20 Rules All Guests Have To Follow On The Ellen DeGeneres Show
by Saim Cheeda
When we were younger, we thought the Oprah Winfrey Show would be the only talk show that would stand the test of time, but at the moment the record stands with David Letterman. However, David Letterman specialized on Late Night talk shows whose hosts generally last a very long time. Morning talk show hosts haven't shown the same kind of longevity due to the hosts generally being an actor or not having the capacity to work early mornings for long spells a time.
Oprah's been gone for almost a decade now after twenty-five years, but Ellen DeGeneres is very quickly catching up to her. The Ellen DeGeneres Show, or simply Ellen, has been on-air for sixteen years now. Ellen has made it clear she'll be considering leaving next year in 2020, but nothing's set in stone. Regardless, even if she does bow out, she'll be doing it on her own terms rather than being canceled.
Ellen has been very successful because the show used a format that has remained evergreen. She's incorporated elements that remain up-to-date with modern practices, such as social media, but at the core, her energy has remained the same. Guests on the show have always been made to feel welcome and have never shown any disinterest to be there. If you think it's a show without a format, then think again. Ellen has worked hard in perfecting her format and it wouldn't have been a success had she not employed certain rules.
To bring you up to speed, here are 20 Rules All Guests Have To Follow On The Ellen DeGeneres Show.
20 Be prepared to be jump scared
No matter what cool characters celebrities might play in the movies, almost no one is immune to the almighty jump scare that can attack them at any point. The only one to defy this has been Russell Crowe, when he easily brushed off a surprise.
Other than Russell, every guest who has been subjected to a surprise has jumped off their seat. There's no pattern to this jumpscare; Ellen has it done to whoever she wants at random. Many a time, it's a scare for even the viewers, who don't know when the camera will cut to the person doing the scaring.
19 Never have I ever questions
The 'Never Have I Ever' segment has been used criminally low by Ellen. But this is understandable considering a lot of the celebrities in attendance are repeat guests (more on that below), and so there aren't a lot of options to make this a weekly thing.
The times the game has been played, though, it's seen the celebrities being asked extremely personal questions. More often than not, these questions deviate toward intimate details or wild occurrences that spark huge cries from the audience. Guests need to be aware that these personal questions will be asked and have to take it into stride.
18 Participate in games
The biggest celebrities have never gone an episode on Ellen without participating in at least one game. If you're an actor who's starring in Captain America: Civil War or Justice League, or any film that is sure to be a blockbuster, then you will be partaking in these games.
These games are always fun and you won't find any guest complaining about them. Ellen makes sure these are very participative in nature; guests of all ages have been seen in them, such as Sandra Bullock, Chris Evans or John Cena.
17 Talk about their kids
Everyone who follows celebrities has a weird liking toward knowing everything about their personal lives. People such as the Kardashians have made a fortune simply by giving birth to children; shows such as Ellen are the reason why celebrity children discussion is a thing.
Whenever a celebrity has had a child, and is invited to the show, they've been asked how the parenting has been going by Ellen. Each time you'll find the guest talking about certain hijinks with their newborn child that shows the difficulty of parenthood. Ellen doesn't ask about the easy stuff; it's more fun to find out how these celebrities are going through the trial and error process.
16 Talk about Ellen's parties
Ellen is a very giving person, and she gives the most when it comes to her elaborate parties. Ellen doesn't distinguish much between who's invited and invites along pretty much every celebrity in Bollywood along. According to David Spade, he didn't even get a chance to talk to Ellen in her own birthday party.
Ellen's pretty swamped during these gatherings and doesn't mind if you didn't, or couldn't, stop by to say hi. When you get to her show, however, you're expected to dish out what you were up to during the party. Each time this is asked, an embarrassing situation comes out to the open.
15 No Cellphones during an interview unless it's for Instagram
As it goes with every show, it's not good manners to take out your cellphone and talk to someone while you're being interviewed. Ellen also has a similar policy where the guest isn't allowed to have their phone and be interrupted during the interview.
But unlike other talk show hosts, Ellen has one big exception to this rule; if you've got intentions to put the interview on social media. Ellen loves her Instagram, and several of her interviews have been segued into picture taking sessions to be uploaded onto Instagram. She probably got the social media bug after hosting the Oscars.
14 Be funny
Ellen is a comedian and being hilarious comes to naturally to her. But if you've noticed her interviews, she's not a natural at the process. Ellen gets rather awkward when asking questions and she sets up the guest to bring out the funny aspect.
A portion of her guests aren't comedians, yet you'll have noticed they bring on the funny when they're on Ellen. Comedians like David Spade and Kevin Hart have made her bawl with laughter because of how she sets the scene to crack up the audience. If you're going to be dry in the interview, chances are it won't work out.
13 they Usually need to be her acquaintance
Ellen makes it a point to be friends with every person who has significant standing in Hollywood. Almost every celebrity out there has their own story with Ellen as she interacts with everyone in any social gathering. This is why when a celebrity shows up on Ellen, they have instant chemistry with her – because they're already at least her acquaintance.
We've seen several guests who aren't very familiar with her, but these interviews still have conversations where they acknowledge they have at least run into Ellen once before. And if you're already her buddy, then the interview's going to be a riot.
12 Have to dance
No one is exempt from breaking into a dance on the show. The point of having a Morning show is to loosen up and have informal interactions; Ellen's show is the prime example of this.
She shows up from within the audience while dancing as the show starts, and whenever a guest is introduced the same catchy beat is put on. More often than not these celebrities will dance their way onto the stage before taking their seat.
11 Be prepared to talk about Kardashians
There are a lot of divided opinions about the Kardashians, but with almost every member of the clan having around 100 million followers on social media, clearly, a lot of people can't get enough of them. The biggest fangirl of the Kardashians might just be 60-year-old Ellen. Almost every interview she has with a big-time celebrity has a mention of the Kardashians.
She's on excellent terms with every member of the family, too, and these people have been guests on her show several times. She even had Julia Roberts dress like a Kardashian recently for an Instagram picture, not to mention dressing up as one herself for Halloween.
10 Don't be fake
The best part of being on Ellen is the fact that the celebrities don't have to pretend to be someone they're not. While shows like The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon or Jimmy Kimmel Live! have guests feeling comfortable, there's still not the air of easy-going attitude in the environment as it is on Ellen.
Guests are encouraged to be themselves and not act like they're a big deal. Ellen's charm means that guests who aren't celebrities, such as the Pizza delivery guy at the Oscars, also can feel at ease and not be starstruck or scared at the prospect of appearing on TV.
9 Talk about uneasy things
Ellen is far from the show people turn into to see a conversation about serious issues around the world. We've already established that her brand of talk show is the easy-going one where people tune into to have a laugh and a good time.
However, this isn't always the case as a number of issues like bullying, hate crimes, and social media outrage have been addressed. The best example is the most recent appearance of Kevin Hart where the actor laid bare his entire process of going through backlash from comments he made a decade ago. Ellen didn't hold back on anything here and was more serious than ever, as was Hart.
8 Discuss Social Media posts
Since Ellen is rather obsessive when it comes to the stuff celebrities post on their social media, a lot of her questions have to do with asking what these people mean when they post certain stuff. Then again, we can't just accuse Ellen here as her audience is even more animated when the prospect of finding something out is raised.
In any case, celebrities always answer Ellen's questions when the latter asks them to elaborate on a social media post. John Cena, who posts odd pictures on Instagram, also had to explain what he meant with certain pictures.
7 Talk about dating
Ellen can be seen practically squealing with delight when a celebrity shows up and openly talks about their latest relationship. Every viewer of hers excitedly watches for times like this when they can get inside information on the latest relationship going on in Hollywood, and Ellen makes sure she gets at least a sliver out of them on this topic.
Celebrities are clearly informed beforehand which questions the host will be asking as they're always happy to oblige when personal matters are enquired and dish out these details without any annoyance.
6 Be lively and upbeat
Certain celebrities always appear on talk shows and act as if they hate being there. Jerry Seinfeld is the biggest one guilty of this as he even said openly on Late Night with Seth Meyers that he hated being on talk shows.
On Ellen, guests aren't encouraged to voice their displeasure at being there and are way more animated than on any other medium. Guests are always seen lively and upbeat in their appearances; this is likely because the show's premise is to jolt people up in the morning rather than have someone droning on.
5 Come back again
Appearances by celebrities are never a one-and-done situation when it comes to the Ellen show. Her closest friends appear on her show as if it were their own house. Celebrities like Justin Timberlake, Miley Cyrus, and Justin Bieber have practically lived on the sets of Ellen what with the frequent appearances they make.
These people never look like they've been forced to be there and are just as happy as the first time they made an appearance. However, it's obvious Ellen does ask them to be on the show as much as they can be, rather than appearing only on occasion.
4 Show up after winning an Oscar
The actors who win their Oscar award usually show up on Ellen the very next morning to talk about the greatest moment of their lives. In the years Ellen herself hosted the Oscars, though, this was a mandatory requirement.
Lupita Nyong'o was the most excited guest you could find after winning her Oscar for Best Supporting Actress in 12 Years a Slave. Ellen asks these stars to dish out on every emotion they felt at the grandest stage so as to let the audience know what is like when you're invited to the Academy Awards.
3 Dress casually
Late night talks shows feature the guests appearing every time in formal clothing –the males wear suits while females usually wear rather skimpy dresses depending on the person – but on Ellen's morning show, these guests very rarely show up in formal attire. The women never wear dresses, which would be weird to wear in the morning, while men only wear suits if the occasion calls for it.
On a normal show, guests wear casual clothing that makes them look like they've arrived at a friend's house for early morning coffee. That's what the show's format is like.
2 Perform at least once
The actors who can sing do follow through in at least one of the many times they are in Ellen, while the singers always perform when they've got a new song or album coming out. This is an easy promotion for the artists as Ellen is a widely watched show while performing also comes with a chatting session.
Ellen is very hospitable to these guests and goes the extra mile to promote the latest song. If another celebrity is on at the time, they are invited along to sing as well.
1 No cursing
On late night talk shows, cursing is not allowed but celebrities get away with doing so as the audience at that time is never a young one. On Ellen, however, the ones watching are rarely adult males and it is either women at home or children watching. This means doling out bad words is a big no-no, which is understandable because the show's format doesn't suit stuff that isn't family-friendly.
The times a celebrity does curse, is when it's an unintentional slip-up and the guest can be seen looking very guilty at what they did.

