Craving a sensual, eat-with-your-hands dining experience? Try these recipes from Food Network hostess Ingrid Hoffman's new cookbook, "Simply Delicioso." On the menu: Mexican pulled pork and spicy-sweet guava-jalapeño margaritas.
- 1 pound (about 3 medium) russet potatoes, peeled and diced
- 1 2- to 3-pound pork loin
- 1 yellow onion, chopped, plus 1/2 yellow onion left whole
- 2 garlic cloves, smashed
- 2 bay leaves
- 12 ounces raw chorizo, casing removed
- 5 small tomatoes, peeled, cored, and chopped
- 2 canned chipotle chiles en adobo, finely chopped (seeded and ribbed for less heat)
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon dried marjoram
- Salt
For serving
- 16 corn or flour tortillas
- 4 medium Hass avocados, halved, pitted, peeled and sliced
- 1 cup fresh cilantro leaves
- Lime wedges
Baking Directions:
1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the potatoes and cook until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain the potatoes and set aside.2. Place the pork in a large pot of water. Add the onion half, the garlic and the bay leaves and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer gently until the pork is cooked through, about 45 minutes (you can cut off a small chunk and see if it is still pink in the middle). Remove the pork from the water and set it aside until it is cool enough to handle (discard the cooking liquid). Using your fingers or two forks, shred the meat into small pieces and set aside.3. Break the chorizo into small pieces and fry it over medium-high heat in a large skillet or pot, stirring often, until it is completely cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the chorizo to a paper-towel-lined plate. Add the chopped onion to the same skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the shredded pork, the potatoes, the tomatoes and the chipotle chiles and cook until the tomatoes break down and release their juices, about 15 minutes. Return the cooked chorizo to the pan and stir in the vinegar, thyme, marjoram and some salt. Continue to cook over medium heat until some of the liquid has evaporated, about 5 minutes.4. While the pork cooks, heat a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add a tortilla and warm for 10 to 15 seconds. Flip the tortilla over and continue to warm until the tortilla is pliable and heated through, another 10 to 20 seconds. Place on a plate, cover with a kitchen towel, and set aside; repeat with the remaining tortillas. (Or warm the tortillas in the microwave: Stack them on a plate and cover with a damp cloth, microwave for 30 seconds, and keep them covered until you're ready to serve.)5. Place the tinga in a serving bowl or bring it to the table in the cooking pot. Arrange the tortillas, avocados, and cilantro on a platter so each diner can fill a tortilla with some of the meat and accompaniments. Pass a bowl of lime wedges around the table to squeeze over each serving.
- 3 jalapeños
- 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons tequila
- 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons lime juice (from about 5 limes), plus extra lime wedges for the glass rims (optional)
- 1/4 cup Cointreau or Grand Marnier
- 3 tablespoons guava juice
- Coarse salt or margarita salt (optional)
Baking Directions:
1. Place 2 whole jalapeños and the tequila in a small bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and set aside for 1 day.2. Pour the tequila into a pitcher or a large punch bowl and add the lime juice, Cointreau, and guava juice. Stir to combine and chill in the refrigerator.3. If you would like to have a salted rim for your margaritas, place the salt on a flat plate. Rub a lime wedge around the rim of each glass, turn it upside down onto the salt, and then twist the glass in the salt to coat the rim.4. Thinly slice the remaining jalapeño. Serve the margarita straight up in a martini glass with some jalapeños floating in the glass, or slit one side of the jalapeño ring and hang on the side of the glass.
Ingrid Hoffmann is the host of Food Network's "Simply Delicioso" as well as the hit series "Delicioso," on the Spanish-language network Galavision/Univision, which is currently in its fifth season. Check out her first cookbook, "Simply Delicioso: A Collection of Everyday Recipes with a Latin Twist," for more meal ideas that put a Latin spin on classic American dishes.

