10 Interesting Links From January 29th

  • Demolition of 107-year-old home in Denver historic district angers neighbors – The Denver Post – About two weeks ago, a neighbor, Camille Palmeri, noticed that the north wall of the brick structure had been broken through, leaving a gaping hole roughly 10 feet square exposing the entire interior to the elements. Burbano told the city the wall fell down on its own.
  • KOB.com – ‘How-to’ sex article raises eyebrows – The column that appeared in the campus paper last week is essentially a graphic, how-to-guide for having anal sex. It's more than 700 words dedicated to a subject you would expect to find in an adult book store.
  • Rank-and-file county staff reveal fear of Sheriff Joe Arpaio – Fears first spiked in December 2008, when county administrators spent $10,000 to sweep county offices for illegal wiretaps they worried had been installed by Arpaio. None was found. But rank-and-file workers still became terrified of possible surveillance, lawsuits or even arrest. Arpaio's frequent retort to critics that the innocent had nothing to worry about did not allay their concerns.
  • Southwest taking Wi-Fi fleetwide – Dallas Business Journal: – Dallas-based Southwest (NYSE: LUV) is scheduled to begin installing the equipment in the second quarter of 2010.

  • Apple A4 SOC unveiled – It’s an ARM CPU and the GPU! – Bright Side Of News* – A4 is a System-on-a-Chip, or SOC, that integrates the main processor [ARM Cortex-A9 MPCore i.e. Multi-Processing Core, identical to ones used in nVidia Tegra and Qualcomm Snapdragon] with graphics silicon [ARM Mali 50-Series GPU], and other functions like the memory controller on one piece of silicon – not unlike what Intel is trying to achieve with its future "Moorestown" Atom processor that debuted inside LG's Smartphone.
  • Target says no to farmed salmon – Minneapolis / St. Paul Business Journal: – Target consulted with the Monterey Bay Aquarium in Monterey, Calif., on a better option, and decided to go with wild-caught salmon from Alaska, which is certified as sustainable to the standard of the Marine Stewardship Council.
  • The 2010 Sonic Blast – Intel blew out the fourth quarter and is firmly on the way to historic high earnings in 2010. Wall Street initially bid the shares to a new 16-month high but reversed into a long weekend presaged by Friday's options expiration. A record 65% gross margin and 29% higher revenues than the year previous were ignored as investors decided this is as good as it gets; that its all down hill from here. Looking at the nation's dismal political news, steamrolling a health care bill few want and ignoring China's blatant attacks on American high technology, it's easy to put on the dark glasses. However alluring it is to take the past year's gains to the bank and seek safer haven, this ignores an expansive global economy and multiple technology product cycles from which Intel and other chipmakers will handsomely benefit these next several years.
  • What analysts should ask Apple | Mac | MacUser | Macworld – The point is that Apple isn’t just being contrary when it fights to keep its plans secret. If you announce a good idea a year before you can implement it, you had better be the only company in the world that could implement something that customers will think is a “good enough” version of what you promise. “Good enough” plus “cheaper” or “for sale sooner” is how the world got stuck with Windows. Apple has some precedent here. Enough said.
  • Clearwire submits flurry of wireless permits in Chandler – A company's flurry of requests in Chandler for wireless communication permits could be a sign the city – and perhaps the Valley — will soon become part of the first nationwide WiMAX wireless broadband network planned by Kirkland, Washington-based Clearwire Corporation. But company officials aren't talking.
