Opinion & Analysis
Twelve months and $4.7 billion later, the Government's asset sales programme has fallen billions of dollars short of the headiest predictions and the hoped-for queues of mum and dad investors have shrunk after many were stung by an initial flop.
OPINION: But Government ministers were yesterday determinedly upbeat after unveiling details of the latest - and National says probably final - asset sale, with Genesis shares expected to go for $736 million.
The shares have been priced at $1.55 each and New Zealanders who buy shares and hold them for 12 months will be eligible for one bonus share for every share they hold, up to a cap of 2000 bonus shares.
Polls show the asset sales programme is unpopular with voters, even after attempts to sweeten the pill by pledges to retain 51 per cent in Crown ownership and promises to put Kiwis at the front of the queue with a guaranteed 85 per cent or more New Zealand ownership.
But much of the political heat has gone out of the issue, even after it fell short of expectations both on the amount it would raise, and the opportunity for so-called "mum and dad" investors to dip their toes in the sharemarket.
Once the share offer closes on April 11, the Government will have raised $4.7 billion all-up from the sale of Mighty River Power, Meridian, Air New Zealand and Genesis shares - about $2.6b of which will have gone to retail investors, including "mums and dads".
That compares with Prime Minister John Key's initial belief the Government could raise as much as $10b - later pegged back to between $5b and $7b.
The Government mainly blames the shortfall on the parlous state of state-owned coal miner Solid Energy, which forced its withdrawal from the programme.
But investors were also spooked when Labour and the Greens pledged reforms to curb power company profits, and shares in the Mighty River Power float took a dive.
Opposition parties say the asset sales have been a flop, both in terms of lost dividends from the power companies - put at $147m a year by the Greens - and the cost of the sales, which they put at a further $500m.
Labour says mum and dad investors have lost out too, with big institutional investors being the big winners.
According to a breakdown supplied by English's office, ownership is now roughly made up of 51 per cent held by the Crown, about 12 per cent by foreign institutions, 10 per cent by New Zealand institutions and the rest - about 27 per cent - by retail investors, out of which "mum and dad" investors are drawn.

Study Details Benefits, Limits of Green Tea
Green tea? Black tea? Red tea? Which is best? Scroll down for more tea tips.
A new study finds that green tea significantly reduces the risk of death from many causes, including heart disease. The study did not find, however, that green tea has any effect on cancer, as has been previously claimed.
The study took place in northeastern Japan, where 80 percent of the population drinks green tea. Researchers looked at more than 40,000 adults and compared those who drank less than one cup of tea a day to those who drank three to five cups a day. They found that over the span of 11 years, those who drank more tea were less likely to die of heart disease. Epidemiologist Shinichi Kuriyama from Tohoki University School of Medicine headed the study.
"We think our findings may explain different mortality profiles between Japan and the U.S," Kuriyama says. "Now, the Japanese have longest longevity in the world."
The study showed that women saw a greater decrease in heart disease than men. For women who drank five or more cups of green tea daily, there was a 31 percent lower risk of death from heart disease. For men, the risk was reduced by 22 percent. For both men and women the biggest decrease was in death due to stroke.
Green tea is made by a simpler process than black tea. Tea leaves are steamed immediately after picking. When black tea is made, tea leaves are fermented in a humidity-controlled room, then dried — a longer process that may remove some antioxidants.
Joe Vinson is a biochemist at the University of Scranton in Pennsylvania who studies antioxidants and food. Vinson says the results of the study are important but not conclusive.
A rigorous long-term clinical trial would be needed, he says, to solidly establish cause and effect.
Another Spot of Tea, Anyone?
As Jeffrey Blumberg, professor of nutrition at Tufts University says, "When you've been around 5,000 years, lots of stories get built up." Below, some clarification on what has become the murky world of tea research and consumerism.
Four Teas: One Plant
White tea, green, oolong and black teas all come from the same plant: Carmellia sinensis. The type of tea is determined by how the leaves are processed, how much fermentation, or oxidation, they go through. Whereas green and white teas are non-oxidized, oolong is partially oxidized, and black tea is fully oxidized.
Red Tea Reality Check
Red tea, as it is referred in the West, is not a tea! It is a tisane, an herbal infusion, from an entirely different plant. Red tea comes from a South African flowering shrub called a rooibos plant, and is mild in flavor. Often other ingredients, such as cinnamon or vanilla, are added to it. In Asia, red tea can also refer to oolong tea.
Green with envy?
Though black and green tea are chemically dissimilar, research hasn't proven that one type of tea is better for your health than the other. In fact, says Professor Joe Vinson at the University of Scranton, "Nobody has compared green and black tea, except in animals."
Bottle Your Antioxidants
If you are interested in getting caffeine, get it with antioxidants, Vinson, says. He recommends bottled tea, even if it has sugar, over soda because of the added antioxidants in tea.

