Opening Jewish Conversations, Opening Jewish Community
Flashback: a few weeks ago, on this very blog, a post about Jewish conferences is published… authored by yours truly (shameless, right?). The piece was about how valuable such gatherings are – so valuable that they should be placed above sleep on our collective priority list. Just weeks after writing that piece, I found myself in Cambridge, Massachusetts for… you guessed it: another Jewish conference.
I was at Harvard University for the weekend conference, along with a few hundred others from around the country – in fact, 8 states out of the 13-state ISJL region were represented there! We had all come together for the first-ever conference of Open Hillel.
Open Hillel is a campaign that seeks to broaden the parameters of permissible conversation about Israel and Palestine at Hillel chapters around the country. Those who attended this conference feel that the value of machloket l'shem shemayim, spirited debate for the sake of heaven, should manifest itself even on the question of Zionism; that especially on questions related to Israel and Palestine, which often touch us in the deepest corners of our neshamot (souls), we should be open to a vast array of differing perspectives. Open Hillel believes that all Jews – even those who aren't Zionists – deserve to be heard and included in Jewish communal conversations.
I learned an unbelievable amount at this inspiring event, attending sessions about human rights, the bounds of the Jewish "Open Tent," even exploring issues like intermarriage and gender identity. I met wonderful students, recent college graduates, and older community members who were united by their desire to lay it all on the table – to staunchly debate the topics about which we disagree and, as a result, to grow in our knowledge of the issues.
But I had a funny thought while at this conference. Does it relate to my work at the ISJL at all?
The ISJL serves a geographic region; my department, the education department, specifically serves religious schools. The premise of our work is that every Jewish child should have access to an excellent Jewish education. We serve communities with twenty-five students, or five students, or even one single student. They receive access to the same resources that a community with 300 students gets. Every community is welcomed, and none is valued more than any other.
Open Hillel does not serve a particular geographic region. It does, however, serve a Jewish constituency, including a group which, like smaller communities, is occasionally overlooked: those whose perspectives differ staunchly from many Jewish institutions' stances on Israel and its policies. Open Hillel recognizes that, regardless of any individual's political stances about Israel, our Jewish institutions must provide a space for all to engage equally; that every Jewish person should have access to an excellent Jewish community.
I believe our Jewish community can and must uphold the ideal of "Eilu v'eilu div'rei Elohim Chayim" – "These and these are the words of the Living God" (Talmud Eruvin 13b). In Talmud, in our synagogue board meetings, and even at our dinner tables, we engage in rigorous debate about issues we deem important. Valuing and participating in debate is not merely part of being Jewish – it is perhaps the basic premise from which the rest of our tradition follows.
Though the focus areas are different, Open Hillel addresses issues of inclusion and empowerment– as does the ISJL. The ISJL knows that the existence and experiences of our wonderful Southern Jewish communities might be totally unknown in other places. Through our work, we build awareness and ensure that Southern Jews are viewed as a vital piece in the beautiful puzzle that is American Jewish Life.
Open Hillel wants to do something similar by demonstrating that harsh critics of Israel – even Jews who are not Zionists – are a crucial part of our community's make-up. That so many of these people, who some might believe are just apathetic about their Judaism or actively "self-hating," are as deeply in love with their Jewish identities as those who think differently. The goal these organizations have in common is to foster a diverse Jewish community that will thrive for centuries.
That goal can and should be our Jewish communal Torah. The rest is commentary. Let's go and do it.

