"Really loved the easily personalized cards and the envelopes were good quality as well. My order arrived well before the promised date - an added bonus."
"As usual with Tinyprints, the quality of this card is exceptional. I was extremely happy with it and the turn around time was unbelievable. I ordered on a Sunday and it was on my doorstep on Tuesday. I ordered the blue version with the traditional rectangle shape and the solid blue back with three captioned pics. It looks fantastic! Almost too good to be true for the price, but that's why I love this company and order from them regularly. Also, I can't say enough about the customer service at Tinyprints. From my experience, It is one of the best companies for putting the customer first and making sure you are satisfied. I have been a customers for years and anytime I have had a problem with a finished product, the issue is resolved and a replacement immediately sent. And...they don't send my call out of the country and keep me on the phone for hours haggling over it. They are courteous, professional and efficient."
"I used this card for a Happy New Year card with a black and white photo. Used the Pearl White Shimmer paper and the results were exceptional. Very happy with the final product!"
"I liked having so many New Year's card choices with tinyprints. The Snowflake Serenity card was best for the photo I had. Classic design that showcased the photo."
"What a lovely, simple card. I picked the green/red option and sent them as my annual Christmas card. Photo quality, paper quality, expedited shipping and customer service were superb. I wish I could have put a tiny photo on the back but overall, lovely card. Will order from Tiny Prints again."

Most recently posted FAQ's
No, many of the companies that join AIM do not raise funds at the same time. This reflects the fact that companies join AIM for a variety of reasons. Some join in order to get a clearer valuation for their company or to raise their profile with investors, customers, suppliers and the media. Others may already have a strong balance sheet, and want to issue securities at some future point after their admission to AIM.
Your Nomad and broker will advise you on fundraising, and on the most appropriate methods of promoting your company's shares to the investment community. They will also be able to provide assistance in pricing your shares.
The process of joining AIM
Once a company has been admitted to AIM, the rules do not require it to produce further documentation or to issue shareholder circulars, unless it is undertaking a reverse takeover, undertaking a fundamental disposal or cancelling from the market. This makes AIM an especially efficient market for acquisitive companies. However, you should be aware that, in certain circumstances, AIM companies may have wider legal or other regulatory obligations that involve producing documentation. While an AIM company is required to announce new developments which may affect its share price without delay, the AIM rules do not require formal quarterly reporting − though companies are free to issue quarterly reports if they wish to do so.
Being an AIM company does not alter management's right to manage the business in the way it sees fit. However, as an AIM company you will certainly be subject to a higher degree of scrutiny by the market and the media than you were as a privately-owned company. In general, the board must be prepared to act for a public company and appropriate changes are made to ensure compliance with the AIM rules. The board should turn to the company's Nomad for guidance.
For reasons of independence, we are unable to recommend individual Nomad / Broker firms - however, to begin your selection, you can search for Nomads and brokers who have brought companies from your sector to the market, or look for those with a local presence.
It is crucial that you find advisers who understand your company and with whom you can have a good working relationship. Possible questions to ask them might include:
- What recent deals have you worked on?
- What experience do you have in our sector or country?
- Which market is most appropriate for our company?
- How will you manage our working relationship with you?
- Can we speak to some of your existing clients?
- How much will it cost us to float?
- What range of valuations should we expect?
Joining AIM for international companies
Being based out side the United Kingdom is no problem at all. AIM presents a particularly flexible and highly accessible environment for overseas companies. You do not need to be incorporated in the UK, and you can trade your shares in any freely-available currency.
Companies whose shares have already been traded on certain reputable markets around the − known as 'AIM Designated Markets' − for at least 18 months, may be eligible to use a simplified admission route to join AIM. Companies taking this 'fast track' route do not need to produce an AIM Admission Document. However, this option will need to be discussed with the Nomad.
Yes, your shares can be denominated and traded on AIM in any freely-available currency you choose.
Making the most of your AIM admission
Yes. The Media Centre at the London Stock Exchange's head office in the City of London offers companies the ultimate corporate event venue, complete with the latest state-of-the-art media and presentation technology. Available to hire for company results presentations and product launches, the Media Centre provides a convenient location for an AIM company's directors to give TV and radio interviews associated with their corporate event or announcement.
We organise many events to help AIM companies keep up to date with best practice in the market and provide them with an opportunity to meet other company directors. The key AIM event each year is the AIM conference which is held in June. We also run regular flotation seminars for companies considering joining our markets, as well as skills focussed training courses for directors of companies already on our markets, such as IR and Corporate Governance.
AIM Regulation
AIM is owned and operated by the London Stock Exchange in its capacity as a Recognised Investment Exchange under Part XVIII of the UK's Financial Services & Markets Act 2000 (FSMA 2000). AIM therefore falls within the definition of a Prescribed Market under FSMA 2000 and is subject to the UK market abuse regime. Under the directives that form the EU's Financial Services Action Plan, AIM is not a Regulated Market but instead falls within the classification of a Multilateral Trading Facility (MTF) as defined under the Markets in Financial Instruments Directive 2004 (MiFID).
Investing in AIM
RNS is the company news service from the London Stock Exchange, bringing company information to the global investment community quickly, securely and cost-effectively. Click here to find out how to subscribe to RNS.
Large investors in AIM
All the major institutions invest in AIM securities, and there are many specialist and tracker funds that focus on AIM. In addition, retail investors play a significant role in terms of secondary market trading, which is an important driver of liquidity in individual securities traded on the market.
General questions about AIM
Unfortunately the Exchange is no longer open to visitors. The major attraction for visitors was traditionally our trading market floor, but this was closed in 1986 when 'Big Bang' replaced open-outcry trading with a system of computers and telephones. In addition, the security aspects of operating a visitors' gallery had become too onerous.
AIM offers smaller growing companies from all countries and all sectors all the benefits of being traded on a world-class public market within a regulatory environment designed specifically for them. AIM is a flexible market with a simple admission process that allows more companies to experience life as a public company, and to capitalise on the resulting benefits for their businesses.

