GoPro gears up for IPO as wearable tech race heats up
NEW YORK – GoPro has climbed mountaintops and dived to ocean bottoms. Now it's headed somewhere only slightly tamer: Wall Street.
The maker of wearable sports cameras, loved by mountain climbers, divers, surfers and other extreme sports fans, is expected to sell its shares publicly for the first time and begin trading on the Nasdaq stock market Thursday. It plans to raise more than $400 million in its initial public offering, valuing the whole company at about $3 billion.
The company is entering a busy time for initial public offerings, with seven companies expected to make their debut on the same day. It's the third busiest week for IPOs since 2000, according to IPO investment adviser Renaissance Capital.
But GoPro is likely to stand out. Its branded cameras have created a new market, selling electronics and accessories to people who want to take video of themselves jumping out of a plane or riding a skateboard – especially first-person videos that capture the experience as they saw it.
"They seem to have dominated this business," said Kathleen Smith, co-founder of Renaissance Capital, which manages a fund that tracks recent IPOs.

GoPro wants to go beyond cameras. It has hinted that it wants to be a media company, too, by making money off the videos created by the cameras. However, it hasn't laid out concrete plans to do that yet.
The company, which has its headquarters in San Mateo, California, was founded in 2004 by GoPro's CEO and Chairman Nicholas Woodman. Its first product was a waterproof camera that used film. In 2006, it launched its first digital camera. Three years later it began selling a high-definition camera. The cameras are light, small and waterproof. They have other uses besides sports. TV producers use them to film in areas where big professional cameras can't go.
Its list of competitors is short, but growing. Consumer electronics companies Garmin, Samsung and Sony have all entered the market.
However, the company is seeing competition from the wearable tech movement, with companies like Google showing off their gadgets video capabilities.
During its developer conference in 2012, Google showcased Google Glass' video capabilities with skydivers parachuting into the venue.
Doctors, athletes and geeks alike have also been using the device to capture video and images similar to GoPro.
GoPro had the bestselling camcorder last year, according to government paperwork filed by the company. Since launching its high-definition camera in 2009, it has sold 8.5 million of them, including 3.8 million in 2013. Its cameras are sold in more than 25,000 stores and cost between $200 and $400.
It also sells accessories such as cases, battery packs and mounts that help users attach their cameras to surfboards, helmets or their wrists. It also has a free app and software that lets users edit, store and publish their videos to their social media accounts including Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and YouTube.

Additional growth may come from the wild videos its cameras create.
"We believe GoPro is well-positioned to become the first media company whose content is captured exclusively using its own hardware," the company said in its government filing.
But Wall Street analysts are ignoring that for now. "They haven't monetized it yet," said Smith. It may one day sell ads for its videos, speculated Chris Chute, an analyst at technology market research firm IDC. But its value is the cameras.
"It's one of the bright spots in consumer electronics," said Chute.
The company has been able to sell cameras even as people prefer to use their smartphones to take pictures and video, Chute said.
GoPro did not respond to an interview request for this story.
GoPro's revenue jumped to $985.7 million in 2013, nearly double what it brought in the year before.
It plans to raise up to $427 million in its IPO Thursday, offering 17.8 million shares for between $21 per share and $24 per share. It plans to use the money to pay down debt. The stock will trade on the Nasdaq stock exchange under ticker symbol "GPRO."

LeapFrog Pollux Platform: Mount NFS Directory
This is a tutorial to setup an NFS folder on your host PC for your explorer to boot from. NFS mounting of a directory will enable you to test applications and scripts without having to copy anything to your Leapster or LeapPad Explorer.
Configure Device
On Device You'll need to edit /usr/bin/mountnfs, change:
mount -o nolock `get-ip host`:/home/lfu/nfsroot/LF /LF
mount -o nolock 10.0.0.1:/home/ /mnt
once you've done that, run:
modprobe nfs mountnfs cd /mnt ls
and you should see the contents of your /home dir
4. things to note
obviously you can set whatever folder you like on the host as an nfs share and mount it to any folder you like on the explorer or make a new dir, just make sure you edit /etc/exports on the host and /usr/bin/mountnfs accordingly, so for instance if I want to use /home/didj then on the host machine I would edit /etc/exports and either edit the existing one or add the line:
/home/didj *(rw,sync,no_root_squash)
and edit /usr/bin/mountnfs, either add another line or edit the existing one:
mount -o nolock 10.0.0.1:home/didj /LF/test
you could quite easily at this stage make a /LF/test/bin folder, add that to your path environment variable and run any script/app you have made/compiled for the explorer without having to copy it to the first.
next up will be mounting a rootfs via NFS :)

