The talent hunt begins…
Dubai firms are recruiting again, but they face a shortage of skilled expat workers.
February 22, 2010 1:42 by Aarti Nagraj
Even though Dubai is still struggling to settle its debt issues, there are a few indications that the city is slowly emerging out of the financial crisis. And as the revival begins, things are starting to look up in the UAE's employment market.
Earlier this month, a global survey by international recruitment firm Antal found that 51 percent of the organizations in the UAE are currently hiring, and 62 percent are planning to hire managerial staff over the next three months.
"Despite the highly-publicized economic pains of Dubai, the region as a whole seems to be holding up well with hiring levels rising," Nizar Lalani, CEO and country manager of Antal's Gulf office said in a release.
A recent survey by local jobs website Bayt.com and YouGov Siraj also found that companies are now more likely to be actively recruiting staff, compared with last quarter of 2009. In the UAE, 24 percent of the respondents said that their organizations would definitely be hiring over the next three months, and another 26 percent said they would probably be hiring – a slight pickup in confidence on the previous survey in November last year, when 48 percent said they would definitely or probably be hiring.
"During the recession, a number of the region's professionals lost their jobs as organizations cut their human resources budgets in a bid to save money and ride out the recession," Rabea Ataya, CEO of Bayt.com said in a release. "Now, as the region recovers from the recession, one of the first things that companies look at sourcing is the right talent to fit their new business needs."

Notice this paragraph…..?
"According to reports, nearly 30 percent of Indian workers in the Gulf work here as doctors, advertising executives and engineers. And many of them, who were made redundant during the crisis, have already relocated back to their homes. Also, many of the younger educated Indians, who earlier used to eye lucrative employment in Gulf, are now finding better opportunities in India, as the country's economy is booming."Do the ill-informed or propaganda/racially motivated or whatever people who believe that Indians out here are merely low-paid unskilled laborers out to cause more harm to the economy FINALLY GET IT now? If not they NEVER will.

Hi everyone -- we're aware of these problems and are trying different fixes (thus undoubtedly the weirdnesses you've encountered) but have concluded we need to upgrade to the latest version of the forums software. That should be accomplished shortly and hopefully then the forums will function more smoothly.

Professional Wine Reviews for Chateau Faugeres St. Emilion Grand Cru 2006Additional information » |
Bordeaux red wines are widely regarded as being the finest red wines produced anywhere in the world, regularly topping awards lists and generally being amongst the most sought after and collectable bottles available. The secret to their success and their particularly memorable and refined characteristics is the fact that Bordeaux red wines are made from a blend of grape varietals, most commonly from Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot grapes, helped by a touch of Petit Verdot or Cabernet Franc. The other two key Bordeaux grape varietals which are also used in the blend of many of these excellent wines are Malbec and Carménere, although it is becoming less common to see these in use today. The art of blending primarily Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot grape varietals is something which has been much imitated around the world, as it produces a wonderfully balanced, rounded yet massively complex and flavorful wine, ideal for oak aging The acid and tannin levels in each of these grape varietals is balanced and tempered by the blend, and generations of expertise has gone into the careful selection and cultivation of such quality grapes.
There are few wine regions in the world with a reputation as glowing and well established as that of the Bordeaux, in France. Situated mainly around the Dordogne and Gironde rivers, Bordeaux makes the most of its humid climate and rich, clay and gravel based soils to grow some of the finest examples of red and white grape varietals on earth. Wineries in this region have been in operation for hundreds of years, and have carefully developed the expertise required for the production of carefully balanced and utterly delicious blended red and white wines, alongside some exceptional single variety bottles. Many of the chateaux found in Bordeaux have become household names, due to their prestige and the excellence of their products, grown with love and dedication by heritage wineries in this beautiful and special region.
It is widely understood and accepted that the finest wines in the world come out of France. Whether you are drinking a vintage bottle from one of the famed Grand Cru wineries of Bordeaux - such as Chateau Margaux or Chateau Lafite-Rothschild - or a more simple and affordable bottle from one of the lesser known appellations in Burgundy, the likelihood is that the wine is packed full of intense and interesting flavors, and has a fine, balanced structure typical of almost all French produce. This reputation for excellence is taken extremely serious by the French, with dozens of regularly updated laws and regulations ensuring the quality and accurate labeling of wines. Such dedication and passion for fine wine, representative of the region in which it is produced, means customers can be assured that when they buy a bottle from France, they are buying something almost certain to please and delight.
Saint Emilion is a very special sub-region found in France's Bordeaux, and is situated on the highly esteemed and world renowned right bank of the Gironde river. Here, the mineral rich gravel and clay based soils provide plenty of nutrition and character to the grape varietals which are grown, and the warm and sunny climate helps them ripen each year to their fullest. The majority of the chateaus in Saint Emilion produce blended red wines, using a carefully balanced blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Merlot grapes. The result is something truly wonderful finely crafted red wines which express all of the finest points of each varietal, and holding plenty of fascinating and complex character, flavors and aromas which have helped make this sub-region one of the best in the world.