Patient Comments: Hoarseness - Causes
If known, what was the cause of your hoarseness? Please describe your experience.
Comment from: maria, 25-34 Female (Patient) Published: December 09
Two years ago in 2013 when Seahawks won the Super Bowl, my group of friends went to celebrate after the game and began our own little marching and yelling and screaming 'Sea Hawks'! I lost my voice ever since, and my voice never came back. My voice right now is very hoarse, husky, and raspy. When I tried to sing, when it is a little high note there is no voice. When I laugh it is different. My voice sounds like I'm a man and when I'm tired oh man, it gets worse. It has been over 2 1/2 years.
Comment from: keleee, 45-54 Female (Patient) Published: July 31
I have suffered with hoarseness for years. An ENT discovered by looking down my throat with a fiber optic camera that I have vocal cord polyps. He surgically removed one but two grew back! Now he just keeps an eye on them to make sure there is no sign of cancer. The polyps keep the vocal cords from touching so I can strain my voice by whispering! Also coughing can strain my voice.
Comment from: CyndiH, 55-64 Female (Patient) Published: April 23
I've developed what I believe is an allergy to something in fabric (I'm a quilter). After spending more than an hour in my sewing room or in my RV (recreational vehicle) working with fabric, I get hoarse. It's getting worse; I think I'm going to have to cut back on the time I spend quilting and seek medical help to verify what it is in the fabric that's causing my hoarseness.
Comment from: Mr. D-jay, 45-54 Male (Patient) Published: March 19
Well, I am a disc jockey/singer, and whenever I go on stage to sing, after two songs, my voice starts getting hoarse really fast. I don't drink alcohol or smoke cigarettes any more for over seven years now. I do drink a lot of cold drinks. I don't believe it is anything really serious. However, I need to know what kind of over the counter medicine or remedies I can take to help my voice on stage.
Comment from: JChilds, 45-54 Female (Patient) Published: October 13
I suffered from chronic hoarseness after I began teaching, but it would clear mid-year. After having mercury debris settle in my throat following a filling replacement I've been hoarse daily ever since.
Comment from: helper, 45-54 Female (Caregiver) Published: December 22
I treat my hoarseness with no talking, steam, anti-inflammatory medicines like Motrin three times a day, warm salt water gargles, tea with honey, fresh ginger root and lemon.
Comment from: margaux, 19-24 (Patient) Published: July 28
I'm working at a call center and I'm singing too, maybe I over use my voice that's why it causes hoarseness. It's been 8 months since I suffer from this kind of hoarseness in my voice, I can't sing a lot, and I can't use it well at my work. I'm too worried because I don't know how to get back my normal voice.
Comment from: lndwelch, 55-64 Female (Patient) Published: March 03
While vacationing I did a lot of snorkeling. After day one I developed a small mouth ulcer. Four days later I spent the whole day snorkeling, including a night snorkel with manta rays during which I inhaled a lot of salt water. That night my mouth was really sore and I had a sore throat, as well as couldn"t talk. The next day my mouth was covered in mouth ulcers - this was February 15th. It wasn"t getting better so on February 19th I saw a doctor who prescribed numbing medicine. The sore throat went away first - then the mouth sores finally cleared up the beginning of this week (Feb 24). The loss of voice and hoarseness are still with me and almost feels like it"s getting worse. Other than no voice I feel fine, no fever or soreness. I do have to clear my throat a lot because of a constant tickle.