It's only a ticket, right? Well, maybe.
It's understandable that most people deal with their traffic tickets, whether they feel they were just or not, by paying the fine and getting on with their lives. What not everyone understands is that paying the fine associated with the ticket is the legal equivalent of a guilty plea.
A speeding charge or comparable offense is not necessarily a minor matter. It's likely to increase your auto insurance premiums. More serious infractions can result in the loss of driving privileges, particularly if you previously pleaded guilty to other moving violations. For people in certain professions, such as childcare and various transportation-related positions, a traffic violation can mean the difference between earning a paycheck and being unemployable.
Red light cameras, timing mechanisms, and other tools that authorities use to assess whether a motorist has committed an infraction are not merely subject to malfunctions and miscalibration. Like almost any machine, the processes they support are prone to human error that can be introduced during the interpretation and analysis of their measurements and readings.
Our traffic attorneys can help you defend yourself from traffic-related charges that were made in error. If you believe you've been unjustly cited in connection with a traffic incident, contact the Delaware County offices of Raffaele Puppio.
Delaware County's Accelerated Rehabilitative Disposition (ARD) Program
Delaware County's District Attorney's Office understands that not all offenders require harsh punishment to deter future criminal activity. With this understanding, the district attorney's office offers a program for first-time offenders who are unlikely to commit another crime.

