Rice scheme reality dawns
- Published: 17 Jan 2013 at 00.00 | Viewed: 3,276 | Comments: 17

The rice-pledging scheme is entering its second year and the government is reportedly seeking a staggering 150 billion baht loan for the cash-strapped Bank of Agriculture and Agricultural Cooperatives (BAAC) so it will be able to carry on wooing farmers' support for another year.
There is no question that farmers who have registered to take part in the scheme have benefited from it.
They could sell their crops to the millers at prices higher than the actual market prices, even though the prices they received, in most cases, were lower than the 15,000 baht/tonne for white rice and 20,000 baht/tonne for Hom Mali grains pledged by the government.

OK once I get my lower done, I have been thinking I will also make an order of 30rnd mags in case we lose the bigger mags after the election. Sooo I was looking at a few places about mags and I was thinking I would get some bushmasters at first then I came across Magpul. Now I have waded through alot of reviews and from whet I can tell they are the best on the market. So I was wondering are they? has anyone had a bad one? and how dose the window work, I am abit leery of any mag you can see into but dose it work well? Thanks!

PMAGS are GTG. Nuff said.
While I don't share Kelly's enthusiasm for the product, I do believe they are making a good piece of kit. That said, I find them a bit expensive for the price they are charging. You do get the advantage of the stainless steel spring, which is definitely a plus. But $15/piece for the non-window models is a bit of a stretch for me, personally. If your cash flow isn't a problem, I believe them to be a good product. For the money, there are other choices out there for a reliable magazine for your AR platform though. JD
Well what would you suggest as a more affordibal one?.... and yeah I was planning on an order of 10 mags....
OK Thanks!
^ Those are the ones - the ones from Bravo Company. I have about 20 of them, all with the green follower and they work great. Good looking out Slo! JD
Brove Company mags, or Brownells are probably the "best" of the metal magazines for sure. The C-Products have been either hit or miss. My respect of the PMAG comes from the fact that metal magazines are either aluminum and the lips are easily bent or that they're steel and heavy, the PMAGs suffer neither of these flaws. Don't even get me started on the H&K paper weights. My only issue with PMAGS is that they sometimes get crowded in shingles that hold 2 mags stacked together.
I have 8 PMAGS and have run plenty of ammo through them. I have never had a problem with them, and I recomend them. That is just my $.02...

Citi Announces U.S. Credit Card Agreement With Best Buy
Citigroup today announced that it will enter into a strategic agreement with Best Buy to issue and manage Best Buy-branded cards in the United States. In addition, Citi also reached an agreement with Capital One Financial Corp. to acquire approximately $7 billion of Best Buy private label and co-branded card loans. Both deals are anticipated to close in the third quarter of 2013 subject to customary conditions. Citi does not currently expect the impact of the transactions to be material to its earnings in 2013.
"This will add another premier retail franchise and high-quality card portfolio to Citi Retail Services and significantly expand our already strong position as a market leader in North America," said Bill Johnson, CEO of Citi Retail Services. "Best Buy is the leader in consumer electronics and we are excited to partner with them. We look forward to leveraging Citi's capabilities and expertise to grow and enhance Best Buy's relationships with their loyal and valued customers."
Citi Retail Services provides consumer and commercial credit card products, services, and retail solutions to national and regional retailers across North America. The business services nearly 90 million accounts for a number of iconic brands, including The Home Depot, Macy's, Sears, Shell, and ExxonMobil.
Citi, the leading global bank, has approximately 200 million customer accounts and does business in more than 160 countries and jurisdictions. Citi provides consumers, corporations, governments and institutions with a broad range of financial products and services, including consumer banking and credit, corporate and investment banking, securities brokerage, transaction services, and wealth management. Certain statements in this release, including the entry of the strategic agreement with Best Buy, the closing of the Best Buy and Capital One Financial transactions and the impact of the transactions on Citi's 2013 earnings, are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. These statements are based on management's current expectations and are subject to uncertainty and changes in circumstances. Actual results and other financial conditions may differ materially from those included in these statements due to a variety of factors, including but not limited to the precautionary statements included in this document, such as completion of the transactions, including satisfaction of applicable closing conditions for the transactions. More information about these factors and other factors that may affect Citi's future results is contained in Citi's filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, including without limitation the "Risk Factors" section of Citi's 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Precautionary statements included in such filings should be read in conjunction with this document.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Historic downtown building has a new tenant
Bolt Fabric and Design, offering an unusual combination of quilting fabric and stylish home accessories, has moved into one of Cloverdale's oldest historic buildings at 219 N. Cloverdale Blvd.
Owner Kate Barrett wanted to combine her love of fabrics and quilting with her retail management skills. After many years of setting up and launching retail stores around the country for her former employer, she says she is excited to finally be setting up and launching her own business in downtown Cloverdale
Her two business partners are Peter Rosson and her brother, David Barrett. Barrett is a realtor and the one who first learned the building was for sale late last year. Rosson is a designer whose keen eye for the offbeat and unique can be seen in the eclectic variety of affordable gift and home décor items.
Their selection includes quilting fabrics, notions and patterns that range from American Made Brand solid cottons to Certified Organic fabrics and thread, with a large offering of batiks, Retro and Civil War. They also carry French Toweling by the yard.
The store's front area evokes an inviting living room feel. Barrett invites crafters to bring a crochet, knitting, needlepoint or hand stitching project and settle into one of the comfortable chairs to work on it.
Seamstresses can even drop in and use one of the three sewing tables with a cutting and ironing station and design wall free of charge.
Without compromising either the architectural and historical integrity of the building, which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, interior walls were removed to open up the space and make it more inviting.
The bathroom walls are adorned with framed copies of vintage patterns and in the middle of the store is a selection of vintage patterns for sale, including Simplicity, McCalls and Butterick.
An official Grand Opening celebration will take place in October. In the meantime, Bolt Fabric and Design is open Thursday to Monday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. For more information, contact them at 894-2658.