Google develops tool to help websites visualize their users
Google Analytics now detects the browser size of website visitors, a new metric that has gained relevance as the variety of internet-connected devices has increased in recent years, the company said yesterday.
Understanding what content and website features remain hidden from users with smaller browser windows is important for publishers, so that they can make adjustments accordingly, Google said.
"For many people, the visible portion of the web page is much smaller than the screen resolution, because of excessive toolbars and other clutter," wrote Gaal Yahas, from the Google Analytics team.
As part of this new functionality, Google Analytics also offers its users a visualisation tool that shows them which parts of their web pages remain unseen for website visitors with different browser sizes. For example, it's critical in situations where important web page elements, like e-commerce buttons, fall outside of the default browser view.
"Analysing the percentage of visitors for whom page elements fall beneath the fold or off to one side is difficult, so we've created a visualisation that lets you quickly determine which portions of your page are visible to which percentages of visitors," Yahas wrote.

A report by Yesmail surveyed 700 marketers at two large conferences last October, and the resulting analysis found marketers are pretty much in the same boat as everyone else on big data. They have lots of information, but don't quite know how to make it sing.
Got Data? Now What?
Things like integrating real-time data and performing maintenance on usable data are important for marketers to improve on overall as the study found 26% of respondents said they couldn't remember when they last did quality control.
Sixty eight percent of those surveyed at last fall's DMA2012 in Las Vegas and the Forrester Research conference in Chicago said they were planning to increase their data related spending in 2013. Twenty percent said they would increase this spending greatly, and the remaining 48% said they would increase it only slightly.
However, nearly half of those surveyed will commit exactly zero new hires to these processes. That means marketers are pretty scattered in their approaches as to how to better integrate big data. Companies are still kind of all over the map in terms of where they are on the adoption scale, but one trait they often share is they are collecting way too much outdated or duplicate data.
Collection, Analysis + Application
Marketers depend mostly on website analytics for their data collection, but about 20% of it still comes from emails. These numbers contain information only from the Forrester conference, so while they may not be as comprehensive, it does show a likely across the board trend.
Additionally, of the companies who do plan to hire more people to help with big data, 20% said they would do so in the analytics area.
Applying real-time info is a powerful way to use big data.
One of the best ways to make use of big data is to help personalize messages. It's a basic tactic that 40% of those surveyed said they only use rarely or never. This includes the use of social media. Despite how powerful and far reaching it has become, nearly a quarter of those surveyed at the Forrester conference said they either didn't plan to or didn't know how to integrate social data into their marketing.
2013 will be a year of experimentation for marketers, and as industries become more adept at using mobile and social, the most agile should begin to see real ROI. Now that we know how many will be ramping up their spending on data, this will be a fun year to follow the segment's ups and downs.

