Beautiful light fixture!
Lauren from Dearborn, MI– Verified Buyer
I bought two of these for either side of a mirror in a powder room. I was worried about them being too small, but they're perfect for our little bathroom! Just make sure that you look at the dimensions prior to purchasing! But, they are truly beautiful and we get so many compliments! Almost gave a 4 instead of a 5 because of the lightbulbs - expensive and not the easiest to find.
cute contemporary bathroom sconces
Saskia from Raleigh, NC– Verified Buyer
The quality is really nice, and they were easy to install. And they look really good in a contemporary bathroom as well as a more ttraditional one. The only thing is that if you out them on max the lights are too bright to look at.
Good product smaller in size than expected

Last week: 18 (-1) Record: 3-5 Robert Griffin had the worst game of his career, going 16 of 34 for 177 yards and a touchdown, last week against the Steelers, but you can't really blame him. For one, he endured 7 drops. Two, Steelers' defensive coordinator Dick LeBeau is a ridiculous 14-1 as Steelers' defensive coordinator against rookies. Even with a banged up defensive squad, he was able to scheme against Griffin and hold him in check. Griffin should bounce back next week, but that 15 point loss was by far their biggest of the season and it just proves how dependant they are on Griffin, still a rookie quarterback, especially with all of their injuries.

For several months now we have seen glimpses of vROps by way of limited blog posts and the HOL demo's so it was great to see it finally released.
So what is it like out of the box?
The first clear change is the move away from 2 VMs in a vAPP and consolidation down to 1 VM which is then easily scalable to more as you require.
The UI has been completely reworked and the install process has also completely changed, so lets take a look.
Deploying from the ovf is very straight forward (you no longer need to worry about IP Pools either!)
Once you have deployed the OVF start up the VM and wait for it to complete its boot process then navigate to the IP you gave vROps to begin the deployment/configuration. As you can/will see below a lot of time has been invested to simplifying the configuration process.
I Opted to do a new a new installation upon which I was then presented with a 5 step process to deploy vROps

Woolwich murder: With universal condemnation comes the need for wise action
The former leader of the Muslim Council of Britain calls for a wise, evidence-based and inclusive strategy to tackle the causes of Islamic terrorism
The horrendous murder of Drummer Lee Rigby, a soldier of the 2nd Battalion the Royal Regiment of Fusiliers, has put Britain's near-three million Muslims in the dock again.
That the murder happened in broad daylight in a peaceful suburban road in Woolwich, south East London, was shocking enough. That the murderers wanted it captured on camera (in a video released on international media) was worse. These men were sick, cowardly and their actions beyond disgraceful. We took some small comfort from the bravery of a mum who confronted the attackers and risked all by asking them to hand over their weapons.
Unfortunately, since Wednesday last week there was a massive spike in Islamophobic abuse. According to the anti-Muslim hate crime project, Tell MAMA, 83 new incidents of threats or violence reported by Muslims to its helpline in the first 24 hours after the murder; in total more than 170 incidents and 9 mosque attacks have been reported since Wednesday.
Ever since the 9/11 atrocities Muslims and their religion are seen through the prism of suspicion, but the Prime Minister's statesman-like comment: "There is nothing in Islam that justifies this truly dreadful act," gave a clear message to the British public not to point fingers to any one community or religion. London Mayor Boris Johnson spoke in the same language and Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg held a meeting with community leaders to find better ways of working together.
British Muslims, haunted by the spectre of the 2005 7/7 London bombings, unequivocally condemned the gruesome murder. Hundreds of prominent imams came up with an unambiguous public condemnation and Britain's largest Muslim umbrella body, the Muslim Council of Britain, issued a statement describing the killing as "a truly barbaric act that has no basis in Islam and we condemn this unreservedly".
What motivated the killers to carry out this shocking act? Were they deranged, online fantasists, hyper-radicalised, over-politicised; or were they inspired by the 'evil ideology of 'Islamism', as some vocal Islamophobes want us to believe? This needs deeper research and proper remedy. It is now clear that they were within the MI5 radar and were known to be radicalised by now-banned Al-Muhajiroun group run by Anjem Choudary, and created by Omar Bakri Mohammed; one of the killers was even offered a job by MI5! Worries will be expressed about MI5's role in dealing with Muslim extremists and also how these extremists slipped through their net.
The Government is now setting up a taskforce to 'look again' at its strategy for dealing with extremism and radicalisation in the wake of this murder. In doing so, we hope wisdom prevails and a balancing act between freedom of expression and our security is preserved. We need evidence-based strategies to ensure such violence does not occur again. We must be vigilant to ensure we do not inadvertently fall into the trap of violent extremists, making our society less free, divided and suspicious of each other.