It's official. The Simpsons is now the longest-running prime-time show in television history, and is the godfather of all the other animation shows that have cropped up during the past decade-plus. Although its popularity has waned in recent years, it is undeniably a television institution. However, for all of its tenure and accolades, it still must be judged season by season, just like any other show. With 20 seasons now in the can, is the show still a vibrant part of the schedule?
The Season
It wasn't quite the best of times, but it certainly wasn't the worst of times either. They were times; and The Simpsons were there. Such is the twentieth season, where we see just how far the writers of the show can reinvent the standard wheels we've come to expect from the inhabitants of Springfield. From a pure content standpoint, the show still has some merit. Its mix of rapid-fire jokes, satire on current events, quick jabs at pop culture, and the show's own self-awareness still make it more interesting than the majority of comedic television. But does anyone really have time for that much television to begin with?
There are moments in season 20 when its fairly easy to remember the halcyon days of the show. Episodes such as "In The Name Of The Grandfather," "Eeny Teeny Maya Moe," and the annual "Treehouse of Horror" episode are just good fun. Not brilliant, and with predictable plots, but still fun. Even "Coming To Homerica," one of the token issue episodes, gets by on the strength of the overall world of Springfield. Even the low points of the show aren't super-low, they're just over-used. "Father Knows Worst" – where once again Homer has to step up to the parenting plate in Marge's absence – and "The Good, The Sad, and The Drugly" – where once again a girl comes between Bart and Milhouse's BFF relationship – are good examples of how the plots are often just on auto-pilot.
Similarly, the show works best when it isn't desperately trying to shoe-horn in celebrity guests for a quick ratings hit. With all due respect to Denis Leary, Mark Cuban, and Marv Albert, the Simpson family and their quirky community shouldn't need outside help (especially from B-list guests). And it's at these times that the show drags unnecessarily. Homer's incompetence, Marge's near-Stepford calm and devotion, and the kids' brazen individuality offer enough cornerstone excuses for situations and scrapes. After all, this is comedy, not brain surgery (and certainly not an appropriate place for the marketing department).
The Simpsons seems to operate a bit more like a brand name than it does a dedicated collective. Sure, Matt Groening still exec produces everything, but he's not a day-to-day force for the show, and hasn't been for many years. Instead, there is a vast network of directors and writers, and they are the ones who truly determine the wit and reach for storylines each season. Because of this morphing body, there is always hope and anticipation (sprinkled in with enjoyment and disappointment) for each episode. Most would probably agree that the show has never regained the heights it achieved during much of its first decade. But the twentieth season contains episodes that are far from its worst, and a few that remind us why we keep tuning in all these years on.
The two discs of the set are split between shows that happened before and after the HD switch of the series. And there is a night and day difference between the two. The nine episodes on the first disc, which occurred before switch, are a touch better than the upscaled DVD quality we're used to. But only slightly. But with the 12 episodes on disc two, the animation is far more distinct and sharp. Outlines are much more crisp, color shading is much more exact and far less fuzzy, and overall the image is just more stable. The more pronounced takeaway is that, going forward, the show will look very good. But if you're hoping for a noticeable upgrade in the future for earlier seasons, the first disc doesn't show that as being too promising. You're probably going to be fine just hanging on to your standard-def DVDs and upscaling them.
The audio, on the other hand, feels like a more consistent improvement all around. Although the channel separation can sometimes feel exaggerated, the DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 track brings considerable life to all the episodes. Generous surround activity accompanies the show's sound effects and music track. And while the dialogue is still more or less front and center, there is so much else going on in an episode – on a sonic level – that all boats rise. The only criticism is that the mix often suffers from over-eager engineers. A screeching tire or explosion can pan to the back simply because they can do that sort of thing now, and not because it's entirely balanced with the other elements going on at the time. Hopefully the mix engineers will begin to balance more judiciously in the future.
Bonus Materials
What's more funny than many of the episodes within this set is what FOX tries to pass off as supplemental material. With the exception of a glorified advertisement for the twentieth anniversary special, hosted by Morgan Spurlock (HD, 3:31), there aren't any. All of those great episode commentaries and deleted scenes and commercial appearances and animation workshops and… all of that is gone. Since this set appears oddly out of sequence with the normal release schedule for the series, it's highly likely that all of that stuff will eventually see its way into the "special edition" version that we're used to a few years down the line. Until then, this is merely a convenience vehicle for the shows in high definition, and nothing more.
The twentieth season of The Simpsons is difficult to get overly excited about. The show may have lost much of the hilarious satire and comedic bite from its first decade, but it's still enjoyable, and flashes of brilliance sneak in just often enough to continue giving you hope. But as far as a collection for purchase, there are a lot of trade-offs with this set. Not all of the episodes really take advantage of the high definition format, bonus materials are nonexistent, and there aren't really any "must have" episodes. For more die-hard fans of the show, the episodes here are presented as well and as complete as they're going to get, so there's no practical reason to avoid it, other than simply the hope of "more" in a few years time.