Brandon Crawford
From BR Bullpen
Brandon Michael Crawford
- Bats Left, Throws Right
- Height 6' 2", Weight 205 lb.
- School UCLA
- High School Foothill High School (Pleasanton)
- Debut May 27, 2011
- Born January 21, 1987 in Mountain View, CA USA
[edit] Biographical Information
Brandon Crawford was drafted by the San Francisco Giants in the 4th round of the 2008 amateur draft. He was signed by scout Michael Kendall and made his pro debut that summer.
Crawford hit a grand slam in his first major league game for the Giants against the Milwaukee Brewers on May 28, 2011, off Shaun Marcum. Not only was it his first major league game, but he had never played above AA at that point.
He hit another memorable grand slam on October 1, 2014, in the 5th inning of the National League Wild Card Game against the Pittsburgh Pirates. Facing Edinson Volquez with none out and the game still scoreless, he belted a pitch into the right field seats at PNC Park to put his team ahead, 4-0, on their way to an 8-0 win. He was the first shortstop ever to hit a postseason a grand slam. The Giants went on to defeat the Kansas City Royals in 7 games in the World Series as Crawford hit .304, giving him his second World Series ring.
On May 16, 2015, he set a personal mark when he drove in 6 runs in an 11-2 win over the Cincinnati Reds; that game included another slam, this one off Mike Leake. It was a prelude to his best offensive season thus far, when he hit .256 with 33 doubles and 21 homers, scored 65 runs and drove in 84. He was named to the All-Star team for the first time and not only won the Silver Slugger Award as the best-hitting shortstop in the National League, but also displaced Andrelton Simmons as the winner of the Gold Glove, recognizing the best fielder at the position. The Giants rewarded him after the season by signing him to a six-year contract extension worth $75 million.
[edit] Notable Achievements
- NL All-Star (2015)
- NL Gold Glove Winner (2015)
- NL Silver Slugger Award Winner (2015)
- 20-Home Run Seasons: 1 (2015)
- Won two World Series with the San Francisco Giants in 2012 and 2014

Employment Discrimination Based on Immigration Status: Recent Cases Involving H-1B Visas

The worldwide economic downturn has seen a reversal in previous trends toward offshore staffing and an increase in protectionism toward home country labor. However, employers in the U.S. face potential legal liability if they favor American citizens over authorized foreign guest workers in layoffs, pay decisions, and other such actions. Thus far, employers have succeeded in defending most discrimination claims involving citizenship or immigration status—which often are made by out-of-work plaintiffs unable to afford legal representation—on technical grounds such as faulty pleading, failure to exhaust administrative remedies, filing with the wrong administrative agency, or mischaracterizing immigration claims as ones involving national origin status. These results notwithstanding, a closer reading of the cases suggests that substantive liability may be a matter of growing concern as plaintiffs or their counsel learn to correct such errors. The issues are important to both sides of the employment relationship in today's global labor market; foreign guest workers will want to better understand their responsibilities and rights, while businesses will want to better manage their legal risks. Because little if any scholarly research has addressed these matters, an exploratory case law review is presented in an effort to identify trends in fact patterns that have generated such issues. Based on the results, practical recommendations are offered for improving the management of U.S. employment relationships that involve foreign guest workers.

DORA, Ala. (AP) - A no burn order has been issued by officials in the city of Dora in Walker County because of concerns that issues with the city's pumps and water tank have lowered Dora's water supply.
The order was issued Friday by Dora Volunteer Fire Department chief Robert Busby.
Dora Mayor Chris Edwards told the Daily Mountain Eagle in Jasper the order was issued as a precaution.
Edwards said the tank is only filling to a quarter of it's usual level. He said the city won't have a problem unless the pumps stop working.
Edwards said a full tank would supply the town with water for two days. He estimated the current level could only supply eight hours of water.

I just got my Topquilt that I ordered during Black Friday. The 20degree w/ 1oz overstuff is a thing of beauty! I love it and its so warm =) Got it just in time for...
So much anticipation!!!
looks good
nice production rate ^_^
i'm #86 right now...can't wait till it comes in, too bad it wont make my new Hampshire hang in the first week of January =p
def. looks toasty
woot! just put in an order last nite for a 20f flight jacket! can't wait =) so excited! keep up the good work Paul
I have a structural ridgeline on my hammock and I use tat inside the guardian bugnet to keep the bugnet up and out of my face. I don't string up the bugnet with any additional ridgeline or string....
I have the same hardware and basic setup in my room HAHA I hang in it almost every night to sleep in. The mattress is just sorta of a platform to hold stuff now =x
the only difference is I used 2...
I'm in! Thanks a lot! =)
I started with 2 separate lines, but found it easier to adjust the tarp over the hammock w/ a crl. also it holds up against wind and weather just a tad better =) imo
Thanks for the illustration, really helps w/ deciding how much coverage you really need
I use crl and snakeskins, I just keep the ridgeline on w/ the tarp at all times, no need to break it down or separate it. It makes for a super fast set up =)
latest hang at Turkey Swamp Park =)
noice. Beautiful view!
nice idea!!
msr groundhogs all the way!
the double and the netting one I both have. they aren't bad, I slept a nite outdoors w/ the netting and its pretty comfy, and I set the double in my room as an indoor hammock =)
woo i'm still in the 20-29 range! altho I turn 30 come sept 6 lolz
I usually backpack along the AT trail so, usually I would just find a spot a few hundred feet off the trail and hammock out, u can build a small fire as long as u make the proper fire ring and...
haha very nice
I got rid of the original biners and replaced them w/ metolius fs mini biners. 22kN and at only 23g's. light weight and climbing rated =)
The bugnet is a bit on the heavy side but it gets the job done and its pretty durable. I don't even use the provided ridgeline and cut all the ridgeline clips. I have a srl on my hammock and just run...
I have the eno doublenest w/ atlas straps and profly and bugnet. Its gone through quite a bit of hanging and its still going good after 2 years so far and 3 backpacking trips and 5 car camping trips!...
ooo tat caddy's nice! I'm in! =)
i'm def. looking for local ny or tri-state area hang meets during the weekends =)
Hey all!
My names Dave, hailing from nyc! I've been hanging for a while now and been at the forum for a while and decided it was time for me to chime in =)
Love all the info you guys share and...
I just ordered me some chain links and whoopie kit for my eno's! can't wait till they come in. Thanks!
yea for the ridgeline, I sorta just tie it to the carabiners