As citizens, we need tough conversation within our communities – and beyond – about the causes of extremism and the role of religious and educational institutions, as well as prisons, online and social media. Our actions thereon have to be knowledge-based and nuanced and with better understanding of our diverse cultural or religious expressions. A muddled, lazy and pre-conceived discussion about what constitutes 'extremism' versus, say, social conservatism, political disagreement or peaceful protests, will not assist in our end goal of preventing future attacks. The language, terminology and jargon have to be well-defined so that extremists from any quarter do not feel inflated with their criminal acts and ordinary people are not misinformed.
For our common good we need to be seen as treating all communities equally. Sadly in recent times we have seen terrorism carried out by a Muslim to be 'Islamicised', bringing distress and fear to a whole community, whereas if done by a non-Muslim it is seen as an individual aberration. This goes against the teaching of all Abrahamic faiths, which say: 'No soul should bear the burden for another'. It is also contrary to basic justice. Why should all Muslims as a block pay for the actions of a few bad apples?
A creative space is needed for us to discuss all the serious issues that our young people, particularly young Muslims, face. Treating a whole community with suspicion, and its young people only through the prism of security, may satisfy a small section of politicians and pundits but is an unrealistic route to solve problems. We need an 'out-of-box' imaginative and bold national and local leadership, including from within the Muslim community. We also need non-judgmental contributions from the mainstream political and media class, and from academic and policy-making institutions. There is no shortcut to achieving our goal of protecting life and keeping ourselves safe.
It is vital to forge a genuine partnership with those in mosques and other organisations who have already shown an extraordinary unity and zeal to fight the menace of extremism. In order to do this we need to look into the effectiveness of the current Prevent policy. Prevent under the Labour government failed because it conflated security with community cohesion. The Coalition's Prevent agenda was based on the presumption of a 'conveyor belt theory', assuming that individuals start off angry and disaffected, then become more religious and politicised. Finally they turn to terror. There is hardly any evidence to prove this theory. Its ineffectiveness lies with the fact that mainstream Muslim groups were seen as 'non-violent extremists' by people in power. There was no buy-in from the Muslim community. Far more important, so many academics now believe, is the power of 'self-radicalisation' (particularly via the Internet and common to most 'lone wolf' scenarios).
Secondly, it is important for all of us to be careful with language, terminology and rhetoric in describing various Muslim groups and individual actions. Insensitive use of some core Islamic words taken from Arabic, such as 'Jihadists' and 'Islamists', displays huge ignorance of Muslim culture and vocabulary. Most Muslims do feel really hurt when they see indiscriminate and distorted use of a venerable word 'Jihad' (that means 'utmost effort'). In the same vein, although some try to differentiate between the words Islam ('willful submission to God') and Islamism, many Muslims see this as an extension of a Cold War vocabulary, badly used in place of Communism; Islamism can mean different things to different people.
Thirdly, the role of media cannot be underestimated in aggravating this situation. Our fourth estate has often miserably failed when it comes to Muslims and Islam. Even our national pride, the BBC, often proves insensitive in covering Muslim issues. The recent example is their decision to give airtime to the Muslim community's most hated person, Anjem Choudary, in its flagship Newsnight programme, angering many.
In a world torn by division, sanity and wisdom is needed. Three years ago this month, President Obama declared the 'War on Terror' was over. It is a poignant reminder that we find better ways of dealing with insecurity and terror in our midst.

Astoria's New Odyssey of Growth
By ALAN S. OSER
Published: April 20, 1997
WHEN Steve Valiotis chose the name for his new real-estate company in 1983, he picked the word ''alma,'' Greek for leap or jump. Mr. Valiotis hoped Alma Realty would be the base for a dramatic rise for his career after a few years of joining partners in making real-estate investments in Manhattan. The leap has come to pass, he says, but the biggest part has occurred not in Manhattan but in the Astoria section of Queens, where he and other Americans of Greek origin or descent continue to make a striking impact on business life and real estate activity even as the ethnic composition of Astoria grows more diverse.
As a citadel of Greek-Americans in New York City, Astoria has been infused in recent years with new immigrants from Bangladesh, the Philippines, Ireland, Colombia, India, China, the Dominican Republic and Pakistan, all of whom have been arriving in greater numbers than new immigrants from Greece.
No matter to Mr. Valiotis. He moved his business to Astoria in 1989, six years after founding Alma Realty, and last year he bought a vacant 36,000-square-foot garage building on 31st Street for expansion. The building stands in the very shadow of the 30th Avenue station of the elevated line that carries the N train through Astoria to its final stop at Ditmars Boulevard. Mr. Valiotis has resurrected it for office, store and garage space. Alma Realty's own office occupies the entire second floor. The first floor will have four stores.