Duratrax Evader EXT2.4 - DTXD33** • (Radio Controlled Model Archive) • RCScrapyard.
RCScrapyard ► Iconic Vintage Radio Controlled (RC) Model Car Archive ► Duratrax Evader EXT2.4.
Introduced by Duratrax in 2013, the 2WD Evader EXT2.4 Stadium Truck, was available RTR - DTXD33** - and came with a Photon Speed2 540 motor, ESC and 2.4Ghz radio system.
The EP model was based on a molded plastic chassis, with a gear type differential, coil spring over oil filled dampers, dogbone drive-shafts, slipper clutch and a full set of ball bearings.
To race the Duratrax Evader EXT2.4, you need to tweak and adjust all you can to give your car improved handling, stability and grip to ease around the curves and keep you on the track. One little setting change can transform your car into a world beater. Just follow our chart to attain the most favourable Set-up to suit your particular needs on any track.
Buying a used Duratrax Evader EXT2.4 Electric Truck, or any used RC Model, has a number of advantages. It is generally cheaper than new, ready built and may come with a variety of expensive hop-ups already installed. Cheap, pre-loved bargains are always becoming available. However, depending on the age of your purchase, it may need a little tender loving care before you can take it out on the back yard.
If the body shell of your Duratrax Evader EXT2.4 is broken, ripped or damaged in any way, this can be easily repaired with rubber solution glue. Also, for added protection and if available for your Evader EXT2.4 model, fit an under guard to stop dirt and gravel entering the chassis.
If you intend to race your Evader EXT2.4 Truck model at a competitive level, I would also recommend you obtain and fit titanium pivot shafts, turnbuckles, tie rods and steering rods.
The Evader EXT2.4 steering servo is also prone to damage. In high speed crash situations, the fragile gear teeth of the servo can be broken off, rendering your expensive servo useless, so be sure to obtain a good quality "Servo Saver". Check out my Servo Information article.
If body roll on your Duratrax Evader EXT2.4 is a problem, handling can be improved with the use of stabilizers, anti roll or sway bars, stiffer tuning springs and, or, thicker silicone oil in the dampers.
Finally, good luck with your Evader EXT2.4 model and good racing.

Facing Dolphins, Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill has 'no ill feelings'

After seven years with the Dolphins, Ryan Tannehill learned after the 2018 season that the organization was moving on.
On Sunday, Tannehill has a chance to crush Miami's playoff dreams, quarterbacking the Titans against his former team in Nashville.
Revenge game?
"No ill feelings toward Miami," Tannehill said Wednesday.
Tannehill was the eighth pick of the 2012 NFL Draft. He was solid, but never played in a single Dolphins playoff game. He was sidelined with a knee injury in 2016 when Miami last made the playoffs.
In March of 2019, Dolphins owner Stephen Ross said: "I love Ryan. But you're right, how many years? It was time to move on."