Background: Lower lateral crural deformities are common problems in rhinoplasty. The shape and position of the lower lateral crura directly influence the alar contour and external valve function. This study reviews an extensive experience with the lower lateral crural turnover flap, which represents a versatile and reproducible technique for correction of lower lateral crural deformities and improvement of external valve function.
Methods: A retrospective review of our experience with the lateral crural turnover flap in consecutive primary (n = 21), secondary (n = 2), and tertiary (n = 1) open rhinoplasties was conducted to evaluate the indications, contraindications, and long-term outcomes of this technique. Patient case examples are used to illustrate this technique and its results.
Results: The lower lateral crural turnover flap is beneficial for deformities, weakness, and collapse of the lower lateral crura. It can also be used to improve lower lateral crural strength during tip reshaping. It is contraindicated when there is insufficient width of the lower lateral crura. A lower lateral crural turnover flap can complement other external valve and alar arch supporting techniques, such as placement of alar contour grafts and/or alar batten grafts. The shape and position of the lower lateral crural turnover flaps have had long-lasting results (>1 year) after open rhinoplasty.
Conclusions: The lower lateral crural turnover flap is a useful and reproducible technique in rhinoplasty with enduring results. The use of adjacent cartilage provides a local source of viable tissue to correct and support the lower lateral crura in both primary and revision rhinoplasty.

Or will a rifle that cost less do the same thing? Why do so many people love colts? This will be my first ar so please tell me what you think.

I think people are going to tell you get the colt, others will say get a this or that. Bottom line do you need a mil spec rifle? Probably not. If you want it and have the cash get one. Me I bought a used m&p and it shoots fine, over 1000 rounds down range and not a single hiccup.
Im guessing the like the pretty pony.
Lots of other choices out there with those Colt specs. Your money not theirs spend it how u want.
Get the Colt. Better yet, get the LE6940 my stick of choice.Colt LE6940 Review Even better, get the Colt LE901-16S;Colt Catalog - ColtLE90116S If you can afford the Colt, why ask the question?
I bought a Troy on sale and am very happy with it. I had a Rock River Arms that had over 1500 rounds through it and not one problem. I like Colt but feel that there are better deals out there. I personally like the mid length to full rail on my carbines and Colt doesn't offer that.
How about the psa palmetto state armory AR 15s? Everything is mil-spec like colt but its cheaper! I just dont want to waste my money. if i can get a rifle that does the same thing as a colt why pay more?