''It's in my business interest being here, and it's my own community,'' said Mr. Valiotis. ''Astoria is close to Manhattan, it's close to the train. My bank is a few blocks away. My two kids go to school at St. Demetrios, a couple of blocks away. My costs are a third, a fourth of what they would be in Manhattan.''
The harmonious interplay of loyalty and self-interest is apparent in the accounts of the younger Greek-American brokers, investors, contractors, builders and business operators at work in Astoria, and is providing the impetus for commercial growth. Garages are becoming stores. Factory buildings are becoming offices. A catering hall becomes a night club. And in one case, a mixed-use building has provided apartments above a strip of new stores.
Even if the investors no longer live in Astoria, many of them seem to consider it home turf. As years go on, many who are or were residents build upon their Old World faith in real estate as an investment and put their money where their heart is.
''My parents were firm believers in real estate -- it's the Mediterranean attitude,'' said the American-born Nick Golfinopoulos. At the age of 32 he has already had a taste of development work in the reconstruction of a 10,000-square-foot site, where a garage building formerly stood, into commercial and residential space in partnership with his mother, who lives next door.
The second phase of their project -- apartments on the roof of the already completed stores, set back behind a broad terrace -- is about to be marketed, and the family is already planning a new project a few blocks away on 31st Avenue. ''Gradually we're hoping to do more sites in Astoria,'' Mr. Golfinopoulos said.
''We have in our mind that in real estate you never lose,'' said his mother, Ourania, a partner in the family business, Hermes Transport & Trading Corporation, which provides in-port transportation and other services to merchant vessels and seamen. ''You may make less money than in other things, but you never lose.''
One commercial developer who has already built up a few sites is Spiros Moshopoulos. Currently he is marketing the Apollonion Building, at 34-11 35th Avenue. It is a reconstruction of a factory that was once part of the Astoria Studios -- a filming and production center now rehabilitated and operated as the Kaufman Astoria Studios -- into a state-of-the-art office building, so far untenanted.
''In all Astoria there is not one modern office building,'' said Mr. Moshopoulos. ''It's all doctors on top of stores on Broadway, 30th Avenue and Steinway Street.''
Not entirely, perhaps, but certainly it is Astoria's vibrant commercial life that is the mark of those major streets. Parts of Astoria have become a regional draw through a Greek-oriented nightlife, especially on Broadway near the N train's 31st Street station. For local shopping, Steinway Street is still the main commercial thoroughfare, but for restaurants, cafes and night-time activities that draw Greeks and non-Greeks too, most of the action is on Broadway, and to a lesser degree on 30th Avenue and Ditmars Boulevard.
COMPLIMENTARY press accounts have helped draw a regional clientele recently to Uncle George's, a lively 24-hour Greek restaurant at Broadway and 34th Street. But the revelers in that vicinity do not overlook the many other eating and entertainment opportunities -- at the Grecian Cave, Z Disco, the Omonia Cafe, Kolonaki's (a year-old cafe), Akroyiali's (for seafood), Tierras Colombianos (Latin food; Greek ownership), the Galaxy Cafe, and the more upscale Karyatis Restaurant, with a pianist and singer.

Publishers Weekly10/14/2013
Planetary scientist Chambers and astronomy consultant Mitton trace the development of Western theories about the makeup of the solar system, from the Earth-centric model—which couldn't account for such problems as the retrograde movement of the planets—to the current eight-planet model. They admit that "the jigsaw is not yet complete" (celestial bodies like asteroids, meteors, and comets remain imperfectly understood) but are convinced that science has come far enough to be certain of a great deal. Their painstaking explanations for lay readers outline the methods used for gauging such things as planetary age, as well as major theories about how our moon formed—the most widely accepted being that it broke off from Earth as a result of a collision with a giant meteor. They also briefly address the evolution of life on Earth and why we're not likely to find complex forms on other planets in our vicinity. While the book is intended for general readers, an understanding of basic physics and geology is helpful. Despite the authors' best efforts, some sections are not clearly explained, such as the one on "resonances" in the asteroid belt. Still, there is much solid information to be gleaned from careful reading. (Dec.)

Installing Ubuntu From A Windows System With Wubi - Page 4
4 Uninstalling Ubuntu
If you like to uninstall Ubuntu, open the Control Center in Windows:
Go to Software:
In the Software window, you see a list of all installed software. Find Wubi and click on the Modify/Uninstall button:
You can now choose if you'd like to back up the downloaded Ubuntu files and the Ubuntu documents (in case you want to reinstall Ubuntu again later on). Make your selection and click on Uninstall:
Wubi is now being uninstalled. Afterwards, you can close the uninstaller and leave the Control Center:
Now when you reboot the system, the boot menu is also gone (because only Windows is left on the system), so your system is in the same state as it was before you installed Ubuntu.

