So far so good
By Garry M. from Louisville, KY on Oct 20, 2011
Casual Do-It-Yourselfer
Worked well as a replacement light kit for an old Aire Royale ceiling fan.
did,however, have to remove wiring connectors and use wire nuts instead.
if the bulb receptacles hold up (one is not centered well) it will have been a worthwhile purchase.

This year has been a particularly hard year. We had to sell our house and it was a short sale. We had renters in there but they were constantly late and flooded my upstairs bathroom which required tearing out of flooring and subflooring. On top of that, my husband was working crazy hours. We are talking 6 in the morning to almost 10 at night. Why? Well, he had a boss that thought that all this stuff needed to be done and cater to people that really weren't in charge. It put a toll on my sanity and our marriage. Which in turn meant I never worked out and I picked up some really bad habits to cope.
A couple of those bad habits: soda and fattening food. All that equals a weight gain. I am actually at my heaviest now than I was just before my husband deployed in 2007. After the birth of my first, I ate like I was still pregnant and I gained quite a bit. I was 170 when he left. When he came back I was around 160 and upon getting pregnant, I lost 30 pounds within the first 3 months of my pregnancy. I gained it all back but it was easier to lose the second time around.
After the birth of my third, my weight fluctuated. It hovered around 155 to 165. Then I got pregnant with my fourth. The weight gain during that pregnancy was normal. Nothing to dramatic. I didn't lose a lot in the beginning like my previous pregnancies but I did gain 25-30 pounds. My weight now is what I weighed when I gave birth to my daughter in 2013.
I lost about 20 pounds after she was here but by Christmas 2013, that all changed. The weight gain started happening. This is also the time that my husband's schedule was erratic, the issues with the house started happening, and I became an emotional/comfort eater.
So what is my current weight? 182. That is embarrassing. My mother is overweight to the point it has cause her to have surgeries on her knees and shoulders because of the weight she carries. My grandmother is overweight too. Albeit she isn't near what my mom is and does try to eat better and get what exercise she can. I'll also give her a break to as she is in her 70's. My aunt isn't overweight. She actually walks 6-10 miles a day. She is my inspiration in so many ways.
I've always had body issues. Most of that stems from how my mother viewed her body and how my dad reacted. Top that being a dancer and I was always trying to make my tummy flatter. I have always had what they call the mom pooch. That was until I went to bootcamp. All that walking, running, exercising....It did me good, but like so many people, once out of bootcamp, I just strived to pass the PT tests.
So here I stand at 182 and I kick myself in the butt on why I thought I was fat and ugly at 160, 155, 145, 130. I feel awful now. I have started my 30's in the worst shape of my life and if I don't do anything about it, I'm on the road to health problems. I don't want that.
I want health. I want fitness. I want energy. I want life. I want to be happy. I want to feel beautiful again.
I am currently aware that many of my problems in the view of my body are unhealthy and I need to change that mind set. I'm also aware that because I haven't been eating well or exercising, I'm depressed about it. Not depressed in the sense that I need medication but depressed that I let myself get this way.
I have weaknesses. I am strong in so many areas but weak in just as many. For this I must humble myself in order to be successful. I don't feel I have unrealistic goals but I do feel I have unrealistic expectations of how hard it is going to be to get there.
Here are my fitness goals:
- Goal weight of 145
- No more soda
- Limited amount of sweets
- Exercise 3-5 times a week
- Run my first 5k before I turn 31
All of it is going to be hard. I may not get to 145. My body may have changed so much from having kids and still breastfeeding that 145 is not attainable to me. But I'm sure going to try.
Soda - It really is a drug. I have an addiction. I will get stomach aches and nausea if I go a few days with out it. It is definitely like I am on a bend. I have been getting better at drinking my tea though. Baby steps.
Sweets - Who doesn't love sweets. Problem is I love a lot of sweets made with HFCS (high fructose corn syrup). I'm not nearly addicted to this as soda and there was a period of about a year that we almost completely cut it out of our diet. So this won't be a problem as long as I find healthier alternatives,
Exercise - This is going to be hard. I have a lot on my plate. Homeschooling, a business, house cleaning, young children....At the end of the day I'm exhausted but I'd rather be exhausted from getting fit than exhausted from not being able to catch my breath.
Running - I loathe it. Probably because it hurts, I don't have great form, and need really good shoes. There was a point that I did it easily but now I just feel like a failure. I will do it though. Why? Because I need to.
And here's a bonus....I want to look in the mirror and say "Dang! I look good" and then that confidence radiates into the bedroom with my husband. That sweet guy of mine. I know no matter what that I will be beautiful to him. 182 pounds or 145 pounds he will still think I'm beautiful. The issue is I want to feel that way!
I haven't decided if I want to post a before picture. To be quite honest, I'm very embarrassed. I may. If I don't, I may provide my measurements at the very least. I still have some soul searching to do on this subject. I also am waiting for a few items to come in. So while the meal plan overhaul and exercise plan may not go into full fruition until December 1st, I can still work on my sweets and no soda.
So here I go. I've poured all my time and energy into other people, that in order to continue giving them 100%, I have to pour some into myself. I'll be honest, I'm scared and excited.