Bootham Crescent
Sat 19th Jan
Weather permitting, York City host another important game when Aldershot Town visit Bootham Crescent this weekend. The Minstermen may still be falling just short of mid-table but the fixture at least allows them an opportunity of claiming their first 'double' since returning to the Football League this season. That follows Matty Blair and Jason Walker netting early second-half goals in a 2-0 victory at the Recreation Ground in late September. Opponents Aldershot are still in deep relegation trouble but come into the contest on the back of successive league victories over Accrington Stanley and Barnet since the turn of the year, plus an FA Cup third round triumph at the expense of Rotherham United.
"Chris Smith has had an x-ray on his foot because we thought he might have a little stress fracture, but we don't think that's the case and he should be okay with an injection if tomorrow's game is on. David McGurk is fine as well," York manager Gary Mills told The Press.
Central defenders Chris Smith (foot) and David McGurk (neck) should both recover in time to line up for the Minstermen. New striker Ben Everson is also available after receiving international clearance following his arrival from Iceland. But attacking trio Ashley Chambers, Michael Coulson and Oli Johnson remain out with injuries and on loan Alex Rodman is ineligible to face his parent club.
York City (probable): Ingham, Oyebanjo, McGurk, Smith, Fyfield, Parslow, Kerr, Potts, McLaughlin, Blair, Walker
subs: Musselwhite, Allan, Challinor, Bullock, McReady, Reed, Everson
New signing who is still totally unknown in this country after scoring goals in Iceland.
Aldershot striker Danny Hylton serves the second of a three-game ban after being sent-off following his recent FA Cup hat-trick against Rotherham United. Nine-goal top scorer Craig Reid should lead the attack with former York marksman Michael Rankine on the bench after failing to score in his last 23 games. But on loan Dani Lopez has already managed five in ten appearances since coming in from Stevenage.
Aldershot Town (probable): Young, Herd, Brown, Bradley, Tonkin, Cadogan, Hector, Rose, Vincenti, Reid, Lopez
Former York striker but now without a league goal in fifteen months.
Aldershot lost three times in four Conference visits to Bootham Crescent after winning on their debut trip. The original Aldershot club made 22 Football League visits, winning five times and drawing six between 1959 and 1990. York won the last Football League meeting 2-0 in December 1990 courtesy of Ian Helliwell's brace in front of an 1,749 attendance. Team: Marples, McMillan, Hall, Reid, Tutill, Warburton, Pepper, McCarthy, Helliwell, Naylor (Cook), Canham

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars
Jaws is often cited as a turning point for mainstream American cinema – its record-breaking success at the box office marking it as, essentially, the first Summer blockbuster. Watching it now, however, what is striking is how different it is to so much of its progeny, and a large part of that is down to the skill and dedication of the young Steven Spielberg, who knew how to tease, manipulate and frighten an audience, but also knew how important it was that the audience cared about the characters first. By the end of the opening sequence, the 26-year-old Spielberg has you in the palm of his hand.
Take the attack on the Kintner boy. The placement of the scene, and its effect, is sometimes compared to Hitchcock's shower scene, although the sequence is weighed much more towards build-up than pay-off. Roy Scheider's cop, Police Chief Brody, »