Wooby is a fine and intelligent tool!
My problem is that it's downloading the ISO from 18.104.22.168 (ubuntu.ynet.sk). It would be much better if you could chose a mirror closer to you.
Critics ... can't live without them. I have to say it again, it's a great tool!
You can either:
1) edit the .metalink file in the wubi->install directory to only go to your nearest mirror (e.g. edit ubuntu-7.04-alternate-i386.iso.metalink in notepad)
2) manually download the .iso file from any mirror and put it in wubi->install (e.g download ubuntu-7.04-alternate-i386.iso)
and then run wubi
Puppy linux has been doing this for years now with pretty good success check it out http://www.puppylinux.org/user/downloads.php?cat_id=3
Is there an option to install Ubuntu from the live CD, which I already have, rather than downloading the ISO?
UNetbootin at http://lubi.sourceforge.net/unetbootin.html also does the same thing (installs Ubuntu from Windows without needing a CD), but unlike Wubi it installs to a real partition so you don't have to bother with the issues of a loop install. It also supports Fedora, openSuse, Mandriva, and Archlinux installation as well as Ubuntu.
If anyone is not sure about if WUBi is for them or not, take alook at this review i wrote before you download:
Or just give it a go since wubi is so easy, its not hard to remove if you dont like it.
Wubi and Windows 7----Does Wubi install in Windows 7?
I used Wubi to install Ubuntu Linux inWindows XP Home and Professional. Both are GREAT!!!
My question is------Does Wubi installer work in Windows 7?
Thanks a bunch,
Denis email@example.com
The total installation process is being nicely mentioned.

Hamas PM Ismail Haniyeh waves to people as they celebrate 3.
(photo credit:REUTERS)
US President Barack Obama's visit to the region confirmed his bias toward
Israel, Hamas Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh told crowds in Gaza on Friday in a
speech on the eve of the 37th Land Day, Palestinian news agency Ma'an
reported.Haniyeh warned his audience that Palestinians face ongoing
political, economic, military and media campaigns to give up their
land."We reject resettlement in Lebanon, Syria, Jordan or the Sinai,"
Ma'an quoted Haniyeh as saying, emphasizing that Palestinians must reject the
idea of settling in any land other than "Palestine." He added that Hamas is keen
to reach a reconciliation agreement with the rival Fatah
party.Meanwhile, approximately 2,000 Israeli Arabs took part in a
protest in Taibe ahead of Land Day, which Palestinians will mark on
Saturday.MKs Muhammad Barakei (Hadash) and Ahmed Tibi (United Arab
List-Ta'al) participated in the rally.Land Day is held annually on March
30 to commemorate the deaths of six Galilee Arabs in 1976 riots held over a
government decision to confiscate land.In the West Bank, protesters
clashed with soldiers on Friday at a demonstration ahead of Land Day in which
Palestinian and international activists organized a march between five villages
located in the south Hebron hills. The villages are at risk of being cut off
from the rest of the West Bank if planned construction of settlements and the
security barrier goes ahead.What was supposed to be a peaceful march
turned violent when soldiers tried to stop the demonstrators from accessing a
local road. The soldiers fired tear gas to try and disperse the crowd, and
several people were detained.Israeli construction in the West Bank is
seen by the Arab community as a way of altering the population demographics in
order to create a Jewish majority in the area.

How you I go about improving the responsiveness of this file reader I made?
I created a simple animation to see how it effects the UI and it really blocks the UI quite substantially.
I even tried using
File.slice to read the file in chunks but it only seems to garner a minor performance increase at the expense of taking much longer to load the file.
There is a fiddle available here: http://jsfiddle.net/8A3tP/2/
I've managed to get a bit of a better result by loading each of them sequentially using a recursive function in place of the for loop: http://jsfiddle.net/8A3tP/5/

Avg. Dealer Rating: (3 reviews) "Purchased the car.. As soon as I leave I realize a few problems, let the dealer know, which they seem willing to help me out with these problems at first, they told me to keep driving and we will talk about the problems the next business day. After a few ignored text messages I finally hear back and they tell me how they wont cover the problems. The problems were a crack in the windshield which they somehow did not notice, an alignment, cracks in the bumper (which you can only see up close, really close), and a bad battery. They did say they would pay for the battery (I had to purchase one because the battery in the car which was 4 years old failed on me on the way back to NC), I give them that. But only because I sent them pictures of me having it ran tests on at Autozone. All of these problems should have been taken care of when they purchased the car. But obviously weren't.. The car was obviously driven by their employee's, it smelt terrible inside even though they state it was detailed the day before I came to get it. Also, I was told that the car's chrome on the rims was chipping, I was told it was only minor and on one wheel. When I see it, it was a lot more than minor chipping. I obviously should have taken a closer look at everything rather than wait until I got on the road to check it out. If I would have checked everything out at the dealership I am sure I would have gotten everything fixed. But this dealership obviously lacks integrity. When I approached the salesmen about these problems (Mike) I was reamed and told how they have done me enough favors because I "lied" on my loan application. Somehow that has to do with them not paying for the problems with the car..... I guess? I would never come back here again, and I would never recommend anyone visit them either. Unless you enjoy being lied to and driving around cars with problems that seem to go ignored by the dealer."