A Queensland resort is one step closer to becoming Clive
Palmer's own Jurassic Park after the eccentric billionaire
put in an order for more than 100 mechanical dinosaurs.
The mining magnate, who is also building a replica Titanic,
already has a tyrannosaurus rex called Jeff and an omeisaurus
named Bones in his Palmer Coolum Resort on the Sunshine
Coast, north of Brisbane.
Mr Palmer says he ordered another 117 animatronic dinosaurs
from central China on Friday.
"If you've seen Jeff and Bones, well you haven't seen
anything yet," Mr Palmer said in a statement.
He said the new arrivals would include a 1200kg brachiosaurus
and a 7m tall mamenchisaurus - both tall plant-eating
The animals, which will be displayed in the woodlands around
the resort, will sway their tails, heave their chests and
blink, Mr Palmer said.
The exhibit is expected to be on display within months.
Jeff the T-rex's arrival caused a stir late last year, with
one Sunshine Coast councillor complaining the ambitious
dinosaur park plan would cheapen the resort.
Mr Palmer also hinted Jeff was named after deputy premier
Jeff Seeney, with whom he's had several political stoushes.

That can be the source of the point change. Look closely to that report purchase and the score that came with it. Does it say "Equifax Credit Score" next to the score or "FICO"?

Rated 5 out of 5�by Riley26 These shorts keep you relaxed, cool, and dry. This product makes long runs more enjoyable by preventing chafing which is every runner's worst nightmare. The day after buying these shorts I had one of the best, most enjoyable long runs of my entire life. Just wish they weren't so expensive that I had to shop from the kids section. July 20, 2016

Rated 4 out of 5�by H size runs a little big My daughter usually wears a medium in shorts, but had to drop down to a small in these. Love all the colors they come in. May 3, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5�by hazel27 AMAZING I absolutely love these shorts. I ordered the black and white for everyday reasons and they are so comfortable. They are a perfect length and have a every nice material inside. The only thing that does bother me is that they get rinkled towards the bottom when you wear them a lot, but if you just iron them softly it will go away! 5 out of 5 May 1, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5�by SAHMomCollegeville Awesome as always These are all my 11yo daughter wants to wear. She is really an adult XS, but these fit almost exactly the same - just an inch shorter. April 21, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5�by Sharon22 Good but I wish these were a little bit longer My preference w/Nike running shorts are that they are longer length. April 19, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5�by Mel23 Great Shorts! Great exercise shorts for girls, they fit true to size. April 19, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5�by tmtimpe Had to go buy another pair My daughter loves the way these shorts fit, and I like the coverage they have. We went back the next week and bough a 2nd pair! April 12, 2016