Team Jewish
Jews get lumped together a lot. Polls refer to "the Jewish vote." We hear about the "Jewish response." Labels of Jewish are smacked across everything from "Jewish humor" to "Jewish tradition" with little acknowledgment that Sarah Silverman's fans aren't necessarily Mel Brooks enthusiasts, and the traditions found in one Jewish household may vary wildly from the traditions found in a household one state over… or just down the block.
When representing a "Southern Jewish" organization, I've been asked frequently what makes "Southern Jews" different from "Northern Jews." My response keeps evolving, but I do think there's a difference.
There's a difference because we are all products of our environment. With the exception of communities that choose to be expressly insular, we are all shaped by multiple forces. The Southern Jewish experience, particularly the small-town Southern Jewish experience, is one shaped by having fewer massive Jewish organizational infrastructure, and more overtly Christian neighbors. It is shaped by the music and the culture of the place, as is any other ethnic or religious group living here. In many ways, Southern Jewry has its own flavor, metaphorically and literally. It is connected to the larger Jewish experience, while being unique.
The same is true of Argentinian Jewry. Or Japanese Jewry.
There's a difference. But there's also something more. There's connection– and there's conflict.
Ever since Jews started living in different places, we have always had things that have distinguished us. But now, more than ever, we seem to have an increasing number of things that not only distinguish us but also divide us. While the larger world might continue to lump us together, it is harder for many of us individual Jews to do so.
From egalitarianism to the equality movement, interfaith families to Israel, we are a polarized people. And in an era where we out our positions on Facebook, contend with new issues daily, our differences are surfaced quite quickly and clearly. When Jews are united on… well, probably nothing… how do we connect?
How do we remain "a people," whatever that means?
I don't know. But I do know this: somehow, we do. Somehow, there is still a Team Jewish affiliation that transcends Just-Southern-Jews or Just-Progressive-Jews or Just-Conservative-Jews. The team spirit doesn't stop simply at our politics, be they progressive or conservative, or at our address, be it in the American South or South America.
It's hard to define, this invisible thread. It's a gut feeling. It's our hearts twisting when the Holocaust is mentioned, and getting riled when it is invoked unjustly (even if our definitions of "unjust use" vary). It's our ears perking up when there's a mention of Something Jewish in the news. It's feeling deep pride (maybe over different things) and feeling deep guilt (definitely over different things) and it's wrestling, and wrestling, and wrestling.
Somehow, there still is a Team Jewish. But we sure are passing/throwing/swatting/
We feel it, but we don't always show it. Or we show it in different ways. And we disagree, more and more heatedly. And there are seismic shifts and growing rifts in what that tricky "Jewish vote" looks like to the rest of the world, too.
What does that mean for the Jewish future?
Well. I don't know that, either. But I'm pretty sure there will be a Jewish future. So that's something.
At various times in my life, my own observance, stances, and struggles have varied. So too have the commitments and connections that kept me playing for Team Jewish. This has been one of those years where it's challenging to define what exactly those "ties that bind" me might be, as the world continually unravels.
But I keep going to the mat.
Or the stadium. Or whatever.
What are your thoughts? From the cultural to the religious and the inane to the innate… what makes or breaks Jewish identity? How much is it shaped by where you live and what you experience?

Operation: Understanding – Our History, Our Present
Yesterday, the ISJL hosted students from Operation Understanding, an organization whose mission is to develop a group of young African American and Jewish leaders knowledgeable about each other's histories and cultures to effectively lead the communities of Philadelphia, PA and Washington, D.C. to a greater understanding of diversity and acceptance.
I thought I would share with our readers here a little of what I shared with the students in our office.
Having taught high school history for a number of years, I was thrilled to have the opportunity to do a presentation for teenagers on the relationship between Southern Jews and African Americans. This is not an easy talk to give to any age group, because while we like the stories of Jews fighting for civil rights, the historical truth is that those were primarily Northern Jews; most Southern Jews were not actively involved in fighting against the white hierarchy of the South.
Jews in states like Mississippi lived in a climate of fear and intimidation. Southern Jews were acutely aware that any challenge to white supremacy would result in serious social and economic consequences. Synagogue bombings, threats of economic boycott, and violence directed against civil rights workers convinced a lot of Southern Jews to remain relatively silent.
African American activists faced the same challenges, but to a much higher degree. James Chaney – one of three civil rights workers murdered during Freedom Summer by members of the Ku Klux Klan near Philadelphia, Mississippi – struggled to find support for civil rights among his local community. They were afraid of falling prey to what ultimately happened to Chaney. Chaney knew the risk and accepted it, paying dearly for his bravery. Following his death, his mother Fannie made sure that James' younger brother Ben would follow his brother's footsteps. I can't imagine the kind of courage that would allow a mother to risk such a sacrifice, but she did, and Ben is still an active advocate of civil rights today.
Rabbi Arthur Lelyveld, a Jewish activist who came down to Hattiesburg, Mississippi trying to register black voters, elected to leave the danger almost as soon as he arrived. He did not make the decision lightly or at some small act of intimidation, however: he was senselessly beaten with a tire iron in board daylight by white supremacists. A small group representing Hattiesburg's Jewish community urged him to get out of town, fearful their synagogue would get burned or their members injured or killed. Lelyveld responded: "Don't worry, I can't wait to leave."
These stories illustrate of a larger lesson: when any one of us fights for a social justice cause, we often embark on that journey with the best of intentions and without anticipating all of the dangers, difficulties and tragedies along the way. When that path threatens our safety or the safety of others, we begin to question how far we should go. Despite enduring great risk and suffering great injury, Lelyveld was able to return to the North and never face his aggressors again. Jews within the Hattiesburg community had to live among them with the memory of his beating urging them against anything other than compliance.
Even still, some very brave Southern Jews did stand up for civil rights in all sorts of ways. Many prominent Southern rabbis called for an end to bombings of African American churches and school segregation. And, despite the threat of boycotts against businesses owned by their husbands and families, many Jewish women worked against the segregationist system through organizations like the Women's Emergency Committee. The organization was formed to combat the governor's closing of Little Rock High schools. One Jewish woman, Marilyn Siegel, raised money for the WEC while dying from cancer.
Today, learning and working together, we can use these stories as an opportunity to ask ourselves larger questions about what we would do in similar circumstances. The issue of personal sacrifice for the sake of the common good is at the crux of a democracy. Each of us must inevitably weigh just how much we are willing to sacrifice for others every day in our own lives.
Here are some of the reflections and insights from some of these amazing students:
- "I think too many people my age assume someone else is going to take care of things and so they don't do anything but it doesn't mean we don't still care."
- "In my community, the biggest problem is young black males being incarcerated, but I don't know how to help because the problem seems so big."
- "A bunch of us walked out to protest budget cuts to our public schools, but not everyone because they were scared of being suspended. I think we let fear get in the way of standing up for things we care about."
- "I like the fact that my community is so diverse. I think it makes everyone stronger somehow. People tend to look out for one another and that makes me proud to live there."
What are your observations about diversity in your community? How do historical narratives shape your own understanding? I'd love to hear your thoughts, too.