Miami Dolphins Snap Conclusions:After defeat of New Orleans Saints
Flashback, March 2019:Schad: Dolphins needed more than Tannehill had to give
Tannehill loved playing in Miami. He still owns a home in Fort Lauderdale. How do folks react when they see him out in South Florida?
"People are friendly," Tannehill said Wednesday. "Just like they are most places. Mostly good experiences."
Tannehill's last game as a Dolphin was in December of 2018, a loss to Buffalo. The only starters in that game still with the team are Mike Gesicki, Durham Smythe, DeVante Parker, Jesse Davis, Jerome Baker and Jason Sanders.
"Ryan was in the locker right next to me in 2018," Smythe recalled Wednesday. "Great guy. Great football mind. One of those guys who can look at a defense and tell you subtle things the defense does. He's a great player and has been for a long time."
Tannehill is focused on Sunday's game, but he did take a moment to reflect.
"I am thankful for my time in Miami," Tannehill said. "It was a special time in my life. I grew as a player and a person. As far as people, there are not a whole lot of players left. A handful of guys. There has been a lot of turnover."
Miami tore its roster to the studs in 2019, after hiring Brian Flores. The Dolphins were trying to land a top-flight quarterback in the draft, and did so with Tua Tagovailoa.
"I'm not going to be watching film on Ryan," Tua said Wednesday. "But I have a lot of respect for the things he's done here and there in Tennessee."
Flores declined to detail any of the factors that went into Miami's decision to part with Tannehill after his arrival. But in truth, the organization had made a decision that it was very, very likely to do so, even before Flores was hired.
Flores and defensive coordinator Josh Boyer complimented what Tannehill has shown as a Titan. He has led the team to playoffs in each of the last two years.
"He's a very good player," Flores said. "Good arm, mobile, good command of the offense, makes checks at the line of scrimmage."
Boyer said any discussion about Tannehill can start with his intangibles.
"I think he is definitely a tough-minded quarterback," Boyer said. "He has the arm to make all the throws and does make all the throws. He can beat you with his feet whether it's a designed run or whether he makes a play to extend with his legs in the pass game. He makes good decisions. He makes good reads."
Tannehill is 33. On Wednesday, Titans coach Mike Vrabel said: "We want Ryan to be our quarterback for a long time."
Tannehill is under contract for two more seasons, but this hasn't been his best. He has 15 touchdowns, 14 interceptions and has been sacked 45 times. Tannehill is only 27th in the league in passer rating.
The Dolphins lead the NFL with 45 sacks and so Tannehill is fully aware of the potential dynamics at play.
"They're relentless," Tannehill said. "They do a good job bringing pressure all over the place. They bring cover zero more than anybody. They're coming after you and making you get the ball out. We need a plan for that. We have to block them. Not a lot of big name so-to-speak pass rushers. But guys who are relentless. They fight hard."
Tannehill was a polarizing figure in Miami.
Some felt he was underrated and that he would have flourished if only given a better offensive line and receiving targets.
Some felt he was holding Miami back because he was limited and did not have a championship-level ceiling.
Tannehill takes a measured approach to his time in Miami.
"You try to learn from every experience in life," Tannehill said. "Good experience. Bad experience. I grew a lot in my time in Miami. I've used both good and bad experiences to help me grow to where I am today. I spent most of my 20s in Miami."
What lessons were most important?
"You learn so many things through leadership," Tannehill said. "Being a husband and father. Facing adversity and handling success. Navigating the NFL in general, as a player. All those things were crucial in my growth."
Sunday's game

Burton Technology Academy Charter High School (Burton Tech) is an independent start-up charter school researched and developed by Alliance College-Ready Public Schools, a nonprofit charter management organization. In south Los Angeles, where other local high schools have historically had poor graduation rates, our school was designed to prepare our socio-economically disadvantaged students to graduate from high school prepared to enter and succeed in a four-year college or university. Burton Tech is located in a residential community of South Los Angeles. We offer students from the community an alternative educational environment. Our students come from four of the lowest performing high schools in Los Angeles; Locke, Jordan, Washington Prep, and Fremont.
Burton Tech is in its eleventh year of operation as one of the comprehensive charter high schools operated by the Alliance. Since its first year, it has fulfilled its mission to be a small, high-performing high school that prepares its students to graduate and enter college. The school opened in September 2005 at its first temporary location at California State University Dominguez Hills approximately nine miles from its current home. After two years of temporary locations, a new facility was finally opened. During the 2007-2008 school year, students started at what we thought would be our permanent sites, on Main Street. However, for 2008-2009, our school was located on two different campuses. Our main campus located at 9719 S. Main Street, which housed 346 10th -12th grade students. Our 9th grade Academy, with an enrollment of 137, was located at 100 E. 49th Street in Los Angeles.
Since opening its doors, Burton Tech has attracted students from local middle and high schools in the surrounding neighborhoods. In the beginning our students were drawn from Markham MS. Now after moving a few times and with the raising of Alliance College-Ready Middle Schools, our student population has expanded to include Bret Harte MS, Bethune MS, Gompers MS, Skirball College-Ready MS and now College-Ready MS #4.
As with all Alliance schools, BTAHS began with a class of ninth graders and added one grade level each year, rounding out fourth year with its first graduates, the class of 2009. Over the past seven years, BTAHS has consistently met and exceeded its enrollment targets, growing from a school of 200 to 600 students. For the 2010 - 2011 school year, BTAHS conducted its first state-sanctioned lottery to determine freshman admittance, since a surplus of families formally applied to the school. Since BTAHS charter specifically states that it will be a small school, the number of students will not exceed its current enrollment despite its growing popularity as a school of choice.
For the 2010 - 2011 school year BTAHS also moved to its brand new permanent home, located at 10101 South Broadway. For the first time all of our students were under one roof. 2012-2013 marks our third pilot year of our 1:1 computer initiative and blended learning model. As our students and the field of eduction evolves, so will BTAHS. We will always strive to provide the students of south LA with the tools they need to succeed.