Want a simple hand embroidery project (need help)
There donÂt make embroidery kits anymore, they way they used to. The make only cross stitch and crewel or counted cross stitch, which is even worse. Cross stitch is very simple, and it looks ok, but I wanted to practice some other stitches. I was looking for kits like I used to have when I was young. I found them only on eBay. I think I should draw my own design on fabric for embroidery, but I donÂt know how to do this. I thought about the iron on designs, but I am sort of worried they would fail. If you use ball point pen, but it get cover up my stitches like satin stitch, does it matter if itÂs not wash out ink? ItÂs very hard to make satin stitch look neat and not puckered, so I donÂt want to spend a lot of money, just have some practice type of fabric. I did buy one of the vintage kits, but I just hate to make it now, when I need to practice with something else that is more of a simple. I did take a hand embroidery class in high school.
I did see a few embroidery kits in BeverlyÂs, one is on pillow cases, but they are standard size, and I have queen size pillows. The other was for an infantÂs room, and the other was a series of Japanese costumed women, that would be much too difficult. I think the new embroidery machines mean, no one does it by hand anymore. I have an embroidery foot, but itÂs much too hard to use it. I wanted something that was by hand to kill odd hours, when I watching TV. I considered ribbon embroidery, but it looks very hard, and I donÂt have a teacher. I think crewel is too difficult to pull the yarn through. If I use a crewel canvas, itÂs going to be too difficult to work with floss. Can some suggest a pen for fabric drawing, or tell me if the iron on designs really work? If so what brand do you use? It would be so easy if I could just find a small simple kit, like they used to make.
Check out Herrschners - they have lots of embroidery. You might also try The Nordic Needle.
Here is a link that might be useful: Herrschners
This may not be what you're looking for, but Wal-Mart (believe it or not) has pillow cases with various stamped designs printed on them. And they come with the thread. I remember learning how to embroider as a very young girl and wanted to renew my skills. So one day when I was in Wal-Mart I just happened to see those and picked up a few. Now if I can just find the time... sigh
Thanks, there is no Walmart in my area. I tried Kmart, and they did not have anything. I have to go to the East Bay, so I don't go there very often, to go to Walmart. I got some fabric markers, to draw my own designs. I just wish they had more kits on the market. When I bid on them on ebay, I get out bid, because they are vintage, and the one I won, I am afraid to use it, because it's vintage, and I don't want to ruin it. LOL
Start out simple with a small piece of muslin, and draw on the muslin with a pencil (#2). Your stitches will cover the pencil and it will wash out. You can buy marking pencils that also wash out, but I find that I always have a simple pencil.
Aunt Martha is a brand of iron ons you can get. I get mine at the Ben Franklin or at Walmart. Use a hoop to hold your fabric taunt, I find one that fits my hand versus fits the design. You can aslo trace a simple design from a coloring book. Redwork is a nice way to start, because it only uses one color thread.
Here's a website that offers a lot of different designs and kits. The link doesn't work, so just copy and paste the URL.
I just remembered this: A lot of antiques shops and second-hand shops sell used linens, and a lot of those have hand embroidery on them. I have some that I love. It would be fairly easy to re-create those designs with a pencil, as someone else already suggested. That being said, here's the place I believe has exactly what you're looking for: http://www.patternbee.com/MENU.html

A financial consultant advises clients of an investment bank or financial services company on the best way to manage their money. They assesses customers' financial needs and work with them to build an investment portfolio that is comfortable for the client and builds wealth. To be successful, a financial consultant must build a client base; they need to identify prospective clients and cultivate relationships with them. Consultants may need to be creative in developing ways to attract new clients, although some larger companies clients may assign clients to consultants.Read More...
