NXP, the independent semiconductor company founded by Philips, today unveiled a new global
single-chip LCD TV platform, which allows viewers to enjoy HD digital TV and Internet content on
mid-range TVs.
La crise économique actuelle a eu raison de l'optimisme du groupe Philips qui s'annonce
désormais incapable de tenir son objectif de doublement du gain par action promis pour 2010.
L'heure est aux restructurations et aux économies face à une dégradation de la
situation bien plus rapide que prévu.
The Dutch electronics conglomerate warned that the global economy was declining much faster and
deeper than expected, as it abandoned profitability targets for 2010 and indicated that it
anticipated a net loss in the fourth quarter
I compare the annual average beat variance of the songs in the US Billboard Top 100 since its
inception in 1958 through 2007 to the standard deviation of returns of the S&P 500 for the same
year and find that they are significantly negatively correlated. With the recent high stock
volatility, people should now prefer less volatile music. Furthermore, the beat variance appears
able to predict future market volatility, producing 2.5 volatility points of profit per year on
average. a

alt="" //abr //p pBack in the day, Marlboro sponsored both McLaren and Ferrari. The former wore the
sponsor's colors, while the latter stayed all red until Philip Morris decided to stop hedging its
bets and went all Italian. McLaren was scorned, but got even... eventually. Several years,
championships and sponsors down the road, McLaren poached European telecom giant Vodafone away from
Ferrari to be its title sponsor. Right above Vodafone's logo on Hamilton's racing suit, however, is
that of Santander, the Spanish financial concern that has been rolling out serious bucks for F1
presence the past couple of years. So Ferrari has gotten even by stealing them away./p pThe switch
for Santander, which seems to be taking an aggressive approach to the financial crisis, was
confirmed by its president Emilio Botin, to take place starting in 2010. But that's not all. Botin

Raise your hand if
you remember the movie Screamers. OK,
keep your hand raised if you remember anything other than "Peter Weller," "Philip K. Dick," and
"box office failure." Yeah, that's what I thought. It's not that Screamers is that rotten
of a sci-fi horror movie ... more that it's just OK. Not awful, but certainly not cool enough to
warrant a full-bore cult following. But that hasn't stopped a bunch of Canadian filmmakers from
unleashing Screamers: The
Hunting.
I'll embed the trailer clip in just a sec, but since
Quiet Earth did the leg-work on this item, we'll refer you to
their site for more info. Screamers: The Hunting looks pretty plain across the board,
but of course I'm always interested in seeing a video sequel to a 14-year-old sci-fi flick that
nobody talks about anymore. (I'm weird that way. Someone kick me if they ever find a trailer for
Galaxy of Terror 2.) Digging a little deeper I learned that Screamers 2 was
directed by Sheldon Wilson (Kaw,
Shallow Ground) and written by Miguel
Tejada-Flores, who used to write fun flicks for Filmax, so I'm feeling 10% better about
Screamers: The Hunting than I was ten minutes ago.
Except ten minutes ago, I had no idea Screamers: The Hunting even existed. (Oh wait,
yes I did.)
Expect the flick's arrival in the next month or two. Probably on Sci-Fi Channel, but I'll just wait
for the DVD.
In recent days, several radio hosts, including Brian Sussman, Mark Davis (filling in for Rush
Limbaugh), Lars Larson, Bob Grant, Jim Quinn, and Rose Tennent have promoted the discredited
claim that President-elect Barack Obama has not produced a valid birth certificate and is not
eligible for the presidency because he is not a natural-born citizen. As Media Matters
for America has repeatedlydocumented, the Obama
campaign has posted a copy of Obama's birth
certificate on its Fight the Smears website and reportedly provided the original to
FactCheck.org, whose staff concluded in an August 21
post that it "meets all of the requirements from the State Department for proving U.S.
citizenship." A Hawaii Health Department official also reportedly
confirmed to PolitiFact.com that the birth certificiate Obama's campaign posted on the Fight
the Smears website is valid, proving he was born in the state of Hawaii.
Further, as Media Matters has also noted, the Hawaii Department of
Health released a statement
on October 31 by Health Department
