Report: Shanghai launches trial of 4G mobile network
NetworkWorld.com – Jan 29, 2007
Chinese
officials have said they want 3G services up and running in time for the 2008 Olympic Games, to be held in Beijing. One issue surrounding the opening of 3G services in China has been the selection of the technology or technologies to be used. Many Chinese officials favor a home-grown standard, TD-SCDMA (Time Division-Synchronous Code Division Multiple Access), but
a TD-SDCMA rollout could prove slow because of a lack of support from equipment and handset manufacturers. The IDG News Service is a Network World affiliate.

The most telling feature of this silly drama was how **insulted** some of the locals were that their flood woes weren. t headlines again and again, and again in the State of the Union speech.

State of Florida Clearly Has a Handle on Football
Washington Post – Jan 29, 2007
Houston Texans wide receiver Andre Johnson recently wrote a check for $10,000 to his alma mater, Miami Senior High, then paid for cleats, shorts and shirts for the entire squad, head coach Frank Ponce said. Johnson also showed up to the fall football banquet and spoke to the team, Ponce said. Indeed, many of the region’s home-grown NFL stars — such as Sean Taylor and Santana Moss of the Washington Redskins — return home during the offseason, holding clinics at their former high schools and cruising their old neighborhoods in their Hummers and Escalades. Those players, some of whom also train together at the University of Miami, are a living testament to the potential rewards of a pro football career. “That motivates kids,” said University of Miami strength and conditioning coach Andreu Swasey. “They think, ‘All I have to do is go to school and get good grades and maybe I can have a career in the NFL. ‘ “Said Guandolo: “Football has done so much for our communities.

Analysts polled by Thomson Financial were looking for 20 cents a share on sales of $86. Atheros has spent the last several months broadening its business through a combination of acquisitions and home-grown initiatives. In October, Atheros acquired Taiwanese chip company Attansic Technology for roughly $72 million in cash and stock. In a separate announcement Monday, Atheros announced its latest new business, a line of wireless, Bluetooth chips. Atheros said it will initially target the Bluetooth chips at the PC market, where the company said it has existing relationships with many of the big players, with plans to eventually move into the larger Bluetooth cell-phone handset and headset markets. Shares of Atheros were up 4 cents at $24.
Dutch Citizen Pleads Not Guilty to Terrorism Charges
Washington Post – Jan 29, 2007
But no government can really be trusted, especially once it concludes that its citizenry no longer consents to be governed. Home-grown terrorist groups Bloods,Crips,KKK, etc. in the US are being brought back into society in the same way that we will eventually see Hamas and Hezbollah and Al-Qaida become legitimate. Maybe Osama will get the Peace Prize someday. Thorough police containment and infiltration will eventually erode the effectiveness of these groups.