SOURCE: Bryant, John. "Poe's Ape of UnReason: Humor, Ritual, and Culture." Nineteenth Century Literature 51, no. 1 (June 1996): 16-52.
In the following essay, Bryant traces Poe's literary relationship to humor through short fiction and contrasts it with Herman Melville's comic attitude in The Confidence-Man.
Poe's humor: the rubric seems to deny reality. To be sure, the writer knew how to use laughter throughout all of the varied genres of his canon: there is the hoaxing in "A Loss of Breath" and "Hans Pfaal," the reduction to absurdity of penny-dreadful writing in "How to Write a Blackwood Article," the satire of village life in "The Devil in the Belfry," and even the burlesquing of the detective story, his own invention, in "Thou Art the Man." But these...

In an answer to a previous question, it was stated that one should
zero-pad the input signals (add zeros to the end so that at least half of the wave is "blank")
What's the reason for this?
In an answer to a previous question, it was stated that one should
What's the reason for this?
Zero padding allows one to use a longer FFT, which will produce a longer FFT result vector.
A longer FFT result has more frequency bins that are more closely spaced in frequency. But they will be essentially providing the same result as a high quality Sinc interpolation of a shorter non-zero-padded FFT of the original data.
This might result in a smoother looking spectrum when plotted without further interpolation.
Although this interpolation won't help with resolving or the resolution of and/or between adjacent or nearby frequencies, it might make it easier to visually resolve the peak of a single isolated frequency that does not have any significant adjacent signals or noise in the spectrum. Statistically, the higher density of FFT result bins will probably make it more likely that the peak magnitude bin is closer to the frequency of a random isolated input frequency sinusoid, and without further interpolation (parabolic, et.al.).
But, essentially, zero padding before a DFT/FFT is a computationally efficient method of interpolating a large number of points.
Zero-padding for cross correlation is used to not mix convolution results (due to circular convolution). The full result of a linear convolution is longer than either of the two input vectors. If you don't provide a place to put the end of this longer convolution result, FFT fast convolution will just mix it in with and cruft up your desired result. Zero-padding provides a bunch zeros into which to mix the longer result. And it's far far easier to un-mix something that has only been mixed/summed with a vector of zeros.
There are a few things to consider before you decide to zero pad your time-domain signal. You may not need to zero pad the signal at all!
1) Lengthen the time-domain data (not zero padding) to get better resolution in the frequency domain.
2) Increase the number of FFT points beyond your time-domain signal length (zero padding) if you would like to see better definition of the FFT bins, though it doesn't buy you any more true resolution. You can also pad to get to a power of 2 number of FFT points.
3) When fiddling with the FFT points (in the previous point), make sure your frequency points end up where you want them. The spacing of the points is $f_s/N$, where $f_s$ is the sampling frequency and $N$ is the number of FFT points.
There are some nice figures illustrating these points at http://www.bitweenie.com/listings/fft-zero-padding/
One last thing to mention: If you zero pad the signal in the time domain and you want to use a windowing function, make sure you window the signal before you zero pad. If you apply the window function after zero padding, you won't accomplish what the window is supposed to accomplish. More specifically, you'll still have a sharp transition from the signal to zero instead of a smooth transition to zero.
In general zero-padding prior to DFT is equivalent to interpolation, or sampling more often, in the transformed domain. Here is a quick visualization. If you sample a bandlimited signal in time at higher rate, you get a more 'squashed' spectrum, i.e., spectrum with more zeros at both ends. In other words, you can obtain more samples in time by simply zero-padding in frequency after DFT and IDFTing the result. The same effect holds in reverse when zero-padding occurs in time. This is all because the perfect signal reconstruction is possible as long as a signal is bandlimited and sampled at least at the Nyquist rate.
The term 'resolution' depends on how you define it. For me, it means how well the two adjacent points of observation in time or frequency can be reliably (statistically) discriminated. In this case the resolution actually depends on the DFT size due to spectral leakage. That is, smaller the window size, more blurry or smeared the transformed signal, and vice versa. It is different from how often you sample, or what I term 'definition'. For example, you can have a very blurry image sampled at high rate (high definition), yet you still cannot obtain more information than sampling at lower rate. So in summary, zero-padding does not improve resolution at all since you do not gain any more information than before.
If one has any interest in the spectrum of the windowing function used to isolate the time-domain sample, then zero-padding WILL increase the frequency resolution of the windowing function.
If the time signal is $x(t)w(t)$, where $w(t)$ is the windowing function, then the overall spectrum is $X(f) * W(f)$, where $*$ inidicates convolution.
If your windowing function is a simple rectangle (an extraction of some set of values from $x(t)$. Then $X(f)$ is the sync function. So, for example, if Nfft is the same as the width of your rectangle, and you had a sinusoid at precisely one of the bin frequencies, then the samples of the sync function that would appear centered on that bin happen to fall exactly at the off-peak zero crossings, and you don't see the shape of the sync in the spectrum at all. If you now zero pad your data going into the FFT, you'll see some samples at places other than the peak and the zero crossings, revealing the shape of the sync function in the resulting spectrum. So of what use is zero-padding? It is certainly of educational use in revealing the nature of the discrete transform of windowed signals, which is the usual case. In a practical sense, it could be useful in any case where you are interested in the spectral shape of an isolated envelope riding on a carrier wave.
There can be different reasons for this depending on any processes carried out before and after the Fourier transform. The most common reason is to achieve greater frequency resolution in any resulting transform. That is to say that, the larger the number of samples used in your transform, the narrower the binwidth in the resulting power spectrum. Remember: binwidth = sample_frequency/transform_size (often called window size). You can imagine from this, that as you increase your transform size, binwidth reduces (=better frequency resolution). Zero padding is a way of increasing the transform size without introducing new information to the signal.
So why not just take a bigger transform without zero padding? Would that not achieve the same effect? Good question. In many cases you may want to analyze a stream of time domain data, for which you may be using a short time Fourier transform (stft). This involves taking a transform every N samples according to the time resolution you need in order to characterize changes in the frequency spectrum. Here in lies the problem. Too big a window and you will lose time resolution, too small a window and you will lose frequency resolution. The solution then is to take small time domain windows giving you good time resolution and then zero pad them to give you good frequency resolution. Hope this is useful for you
One additional reason I see is that zero-padding reduces the potential discontinuity at the boundary of the domain.
Performing a discrete Fourier transform implicitly assumes that the signal is periodical. Hence if the signal is not periodical, you end up with a gap at the boundary that shows up in its Fourier transform, at all frequencies. Zero-padding can reduce the energy of that discontinuity by a factor up to $2$.