I'm in my first trimester and been waking up in the morning with a dry mouth and sore throat. I drink plenty of water before I sleep. Is it a pregnancy symptom?...
1st Trimester Sore Throat!

I started with a sore throat the other day...and now its a full blown cold...bummer
Happy Mommy to DS 9/13/2010 and DD 8/6/2013
I don't know if its a pregnancy sign, but my sinuses go crazy when I'm pregnant. The same thing happens to me in the morning. I try to sleep with air not so cold and a pillow under my chin so my mouth doesn't open and it seems to help. It sounds gross and very unsexy, I know! Between hormones and the weather changes I think anything can happen.
I have lots of extra snot while pregnant (they say all fluids increase) & also, due to thicker blood the nasal passages are smaller. All that leads to me breathing through my mouth more at night, which leads to dry mouth & sore throat.
Hope that helps.
A good thing to soothe sore throats that is natural is hot water with lemon & honey. Very comforting to a sore throat, though not so much help for a cough.
Mommy to Summer (7/9/09) and Kara (8/9/10).
Thanks for the advice ladies! Crossing my fingers so I hope I dont get sick...

ttc 2 1/2 years,
I am sorry to hear that. I hope it is a quick short thing adn you are feeling better soon. I started with a sore throat a couple of weeks ago, that lasted for a week, finally went to the doctor to make sure it wasn't strep and then ended up two days later with a horrible sinus infection, so bad the whole left side of my face is hurting. I have been suffering with that now for the past week. I stayed home from work Thurs. and Friday and could probably do the same tomorrow, but I have to get back. The awful thing is there is nothing you can really take to help. Hang in there!!!!
I would suggest using a humidifier and keep it wherever you are, esepecially when you are sleeping. That seemed to help a lot with the dryness.
Good Luck!

Ive noticed that in the mornings when I wake up I have a sore throat and dryness of the mouth. Not sure if this is due to my pregnancy!?!?!?! Feel free to add me as a friend. Trying to get to know more September mommies!

"Americans on Environment News: We Want More!"
"It may not come as much of a surprise that news on the environment drags far behind in popularity compared with, say, news on whether or not Lindsay Lohan wears a bra, but apparently Americans are beginning to realize there's a problem. According to results from a nationwide poll released Thursday, roughly 79 percent of Americans believe environmental news needs a drastic overhaul—both in terms of how much it's being covered and what's making up the conversation."

• Three children are described who have had myocarditis as part of juvenile rheumatoid arthritis (JRA). The diagnosis was established by the appearance of cardiomegaly or congestive heart failure or both in the absence of substantial pericardial effusion or extra cardiac cause. Myocarditis, in these cases, occurred on a background of severe, active systemic disease. No pathologic specimens from hearts of acute cases are available, but an autopsy specimen of one child who died after two months of treatment with high doses of steroids showed diffuse changes typical of the "dilated ventricle" type of cardiomyopathy. Treatment with high doses of adrenocorticosteroids has been rapidly successful in controlling the acute phase, while digoxin must be used with extreme care because of high incidence of toxicity to glycosides.