Del Mar developer's accomplished career spans more than half a century
By Arthur Lightbourn
"Don't you ever smile?"
Veteran developer Jim Watkins credits those few words with changing his life.
He was a freshman in high school at the time, transplanted into a town he didn't like, and surrounded by students he couldn't befriend.
"I was always getting into fights," he recalls.
Nothing like the city he had moved from, Alhambra, California, in Los Angeles County, where he was a top dog among his buddies.
But, in this farm town of Visalia in the San Joaquin Valley with its dry, hot 100-degree-plus summers and tule foggy winters, he was the unhappy new kid on the block.
His entrepreneurial father had bought a gasoline bulk plant in Visalia.
So when a girl at school commented on his grumpy behavior, he didn't like that at all, but it got him thinking.
"I went back home and I thought, 'I've been a complete ass for six months. It's gotten me nowhere. I might as well accept this is my fate. I'm going to have to live in this dump.'
"I returned to school the next day and started smiling. That weekend," he remembers, "I got invited to a party. I wouldn't trade those next four years in high school for any other time in my entire life.
"Attitude, attitude, attitude," he concluded. "Everything is attitude."
Watkins is the founder and president of Winners Circle Resorts International, Inc., a company headquartered in Del Mar that specializes in the development, sales, marketing and management of vacation timeshares.
Over the past five decades, he built more than 1,000 homes, 50 apartment complexes, plus numerous hotels, including the L'Auberge Del Mar, commercial properties and luxury timeshare resorts.
He is a past president of the Del Mar Chamber of Commerce (1973, 1974), past president of the Del Mar Rotary Club (1980), recipient of the Del Mar Person of the Year Award (1990); and, as an avid supporter of community youth services, a 12-year YMCA board member, a 16-year board member of the Boys and Girls Club, and recipient of the Boys and Girls Club Living Legend Award in 2006.
We interviewed Watkins recently at the Carlsbad Inn Beach Resort and Hotel, one of Watkins' original properties where he was in the process of completing $4 million in building renovations and new landscaping to coincide with its Inn's 25th anniversary.
When he bought the Inn property 30 years ago, it consisted of several run-down cottages, a wedding chapel, and a vacant residence. It was zoned for apartments and commercial. And what Watkins was developing at the time were vacation timeshares.
Using his considerable powers of persuasion, he received approval from the city and coastal commission to transform the ocean property into a combination 62-room hotel flanked by 150 vacation timeshare apartments.
Looking around his renovated Carlsbad Inn Beach Resort and Hotel, Watkins said: "When I see places like this which I created 30 years ago, when I see all the people having a good time, that's what it's all about."

Ecclestone devised double points to help Ferrari
Luca di Montezemolo agreed behind closed doors that the controversial 'double points' innovation is necessary for formula one. That is the claim of F1 chief executive Bernie Ecclestone, despite Ferrari president Montezemolo having claimed on record that he is opposed to the unpopular idea.

However, Ecclestone has told F1 business journalist Christian Sylt this week that the 'double points' concept was designed specifically to help the sport's most famous team.