Apple Picking in Indiana!
4October 23, 2011 by Katie
Yesterday I finally got to do what I've been dying to do all Fall: Apple Picking! Apples are one of my favorite fall foods, and I love going out into the country, so this was a win-win situation for me! I headed out there with my cousin Allie, my sister-in-law Lauren, and her friend Sarah.
Allie found the Country Line Orchard in Hobart, IN after a little research. She like the farm because they don't use regular pesticides. I liked it because the website made them look like quite a big business! They had the orchard, a pumpkin patch, bee hives, a Kids Farm, a Moo-Choo train (we were too big… ), corn mazes, and a ton of other products for sale in their big barn!
You might be wondering why in the world we went all the way to Indiana for an apple orchard, but it was actually only 1 hour away! Chicago is very close to the IN border, as well as pretty close to Wisconsin as well!
When we first arrived, we went to pay our general admission for apple picking (set me back a whole $1, haha), grabbed our apple picking bags, and hopped on a tractor! Since the orchard is so large and they don't want every picking right next to the barn, they have tractors which take you out into the fields. We actually had to transfer tractors at the pumpkin patch – I felt like I was traveling the bus in Chicago! Although much prettier…
The orchard was gorgeous, and the weather was perfect! Once we got off the tractor, we tromped through the fields and just started picking at random! We were wondering why there weren't any signs, but after a while we realized the tractor dropped us off in the middle, and the signs for what kinds of apples were there was at the end of the row… Oh well, apples are apples!
Allie and I got a little carried away in our apple picking… I think we enjoyed the process so much that we had to start limiting ourselves! I came away with about 10 apples… for one person. As did she. We'll see what I do with all of these.
I also asked if anyone minded me taking a few random shots of them for the blog… Allie promptly went into an "apple picking pose" for the camera. Thanks for the candids, Allie.
After we'd covered most of the area, we hopped back on a tractor and headed to the big barn to pay for our catch. Mine was a little over $8 for all the apples! Pretty good deal.
Then we wandered around looking at all of the stuff they had for sale. It was a little overwhelming! However, I knew exactly what I wanted: A caramel apple! I promised myself I'd get one for my birthday (next week!) so I thought this was the perfect place! I got one covered in crumbled Heath bar!
Right before we left, I also got a cup of hot apple cider for the drive home. It was the perfect end to a fun day!
What is one of your favorite fall activities? Have you ever been apple picking? What kind of caramel apple is your favorite?

just discovered your blog recently:) I went apple picking yesterday, and have so many apples also! I almost got myself a caramel apple, but I didn't and now I'm regretting it!
That looks like so much fun! What a good find! I have never been apple picking before, but would love to some time.

DC Azusa Jacket - Men's
Love this jacket!
Got this jacket just before some crappy weather in Oz last week. Rained all weekend on the slopes, but the Azusa held up. DWR worked like a charm, water just beaded. Good pockets (although a little small for the hands), hood fits a helmet nicely, head gater and mitts are great when the cold weather really blows in (yes, it does snow in Australia!). Looks good too, the fluoro makes it easy for my mates to find me in a blizzard. Sweet as!!

RaboDirect PRO12: Leaders Leinster beat Ulster 22-20 at Ravenhill
Related links

Table-toppers Leinster were made to fight tooth and nail in a 22-20 win over Ulster, which puts them on the verge of securing a home semi-final in the RaboDirect Pro12.
Despite the defeat, Ulster's losing bonus point brings them a guaranteed place in the play-offs which could see the sides clash again.
The hosts were forced to play most of the game with 14 men after losing Tom Court to a red card early in the first half.
Leinster, though, were down to 13 men at one point in the first half after Rob Kearney and Rhys Ruddock were shown yellow.
Shane Jennings scored Leinster's only try of the night in the second half while Ian Madigan kicked four penalties and a conversion - though he missed three kicks at goal - while replacement Jimmy Gopperth nailed a penalty.
Man of the match Paddy Jackson scored all Ulster's points with five penalties and a try on the night the new Ravenhill was officially opened - an emotional occasion as skipper Johann Muller and Court played their last games at the ground.
Madigan opened the evening's scoring with a fifth minute penalty after Ulster's scrum was demolished on their own put-in and the Leinster out-half then added a second after 11 minutes when Nick Williams was pinged in a tackle.
Following Court's red card and with their backs to the wall, it was Ulster who scored next after Jackson charged down a Madigan chip to score in the corner, with Leinster then being reduced to 14 after Rob Kearney's high tackle on the Ulster out-half as he crossed the line.
Jackson failed to land the difficult conversion from his 23rd minute score, but Ulster, against the odds, were right back in the game and their cause was further helped when Ruddock was shown yellow three minutes later after Jackson was taken out in the air.
Now down to 13 men, Leinster found themselves on the back foot and, though they survived an attacking five-metre scrum from Ulster, they were pinged just after the half hour at the breakdown and Jackson kicked the home side into the lead at 8-6.
Their lead did not last though as Madigan kicked Leinster back into a single point advantage with his 35th minute penalty just as Rob Kearney arrived back to bring the visitors back to 14 men on the park.
Even though Leinster were back to full strength at the end of the half, Ulster still held out and the half ended with the visitors leading 9-8.
Scoring opportunity
Leinster had the first scoring opportunity of the second half but Madigan put another long range effort wide after 44 minutes and then he was wide again two minutes later with a much more straightforward effort.
Ulster again conceded a kickable penalty but this time Madigan went for the corner and the net result was more heroic defending from the hosts as Dave Kearney was tackled into touch when a try looked certain.
Still, the visitors did manage to score when Madigan landed his fourth penalty on 52 minutes to take their lead to 12-8. The home side though then came back once more with Jackson's second penalty narrowing Leinster's lead to a single point again after 56 minutes.
But after Tommy Bowe knocked on the restart, Leinster attacked down the right channel and O'Driscoll drew two defenders to off-load inside to Shane Jennings who scored at the posts, allowing Madigan to convert and put the visitors 19-11 in front.
Typically, though, Ulster responded and, after replacement Darren Cave's clean break, they won a penalty near the sticks and Jackson slotted the kick to take his side back within bonus point territory.
It didn't last though and, after conceding another scrum penalty, Leinster replacement Jimmy Gopperth nailed his first penalty to put his side 22-14 ahead with 11 minutes remaining.
The see-saw nature of the scoring continued and after Leo Cullen was penalised, Jackson closed the gap to five points which then became two with his fifth successful penalty which followed in the 77th minute.