"Dear Mrs. _____________:
Thank you for contacting me recently regarding the media
and news about deployment of troops. It is a pleasure to hear from
As you may know, more than 500 journalists are embedded
among U.S. troops. This has revolutionized media coverage of
war. It has given us real insight and appreciation for those brave
men and women that are risking their lives so that we can live in a
free world. However, I share your concerns and agree with you
that family members should receive deployment information before
the media. In this new era of increasing technology we need to
achieve a balance between disseminating information and privacy.
Again, thank you for contacting me. Please continue to
keep me informed of the issues that are of importance to you.

Winter Shipping
Winter is upon us again. We are no longer shipping any tender trees in Canada. Limited shipping is available on Junipers.
See you in the Spring!
Bonsai Trees for Sale to Canada
We have indoor and outdoor bonsai trees that can be shipped to Canada. Zen Garden Bonsai represents several growers that we've hunted down on your behalf. Our inventory is growing every day and we are planning even more additions.
Buying a bonsai in Canada is very different from the US. For one thing, shipping costs are higher and are not included in the price of the tree. You'll see the cost for shipping in the check out. If you buy more than one tree, you might be entitled to a shipping cost reduction and we promise to follow up with you if your costs are lower than the charge.
Regardless of the occasion, as a living work of art a bonsai is a unique gift idea. Bonsai trees are ideal for wedding gifts , anniversary gifts and a birthday gift. A bonsai is a natural house warming present and a splendid retirement gift. As a symbol of enduring life a bonsai is a sensitive and thoughtful bereavement gift.
Check our Blog articles for information on how to look after your bonsai trees.
And one brief note to our American customers - Sorry - If you see a Canadian Flag on a tree, we cannot ship to the US. We'd love to, but the paperwork is really ugly.

