So this is the story of Kobe's csection birth. I have wrote about it on BH but now i have the report of what happened to combined with my memory i can fill the cracks of what i've if'd about.
Wednesday September 22nd, I went to my normal appt on (at 33 weeks and 2 days) and i began showing signs of pre-exclamsia. My FH was measuring at 28.5cm, i had been getting headaches everyday and was seeing stars, my ankles were starting to swell and so was my face, i had traces of protein in my urine, my BP was increasing. My Midwife said it was best to make an appt with the ob for the following week just to make sure it didnt evolve. And made me an u/s appt to check on blood and oxygen supply, and size because of FH.
Thursday September 30th, OBs had a conference so i had to see a midwife for the checkup, swelling and BP had increased, protein was 1+ traces, headaches had become very very painful and i was seeing stars more but the midwife said i was ok, made an appt for a CTG the following we and sent me home.
Thursday October 7th, CTG appt was at 1pm. About 1/4 past i got set upto the machine. After 2hrs of complete steadyness and high BP readings the nurse (?? IDK if she was a nurse or midwife) decided we should do a protein check, results were 4++++ protein. She tells me im being admitted. I weighed 96kg.
The nurse called the Midwifery Dept and they start to organise me a bed while the nurse inserts the canulla, then continues the CTG monitoring.
5pm Mid dept calls to say the bed is ready. I get upstairs and they take HEAPS of blood and check BP, and had booked an u/s for friday at 2pm.
Friday October 8th, U/S shows that blood and oxygen flow is ok but not as much as it should be and DS's is growing. Bloods are done to check the enzymes in my liver. Over weekend BP continue to rise, enzymes continue to increase and on sunday afternoon we discussed being induced and csection etc.
Monday October 11th, on rounds the decided i'll have another u/s at noon before my CTG at 1pm and have more bloods done for my liver. U/S shows that blood and oxygen supply is decreasing and DS is same size as 33 week scan and person that did the scan on the friday stuffed up. During afternoon rounds OBs (i had 2 OBs at this time) said that we should make sure everything is organised because Kobe would be earthside by wednesday night.
8pm Monday night DF went to leave but i asked him to stay until he was asked to leave. At 9.45pm i start to have pains in my whole stomach area and i pressed the nurse button, 10 minutes later a nurse came in and asked what i wanted, and at 10pm brang me back some panadol, she saw DF but didnt say anything so he stayed.
At 10.15pm the pain was getting to be unbareable so i pressed the nurse button and then a few minutes later again and then DF went out and got a nurse because i was screaming in pain.
The nurse came in and checked by BP (195/165), got another nurse to get the OB on duty and used the doppler to check on DS's heartbeat for in the meantime.
OB comes in and tells me that 1 of 2 things are happening, either 1 im in labour or 2 my liver and kidneys are failing. She did a cervical check and put me onto the CTG machine and both showed that i was not in any stage of labour and it was my liver and kidneys. At this stage i called my mum and asked if she could bring up more batteries as ours in our camera were dying and i wanted them to take heaps of photos. I began to loose eyesight
At 11 im taken to Birth Suite while theatre was being cleaned since there was just a csection done and they were sterolising etc. My mum comes up and asks if its ok that she stay until she knows we both are fine. At 11.25pm DF and my mum are presented with the risks (of my HELLP syndrome and eclampsia) while im being prep'd with my epi etc. DF gets his scrubs and gets changed and our son was born at 11.49pm at 36weeks gestation weighing in at a little 2.2kg(4lb 13.5oz) and a HC of 32.cm.
Our Son with his daddy at 20 minutes old
Our boy
*I have no memory from here until the saturday morning.*
At 3am Tuesday morning i began not responding and CT and MRI showed my brain had/was swelled/ing, i was transfered to ICU. CT and MRI showed my liver was not functioning and neither was my kidneys. Over night I swelled even more and my thighs were 110cm in diameter (normally 66cm, still large but they were almost double) and my arms were 53cm in diameter (26cm normally, they had doubled) and i couldnt close my hands because of how swolen my fingers were. Because of everything I became a case for 4 OBs to handle and a cardiologist, 4 lovely OBs and 1 total @r$ehole cardiologist.
I spent the next 4.5 days in ICU with some time being awake but incoherent, I continued to say I was excited about potatoes, I yelled at my dad not to come near me and wouldnt let DF or my mum touch me, the nurses helped me BF DS but during his feeds i would loose eyesight and would ask where he was although he was right infront of me.
*I remeber again from here.*
On saturday morning at 3am I woke up and from then I began to recover and on sunday morning I was transfered back to birth suite. Monday morning i was tranfered back to midwifery and was given a 3hr pass to leave and return later that day(I was at huge risk of developing agoraphobia) and Tuesday the 19th I was discharged but spent the day in special care with Kobe. He stayed in special care and was discharged on the 25th.
He is now 15.5 weeks old and is double his birthweight.