Ameresco Partners With Northeastern Wisconsin School District To Reduce Energy Consumption And Enhance Student Quality Of Life
Ameresco, Inc., (NYSE:AMRC), a leading energy efficiency and renewable energy company, announced today that it has signed an Energy Savings Performance Contract (ESPC) with Oconto Falls School District in northeastern Wisconsin. The $2.7 million ESPC is expected to save the District over $137,000 in energy and avoided operational costs annually through energy efficiency and infrastructure upgrades at eight facilities.
Located just north of Green Bay, Wisconsin, the District includes six schools and two district facilities. The Oconto Falls schools that will be upgraded include Abrams Elementary School, Oconto Falls Elementary School, Washington Middle School, New Path Charter School, the Falls Alternative Learning Site (FALS), and Oconto Falls High School. Energy and operational upgrades will also be performed at the District Office and the District's bus garage.
"Opportunities to complete facility upgrades have all but disappeared with the recent reduction in state funding. As a result, we invited Ameresco into our facilities to identify savings opportunities when we realized there may be additional opportunities to further improve our operating systems," said David Polashek, Superintendent of Oconto Falls School District. "Ameresco has worked closely with our staff in developing a project that will reduce energy consumption while improving the daily learning environments for students and teachers alike. We were impressed with the creativity used to design this project which used savings from avoided energy and maintenance costs, rather than tap the District's capital fund to implement necessary building improvements. An ESPC project with Ameresco makes this all possible."
The ESPC is expected to help reduce the District's energy use by over 23 percent through the duration of the 20-year contract via upgrades that include lighting controls, water conservation retrofits, buildings envelope enhancements, boiler plant upgrades, and domestic water heater replacement. In addition to the energy savings facility improvement measures, the District will receive future capital avoidance savings for a roof section replacement. Under an ESPC, Ameresco guarantees the energy cost savings for the duration of the contract. A portion of the projected savings are expected to repay the upfront costs allowing Oconto Falls School District to take a practical approach to reduce its energy consumption while working towards achieving sustainability goals.

Why it's time to sell Microsoft
By David Levine
During the month of January, our large cash position in the Aspect Large Cap Value Investment portfolio helped to lessen the blow of a market that in my opinion has started to correct. As I had stated in numerous previous posts, I was having a hard time finding stocks to buy at decent prices, and actually, as of February 4, I still am.
That said, I was able to make two trades in the portfolio which I feel very good about. In my opinion, I do not think that the market has peaked and I believe that we are in the midst of a pullback within a bull market. However, I do not buy for the sake of buying.
With that in mind, I sold Bank of America (BAC), which I feel is fully valued at this time. Maybe some other investor believes that the bank will make a massive comeback, but I believe that the huge run from the bottom of the 2008 recession is due to a turnaround in the assets they hold and a sort of streamlining of their operations.
In other words, for me it was just an asset play and I feel that the assets are fully valued; so I sold. I took the proceeds and eventually bought Ford (F) with the money. While Ford is not dirt cheap, I bought it when they announced its dividend increase.
With a dividend yield now above 3%, and a very compelling product line, in my opinion Ford will continue to benefit from an improving economy. I really like the new F series pickup trucks, and applaud Ford for taking the risk of building the truck with an aluminum body and smaller turbocharged engines. This sort of approach will win the respect of the buying public and automotive journalists.
In other news, I plan to sell Microsoft (MSFT) and hope to do so some time in February. Yet the company's share price has not yet reached a price where I feel that I should sell it.
Microsoft recently announced that Satya Nadella will be the new CEO. Since Mr. Nadella's strength is in cloud computing, Microsoft finally seems to be focusing its huge franchise in the right place.
Still, I am so annoyed with their slow decision making process and incredibly bureaucratic style of management. Microsoft seems unable to come up with anything compelling to run on newer desktop and laptop computers.
It should be noted that I could be wrong on this trade in the short term. But in the long term, in my opinion, I believe that Microsoft's franchise will erode. If I had to guess, at some point Google (GOOG) is going to figure out a way to eat their lunch.
Hopefully, this pullback will create some bargains so that I can deploy some cash, but I am happy to wait until it does.

p53-mediated increase in cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p21(WAF1) protein is thought to be the major mediator of cell cycle arrest after DNA damage. Previously p21 protein levels have been reported to increase or to decrease after UV irradiation. We show that p21 protein is degraded after irradiation of a variety of cell types with low but not high doses of UV. Cell cycle arrest occurs despite p21 degradation via Tyr(15) inhibitory phosphorylation of cdk2 and differs from the classical p21-dependent checkpoint elicited by ionizing radiation. In contrast to the basal turnover of p21, degradation of p21 switches to ubiquitin/Skp2-dependent proteasome pathway following UV irradiation. ATR activation after UV irradiation is essential for signaling p21 degradation. Finally, UV-induced p21 degradation is essential for optimal DNA repair. These results provide novel insight into regulation of p21 protein and its role in the cellular response to DNA damage.