Roland Burris
From OpenCongress Wiki
|This is a profile of a former U.S. senator. (See all the Illinois portal for all incumbents, candidates and blogs.)
Things you can do:
Roland Burris was a Democrat representing Illinois in the U.S. Senate from 2009 to 2010. Burris was appointed by Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich to fill the Senate seat vacated by then President-Elect Barack Obama. At the time of Burris' appointment, Gov. Blagojevich was under-investigation for allegedly attempting to sell Obama's Senate seat.
Positions, record and controversies
When the Senate convened on January 7, 2009, Roland Burris had not been approved by the Democratic leadership and his paperwork was rejected by the Secretary of the Senate prior to the opening of the 111th Congress. [1]
On January 12, 2009, following a week of negotiations, Senate Democrats said Burris would be seated in the United States Senate. Burris, while awaiting a determination of his fate, testified before the Illinois state legislature while that body was deliberating impeachment of Blagojevich. In addition, the Illinois Supreme Court ruled Burris' appointment met the requirements of state law, even though the Secretary of State had not signed Burris' certification.[2]
Burris was born and raised in the small community of Centralia in southern Illinois. Burris was a 1955 graduate of Centralia High School (CHS). He attended Southern Illinois University Carbondale, receiving a Bachelor of Arts degree in political science. He was an exchange student on scholarship to study International Law at the University of Hamburg in Germany. He earned his Juris Doctor degree from Howard University School of Law in 1963.
Political career
From 1979 to 1991, Burris was elected to the office of comptroller of Illinois. He was the first African American to be elected to a statewide office in the state of Illinois. Burris was an unsuccessful candidate for the Democratic nomination for U.S. Senate in 1984, losing to Paul Simon who went on to defeat incumbent Senator Charles Percy.
From 1991 to 1995, Burris was Attorney General for the State of Illinois, where he supervised over 500 lawyers. There, he was the second African American elected to a state office of Attorney General in the United States. In 1994, he was an unsuccessful candidate for the Democratic nomination for governor of Illinois.
In 1995, he ran for mayor of Chicago, losing to incumbent Richard M. Daley. In 1998 and 2002, he again unsuccessfully sought the Democratic nomination for Governor of Illinois, running in 2002 against, among others, Rod Blagojevich. During his 2002 run for governor he was supported by, among others, President-elect Barack Obama.[3]
On December 30, 2008, Gov. Blagojevich announced Burris was his choice to fill the Senate seat left vacant by then President-elect Barack Obama. Burris came to the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2009, to be sworn into office, but he was turned away from the Senate chambers. On January 15, 2009, after Senate leaders had agreed to seat him and after the Illinois State Supreme Court ruled in his favor, Burris was sworn in by Vice President Dick Cheney.
The seat comes open in 2010, so if Burris wishes to retain it, he must compete in a Democratic primary in February, 2010, and then if successful, a general election the following November.
Investigation into Blagojevich appointment
After being appointed to the Senate, but before being sworn into office, Burris was asked to testify before the Illinois House panel then engaged in impeachment proceedings against Governor Rod Blagojevich. Burris filed an affidavit dated January 5, 2009 stating that he had not had any contact with Blagojevich or anyone involved in the Blagojevich campaign concerning the Senate seat. On January 8, 2009, Burris testified in person before the impeachment committee. Asked if he had spoken with anyone "closely related to the governor, including family members or lobbyists connected with him," Burris, after consulting his lawyer, named only former Blagojevich chief of staff Lon Monk.[4]
Over a month later, on February 14, 2009, the Chicago Sun-Times reported that Burris had sent an additional affidavit to the head of the Illinois House impeachment committee dated Feburary 5 revealing that Robert Blagojevich, Rod Blagojevich's brother, had spoken with Burris three times in October and November 2008 about raising funds for the then-Governor. Initially, Burris stated that he refused to contribute to the campaign, saying that "it would be inappropriate and pose a major conflict because I was interested in the Senate vacancy."[5] However, a few days later Burris offered yet another version of events, telling reporters that he had in fact contacted several people about holding a fund-raiser, but that he had abandoned the idea because of lack of interest. According to this version, it was not until their final conversation that Burris told Robert Blagojevich that his interest in the Senate seat prevented him from raising money for the then-Governor.[6]
In response to these revelations, the Senate Ethics Committee has opened a preliminary investigation into Burris' conduct. Additionally, Illinois State's Attorney John Schmidt has begun to look into possible inconsistencies in Burris' statements relating to his Senate appointment.[7]
Currently Burris is under investigation by The Senate Ethics Committee and the Illinois Sangamon County State Attorney for continually changing his testimony regarding his appointment to the vacant Illinois Senate seat left by President Barack Obama. He has given more than three different explanations for his appointment to the seat, with one explanation include how he raised money for Gov. Rod Blagojevich. While Burris did not claim he spent money on legal fees, he has stated he has accumulated more than $500,000 in legal fees surrounding his appointment to the Illinois Senate seat.[8]

How many times does a mother feel a failure? Am I the only one?
I think I'm a good mother, but I have more moments than I ever wish to admit where a meltdown of all that is holding me together occurs. I don't know why. From playing a more-or-less single mom for 1 ½ months with the same time to go? The pressure? The insurmountable number of aIl I have to do in order to balance family and self? Or just what's on the family list? Or am I selfish for wanting, for needing a "self" list?
Mommy Meltdowns, I know are not uncommon. For most of us, hopefully all, there's nothing inherently 'bad' about them other than that they happen. Other than that they shine a light on our inability to be perfect for all little ones, for all times.
After my meltdowns occur, meltdowns of internal patience, understanding and wisdom of how to raise a little me, I find myself guilted. Not guilted maybe, but full of guilt. I bang my head against the unforeseen wall of motherhood wishing I could be perfect.
I. Want. To. Be. Perfect.
But alas, I am not a perfect human, how could I possibly be a perfect mother. Are you?