Charnwood Arms by Good Night Inns
We have visited this hotel for food on previous occasions and were very happy.
This time there was a large group and we had to wait a long time for food. When it arrived some of the dishes were a bit dried out and some not correctly cooked. However, we dined again on the Sunday afternoon and were very pleased with everything. The staff were very helpful and got us what we needed quickly. Breakfast on the two mornings were very different one morning we had everything we need but next morning had to ask for numerous things. Neither morning was particular busy. On the whole we enjoyed our stay and would probably return.

Only disappointment no heating or hot water for shower & no offer of compensation
Very good value
We had a family suite with a King size bed and a separate room with a double sofa bed.
Good,clean and comfortable room which as massive. The only slight negative was that there were only 2 towels and 2 cups for the 3 of us. As we only stayed one night (and we checks in late) we were able to "make do" but for a longer stay we'd have asked for extras.

Would recommend
I was only looking for a place to sleep and I got that.
The bed was comfortable, shower worked, staff were pleasant enough. Easy access from the parking place. The only thing I didn't like was a lack of sockets anywhere near the bed so I couldn't charge my phone overnight while keeping it next to me (needed the alarm clock). I haven't tried any food so can't comment on that. I would definitely recommend for a short stay.

Fine for the price
Good value for money, clean but could do with a refurb
I very much enjoyed the stay.
Hotel staff were more than happy to accommodate me arriving after the official last check in time. The rooms are separate "chalets", each with their own external door. Was a nice change to be able to park right outside the room and not have to walk through a myriad of stairs and corridors. Didn't hear any noise from neighbouring rooms. The room was clean and well presented, however did lack some upkeep. There was some wood in the bathroom which was starting to rot, and the towel rail has seemingly recently fallen off, with the towels placed on the radiator. The decor seemed a bit dated. Room heating was a radiator, which had been set a bit low on arrival, but the room soon warmed up after tweaking. The shower was nice and powerful, however quite dated, so was tricky to get the right temperature by tweaking the taps. Free WiFi was available, which unfortunately proved to be quite slow, so ended up tethering from phone. One minor issue was that the plug sockets at the desk were positioned too close to the desk to allow plugging in of moulded plugs (of which my laptop charger had). Ate in the restaurant with a large group, food was very good value for money, and service was prompt considering the number of people. I had a lovely gammon steak, which wasn't too salty and only set me back £5. All in all, despite a few minor things, I had a very nice stay, and would consider staying again, considering the value for money.

Another approach, one that adults rarely consider but could greatly benefit from, is a nap.
A 2001 survey by the National Sleep Foundation found that 63% of Americans don't get enough sleep. Naps will combat this. They cannot replace a good night's sleep, but they can help you perform at your peak throughout the day. Plus you can save that daily $4 on Starbucks, because the energy you gain from a nap is better and longer lasting than caffeine. The ideal nap length is 20 minutes, easily squeezable into the workday.
No matter the method, try to find tricks that work for you. Remember, if you don't want to feel drained at the end of the work day, you don't have to.

