AT&T Inc. (T:US) Chief Executive Officer Randall Stephenson said Washington needs to figure out how to clear a regulatory logjam that's hampering wireless growth and forcing companies to raise prices.
The industry is waiting for the Federal Communications Commission to decide on Verizon Wireless's proposed $3.6 billion partnership with cable companies, including Comcast Corp. (CMCSA:US) The review of that agreement, announced in December, is holding up related deals for spectrum by AT&T and others, Stephenson said.
The popularity of the iPhone and other smartphones is putting pressure on existing networks, prompting wireless carriers to seek more capacity in crowded markets. The FCC has to sign off on each transaction, and its rate of decision making can't keep pace with the industry's evolving needs, he said.
"The industry is just kind of stuck and we're all sitting here watching Verizon-Comcast waiting to see what happens," Stephenson said yesterday in an interview at Bloomberg headquarters in New York. "You have got to make sure we put spectrum in the market. They need to become liquid spectrum markets."
AT&T, based in Dallas, says it faces a shortage of spectrum -- the airwaves that let mobile devices make calls and download data. Ever since its $39 billion takeover of T-Mobile USA Inc. was shot down by regulators in December, Stephenson has warned that the constraints on airwave expansion will cause higher prices. When spectrum is tight, the only recourse carriers have is to charge more, degrade quality or throttle service, he said.
No Delay?
FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski fired back at AT&T this week, saying that the failure of the T-Mobile deal didn't create an industry shortage on its own. There hasn't been a holdup in the regulatory process, he said.
"We have approved hundreds of wireless transactions involving approximately 1,000 spectrum licenses, some involving licenses valued at billions of dollars," Genachowski said in a speech at the CTIA International Wireless show this week.
AT&T won approval from federal regulators for a $1.93 billion purchase of Qualcomm Inc. (QCOM:US) airwaves in December, three days after dropping its plan to buy T-Mobile USA.
Neil Grace, a spokesman for the FCC, declined to comment yesterday.
Leap Talks
In February, the Wall Street Journal reported that AT&T was in takeover talks with Leap Wireless International Inc. (LEAP:US), a pay- as-you-go carrier in San Diego. A Reuters report reiterated yesterday that AT&T had held discussions with Leap in recent months, boosting Leap's shares 7.8 percent today.
Gregory Miller, an analyst with Collins Stewart LLC, said in February that there was little chance of AT&T buying Leap.
AT&T shares rose 1.4 percent to $33.59 at the close in New York. The stock has climbed 11 percent this year.
AT&T, the second-largest U.S. wireless-service provider, says that the industry would push ahead with more spectrum purchases if the government weighed in on Verizon (VZ:US)'s agreement with cable companies. That deal would let Verizon, the No. 1 U.S. carrier, buy a major swath of unused spectrum from a group led by Comcast.
Companies should be able to buy and sell spectrum more freely, letting them better satisfy regional demand, Stephenson said. A carrier in one city may have low market share and more than enough spectrum, while another company has lots of customers and inadequate airwaves to serve them. The government approval process doesn't let the industry make deals quickly enough to meet customers' needs, AT&T argues.
Fostering Competition
For its part, the FCC is trying to balance the allocation of spectrum so that customers always have several service providers to choose from. The intent is to keep prices down by ensuring competition.
Stephenson said that distributing spectrum among competitors who can't use it efficiently doesn't help. The government either has to let companies pool their spectrum or risk pushing underperforming companies out of business, he said.
"The industry is going to consolidate whether you like it or not," he said. "If you don't allow consolidation, some companies will go away."

Photos: Did Michael Maher play dress-up at both High Park and Lower North Fork Fire?
Update: In our original post about Michael Maher, who's accused of impersonating a firefighter tackling the ultra-destructive High Park blaze (see our earlier coverage below), we noted that his alleged impersonation suggested that he'd been trying something new in comparison with his previous criminal gambits. Wrong, says the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office, whose investigators believe he pulled the exact some scheme during the Lower North Fork Fire in March -- and there are photos aplenty to bolster the argument.Michael Maher.
During the earlier blaze, what a JCSO release describes as a "firefighter," complete with quotes, was issued a chainsaw, two Pulaski firefighting tools, a portable radio, a portable fire shelter, goggles, some ready-to-eat meals and a few other items valued at $2,400.
Shockingly enough, this gear wasn't returned after the fire was extinguished -- but some of it turned up a few months later, in a different location.
As we reported below, Maher, whose record includes sexual assault on a child charges, a disorderly conduct conviction and a DUI bust, was nabbed for masquerading as a High Park firefighter after his truck, with a missing government license plate affixed, was eyeballed in LaPorte. Authorities noted that some stolen doodads were found inside it -- and one of them turned out to be a radio snatched from Jeffco.Some of the tools Maher allegedly stole from Jeffco.
Yesterday, a search of Maher's residence turned up more stuff: the chainsaw, the Pulaski tools and some of the MREs, plus several Nomex pants and shirts, miscellaneous U.S. Forest Service outfits, a USFS qualification card and the sort of red-and-blue bubble-light rig capable of making his ride seem like an emergency vehicle.
Jeffco hasn't formally filed against Maher yet, but charges against him could include felony theft, felony criminal impersonation and misdemeanor impersonation of a public servant. Of course, readers can also accuse him of being a douchebag, but that's entirely up to them.
One more thing: 9News interviewed two women who say Maher raped them when they were teens -- hence the sexual assault on a child accusations noted above, which date back to 2003. (He was originally charged with a felony, but he pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor the following year.) According to them, Maher used to drive around with a firefighter's helmet in his truck. Hmmmm.
Here the 9News report, followed by photos of the recovered Lower North Fork booty and more, plus our previous reportage.