He had it all and Threw it Away
This is a story of a man who fell under the addiction of gambling and threw away his life because of his addiction.
This guy was rather well off and had a family with a big house and four cars. Admittedly he had a little gamble now and then but nothing to serious that would affect his life if he had stopped.
As years went on his addiction grew and grew and he soon began to gamble with thousands of pounds and before he knew it he couldn't stop.
He began to isolate himself from his family to take time to gamble and eventually he found himself in debt with a drinking problem, Then one day everything was taken from him, his house his cars and most importantly his wife had left because of the gambling and he was left homeless with a huge debt on his head, he soon died from an illness in which alcohol could have contributed to his death.

Unbiased Reviews by Real People
When I am sitting in the library at school, and I am trying to concentrate on my studies or on a book, I find it hard to drown out all the fuss of the other students around me. My first thought was to drown them out with my music. This is ok for the morning when not may people are there, but later in the day, my standard apple headphones just wont cut it. That why I went searching for a better headphone that will hold down the outside sounds. In my search I found the Skull Candy G.I. Consumer Headphones. These headphones not only make the music sound good, they will also drown out noises without music playing. These headphones have many good qualities that I would like to tell you about.PERFORMANCEThe Skull Candy G.I. Consumer Headphones play the music very well. You can hear the bass and the treble much better with these headphones then the standard ones that everyone gets.STYLELots of people have the little ear bud headphones that just stick in your ear. I like those for activities like running, and working out, but when you are not doing anything too active I love the style of the Skull Candy G.I. Consumer Headphones.

The National Sleep Foundation's strategic goal is to partner with best-in-class products that offer everyone the opportunity to assemble the very best bedroom possible. Controlling nighttime allergies is a great way to improve your sleep, because the PureCare mattress, box spring and pillow protectors guard against common allergens, dust mites, bed bugs, mold and mildew. Consumers purchasing these products can rest assured that they are doing all they can to promote a healthy and safe sleep environment."
Fabrictech's PureCare products are available at leading mattress retailers and specialty sleep shops nationwide, and the company has embarked on a global expansion program. Last week, Fabrictech announced the signing of an exclusive, multi-year distributorship arrangement with Zucora Inc., to boost its presence in Canada; and last year the company signed a licensing agreement with an Australian firm to bring the PureCare line to Australia and New Zealand.
The PureCare Aromatherapy line features soothing scent sachets, a time-honored solution for restless sleepers. The products are shipped with a sleep-inducing lavender scent; other relaxing fragrances include tangy, sweet Mandarin; mood lifting, sedating Sandalwood; sinus- and congestion-relieving Eucalyptus; and rich, romantic Jasmine. Scents are available for individual purchase and should be replaced every three months. Suggested retail prices for the PureCare Aromatherapy line are $159.99 for the queen total encasement protector; $119.99 for the queen 5-sided protector; $28.99 for the pillow protector; and $6.00 for replacement sachets.