Eric's Top 5 (Chinese) Games of 2013
Eric Jou
Filed to: 2013 in reviewFiled to: 2013 in review
The year is coming to an end, and lists seem to be the thing to do right now—so I'm jumping on the bandwagon.
Unlike the rest of the Kotaku crew, I'm relegated to a part of the world where mainstream games and the like aren't released. Traditional gaming platforms such as consoles are a gray market commodity and a solid internet connection is wanting. So in a bit of a departure from Richard's, Tina's, Luke's, Fahey's and Jason's posts (and whatever posts that will come), I'm going to go with the top 5 Chinese games that I've played in 2013.
Richard's Top 10 Games of 2013
When it comes to a list like this, it's important to know why I enjoy gaming. Frankly, it's the…
Of course that doesn't mean I haven't played any other games besides these. I really enjoyed The Last of Us, BioShock Infinite, The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds, but this list is, for diversity's sake, China-oriented. One thing to keep in mind: this is just my list. Chinese companies and websites will pull out their lists around February for Chinese New Year, when the "year ends" in China.
I'm not really sure what to write here except that this game is pretty awesome. Developed by Sega in partnership with Chinese publisher and developer Perfect World, Saint Seiya Online takes the player into the fictional world of the Japanese manga Saint Seiya. Getting to play as one of Athena's saints is quite the kick, and this is a great game for Saint Seiya fans.
On top of the awesome source material and the pretty cool graphics, this game has some of the best Chinese voice acting around. Also... every time I beat up a bad guy, I can't stop myself from shouting "Rozan Sho Ryu Ha!"
Developed by South Korea's NCSoft, Blade and Soul is probably my favourite online game that I've played in a while. If Saint Seiya Online wasn't based on, well, Saint Seiya, I'd probably be playing a lot more of Blade and Soul over SSO.
Everything from the deep and super customisable character creation to the combo-based battle system, Blade and Soul is one of most fluid online multiplayer games released in China to date. It's kind of a shame that it wasn't released earlier.
Perhaps China's take on Diablo, Asura Online is one of China's best home-developed games of 2013, if not one of the best from the past three years. My co-workers at my day job might not be too keen on it, but I really like it.
At the same time expanding on and deviating from the popular source materials often found in Chinese online games, such as Three Kingdoms or Journey to the West, Asura Online depicts the turmoil between demons and humans, all wrapped up in a martial arts fantasy.
What happens when you take popular fictional characters and throw all regard for intellectual property aside? You get the Chinese League of Legends/Defense of the Ancients clone 300 Heroes.
Like every other online battle arena game to date, 300 Heroes doesn't change the formula up much. That doesn't matter. In what other game can you play as Donkey throwing Shrek around the battleground?
Continent of the Ninth Seal, AKA C9, escaped my radar for most of 2013. While it was heavily advertised during this year's China Joy, for some odd reason I never got around to playing it.
Of all the games I've played in 2013, I've probably spent the least amount of time playing this one, but I'm confident enough to say that this is one of the best online games released in China this year.
Developed by South Korea's Cloud 9 and published by Chinese WebZen, C9, like Blade and Soul, is graphically pleasing and simple to play. Similarly to B&S, the combat is based on combos. What makes this game different from all the other MMOs in China is that it's an action-oriented game. The player can roll, dodge and jump away from blows in combat. Western players might also be glad to know that this game has an English release.
While these games are my favs for 2013, there are still loads of games to come in 2014! Monster Hunter Online and Call of Duty Online have both gone into beta and should be available to the masses soon. With investments from and co-development with foreign game studios, Chinese gaming is gradually getting better.

Whitebark is a 175-seat grill restaurant and bar that opened within the Westin Monache Resort Hotel. The design is inspired by the rich history of the Mammoth area: its logging legacy and proximity to Yosemite National Park, Mono Lake, and Devils Postpile National Monument. The interior echoes the beauty of the eastern slope of the Sierras and the immediate recreational amenities of Mammoth Lakes. These elements are reflected in the materials which include recycled lumber, cold-rolled steel, rough-milled bar tops, cable-hung granite rock, a rough log fireplace surround, and wallpaper made from digitally altered topographic maps. The materials are combined to create a contemporary, rustic, alpine atmosphere that is versatile and inviting.