Botswana weather is generally quite enjoyable. The hottest time of year in Botswana is also the wettest. The rainy season occurs in summer between October and April. Dry and cool weather, with cold and often frosty nights, occurs between May and September, when the average daytime temperature is a pleasant 77Â?F (25Â?C). The months between April and October are ideal for tourists in terms of weather and game viewing. This is the time when the wildlife is most prolific and easily spotted around the natural waterholes and dams.

I stopped by my local library after work and picked up some gardening magazines.
The tall yellow Ligularia caught my eye on this cover. You all know how I love the one plant I have. I don't think Ligularia takes kindly to being divided. I wish it did as I would really like to have more of it and I have never seen it for sale since I bought mine years ago (I actually purchased two, but one died out the first year).
The next best thing to being outside in the garden is reading about other people's gardens. I think we will get pizza for dinner and then I will settle in with a few magazines and see if I can find any good ideas for my own garden.

Gauhati or Guwahati, the erstwhile capital of the state of Assam was earlier known as "Pragiyotishpura" (The Light of East). This city with a varied history dating back to the 6th century is also the most developed and important city of Assam.
The name suits Guwahati remarkably due to its terrain and structure and with the river Brahmaputra bisecting the city into two halves, the city represents a miniature Assam complete with a collection of all inhabitants, their lifestyles and their dependence on the mighty river. However, the presence of mighty Brahmaputra carving its way through the city makes for a romantic and memorable experience. Guwahati is replete with various religious places, green hills, tea plantations, educational institutes and Art Workshops. The city with its ancient roots offers a plethora of archaeological sites, historical monuments and educative as well entertaining museums. The excavation sites and the artifacts recovered from the sites make for a very interesting and exciting audience. The city offers an opportunity to interact with not only the Assamese populace but also the immigrants from all adjoining states, thus making it a vibrant cosmopolitan city. A visit to Guwahati is incomplete without satiating the taste buds with authentic Assamese as well as Eastern Indian food mix. The visit also demands acquisition of mementos from Assam to adorn the house. There is a wide choice for shopping in Guwahati where the artisans even from remote Assam arrive with bag full of goodies. The Satriya as well indigenous art and craft items and bamboo and cane work goods are recommended for the sheer innovativeness, creativity and the afford ability factor.

Ohio Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner on Monday appointed Republican Party veteran Ben Marsh to a disputed vacancy on the Lucas County Board of Elections.
Mr. Marsh, a lawyer with a long history of involvement in the local GOP, replaces Lynn Olman, whose term ended Sunday night.
The board is required to have two Republicans and two Democrats who oversee elections in Lucas County, with tie votes broken by the secretary of state, who is currently a Democrat.
Mr. Marsh, 82, was on the board of elections from 1973 to 1978. He started as an assistant solicitor for the city of Maumee in 1955 and was then solicitor from 1963 to 1992.
Ms. Brunner said that because there is a dispute over leadership of the local party, she couldn't accept the nominee for the Olman vacancy from either side.
She said that under state law, a decision must be made by the state party chairman, Kevin DeWine, and he has not made a decision.
The power struggle is between Jon Stainbrook, who was elected chairman in 2008, and Jeff Simpson, who claims he was elected in a party meeting Dec. 21. Mr. Stainbrook does not recognize the vote, and so under state law the claim is automatically forwarded to the state party chairman for a resolution.

Every party needs cups. Even if you're not serving food, chances are you are offering drinks. Paper cups are suitable for hot or cold drinks and plastic cups are perfect for cold beverages. Choose a color that matches or compliments the rest of your party supplies and tableware or your birthday party theme. There are eighteen colors to choose from, so you're sure to find the perfect one. |
Cups & Drinkware
Paper cups hold nine ounces and are a good choice if you're going to serve coffee and cold drinks. They come in packages of eight or twenty. Choose black or white for a neutral color or if you want to have plenty on hand for anytime guests come over. If you are getting your other party supplies in a color or theme then choose cups to go with them. |