Anyhow, done with my mini rant..not only have I been having issues with people, Firestorm decided to be difficult and not let me do pretty shadow pics with mesh hair. I dled the latest release and shadows and mesh hair was just NOT going to happen. So I reverted back to 3.0.1 Firestorm and was able to continue my pics but with horrible laggg. I will say with the new download, I had close to nada lag so was kind of sad to revert back to lag fest city;/
On a better note, I loved Wasabi Pills new mesh do's...now if the viewers would comply better with them it would be awesome :P I will note that sometimes taking your mesh hair off and putting it back on in shadows fixes the problem (but not on latest firestorm release). I only blast on the shadows when I am doing pics so if you are like me, this hair looks gorge any other time ^^

Devil's Train is a new outfit that features R.D. Liapakis (of Mystic Prophecy fame), guitarist extraordinaire Laki Ragazas and two guys from Stratovarius, Jorg Michael and Jari Kainulainen. Their self-titled debut record shares a nostalgic view of the past (and most specifically the late 80s) and the sonic outcome is more than satisfactory. Laki Ragazas calls us from Northern Greece and explains what happens...on the ride with train 666 or more accurately...on the ride with Devil's Train!
Interview: Sakis Nikas
Rockpages.gr: Laki, please, tell us how did a respectable guitarist like you reserved...a ticket with Devil's Train?
Laki Ragazas: (laughs)…well, the whole thing started really in the autumn of 2009 when I and R.D. Liapakis discussed about the possibility of forming a hard rock band as he wanted t play something different in comparison to Mystic Prophecy. I had written a few songs and I was searching to start a band like the one that Dimitris wanted. We started working together in March 2010 and in 10 days we almost had the album in our hands…unbelievable chemistry!
Rockpages.gr: You know…I think that the chemistry and the energy are really obvious on the record…
Laki Ragazas: I agree! In January 2010, Dimitris got to meet Jorg (Michael)…it was around the time that Stratovarius were touring with Mystic Prophecy. He suggested the idea to Jorg…he offered him to be the drummer of Devil's Train and Jorg accepted immediately as soon as he heard some early ideas of songs as he is a big fan of that music.
Rockpages.gr: Is this really a regular group or an one-off project?
Laki Ragazas: We deal with the whole thing as a real band! In the very beginning, it might not have seemed that way as everyone had his own regular thing to think off but now all four of us view Devil's Train as a regular band!
Rockpages.gr: I grew up in the 80s and personally I think that this was the golden era for the hard n' heavy sound. Do you agree and if yes, what was the reason for that?
Laki Ragazas: Absolutely…I agree! I was also a teenager in the late 80s and as you can gather I feel really comfortable in the musical environment of Devil's Train as that kind of music is really familiar to me. Hard rock in the late 80s was at its very peak…no one can deny it. It was a time when there was no internet available, you discovered on your own all the bands, you were looking forward to read even a small excerpt of an interview of your favorite band just to get a hint of the new album or tour…all in all, you were really connected with the bands and the music. Same thing applied to bands, too as their only way of communication with their fans was the concert. Naturally, here in Greece there were very few shows booked but I must say that there was more feeling found in the songs of the 80s. t least, that's my perspective.
Rockpages.gr: Recently, you shot a video for your version of the classic "American Woman". Why did you decide to give a first glance of the band through a cover tune?
Laki Ragazas: We talked with the people of our label and they really wanted to push this song. Look…if you listen closely to the song you will notice that there are lots of Devil's Train elements in there that I dare to say that we made it kind of our own…it's like a brand new Devil's Train composition. We left our stamp on a classic song…
Rockpages.gr: Judging by the final result, I'd say that you must have had a great time during the video shooting....
Laki Ragazas: It was awesome…in fact, we were really lucky because there was a great sunny day in Greece at the time. In 24 hours we shot 2 video clips, had barbeque, called the Harley Davidson guys to participate in the video…beers, food, laughs…everything! Watch out for the second clip in the upcoming days…
Rockpages.gr: For which song…?
Laki Ragazas: "Sweet Devil's Kiss"
Rockpages.gr: Were you aware that "Devil's Train" was a well-known song by Hank Williams?
Laki Ragazas: Yes! Although, I am not the biggest fan of that type of music, I must tell you that I love the warmness of the blues-based guitar and I hope that this is evident in my playing.
Rockpages.gr: How about the touring plans of the band...?
Laki Ragazas: It's really too early…we are still talking about it with the label. So, I can't really tell a lot about that but I am sure that something good will come up.
Rockpages.gr: Will Jorg's health condition cause a problem to the whole arrangement of a possible tour?
Laki Ragazas: As everyone knows, Jorg had to deal with some serious health issues that appeared around November 2010…when I saw him in January 2011 he was in good spirits although clearly weak. Nevertheless, he was never down-hearted and always optimistic. Now that I saw him again for the shooting of the 2 video-clips of Devil's Train he was obviously healthy and he seems to have gotten over it. I wish him nothing but the very best because he is not only a great musician but a fabulous human being!
Rockpages.gr: Do you still give guitar lessons?
Laki Ragazas: Oh yeah…I divide my time in between an odium and private lessons here at Thessaloniki. It's a part of my job that I really enjoy. I think it's a great responsibility to teach and see your students getting better and better but also discover the mysteries of rock music.
Rockpages.gr: My good friend and chief editor of Rockpages, Yannis Dolas, has told e to ask you this: "Why don't you leave Greece and follow your dreams in Europe or USA? After all, you are more than capable to do so...".
Laki Ragazas: In a way this happens now with Devil's Train. The fact that I am living in Greece, it's no longer a disadvantage because with modern technology you can record a whole album without even being in the same studio with the rest of the guys. This was almost unthinkable in the 80s and 90s. I am not thinking at the moment of relocating somewhere in Europe…
Rockpages.gr: What are your thoughts of the current social and political situation in Greece? How's that turmoil influences the Greek music scene in general?
Laki Ragazas: To tell you the truth and be blatantly open about it, I must say that I was always, personally, in an economical crisis. If you choose to make a living by being a professional musician, then you must be ready to endure some very difficult situations. But on the other hand, it makes you a better person, a person who does not rely on others but only on himself! I totally sympathize my fellow citizens who are passing through very hard times but I sincerely hope that this could be the start of a new, better ear for Greece; an era where we won't need false messiahs and politicians to save the day.

text: That thing where a bunch of other things seem to come together at once. We'd just seen the moving official clip for Chase & Status' "Alive," which features a huge vocal from Jacob Banks. Two days later, Todd Edwards proclaims that he has recently regained all of his original music. Of course they end up colliding, with Todd Edwards knocking out an official remix of "Alive," placing Banks' vocal front and center while this bassline that he created grows to mammoth proportions, becoming ingrained in your being for the time it's on… and some time after. It's a huge track, and one that makes us wish his album was dropping very soon. Get on board.