Table of Contents
What are "club drugs"?
Club drugs are popular in nightclubs, at parties and at raves (all-night dance parties). Club drugs make users feel more open and intimate, and less shy. The most common club drugs are MDMA ("ecstasy"), GHB ("liquid ecstasy"), flunitrazepam ("roofies") and ketamine ("special K"). They have many other slang names.
Are club drugs safe?
No. Although most club drugs look like prescription medicines, they are made illegally and can cause harm. Often, these drugs are a mix of unknown products. Club drugs harm the brain and may cause memory problems. They can also cause physical problems such as loss of muscle control, blurred vision and seizures. Drugs such as MDMA are stimulants that can increase your heart rate and blood pressure. Taking drugs such as GHB can lead to breathing problems or loss of consciousness.
Are club drugs addictive?
Yes. Many club drugs are types of methamphetamine ("meth"), which is very addictive. People also can become addicted if they use GHB, ketamine and flunitrazepam repeatedly. These drugs can cause severe and long-lasting symptoms.
Is it safe to use a club drug in a small amount?
No. People react differently to these drugs, and even a single pill can cause serious side effects, including death, in some people. Also, because they are made illegally, the strength of these drugs can vary from batch to batch.
How do I know if my friends are taking club drugs?
Club drugs may cause people to get too hot. If a friend looks too hot or feels weak or sick, get him or her to a cool, quiet place as soon as you can. If the person is thirsty, give him or her a sports drink (like Gatorade), not plain water. If the person doesn't start feeling better, get medical help right away.
How can I prevent someone from giving me a club drug?
Club drugs often are used as "date rape" drugs. The following are things you can do to prevent someone from giving you a club drug without your knowledge:
- Always keep your drink with you.
- Never take a drink from someone you don't know and trust.
- Watch out for your friends' drinks.
Questions to Ask Your Doctor
- What are club drugs, and how are they different from other illicit drugs?
- What are the dangers of taking club drugs?
- What can I do if I think someone has given me a drug without my consent?
- How do I know if my child is taking club drugs?
- How can I start a conversation with my child about club drugs?
Gamma-Hydroxybutyrate (GHB)
What is GHB?
Gamma-hydroxybutyrate (GHB) is an illegal drug that is used as a muscle builder, a "party drug" and a "date-rape" drug. GHB is available in liquid form, powder form or as a pill. GHB has been linked to many serious illnesses and even deaths. GHB has many names.A certain form of GHB, sodium oxybate, (brand name: Xyrem) was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to treat some of the symptoms of narcolepsy (a chronic sleep disorder). In people with narcolepsy, Xyrem can reduce daytime sleepiness and reduce cataplexy (weak or paralyzed muscles) attacks. However, Xyrem is only available with a prescription and its use is very tightly restricted.
What are the dangers of GHB use?
There are many side effects of GHB. They include:
- Drowsiness
- Dizziness
- Nausea
- Vomiting
- Loss of coordination
- Changes in blood pressure
- Trouble breathing
- Aggressive behavior
- Impaired judgment
- Hallucinations
- Seizures
- Coma
- Death
These effects usually appear 10 to 20 minutes after a person takes the drug.
Should I be worried about GHB?
Yes. Because GHB has no color or smell, it can easily be slipped into drinks and food. Even a very small amount of GHB may cause a person to "black out" (become unconscious). This is why GHB is often used as a "date-rape" drug.
What should I tell my children about GHB?
GHB is used most often by teenagers and young adults. Talk with your children about the dangers of GHB. Warn them not to accept drinks from other people or drink from containers they didn't open themselves. Tell them to keep their drinks with them all the time, even if they go into the bathroom. If you have any questions, ask your doctor.

Palermo President Maurizio Zamparini keeps changing Javier Pastore's asking price and now feels €60m is about right.
Pastore put in a great performance and scored a goal against Milan in the first leg of this season's Coppa Italia semi-final.
Speaking to Radio Radio, Pastore said: "€40m-50m isn't enough anymore. You'd need at least €60m to talk about an indecent proposal."
Asked about his other starlet, Abel Hernandez, he replied: "We haven't made any judgement on him. He hasn't played all year and needs to grow."
Keep up to date with the latest news and action from Spain's Primera Division with Football Espana - from the team behind Football Italia. [11]