Shares in TSMC, UMC unaffected by buyout deal
STAFF WRITER , WITH AGENCIES
Both Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co (TSMC, 台積電) and United Microelectronics Corp (UMC, 聯電) yesterday saw their share prices rise on the local bourse, despite Advanced Micro Devices Inc's announcement on Monday that it would acquire ATI Technologies Inc for US$5.4 billion.
Shares in TSMC, the world's largest made-to-order chipmaker, climbed 1.7 percent to NT$53.8 on the Taiwan Stock Exchange, while UMC's rose 0.3 percent to NT$18.
While ATI, the largest maker of computer graphics chips for laptops, outsources the manufacturing of its chips to Taiwanese makers, the merger news had a limited impact on TSMC and UMC shares, analysts said.
"ATI will keep its foundry partnership with TSMC, and AMD isn't likely to change its manufacturing strategy. Anyway, it is too costly to switch to another foundry," KGI Securities (中信證券) analyst Tiffany Chen said.
TSMC yesterday assured its investors that its partnership with ATI remains unchanged.
"Based on our discussions with ATI, our business with them will continue as usual after its merger with AMD. This merger will not affect ATI's relationship with TSMC," the company said in a statement yesterday.
"As part of AMD, ATI's business will continue to operate a fabless business model and maintain its strong foundry partnership with TSMC," it said.
At a briefing in Taipei yesterday, Henry Richard, executive vice pres-ident of AMD, and Rick Hegberg, senior vice president of ATI's global sales, also said there would be no changes in their relationships with local partners in the short term.
But Richard said AMD may produce its own processors in the future, if the new firm were able to develop special silicon components that could successfully integrate both the central processing unit and the graphic processing unit.


Wait, you claim you know the New York Times Book Review better than their own editor does, and accuse her of mendacity for disagreeing with you? I can't think of any explanation for this post other than (a) you hacked into their systems, a federal crime, (b) you're dishonest, or (c) mentally ill.
Speculate all you want, "Jan Hernandez." But unlike you, I have the stones to use my real name.
I was in the same audience, Edward, and I think you got a raw deal. I understood you to be asking why publishers are less likely to take a risk on edgy, experimental fiction from female authors. And then everyone on the panel and many in the audience collectively gasped and shuddered, and I started to question whether that actually *was* the question you were trying to ask, or whether the group assessment that you were there as a troll was accurate. I'm glad to see that my initial impression was correct–and I wish the panelists a) hadn't jumped to the wrong conclusion, and b) had taken the time to consider something that is actually worth discussing.


Both entities have signed a framework agreement to develop a program of activities addressing patient adherence to treatment.
ESTEVE and SEFAC will work together to implement programs devoted to strengthen chronic and polymedicated patient adherence to treatment in community pharmacies.
The actions launched in the framework of this plan will seek to develop and complement the goals set in the Treatment Adherence Plan prepared by scientific societies and patient associations with the support of Farmaindustria.
ESTEVE and the Spanish Society of Community Pharmacy (SEFAC) have signed an agreement whereby both entities will collaborate in the development of a program of activities to foster and implement a treatment adherence plan in community pharmacies over the next two years. The agreement was signed by Jesús C. Gómez, president of SEFAC; Eugeni Sedano, director of Institutional Relations at ESTEVE; and Joe Sullivan, managing director of ESTEVE Farma.
The increase in our aging populations and polymedicated patients has an impact on increasingly poor adherence to treatment. The current situation in Spain is as follows: in 2050 it will be the second country with the world's oldest population; chronicity already accounts for 80% of primary care visits and 60% of hospital stays, mainly unscheduled admissions; and 40% of multicondition patients suffer from three or more chronic diseases, and 94% of these patients are polymedicated. All this has and will bear direct consequences on the efficiency of the available resources and on the rational use of medicines.
SEFAC was one of the societies to actively participate in the preparation of the Treatment Adherence Plan designed by several scientific societies and patient associations with the support of Farmaindustria. Hence the reason for this strategic agreement signed between ESTEVE and SEFAC to implement a therapeutic adherence plan in community pharmacies. According to SEFAC president Jesús C. Gómez, "community pharmacists play a vital role in improving adherence to treatment in collaboration with the rest of health professionals. This is so on account of their knowledge of medicines, their proximity and accessibility, and their close relationship with patients and caregivers". In addition, "pharmacists can control whether or not the patient is well aware of his/her treatment and knows how to take it as prescribed, and can also detect therapy-related problems such as dropouts".
For his part, Joe Sullivan, managing director of ESTEVE Farma, emphasized "ESTEVE's commitment to chronicity and to the creation and development of useful tools to help health professionals -community pharmacists in this case - in their daily tasks of treating and caring for chronic patients. The purpose is to enhance the pharmacist's role and the assistance they can bring to the chronic patient. This plan will contribute to increase control over these patients, which in turn will benefit the patients themselves and the system".
For this plan to be implemented, ESTEVE and SEFAC will launch a number of actions, starting with the design, validation and dissemination of fact sheets with recommendations on adherence guidelines for the population. Messages will be specifically directed to complex, higher-risk patients. Another initiative will consist in developing an algorithm of proceedings in the pharmacy to establish an agreed methodology for the collection and exploitation of adherence data. All will seek to develop and complement the goals set in the Treatment Adherence Plan signed by scientific societies with the support of Farmaindustria.
From then on, this plan will also address the launch of capacity-building programs in pharmacies for chronic and polymedicated patients, promote the use of technologies, and bring support to patient associations.

Liefs or Langgaard. Something about the relaxed tonal flow suggests late-Romantic training, however it's eccentrically applied. Honestly, I can't make out the language. However, I wouldn't be surprised if it's Schoenberg's Op.8 exactly as the previous writer suggested.