Badly handled complaint
January 28, 2015
Had a confirmed reservation for a one-bedroom suite. After check-in found we were assigned a studio "suite". Immediately returned to the front desk and two different people told me I received the room the reservation system said I was supposed to get. Later checked my e-mailed confirmation and verified the one-bedroom suite but indeed, now the reservation system said studio. Complained to IHG Customer Care. They requested a hotel manager contact me and explain. Never, ever, heard from management at the hotel. Spent 3 nights stuck in the smallest room in the hotel with a roll away. Hotel was nearly empty the last 2 nights but never an offer to move us to the room we reserved. After 3 e-mails IHG added points to my rewards club account but never answered any of my questions about how or why my reservation was changed with no notice or explanation to me. Also, no recognition at the hotel as a Rewards Club member. Guess a confirmed reservation does not mean anything at this IHG property. Front desk was helpful in finding a roll away.

Had a great stay but staying on the first floor there was quite a bit of second floor thumping (people walking) that was a little annoying at times and the automatic door closing made the doors slam too loud.
Awesome Hotel Staff

In town for an all weekend tennis tourney. Staff were friendly to the teenagers I was traveling with and seemed generally interested in them.
Rooms were spacious and rooms were quiet enough to nap in the afternoon between matches. It was neat to have fully stocked kitchen so we could do breakfast and lunch in the room and only eat out at dinner. Helped keep the expense of the weekend to a budget.
The lending locker was neat and a nice free amenity.