(this is exactly how I got to the point I am at now, and an exact email I sent to a friend of mine who is probably way to busy to figure this out for me. Help! Need to get my online business up and running!)
Hey bud. Question.. I cant find this resolved on any forum.. Not sure why its happening.. I've been following the guide (http://net.tutsplus.com/videos/screencasts/easy-e-commerce-with-magento/) and got down to the
"Downloading/Installing Magento"
section. Went through License, Localization, and got to Configuration. I've followed the guide and pressed continue, but it just reloads the page and nothing else happens. I have all the red asterisk items filled in (as default values). I found a few forums where people have the same problem, and no one has a resolution.
Do I need to change any of these values in the configure area? Or do you know what else might be causing the problem? What should I do next?
"Data Connection"
"Host*" localhost
"Database Name*" Magento
"User Name*" Root
"User Password" (blank)

"Session storage options"
"Save session data in" File system
There's a bunch of people with this, or a similar problem (at http://www.magentocommerce.com/boards/viewthread/32505/P0/). I had to use the older version of xampplite (1.7.0 instead of the newer 1.7.1 to avoid an error [with object.php line 488]). I've tried Magento versions 22.214.171.124 and 18.104.22.168 same problem with configuration though.
I'm completely clueless about this stuff. A total noob to internet store stuff
I'll get the exact same thing, did you figure it out?
No, sorry to say I still haven't figured it out. And no other responses on here either as you see.. That's a bit of a frustration, that we can't find an accurate, easy to follow guide that includes all the info a noob needs to complete the install. Maybe compatibility issue? I'm running 64 bit system.. Think that could have anything to do with it? Anyone else have any opinion about the issue? It's been a week..
Hi All. Same issue for me. Any clue?
Just a tip. It happened to me after a first not successful installation.
It's like Magento set some configurations despite that you don't finish the installation process. This may be interfering with the process, the 2nd time you want to proceed.
Yes i have same problem. No clue.
Using wamp 2.oh
php 5.2.9-2

You need to create a database first.

A$AP Rocky - Houston Old Head
Artist: A$AP Rocky
Producer: DJ Burn One
Album: LiveLoveA$AP
Avg Rating: 3.4 ( 17 votes )
Everything has been purple for the past couple of weeks thanks to the left field success of rapper ASAP Rocky. Already cosigned by today's biggest names like Cam'ron and Drake, Rocky's name caught our attention after the announcement of a reported $3 million deal with RCA. Similar to Kreayshawn's out of no where 7 figure signing, a lot of us didn't know enough about ASAP to know if he was worth the deal. However, after the release of his mixtape Live Love A$AP, it's obvious ASAP has more talent in his grill than Kreay's life. One of the standout tracks from the project is the DJ Burn One produced Houston Old Head. While I'm starting to question if Rocky really is a Harlem rapper, the way he smoothly raps over the southern style instrumental seems to be effortless. Stating he's "always in Houston with a NY state of mind," ASAP raps about why we should listen to the old heads and avoid hos, money and hos after money. While many are waiting for more material, it's safe to say tracks like these prove ASAP is no fluke.

My name is Steve Radl, and I am married to Danielle Radl, my college sweetheart. We have a large family, ranging from 23 years old to 10 years old, all the kids surf, and we decided that we wanted a beautiful vacation spot for our family to enjoy. We traveled around Costa Rica until we came to Nosara and after one night we knew this was it. We purchased our property and built our oasis.
The Owner purchased this house in 1999

After growing up in the South Bay and Hawaii, My wife and myself wanted something that reminded us of our growing up years:) and Nosara seemed like the perfect paradise. It had all the tropical beauty of Hawaii and the infrastructure of the South Bay.
What makes this house unique
One of our favorite things is the down time. The kids all have busy lives between a full academic schedule as well as the club sports that they play. The family gets to relax, reconnect, and just enjoy life.

Last night at Madison Square Garden, exactly zero effs were given by Michelle Rodriguez and Cara Delevingne. The Fast And The Furious star hung out with the rabble-rousing model while watching the Knicks game, and we aren't going to go out on any limbs here by suggesting that perhaps some alcohol consumption took place. (We don't blame them; the Knicks/Pistons game was painful to watch.) They were sprawled all over the place, mugged for the camera, made out, and then smoked e-cigarettes. At a Knicks game. Because there is nothing that encourages athletes like drunk celebrities blowing smoke from courtside.
Legs and arms were akimbo, hair was messed up, and sitting upright in a chair seemed nigh impossible. All in all, the two seemed to enjoy mugging for the paps and getting their smooch on, which is totally kosher — except for the poor saps who were stuck sitting behind them. Let's break it down...