"Lost" is an exaggeration: it's always existed in private collections and, more recently, as dodgy online copies. A couple of years ago however, we reported the surprise news that an actual original negative of Stanley Kubrick's first film Fear And Desire had been found in a defunct film lab in Puerto Rico. Now, as was hoped at the time, a full restoration has finally been completed, overseen by the Library of Congress, and is set to be released by Eureka.Kubrick's first feature was shot for an estimated $10,000, and involves four soldiers in an unidentified war crashing behind enemy lines. It was written by Howard Sackler, a classmate of Kubrick's who would go on to win a Pulitzer Prize in 1968. Paul Mazursky, the director of Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice, plays a mentally disturbed grunt who accidentally kills a captive.Kubrick himself called it "a bumbling amateur film exercise" and »

Who knew that a movie about a shark, filmed in the 70s before the era of green screen and CG madness, would become one of the most memorable action films of all time?
Closing in on its 40th Anniversary, Jaws makes its way to Blu-ray as part of Universal's 100th Anniversary series. The fully restored film has been remastered with 7.1 Audio and deservedly comes with a new feature-length documentary.
Jaws centers on the beachside community of Amity. When rumors of a shark attack begin to spread, the locals are more worried about the impact it will have on the summer vacation season and their businesses than the potential safety hazard of having a shark on their beach.
Unfortunately, tragedy strikes, forcing three unlikely allies to go head-to-head with Jaws, a great white shark. To this day, captivating performances by Roy Scheider, Robert Shaw and Richard Dreyfuss keep Jaws on »

With all of the action and special effects on display in Jaws, it's easy to forget that the film also features a well-crafted screenplay (attributed to novelist Peter Benchley – who took several cracks at it -- and Carl Gottlieb, with assists from Steven Spielberg, Howard Sackler, and John Milius) that manages to improve upon the novel in some very key ways. Jaws is filled with examples of how good screenplays show things rather than tell them – but one of its most famous (and important) scenes is a lengthy monologue from Robert Shaw. Shaw's character Quint tells Hooper and Brody of his time aboard the USS Indianapolis during World War II – most notably the days spent floating in the ocean after the ship sank – a time when sharks feasted on...

Killer's Kiss
Directed by Stanley Kubrick
Written by Stanley Kubrick and Howard Sackler
Just as last week's column entry took a look at one of Stanley Kubrick's earliest works, The Killing, this week yet an earlier piece of cinema from the director is explored. One year prior to making his real breakout film and equipped with what amounted to a micro-budget, Kubrick and his limited cast and crew filmed around the streets of Manhattan to tell the tale of two lovers in Killer's Kiss. Any production values are incredibly minute (artificial sets, special lighting) when compared to the master's later work, and even tonally the film differs very much from almost everything he did later, yet the curious may still want to discover this one.

You know what's a fun task? Trying to convince anyone that Steven Spielberg's 1975 "Jaws" is not an American classic and a nearly flawless film. It's kind of impossible, and if you were to somehow take this position, you would either be painfully foolhardy, Armond White, or both.
The film is regarded as the first bonafide summer blockbuster, one that, along with subsequent seasonal smashes like "Star Wars," were part of the death of the 1970s silver-age era of indie American filmmaking. Its enormous box-office success made irrevocable changes to the the studio business model that has turned the months between April and September into a frenzy of special effects and explosions. But "Jaws" shouldn't be demonized for that, because unlike most of today's blockbusters, it was and is much more than a spectacle-driven piece meant to lure audiences to the theaters.
In fact, for much of the maligned production of "Jaws, »