WASHINGTON (AP) - When the Supreme Court last considered executions of the mentally retarded, only two states banned the practice. Now, 18 states prohibit it, and that math will weigh on the court as it reconsiders the issue and the fate of a condemned man with an IQ of 59.
The court debated Wednesday how much public standards have changed since 1989, when the court upheld those executions on a 5-4 vote.
Justice Sandra Day O'Connor wrote then that there was "insufficient evidence of a national consensus" against the executions to determine that they were unconstitutionally cruel and unusual punishment.
That question has been settled, the lawyer for convicted Virginia killer Daryl Renard Atkins told the court.
"What is your definition of consensus?" asked Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist, a question repeated later by other court members. "How many states out of the 50 do you need for a consensus?"
Attorney James Ellis didn't provide a number, but he said there are clear moral concerns about putting to death mentally retarded killers. They should be punished, just not by death, he said.
Twelve states do not execute any murderers and 18 others don't use their death penalties for the retarded.
"That's a super majority," said Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.
"We have to be very careful about finding a new consensus. We can't go back," Justice Antonin Scalia said.
President Bush has said he opposes executing the mentally retarded. Texas does not have a ban, and the state executed two retarded defendants while he was governor, according to the Death Penalty Information Center.
Pamela A. Rumpz, a Virginia assistant attorney general, told justices that public opinion would change overnight if Osama bin Laden was captured, brought to America for trial and argued that he was mentally retarded.
She also said that the death penalty is appropriate for people like Atkins, convicted of killing an airman in Virginia. Atkins had more than 20 previous felonies.