Samsung Q3 2014 Review: A Change Is NeededWestEnd511 • Sat, Nov. 1 • 1 Comment
- Samsung reported a weak Q3 that was in-line with its prior profit warning.
- Mobile is in a secular challenge with no near-term recovery.
- I prefer Lenovo over Samsung.
Samsung Could Refocus Growth Strategy As Q3 Earnings Plummet
- Samsung's smartphone business faces its biggest test yet, challenged by the arrival of Apple's large-screen iPhones and increasing competition from budget offerings.
- Semiconductor operations did well, aided by strong DRAM and NAND memory shipments.
- The consumer electronics division was weighed down by seasonally lower sales for appliances and lower pricing for televisions.
Mobile Business Slump Forcing Samsung To Refocus Its StrategyMaria Zahid • Mon, Oct. 27 • 3 Comments
- Samsung's pre-earning guidance for Q3 2014 indicated that sales and operating profits are declining due to an underperforming mobile segment.
- The company is losing market share, and is expected to face further declines, as competition in the market for Smartphones intensifies and smaller brands continue to outperform Samsung's phones.
- Samsung's chip business seems to be doing well and has reported strong growth in its pre-earnings guidance. In order to capitalize on this, the company has made a $15 billion investment in a new South Korean chip plant.
- Share prices have declined by nearly 20% in the past four months and the company has lost almost $45 billion in capitalization.
- Outlook for the stock seems to be bearish and investment is not recommended primarily because challenges in mobile (the main segment for the business) are going to continue.
With Sales In Freefall, Will Samsung Smartphones Go The Way Of BlackBerry And Nokia?Shock Exchange • Tue, Oct. 14 • 21 Comments
- Samsung warned that Q3 profit could decline by as much as 60% Y/Y. Its smartphone business is the worst performer.
- Smartphones are being hit on the low end by Chinese competitors and on the high end by Apple.
- Samsung's sharp decline is reminiscent of Nokia and BlackBerry, both of which once held commanding market share.
- If sales continue their freefall over the next several quarters, Samsung's smartphones could go the way of Nokia and BlackBerry.
Samsung's Chip Expansion Antagonistic For Micron? Wall Street, 'The Crowd' At OddsShock Exchange • Mon, Oct. 13 • 51 Comments
- Wall Street and certain members of the crowd are at odds over Samsung's intentions for its new $15B chip plant.
- Analysts believe Samsung is gearing up to supply explosive demand in memory, in particular, demand for the 2015 iPhone.
- Certain crowd members believe Samsung could attempt to steal share in semiconductors to offset losses in mobile phones. I am riding with the crowd.
- Samsung came out with a profit warning for the third quarter after disappointing in Q2.
- Rivals are pinching the company's market share on both the high and the low end.
- Apple's new iPhone is expected to put even more pressure on Samsung's sales.
- Samsung issued a profit warning, indicating that Q3 operating profit could fall 58%-62% y/y.
- Competitive pressure from AAPL and low-cost Android handset makers is the main driver behind the decline.
- OPM pressure is mostly due to ASP pressure rather than volume decline, suggesting much of the headwind comes from the low-end segment.
Here's Why Apple Has Samsung Beat On The High EndAlex Cho • Fri, Oct. 3 • 110 Comments
- Samsung Galaxy Note prices will drop at a higher rate following a launch based on historical trends.
- Samsung is pressured by competitive dynamics, commoditization and falling smartphone subsidies.
- These factors put Apple in a much better position to gain market share and reasserts why Apple will continue to outperform Samsung as an investment.
- Apple has been able to design and market superior products over time by keeping the vast majority of design and development in-house.
- Also, Apple's upcoming iPhone 6 and 6 Plus will have a higher blended average selling price, which will drive sales growth in future quarters.
Samsung Electronics: Is It Time For Activism?Weighing Machine • Thu, Oct. 2 • 4 Comments
- Samsung shares have fallen 17% over the past year and trade at just 8x 2014 estimated earnings (6x excluding cash).
- Investors are so concerned about the mobile phone business, the current share price implies a valuation of zero. Similarly, investors are concerned about the low dividend and lack of buybacks.
- An activist investor could potentially unlock value through a partial spin off of the phone business and using excess cash to repurchase cheap stock.
- Taking these simple actions could dramatically increase Samsung's stock price. Shares look to have 90% upside.