This review is from: MSI G41TM-E43 LGA 775 Intel G41 HDMI Micro ATX Intel Motherboard
Pros: I bought this one to replace an Asus mobo P5GC-MX1333 that went dead (with a POST message USB overcharged, the system will shutdown in 15 seconds) after 6 months of intensive video and graphic editing. To my very surprise, after all hardwares were moved to this new mobo, my computer starts up smoothly like nothing has changed with all my applications intact.
Online BIOS update is very easy, just a mouse click and that's it.
CPU overclocking integration on board is also a plus, but I didn't try it yet, will get back to post it later.
Memory upgrade-able from 4GB on 667 to 8GB on 800 is also a plus just in case you want more juice for your gear.
Didn't try HDMI yet, I am connecting HDMI tru my video card nvidia 9600 GT, flawlessly on my second screen 250 inches projector without any problem.
Cons: False advertising!!! there is an oulet for 1394 connection on board, but NO PINS on it. First thought, I want to return this board asap but restraint due to lack of time, and my curiosity to see of how it works.
Other Thoughts: Hey MSI, you have to QA your product better to gain people trust.READ FULL REVIEW

The Wonderful Wizard of Oz is a children's novel written by L. Frank Baum and illustrated by W. W. Denslow.
The story chronicles the adventures of a girl named Dorothy in the Land of Oz. Thanks in part to the 1939 MGM movie, it is one of the best-known stories in American popular culture and has been widely translated. Its initial success, and the success of the popular 1902 Broadway musical Baum adapted from his story, led to Baum's writing thirteen more Oz books.
Dorothy is an orphan raised by her Uncle Henry and Aunt Em in the bleak landscape of a Kansas farm. She has a little black dog Toto, who is her sole source of happiness. One day the farmhouse, with Dorothy and Toto inside, is caught up in a tornado and deposited in a field in Munchkin Country in the Land of Oz. The falling house kills the ruler of the Munchkins, the Wicked Witch of the East.

White Plains was one of several groups, drawn from a cache of British session singers that enjoyed hit singles during the early 70s. Tony Burrows, Robin Shaw and Pete Nelson were each ex-members of the Flowerpot Men, while the acts line-up was completed by songwriter Roger Greenaway, previously David of David And Jonathan. The newcomer co-wrote White Plains debut hit, My Baby Loves Lovin (1970), with partner Roger Cook, and joined Burrows in the Brotherhood Of Man who enjoyed a contemporaneous UK Top 10 single, United We Stand. Both vocalists then left White Plains to form the Pipkins, while Shaw and Nelson brought in replacement singers for studio and live work. Another Cook And Greenaway composition, Ive Got You On My Mind, took the reshaped unit back into the Top 20, before their cover version of Bobby Shermans US smash hit, Julie Do Ya Love Me?, reached number...