Tony Parker is currently one of the more highly sought after uncommitted basketball recruits in the Class of 2012. The Miller Grove (Ga.) High senior center is on the verge of the nation's top-30 overall prospects, and is considered one of its five best centers. He's considering scholarship offers from the likes of national champion Kentucky, Kansas, Ohio State, Duke, Georgetown and in-state Georgia, to name a few.
Those opportunities should come as no surprise given Parker's statistically dominant senior season, in which he averaged nearly 17 points, 11 rebounds and 3 blocked shots per game en route to earning the Atlanta Journal-Constitution's Player of the Year honor.
What would be a surprise is getting anyone who saw Parker play basketball in middle school to believe he's reached his current heights. That's because at age 12, Parker already stood 6-foot-3 … and weighed an offensive lineman-like 300 pounds. With dimensions more likely to grow into a future Gilbert Brown than DeJuan Blair, most assumed that Parker's future lay on the gridiron, blocking for a quarterback.
"I wasn't always as slim as I am now," Parker told the Journal-Constitution. "I averaged around four points a game. When I scored, the crowd went crazy. That's how horrible I was. Me and my dad [Virgil Parker] used to be in the gym, and people would come by and say, 'Oh, you got you a lineman out there.' But I kept playing and I kept playing. It gave me lot of ambition to prove to people that I really was a basketball player."
It goes without saying at this point that Parker has proven that, time and again. The senior was a McDonald's All-American and won four consecutive state titles at Miller Grove. Incredibly, he was a starter on all four of those teams.
According to his coach, Miller Grove headman Sharman White, the biggest part of Parker's success was his work ethic, which was fueled by skepticism that he would eventually grow into a basketball frame or be worthy of the honors that have now been bestowed upon him. White simply called his work ethic "unbeatable."
Now standing 6-foot-9 and 270 pounds, Parker will need similar effort to stand out at the next level, particularly considering the elite programs that he is still considering. When that time does come, all Parker will have to do is reflect on where he came from and what he learned at Miller Grove, and he'll probably do just fine.
"I just know I wanted to win," Parker said. "Winning was most important thing for me coming in as a freshman. I was coming into a program with eight seniors [including Georgia Tech basketball player Mfon Udofia and former Tech football player Stephen Hill] that had just lost in the Final Four. They were hungry, and that was huge to me. That's the hungriest guys I've ever played with. That just stayed with me through workouts, practice and in the classroom.'"

Here is the cover all decorated. I used chipboard for the cover and back and a Maya Road chipboard for the part the banner is hanging off of. Paper is by Crate Paper with the exception of the numbers paper - By the Numbers- and the pink plaid is Hometown Summer by Pink Paislee. I used a new stamp for the Celebrate that is coming out on the 15th and the set is called Half & Half.
Birthday albums should be fun, right? So I wanted to add lots of color.
I like the pop of the teal seam binding. I added little bits of pink pom pom trim to the top of the banner, Prima flowers and a Melissa Frances resin swirl. When I get time, I will get all of the photos printed out and added inside. My printer is on the fritz right now!

Monday, September 25th, 2006
By Laura Walker
Pressed into service
ST. HENRY - In one squish, the Pruden family's 100-plus-year-old apple press produces 135 gallons of cider.
The old, wooden press is layered with up to 50 bushels of apples at one time. If running non-stop all day, it can make 7,500 gallons of cider.
Local residents now can see the historic press in action while the Pruden family of Rockford has it up and running on the weekends at Niekamp's Farm and Flea Market along U.S. 127.
Helen Pruden said her grandfather, Matt Metzger, first saw the press when he was getting his sorghum milled to molasses. This was the last year, 1926, for the sorghum mill to process and he wanted some molasses.
He asked about the press, and they said, "If you can get it out of here, you can have it." He took them up on the deal, and John and Helen Pruden added it to their possessions in the mid- 1970s.
They have used the press, built by Hydraulic Press Co., Mount Gilead, every year since. When it was built, the press weighed about 8,500 pounds. It now weighs in around 12,000 pounds because some wooden parts have been replaced with steel. When purchased new, before 1898, the cider press cost $495 or $782 with the apple elevator and accessories.
This year is the first time the family is taking the press on the road. The press, which has been inside a barn on the family farm since the mid-1970s, has been moved onto a trailer.
Since the days of all wooden presses, health regulations have changed. The press is updated with motors, plastic, stainless steel and synthetic cloths.
Over the years many parts of the press may have changed but one thing has not. The cider is still the same as it was when Grandpa Metzger ran the press, Helen Pruden says.
Heating and pasteurizing changes the flavor of cider, so the Pruden family opted for the ultraviolet light treating process. This process gets the same results, without the change in taste, they say.
Cider purchased at the site of pressing is not required to be treated, she explained. They do not add anything to the cider, making it an all natural product, which is hard to find these days.
They explain natural cider will keep for maybe two weeks, depending on the refrigeration temperature. The colder it is kept, the longer it will keep, John Pruden said.
His wife suggests freezing the cider, making sure to leave an air space for expansion. She warns people to thaw cider slowly in the sink or refrigerator and shake to mix before drinking. She says frozen cider is just as good as cider two days after pressing.
"This is the best it is going to be," she says of two-day-old cider. Her husband and son agree, explaining this is when the sugars mature.
Different apples give cider a different taste, they say.
"The larger the mix of apples, the better the cider," John Pruden says. Pure apple cider cannot have any pears included in the pressing, but adding a few makes the best cider, his wife says.
The Pruden family drinks cider year round, not just in the fall. When questioned about recipes, they say everyone has a favorite for hot spiced cider. A popular and simple recipe is dropping a cinnamon ball into the pot while heating the cider.