Head of human rights group says situation for free speech in West Bank worse than Gaza
By Daniella Peled / 17 January, 2014
A leading Palestinian human rights activist has claimed that freedom of speech is far greater under the Hamas regime in Gaza than in the Fatah-controlled West Bank.
Khalil Abu Shamala, director of the al-Dameer Centre For Human Rights – which works in both Gaza and the West Bank – said that although there were still occasional arrests of Fatah members, "nowadays we don't document many violations".
He noted that this was partly down to Hamas's weakness in the face of international pressures, particularly the breakdown of relations with the Egyptian regime.
In the past, Hamas has made large-scale arrests of journalists and called many others in for questioning, with opposition activists and bloggers facing harassment.
But although abuses still occurred in Gaza, Abu Shamala said that government forces in the Palestinian Authority–controlled West Bank took much harsher action against critics.
"Freedom of expression in Gaza is better than in the West Bank," he told Index on Censorship. "We have many cases where the PA arrest and attack people because they criticize them on Facebook, and many Facebookers in the West Bank use alternative names, not their real names. But here, they speak without any harassment by Hamas."
A rift between Hamas and Fatah, which culminated in the Islamist group seizing power in the Strip in 2007, has led to the creation of two near-separate entities in Gaza and the West Bank. Hamas refuses to recognise the Jewish state and is under an embargo by Israel and the international community.
"I don't know why, but in the West Bank, Palestinian Authority security systems have cooperation and coordination with Israel – and they don't want to give the opportunity for a third intifada, and they don't want to allow Hamas or those who are against the Palestinian Authority [to speak out] because they know many of the Palestinians in the West Bank hate the Palestinian Authority," Abu Shammala continued.
Hamas has previously issued proceedings against Abu Shamala for his outspoken criticism of the Islamist group.
"After they took over Gaza, they wanted from the beginning to impose their Islamic agenda on the society," he said, adding that his organisations and others had tried to combat these efforts.
The Hamas deputy foreign minister, Ghazi Hamed, denies that his government took any action to silence their critics.
"We are not oppressing people and people can speak loudly, can criticise the government, can criticise Hamas," said Hamed. "We never put anyone in jail who criticizes Hamas or write something against Hamas. We have different organisations, political parties, even writers, they have full freedom to write what they want."Tags: Fatah | free speech | Gaza | Hamas | palestinian authority | West Bank

- An ISBN is the 10 or 13 digit number, usually printed on the back of a book with a bar code, that serves as a unique identifier for the book.
- Searching by ISBN is the best way to search because it will get you the exact title and edition that you need.
- Many professors include the ISBN on their syllabi or in their course management system.
If you don't have the ISBN, try a title or author search.
Title search
- Enter all words in the title you are looking for. The search engine will try to find books that have all the words you entered in the title. Leave out words such as "a," "an," or "the."
- When including edition, use numeric values. For example, "1st edition" instead of "first edition."
Author search
- Enter all or part of the author name you are looking for.
- You do not need to enter a first name, but if there are a lot of books by authors with the same last name, it may help to narrow the results.
- You can enter the name in any order such as "John Smith" or "Smith John." Avoid using a comma since it has a special meaning in the search.
Keyword search
- You can search by keyword but this approach is not recommended as it will likely return a large set of results.
- If you want to search by keyword, try a combination of author and keyword. For example, "Warren Accounting" where "Warren" is the author and "Accounting" is the keyword.
To refine your results, use the filtering/sorting options
- Filter options include product type and discipline area. Sort options include alphabetical sort (ascending or descending) and copyright year (ascending or descending).

The transfer application deadline is March 1, 2015 but prospective candidates will need to complete both the Georgetown Transfer Application and the Georgetown Transfer Application Supplement, as well as coordinate the submission of required supporting documents.
Georgetown is committed to a holistic admission process, and transfer files are reviewed by Admission Committees composed of faculty, deans, current students who were transfers themselves, and admission officers. Typically, a cumulative B+ average or higher is recommended for transfer admission consideration.
Transfer applicants must provide official college/university transcripts from all previous institutions, as well as a completed Dean's Report, Professor's Report and Secondary School Report that includes the final high school transcript. Transfer applicants are required to provide either an SAT or ACT exam as part of the application process, unless the candidate has been out of high school for five or more years prior to the date of intended matriculation at Georgetown.
College/university transcripts need to be mailed to the Office of Undergraduate Admissions. It is anticipated that we will go live on October 15, 2014 with an electronic system by which transfer applicants can request the submission of the Dean's Report, Professor's Report and Secondary School Report. Please revisit this site after October 15 to initiate the process by which these forms can be electronically requested.
Transfer students are admitted only for the fall semester. However, those students admitted for the fall may begin with the summer session if desired.
Georgetown Transfer Application Submission
There are four steps to applying as a transfer candidate.
We encourage you to submit your Georgetown Transfer Application as soon as possible. Submission of the form will require approximately twenty minutes and provide you with your Georgetown Identification Number necessary to complete the other steps. The Application also initiates the alumni interview process. Alumni interviews are optional for transfer applicants.
Step One - Submit Georgetown Transfer Application. This form will create your application file and assist in tracking any documents submitted in support of your application.
Step Two - Create an Applicant Profile. Upon creation of your Profile, you will be provided with a unique password, allowing you to save your Transfer Application Supplement for editing and revising prior to final submission by the March 1, 2015 deadline.
Step Three - Submit the Request Form for your Secondary School Report, Dean's Report and Professor's Report (available after October 15, 2014). Please revisit this site after October 15, 2014 with the e-mail addresses of your secondary school counselor (Secondary School Report), college/university dean (Dean's Report) and college/university professor (Professor's Report). College and University transcripts will need to be mailed to the Office of Undergraduate Admissions.
Step Four - Submit Georgetown Transfer Application Supplement. Please note that you must use the same e-mail address and password that you created for the Applicant Profile; this will allow you to save your work on the Supplement and submit it when you are ready. Deadline: March 1, 2015.
The Transfer Application Menu, which you will see is first presented for Steps Two, Three and Four, should assist you in completing you application.
We look forward to reviewing you application.

