, a leading worldwide provider of casino currency and table gaming equipment, announced today financial results for the first quarter ending March 31, 2012.</p>
</p>
<p>For its first quarter of 2012, the Company posted revenues of $15.4 million and net income of $1.3 million, or $0.16 per basic and diluted share. These results compare to revenues of $17.8 million and net income of $1.7 million, or $0.21 per basic and diluted share, for the first quarter of 2011. Gross profit for the quarter was $5.2 million, or 34% of revenues, compared to $6.3 million, or 36% of revenues, in the prior year period.</p>
<p>The primary reason for the decrease in revenues in first quarter 2012 net income was comparably lower sales of chips to casinos in Macau.</p>
<p>The Company ended the quarter with $23.6 million in cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities and no debt.</p>
<p>&#8220;We saw strong revenue growth in the United States in the first quarter, compared to last year&#8217;s first quarter, with an increase in openings and replacement orders,&#8221; commented Greg Gronau, GPIC President and Chief Executive Officer. &#8220;While sales in Asia were down in the first quarter, due to large orders in Macau with the Galaxy and Sociedade de Jogos de Macau S.A. casinos in the first quarter of 2011, we expect an increase in Asian orders for the remainder the year, as reflected in our recent announcement of three new orders for $4.7 million in chip sales to casinos in Macau.&#8221;</p>

<p>	Mom Disciplines Daughter With Humiliating Facebook Timeline Cover Image<br />
	David Cohen on April 26, 2012 11:36 AM	</p>
<section class=postcontent col-main>
<p>An Ohio mother was the source of the latest method for parents to use Facebook to discipline their kids, but at least this punishment didn&#8217;t involve gunfire.</p>
<p>WKYC-TV, NBC&#8217;s Gannett-owned Cleveland affiliate, reported that Denise Abbott of Akron responded to a display of disrespect by her 13-year-old daughter, Ava, by using Facebook to mete out her punishment.</p>
<p>The elder Abbott created a timeline cover image featuring a picture of her daughter with a red X covering her mouth, accompanied by the following text:</p>
<p>I do not know how to keep my (mouth shut). I am no longer allowed on Facebook or my phone. Please ask why. My mom says I have to answer everyone that asks.</p>
<p>The mom told the television station that while this type of punishment may not work for every parent, she believes her message was delivered, and her daughter will likely regain access to her cell phone and Facebook next week as long as she behaves.</p>
<p>And Ava Abbott told WKYC-TV via email:</p>
<p>I feel like I deserved it because I was mean to my mom and spoke disrespectful to her in front of my friends. Facebook is a big part of my social life, and its how me and my friends find out what is going on and making plans and about school work and projects. It made me realize that I didnt want my picture on there like that because all of my friends were asking me what happened and what I did. I told the people that asked me and my mom why that I spoke to my mom mean when she was doing nice stuff for me and my friends. I know my mom always makes sure I dont get away with stuff like that and I was sorry. Thank you, Ava.</p>
<p>The Abbotts&#8217; Facebook punishment tale still pales in comparison to that of North Carolina father Tommy Jordan, who fired nine rounds from his .45 into his daughter&#8217;s laptop in February after the 15-year-old posted a profanity-laden rant on Facebook about having to do chores.</p>
<p>Readers: Do you think Facebook should be used by parents as an instrument of punishment?</p>

<p>SALT LAKE CITY, May 3, 2012 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ &#8211;<br />
It is one thing to establish goals, but quite another thing to execute them. MBA programs focus heavily on strategy, but offer virtually no training in execution &#8212; and it&#8217;s execution that keeps leaders awake at night.</p>
</p>
<p>Coauthors Chris McChesney, Sean Covey, Jim Huling, and the Franklin Covey Company 				<span class="quotePeekContainer"><br />
                <span id="quote1897374815" class="quotepeekbase bgQuote down"></p>
<p><span class="bgChannel">/quotes/zigman/181354</span><span class="bgRealtimeChannel">/quotes/nls/fc</span>                        <span class="symbol">FC</span><br />