Carrier Support For Xiaomi Will Hurt SamsungAlcaraz Research • Fri, Sep. 12 • 9 Comments

- Apple's stock declined 4% due to positive reviews after the Samsung launch, and fears that the iPhone 6 launch would not live up to expectations.
- Xiaomi Corp. and Lenovo Group Ltd. are hitting Samsung on the lower end the market.
- Samsung's preemptive strike may have been an attempt to soften the blow from the iPhone 6 on the premium end of the market.
- Based on pent up demand, the iPhone 6 launch should be a success. I expect Apple's stock to bounce back above $100.

Tue, Nov. 18, 5:52 PM
- In addition to launching fewer smartphone models (thus providing more manufacturing scale for the models that are launched), Samsung (OTC:SSNLF) plans to improve its mobile cost-competitiveness by lowering OLED display costs.
- Samsung Display exec Lee Chang-hoon: "One of the superior things about AMOLED is that [because it has no backlight] it can become cheaper to produce compared to LCD. We are prepared to compete directly with LCD."
- Lee adds Samsung Display, which depends heavily on Samsung Electronics for OLED sales, hopes to get half its OLED sales from other customers in three years. Universal Display (NASDAQ:OLED) would be pleased if that happened.
- Also: Samsung plans to offer a flexible display that can be folded in half (previous) by year's end. However, the company's production targets are modest for now: It's looking to make just 30K-40K flexible displays per month by the end of 2015.
- Universal closed up 4.3% today. Shares fell two weeks ago after Universal disclosed (along with its Q3 results) Samsung isn't using its green host materials in certain new products (the Note 4 is a strong possibility). On its earnings CC (transcript), Universal said it's working on "higher-performing cost-effective next-generation emitter and hosting systems."
Tue, Nov. 18, 2:15 AM
- In a move to combat declining profit and high costs, Samsung (OTC:SSNLF, OTC:SSNGY) is cutting the number of smartphone models it offers next year by 25% to 30%. In October, Samsung reported a 49% drop in Q3 net profit.
- The decision will help Samsung reduce its large smartphone portfolio and better compete with cheaper models from rivals, such as Xiaomi.
Mon, Nov. 17, 5:27 PM
- BMO's Keith Bachman reports seeing improved U.S. iPhone 6 (NASDAQ:AAPL) supplies. "Whereas the iPhone 6 Plus was very hard to find a few weeks ago, supply has improved ... Whereas Apple stores were sold out of virtually all iPhone 6 models a few weeks ago, retail stores now appear to have almost half of the iPhone 6 models across the various carriers available for walk-in."
- Bachman does note there's still "virtually no available stock of iPhone 6 at carrier partner stores, such as AT&T and Verizon." However, online wait times at carrier stores have fallen in half to ~10 days.
- Apple's U.S. site typically shows wait times of 7-10 days for the iPhone 6, and 3-4 weeks for the 6 Plus. In October, there were multiple reports stating Apple is boosting 6 Plus production.
- Apple has added UnionPay, China's dominant payment-processor, as an App Store payment option. UnionPay credit/debit card holders will be able to link their cards with their Apple IDs, something Internet software/services chief Eddy Cue calls "one of the most requested features from [Apple's] customers in China." Quartz notes the agreement could pave the way for an Apple Pay deal.
- The Korea Times reports Samsung (OTC:SSNLF) will supply 80% of Apple's A-series app processors starting in 2016, thanks to a new agreement.
- While TSMC (NYSE:TSM) is manufacturing Apple's 20nm A8 processors, Samsung has been expected to supply a large portion (if not all) of Apple's A9 processors, leveraging a 14nm FinFET (3D transistor) process it's developing with Globalfoundries.
Thu, Nov. 13, 2:17 PM
- DirecTV (DTV +0.2%) will be the first pay-TV major to offer 4K UltraHD content to its subscriber base beginning tomorrow.
- 19 films from Paramount Pictures and K2 Communications will be available initially in the format.
- The company tipped off during its earnings conference call last week that 4K channels will be introduced in 2015.
- Samsung (OTC:SSNLF, OTC:SSNGY) is a partner with DirecTV on the UHD initiative.
- DirecTV earnings call transcript