Ashok Kalyanjee, 46, pled guilty to the murder of his two children, Paul aged 6 and Jay
aged 2 in 2009.
Despite pleading guilty to the murders, and the overwhelming evidence that he did in fact
commit these terrible crimes, six weeks later he decided to appeal his conviction.
He then claimed he was the victim of a conspiracy which led to him to wrongfully enter a
guilty plea to the murder of Paul, six, and two-year-old Jay.
On the day the appeal was to be held, suddenly he decided not to appeal.
Now Ashok Kalyanjee has decided that he suffers from an undiagnosed mental disorder.
It seems as if the Scottish Criminal Review Commission agree with him, since they have referred his
case to the court of appeal.
The Scottish Criminal Case Review Commission has stated " The commission has decided to
refer the case to the High Court because the commission believes that there may have been a
miscarriage of justice on the basis that it appears that he may suffer from a mental disorder which
was undiagnosed at the time of his plea and which might have entitled him to plead that his
responsibility was diminished"
If Mr Kalyanjee does indeed suffer from a mental disorder, surely then he should be in a
secure hospital being treated?
The Facts of the Case Are:
He meticulously planned his terrible crimes, bought the petrol, a knife and tricked his two
little boys by saying he wanted to play a game of football with them.
He then took them to the Campsies, and stabbed them through the throat.
Ashok Kalyanjee recorded a sick final message before cutting the throats of his two little
sons and setting them on fire.
Speaking into a tape machine as he sat in his car with the boys, the killer said:
"Today is the last day. These children are mine and they'll go with me." Kalyanjee
added: "Death is near."
He spoke in Punjabi so his innocent victims wouldn't understand him.
After buying the knife, Kalyanjee drove to a layby near Lennoxtown, Dunbartonshire.
He used a dictaphone to record what he thought would be his last words. He
said: "This is a very big story. Its purpose is that I'm speaking in Punjabi because my children are
with me. "If I speak English, they would understand today is the last day.
These children are mine and they go with me."
He added: "This death is near. I have become a gambler, a drunk. Nothing has become of
Kalyanjee then switched to English and told one of the boys: "I would always miss you.
"So we're gonnae have a very good game today, very good fun today baby. "We're
going to live together. Nobody can separate us. "Nobody can separate us now."
The chilling message was played at the High Court
Before the killings, he phoned their mother and told her: "You'll regret what you did to me
in this life."
The week before the murder, he took the children's mother to the same beauty spot because
this was a place special to her childhood. He was determined to obliterate that as well as her
These killings were not carried out in a moment of madness.
This was a cold and calculating plan executed without remorse.
Paul Ross was just six years old and he had to watch his father kill his little brother
Jay-Jay aged just two before the knife was turned on him.
Ashok Kalyanjee is responsible for these murders. Ashok Kalyanjee must be held
accountable for them and serve his sentence.
Lord Brailsford said at sentencing, "This is as grave a crime as can be imagined. I do
not know what caused you to commit it. You were clearly under some form of psychological
stress – but you have been examined by psychiatrists and found sane and fit to plead.
There is no mitigation for crimes of this enormity."
If Ashok Kalyanjee was mentally insane at the time of the murders, then the chances are he
is still mentally insane.
If he wins an appeal and he is not to serve a sentence in prison he should be in a secure
mental hospital. How does someone get cured of being mentally insane? He was seen by many
psychiatrists BEFORE he went to court. They all found him sane and fit to plead.
It would be a miscarriage of justice for these children, their mother Giselle Ross and
the rest of the family if Ashok Kalyanjee was freed from prison before he had served his FULL
sentence. Giselle Ross has no escape from the sentence she has been forced to live under for the
rest of her life. She is suffering undue and terrible torment and pain through no fault of her own.
She suffers every single day in life, and will continue to suffer for the rest of her life because
of the actions of Ashok Kalyanjee.
Lord Brailsford said, "Ashok Kalyanjee – you have pled guilty to the murder on May 3rd
2008 of your two sons, Paul and Jay, then aged 6 and 2 years. It is clear that this crime was
premeditated, planned and organized. You used deceit and lies to persuade both the children's mother
and the children themselves to go out with you that afternoon. You purchased the murder weapon in
advance and also acquired petrol in a can, apparently to incinerate both yourself and the victims,
at the scene of the crime. The victims were defenceless and in your care, no doubt they loved you
and assumed you would care for them as a father should. One of the victims witnessed what happened
to his brother, I cannot imagine the suffering that child must have endured before his own murder."
The Scottish Justice Secretary Kenny MacAskill has put forward the idea of giving
victims of crime a chance to make an oral statement on their experiences to a court in the hope of
giving them a better voice in the criminal justice process. He said, "that it was important
to give people the right and opportunity to be heard as they wish to be."
Giselle Ross is a living victim who deserves justice. If Ashok Kalyanjee was freed then
that would not be justice.
IF he is mentally ill, then he must go to a secure hospital to be treated. The
public have to be protected and justice must be seen to be done. The courts accepted Ashok
Kalyanjee's guilty plea, and looked at all the available evidence. There can only be one outcome in
this case and that is to keep Ashok Kalyanjee in prison, and treat him if he really does suffer from
a mental illnesss.
Please listen to the pleas of the victims mother, who is a victim also, and her family,
friends and supporters.
Please ensure that Ashok Kalyanjee remains in secure custody.