The big difference though between this and a novel is that in a novel, the main character belongs to the author, while in an RPG, he belongs to the player.
Story mission...you tell a story ... the outcome is set..the player will rarely need to respawn,
combat has a reason, it is not for combat sake.
This is the case is in pretty much any non-randomly generated mission in STO. A story gets told. The outcome is set. Combat is there for a reason (typically mobs guarding the area). Yeah, most have quite a bit of combat, but that's because combat has a good ratio of playtime versus developer time. Yet they do it without taking control of the player's character.
And for some of these missions, a primary thing players would like to see? The option to say or do a few different things. For their captain to do what their captain would do, in other words. Many would like to punch Drake, for example, because that's what their captain would do. Or, as another example, I dislike having to be all federation to get info from the Breen captive. It just felt wrong for my KDF captain to have to behave in that manner to complete the mission.
A good gamemaster will typically plan for a couple of different ways to get the info. The story will still get from A to B, but the players are given some illusion of choice, and their actions will determine how they get there and, since it is the route they choose, it'll increase their enjoyment of it. It'll increase replay value, as players will be interested in how it'll differ for their super nice captain as opposed to their tough guy one.
It is, however, more work, since you are doing more work for a certain amount of playtime. Not to mention trying to put yourself into different mindsets.
So in short
We need captian pop up conversations.......for storytellers
other types prob could live without it.
You only need it for a subset of storytellers. Fan fic writers, basically. The GM type will avoid infringing on the characters.
But, on the bright side, for what you want, it might be possible with the cutscene stuff, whenever that eventually gets in. Why write fanfic when you can make a fanfilm instead?
If they do make such pure story, little player involvement stories possible, I do hope that authors clearly label their missions as such, to indicate that it is them telling a story, not a mission for the player to play.

Just started playing after they started doing their endurance run videos.
I named my character Kintaro Oe, the name of the main character in Golden Boy.
Just curious what names the rest of you picked.
What's your character's name?
"They ask for a first and last name...that's what I gave them. "That" = my real name."GHT said:
"I put in my real name.I can't do that. It just doesn't feel right to me, seeing characters refer to me by my actual name.
the game is more personal that way."
So I use Souji Seta, the name used in the manga.
"Persona 3: Cocks Erection!That's pretty classy.
Persona 4: Peepee Mcgee
I love it in 3 because it says 'Cocks Erection has surged with power!'"
Souji Seta.
Yeah, I'm a complete wuss who goes by the manga name. Surprisingly, I don't do the same for Zelda or FFX.
Xavier British, because I am an overflowing well of creativity.
I just bought the game today. I named my character Takashi Matsumo. I was gonna name him Takashi Matsumoto, but I didn't have enough space for his last name.
It's just too weird to use my real name in games. In this case it wouldn't fit the game. Plus I would feel odd if I made a choice or did something in the game that I'd never do in real life.
Frank Lee.
1. Because Bruce Lee.
2. Because frankly, it's a word.
Shoji Meguro.
What? He's the reason the Persona games(and Digital Devil Saga games and Nocturne and...) have awesome music. >> I regret putting him through music club in my first playthrough, though. Music girl is so...not supposed to be a high schooler/love interest.
I would use my real name in RPG's but it usually doesn't fit within the Japanese settings, so I go with Ichigami Hotori...yeah, two first names :P
although I'm thinking about switching things up in the future by naming my characters either Alize(female) or Kaemon(male) with the last name of Outacite since it would come out to mean "joyful man-killer"