Mon, Nov. 10, 2:38 AM
- Samsung Electronics (OTC:SSNLF, OTC:SSNGY) is planning on building a $3B smartphone plant in northern Vietnam, bringing the company's total investment pledges in the country this year to around $11B.
- Samsung has been increasing production in Vietnam to reduce costs and better compete with the low-priced smartphones of Chinese rivals.
- The factory will be built in the Thai Nguyen province, where it opened a $2B smartphone plant in March.
Thu, Oct. 30, 6:37 AM
- Samsung Electronics (OTC:SSNLF, OTC:SSNGY) reports that its net profit nearly halved during Q3, as its mobile business continued to face heavy competition from low-cost Chinese smartphone makers.
- Net profit during the quarter ended in September fell 49% Y/Y to 4.2T won ($4B). That followed a 20% profit decline in the previous quarter.
- Samsung also warned that uncertainty remains for its mobile business in the current quarter, since it will have to boost its marketing efforts to counter an anticipated year-end surge in competitors' smartphone launches.
Sat, Oct. 18, 3:36 PM
- Samsung (OTC:SSNLF) has developed technology that could increase the data capacity of NAND flash memory chips by as much 50%.
- Single-layer chips improve memory capacity and lower costs by narrowing circuit width. But many believe there is a physical limit to how narrow a circuit can be made. Multi-level chips can raise memory capacity without narrowing circuit width. Multi-level NAND chips are made by vertically stacking memory cells.
- The purported 50% increase can be achieved by combining 3-bit cells (vs. conventional 2-bit) with multi-layering.
- Source: Nikkei
Tue, Oct. 14, 12:35 PM
- Samsung Electronics (OTC:SSNLF) CEO Kwon Oh-hyun: "We'll have to wait and see how things will go next year, but there definitely will not be any game of chicken."
- Micron (MU +2.6%), SanDisk (SNDK +2.3%), and SK Hynix (OTC:HXSCL) must be happy to hear that. Micron and Hynix sold off in late July after Samsung hiked its 2014 DRAM production forecast, and all 3 names sold off last week after Samsung announced plans to spend $14.7B on a new chip fab.
- Cowen's Tim Arcuri recently downplayed concerns about the fab's impact on Micron. "We don't put a ton of stock in this announcement as we question when – or even whether – this fab will ultimately be built, and we also question the market's assumption that this would be DRAM."
- Bernstein pounded the table yesterday for Micron, highlighting a valuation of ~6x 2015E EPS and arguing fears about its exposure to a chip inventory correction (following Microchip's warning) are overblown. "The memory cycle has been more supply driven rather than demand driven ... if there is any short-term demand weakness memory makers can just decide to hold on to inventory as opposed to selling at a suboptimal price."
- Micron and SanDisk are both faring well on a strong day for tech.
Sun, Oct. 12, 8:37 PM
- Amid evaporating profits from its key mobile phones operation, Samsung (OTC:SSNLF, OTC:SSNGY) has fallen out of favor with investors thinking the company could be the next Motorola, Nokia, or BlackBerry, writes Andrew Bary. Another view, however, says Samsung looks more like Apple from a year and a half ago when it's stock plunged below $60 (split-adjusted), and traded at 6.5x earnings (excluding cash). Samsung today sells for 4.8x earnings, net of a $60B pile of cash and investments.
- "[Samsung's] semiconductor division and the cash are worth more than the current market cap," says Bernstein's Mark Newman, meaning investors are getting for free the world's largest maker of handsets, the leading display business, and the largest and most profitable TV maker.
- With $60B in cash against a $150B market cap (Apple has $133B and a $608B market cap), Samsung could find itself the target of an activist investor seeking share repurchases or a boost in the dividend (current yield 1.3%), but then again the Carl Icahns of this world can't as easily pressure family-controlled Korean companies the way they can Apple.
- The last word goes to CLSA's bullish Shaun Cochran: "It is ludicrous to compare Samsung to Nokia, BlackBerry, or Motorola ... Samsung has a history of reinventing itself time and time again. There is an institutional paranoia, a constant sense of crisis that has helped make Samsung so great."
Mon, Oct. 6, 8:01 PM
- Samsung (OTC:SSNLF, OTC:SSNGY) expects to report a Q3 op. profit of KRW4.1T ($3.8B), down 60% Y/Y and well below a KRW5.6T consensus. Revenue is expected to total KRW47T ($44B), down 20.5% Y/Y and below a KWT50.9T consensus.
- The Korean electronics giant blames weak mobile sales and a declining smartphone ASP. With its efforts to differentiate via proprietary software/services running on top of Google's Android often falling flat, Samsung has been losing share to Chinese OEMs offering aggressively-priced low-end and mid-range devices. More recently, it has also had to deal with the iPhone 6/6 Plus launch.
- The Q3 warning comes on the heels of July's soft Q2 numbers.
Mon, Oct. 6, 1:36 AM
- As it seeks growth beyond smartphones, Samsung Electronics (OTC:SSNLF, OTC:SSNGY) says it will invest 15.6T won ($14.7B) to build a new chip plant in South Korea.
- Construction of the facility will begin next year, with the aim to be completed in 2017.
- Samsung has been on a falling cycle of capital expenditure, which dropped to 10% of sales last fiscal year from 14% in 2010. It plans to devote the bulk of its capex, or W14.4T, to semiconductors this year.
Fri, Sep. 26, 2:41 PM
- Google (GOOG +0.5%) has been increasing the number of Google apps OEMs must pre-install on phones running the company's version of Android to "as many as 20," The Information reports, citing confidential docs.
- Google is also said to be requiring more apps be placed on the home screen or "in a prominent folder," and that Google search be given more prominence. Affected OEMs reportedly include Samsung (OTC:SSNLF), Huawei, and HTC.
- The bundling of Google apps/services (especially Google search) is pivotal to Google's Android monetization strategy. Moreover, Google's ability to mandate bundling, together with Android's ~80% smartphone unit share, helps keep the company's mobile traffic acquisition costs down - the Web giant reportedly makes huge traffic acquisition payments to Apple for Mobile Safari search integration.
- Regulators and OEMs haven't always been thrilled with Google's requirements. The WSJ reported in July EU regulators are likely to launch a formal probe of Google's Android licensing policies.
- In January, Re/code reported Samsung had agreed (in tandem with a new patent cross-license) to tone down support for its own apps/services (often less popular than Google's) on Android phones. More recently, Samsung has been reported to be moving engineers out of its mobile software ops to other units.