Michael Burns, now a successful banker, played for a Columbine High School playoff team in 1981.
At chilly Sports Authority Field at Mile High late Saturday afternoon, his son, Nick, a senior starting guard for the Rebels, was celebrating a Class 5A state championship in the wake of Columbine's 41-31 victory over Lakewood in the title game.
"My dad has strived to instill some of the Columbine traditions and values in me since I was a little guy," Nick said amid the tumult. "I just can't be more excited to bring one home for him and for our family."
It's also for a community and an alumni base — across generations — that never will forget the horrific events of April 20, 1999, when 12 students and teacher Dave Sanders were murdered on a day that changed U.S. public education forever. Nationally, measures adopted, response plans formulated or changed, vigilance heightened — all came about as reactions to that day at Columbine.
"The tragedy is something that has caused our community to grow so close together," Nick Burns said. "It makes these more special, more so than I can possibly express. Nothing good will ever come from that day, but this community has come back. Things like this can show the world that, you know what, even though the worst things can happen, we're going to move forward. We're going to bounce back, we're going to come together, we love each other. Because we are Columbine."
"We are Columbine": The simple, yet emphatic declaration began as a cheer in a pep assembly during that 1981 season, when current longtime principal Frank DeAngelis was an assistant coach. Ivory Moore, both then and now an assistant coach, started it, and he reprised it again at the school's pep assembly in the gym Friday. His theatrical flourishes had the student body — as has been the case for decades — enthusiastically joining in.
In the wake of the murders, the national attention, and even the school's state football championship in the fall of '99, it became more than a cheer: It became a statement of defiance, of unity, of pride, and remembrance. "When the tragedy happened, it was really a rallying cry for us," DeAngelis recalled in his office Friday afternoon. "The thing that excites me about the football program, or a successful blood drive, is that it brings people together. I look up in the stands and see the excitement, see the community involved. I have received more phone calls from alumni that are getting together for the game (Saturday)."
The phrase was incorporated in a new alma mater, which the student body sang at the pep rally Friday. The final lines:
"We Are Columbine
"We all are Columbine
"Let the world be told
"Blue and silver we uphold
The other phrase is "Never Forgotten," carved into the Columbine memorial in Clement Park, next to the school. There, the 13 victims are remembered and honored, and one of them is Matthew Kechter, a sophomore straight-A student at the time of his death who was expected to start for the Rebels in the next two seasons.
He wore No. 70. No Rebel wore No. 70 on Saturday. He is not forgotten. Nick Burns, in fact, on Friday was named the winner of the Matt Kechter Memorial Award, which goes to an offensive lineman of high scholastic achievement.
"He's a guy we absolutely all try to emulate," Burns said. "It's important to remember what he stood for. This is why we're out here."
As the Rebels were in the process of winning their fifth state title in 13 seasons, Patrick Ireland, a managing director for Northwestern Mutual, watched on television at home in Arvada.
Still known as Columbine's "Boy in the Window" because of his miraculous three-hour crawl across the library floor and out the window after being shot twice in the head and once in the foot, and for his survival and recovery from fearsome wounds, Ireland and his wife, Kacie, have a 19-month-old daughter, Kennedy. Kechter was one of seven murdered in the library; Ireland, then a junior, was one of seven wounded there.
"I can remember back to the first title in '99, and that was just a special and exciting run at that time," Ireland said. "It's good to see that you can still feel involved and still feel part of the community and the team so many years later."