The function room at the Hilton Hotel was packed with our fellow travellers sitting at round dinner tables spread with cloths but no cutlery. With children running around it looked like the end of a long wedding reception. As the afternoon progressed the children got noisier and space constraints meant we had to eat our dinner from plates on our laps in armchairs in the hotel's smart lobby.
Genuine guests of the hotel looked at our already crumpled T-shirts and shorts with distaste. Without work clothes, we had lost our status. We were clearly wearing out our welcome with the hotel managers. The buses began to arrive for us an hour early.
Back at the airport we were told the aircraft would be leaving at 9.30pm. Time ticked by. At 9.25pm there was an announcement - the flight was delayed by another 10 hours and we were to be taken back to the Hilton. Now the problem was that the aircraft had damaged its landing gear, and it was to be fixed. The plan was to get off the next morning.
Our luggage had been checked in and, in the wake of the TWA bombing, we were not getting it back. We were allowed access to it under supervision to remove articles for an overnight stay, and medicines. Then it was out into the hot, sticky Florida night, with exhausted children fretting and ratty parents snapping, to wait for the buses. They took an age to come. A disjointed flotilla of minibuses and coaches swallowing all 317 of us up at a painfully slow rate. It was 11.45pm before we landed in our hotel bedroom with me close to tears as a headache of monumental proportions appeared to be trying to punch my left eye out from the inside.
Breakfast was good. Then Robert, the very impressive young American from the guest relations firm used by Airtours took the microphone. He was direct and to the point. They were working hard to get us home. They hoped to get us off today. It wasn't likely. You could have heard a pin drop as the information hit home.
Yet there was no riot. People asked endless questions about how they could get messages home, what their travel insurance covered and why there were no drinks available when they had arrived at the Hilton the previous day.
We were told we could leave the hotel as long as we left our names with Lesley from Airtours. Amazingly, people began to smile. The sense of humour breakdown which had been in evidence since the previous day was obviously more correctable than the landing gear fault.
Back in the lobby it seemed less funny. A young mum, up all night because her overtired two year old and six year old could not sleep, wept. Someone said Airtours had tried to hire an aircraft to get us out but that other companies, knowing that Airtours was over a barrel with 317 people stranded at peak holiday season, were not offering cheap rates. The lowest offer had, apparently, been one million dollars for the day.
We were given a three-minute telephone card and 50 dollars emergency cash per person - which just about covered our phone calls (my husband and I were both due back in our offices).
We were given lunch, we killed time and money at the local mall, we were given dinner. Then we were bussed to the Sheraton for an overnight stay. There was not enough room for us all in the Hilton and they wanted to keep us together.
The buses began to arrive. One older woman suffering from asthma was taken to hospital. The strain was showing. The Sheraton had set up an emergency reception area in what appeared to be a nightclub so there were no overwrought, weary tourists to frighten off the real guests. We were told that we should get off first thing in the morning. A special repair team had been flown in from England, heavy lifting gear had been moved in from Miami - five hours away by road - to jack the 767 up on the tarmac and the repairs would go on through the night.
A plan emerged. There would either be a wake-up call at 6.30am or we would be told what was happening at breakfast. There was no wake up call. After breakfast we were told we should be taking off at 2pm but if that didn't happen there was a back up aircraft on its way and we would get off at 5pm.
We got off just gone 5pm to applause and cheers. At Belfast, where we stopped over, there were more cheers on landing. Then there was an announcement from the captain. A security alert had closed Gatwick for a time and we faced a two-hour delay. There were a few groans but the fortitude of most, not just then but throughout the whole ghastly business, was awesome. In the end this wait was only 45 minutes and we finally touched down at 8.05am on Friday morning, more than 53 hours late, with fulsome apologies from Airtours and pounds 50 a head for every adult. Our nightmare was over - well not quite. The car, which we'd left at Gatwick, wouldn't start. Fortunately, the RAC was slightly quicker in rescuing us than Airtours had been. For next year's holiday, we'll drive.
In one week, two delays of more than 48 hours: Wendy Berliner's Orlando-Gatwick flightmare, described left, then the latterday Laker-haters whose trip to central Florida was preceded by two days in central Sussex. The hundreds of held-up holidaymakers deserve sympathy, but in a sense they are the inevitable victims of a system that provides flights to Florida for less than pounds 300. The amazing thing about charter flights from Britain is that long waits are so infrequent.
You want cheaper flights than anyone else? Then you must understand that the system that provides them is stretched almost to the limit in August. Aircraft used by Britain's charter carriers are worked hard. They usually operate three round-trips to the Med each day compared with just two for holiday flights originating in Germany.
The third daily "rotation" helps save cash: consider the depreciation on your pounds 10,000 car, then multiply that by 5,000 to imagine how expensive it is to finance a medium-sized jet. Night flights are sold off cheap, but the revenue still helps the airline to defray the depreciation. My dawn flight from Gatwick to Corfu, returning at 2am, was a win-win arrangement for everyone except people living near the respective runways. Working close to the edge inevitably means that when something goes wrong, it can go very wrong. When trying to send 300 people to Florida, there are as many possible causes for delay as passengers.
First, you have to get all the passengers, preferably sober, on to the aircraft. One reason airlines often reveal a delay only at the airport is because they need to gather everyone together for immediate departure once the plane is ready. All the luggage has to be on board, too. While the bar-code sorting used at bigger airports works well, one in 10 bags has to be screened separately as part of a random security check. Sometimes the screened luggage arrives late, and the take-off slot is missed. Bad news, indeed.
The skies above the UK are full of overflying aircraft. Your charter to Florida has to slot in with the Amsterdam to Atlanta and Berlin to Boston flights, ushered around by air traffic controllers from Britain, Ireland, Iceland, Canada and the US. If your plane misses its cue in this complex choreography, there will definitely not be another one along in a minute. On long flights, for example to the US West Coast, there is the risk that the crew may not be able to complete the trip within their permitted hours - their day is deemed to begin when they check in, not when they take off. So passengers can find themselves offloaded from a perfectly healthy plane while a new crew is sought - no easy matter when everyone is working their inflight socks off.
The most serious delays, as Wendy Berliner and her family discovered, result from mechanical problems. Passengers should celebrate the fastidiousness of British and US airlines and their pilots. Anything that could jeopardise safety is enough to ground a plane. The Airtours and Laker delays, each the result of faults, probably cost each airline around pounds 250,000 and some attendant bad publicity. But as the old aviation saying goes: if you think safety is expensive, try having an accident.