This year, New Directors/New Films is "breaking precedent and presenting a film nearly 20 years older than the festival itself."
Nick Schager in Slant: "So loathed by Stanley Kubrick that the legendary director reportedly confiscated all existing copies to keep it out of circulation, Fear and Desire proves a modest, if relatively promising, 1953 debut for the late auteur, touching on his trademark themes via the allegorical tale of soldiers shot down behind enemy lines in an unnamed country in an unspecified time. Kubrick's story, penned by Howard Sackler, is deliberately vague with regard to nationalities and politics so that its focus can remain squarely on the psychological turmoil of its characters, a ragtag quartet that includes ruminative Lieutenant Corby (Kenneth Harp), gruff Sergeant Mac (Frank Silvera), meek Private Fletcher (Stephen Colt), and sensitive Private Sidney (future filmmaker Paul Mazursky) — men whose narrated internal monologues articulate, with frequent pretentiousness, Kubrick's investigation »

SteamOS update 2.83 beta released, new Nvidia and AMD drivers hit
Today SteamOS has a new beta, which brings a much newer Nvidia driver to the table and a fresher build of the new AMD PRO driver.
The Nvidia driver is now 367.27 and AMD GPU PRO is now at RC2. The Nvidia driver was especially out of date, so to have both updated is really going to help it.
SteamOS 2.83 Beta Brings AMD Radeon GPU-PRO RC2 and Nvidia 367.27 Video Drivers
Today, June 29, 2016, Valve's engineers working on the SteamOS gaming operating system based on the stable Debian GNU/Linux 8 "Jessie" distribution have released a new Beta update.
SteamOS Brewmaster update 2.83 is now available for early adopters, it was pushed to the brewmaster_beta, and it comes one month after the release of the previous Beta version, SteamOS 2.80, to enhance both the Nvidia and AMD Radeon graphics drivers.

System Shock is a complete remake of the genre defining classic from 1994 built by a team of industry veterans. Remember Citadel.

Fedora 24 upgrade
Fedora 24 was released last week, so of course I had to upgrade my machines. As has become the norm, there weren't any serious issues, but I hit a few annoyances this time around. The first was due to packages in the RPMFusion repos not being signed. This isn't Fedora's fault, as RPMFusion is a completely separate project. And it was temporary: by the time I upgraded my laptop on Sunday night, the packages had all been signed.
Fedora Flock 2016
I've been working on a shirt design for this year's Fedora Flock in Krakow, Poland and figured that I'd share what I've put together! I'm also including some of my earlier attempts at the design as well to show my thought process as well. Ps. for those who may not be familiar with landmarks and iconic images of Krakow (and yes, I too am one of you too… much research was needed!) here's a list of some of the imagery that I tied to incorporate in the designs.
A F24 user story
Honestly, nothing from the features in the announcement of the Fedora 24 release didn't manage to excite me intro upgrading my desktop from an old, out-of-support Fedora. It's main task is to edit digital photography and for some years a Linux solution is decent at it.

This doesn't change much in the interface, but it does mean we are using something that is maintained and gets updates and is a good deal more secure.

Google phone might not be the best move for Android
It's like the early 2000s again. With Apple finally launching the first ever iPhone, there is talk about Google doing something similar. Of course, that happened and it didn't, with the Nexus line the closest thing to a "Google phone". Fast-forward nearly a decade, Google is rumored to once again try its hand at actually becoming a smartphone maker too. Like Apple. It doesn't make business sense, of course. But what if it were true? What if Google din put out a "gPhone"? It definitely can, like the Pixel C Android tablet. But if it did, this non-Nexus Google-made Android smartphone would be an atrocity for consumers. Here are the reasons why.

Open access and Brexit
The UK research community's response to the recent referendum – in which a majority of 52% voted for the UK to leave the European Union (or "Brexit") – has been one of horror and disbelief.
This is no surprise, not least because Brexit would have a serious impact on research funding in the UK. Nature reports that UK universities currently get around 16% of their research funding from the EU, and that the UK currently hosts more EU-funded holders of ERC grants than any other member state. Elsewhere, Digital Science has estimated that the UK could lose £1 billion in science funding if the UK government does not make up the shortfall in EU-linked research funds.