During the June 2012 quarter the Company divested itself of and discontinued the food industry segment and now operates as one reportable business segment.
Effective with this Annual Report on Form 10-K, the Company has changed its accounting principle with regard to customs duty and no longer includes customs duty as a component of revenue or forwarding expense. The net effect of this change is a reduction to revenue with a corresponding equal reduction to forwarding expense. Refer to Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Years ended September 30, 2013 and 2012
Revenue. Total revenue from continuing operations for fiscal 2013 was $44,744,518, as compared to $49,837,461 for the same period of fiscal 2012, a decrease of $5,092,946 or 10.2%. This decrease is mainly the result of lower ocean import shipping activity when compared to the prior year. Net revenue (revenue minus forwarding expense) from continuing operations in fiscal 2013 was $6,264,544, a decrease of $554,851 or 8.1% as compared to net revenue of $6,819,395 for fiscal 2012.
Forwarding Expense. Forwarding expense from continuing operations is primarily comprised of the fees paid by Janel directly to cargo carriers to handle and transport its actual freight shipments on behalf of its customers between initial and final terminal points, and includes any trucking and warehousing charges related to the shipments.
For fiscal 2013, forwarding expense from continuing operations decreased by $4,538,092, or 10.6%, to $38,479,974 as compared to $43,018,066 for fiscal 2012 and as a percentage of revenue decreased to 86.0% for fiscal 2013, from 86.3% for fiscal 2012, a 0.3 percentage point decrease. This percentage decrease is principally the result of higher forwarding expense on ocean import shipping activity when compared to the prior year.
Selling, General and Administrative Expense. For fiscal 2013 and 2012, selling, general and administrative expenses from continuing operations were $6,433,722 and $6,757,816, respectively, a decrease of $324,094, or 4.8% when compared to the prior year mainly due to staff and payroll cost reductions. As a percentage of revenue, selling, general and administrative expenses were 14.4% and 13.6% of revenue for fiscal 2013 and 2012, respectively, an 0.8 percentage point increase which is mainly the result of the decrease in revenue for fiscal 2013 when compared to the prior year and expenses which do not decrease in proportion to lower revenue.
Depreciation and Amortization . For fiscal 2013 and 2012, depreciation and amortization expenses from continuing operations were $19,191 and $31,154, respectively. This represents a year over year decrease of $11,963, or 38.4%, and is mainly the result of a minimal amount of capital expenditure during fiscal 2013 and 2012.
Interest Expense . For fiscal 2013 and 2012, interest expense from continuing operations was $121,021 and $94,454, respectively, an increase of $25,567. This increase is primarily the result of higher interest costs due to increased borrowings under our revolving line of credit with Community National Bank during fiscal 2013 versus 2012.
Loss From Continuing Operations. For the reasons stated above, the Company incurred a loss before taxes from continuing operations of ($314,106) and ($65,029) for the fiscal years ended 2013 and 2012, respectively.
Income Taxes. The company recorded a net income tax provision of $17,000 and $1,221,304 for fiscal 2013 and 2012, respectively. Fiscal 2013 only reflects applicable state income taxes and fiscal 2012 reflects applicable state income taxes and an expense in the amount of $1,184,003 to provide for a valuation allowance against the deferred tax asset.
Loss From Discontinued Operations. On August 28, 2013 the Company sold its New Jersey freight forwarding and logistics operations and in June 2012 discontinued its food segment business. As a result, the New Jersey operations and some ongoing expenses associated with the food segment are included in discontinued operations. Fiscal 2013 and 2012 reflect a loss from discontinued operations of ($1,827,128) and ($1,392,383), respectively. Refer to Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Net Loss. For fiscal 2013 and 2012, the Company incurred a net loss of ($2,158,234) and ($2,678,716), respectively. Net loss available to common shareholders for fiscal 2013 and 2012 was ($2,173,234) or ($0.09) per diluted share and ($2,693,716) or ($0.12) per diluted share, respectively.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
General. Our ability to satisfy our liquidity requirements, which include satisfying our debt obligations and funding working capital, day-to-day operating expenses and capital expenditures depends upon our future performance, which is subject to general economic conditions, competition and other factors, some of which are beyond our control. We depend on our commercial credit facilities to fund our day-to-day operations as there is a timing difference between our collection cycles and the timing of our payments to vendors. Generally we do not have a need for significant capital expenditure as we are a non-asset based freight forwarder.
Janel's cash flow performance for the 2013 fiscal year is not necessarily indicative of future cash flow performance.
As of September 30, 2013, and compared with the prior fiscal year, the Company's cash and cash equivalents decreased by ($148,284), or (19.2%), to $625,584 from $773,868, respectively. During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, Janel's net working capital (current assets minus current liabilities) decreased by ($2,159,572) from $1,976,234 at September 30, 2012, to a negative ($183,338) at September 30, 2013. This decrease is primarily due to the net loss of ($2,158,234) for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013.
Cash flows from continuing operating activities. Net cash used in continuing operating activities for fiscal 2013 was ($283,267) and net cash provided by continuing operations for fiscal 2012 was $394,743. The change was principally driven by a decrease in the collection of outstanding accounts receivable, an increase in payments of outstanding accounts payable, the receipt in fiscal 2012 of a federal tax refund and a change in the deferred tax asset; which were partially offset by a reduction in the net loss from continuing operations when compared to the prior year and a decrease in payments for prepaid expenses and other sundry assets.
Cash flows from discontinued operating activities. Net cash provided by discontinued operating activities was $97,818 for fiscal 2013 and net cash used in discontinued operating activities was ($786,609) for fiscal 2012.
Cash flows from investing activities . Net cash provided by investing activities, primarily the sale of the assets of our New Jersey operations and marketable securities, was $528,065 for fiscal 2013. Net cash used for investing activities, primarily capital expenditures for property and equipment, was ($7,754) for fiscal 2012.
Cash flows from financing activities . Net cash used in financing activities was ($490,900) for fiscal 2013 and net cash provided by financing activities was 698,733 for fiscal 2012. The cash used in financing activities for fiscal 2013 consisted primarily of the repayment of long-term debt of ($305,900) and a net decrease of ($170,000) under our bank line of credit. The cash provided by financing activities for fiscal 2012 consisted primarily of an increase of $650,000 in borrowings under our bank line of credit, the sale on October 14, 2011 of 750,000 shares of the Company's common stock for $150,000 and the repayment of a loan receivable in the amount of $92,817; which were partially offset by the repayment of a note payable in the amount of $100,000.
Community National Bank Borrowing Facility. On August 3, 2010, the Company's Janel Group of New York, Inc. ("Janel New York") subsidiary entered into a one year $3.5 million revolving line of credit agreement with Community National Bank ("CNB"). The CNB Facility has been periodically renewed. Currently, the interest rate of the CNB Facility is the prime rate plus 1%, with a minimum rate of 7%. On September 30, 2013, the CNB Facility was extended from September 30, 2013 to January 31, 2014. As part of the extension, CNB (i) reduced the Credit Facility to $1,731,336 (the amount of borrowings outstanding at that time), (ii) requires that 80% of the collections on eligible (under the borrowing base) accounts receivable from the Company's former Hillside, New Jersey freight forwarding and logistics operations which was sold on August 30, 2013 (the "NJ Collections"), be used to pay down borrowings under the Credit Facility within 10 days of collection, and (iii) will not allow any additional borrowings during the extension period. Obligations under the CNB Facility are secured by all of the assets of the Company, are guaranteed by the Company, and are guaranteed by James N. Jannello, the Company's retired founder and Chief Executive Officer. As of September 30, 2013, after the required repayment of $300,000 of NJ Collections, there were outstanding borrowings of $1,431,336 under the CNB Facility. On December 9, 2013, subsequent to the period covered by this report, the company repaid $156,000 to CNB, reducing the amount of borrowings outstanding under the Credit Facility to $1,275,336. This repayment was a result of NJ Collections for the period October 1, 2013 through November 30, 2013 and after this repayment there are no further repayments required from the NJ Collections. On August 30, 2013, the Company used a portion of the cash proceeds from the sale of its New Jersey operations to repay the $229,241outstanding balance on its 2011 term loan from CNB.
Working Capital Requirements. The Company's cash needs are currently met by the CNB Facility and cash on hand. As of September 30, 2013 the Company had $625,584 in cash on hand and under the current extension with CNB the Company is not allowed any additional borrowings under the CNB Facility. Our actual working capital needs for the short and long terms will depend upon numerous factors, including our operating results, the availability of a revolving line of credit, competition, and the cost associated with growing the Company either internally or through acquisition, none of which can be predicted with certainty. If our results of operations and our availability under our bank line of credit are insufficient to meet our cash needs, we will be required to obtain additional investment capital or debt funding to continue operations. On October 30, 2013, subsequent to the period covered by this report, the Company raised $500,000 from the sale of newly issued shares of the Company's Common Stock at a price of $0.065 per share. The Company also issued five-year warrants to the investor for up to an additional $1,000,000 investment upon exercise for additional newly issued shares of the Company's common stock at a price of $0.08. We intend to use the proceeds from these sales for general working capital purposes. We are also currently seeking a credit facility to replace our current bank financing. If the investor does not exercise the warrants, and/or the Company is not able to renew the CNB Facility upon acceptable terms to us or obtain replacement financing for the CNB Facility, the Company's operations will be materially negatively impacted.