Can I Look at My Connection Objects and Schedule Details?
Updated: July 10, 2007
Applies To: Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2003 R2, Windows Server 2003 with SP1, Windows Server 2003 with SP2, Windows Server 2008, Windows Server 2008 R2
Every domain controller that is also a member of the SYSVOL replica set has to have at least one inbound connection. Otherwise, Active Directory and File Replication Service (FRS) would not replicate inbound. The /showconn subcommand is very useful to verify this especially:
- When you don't have access to the graphical user interface (GUI)
- When you find it task-oriented to directly connect to the various domain controllers from the user interface (UI) to look at Active Directory topology from the perspective of that domain controller.
The /showconn subcommand displays the connection objects for a specified domain controller. The default is the local site.
repadmin /showconn <DC_LIST> {<ServerRDN> | <ContainerDN> | <DC_GUID>} [/From: <ServerRDN>] [/intersite]
Specifies the host name of a domain controller from where to read the configuration, or a list of domain controllers separated by a space. For details about <DC_LIST>, see repadmin /listhelp.
Specifies the relative distinguished name of a server.
Specifies the distinguished name of a container.
Specifies the unique hexadecimal number that identifies the domain controller. The globally unique identifier (GUID) can be retrieved by using the /showreps operation.
Displays only those connection objects that are between sites.
Example: Simple usage of /showconn
Figure 3.7.1 shows a simple example of output returned by /showconn.
C:\>repadmin /showconn branch1 Base DN: CN=BRANCH1,CN=Sites,CN=Configuration,DC=contoso,DC=com ===== KCC CONNECTION OBJECTS ================================= Connection -- Connection name : ed5e0d25-bec3-4556-9f18-f24cf4ea3a57 Server DNS name : BRANCH1.research.contoso.com Server DN name : CN=NTDS Settings,CN=BRANCH1,CN=Servers,CN=BRANCH1,CN=Sites,CN=C onfiguration,DC=contoso,DC=com Source: HUB\BRANCH-HUB-BH No Failures.

ReplicatesNC: CN=Configuration,DC=contoso,DC=com Reason: IntersiteTopology Replica link has been added. ReplicatesNC: DC=research,DC=contoso,DC=com Reason: IntersiteTopology Replica link has been added. 1 connections found.
In the example in figure 3.7.1, there is only one connection object for the BRANCH1 site. It is also automatically created (options: isgenerated). Depending on the number of connection objects, we may have to further qualify our query to just list what we are interested in such as in the following cases:
Figure 3.7.2
repadmin /showconn BRANCH1 CN=HUB,CN=Sites,CN=Configuration,DC=contoso,DC=com /intersite /v Here repadmin contacts BRANCH1 DC and list all the incoming intersite connections for HUB site with verbose details.
Figure 3.7.3
repadmin /showconn BRANCH-HUB-BH BRANCH-HUB-BH /from:BRANCH3 Here repadmin contacts the BRANCH-HUB-BH DC which is also located in the HUB site and displays just the connection object from BRANCH3 DC to BRANCH-HUB-BH.
With the verbose switch, showconn provides you much more information such as the following:
- Connection replication schedule
- Partition Replication Schedule Loading
Figure 3.7.4 Connection replication schedule
day: 0123456789ab0123456789ab Sun: ffffffffffffffffffffffff Mon: ffffffffffffffffffffffff Tue: ffffffffffffffffffffffff Wed: ffffffffffffffffffffffff Thu: ffffffffffffffffffffffff Fri: ffffffffffffffffffffffff Sat: ffffffffffffffffffffffff
Every single number of the above represents one hour of the day as a decimal 4-bit value. Each single bit represents 15 minutes of this hour.
So if we have "1" in decimal, then one bit is set in binary (0001) and we replicate once per hour in which case the output will be:
If the decimal value is five (0101 in binary) we replicate twice per hour, for example:
Finally if it is F (1111) we replicate four times per hour:
So in our example we replicate four times per hour for the entire week.

Heritage and dialogue in South-Eastern Europe : new avenues for cooperation
The Seventh Ministerial Conference on Cultural Heritage in South-Eastern Europe, will be held on 10 June 2011, in Belgrade, organised by the Serbian Ministry of Culture, Media and Information Society, with the support of the UNESCO Venice Office. Conference participants will be coming from Albania, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Montenegro, Republic of Moldova, Romania, Serbia, and The former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, as well as from Greece, Italy, Slovenia and Turkey. Participants are expected to be represented by their Ministers responsible for culture and cultural heritage. The Assistant Director General for Culture of UNESCO, Mr. Francesco Bandarin, will also participate the meeting.
UNESCO Venice Media Advisory N°2011-05 : The event is the continuation of the regional cooperation initiative "Cultural Heritage - a Bridge Towards a Shared Future", launched in Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina, on 19 July 2004 during the celebrations of the opening of the Old Bridge of Mostar, destroyed during the war in 1993. The second Ministerial Conference was hosted by the Italian Government in Venice, on 24-26 November 2005, followed by Conferences in Ohrid (2006), Zadar (2007), Bucharest (2008) and Cetinje (2010). All editions of the Ministerial Conferences were organized by the national governments with the collaboration of UNESCO.
More information on previous Ministerial Conferences are available at: http://www.see-heritage.org/ministerial_conferences.htm
The Belgrade Conference, intended as the main regional forum for the development of cultural cooperation, will be convened at Sava Centre. The morning session will analyse progress achieved so far with the implementation of the Cetinje Action Plan adopted in 2010, focusing on the following challenges: the promotion of cultural and cultural heritage at national and regional levels; the realization of joint capacity-building activities and the exchange of good practices; the development of regional centers of excellence for the safeguarding of cultural heritage; the creation of regional networks of experts and trans-national cooperation.
The afternoon will be the starting point for discussing a new initiative on "Heritage and Dialogue" proposed by the Director-General of UNESCO, Mrs Irina Bokova. The round table, introduced by Mr. Francesco Bandarin will include also the presentation of a film produced by UNESCO on the fight against illicit trafficking of cultural heritage in South – Eastern Europe.
On 10 June 2011 at 10.00 a press conference is scheduled at 17:00.