'Safe' no vote is transparent
Published: Thursday, April 1, 2010 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, March 31, 2010 at 4:37 p.m.
To The Editor: To our congressional representatives, but especially Rep. Heath Shuler:
The Times-News printed a front-page story this morning, "Congress clears health care bill." First of all, I want to thank you for voting against this ill-gotten, "victory for the American people." You, and we, know that is a lie. You, and we, know that you cast a "safe vote," with the knowledge that it was going to pass with or without your vote. You, and we, know that you would have voted the progressive party line if it had been necessary to save this piece of excrement. The story quotes you, "There is no question that our current health care system is broken ..."
When I see a quote such as the above, I am reminded of the foolish phrase, "I could have cared less," which means the opposite of the intended "I could 'not' have cared less."
Please explain exactly how you think our current health care system is broken, and how you think that putting the government in charge of it is going to fix it. You cannot, and we all know it. But your party is determined to bankrupt the country while trying.

Is America Losing Its Edge?
The United States' global primacy depends in large part on its ability to develop new technologies and industries faster than anyone else. For the last five decades, U.S. scientific innovation and technological entrepreneurship have ensured the country's economic prosperity and military power. It was Americans who invented and commercialized the semiconductor, the personal computer, and the Internet; other countries merely followed the U.S. lead.
Today, however, this technological edge-so long taken for granted-may be slipping, and the most serious challenge is coming from Asia. Through competitive tax policies, increased investment in research and development (R&D), and preferential policies for science and technology (S&T) personnel, Asian governments are improving the quality of their science and ensuring the exploitation of future innovations. The percentage of patents issued to and science journal articles published by scientists in China, Singapore, South Korea, and Taiwan is rising. Indian companies are quickly becoming the second-largest producers of application services in the world, developing, supplying, and managing database and other types of software for clients around the world. South Korea has rapidly eaten away at the U.S. advantage in the manufacture of computer chips and telecommunications software. And even China has made impressive gains in advanced technologies such as lasers, biotechnology, and advanced materials used in semiconductors, aerospace, and many other types of manufacturing.
Although the United States' technical dominance remains solid, the globalization of research and development is exerting considerable pressures on the American system. Indeed, as the United States is

Here's something from a real MORON who wants LEO's to shoot only arms and legs...
ALBANY -- A bill in the Assembly would change drastically police policy in New York State in the way officers use their weapons.
The bill, sponsored by Assemblywoman Annette Robinson (D-Bedford-Stuyvesant), would instruct police and peace officers to use their weapons only with the intent to stop and not to kill a person.
There is no justification for terminating another's life when a less extreme measure may accomplish the same objective, states a memo that accompanies the bill.
Officers would instead be instructed to try to shoot a suspect in the arm or the leg.
In recent years, the killing of criminal suspects by police has focused the public attention on how police respond when the suspect is a member of an ethnic minority, the memo states. The issue is highly controversial, with critics accusing the police of racism while supporters deny any racism and assert that the killings have been in good faith or an unfortunate mistake.
And officer who did kill with that intent would not be penalized, according to the proposed legislation.
Police work is guided by the use of force continuum.
Lethal force, according to the National Institute of Justice, should only be used if a suspect poses a serious threat to the officer or another individual.
I wish I had an Uzi when I went to high school and had to wait for a bus and take the subway in Bedford-Stuyvesant. That was 50 years ago. I'm sure it has gotten a lot better since then...NOT

Anybody consistently watched this guy pitch? He's sporting a 16+ K/9 after last inning's performance and his breaking ball is practically unhittable when locating his fastball. Reminds me a ton of Carlos Marmol of the Cubs in that he only throws two pitches yet they are both so effective you're constantly off balance.

niks nieuws voor mij jammer genoeg maar wel coolie joelie voor andere natuurlijk lol... zo te lezen gebruiken mensen deze techniek weinig dus des te beter : )
excellent piece of writing.
Looking good mate, very creative lighting ways here
hm...never tried to light up the renders, I should try that sometimes, thanks :]
Very insightful sir. A good technique that I'm sure a ton of people including myself, overlook. I'll have to remember this.