A primary role of this position includes educating potential investors about the variety of financial services and products their organization offers. Consultants work with their clients to assess future financial needs regarding major life events such as starting families, sending children to college, moving, and retiring. They help set an expected level of return on investment that corresponds to the amount of risk the client is willing to take. The financial consultant must cultivate continuing relationships with clients, as well as constantly reviewing their investment portfolios and offer advice as needed.
Most financial institutions require financial consultants have a bachelor's degree in a business or a finance-related discipline. Additionally, federal and state certifications must be obtained and kept up to date for this position. Financial consultants usually must have five or more years of experience at a lower-level position in investment advising.
Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. offers the largest salaries in town ($88K on average), but the considerable range in workers' salaries creates a rather varied pay scale that stretches from $41K to $233K.
Offering a median salary of only $69K, TIAA-CREF pays the least. Not only that, but the earnings range of $43K to $90K is pretty narrow, too.
Financial Consultants report using a diverse set of skills on the job. Lucky workers who know Financial Modeling can expect a significant pay bump, scoring salaries 25 percent above average. Financial Analysis and Financial Reporting are also correlated to pay that is above average, with increases between 7 percent and 25 percent. At the other end of the pay range are skills like Sales and Financial Advisor. The majority of those who know Financial Analysis also know Data Analysis.
Median of all compensation (including tips, bonus, and overtime) by years of experience.
Experience and income seem to be closely related; in general, the survey respondents who had worked for more years reported higher incomes. People who have worked for fewer than five years bring home $59K on average. Median compensation in the five-to-10 year group, however, is higher at approximately $74K. People with 10 to 20 years of experience make an average of about $89K in this role. Professionals boasting more than two decades of experience also boast a six-figure median salary of $115K.
Oakland offers some of the highest pay in the country for Financial Consultants, 44 percent above the national average. Financial Consultants can also look forward to large paychecks in cities like Minneapolis (+27 percent), San Francisco (+26 percent), Seattle (+18 percent), and Washington (+15 percent). San Antonio is home to the smallest salaries in the field, lagging the national average by 17 percent. A couple other locations with smaller-than-average paychecks include Louisville (15 percent lower) and Philadelphia (14 percent lower).

Thursday, April 21, 2011
Alexion Reports First Quarter 2011 Results06:30 EDT Thursday, April 21, 2011 CHESHIRE, Conn. (Business Wire) -- Alexion Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: ALXN) today announced financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2011. Alexion Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("Alexion" or, the "Company") reported net product sales of Soliris® (eculizumab) of $166.1 million, reflecting steady additions of new patients, compared to $117.6 million for the same period in 2010. Soliris, approved in the US (2007), European Union (2007) and Japan (2010), is the only drug specifically indicated for the treatment of patients with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH), a rare, debilitating and life-threatening blood disease. Historically, Alexion's non-GAAP operating results have been equal to GAAP operating results less both the impact of share-based compensation and taxes that are not payable in cash (non-cash taxes). With the completion of two acquisitions in the quarter, Alexion's non-GAAP operating results will now also exclude amortization of acquired intangible assets and costs associated with acquisitions. The following summary table is provided for investors' convenience: (in thousands of US dollars, except per-share data) Three months endedMarch 312011 2010 Total revenues $ 166,126 $ 117,578 GAAP net income $ 26,830 $ 20,934 Share-based compensation 11,331 8,104 Acquisition-related costs 9,928 - Amortization of purchased intangibles 69 - Non-cash tax expense 8,110 5,516 Non-GAAP net income $ 56,268 $ 34,554 Shares used in computing diluted earnings per share (GAAP) 95,183 92,090 Shares used in computing diluted earnings per share (non-GAAP) 96,082 93,364 GAAP earnings per share - diluted $ 0.28 $ 0.23 Non-GAAP earnings per share - diluted $ 0.59 $ 0.37 First Quarter Non-GAAP Financial Results: The Company reported non-GAAP net income of $56.3 million, or $0.59 per share, for the first quarter of 2011, compared to non-GAAP net income of $34.6 million, or $0.37 per share, in the first quarter of 2010. Alexion's non-GAAP operating expenses for Q1 2011 were $85.9 million, compared to $65.2 million for Q1 2010. Non-GAAP research and development (R&D) expenses for Q1 2011 were $28.1 million, compared to $20.3 million for Q1 2010. The increase in R&D expenses primarily reflected the expansion of the Company's clinical trial programs. Non-GAAP selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses for Q1 2011 were $57.8 million, compared to $44.9 million for Q1 2010. The increase in non-GAAP SG&A expenses primarily reflected costs associated with the expansion of the Company's commercial operations in new geographies. First Quarter GAAP Financial Results: Alexion reported GAAP net income of $26.8 million, or $0.28 per share, for Q1 2011, including a negative after-tax impact of $6.9 