Look at it this way. The market just got 600,000 shares of stock it needed to absorb last week. Do the math on the share price as you look at the float (change) as indirect shares come flooding into the market.
No news, no change and the stock gets an 8% haircut from it's 6.90 share price.
The "share buy-back" if and when it is established is a vehicle to stop these dips on insider delusion of shares.
What I would like to see is management taking a stand (even if temporary) of not filing any shares in the near future. Perhaps a buy of direct shares as a token of good will.
The market is not at all interested in this stock at this point in time. I would assume that Alden's ego thought the market would absorb these shares. He was proven soooooo wrong.
Good news - those shares are absorbed now. It wasn't selling per say (in my opinion) although this last dive bomb surely has spooked some more investors.
OP - This is not fundamentals talking (as you say are non existent in the market sentiment) and that is true to a point. It s simple math here.
We have 11 days up until Earnings to see if there is some accumulation of shares...
Then (Hopefully) a professional and thought out conference call by Andrus and Wescoat.
Let's see if they stop throwing toys around and out if their sandbox and start playing in the real world.
We will see....
Sentiment: Strong Buy
I would be super P.O.'d if I were you. The management is going to put the company in debt so that the insiders can continue to sell.
I would guess the stock stays pretty steady through earnings. Potential investors are on the sidelines waiting to see Q4 and 2013 guideance, plus any other comments mgnt may have on the headphone market. Lots of uncertainty around this segment as there is hardly any data or history for analysts to crunch numbers and predict the future. Skul gave hints of margin compression and that noise scared everyone away...better to error on the cautious side.
The headphone craze is very recent and it's hard to predict how it will evolve and who will survive. Skul is basically the only public company providing detailed reports and speaking about the sector, and that's only been 5 quarters. The analysts are leaning on their every word to better understand what's happening. All other companies are private or offer headphones along with other products (Sony) so we can't make comparisons within the sector to better understand... it's nearly impossible so investors are listening to a couple of analysts and sharing their brain.
The Q3 earnings and call were more monumental than anyone could ever have predicted. I am confident that if margins would have remained around 49-50%, there would have been no discussion of margin compression and the analysts would have walked away thinking Skul had lots of potential and this stock would be 20+ today. I know...alot of ifs ands and buts, but the point is that one quarter's numbers along with a 1 hour mgnt call has signifcantly changed the opinion of the headphone market and moved this stock price. OP would say otherwise and that's fine, but I think the analysts would have piled on with more buy ratings which would have attracted more big money. It could have all come crashing back down this quarter if margins compressed and the analysts did their downgrades. Point is that one quarter created a new trend, but that could easiy be reversed.
One little adder here. KOSS has been in the headphone market since the 50's. not sure how long as a public traded company but for more then a decade. They just reported and it was a disaster. They stated US sales were ok, but Europe was a bust.
They are a 35 million market cap, family run business. They were paying a 4.7% dividend, but by the looks of their EPS, they will now be utilizing cash or barrowing to pay the dividend as their EPS is less then their payout.
Just a sample and I would gather that competition has slowed them. I'm not sure of the %, but a portion of their sales is producing classical music.
Their stock trades extremely light in volume and is extremely light in institutional ownership.
Not a direct competitor of SKUL in the sense KOSS sells higher end over the ear - Bose and the likes would be there nemisis. Although they have started to jump on the band wagon by signing on Olympic skiers as spokespersons. I would say that is their attempt at stealing some of the action sports market that they must see profitable and growing (SKUL stronghold).
They didn't seem to get much share as the earnings were very weak.
I know it's an OP Hot Stock, he says its going to 8... Their quarter was terrible. Stock lost traction. I would bet they will suspend the dividend or decrease it.