EISER Infrastructure Partners (EISER) is an independent equity fund manager headquartered in London, UK. It specializes in infrastructure investments in energy, environmental services, transportation, and social infrastructure sectors across OECD countries.[3]
EISER Infrastructure was first established in 2005 under the ownership of ABN AMRO. Its first fund, EISER Infrastructure Fund I, was founded by former ABN AMRO managing director Hans Meissner with €1.1 billion in capital commitments from institutional investors.[3]
In 2006, EISER made its first investment in purchasing ESP Gas Group, the third largest independent gas transportation business in the UK and the fourth largest independent distribution network operator. Later in the year, the fund manager acquired two portfolios of private finance initiative (PFI) schools in Scotland at a "Preferred Bidder" stage. In December 2012, these two portfolios of schools became EISER's first divestments when they were sold to HICL, the listed infrastructure investment company.[4]
In 2007, EISER purchased Società Gasdotti Italia, an independent Italian energy transportation company.[citation needed] During the same year, the fund also purchased stakes in Aries Solar Termoeléctrica, which consists of two 50 MW thermo-solar plants under development in the Castile-La Mancha region of Spain, and Dioxipe Solar, which consists of one 50MW thermo-solar plant under development in Spain's Extremadura region.[citation needed] 2007 also saw EISER make its first investment outside of Europe with its deal to develop the Cross City Tunnel in New South Wales, Australia.
In 2008, EISER purchased George Best Belfast City Airport.[5] While under EISER ownership, the airport has undergone a variety of changes, including new seasonal European routes and a new £1.7 million arrivals lounge.
In 2009, Hans Meissner struck a deal to buy out the fund management company from Fortis/BNP Paribas.[6] The deal was completed in early 2010, setting up EISER as an independent equity fund manager. EISER expanded its exposure in Italy with the purchase of a stake in Herambiente, an urban and special waste treatment firm. The group manages the entire cycle of the waste treatment business, excluding the waste collection, and owns 77 plants across Italy.
In 2010, EISER took a stake in two Spanish transport interchange projects called Concesiones de Intercambiadores de Transporte. Interchanges provide safe, convenient terminals for passengers of suburban bus lines to transfer to major metro stations.[7] At this time EISER also purchased a stake in two long-term shadow toll road concessions in Spain, collectively known as Autovías de Peaje en Sombra. The first, Autovía del Noroeste, is a 62 km highway in the Murcia region, while Autovía del Turia is a 52.9 km highway in the Valencia region.
In 2011, EISER secured financing for two solar power developments in Spain and acquired an interest in a third.[8] During the same year, the fund manager also set up a fund advisory board featuring former infrastructure project managers, finance law specialists, and global investment advisors.[9]
As of February 2013, EISER Infrastructure Fund I is fully invested. It has a diversified portfolio containing nine operating and development investments. They have a combined enterprise value exceeding €3.5 billion.[10]
|This section contains content that is written like an advertisement. (February 2013) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
As of February 2013, EISER Infrastructure Partners had made a total of 11 investments, with 9 operating assets remaining following divestments. EISER's portfolio is largely concentrated in Western Europe. As of year-end 2012, EISER Infrastructure Fund I's portfolio included the following assets:[11]
- ESP Gas Group (energy / UK)
- Società Gasdotti Italia (energy / Italy)
- Aries Solar Termoeléctrica and Dioxipe Solar (energy / Spain)