Makulu's LinDoz Is a Smooth Windows-Cinnamon BlendSubmitted by Rianne Schestowitz on Wednesday 29th of June 2016 12:42:46 PM Filed under
That technical issue aside, The MakuluLinux line is one of my favorites. Unlike typical distros, Makulu strays from some of the mainstream primary applications.
It also has a set of the most commonly used software preinstalled regardless of the desktop flavor selected. For example, it uses the WPS office suite.
If you fancy the Cinnamon desktop, you will feel right at home with MakuluLinux. If you cut your computing teeth on Microsoft Windows, you will be particularly enamored with the LinDoz Edition.

For an application first demonstrated a year ago, GigJam still feels tantalizingly unfinished, with a limited number of services you can connect to, frustrating bugs when connecting to Microsoft's own services, no way to work offline and an interface you're unlikely to figure out without reading the documentation (and even then may find frustrating).
It's also a fascinating glimpse into what the Microsoft Graph can unlock. The ability to filter your CRM leads information based on your meetings, or your email based on your unfulfilled orders, or your tasks based on the emails about what you're supposed to be doing -- and share that view with your colleagues -- could make you hugely productive. The ability to see the PowerPoint and the Word document you're going to use in a meeting, along with the emails everyone has had from the people you're meeting with so you know what they care about, could be a great way to prepare for the meeting. And you can do all that without sharing more information than you want (probably). It's a fantastic idea, but Microsoft really needs to improve the execution.

COMs run Android on quad- or octa-core Samsung SoCs
Boardcon announced a pair of 70 x 58mm COMs that run Android on Samsung's quad-core, Cortex-A9 S5P4418 and octa-core, Cortex-A53 S5P6818 SoCs.
The MINI4418 and MINI6818 computer-on-modules are "compatible" with each other, as well as with Boardcon's earlier MINI3288, which is based on the quad-core, Cortex-A17 Rockchip RK3288. The new COMs instead tap two Samsung SoCs: the quad-core, Cortex-A9 S5P4418 for the MINI4418, and the octa-core, Cortex-A53 S5P6818 for the MINI6818. The MINI6818 supports applications such as "sensitive home automation, security, and industrial applications," whereas the MINI4418 supports "MID, multimedia advertising, intelligent control terminals, and smart instrumentation," says Boardcon.

We're not sure why Axiomtek, one of the more prolific of embedded vendors, waited so long to launch its first 6th Generation Intel Core ("Skylake") based Mini-ITX board, but it's a welcome edition. Back in April, the company announced a Skylake-based PICO500 SBC using the smaller Pico-ITX form factor.

But in the five years since, Chromebooks have defied expectations, becoming the most used device in US classrooms and even outselling Macs for the first time this year. Still, people complain about their inability to run useful software, but that's all about to change.

Good 3.4 /5 from 7 reviews
Small town Austria is nice. Good hotel, good price. Pretty straight forward...
There was good and bad at this hotel. Bad - no desk and chair to work on, no reasonable temperature control in room, very strange that no shower curtain for overhead in-bath shower (so yes, pools of water on the floor after shower!), people smoking regularly inside hotel/lift, no hot food for breakfast, very soft beds. Good - great food in evening in hotel restaurant, reasonable selection for breakfast but nothing hot, very nice staff overall.

