application include functional and mechanistic studies of specific physiological substrates of the mammalian (mouse) Arg/N-end rule pathway, and the identification of new mammalian Arg/N-end rule substrates, including those that act as proapoptotic protein fragments, i.e., fragments whose formation during apoptosis (a specific kind of programmed cell death) increases the probability of apoptosis.
Studies proposed in this renewal application for the DK039520 grant will address the functions of regulated protein degradation in mammalian cells. Inborn or acquired defects in proteolytic systems, which include the ubiquitin system, are a major cause of many human diseases, including cancer, infections, and neurodegenerative syndromes. Understanding the functions and mechanisms of the ubiquitin-dependent N-end rule pathway, a focus of our studies, contributes to advances in fundamental biology, and is also likely to lead to better therapies for specific medical problems, including currently intractable ones.

The company was able to win a temporary reprieve from collecting California state sales tax until September 2012 in exchange for agreeing to create at least 10,000 full-time jobs and hire 25,000 seasonal employees within the state's borders by 2015. This compares with the original offer to create 7,000 full-time jobs in exchange for a reprieve until 2014. The state will miss out on an estimated $200 million in tax revenue over the next year.
The September 2012 deadline would be in effect in the absence of any federal law to govern the issue. Amazon Vice President Paul Misener said, "The sales tax issue must be resolved in Congress. It's the appropriate way and the only way California will be able to collect all of the sales tax owed by customers."
California Gov. Jerry Brown signed the compromised legislation into law last Friday with Amazon's blessings. The deal even won support from the California Retailers Association, which has been Amazon's biggest opponent throughout the tax battle, contending that Amazon has an unfair advantage over brick-and-mortar retailers in the organization, such as Wal-Mart
Thousands of Amazon affiliates took major hits in revenue -- some lost more than half of their income -- when Amazon cut ties to dodge the duty. With the concessions, many of the affiliates will be able to get back into business.
It will be good for Amazon to put this episode behind it. Expensive and prolonged legal battles typically only drain everyone involved. As a frequent Amazon shopper, I'm glad the company sticks up for me when it comes to paying the taxman, but it's never been a deciding factor for why I avoid big-box retailers like Best Buy
As an Amazon shareholder, I think there are more important areas for the company to focus its resources, like its growing video-streaming offering and imminent Android tablet launch.

A weapon designed to be used by police to incapacitate rioters more than 100 feet away is in the final stages of Home Office testing.
The Discriminating Irritant Projectile (DIP) can be fired from baton guns and contains CS particles - the defining component found in tear gas - in its nose which the Home Office hopes can be used as a non-lethal but highly targeted weapon.
It is now undergoing advanced trials and is intended to be used to quell riots and other outbreaks of public disorder. Its development was prioritised in the wake of the 2011 summer riots in London and other cities.
Deputy Chief Constable (DCC) Simon Chesterman, the lead officer on firearms for the Association of Chief Police Officers, said the weapon has the potential to offer police a range of new tactics when confronted by public disorder.
"The range of a Taser is 21 feet – if there is an operational requirement to incapacitate somebody at a distance, the DIP can be deployed from up to 131 feet away," the West Mercia Police DCC told PoliceOracle.com.
"The Discriminating Irritant Projectile can be fired from a baton gun and has a quantity of micronised CS in the nose cone."
The range of the projectile is more than 4.5 times the length of a London Routemaster bus.
Other non-lethal weapons being tested for police use during riots include sound-emitting devices. He added: "Clearly we have been looking at means of controlling disorder. You could achieve this if you make an area unpleasant in the first instance."

Towards Scalable FPGA CAD Through Architecture
Long FPGA CAD runtime has emerged as a limitation to the future scaling of FPGA densities. Already, compile times on the order of a day are common, and the situation will only get worse as FPGAs get larger. Without a concerted effort to reduce compile times, further scaling of FPGAs will eventually become impractical. Previous works have presented fast CAD tools that tradeoff quality of result for compile time. In this paper, the authors take a different but complementary approach. They show that the architecture of the FPGA itself can be designed to be amenable to fast-compile. If not done carefully, this can lead to lower-quality mapping results, so a careful tradeoff between area, delay, power, and compile run-time is essential.