Two recent events have likely ushered the dawn of NFC smartphone technology in the mainstream marketplace: First, Google (NASDAQ:GOOG) finally released Google Wallet on September 19; second, Isis announced this week that a handful of major handset manufacturers are already showing support for its NFC platform. (Isis is a joint mobile payment venture between AT&T (NYSE:T), Verizon (NYSE:VZ) and T-Mobile.)
While Isis most likely won't come online until 2012, it should offer some competition for Google, which is likely to use its recent acquisition of Motorola Mobility to help further push its NFC agenda. While these companies duke it out over who controls the NFC payment market, the semiconductor companies producing the chips used in the devices will most likely be the ultimate winners.
NXP's Weakness
For more than a year, NXP Semiconductors (NASDAQ:NXPI) was touted as the best way to play NFC-payment technology. Being chosen for Google Wallet was a large reason for that. NXP is possibly still a decent investment at this stage, especially since its stock is battered and is currently at less than half its 52-week high of $35.32. But looking at the future of NFC, NXP shows an inherent weakness: It doesn't manufacture baseband processors for smartphones. Although current NFC-capable models and those in the near future use NFC controllers, it probably won't last very long.
These controllers cost roughly $5 per phone. If NFC is widely adopted, it'll be much cheaper – according to some, about $.50 per phone – to combine the NFC capability into the baseband processor, much like GPS, Bluetooth and WiFi are now.
Innovision's Vision
In early June of 2010, Innovision announced it had created a way to greatly lower the cost of implementing NFC. Essentially, its Gem NFC IP allows baseband processor manufacturers to combine the NFC capabilities into their "combo chips" with the other features like GPS, Bluetooth and WiFi.
Former Innovision CEO David Wollen told the NFCTimes that the company believed NFC models starting in 2012 or 2013 would no longer put standalone NFC chips inside devices, but instead would opt for combo chips supporting the various wireless technologies. It would eventually reduce the cost of embedding an NFC modem in a handset to well below U.S. $0.50, he said.
Just over a week after the announcement, baseband manufacturer Broadcom (BRCM) purchased Innovision for 47.5 million. Broadcom will certainly have competition from other baseband manufacturers, such as STMicroelectronics (NYSE:STM), LM Ericsson (NASDAQ:ERIC), Qualcomm (NASDAQ:QCOM), and Marvell Technology Group (NASDAQ:MRVL). But the acquisition of Innovision is already reaping benefits, as Broadcom officially entered the NFC chip market and already has a head start on the competition.
Broadcom's New Line of NFC Chips
On Monday, Broadcom announced the release of the BCM2079x family of NFC chips. Broadcom claims that the chipset "slashes power consumption by more than 90 percent, uses 40 percent fewer components and has a 40 percent smaller board area, making it the smallest and most power-efficient NFC solution on the market."
"Broadcom is committed to making NFC as ubiquitous as Bluetooth and WiFi are today," Broadcom Vice President and General Manager Craig Ochikubo said. While this chip doesn't quite reach the vision of the complete "combo chip," it's a large first step in that direction.
The Bottom Line
NXP may still have a solid future due to the possible royalties it will receive from patents and licenses. It may even look to acquire or launch a baseband business to keep up with companies such as Broadcom and Qualcomm. But for those bullish on NFC and looking for a leader, it's more likely to be Broadcom, or one of the other baseband manufacturers.
In reaction to the Innovision acquisition last June, Ochikubo told the NFCTimes, "We really feel its perfect timing right now, given increased interest from handset makers and carriers and the maturity of the NFC market." And with the recent confluence of Google Wallet and the Isis news with Broadcom's latest release, it looks like Broadcom may truly be right on time.

Ancient Peru and Bolivia, like Egypt, contain enigmas and mysteries, especially in stone which most conventional scholarship can`t explain.