I'm very happy to have stayed at Rahul's Guest House. They were friendly, courteous and helpful. You get a great view from the ghats without being In the ghats, they were very transparent with their pricing for tours, laundry, food, etc. - unlike other places in India. They were performing some renovations, but it didnt bother me at all. Very good experience and I would recommend it. The only recommendation is to ask who you can contact in case you need something after 10 PM.

The hostel is under "continuous building out" so the facilities are not very nice at the moment. Really good rooms though, happy with that. We understood that this hostel is prob. cleaner than most in varanasi, but the location is SO FAR from town and the neighbourhood is NOT nice during evening when it's dark. It's about 20 min walk to assi ghat which is ok, but 3 km to rest of the town. The staff is polite, but not more. Not very helpful. Unfortunately, I wouldnt stay here again.

Great hotel in a quiet alley. The view of the Ganges is amazing, and the staff--especially Ricky--is super helpful. We had some issues with our onward train tickets and the staff called around to help us sort it, and accommodated us for an extra night with little notice. They then woke up at 5AM to check the status of our train for us and really treated us well. Great place. Thanks guys!

Samsung Shows Off Glasses Free 55-inch 3D TV
This week Samsung showed off a 55-inch 3D LCD TV, viewable without the need for glasses, at FPD China 2011. According to TechOn! the optimal viewing distance is 2.5-6 meters and users will have the option to switch between 2D and 3D, much like Nintendo's 3Ds, though it's not clear if the user will be able to vary the intensity of the 3D.
Specs are relatively norm for the 55-inch display, boasting a 1920×1080 resolution, 500 cd/m2 brightness and a 4000:1 contrast ratio. The prototype uses a a direct-lit CCFL, however Samsung says they'll likely replace that with LEDs when it comes to market in 3 year's time.

West Cumbrian traders hold on to hope in Mary Portas high street bid
Last updated at 19:37, Thursday, 31 May 2012
Maryport has suffered a blow in its bid to gain funding to breathe life into its high street.
The town has been unsuccessful in its request for a slice of the £1.2 million Mary Portas fund to boost town centres.
But traders have been given hope because the Government has announced that it will support a further round of 15 pilot schemes.
Maryport will be automatically entered into the second round of bids. The winners will be announced in July.
Kevin Kerrigan, Allerdale council planning and economic growth manager, said: "We are hugely disappointed that Maryport was not selected to be one of the Mary Portas pilot projects.
"With over 370 entries from towns across the country, there was tough competition.
"We have an opportunity to review the bid and we will consider whether there are any areas where we can add to the proposal."
Retail expert Mary Portas was appointed by Prime Minister David Cameron to lead an independent review into the future of Britain's high streets.
Maryport's bid was put together by traders and Allerdale council because of concern over the number of shop closures in the town.
The first 12 Portas pilots selected were: Bedford, Croydon in Greater London, Dartford in Kent, Bedminster in Bristol, Liskeard in Cornwall, Margate in Kent, Market Rasen in Lincolnshire, Nelson in Lancashire, Newbiggin-by-the-Sea in Northumberland, Stockport in Greater Manchester, Stockton-on-Tees in Teesside and Wolverhampton.
Gill Elliot, owner of the 46 Senhouse Street shop, said: "Traders were disappointed but are hopeful that Maryport might succeed in the second round.
"We need to do a more business-like presentation than the first one.
"I don't think we gave enough details about what we wanted.
"I would like to see the traders come together and have a brainstorm."
Jill Skinner, owner of The Lily Basket, said: "It was a bit of a blow to miss out but I still have hope of it coming here."
Mary Dixon, manageress of John Dixon & Son, said: "Let's hope we still get it. It may give a boost to Maryport and its shops."
Graham Burrow, owner of Design D'Interieur, said: "It would be nice to see some more regeneration in the area."