Current Outlook
Our results of operations are affected by the general economic cycle, particularly as it influences global trade levels and specifically the import and export activities of Janel's various current and prospective customers. Historically, the Company's quarterly results of operations have been subject to seasonal trends which have been the result of, or influenced by, numerous factors including climate, national holidays, consumer demand, economic conditions, the growth and diversification of its international network and service offerings, and other similar and subtle forces. We cannot accurately forecast many of these factors nor can we estimate accurately the relative influence of any particular factor and, as a result, there can be no assurance that historical patterns, if any, will continue in future periods.
Our food segment incurred losses and the Company's Board of Directors determined that it was in the Company's best interests to divest the food segment and refocus our growth strategy on our transportation logistics business. During June 2012, the company divested itself of the food segment and as a result, the losses from the food segment have been eliminated.
Janel is progressing with the implementation of its business plan and strategy to grow its revenue and profitability for fiscal 2013 and beyond through several avenues. The Company's strategy for further growth includes plans to: open, as warranted, additional branch offices domestically and/or outside the continental United States; introduce additional revenue streams for its existing headquarters and branch locations; expand its existing sales force by hiring additional commission-only sales representatives with established customer bases; increase its focus on growing revenue related to export activities; evaluate direct entry into the trucking and warehouse distribution business as a complement to the services already provided to existing customers; seek out and pursue privately held transportation-related firms which may ultimately lead to their acquisition by the Company; and continue its focus on containing current and prospective overhead and operating expenses, particularly with regard to the efficient integration of any additional offices or acquisitions.
Certain elements of our profitability and growth strategy, principally proposals for acquisition and accelerating our revenue growth are contingent upon the availability of adequate financing on terms acceptable to the Company. On October 30, 2013, subsequent to the period covered by this report, the Company raised $500,000 from the sale of newly issued shares of the Company's Common Stock at a price of $0.065 per share. The Company also issued five-year warrants to the investor for up to an additional $1,000,000 investment upon exercise for additional newly issued shares of the company's common stock at a price of $0.08. We are currently seeking a credit facility to replace our current bank financing. If the investor does not exercise the warrants, and/or the Company is not able to renew the CNB Facility upon acceptable terms to us or obtain replacement financing for the CNB Facility, the Company's operations will be materially negatively impacted. Therefore, the implementation of significant aspects of our strategic growth plan may be delayed.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations discusses the Company's consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Since future events and their effects cannot be determined with absolute certainty, the determination of estimates requires the exercise of judgment. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and such difference may be material to the financial statements. The most significant accounting estimates inherent in the preparation of our financial statements include estimates as to the appropriate carrying value of certain assets and liabilities which are not readily apparent from other sources, primarily allowance for doubtful accounts, accruals for transportation and other direct costs, accruals for cargo insurance, and deferred income taxes. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various assumptions which are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. We reevaluate these significant factors as facts and circumstances change. Historically, actual results have not differed significantly from our estimates. These accounting policies are more fully described in Note 1 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Management believes that the nature of the Company's business is such that there are few, if any, complex challenges in accounting for operations. Revenue recognition is considered the critical accounting policy due to the complexity of arranging and managing global logistics and supply-chain management transactions.
Revenue Recognition
A. Full-Service Cargo Transportation Logistics Management
Revenues are derived from airfreight, ocean freight and custom brokerage services. The Company is a non-asset-based carrier and accordingly does not own transportation assets. The Company generates the major portion of its air and ocean freight revenues by purchasing transportation services from direct carriers (airlines, steam ship lines, etc.) and reselling those services to its customers. By consolidating shipments from multiple customers and availing itself of its buying power, the Company is able to negotiate favorable rates from the direct carriers, while offering to its customers lower rates than the customers could obtain themselves.
Airfreight revenues include the charges for carrying the shipments when the Company acts as a freight consolidator. Ocean freight revenues include the charges for carrying the shipments when the Company acts as a Non-Vessel Operating Common Carrier (NVOCC). In each case, the Company is acting as an indirect carrier. When acting as an indirect carrier, the Company will issue a House Airway Bill (HAWB) or a House Ocean Bill of Lading (HOBL) to customers as the contract of carriage. In turn, when the freight is physically tendered to a direct carrier, the Company receives a contract of carriage known as a Master Airway Bill for airfreight shipments and a Master Ocean Bill of Lading for ocean shipments. At this point the risk of loss passes to the carrier, however, in order to claim for any such loss, the customer is first obligated to pay the freight charges.
Based upon the terms in the contract of carriage, revenues related to shipments where the Company issues a HAWB or a HOBL are recognized at the time the freight is tendered to the direct carrier. Costs related to the shipments are recognized at the same time.
Revenues realized when the Company acts as an agent for the shipper and does not issue a HAWB or a HOBL include only the commission and fees earned for the services performed. These revenues are recognized upon completion of the services.
Customs brokerage and other services involves provide multiple services at destination including clearing shipments through customs by preparing required documentation, calculating and providing for payment of duties and other charges on behalf of the customers, arranging for any required inspections, and arranging for final delivery. These revenues are recognized upon completion of the services. Effective with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, the Company has changed its accounting principle and no longer includes customs duty as a component of revenue. Refer to Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
The movement of freight may require multiple services. In most instances the Company may perform multiple services including destination break bulk and value added services such as local transportation, distribution services and logistics management. Each of these services has separate fee that is recognized as revenue upon completion of the service.
Customers will frequently request an all-inclusive rate for a set of services that is known in the industry as "door-to-door services." In these cases, the customer is billed a single rate for all services from pickup at origin to delivery. The allocation of revenue and expense among the components of services when provided under an all inclusive rate are done in an objective manner on a fair value basis in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) 00-21, "Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables."
While judgments and estimates are a necessary component of any system of accounting, the Company's use of estimates is limited primarily to the following areas that in the aggregate are not a major component of the Company's consolidated statements of Comprehensive loss:
a. accounts receivable valuation;
b. the useful lives of long-term assets;
c. the accrual of costs related to ancillary services the Company provides;
d. accrual of tax expense on an interim basis; and
e. deferred tax valuation allowance.
Management believes that the methods utilized in all of these areas are non-aggressive in approach and consistent in application. Management believes that there are limited, if any, alternative accounting principles or methods which could be applied to the Company's transactions. While the use of estimates means that actual future results may be different from those contemplated by the estimates, the Company believes that alternative principles and methods used for making such estimates would not produce materially different results than those reported.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or other standard setting bodies that may have an impact on the Company's accounting and reporting. The Company believes that such recently issued accounting pronouncements and other authoritative guidance for which the effective date is in the future either will not have an impact on its accounting or reporting or that such impact will not be material to its financial position, results of operations, and cash flows when implemented.