In the previous tutorial we looked at the process of creating isometric icons of the building with the help of transformation effects and Phantasm for quick coloring of different projections. Today, using action feature we will make the process automatic. After this, creating isometric icons in Adobe Illustrator will only take a few seconds. Accelerate to speeds of space!
Create graphic styles, using effects, which we described in the previous tutorial. Let's make an arbitrary object and apply two transformation effects to it (Object > Transform & Distort > Transform …), that correspond to the deformation of the left isometric plane.
Turn off the fill and stroke of the object. These are extra attributes of the style.
On the basis of this object, create a graphic style, name it Left.
Apply to our object Brightness / Contrast effect (Effect > Phantasm > Brightness / Contrast …) and reduce the value of Brightness. This effect will allow us, if necessary, to quickly shade objects of the left isometric projection.
Based on the object create a graphic style, and name it Left shadow.
Remove all the effects of the selected object in the Appearance panel.
Now apply to the object two transformation effects (Object > Transform & Distort > Transform …), that correspond to the deformation of the right isometric plane.
On the basis of this object, create a graphic style, and name it Right.
Apply to our object Brightness / Contrast effect (Effect > Phantasm > Brightness / Contrast …) and reduce the value of Brightness. This effect will allow us to shade objects of the right isometric projection.
Based on the object create a graphic style, name it Right shadow.
Remove all the effects of the selected object in the Appearance panel. Now apply to the object two effects of transformation (Object > Transform & Distort > Transform …), that correspond to the deformation of the top isometric plane.
We apply our object Brightness / Contrast effect (Effect> Phantasm> Brightness / Contrast …) and increase the value of Brightness. This effect will allow us to quickly lighten all the objects of the top isometric projection.
Based on the object create a graphic style named Top.
Now let's create Isometric actions. Open the Action panel (Window > Actions) and create a new set, by pressing the corresponding button in the panel. Name this set, Isometric Actions.
Click on the Create New Action button in the Actions panel and name it Light from Left, then press the Record button. Here we assume that light is distributed from left to right, which means that the right side of the isometric projection must be shaded.
In the process of creation action, we will use flat projections of the house from the previous tutorial. Pay attention to the fact that the elements corresponding to one projection should be grouped up together.
In addition, left projection is located at the bottom of the stack in the Layers panel, and then comes the right and top one.
Select the left projection, then press the Left style in Graphic Styles panel, holding the Opt / Alt key (Opt / Alt adds all effects to existing styles).
As you can see, the style has been successfully applied, and the action is recorded to the action.
Go to Select > Next Object Above. This will lead to the selection of the group, which corresponds to the right projection. This action will instantly be recorded to the Action.
Apply the Right shadow graphic style to the group, holding Opt / Alt key. Due to the effect of Phantasm Brightness / Contrast all the elements of the right projection were shaded.
Go to Select > Next Object Above. This will lead to the selection of the object that corresponds to the top projection.
Apply the Top graphic style to the object, holding Opt / Alt key. Due to the effect Phantasm Brightness / Contrast, this object was lit.
Select all the objects (Select > Select All), then go to Object > Expand Appearance. Unfortunately, this action is not automatically recorded to the Action. For recording choose Insert Menu Item in the fly-out menu of the Actions panel.
Proceed to Object > Expand Appearance again.
Finally, go to Select > Deselect. Now click on Stop in the Actions panel.
Check the operation of an Isometric action.
It took less than 2 seconds to create and color three isometric projections from flat design!
Save Isometric Actions. To do this, choose Save Actions … in the fly-out menu of the Actions panel. After the work of any of the actions set up we just need to correctly position the projections and draw necessary details. About how it can be conveniently done using ColliderScribe read the first part of the tutorial "Create an isometric icon with transform effects and Phantasm in Illustrator".
Unfortunately, in recent releases of Adobe Illustrator (CS6-CC2014) some parameters may randomly disappear in the downloaded actions after closing the application. If this happens, remove the Isometric Actions in the Actions panel, and then load them again (select Load Actions … in the fly-out menu of the Actions panel).
Now you have a handy tool to create isometrics in Adobe Illustrator in seconds.


