Focusing on Core Competencies

A friend, who is a client simulation engineer for Texas Instruments, and I were recently corresponding about the New York Times article, “Cashing In Its Chips,” by Damon Darlin, on TI exceeding Intel’s performance. You can read the article at: http://www.nytimes.com/2006/07/09/business/yourmoney/09chip.html?ex=1153281600&en=a6d1f0f71158307d&ei=5070. (Free registration is required). The article describes TI’s amazing “resuscitation” since the early 1990s, in spite of the death of its CEO in 1996.

Happy 4th of July

To our soldiers everywhere:

THANK YOU! You are in our hearts & prayers!

To all Americans, HAPPY 4TH OF JULY

While the storm clouds gather far across the sea,
Let us swear allegiance to a land that's free,
Let us all be grateful for a land so fair,
As we raise our voices in a solemn prayer:

God Bless America.
Land that I love
Stand beside her, and guide her
Thru the night with a light from above.
From the mountains, to the prairies,
To the oceans, white with foam
God bless America
My home sweet home.

God Bless America,
Land that I love
Stand beside her,
And guide her,
Through the night
With the light from above,
From the mountains,
To the prairies,
To the ocean,
White with foam,
God bless America,
My home sweet home.
God bless America,
My home sweet home.