Constitution does not provide for continuing presidential term
The term continuation in office is not included in the 350 articles of the Constitution of Venezuela
The Supreme Tribunal of Justice endorsed continuation of government positions rather than continuation in office of individuals (File photo)

Tuesday January 08, 2013 02:20 PM
"President (Hugo Chávez) has been already elected by people's majority. He even has been sworn in and his term in office continues." In this way, Prosecutor General Cilia Flores endorsed her thesis that the re-elected Venezuelan president may continue to hold office even if, because of his serious health condition, he fails to attend his inauguration ceremony scheduled for January 10 under the Venezuelan Constitution.
Similarly, Executive Vice-President Nicolás Maduro used the term continuation in office to defend the idea that Chávez may continue holding office even though he has not taken office for his new presidential term.
Nonetheless, the Constitution of Venezuela, enacted in 1999, does not refer to continuation in office in any of its 350 articles. Moreover, it does not provide that an official may continue holding office upon the expiration of his/her term.
However, sources in the Constitutional Court of TSJ said the government's thesis may be endorsed by such court in the rulings it is to issue in response to two actions requesting construction of Article 231 of the Constitution.
Administrative continuation has been provided for in different legal instruments such as the Law on the Supreme Tribunal of Justice. However, the TSJ itself has ruled that the term continuation in office applies to government positions rather than individuals.

In my entry criteria, I typically focus on companies that have a sustainable dividend payment. A sustainable dividend payment is one where the ratio of dividends to earnings per share in a given year does not exceed 60%. In addition, I also focus on the price/earnings ratio, which is a ratio of the stock price over the annual earnings per share.
Astute readers would thus notice that I earnings per share is a key component of my analysis, as it is part of the P/E and dividend payout ratio calculations. For my analysis of earnings per share, I tend to focus on income from continuing operations. These generate earnings from sources, which have a high chance of recurring for many years. Many companies however generate one time gains or losses which directly affect earnings per share. As a result, I tend to "normalize" this key indicator, in order to have an objective analysis.
Two such companies, which appear to have higher earnings per share, due to one-time items include AT&T (T) and Coca-Cola (KO).
In a previous article, I have expressed my concerns over the sustainability of AT&T's and other telecom companies' dividend payments. On the surface however, it looked that AT&T (T) earned $3.35/share in 2010. This represents the highest EPS amount ever. In addition, the P/E ratio seems to be 8.50, while the dividend payout ratio is 51.30%. When you drill further into the earnings figures and switch to a quarterly view however, one would notice that the company earned $1.95 in the third quarter of 2010. This was much higher than the $0.54/share earned in the third quarter of 2009, and much higher than the $0.68/share earned in the second quarter of 2010. I researched the issue, and found this press release from the company's website:
"Third-quarter 2010 net income attributable to AT&T totaled $12.3 billion, or $2.08 per diluted share, including $1.53 in one-time gains from a previously disclosed tax settlement and the sale of Sterling Commerce. "
This shows that the company earned $1.53/share from a one-time gain. In addition, $0.13/share came from discontinued operations. This leads to a normalized EPS of $0.42 for the quarter, which decreases earnings per share for 2010 to $1.69/share. As a result, the dividend payout ratio looks closer to 100%, whereas the P/E ratio looks close to 16.70. Even if AT&T manages to earn $2.40/share in 2011, its dividend coverage is still unsustainable at 72%. Check my analysis of the stock.
For Coca-Cola (KO) a large portion of the EPS for 2010 investors are seeing is coming from a gain related to the purchase of CCE North American Operations. Most investors see annual EPS of 5.06/share in 2010, which makes the P/E 13 and the DPR to be 37.20%. Zooming in on the EPS for the fourth quarter of 2010, one could see that the firm had EPS of 2.46/share, which was higher than the Q4 2009 earnings of $0.66/share and the Q3 2010 earnings of $0.88/share.
From the company's press release:
"Fourth quarter reported EPS was $2.46, with comparable EPS at $0.72, up 9%, including a $0.02 dilutive impact to comparable EPS as a result of the Coca-Cola Enterprises transaction. Full-year reported EPS was $5.06, with comparable EPS at $3.49, up 14%. "
Here's more from the press release:
"As required by accounting standards, the Company revalued its 33% ownership of CCE to fair value at the closing date of the transaction to acquire CCE's North American operations, resulting in a $5.0 billion one-time non-cash gain in the fourth quarter of 2010."
So to summarize, I used EPS of $3.83 in my analysis of Coca-Cola, rather than $5,06 since the extra $1.23 dollars/share came from basically writing up the company's previous initial partial investment in the bottling plans when it acquired them in full. These are one time earnings events, so they should not be taken into consideration. This increased the P/E ratio to 17.30 and the dividend payout ratio to 49.10%.
As a result, I would stay away from AT&T (T), despite its mouth watering yield of 6%. I am wary of high-yielding stocks, particularly from the telecom sectors. I would also prefer buying PepsiCo (PEP) stock over Coca-Cola (KO), given the fact that PepsiCo is cheaper than Coke.

