Balance on the bike, an essay on the relationship between gender and cycling.Mobycon
It is clear from statistics and statements that many less women are cycling than men in the world, though they are (over) half the world’s population. With this essay we intend to rethink the reasons why women are still in the minority in comparison to men in the context of bicycle use. It is a call to the cycling world to think twice before speaking about women and cycling; that it is important to look at the issue with a more detailed and in-depth analysis and not leave it at the superficial level of fashion, as much of the mainstream media and mainstream biking world is doing. This debate must have more depth, and explore the root causes of why women are not cycling as much as men in almost all places in the world. Once we clearly define the root causes we can do the important work of changing the situation so as to bring women into the empowering world of cycling.

Este documento resume la tercera y última etapa de la primera Volta a Menorca cicloturista de 2005. La etapa de 40 km incluyó subidas empinadas y senderos estrechos a través de playas vírgenes, lo que la hizo la más difícil de las tres. A pesar de algunas caídas y picaduras, los ciclistas lograron completar la ruta y llegar a Ferreries, completando con éxito la primera Volta a Menorca.

Intel Corporation projected a 21% increase in total spending from 2005 to 2006 under GAAP. This included a forecasted 10% increase from share-based compensation and a 2% increase from spending at IMFT. Excluding these factors, Intel forecasted a 9% increase in total spending from 2005 to 2006, which included research and development expenses and marketing, general, and administrative expenses.
Intel reported a GAAP gross margin of 59.7% or $5,948 million for Q3 2005. Excluding a $140 million legal settlement charge related to an agreement with MicroUnity to resolve a patent case, Intel's gross margin was 61.1% or $6,088 million. The legal settlement charge impacted gross margin by 1.4% for the quarter.
- Intel reported first-quarter revenue of $8.9 billion, operating income of $1.7 billion, and earnings per share of 23 cents. Excluding share-based compensation, operating income was $2.1 billion and EPS was 27 cents.
- Revenue declined 5% year-over-year and 12% sequentially due to moderating PC growth rates leading to slower chip-level inventory reductions and affecting revenue.
- The outlook for the second quarter expects revenue between $8.0-8.6 billion and gross margin of 49%, plus or minus a couple points.
Intel reported third quarter revenue of $8.7 billion, a 12% decrease from the previous year. Operating income was $1.4 billion and earnings per share were 22 cents. Record shipments of mobile and server microprocessors drove results. Looking forward, Intel expects fourth quarter revenue between $9.1-9.7 billion and gross margin around 50%, and provided additional financial forecasts. Key risks include intense competition, transition to new manufacturing processes, and demand variability.
This document from Intel Corporation provides reconciliations of GAAP financial metrics to non-GAAP metrics that exclude the impact of share-based compensation. It shows adjustments made to spending, operating income, net income, earnings per share, common shares, and gross margin percentage for three months and a full year. These adjustments increase the non-GAAP numbers to exclude over $1 billion in share-based compensation expenses.
Intel reported fourth quarter revenue of $9.7 billion, operating income of $1.5 billion, and earnings per share of $0.26. For the full year 2006, Intel achieved revenue of $35.4 billion, operating income of $5.7 billion, net income of $5 billion and earnings per share of $0.86. Key highlights included record microprocessor and flash unit sales, and record mobile and server microprocessor revenue. For the first quarter of 2007, Intel expects revenue between $8.7-9.3 billion and earnings per share of approximately $0.30.
This document summarizes Intel's first-quarter 2007 financial results. Key points include:
- Revenue of $8.9 billion, operating income of $1.7 billion, net income of $1.6 billion, and EPS of 27 cents.
- Guidance for Q2 2007 includes expected revenue between $8.2-8.8 billion and gross margin of 48% plus/minus a couple points.
- Guidance for full year 2007 includes expected gross margin of 51% plus/minus a few points and R&D spending of $5.6 billion.

Intel has updated its third-quarter revenue and gross margin expectations. Revenue is now expected to be between $9.4 billion and $9.8 billion, compared to the previous range of $9.0 billion to $9.6 billion. Gross margin is expected to be in the upper half of the previous range of 52 percent plus or minus a couple points. All other expectations remain unchanged and Intel will report third-quarter financial results on October 16. The document outlines various risk factors that could affect Intel's actual results.
- Intel reported record third-quarter revenue of $10.1 billion, up 15% year-over-year. Operating income was $2.2 billion, up 64% year-over-year.

Intel announced that its fourth-quarter business will be below previous expectations, with revenue expected to be $9 billion, lower than the $10.1-10.9 billion expectation. Gross margin is also expected to be lower at 55% due to lower revenue and other charges from weaker demand. Spending is projected to be $2.8 billion compared to $2.9 billion expected previously. Risk factors that could further impact results include continued uncertainty in global economic conditions, competition, manufacturing costs and yields, and impairment charges.
This document summarizes Intel's fourth-quarter and annual financial results for 2008. Some key points:
- Fourth-quarter revenue was $8.2 billion, down 19% sequentially and 23% year-over-year.
- Annual revenue was $37.6 billion, down 2% year-over-year but up slightly adjusted for divestitures.
- Gross margin declined to 53% in Q4, down from 59% in Q3, due to higher factory underutilization and inventory write-offs.
- For 2009, Intel expects revenue to be around $7 billion in Q1 with gross margins in the low 40s, and spending of $10.4-10.6 billion
In 2007, Intel continued focusing on extending its product leadership and leveraging its manufacturing capabilities. Key highlights include:
- Revenue increased 8% to $38.3 billion and net income grew 38% to $7 billion.
- Intel launched 45nm processors designed for energy efficiency and transitioned its portfolio to the Intel Core microarchitecture.
- Demand remained strong across business segments for Intel's energy-efficient processors.
- The company renewed focus on its core strengths of Intel architecture and manufacturing leadership.