The Cambridge Analytica scandal, Facebook's algorithmic turbulence, API changes, and the arrival of GDPR—2018 brought big shifts to our industry.
As we enter the final days of 2018, I'd like to take a look back at the 8 moments that changed social media this year. I'll also offer a few actionable tips and resources you can use to adapt to these new changes.
While I'm looking in the rearview mirror, our research team at Hootsuite has been busy researching the future. On December 5th, we launch our 2019 Social Trends report and webinar. You'll learn the new forces shaping social media in 2019. Save your spot here.
The year began with a roar. On January 11th, the Prince of Palo Alto, Mark Zuckerberg, made an announcement on his personal Facebook page.
"We've gotten feedback from our community that public content—posts from businesses, brands and media—is crowding out the personal moments that lead us to connect more with each other," Mr. Zuckerberg explained.
News-focused content, especially publishers with little-known brands or niche topics (read: fake news and extremist politics).
While it was clear that content would have a harder time gaining organic traction, Facebook suggested new ways for brands to approach content distribution on Facebook.
For example, Facebook explicitly stated that "page posts that generate conversation between people will show higher in News Feed." Live videos, for example, often create more discussion and interaction than passive content. According to internal data from Facebook, live videos on average get six times as many interactions as regular videos.
Facebook Groups—which now count 100 million members—have also been touted as new sources for brands to build customer communities and increase their organic reach.
In 2018, data privacy took center stage. Soon after the Cambridge Analytica scandal—in which a political consultancy accessed 87 million Facebook profiles—Zuckerberg was called to Congress. He testified at two hearings in two days, with 10 hours of questioning from 91 lawmakers.
Zuckerberg's appearance in Congress was political theatre. But marketers felt the effects of this political pressure. Facebook soon restricted access to their APIs, (affecting platforms like Hootsuite and our competitors), restricted ad targeting options, and reduced many of the granular ways marketers could target with features such as custom audiences.
If you're like me, you've been leaking personal data all over the internet since 1999. Weak passwords, my indiscriminate clicking of 'Which Friends Character Are You?' Facebook quizzes—my privacy life is a hot mess!
While consumers tend to leak data online, The General Data Protection Regulation (or GDPR) is designed to protect them against unscrupulous companies.
In the past, it was assumed that things like social security numbers, physical addresses, email addresses were personal. But GDPR expanded the scope of personal information to include things that marketers typically exploit such as IP addresses, behavioral data, location data, biometric data, financial information, and much more.
If you work at a large company, you likely had a team responsible for making sure your marketing programs are GDPR compliant.
If you work as a consultant or at a smaller company, do you really need to care about GDPR?
Complying with GDPR takes a bit of work and would be too much to explain in this blog post. This resource from Reforge, a growth marketing blog, is the most practical guide I've found. It also includes a fantastic explanation of what consent means in a GDPR world.


PhoneGap getting started guide is helpful for Windows and Mac users. But Linux users (Ubuntu distro mainly) left in dark.
Now set up the PATH for your Android SDK. Open the terminal and type the command below.
If your Android sdk is in differnt path make sure to change the path I've given above.
Now run the following command to create a test project. This is same as what is given in PhoneGap's documentation.
Now follow the PhoneGap documentation and import the created project into your Eclipse work environment (or any other IDE you use).
If you get permission denied error message make sure that the files inside the bin folder has executable rights. In above line of command, the "testproject" is newly created. So make sure there is no folder already exists with that name. If you have a folder exist with that name already you will get error message.
Let the PhoneGap dev begin in Ubuntu <3.

New Yorkers will never know what could have happened if Amazon had agreed to take $3 billion in tax breaks and subsidies to build its Long Island City "HQ2," instead of taking its helipad and going home. Or maybe not. The New York Times on Thursday reported that residents in Northern Virginia's Arlington County, the other lucky locality that got picked amid a rabid bidding war for Amazon's second headquarters, is driving up prices in what was an already expensive housing market.
"Speculators have begun asking homeowners to sell. Potential home buyers, typically younger, are holding off buying to save more money for down payments. Low-income renters are worried about rising rents and about how they will afford basic necessities."
The paper goes on to quote several working class residents who have seen their housing costs climb, including a woman named Gloria, who works as a housekeeper. "Before in the past, every time the rent were to increase, it would only increase around $15 monthly. But now they increased it up to $75," she said.
One homeowner, Benedetta Kissel, said her son was forced to move to Maryland because the Arlington area had become out of reach. "Many people's children can't afford to live in their hometown due to high rents and home prices," she said. "Amazon will only make this worse."
All told, Amazon received $773 million in combined incentives from Virginia, far less than what New York offered. Nonetheless, local housing and community advocates are already wondering whether state and county officials got enough in return. "I don't think we as a community and leaders did enough upfront to focus on affordable housing with Amazon," Julius D. Spain Sr., the president of the Arlington chapter of the N.A.A.C.P. told the Times. "How are our families who are earning $20,000 to $60,000 a year going to sustain and afford to live in a place such as Arlington?"
According to one report, the median home price in Arlington County is set to jump by 17.2 percent by the end of the year. And just last month, the Washington Post, which is owned by Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, reported that investors have been snapping up properties to turn into rentals.
In addition to the Times' story, the Wall Street Journal reported that Amazon's pullout, which was originally described as death knell for New York's plan to grow its tech industry (Governor Andrew Cuomo, who was ultimately in charge of brokering the deal, called its collapse "the "greatest tragedy that I have seen since I have been in government.) hasn't stopped other companies like Google, Facebook and Uber from making big expansions in New York. Amazon has itself been rumored to be looking for additional office space in the city.
The news amounts to a dose of vindication for New Yorkers who opposed the deal like Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and State Senator Mike Gianaris, both of whom were branded "jobs killers" in the aftermath.
Well, just as we said, Amazon quietly came to NYC without needing a dime of public money or special tax treatment.
The jobs came without the cost.
NYC is an attractive place to locate on its own (incl. public infra!), w/o billions of dollars in corporate giveaway "incentives." https://t.co/dOXWljLHcO

Gianaris later told Gothamist, "There's no question that the long term will prove that Long Island City did it right. You're starting to see it. Tech is continuing to boom in New York even without Amazon."
In other words, five months later, New York seems to be handling its breakup with Amazon just fine.