Good post, ive seen quite a few analysis using overoptimistic PE for these companies.ReplyDelete
You make a good point. Published earnings cannot be trusted; that is why I like to use Net Cash Flow. AT&T has plenty of cash flow to pay it's dividend unless it's revenues were to fall significantly. I have written an article on the importance of Net Cash Flow for anyone interested at:ReplyDelete

Twist-Hyde Park,N.Y.
- j
- JefffromOhio Feb 26, 2007 02:36 PM
Wow, the posters who recommended this place were spot on. Great Food, Great Service, and a number of great value and interesting wines in the $20-$30 a bottle price point. Will
return the next time we are in NY.
Glad you liked it!! Did you try any of their desserts? I think their bread pudding is pretty darn good, and I don't even like bread pudding that much!!
Very decent wine list as well. When we went a couple of weeks ago, the owner/wife said she was working on a new list, but let us order from that list. We were very happey with our choice!
The only two complaints I have about this place are: 1)wish they could offer more entree choices & 2) the puff pastry thingy is always too salty. Other than that, I'm pretty content.
re: markabauman
It's in the strip mall in front of the Amish Market supermarket (used to be Grand Union). A few miles south of where you were.
we stopped there for dinner last night - i had the duck dish from their website (letstwist.com) and a special lobster/crab appetizer, both of which were real good. my wife had the strip steak and everything as her part of the main meal was real good as well.
the only things: she wasn't impressed with the salad she got for the price, and wished there were more choices on the main menu (she can't eat fish products and doesn't eat lamb which left 1 chicken, 1 duck and 3 red meats). so to go back, she'll have to be in a mood for one of those.
we couldn't have dessert - kids with us...
(edit: we actually all liked the twists. unfortunately, my wife and i got very little of them because our kids were all over them and it kept them reasonably quiet).
however, it's better to have a small menu that's good and consistent than a large one which is neither.
Thanks! Will check it out- will be at CIA next week for dining and there two weeks at the end of the month for courses, but it will still be possible to go check out the restaurant for the future.
Tried Twist the other night. A slightly less pretentious cousin to Beso in the Gramercy Tavern tradition: finite menu of new American crowd pleasers done very well (had the fliet mig -- cooked perfectly to order in the surprisingly light tangy red wine sauce). I agree with both Bob and Jeff -- skip the spendy salad course, order one of the many superb value wines and definitely save room for one (or t-t-two) of the will-corrupting house desserts. Casual, chowish vibe a plus... This is exactly the kind of place you'd hope the CIA kids would be putting up in the neighborhood.

Great looking gift box. I was worried that the perfume would be a small size, but its not - pretty decent sized bottle, with a convenient travel sized bottle. Great gift and great price. Arrived within 3-4 days, no damage. Will definitely be buying gifts from overstock routinely.
Vera Wang is one of the perfumes I personally use so I bought the item as a Christmas gift and had it shipped to another state. The fragrance set arrived timely and it was in perfect condition. However, I made the assumption that the perfume set would have been wrapped prior to being placed in the shipping box because I selected the radio button next to the statement, "the item is a gift". My mother-in-law was a bit surprised when she opened the shipping box early (to put the gift under her tree) and discovered the fragrance set unwrapped. She didn't have any complaints though - she loves the Vera Wang product. In the end it all worked out, although I would have paid a reasonable amount to have the package gift wrapped.
This item is not returnable unless the problem you experience is the result of our error.

YC the Cynic - Runaway
Artist: YC the Cynic
Producer: Steel Tipped Dove
Album: & A Whole Bunch of Crazy Motherf*ckers Vol. 1.
Avg Rating: 3.0 ( 3 votes )
On mixtape lead single God Complex, featured earlier this month, YC the Cynic invited listeners to bow down and supplicate themselves before the master of the universe… none other than YC the Cynic. Runaway, the latest song release off producer Steel Tipped Dove's forthcoming street album, finds the West Coast repper on some comparatively humble ish. Emphasis on the "comparatively." Backed by the aforementioned beatsmith's industrial-tinged percussion and ominous guitar riffs, the emcee tempts a shorty with talk of his superhuman sexual prowess, asking, "Have you ever had sex with a living legend?" On the back, NYC buzzmaker Hipnotic grabs the mic to do a little gridiron-themed game-spitting: "I want to touch down in your end zone." Steel Tipped Dove's & A Whole Bunch of Crazy Motherf*ckers Vol. 1 LP is available now for purchase via Bandcamp. Keep it locked for further details on YC's GNK tape, which has yet to receive a solid drop date.