Nvidia Poised for a Strong Earnings Release
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Nvidia (NVDA - Get Report) is expected to give a repeat performance of last year in this year's first-quarter earnings after the market closes on Thursday.
NVDA data by
Nvidia designs, develops and markets 3D graphics processors, graphics processing units and related software.
52-Week Range: $11.15 to $15.22
Price To Book: 1.8
The consensus earnings estimate is currently 10 cents a share, the same as first quarter last year. The lowest analyst estimate this report is 8 cents per share, and the highest is 14 cents. Analyst opinion is mixed. Most of the analysts surveyed don't believe a buy or a sell should be made at this point. As I write this, Nvidia has nine buy recommendations out of 32 analysts covering the company, 21 holds, and two recommend selling. In the last 12 months, the shares have modestly moved higher. NVDA Gross Profit Margin TTM data by YChartsIntel (INTC - Get Report), AMD (AMD - Get Report), and Qualcomm (QCOM - Get Report) are Nvidia's largest competitors in the chip space. Only Nvidia and Intel have managed to expand gross margins in the last four years. After Intel reported earnings, the shares climbed remarkably. I expect the same from Nvidia, regardless of the number the company puts up. An upside earnings surprise will be great, but don't expect it. The smart money will focus on guidance, so pay attention to the forward-looking numbers and the conference call, and don't get overly attached to the earnings per share number.
Intel is expected to release its latest new microarchitecture platform this summer. The question to ask is if the next advancement by Intel will be the key to Intel increasing market share at Nvidia's expense. Phones, tablets and other devices smaller than PCs are increasingly powered by graphics chips. As a result, Nvidia isn't far from reaching the billion-dollar, free-cash-flow club, and I think that's the next stop. I like Qualcomm, and share declines are more of a buying opportunity than a cause for worry. Dollar for dollar, Qualcomm appears more attractive to me than AMD, the shares of which are expensive relative to the company's performance, especially so after the recent bounce off the bottom.

Immunogen's 'Smart Bomb' Cancer Drugs Are Flunking Safety Checks
The list of toxicity problems linked to Immunogen's (IMGN - Get Report) "smart bomb" cancer drugs is growing longer. Investors should be entertaining the possibility Immunogen's entire antibody-drug conjugates (ADC) technology platform might need to be scrapped or at least completely overhauled.
Immunogen shares are down 15% to $14.01 Tuesday after an unacceptable number of infections, some of which cause patients to die, forced the company to shut down a study of IMGN901 in small cell lung cancer patients, Immunogen announced. Independent data monitors also concluded IMGN901 had no chance of benefiting patients in the study.
IMGN901 is ImmunoGen's lead drug candidate so Tuesday's news is particularly troublesome.
In October, Immunogen said some cancer patients treated with SAR566658, an early-stage drug licensed to Sanofi, reported eye toxicity when higher doses of the drug were used.
In August, Immunogen acknowledged that toxicities attributed to two other wholly-owned cancer drugs -- IMGN853 and IMGN529 -- was forcing the company to use lower-than-expected doses in future, planned studies. All of Immunogen's ADC cancer drugs link a monoclonal antibody, which targets a specific protein found on cancer cells, with a toxic payload of chemotherapy. The goal is to deliver the toxic payload inside cancer cells where it can do the most damage but prevent the chemotherapy from harming healthy cells. Seattle Genetics (SGEN - Get Report) used its own ADC technology to develop the lymphoma drug Adcetris. The chemical linker which attaches the toxic chemotherapy payload to the monoclonal antibody is the most crucial part of any ADC drug. If the linker is too tight, the chemotherapy won't release in sufficient quantities inside the tumor to do its job. If the linker is too loose, the chemotherapy might release outside the tumor cell, causing too unacceptable toxicity. ImmunoGen hasn't provided much detail about the safety problems with its ADC drug candidates, but the list of toxicities suggest its linker(s) are too loose. Up until now, a lot of investors have disregarded the risks associated with Immunogen's technology platform because of the approval and early commercial success of the breast cancer drug Kadcyla, which was developed by Roche using its own monoclonal antibody (Herceptin) combined with a linker and chemotherapy payload from Immunogen. What most investors don't realize, however, is that Roche radically re-engineered the Immunogen linker and chemotherapy to make Kadcyla work. This was proprietary work done by Roche that hasn't extended to Immunogen's other ADC drug candidates. Which is why Kadycla was approved and the rest of Immunogen's pipeline is blowing up, or at risk of blowing up, due to safety problems.-- Reported by Adam Feuerstein in Boston.

It would be great for Brunswick County to get this plant. But according to Fox News, Illinois was never seriously considered by Caterpillar due to its union dominated manufacturing base. In fact, Indiana was felt to be more in the running. »