Full Price
$27 - $44
Legally Blonde: The Musical is a bright and bubbly musical based on the hit comedy film about a sorority girl-turned-law student, with a fun and catchy pop score. The peppy music and playful story makes for a great night of musical theater under the stars at Woodminster Amphitheater. The humorous yet inspiring tale follows Elle Woods, a typical sorority girl who can't get enough pink in her wardrobe, whose main interests include shoes, shopping and her manicure appointment. But her superficial exterior hides a determined soul with the savvy to get her way and a surprisingly sharp wit. When her boyfriend dumps her for a more intellectual woman, Elle puts down the credit card, hits the books and sets out to go where no Delta Nu has gone before: Harvard Law. This unlikely academic ends up teaching the intellectual elite a thing or two, and finding true love along the way.

One of the great joys of "The Voice" is watching a four-way battle between the coaches over a contestant, as each struggle to prove that they are the coach for them. Monday's final audition (April 8), Ryan Innes, prompted just that — and it was a treat.
Ryan approached the competition with the prerequisite sad story over how he gave up a career path in medicine after getting dumped to chase his dream, putting it all on the line. At 31, he said that, while he may not be the youngest in the game, "emotion doesn't have an age."
Ryan took the stage, singing John Mayer's "Gravity," and from the second his mouth opened, it was clear this was the audition of the night. Coach Adam Levine turned on the very first word, with Blake Shelton turning shortly thereafter. It took new coaches Usher and Shakira a bit longer to turn, but once Ryan hit his blues-ier runs, all four coaches were facing forward and gearing for the fight.
"Ryan's got soul, doesn't he?" Blake said off the bat. "Most fun I've had listening all day." He gave Ryan the hard sell, before telling him the other coaches were going to feed him a bunch of BS.
Shakira tried to appeal to his ego, saying that listening to him felt like floating in her chair. "You shook this entire room, man. I just hope that you give me an opportunity to be your coach," Usher offered.
"I would like to point out the lightening quickness with which I turned my chair around," Adam said, trying his best.
"I don't think I've ever had a harder choice in my life," Ryan told the coaches, as they continued to plead their cases. But when it came down to it, he knew what he was going to do: "My first instrument is my voice and because I sing soul music, I'll pick Usher."
What did you think about Ryan's audition, "Voice" fans? Did he deserve to have all four coaches turn around?

3. Rearrange ribs, bringing ribs in center of casserole to outside edge. Be sure meaty sides of ribs are under liquid. Cover and microwave at 30% ( medium low ) 30 minutes or until fork-tender and no longer pink in the center.
4. Let stand, covered, 10 minutes. While ribs are standing, combine drained pineapple, soy sauce, honey, ginger and garlic powder in a small bowl.
5. Pour off pan juices from casserole and remove onions. Turn ribs meaty side up. Pour pineapple mixture over ribs. Cover and microwave at 30% ( medium low ) 7 minutes or until heated through. Garnish with quartered pineapple rings.

|Last Sunday here in Wisconsin wind shear was so great that any developing storms were destroyed at 20 thousand feet. We were very lucky. It's a very rare thing to get a moderate warning here. 75% of residents here would have paid no attention at all, could have been tragic. Looking for opinions here. If Florida has an outbreak of severe weather are people there more apt to be prepared because of hurricane experiences or are they likely to not heed the warnings properly because they rarely see tornadoes with winds above 100mph? Great place, been lurking for quite awhile, this is my first post. Thanks everyone for the great weather info.

Video Review
The Pentax K-01 is a bit of an odd duck. When you consider that all the variations on a "mirrorless" camera have been uncomfortably stuffed under the heading of "compact system cameras," the K-01 stands apart. Indeed, the K-01 has no mirror inside, but it's hardly compact, designed by renowned industrial designer Marc Newson to be something different entirely: a work of art. Whether or not you feel the camera is successful at that goal is subjective (isn't art always?), but at the end of the day it's still a camera, and its potential performance shouldn't be ignored because of its unique design. The camera is only slightly smaller than Pentax's K-5, houses a full APS-C image sensor, can use almost any K-mount lens, and comes with a 40mm f/2.8 prime kit lens that is razor thin. The camera will be available starting in March in white, black, and yellow, for a body-only price of $749 ($899 with 40mm kit lens).