The 10 Best Visual Effects Scenes of 2011
There's a backlash building in Hollywood against the overuse of computer-generated imagery (CGI). For the most part, though, 2011's popcorn blockbusters still leaned heavily on green screens and render farms to produce the most spectacular visual effects (VFX) of the year. Here are our picks for the scenes that proved that pixels can still impress us (even when the movies they populate don't).
By Erik Sofge
5. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Pt. 2: Trouble with Treasure
The last movie in the series is packed with thunderous spells and swooping aerial sequences, the sort of swashbuckling visuals a franchise is supposed to end with. It's the scene in Gringott's Bank, though, where Harry and company are searching a vault for an item that could help kill off his archnemesis, that stands out. Treasure scattered around the enchanted storage space starts multiplying at an exponential rate, threatening to drown the characters in its gilded undertow. The fact that the propagating treasure is 100 percent CG is hard to believe, given the way to rattles, tumbles, and reflects against the actors.

When I worked there I was told by manangers that you can't date managers/supervisors in your own work area.
As we do here in our Elementary School District. My Board instituted a policy where We have a no hire of relatives. We are a tiny tiny Hamlet and it becomes very dicey with life's being inter-woven. Should they start to date or marry one must transfer out of the school if they are both at the same school. Seniority rules unless the less senior is a hard to place employee, the Superintendent has final decision and it cannot be appealed.
If the employee is at the bottom of the tenure list, out they are.
Our High School is a Co-Op and a large portion of the staff has married other staff members over the years. In one of my DD classes the wife always came in mid class and ate while her husband conducted class. Reasoning, it was the only time during the day she could spend time with him!!! :wow:
I think the picture real or not is cute. My son too dated another CM. They didn't work at the same area so while at work it was not an issue.
From my experience as a CM it is just as some people have said, you can't date a supervisor or supervisee (for obvious reasons) and they discourage dating within the same area. i know plenty of CMs who date and have gotten married, WDW celebrates it, shows pictures on the CM website. It's not a big deal.
As a Cast Member, the real issue I think is that the picture was shown to the public, breaking character integrity. Lots of CMs date, in the same area and otherwise, and I've seen couples holding hands, etc. backstage. However photographs of any kind of any backstage area are not allowed, especially one ruining the magic of the characters.

VIDEO: Peter Facinelli, Kellan Lutz and Nikki Reed Talk 'New Moon'
No doubt about it, New Moon is the talk of this year's Comic-Con and, while most of the attention has been focused on Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner, they're not the only ones promoting the Twilight sequel.
Twilight dad Peter Facinelli, accompanied by castmates Nikki Reed and Kellan Lutz, sat down with Wired magazine to discuss the more technical aspects of filming the vampire saga.
Such as the vampire makeup, which, in Twilight, employed a "weird, Japanese airbrush system" where "if someone touches you, you get a shock."
Yowch! Good thing they changed the formula for New Moon.
But special effects aside, Facinelli believes that the true appeal of the Twilight saga is its "timeless" theme.
"It's Romeo and Juliet set in the vampire world," Facinelli opines.
Sounds like a reasonable assessment to us. Check out the video below:

Paul McCartney writes to Russian officials in support of hunger striking Pussy Riot member
Paul McCartney has written a letter in support of Pussy Riot's Maria Alyokhina, who has announced that she is going on hunger strike after being refused the right to attend her own parole hearing.
McCartney has also written another letter in support of jailed Pussy Riot member Nadezhda Tolokonnikova, who was last month denied parole. The letters have been sent to Russian officials, asking them to consider releasing the two incarcerated women.
Excerpts from the letters have been posted at PaulMcCartney.com. His letter concerning Alyokhina reads:
"My personal belief is that further incarceration for Maria will be harmful for her and the situation as a whole, which, of course, is being watched by people all over the world. In the great tradition of fair-mindedness which the Russian people (many of whom are my friends) are famous for, I believe that you granting this request would send a very positive message to all the people who have followed this case."
Regarding Tolokonnikova he wrote: "I have had a long relationship with the Russian people, and, with this in mind, I am making the following request in a spirit of friendship for my many Russian acquaintances who, like me, believe in treating people - all people, with compassion and kindness."
Tolokonnikova and Alyokhina were jailed for two years in August 2012 for breach of public order motivated by religious hatred after staging their infamous 'punk prayer' protest against Vladimir Putin in Moscow's Christ the Saviour Cathedral. A third woman, Yekaterina Samutsevich was released on a suspended sentence last October.