                        <span class="data bgPercentChange symbol">-0.11%</span></p>
<p>                </span><br />
                </span><br />
  have spent more than a decade studying why execution so often fails, what can be done to fix it, and what it takes to achieve Wildly Important Goals (WIGs). They have worked with more than 13,000 teams and 200,000 people in hundreds of organizations in every kind of industry, as well as in schools and in government agencies worldwide.</p>
<p>The result of their findings is an essential new book, THE 4 DISCIPLINES OF EXECUTION: Achieving Your Wildly Important Goals, by Chris McChesney, Sean Covey, and Jim Huling (Free Press/April 24, 2012/$28.00 hardcover /<br />
www.4dxbook.com    ).  The book provides a simple, repeatable, proven formula for achieving the goals you simply must reach. The 4 Disciplines of Execution (4DX) allow leaders to effectively deal with the most difficult aspect of creating breakthrough results: executing a strategy that requires a change in behavior.</p>
<p>Underlying the 4 Disciplines is the concept of the Whirlwind &#8212; the massive amount of energy necessary just to keep an operation going on a day-to-day basis. The Whirlwind is the real enemy of strategic execution. While a new strategy is important, the Whirlwind is urgent, and urgency wins out every time. THE 4 DISCIPLINES OF EXECUTION shows how to separate Wildly Important Goals (WIGs) from the Whirlwind so that breakthrough results can be achieved, while still sustaining the urgent work necessary to keep the organization running.</p>
<p>Clayton Christensen, Professor, Harvard Business School and author of The Innovator&#8217;s Dilemma, who wrote the forward for the book said, &#8220;The 4 Disciplines of Execution offers more than theories for making strategic organizational change. The authors explain not only the &#8216;what&#8217; but also &#8216;how&#8217; effective execution is achieved. They share numerous examples of companies that have done just that, not once, but over and over again. This is a book that every leader should read.&#8221;</p>
<p>J. W. Marriott, Jr., Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Marriott International, Inc., said, &#8220;Many of the foundational values of Marriott are embodied within The 4 Disciplines of Execution. By utilizing this process inside our organization, our leaders and teams have been able to set and achieve extraordinary goals, which have had a significant impact on making &#8216;Our Guests&#8217; Experience&#8217; truly remarkable.  Any organization can create these same kinds of breakthrough results if they apply the principles and processes taught in this book.&#8221;</p>
<p>The 4 Disciplines of Execution are sequential and interdependent &#8212; they must be done in order and done well to achieve breakthrough results. They are:</p>
<p>Focus on the Wildly Important. Give your best effort to those few goals that really matter instead of giving mediocre effort to dozens of goals.</p>
<p>Act on the Lead Measures. Carefully track the lead measures and let the lag measures take care of themselves.</p>
<p>Keep a Compelling Scoreboard. Make sure everybody knows the score at all times so they can tell if they are winning or not.</p>
<p>Create a Cadence of Accountability. Hold frequent, regular accountability sessions whose only purpose is to advance the Wildly Important Goals. These disciplines are deceptively simple to state, but they are not simplistic. They will profoundly change the way you approach your goals, and represent a major breakthrough in how to move teams and organizations forward. When done correctly, the 4 Disciplines of Execution lead to superb results every time.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Way back in October, Artem and I got into a debate about the quality of Androids gaming scene. I was of the opinion that there were good gaming titles &#8211; not an abundance, but enough quality titles to keep me happy. Artem, on the other hand, was of the opinion that there were virtually no good games on Android. So we put it to you, our readers. The result: gaming on Android was good, not great.</p>
<p>Fast-forward a little over six months, and there are a lot more high-quality, bigger-budget titles available on Android. So well ask it again: what are your thoughts on the state of Android gaming?</p></p>