2003 N.C.A.A. TOURNAMENT: EAST; Anthony Delivers For Orangemen In Second Half
By JOE DRAPE
Published: March 29, 2003
ALBANY, March 28— Now a veteran of three N.C.A.A. tournament games, the Syracuse freshman Carmelo Anthony has a mantra: ''Be patient. Let the game come to you.''
His coach, Jim Boeheim, has a mantra, too: ''They're young, often unconscious and tough on your nerves.''
Both the player's and the coach's inner voices were unerring tonight as Anthony followed a scoreless first half with 18 second-half points to lead the Orangemen to a 79-78 victory over Auburn in the East Regional semifinals.
Third-seeded Syracuse (27-5) had to weather a last-minute barrage of 3-pointers by 10th-seeded Auburn (22-12) to advance to the regional final on Sunday against No. 1-seeded Oklahoma.
For much of the second half, Boeheim looked as if he were a man standing on the ledge of a tall building, afraid to look down but too absorbed by the high-wire act to do anything else.
The Orangemen were ahead by 16 points in the first half, then by 10 at halftime and finally by 4, 71-67, with 43 seconds left.
This time Anthony, who had unleashed a pair of 3-pointers to beat back the Tigers a few minutes earlier, twisted his 6-foot-8, 220-pound frame to tip in his own miss and put Syracuse up by 6.
Still, Auburn refused to quit, and the young Orangemen aided the Tigers' comeback, missing four of five free throws in a 43-second span.
But the Orangemen's lone senior, Kueth Duany, made four consecutive free throws in the final two minutes. It was just enough to keep Auburn at bay because Nathan Watson hit three 3-pointers in the final 1 minute 18 seconds -- the last a rocket from the deep right corner at the buzzer to narrow Syracuse's lead to a point with three-tenths of a second on the clock.
The Orangemen inbounded the ball safely and Boeheim was one victory from reaching the Final Four for the third time and the first time since 1996.
''If he doesn't hit those free throws,'' Boeheim said of Duany, ''we're on our way home.''
Anthony was proud that he had waited for the game to come to him, though some physical play by Auburn's Watson and Marco Killingsworth prompted him to go eye-to-eye with them in anger and frustration.
''A lot of teams try to beat on me, but I hadn't seen defense like that and I got a little frustrated,'' said Anthony, who was 7 of 13 in the second half after shooting 0 for 4 in the first half.
''They told me they got my back and to keep my composure,'' Anthony said of his teammates.
Contrary to Boeheim's pregame contention that taking on the Tigers here in the Pepsi Arena, just two hours from the Syracuse campus, was not much of a boost, a vocal sellout crowd of 15,093 helped push the Orangemen to a 37-27 halftime lead.
Syracuse never trailed in the first half, but it was more energetic than overpowering. Anthony, who averaged 22 points and 9.9 rebounds this season, once again struggled early.
''I got everybody shots and I hit the boards,'' said Anthony, who was not overly concerned with his slow start. ''We don't need me to score all the time to win.''
Instead, the Orangemen relied on the sophomore forward Hakim Warrick (15 points) and Duany (12 points) to battle the Tigers inside.
Auburn was among the last teams chosen for the tournament field and took a battering from critics who pointed out that they had lost 8 of their last 12 games in the regular season and did not play a ranked opponent before beginning Southeastern Conference play in January.
But after an overtime victory over St. Joseph's in the opening round of the tournament and an upset of No. 2-seeded Wake Forest, Auburn Coach Cliff Ellis preferred to look ahead than behind.
The Tigers were a physical group that went to the basket relentlessly for rebounds and boasted the S.E.C.'s player of the year, Marquis Daniels, who led them with 27 points.
''We were a little intimidated in the first half -- especially our younger guys,'' Ellis said. ''But this will benefit us in the future. Our team has proved itself.''

Live Nation Nixes Some Ticket Fees
Live Nation has launched a promotion every Wednesday that eliminates some ticket fees.
"We know people hate fees," Live Nation's chief executive of global music, Jason Garner said.
"Live Nation is scrapping fees for U.S. amphitheater lawn seats this summer in a 24-hour sale on its Web site … on Wednesday. Fans will save around $9 to $12 on a ticket that typically costs $20 to $25." HOW MUCH? That's nearly 50%!! No sh%$ sherlock, no wonder those pesky people hate fees!
This is just a thinly veiled PR stunt to portray Live Nation as the good guys for cutting fees. But we know what the proposed merger of the largest ticket-seller and largest concert promoter is just going to mean that they will imbed the margin of fees inside the ticket price. It is no surprise that it attracted anti-trust regulatory attention. Let's hope that Obama says NO, this time.
"Ticketmaster experimented with its own kind of no-fee tickets starting last year when it baked the surcharges into the price of tickets for Eagles concerts." This wondrous innovation was called "all-in-pricing".
Artificially pumping prices up by embedding fees on the inside seems in contradiction to Live Nation's Rapino's grand statements back in 2006.
Concert Giant Sees Cutting Prices as Ticket to Success
"Seventy percent of people didn't go to a concert last year, and even the average concert fan only attends about two shows a year," Rapino said. "We can grow this industry by lowering prices."
I am interested by Rapino's assumption that lower prices will increase demand, that assumes a high price elasticity. This was back in 2006 before they left Ticketmaster (only to return in the mooted merger less than a year later). I think we have all learnt enough about entertainment to know that elasticity varies greatly across a diveristy of variables from artform to segment to time out from show to weather to . .. …