This application claims priority to provisional application Ser. No. 60/956,441, filed Aug. 17, 2007.
This invention relates in general to earth boring bits, and in particular to a protective layer formed on exposed outer surfaces of the bit to protect against corrosion that may lead to leg breakage.
One type of earth boring bit has a steel body with at least one bit leg, normally three, or it could have four, such as for a pilot reamer. A cone with cutting elements is rotatably mounted to a bearing pin depending from each bit leg. Hardfacing is typically applied to part of the outer surface of each bit leg. Alternately, the bit leg may have tungsten carbide compacts pressed into the outer surface alone or in combination with hardfacing. The hardfacing is usually a mixture of carbide particles in a matrix of iron, nickel or cobalt, or alloys thereof.
In some geographic areas, bit legs have been known to break. The fracture is often in the vicinity of the weld on the ball plug. The ball plug and weld close the outer end of a passage for inserting balls into a locking arrangement between the cone and the bearing pin.
The bit has a steel body having at least one leg with a depending bearing pin. A cone having cutting elements is rotatably mounted to the bearing pin. An anti-corrosive coating is formed on an outer surface of the leg to reduce the tendency for leg breakage. The coating comprises an alloy selected from the group consisting of iron, nickel, chromium, copper, aluminum, zirconium, and silicon. Preferably, the coating; comprises a nickel-based; alloy containing at least 50% nickel. The coating may also be a polymer, such as an adhesive or epoxy. A ball plug weld is on the outer surface of the leg. The coating is preferably located above and below the ball plug weld and may be on the weld itself.
The bit may has a layer of hardfacing on portions of the outer surface of the leg, and other portions of the outer surface of the leg are free of the layer of hardfacing. The bit-leg may also have tungsten carbide compacts pressed into the outer surface, along or in combination with hardfacing. Further, the bit leg may be free of hardfacing or compacts. The hardfacing may be formed of carbide particles in a steel alloy matrix. The coating is preferably located on the other portions of the outer surface of the leg, but the coating could also overly the hardfacing and/or the Compacts. The coating may also be located on an inner surface of the leg.
Referring to
A cone 21 mounts rotatably on each bearing pin 19. Cone 21 has a plurality of cutting elements 23. In the example shown, cutting elements 23 comprise tungsten carbide compacts that are press-fitted into mating holes in cone 21, but they could alternately comprise milled teeth. A seal assembly 25 seals lubricant in the bearing spaces between bearing pin 19 and cone 21. A pressure compensator assembly 26 equalizes the pressure of the lubricant within the bearing spaces to the borehole fluid pressure.
The retaining system for retaining cone 21 on bearing pin 19 comprises a plurality of balls 27. Each ball 27 fits between mating grooves on bearing pin 19 and in the cavity of cone 21. Balls 27 are inserted through a passage that is plugged by a ball plug 29 after assembly. A weld 31 is made at the outer end of ball plug 29 to secure it in place.
Bit leg 17 has an outer surface 33 that is a segment of a cylinder slightly under the diameter of the hole being drilled. A protective coating or layer 35 is formed on each bit leg outer surface 33 for inhibiting corrosion, particularly in high stress areas. Portions of bit leg 11 undergo higher stress than other portions while drilling due to the weight imposed on the bit, creating cracks. If the drilling fluid contains corrosive materials, such as chloride, the fluid may lower the threshold for crack growth, which can result in bit leg 17 breaking. Protective layer 35 is a material that protects the areas of bit 11 that encounter high stress, inhibiting the corrosive drilling fluid from entering the cracks.
Preferably, protective layer 35 is a layer formed of a material that is less susceptible to corrosion than is the steel body 13. Suitable metals include alloys of iron, nickel, chromium, copper, aluminum, zirconium, and silicon. In one example, protective layer 35 is a nickel-based alloy containing at least 50% nickel. More specifically, the alloy may comprise approximately 60% nickel, 22% chromium, 9% molybdenum; and 4% niobium. Alternately, protective layer 35 could be formed of a polymer, such as an epoxy or adhesive. Protective layer 35 is not intended to be a hardfacing by itself. The hardness of protective layer 35 will not necessarily be greater than the hardness of steel body 13 and may be less. The smoothness or surface finish of protective layer 35 is not significant, and it can be rougher in texture than steel body 13.
Protective layer 35 is illustrated in
Protective layer 35 may be applied in several known manners. If made up of a metallic material, protective layer may be applied in any manner that provides sufficient bonding to the steel body 13 for drilling operations. These processes include but are not limited to spraying, welding, cladding or plating. The spraying may be a type that occurs at a relatively low temperature to avoid damage to seal assembly 25, such as high velocity oxygen fuel (HVOF) process. In that technique, after sand blasting to roughen outer surface 33 of bit leg 17, a fine powder of the metallic alloy is discharged at a high velocity through a torch onto the steel surface. This process causes the powder droplets to deform or melt slightly as they strike the steel body 13, creating a mechanical bond.
Alternately a thermal spray process, could be used to cause the alloy of protective layer 35 to fuse with the steel of body 13, creating a metallurgical bond. A fusing process, however, would require more heat to be applied to body 13 than an HVOF process. Another process would be to melt by torch or arc a wire or powder of an anti-corrosive alloy, such as a nickel-based alloy, onto portions of the outer surface of bit leg 17.
In the embodiment of
Bit 11 of
The hardfacing may vary in location and pattern and in the example of
In the embodiment of
In the embodiment of
After applying protective layer 65, hardfacing is applied to bit leg 63 over portions of protective layer 65. In the example of
After hardfacing beads 69, 71, 73 and 75 are applied, cone 64 is placed on the bearing pin of bit leg 63 and balls 76 are inserted into ball plug hole 67. Ball plug 77 is installed in ball plug hole 67. The operator welds ball plug 77 in place with a weld 79. Weld 79 could be comprised of corrosion inhibiting materials. The assembled head sections 61 are then welded together to define the bit. Alternately, rather than apply protective layer 65 to the outer end of ball plug 77 before installation, a low temperature process, such as HVOF, could be used to apply protective layer to weld 79.
While the invention has been described in only a few embodiments, it should be apparent to those skilled in the art that it is not so limited but is susceptible to various changes without departing from the scope of the invention. For example, the outer surface of the bit leg could have pressed-in tungsten carbide compacts alone or in association with the hardfacing, of the outer surface could be free of both hardfacing and compacts. In the first instance, the corrosion resistant coating could cover the outer surface, but not the compacts and hardfacing; or it could also cover the compacts and hardfacing. In the second instance, the coating could coyer all or just a portion of the outer surface of the bit legs.