text: Tata Now Owns Jaguar, Land Rover, Rover, Daimler And LanchesterMatt Hardigree3/28/08 4:15pmFiled to: Industry NewslanchesterLand RoverDaimlerFordJaguarRoverTata491EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalink Apparently, we were more prescient (or slow) than we thought when we asked "Who Should Tata Buy Next?" It turns out that, as part of the Ford-Tata deal, Tata ended up owning not only the Jaguar and Land Rover brands, but also Daimler, Rover and Lanchester. Someone is going to have to re-do that chart. The story of how the names have transfered is kind of hilarious and featured under the jump. It also may have played into the mysterious $300 million that evaporated from the big deal this week. Lanchester This one is easy. Based in Birmingham, England, the Lanchester Motor Company made cars from the late 19th century until 1930 when it merged with Daimler.Daimler This one is somewhat more confusing. There's Daimler and Daimler. Daimler of Germany is formerly Daimler-Benz, DaimlerChrysler and now Daimler AG. This isn't to be confused with Daimler of Britain, which made cars using Gottlieb Daimler's engines. That company traded hands to the British Small Arms Company, then to Jaguar and then to Ford through PAG. The last Daimler made was the Jag XJ-rebadged Daimler Super Eight. With the purchase of Jaguar and Land Rover, Tata inherits British Daimler. Rover Chinese Automaker Shanghai Auto (SAIC) merged with Nanjing Auto, which purchased the struggling Rover brand and all its assets. Well, not quite all of its assets. BMW had the Rover brand years ago and never parted with the name. Unwilling to sell it to the Chinese, who were forced to call their cars Roewe, the company sold it to Ford, a better steward and a company that didn't want Rovers out there being confused with Land Rovers. But now, with this deal, that name gets transferred to Tata. This means that, in theory, we can have Indian built Nanos rebadged as Daimlers or Rovers while actual MG/Rover products are being built in China under the name Roewe. If we were Tata, we'd consider selling the Rover brand to SAIC. Advertisement Advertisement [Auto News Europe via AutoBlog]Reply49 repliesLeave a reply

small but noticeable
the delicate heart shape and classy size of this earring make it unusual and worthy of notice. I am in my mid thirties and I love them. I also think that a young girl would go crazy over these. the pink color is sophisticated and not bubble gum. the back closure is nice and tight. i definitely feel secure when I wear these earrings. i do not have a fear of loss. in essence, I would highly recommend the purchase of these earrings. no regrets here!!!

Pink topaz heart shaped studs
Love this shade and size. My only problem is they stick out too far from my ears and lean downward. Wish they had been more shallow. This is my favorite jewelry store of all time!!

Very cute studs
These studs are very cute and show up quite well even though they are small and the price was right. Some days one prefers to have just a bit of color on the ear and these do the job very nicely.

Posts broke off immediately
Although the stones are bright and pretty, the craftmanship is terrible. The posts broke off as I was sliding the backing off of them, the first time I put them on. Cheaply made and considering the cost of returning them, wasn't worth it. So I now have new, broken studs. Disappointed.

The south park episode was funny but in reality they are taking jobs. People were making a higher wage at skilled trade jobs. Companies hire illegals at a much lower rate. The people have a life based on their cost of living and a higher wage. They can't afford to take the lower paying job. So there are forced to go on employment or other social services (welfare). The illegal is working under the table but still able to get free housing, welfare, etc. That illegal is a huge tax burden and has made the skilled trademan a tax burden. You can probably search PBS for the show. There are also stats all over the internet and just a little common sense.
The people who aren't against deporting illegals or not allowing them to have services paid by us are the ones who benefit from them (own company hiring them or there corporation is affected by an industry will make larger profits because of illegals).