million, or $0.07 per share, from costs related to the Taligen Therapeutics and Orphatec Pharmaceuticals acquisitions during the quarter, compared to Q1 2010 GAAP net income of $20.9 million, or $0.23 per share. On a GAAP basis, operating expenses for Q1 2011 were $106.7 million, including $10.0 million of acquisition-related costs, compared to $73.0 million for Q1 2010. GAAP R&D expenses for Q1 2011 were $30.8 million, compared to $22.4 million for Q1 2010. GAAP SG&A expenses were $65.9 million for Q1 2011, compared to $50.6 million for Q1 2010. Balance Sheet: As of March 31, 2011, the Company had $348.8 million in cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities, compared to $361.6 million at the end of 2010. The amount outstanding at the end of the quarter reflected outflows of approximately $114 million associated with the Taligen Therapeutics and Orphatec Pharmaceuticals acquisitions and inflows of $60 million in short-term borrowing during the first quarter. "In the early months of 2011, we achieved steady growth in serving patients with PNH in our core territories, and started laying the initial groundwork for expanding into new major countries. At the same time, we have reached a key milestone in our aHUS program with our US and EU regulatory submissions," said Leonard Bell, M.D., Chief Executive Officer of Alexion. "As we look ahead in 2011, we expect continued growth in our PNH operations and notable progress toward serving patients with other severe and ultra-rare disorders through the accelerated development of our expanded pipeline portfolio." Research and Development Programs:aHUS Submissions In early April, the Company announced that it has submitted marketing applications to the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the European Medicines Agency (EMA) for Soliris as a treatment for patients with atypical Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome (aHUS). Both the US and EU submissions include the positive data from the two 26-week Phase 2 studies of Soliris as a treatment for adult and adolescent patients with aHUS. Transplant: Acute Humoral Kidney Rejection (AHR) Eculizumab is being investigated as a treatment for patients undergoing kidney transplant who are at elevated risk of antibody mediated rejection, also known as acute humoral rejection (AHR). Alexion today announced that it has recently concluded successful discussions with regulators regarding the clinical protocols for two global, company-sponsored controlled clinical trials evaluating eculizumab to prevent AHR in patients undergoing kidney transplant in living- or deceased-donor settings. The Company is preparing to initiate these studies later this year. Alexion continues to support investigator-initiated studies in elevated-risk kidney transplantation in the US and Australia. New Product Development Alexion has established a Translational Medicine Center of Excellence in Cambridge, Massachusetts, to more rapidly move early-stage drug candidates into clinical trials. Beyond eculizumab, the Company is initially focused on four unique and innovative drug candidates. Alexion has accelerated the clinical development of TT30, a specific inhibitor of the alternative complement pathway with a mechanism of action distinct from Soliris, and expects to initiate clinical development of TT30 in 2011. The Company is also focused on accelerating the development of its cPMP replacement therapy for patients with molybdenum cofactor deficiency (MoCD) Type A. In addition, a novel anti-inflammatory antibody is expected to enter clinical trials in a rare and life-threatening disorder in the second half of this year. Finally, the Company expects to initiate a clinical trial of samalizumab in patients with a rare, solid tumor later this year. 2011 Financial Guidance: Earlier this month, Alexion updated its 2011 revenue guidance, from the previously announced range of $715 to $735 million, now to the higher range of $720 to $740 million. The upward revision in revenue guidance takes into account continued global growth of Soliris for PNH, and the potential for an earlier than previously expected launch of Soliris for aHUS in the US. The earlier US launch could occur if the regulatory submission is granted priority review by the FDA, and if a positive decision is then received, making a launch in the US possible late in the fourth quarter of 2011. Other items of previously announced 2011 guidance are being reiterated at this time. Conference Call/Web Cast Information: Alexion will host a conference call/webcast to discuss matters mentioned in this release. The call is scheduled for today, April 21, 2011, at 10:00 a.m., Eastern Time. To participate in this call, dial 888-297-9007 (USA) or 719-325-2212 (International), confirmation code 3335096 shortly before 10:00 a.m., Eastern Time. A replay of the call will be available for a limited period following the call, beginning at 1:00 p.m. Eastern Time. The replay number is 888-203-1112 (USA) or 719-457-0820 (International). The audio webcast can be accessed at www.alexionpharma.com. About Soliris: Soliris is a first-in-class terminal complement inhibitor developed from the laboratory through regulatory approval and commercialization by Alexion. Soliris has been approved in the US, European Union, Japan and other territories as the first treatment for patients with PNH, an ultra-rare, debilitating and life-threatening blood disorder defined by chronic uncontrolled complement activation which causes chronic red blood cell destruction (hemolysis), leading to blood clots, organ failure, and shortened survival. Prior to these approvals, there were no therapies specifically available for the treatment of patients with PNH. Soliris (eculizumab) is not approved for the treatment of aHUS or other indications other than PNH. Alexion's breakthrough