Trading down close to $3. Takeout at $4.35 - $4.75 should happen any day now. At least that will be some justice for the shorts. Maybe BAMA - but I suspect it will be someone we least expect. Bought a few shares today - more tomorrow.
I hope you are wrong also - but I have to agree with your sentiment. There was a nice 17K block go off at the close yesterday for 2.18. Let's hope this is a head fake but I sure don't like it based on past experience.
(Concerned with drop in price prior to earnings release?)
That's a big affirmative!
Tuesdays conference was opened with the question of how many investors had heard of CEMTREX before. I listened to the call. Only two attendees had even heard of the company so while the convertibles may have hurt the stock it remains that the company is not known by most investors. The company plans on changing this and that should be a significant change. The financial metrics of the company are excellent.
No. At the investors conference yesterday only 2 attendees had even heard of CEMTREX before yesterday. They are an unknown company but the company focus now is on getting the word out. With their revenue growth and track record for profitability I expect the pps back above $3 by the end of the year. Maybe even better if they have more knock out quarters coming up.

Fabulous realistic vibrator
Reviewed: 15 June 2016 by Julia@57, a Straight Married Female
I absolutely love this vibrator. It's my favourite toy. I bought one of these vibrators a couple of years ago and the motor recently 'died' on me, so I ordered a new vibrator.
Unfortunately, the vibrator that I received was making a very strange loud rattling noise. I contacted customer service and explained the problem and they dispatched a replacement to me as soon as possible.
Fantastic customer service from Lovehoney! The replacement was fine. I love the size and the jelly-like feel of this vibrator, and it hasn't got too greater a girth. As it's a G-spot vibtrator it's also perfect for clitorol stimulation because of where the motor is situated in the toy. I totally recommend this toy.
- Pros
- Realistic feel. Perfect length and girth and also great for clitoral stimulation.
- Cons
- Liked everything about it.
- Bottom line
- Fantastic - gives great orgasms.