text: Our Pals the Israelis Are Pretending to Be CIA AgentsJohn Cook1/13/12 1:42pmFiled to: spooksIsraelTerrorismSpiesCiaIntelligenceGettypicPakistanTweetgFb132EditInvite manuallyPromoteDismissUndismissHideShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalink Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. So we should all be proud that, according to a Foreign Policy investigation by Mark Perry, Israeli intelligence officers pretended to be CIA agents so they could recruit Pakistani religious fanatics to assassinate Iranians. How sweet.Israel, Perry says, ran a so-called "false flag operation" during the Bush Administration in which Israelis claiming to be CIA agents tasked members of the the Pakistani Sunni terrorist group Jundallah with carrying out attacks against Iran. Jundallah is a radical Sunni group that hates Shiite Iran; it is responsible for some horrific attacks on Iranian civilians, including several mosque bombings. While it would be a bit tricky for Israel to sidle up to radical Muslim terrorists, they figured Jundallah might not object to taking guidance and resources from the CIA. So they pretended to be Americans. We caught on to the plot, Perry says, when the CIA investigated (false, as it turns out) media reports in 2007 and 2008 that it was working with Jundallah. Bush was reportedly incensed, but did nothing. Obama, on the other hand, decided to send a message by dramatically scaling back intelligence cooperation with Israel. Advertisement Spies are horrible and lie all the time and we do the same thing to other countries and down is up and up is down. But just remember next time you hear someone talking about our special relationship with Israel: They are taking some of the $3 billion a year we give them in military aid and using it to fund a program where they pay terrorists to kill Iranians and blame it on us.

For part I see ibid., p.1-10. Dataflow diagrams and entity life histories are widely-used tools in information systems methodologies. The tools are far more effective than natural language, though their meanings have not yet been clarified. This paper shows how the model developed in part I enables formal characterization of information systems methodologies. That is, it elaborates the meaning of DFDs and ELHs by providing a concrete example throughout. The characterization of DFDs establishes an explicit correspondence between the static structure of a business transaction system and a DFD. This correspondence illustrates the necessary components in designing the file structure of a business system. The ELH of a business system is described as the set of sequences of the system's transactions. Black hole and franchise business systems can be characterized by sequences, while the ELH of a general business system partially defines its dynamic structure

A middle-aged man with a history of family problems shot himself dead Thursday in a Paris primary school near the Eiffel Tower, in front of about a dozen stunned children.
The man, who was not affiliated with the school, forced his way into the institution in central Paris at 11:30 am (0930 GMT), pushing aside two adults who tried to stop him, Francois Weil, the city's top educational official said.
A police source said the man, who is in his 50s, had a history of family violence and entered the reception area of the school from an adjoining building and not the main entrance.
Earlier reports from police put him in his 60s and said the incident took place in a nursery school.
The man, who was in an agitated state, had some papers with him and a sawn-off shotgun, which he then fired from under his jaw. A part of his face was blown off.
"I heard a shot. I saw all the blood. I saw the man. I saw the man fall back when he shot himself. It was horrible," a schoolgirl told France's Europe 1 radio.
A psychological support team was sent to the school. Police are investigating the motive for the suicide, which came as children were leaving for their lunch break.
The La Rochefoucauld school is a private Catholic institution that also has primary and secondary sections. It is located on rue Cler in the city's fashionable 7th district, also home to several embassies.
A boy who witnessed the gruesome suicide told Europe 1 he thought "terrorists had come into the school with pistols.
"Many others cried like me. I was very scared."
Paris's Socialist Mayor Bernard Delanoe expressed his "great sadness" at the incident and his "whole-hearted support for the little Parisians who were present" at the site of the tragedy.
The mother of a student criticised security measures at the school, saying there was only one woman who monitored and controlled visitors to the school.
"Blood had to spill before security measures were undertaken," she told AFP, speaking on condition of anonymity.
Delanoe's deputy Anne Hidalgo, who is running for the mayor's job when he steps down next year, visited the school and said there had been a "rapid reaction" to the crisis.
But Rachida Dati from the right-wing UMP party of former president Nicolas Sarkozy, who is the mayor of the 7th district, said "the drama would not have unfolded... if the man had not been allowed to enter."
Education Minister Vincent Peillon cut short a visit to Brussels and visited the school on Thursday afternoon.