Ascension: Chronicle Of The Godslayer review
As recently evidenced, some people just can't deal with deck-building card games – or their players. But Ascension: Chronicle Of The Godslayer may be just what they need: an easy-to-learn and self-contained original designed by former Magic pros. The only thing going against it is the title, which looks awfully like Gameloft's take on El Shaddai.
Two to four players face off over a central row of six cards and, beginning with a deck composed from the most basic types, take turns to collect better cards and strengthen their subsequent hands. The object is to destroy enemy cards and win Honor Tokens. Singleplayer serves to introduce the basics well enough, but in multiplayer Ascension goes far beyond these: the games can be quick and brutal slugfests, or tense and drawn-out economic battles in which one devastating blow could end them. The simple win condition gives focus to early scramblings, but soon the real tactics emerge – juggling resources, playing cards in the right order, and of course remembering what cards you've played already.
The one problem for iPhone players is that the design is heavily geared towards iPad users – the entire board is on-screen at all times, so on smaller devices reading the cards entails a lot of zooming in and out. The size definitely makes things awkward, and Ascension isn't exactly an aesthetic triumph, either, though this judgement will largely come down to your taste or otherwise in beardy fantasy archetypes.
When the cards become familiar enough to make zooming a thing of the past, Ascension flowers thanks to its speedy and unfussy online integration. A simple game to learn, it's one that builds into rich and complex battles, big and small. It probably won't impress the airhead in your life, unfortunately – but that's what iPint's for.

Archos to launch the Elements 80 Cobalt tablet
The French manufacturer Archos has added a new tablet, called 80 Cobalt, to its Elements Series of portable devices. Apparently, the slate PC is based on an Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich operating system, which is a bit obsolete given that there's Jelly Bean and that the upcoming Nexus 10 runs on an even newer Android 4.2 OS. The Igny-headquartered company has yet to disclose pricing details or an official release date.
According to Archos, users will be provided with an 8-inch LED-backlit capacitive multitouch-enabled display (4:3 aspect ratio) that has a native resolution of 1024-by-768 pixels. Furthermore, the tablet is powered by an unspecified Dual-Core central processing unit clocked at 1.6GHz and a Quad-Core graphics card.
Beneath the screen, the mobile device offers 1GB of RAM and 8GB of flash memory that is expandable by up to 64GB through the built-in micro SDHC card reader slot. In addition, the Cobalt reportedly measures 11.5mm (0.45-in) at its thickest point, weighs 470g and is equipped with a Wireless LAN module, one USB 2.0 port and two integrated cameras- a 0.3MP front-facing web camera for video conferencing and a 2MP shooter on the back.
Other features supposedly include a G-sensor, built-in mono speaker, 3.5mm audio jack and a Full HD (1080p) video playback capability.

"More smoke than fire"
I would have prefered a more realistic lifestyle. One that mere mortals could hope to escape to.
Most likely not - the dialog was repetitive, the characters predictable. I did like the email exchanges
When Jack was shot
It was not believable to me. A girl who is almost 22 and a virgin is going to consider this contract????
I think I've said all I have to say about this one. Mildly interesting.
"Kept waiting for it to improve"
I honestly don't know - it was incredibly dull. Kept waiting for something to happen
Most likely not
"An amazing part of our history"
Definitely - for anyone who enjoys history or has interest in Texas / Oklahoma it is a MUST read.
When Cynthia Ann died
An American tragedy
I think Quannah would be successful in any era. An amazing man, great war chief, then amazing business man.
"A little too Hollywood"
Depends on the friend. I thought it was too planned
Maybe - depend on the subject matter. Not really drawn to his style
Good pacing
I went to the movie. The scenes of horses dying were upsetting, but it is part of history. I don't see any way to make a tv series. Honestly I was disappointed in the movie too.
Book and movie got a lot of hype and I'm not sure why
"One of my favorite saga's of all time"
Good Evil Humanity
One Second After How mankind would cope with such a world changing event. The battle of decent people to survive the dregs of society
Can't pick just one
Stu, he had such a strong yet understated personality. I think he would be fun to hang out with.
A must read
"Reality tv at it's worst"
Top 5 - I can easily see myself listening to this series again
When Katnis volunteers
I enjoy the tone of her voice
Awesome series - like chips, you can't have just one
"A very scary world"
Watching the characters grow and become more "real". Entering the future seeing how it compares to our present.
Scene in the cave
No I have not
There were many and I don't want to post a spoiler
I enjoyed all the books in this series
"Great story - engaging characters"
Empowering Resourceful Tenacious
Katnis - she was believable. She found a way to achieve her goals that were compatible with her physical attributes and background.
I have not
Highly recommended
"Incredible - Genghis was a superb leader"
He overcame so many obstacles in life to build an incredible empire and he was loyal to those he loved.
Genghis - because he was so tenacious and followed thru even on difficult decisions
I have not, but I would
No need to rename it
Showed me how gifted this man was. So much more than just a barbarian.
"Did not connect with me at all"
No - I love American history and really looked forward to this book. I tried to listen multiple times and just could not connect
I think it was more the story than the narrator
I did not make it very far into the book. Perhaps there was something buried in there that I did not find.
My fault in that I didn't listen to the preview. I think I would have skipped the purchase if I had.