This product is super sheer, very much like a tinted moisturizer. It is hard to build and made my pores seem even larger. I dont even have oily skin, but this product manages to make me a greaseball by the end of the day!
Coverage was too sheer, it felt dewey. I could feel my pores being clogged by it. It did not give me a smooth finish or cover any of my acne scars. I had to return it a couple times because I thought I was getting shades that were too light then I realized this BB Cream just sucks for my oily skin.
This was my first foray into BB creams and I haven't been disappointed. I have tried applying with a foundation brush and with my fingers, and have found using just my fingers best. Unlike the Clinique and Elizabeth Arden tinted moisturisers I used previously that seemed to sit on top of my skin, and got quite itchy after a few hours, this seems to melt right in.
I bought the "Apricot - Universal" shade of this BB cream while traveling in Germany. I was skeptical the bright orange "universal" shade would suit my tan skin, but it blended in fantastically, neutralising redness and blurring any blemishes. For reference, I am a MAC NW40-NW45 depending on how much sun I've seen. :)
It is quite a light coverage, so if you're looking at hiding spots or marks, you may need to layer with other products such as a concealer. I don't consider this an alternative to a proper liquid foundation - but it's perfect for me for every day use as I don't like wearing a lot of makeup.
- Price (I think it was less than 10 Euros)
- Light coverage, "no makeup" look
- 8 in 1 product is great for travel
- The tube can be a bit messy to dispense from
- Break through shine by end of the day (usually I just blot, or if I'm going out, cleanse and re-apply)
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
Its okay. Actually, its great EXEPT I got the wrong colour. Medium to deep. Shoulda been light to medium. Overall it worked great, felt smooth, just too dark for me. Its not too dark, but s bit tanner than me.
I'm not impressed. In fact, I'm a bit disappointed in the whole product.
It does even out the skin tone a bit, and I enjoy that, and I love that it has SPF 30, but I do not recommend this for grand makeup looks or people who live by their foundation. For a simple every day, or going to an outdoor concert or festival, I think it'd be perfect. That SPF is a huge thumbs up from me, but the lack of pigmentation, and "blurring imperfections" as the product says it does, really disappointed me. I don't usually wear a lot of makeup, I like a natural look and feel on my face, but this was so sheer it almost felt unnecessary to have on. Rather than using a translucent powder to set it, I ended up still using my foundation powder to get some color onto my face and cover my pimples. If I have to use a foundation powder with the cream that supposed to do what the foundation does (and more!), what's the point, right?
In the Fall, I attend lots of concerts, events, and festivals; pumpkin picking, and harvests and whatnot, so I'll wear it to several of those because of the SPF properties and I don't really have to look all fancy-fancy, but I do not recommend this people who are looking for a notable change in their complexion. It's not a good foundation replacement, it's not even really a BB "cream." It's barely like a tinted moisturizer. It's more like a lightly tinted SPF lotion..
I bought this before the hype and enjoyed applying the smooth gel-like formual and have smooth skin allllll day... until I got home and looked in the mirror (T^T) I looked like someone had slapped me in the face with tanning cream. It oxidized so badly! I dunno if it cause of the Aussie weather, but I was so disappointed (T^T)
I've used so many different BB creams and this is by far the best I've bought for me. I apply a primer before hand, and then I apply this with a brush, and then I use a little bit of foundation and my skin is pretty much flawless and it lasts right until I take it off! And, my skin is far from perfect, it has many flaws! This BB Cream is easy to apply, easy to blend, and a little goes a long way. It evens out my skin tone, hydrates the dry areas on my face, covers redness, covers dark circles... I just love it. I've used so many BB creams and thought they were a silly gimmick until I used this one. Would highly recommend, and would highly recommend applying with a brush rather then fingers! :)
Well, first of all, when BB Creams came out, i was pretty excited to try it.. But then.. *BAM! This is so horrible!! It makes my skin look oily and it doesnt blur my imperfections at all. Worst ever :(
More reviews by chubbymuffins835
I bought this because of all the hype it was getting but i honestly dont think its worth the hype unless you have clear smooth skin. I have problems with minor acne and this claims to "blur imperfections" and it did blur them... but only for 10 minutes then i noticed my skin became oily. this is very sheer and i don't like the way it feels.. its very runny. i will finish this product because its not terrible i just don't think this does anything for my skin
I really enjoy this product and have come to the realization that it definitely needs to be set with a shine control powder to reach it's full potential. I enjoy the texture of the liquid as it is very light and blends in easily. I didn't realize how shiny my face gets with it on until seeing pictures that were taken recently while wearing it. I am going to pair it up with maybelline dream matte powder tomorrow.

The Doctrine of 'Justification' in Paul, in Historical Perspective and in The English Bible God's Gift of Right Relationship DescriptionPart One demonstrates, from the evidence of Paul's writings themselves, using the Greek text, that the relational model is the model from which the apostle works. Part Two examines the various ways in which Paul's doctrine has been understood from the beginning to the present, and evaluates the various views in the light of the Pauline evidence. Part Three is the first detailed examination of how Paul's doctrine of 'Justification' has been represented in English versions of the New Testament, tracing how Paul's key family of words has been translated from the 14th century to the present. It documents how the use of two English word-families for Paul's single Greek word-family has dominated English translation of the key texts, but also draws attention to those versions which have been successful in utilizing a single English word-family. Finally, it argues that it is essential for such an approach to be adopted for mainstream translations of the future if they are to succeed in conveying

When I'm opening a new bag of grain, I can usually pick at one end of the stitching and the whole seam will unzip. I just spent 15 minutes trying to open a bag of Maris Otter. I finally got a knife and sawed through all the stitches. Do the British use a different stitch, or is there some other trick to it? What am I missing here?
Oh goodness, I have the same problem with bags of seed at work. Sometimes it comes easily, sometimes it takes FOREVER. It's the worst with tiny bags. I'm interested to find out who has the secret!
Marbles baby, marbles.
You have already figured out the secret, the box cutter.
I think the stitch is designed to unzip. I just don't have the magic decoder ring.
Maybe it's trying to tell you to buy American grain! I have those issues with inscrutable Thai Jasmine rice bags. There was an episode of Dirty Jobs where he was instructed on how to open the bags of Soy Beans. They don't show it close up enough for me to truly see the trick.
scissors! Radical!
I am assuming it is the same thing as dog food bags or the bags corn/feed come in at work. I have never figured it out, but my dad can always get them to unzip immediately
There is a guy who works with me who can do it with some regularity, I'll try and film him doing it, even though I don't think he knows what he's doing.

A must-do on your itinerary, a boat trip is an easy way to take in the sights along the famous Singapore River.
The Singapore River, which cuts through the heart of the city, was for many decades the main artery of trade and commerce for the British long time ago. Today, the stately Victorian and neo-classical Roman structures still stand proudly along the river banks, but they jostle for space with the many concrete-and-glass skyscrapers that have shot up in more recent times.
The best way to view many of the buildings, statues, monuments and museums that Singapore has inherited from its colonial past is to take a river-boat tour that starts at Clarke Quay and goes up the river to meet the Merlion at the mouth. You will be brought along the Singapore River on an old bum-boat, the kind that used to navigate up and down the river in colonial times.
Where: Board at Clarke Quay where ticket kiosk is located. How to get here: Clarke Quay MRT station Opening Hours: 9am till 10.30pm Admission Fee: Adult-S$22 for 60mins ride or S$18 for 40 mins ride Child-S$12 for 60mins ride or S$10 for 40 mins ride Official site: www.rivercruise.com.sg
38/40 Joo Chiat Place, S(427762) Open: 11am – 3pm, 6pm – 9.30pm daily When a food establishment takes on a logo of the national icon, Merlion, you are guaranteed of rich history and secret recipes handed down the generations. True enough, this restaurant has been serving Peranakan dishes since 1953. Another good sign before we entered […]