- A large patch of the retail sector will have their ears perked up this afternoon to see what Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) delivers up with its iWatch announcement or teaser.
- Though the company's entry into wearable technology is considered nearly a certainty, the unknown variable is if the product will end up falling under the "gadget" category or be another Apple device revolution.
- Computerworld's Mike Egan is in the latter camp: "The iWatch should be most comparable to the Mac and the iPhone, Apple's two most stunning revolution."
- Forrester Research isn't waiting for details, forecasting 10M iWatch sales by 2016 - a mark which could dent demand for high-end watches.
- Showtime is 1:00 pm ET. (webcast)
- Luxury watchmakers: Movado (NYSE:MOV), Fossil (NASDAQ:FOSL), Swatch (OTCPK:SWGAY), Tiffany (NYSE:TIF), Richemont (OTCPK:CFRUY), LVMH Moet Hennessy (OTCPK:LVMHF), Hermes (OTCPK:HESAF)
- Wearable technology players: Sony (NYSE:SNE), Nike (NYSE:NKE), Samsung (OTC:SSNLF, OTC:SSNGY), Garmin (NASDAQ:GRMN), Basis (NASDAQ:INTC), Fitbit, Jawbone, Adidas (OTCQX:ADDYY), Under Armour (NYSE:UA).

- The Gear VR, long rumored to be in the pipeline, relies on Samsung's (OTC:SSNLF, OTC:SSNGY) just-announced Galaxy Note 4 to run Oculus VR's (FB -1.1%) software, and provide the device's display and sensors. For now, no other phones work with the device.
- Unlike the gaming-focused Oculus Rift (still in beta), the Gear VR doesn't need a wired connection to a PC. Users interact with the headset through a trackpad and head movements. No price details have been given yet.
- Initial testers are intrigued by the Gear VR's potential, but are also quick to point out content/game support and software/UI development are still very much works in progress. Samsung/Oculus promise a content store will soon be available, and note initial content partners include DreamWorks, Warner Bros., Fox, and Marvel.
- Facebook was recently reported to be working with Hollywood on Oculus deals. Meanwhile, Oculus CEO Brendan Iribe has made it clear he considers OEM deals crucial to his firm's efforts to drive mass adoption of its platform, which has a solid head-start on rivals from a software standpoint. Competition will be provided by Sony's Morpheus headset and Google's Cardboard Android VR platform.