Charities flouting law on minimum wage
Written by Andrew Holt
A number of charities are believed to be flouting the law by not paying the National Minimum Wage (NMW) when staff 'sleep-over', Unite, the largest union in the country, has said.
Unite, which has 60,000 members in the Not for Profit sector, said many members are required to work shifts which incorporate a residential element, often known as 'sleep-ins'.
If, during sleep-in time, a member is working or at the employer's disposal, i.e. available to work should an emergency occur or work has to be carried out, this will constitute working time for the purposes of the Working Time Regulations 1998.
Rachael Maskell, national officer, Not for Profit Sector, said: "Some employers continue to ignore this, despite the case law that clearly sets out the position.
"Members who are working such shifts are entitled to receive the NMW, currently £5.80 an hour - if the employer is not paying the NMW a claim for unlawful deduction of wages can be brought."
She gave an example of a Scottish mental health charity which paid an allowance for sleeping over, but if staff had to wake-up and deal with residents, they were not paid, but offered time off in lieu instead.
"This is clearly unacceptable and flouting the law. We believe that a number of the more than 170,000 UK charities are copying the poor practices of this Glasgow-based mental health charity."
Unite is also concerned about the amount of rest breaks its members are entitled to - a worker has to have 11 consecutive hours rest in every 24 hours.
To alert its members, the union has published a briefing this month on residential work and urged abuses to be reported to Unite's regional officers.