approach to complement inhibition has received some of the pharmaceutical industry's highest honors: the 2008 Prix Galien USA Award for Best Biotechnology Product with broad implications for future biomedical research and the 2009 Prix Galien France Award in the category of Drugs for Rare Diseases. More information on Soliris is available at www.soliris.net. About Alexion: Alexion Pharmaceuticals, Inc. is a biopharmaceutical company focused on serving patients with severe and ultra-rare disorders through the innovation, development and commercialization of life-transforming therapeutic products. Alexion is the global leader in complement inhibition and has developed and markets Soliris (eculizumab) as a treatment for patients with PNH, a debilitating, ultra-rare and life-threatening blood disorder. Soliris is approved in more than 35 countries. Alexion is evaluating other potential indications for Soliris and is pursuing development of other innovative biotechnology product candidates in early stages of development. This press release and further information about Alexion Pharmaceuticals, Inc. can be found at: www.alexionpharma.com. This press release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures that involve adjustments to GAAP figures. Alexion believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, when considered together with the GAAP figures, can enhance an overall understanding of Alexion's past financial performance and its prospects for the future. The non-GAAP financial measures are included with the intent of providing both management and investors with a more complete understanding of underlying operational results and trends. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are among the primary indicators Alexion management uses for planning and forecasting purposes and measuring the Company's performance. These non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP figures. A reconciliation of the GAAP to non-GAAP figures is included in this press release. [ALXN-E] This news release contains forward-looking statements, including statements related to guidance regarding anticipated financial results for 2011, assessment of the Company's financial position and commercialization efforts, medical benefits and commercial potential for Soliris for PNH and aHUS and other potential indications, expansion of clinical and commercial operations to additional countries, potential of Alexion's complement-inhibition technology and other technologies; plans for clinical programs for each of our product candidates; plans for recently acquired companies and programs; progress in developing commercial infrastructure, and interest and acceptance regarding Soliris in the patient, physician and payor communities. Forward-looking statements are subject to factors that may cause Alexion's results and plans to differ from those expected, including for example, decisions of regulatory authorities regarding marketing approval or material limitations on the marketing of Soliris for PNH and aHUS and other potential indications, delays in arranging satisfactory manufacturing capabilities and establishing commercial infrastructure, the possibility that results of clinical trials are not predictive of safety and efficacy results of Soliris in broader patient populations in the disease studied or other diseases, the risk that recent acquisitions will not result in short-term or long-term benefits, risks related to the integration of the operations of Taligen into Alexion, the possibility that initial results of commercialization are not predictive of future rates of adoption of Soliris in PNH, aHUS or other diseases, the risk that third parties will not agree to license any necessary intellectual property to Alexion on reasonable terms or at all, the risk that third party payors (including governmental agencies) will not reimburse for the use of Soliris at acceptable rates or at all, the risk that estimates regarding the number of patients with PNH, aHUS or other disorders is inaccurate, and a variety of other risks set forth from time to time in Alexion's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including but not limited to the risks discussed in Alexion's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2010 and in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Alexion does not intend to update any of these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof, except when a duty arises under law.ALEXION PHARMACEUTICALS, INC.CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS(in thousands, except per share amounts)(unaudited) Three months endedMarch 312011 2010 Net product sales $ 166,126 $ 117,578 Cost of sales (1) 19,228 13,999 Operating expenses: Research and development (1) 30,810 22,374 Selling, general and administrative (1) 65,858 50,635 Acquisition-related costs (2) 9,928 - Amortization of purchased intangibles 69 - Total operating expenses 106,665 73,009 Operating income 40,233 30,570 Other income (expense) 593 (497 ) Income before income taxes 40,826 30,073 Income tax provision 13,996 9,139 Net income $ 26,830 $ 20,934 Earnings per common share Basic $ 0.30 $ 0.24 Diluted $ 0.28 $ 0.23 Shares used in computing earnings per common share Basic 90,862 88,506 Diluted 95,183 92,090 (1) The following table summarizes the share-based compensation expenseincluded in the respective captions of the condensed consolidatedstatements of operations above: Three months endedMarch 3120112010Share-based compensation expense: Cost of sales $ 545 $ 315 Research and development 2,733 2,085 Selling, general and administrative 8,053 5,704 $ 11,331 $ 8,104 (2) Acquisition-related costs during the quarter ended March 31, 2011 includetransaction and separation costs totaling $9,792, as well as adjustmentsto the fair value of contingent consideration of $136.