Amazing big guy
Reviewed: 12 April 2016 by 258ash, a Straight Single Female
It looks big in the pictures, but when I got it I was kind of in shock - this guy is very girthy!
It's a very nice purple colour, just as the picture shows, and is nice and flexible (not too firm or sturdy). The dial at the bottom is also pretty sturdy and feels like it will last, unlike some other toys. Down to the vibrations, they are insane.
The vibrator itself is at the very tip of the head, so it makes for even better fun! It is also really, really quiet - I couldn't even hear it!
The veins are great too and add an extra sensations when using it. However, the clit stimulators aren't that great (for intended use), but it makes holding this big guy so much easier! Love love love it!
- Pros
- Amazing vibrations. Super quite! Easy to use.
- Cons
- Nothing!
- Bottom line
- Quiet and powerful! Buy it.

In love
Reviewed: 15 February 2016 by Kirsty92, a Straight Single Female
This came in quickly discreetly as usual, which is always brilliant. Rushed it to my room and tried it out as soon as I bought the required batteries.
It came in a simple box with easy to read and understand instructions. I opened it and took out the item. It was beautiful! So flexible, large and a little heavy and everything I was looking for. Beautiful colours used and veiny with a lovely head for a realistic feel. The batteries were simple to insert and I was more excited to find out it was waterproof!
Now for the insert. I was so wet just from seeing it that I slipped it in without lube nice and easily (although I will suggest lubing up anyway).
It felt amazing, so big and a bit girthy compared to what I'm used to, but that's exactly what I was looking for.
Started it on the lowest setting and felt it buzz into life inside me. During my session I cranked up the settings, working my way up to full. Thankfully it wasn't loud at all, and so powerful.
After a nice teasing play I came to a very wet ending after several orgasms.
The power was so strong I screamed louder than I ever have, and had to clasp my hand to my mouth and silence myself.
After, I was sweating, panting, writhing and had after orgasm shocks for 20 minutes after gushing.
Even better, this was only £10 on the Lovehoney deal of the day, and this along with the size and colour was just a must-have and it works like a dream.
- Pros
- Everything, stunning colour, weighty and girthy, everything I was looking for.
- Cons
- Honestly, nothing to not like about it.
- Bottom line
- A bedroom must-have.

Laser North American and U.S. Singlehanded Champs start next week

Suggesting that talent knows no borders, up to 200 of the best singlehanded sailors in the Western Hemisphere will descend on Alamitos Bay Yacht Club for the combined 2014 Laser Class North American and U.S. Singlehanded Championships June 12-15.
Adults, juniors and masters, male and female, and members of the U.S. and Canadian national sailing teams and other competitors from Canada to the Caribbean and South America will race in three classes: Laser Full, Laser Radial and Radial 4.7.
They plan to run three races daily Thursday through Sunday on trapezoid courses inside or outside the Long Beach Harbor breakwater starting at noon each day, conditions permitting.
The fleets will include Brazil's Bruno Fontes, the world's fourth-ranked Laser Full sailor, and the top two Americans, Charles Buckingham and Chris Barnard of Newport Beach. Last month the latter won the 26-boat class in ABYC's Memorial Day Regatta.
Buckingham and Barnard also have been among US Sailing Team Sperry Top-Sider members participating in a spring training program at ABYC.
The U.S. Sailing Singlehanded Champions will receive the prestigious George D. O'Day trophy for men and Helen Willis Hanley trophy for women.
U.S. Sailing is taking a new tack to some of its championships. For the first time they will be integrated as part of a larger class event.
With the growth of one-design sailing in the U.S. and with ever more events in the sailing calendar, it became clear that the traditional qualifying series was limiting the number of sailors who could compete for the O'Day and Hanley trophies.
Liz Walker, US Sailing championship director, said, 'Our goal is to allow more people to have a chance to compete for these historic championships. As the Laser class is one of the largest singlehanded classes in the world, identifying the top U.S. singlehanded sailors this year through the North Americans is a natural fit.'
The men's Laser and the women's Laser Radial are Olympic class events; Laser 4.7 features youth participants.
The Laser, a Canadian designed dinghy, is the largest dinghy class in the world with more than 200,000 boats built.