Important Information >>
I saw this featherboard idea on a routing tool called the WoodRat. I liked it so much I adapted it to my router table. The WoodRat uses a single wooden scrub brush glued to a board. I wasn't able to find wooden scrub brushes so I bought a pair of plastic ones. I simply screwed them to a mounting board, one for infeed and one for outfeed. They do a great job of holding the workpiece snug against the fence during routing.
I often work with small parts so a toothbrush will soon be tried out. Thanks

The Appeal for Sustainable Dining
Dear Dining Contract Negotiation Board, The choice of a dining service provider reflects Carleton and its values. We, as members of the Carleton community, feel that THE PROCESS OF SELECTING A DINING SERVICE PROVIDER FOR THE FUTURE SHOULD REFLECT CARLETON
Sustainable food tastes better.
By the end of January the Carleton administration will make a decision about our future dining service provider. The administration is clearly determined to make a wise and informed choice, taking into serious consideration the costs and benefits of each of the two dining service proposals.
The Appeal for Sustainable Dining was written to formally articulate an opinion shared by the entire Carleton community: when it comes to food, sustainability and social responsibility matter most.
The Appeal is not a list of demands, per se; compromises will of course be made in the effort to achieve the best quality food as well as the best economic value, but it is important to let the decision makers know the kinds of values we would like to see reflected in our dining service provider.
Naturally, it shouldn\'t be a surprise to the administration that students at Carleton are concerned about sustainability and social responsibility, but by formally adding your name to the Appeal, and as the list of names grows, it will add a concrete emphasis to the importance of sustainability.

A 30-year-old high school teacher was arrested on March 26 after the 14-year-old girl with whom he allegedly arranged to meet for a sexual encounter turned out to be an undercover New York City police officer.
Monsur Khan of 108th Street in Forest Hills is a teacher at the city's Hillside Arts & Letters Academy in Jamaica.
A statement issued by the office of Queens District Attorney Richard Brown said Khan was charged last Thursday with second-degree attempted rape, second-degree attempted criminal sexual act, first-degree attempted dissemination of indecent material to minors, attempted endangering the welfare of a child and resisting arrest.
He faces up to four years in prison if convicted on all charges.
"This case should once again serve as a reminder that sexual predators are cruising the Internet in search of vulnerable victims," Brown said. "Despite numerous publicized arrests for exactly this type of alleged behavior, sexual predators continue to be relentless in searching for victims on the internet."
Brown gave his often-repeated call for parents to monitor their children's online activities in order to assure that they are not placing themselves in danger.
Brown and the NYPD allege that Khan repeatedly was in contact online with an undercover vice squad detective who posed as the 14-year-old girl between Feb. 12 and March 25.
The detective allegedly received numerous instant messages from Khan, which Brown's office said were sexually graphic in nature "and included an invitation to meet for sexual activity in Queens."
Authorities allege that Khan arrived Wednesday at a prearranged location in the 109th Precinct. He then allegedly told a female undercover officer who showed up that they could go to his car.
He allegedly resisted attempts by police to handcuff him as officers moved to arrest him.

George Canyon won't seek Conservative nominationPolitics: Health scare forces foothills singer to reconsider prioritiesBy: Don Patterson | Posted: Wednesday, Apr 16, 2014 06:00 am A Foothills country music singer announced last week he will not be getting into politics due to health reasons. George Canyon, who lives on a High River-area ranch, will not be seeking the Conservative Party�s nomination to run in the new Bow River Riding, because of an unspecified �health scare.� �I have realized that I�d rather serve my fans and fellow Canadians through my music,� he said. �A health scare has the serendipitous ability to remind all of us that life is precious and finite.� In January, Canyon announced his intention to seek the nomination to run as the Conservative candidate in the Bow River riding, which will be created before the 2015 federal election. He assured his fans and supporters that he is okay, despite his health scare. Canyon said it forced him to take another look at his priorities and he wants to focus on his family and his fan, who he called his �family away from home.� Canyon lives in the current Macleod riding and considered seeking the nomination to become the Conservative candidate in the upcoming Macleod by-election, but instead to throw his support behind John Barlow, who went on to become the Conservative candidate in Macleod. The two planned to co-ordinate their campaigns for office. Barlow said he was looking forward to working with Canyon and believes they would have made a good team. However, he said he understands that Canyon has to focus on other priorities right now. �His family comes first and I totally respect that,� he said. Barlow said Canyon would�ve made a great Member of Parliament. He hopes Canyon considers making another run again in the future. �I still think he�ll be a great representative at some time if he ever decides to do this,� he said. Comments

A Non-Traditional Telling of a Classic Story
August 28, 2012
The story of a young boy raised by wolves in the jungle of India and befriended by a bear and panther comes to life on the stage at Pritchett Auditorium as the Averett theatre department performs "Jungalbook" at 7:30 p.m. Sept. 13-14 and at 2:30 p.m. Sept. 15. "Jungalbook" is this year's Theatre for Young People Show and is recommended for ages six and up. While this is not the Disney version, this adaptation of Rudyard Kipling's "The Jungle Books" embodies the spirits of loyalty, adventure and betrayal found in the original stories. Written by Edward Mast, "Jungalbook" is set in the jungle of India and tells the classic story of Mowgli, the human child who is raised by wolves. Like in the Disney version, Mowgli is befriended by a bear named Baloo and Bagheera, the panther. As the story unfolds, Mowgli learns he is not a wolf, but in fact a human who must defend against Sherakhan, the tiger who killed his parents. The two finally meet face-to-face and Mowgli uses rope he stole from a nearby village to defend himself, which is against jungle law. He is forced to choose between defying jungle law and facing the consequences or leaving the jungle forever. "Jungalbook" won a Distinguished Play Award from the American Alliance for Theatre and Education in 1991. Tickets for the production are $9 for adults and $7 for students/senior citizens. They may be purchased at the door on the night of the performance or in advance by calling 434-791-5712.