Thursday, 16 Aug 2012 05:16 PM
Facebook Inc. fell to a record low after freeing up an additional 271.1 million shares, boosting by 60 percent the number available to trade and compounding concerns that have depressed the stock since the initial public offering.
Facebook declined 6.3 percent to $19.87 at the close in New York. The shares haven't closed above the $38 IPO price since the first day of trading.
The prospect of more stock sales means Facebook will need to work even harder to convince investors that it deserves a higher price, relative to earnings, than all of its U.S.-based competitors, except for LinkedIn Corp. The shares freed up today make up only 14 percent of the 1.91 billion that will be available for sales in the coming nine months.
"Buckle your seatbelts for the next couple of months until they make it through all these shares coming unlocked," said Tom Forte, an analyst at Telsey Advisory Group in New York.
Early Facebook investors such as DST Global Ltd., Goldman Sachs Group Inc., Elevation Partners and Accel Partners can start selling part of their holdings today, Menlo Park, California-based Facebook has said in filings. That's after the lifting of restrictions, set with underwriters, that are designed to prevent a flood of shares immediately after an IPO.
The shares subject to today's lock-up expiry are worth about $5.39 billion, based on todays's closing price, and represent almost six times the average daily trading volume in Facebook stock. Today's trading volume -- 156.8 million shares -- was the third-highest since the IPO.
Declining Value
The restriction is being lifted for early investors, excluding Facebook Chief Executive Officer Mark Zuckerberg, who sold part of their holdings in the IPO. Ashley Zandy, a spokeswoman for Facebook, declined to comment.
Facebook, worth about $48 billion, has lost more than $40 billion in market value since the IPO, making it the worst performer among all large IPOs on record, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
Additional shares are freed up at various stages in the coming months. The next comes between Oct. 15 and Nov. 13, when restraints are removed on about 243 million shares. Lock-up expires on about 1.2 billion shares on Nov. 14, and on 149.4 million shares a month later. A final round comes May 18, 2013, with 47.3 million shares becoming available.
Still, the decline has been steep enough to make some investors consider holding onto shares instead of selling as quickly as they can, said Mark Harding, an analyst at JMP Securities LLC. Shares have fallen in anticipation of the expiration of the lock-ups, he said.
Microsoft, Thiel
"It certainly wouldn't behoove and wouldn't be in the shareholders' best interest to dump the shares on the market all at once," he said. "I would assume that all of the investors that hold the 270 million-odd shares are probably rational, and probably realize that flooding the market with that kind of supply over such a short amount of time wouldn't help their position."
Microsoft Corp., based in Redmond, Washington, will probably hang onto its stake after the lockup-ban lifts, a person with knowledge of the matter said on Aug. 10.
Microsoft views Facebook as a strategic partner in the combat against Google Inc., rather than as a near-term moneymaker, said the person, who requested anonymity because the plans are private.
Other investors have been preparing for potential sales. Director Peter Thiel, who sold in the IPO, has given himself added flexibility to unload more holdings, according to a regulatory filing. Thiel, one of Facebook's earliest investors, converted more than 9 million shares to Class A from Class B. Class A shares are easier to sell on the public markets.
Growing Optimism
Facebook has grappled with concerns about its valuation after reporting sales growth of 32 percent in the second quarter from the year-ago period, down from 45 percent in the first quarter and 55 percent in the fourth quarter. The second-quarter gain was dwarfed by a surge in spending on marketing and sales, which ballooned to $392 million.
Part of Facebook's challenge is making money from the growing slice of users who access the social network over mobile devices. During the second quarter, the number of ads delivered in the U.S. dropped 2 percent from a year earlier even amid an increase in overall daily users.
Mobile advertising probably contributed just $15 million to second-quarter sales that totaled $1.18 billion, Forte said.
The company has since added a service for software developers, enabling them to entice users to download applications onto mobile devices. The company also said earlier this week that it's testing a service that lets companies put more ads on mobile phones.
"Despite revenue growth that has decelerated, we see largely organic annual growth of" 25 percent or more through 2014, S&P Capital IQ wrote in a research note. "We have grown more optimistic about the company's efforts related to monetization and mobile."

Microsoft demands simultaneous multiplatform releases
Microsoft reserves the right to refuse an Xbox 360 release for games that are released first on other platforms, according to reports.
Eurogamer reveals that Microsoft's developer terms also stipulate that the company may also refuse to allow an Xbox 360 release for games that offer more features or content on other platforms.
Microsoft's content submission and release policy reads: "Titles for Xbox 360 must ship at least simultaneously with other videogame platforms, and must have at least feature and content parity on-disc with other platform versions in all regions where the title is available.
"If these conditions are not met, Microsoft reserves the right to not allow the content to be released on Xbox 360."
The terms apply to Xbox Live Arcade games, too, with Microsoft's online content terms stipulating that games "must simultaneously release on Xbox Live Marketplace in all regions where the game is available." Demos, too, "must ship within the same week of its launch on other videogame platforms or via magazines."
Microsoft's vice president of interactive entertainment, Chris Lewis, defended the policy, saying: "We're a little biased, so obviously we're going to look to protect our own space as best we can and get exclusivity…we seek to maximise our own advantage to ensure the playing field is even, and certainly plays to our advantage wherever possible."
Lewis goes on to sound a familiar refrain by saying that the company's restrictive terms benefit its users. "Honestly – and this is going to sound a bit contrived – we just want what our consumers want from us," he said. "We want to be where they want us to be.
"We want the quality bar of what they experience from us to continue to go up. I think it has to happen; everybody's got to do that. If we want to continue to command healthy average selling prices, which we all do, that which we offer our consumers has got to keep getting better."
One publisher, speaking on condition of anonymity, strongly disagreed. "Microsoft is suggesting that anything but parity will result in them not carrying a title," the source said. "They may think this is competitive, but it's not. They are killing any creative exposure of titles to make up for their own platform's shortcomings."
While it is no secret that Microsoft demands exclusivity for Xbox Live Arcade games included in promotions like Summer Of Arcade, the news that it demands feature and release parity across the board is something of a surprise. The claim that it motivated by the needs of its consumers, too, seems a little odd, as it seems designed not to reward those who own Microsoft platforms so much as punish those that do not.