Many people have stated that Oakland native Mark Curry is possibly comedy's best kept secret and undoubtedly one of the funniest comedians in the world. Mark Curry's first role was in the film Talkin' Dirty After Dark, alongside Martin Lawrence in 1991. In 1992, Curry got his big break as the star of hit television series Hangin' with Mr. Cooper, where he played the lead role of Mark Cooper, an NBA player-turned-substitute teacher/gym coach. The show spanned five seasons on ABC.
Curry guest starred in two episodes of The Jamie Foxx Show as an eccentric driving instructor. In addition, he also had guest starring roles on television series Living Single in 1994 and Martin in 1997, and minor roles in the films Switchback and Armageddon in 1998.
In 2000, Curry also had a recurring role on The Drew Carey Show as Drew's boss at Winfred-Louder. He appeared in six episodes. In an April Fools' episode of The Drew Carey Show, Drew refers to Mr. Soulard as Mr. Cooper, the joke being that Curry played both roles.
Curry was the host of Comedy Central's Don't Forget Your Toothbrush in 2000 and had minor roles in For Your Love, which starred Hangin' with Mr. Cooper co-star, Holly Robinson Peete. In 2001, Mark had a minor role in the Disney Channel Original Movie Motocrossed. Later in the year, Curry played one of the leads in another Disney Channel Original Movie, The Poof Point.
In 2012, Curry joined Sommore, Earthquake, Bruce Bruce and Tony Rock on the "Royal Comedy Tour." Many spectators have viewed Curry's stand-up comedy performance as the highlight of the show leaving the audience in hysterical laughter.
Later in 2012, Curry joined Nick At Nite's first-ever original live-action family comedy series, See Dad Run as Scott Baio's friend Marcus. The series is currently in production on the former Happy Days stage in Los Angeles. On December 19, 2012, Nick at Nite renewed the series for a second season of 20 episodes.

Record: 10 – 9 – 3
Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
This could be Telegin's year
Jets speedster fully recovered from injuries, ready to fly
PENTICTON, B.C. -- Skating away from his recent past will be Ivan Telegin's biggest test when it comes to determining if he's part of the Winnipeg Jets' future.
The good news is that the 21-year-old speedster was back on the ice in a competitive setting Friday at the South Okanagan Events Centre, part of the Jets' roster for their Vancouver Canucks Young Stars Classic game against the San Jose Sharks.
Telegin, a fourth-round pick of 2010 by the Atlanta Thrashers, has been missing in action since midway through the 2012-13 AHL season, when he suffered a concussion in his 34th game with the St. John's IceCaps.
Prior to that, a mysterious hand injury had set him back heading into his first pro year. Telegin has refused to talk about it and nothing much had changed Friday.
"After my season in Barrie, that was a great season for me (35 goals), I went back to my home in Russia and I hurt my hand," Telegin said Friday. "That was some bad stuff. It took me three months (to recover).
"It's a long story."
He was asked if there was a short version of it.
"No," was the answer. "What happened, I don't care right now. It feels good now. Everything's normal now."
Starting with the IceCaps, there was some optimism within the Jets' organization that a 6-3 forward with elite speed could be part of the team's future.
But the path to the NHL is rarely straight.
Telegin initially found the AHL difficult.
"It was a different league, pro guys, older guys," he said. "A lot was different. Longer schedule. It was tough for me. But my coach helped me a lot. He showed me video, (sat me out) one game to watch. He was showing me how I needed to play, offensive zone, defensive zone.
"I felt better and better every game. After 30 games, I felt like Superman. Better every time. And then that concussion."
IceCaps coach Keith McCambridge said the injury -- Telegin was driven into the boards from behind -- was a true setback because the rookie was beginning to figure things outs.
"He's always had this speed, but you could see he was starting to learn the pro game, getting some more structure to use and when to use his speed to his advantage," McCambridge said. "I remember that hit like it was yesterday and that was it. He tried it but just wasn't there. Ever since then, you can see the frustration, that he hasn't been able to go on the ice."
Telegin tried but couldn't practise. His treatment options led him to medical experts in Vancouver, which helped temporarily, but when he returned to St. John's, the dizziness and headaches returned.
"I would spend a lot of time thinking about when I'd be ready, when I'd start to play again," he said. "I felt bad. I couldn't sleep overnight, maybe two, three hours most. I went to Winnipeg for a couple of weeks to see the doctors. Then we had some meetings, and I think I needed to go back to Russia, be home, be around my parents, be comfortable."
So back he went to Novokuznetsk in early April until the Jets prospects camp in July. He returned to Winnipeg but still didn't feel quite right and never did join the week-long camp.
Just in the last few days, Telegin was added to the roster for the Young Stars tournament. He feels he's turned the corner.
I'm fine. I'm sleeping," he said. "I can't express it. I'm so happy to play again. I'm so excited, nervous, too. I haven't played in eight months maybe. Lots of emotions."
McCambridge, handling the Jets rookies here, is among those that think the Jets still have a major prospect on their hands in Telegin.
"He's definitely still a prospect for this organization," he said. "The skills he possesses, with his size and speed, he's a guy we were excited to have at the beginning of last year for a whole season.
"We don't expect him to be 100 per cent here. It will take some time for sure but pretty much building back from scratch and taking that time off, only having been able to play that half a season in the AHL, we'll start here at square 1 and see how he does at Winnipeg's camp and then adjust from there."