Thats really handy ^^

Great share man, thanks alot =]
i dont usually shadow my things like that either but great technique
Useful technique... although it seems an obvious thing to do I don't usually shadow or highlight my renders like that.
interesting ty for sharing. i was gonna ask you for a collab for a render i was working on that needed that kind of lighting
well if you still need my pro-skillz (kuch) we can always collab
u rock
very good tutorial man, maybe i will try it sometime
Interesting, but I never did that. I even rendered the elements with correct lighting in the model construction stage.
I know that it's possible to render all the lighting you want in a 3D program, but when I do that it doesn't turns out as I want it most of the time. And I love to brush lighting it's one of the funnest parts in making pieces imo
awesome!! thanks for sharing man

I'm building essentially a giant NAS box for personal experimentation, as a learning experience, and to help run some things. To accomplish this I have roughly 9 IDE hard drives that I need to power. This is all going into an old spare computer.
An issue though I'm running into is power. The power supply only has 4 molex connectors. While I have a spare power supply, I'm not going to be using my universities unlimited power forever, so I'm trying to make it at least somewhat power efficient by using only one power supply instead of two
My question is how many times can I plug a Y adapter into a molex before I ask too much from the power supply? I believe the PS is in the 300-400 watt range.
Bonus points if you can say how you can figure out if your power supply can handle that many hard drives.

I am using both the plugins "Random Posts" and "Simple Tags". Both are supposed to write their output to the feed, which is working without problems.
The only thing that I'd like to have changed is the order: at the moment, the random posts come first, then the tags - I want it the other way around.
In "Simple Tags", add_filter is used on the_content with priority "999993". I tried to set the random posts priority to "999999", which should put it AFTER the tag output, but that didn't work.
Any ideas?

This analysis of data from the Displaced Workers Surveys suggests that between the periods 1983-87 and 1993-97, although the likelihood of involuntary job loss declined among most age groups, including older workers, it rose for middle-aged and older workers relative to younger workers. Three potential explanations for this shift the authors investigate are changes in educational attainment, changes in the relationship between education and displacement, and industry shifts that had adverse effects on older workers relative to younger workers. The results of the analysis indicate that the relative displacement rate among college graduates increased over time, but there were few significant changes in the relationship between displacement and education within or across age groups. The probability of displacement increased significantly for workers in service-related industries across all age groups. The results do not conclusively indicate why older workers' relative risk of displacement increased but do rule out several possibilities. (Author's abstract.)

SANTA BARBARA, Calif. (AP) - Authorities are investigating whether a college freshman intentionally drove his car into a crowd of people near the school, killing four and wounding another person.
David Edward Attias, an 18-year-old student at the University of California, Santa Barbara, is scheduled to be arraigned Tuesday in Santa Barbara Superior Court in connection with the Friday crash.
He is being held without bail in the Santa Barbara County Jail for investigation of vehicular homicide and felony drunken driving.
"We are investigating the potential that it was an intentional act," said Santa Barbara County Sheriff's Lt. Mike Burridge.
Witnesses told police the car speed down a crowded street in the university community of Isla Vista late Friday, traveling at an estimated 60 to 65 mph. The vehicle sideswiped nine parked cars and struck five people walking along the street.
The driver shouted, "I am the Angel of Death," witnesses told police. Results of blood tests to detect drugs or alcohol won't be known for about a week. Killed in the crash were Nicholas Shaw Bourdakis and Christopher Edward Divis, both 20 and UCSB students; Ruth Dasha Golda Levy, 20, a Santa Barbara City College student; and Elie Israel, 27, of San Francisco.
Levy's older brother, Albert Arthur Levy, 27, remained in critical condition Sunday after undergoing multiple surgeries.
Attias suffered minor cuts and scratches.
Police at the Santa Barbara County Jail said Attias could not take a phone call from The Associated Press for comment.
Attias has the same Santa Monica address as Daniel Attias, a television director who has worked on "Ally McBeal" and "The Sopranos," the Los Angeles Times reported.
"We have no comment except for the terrible grief we feel for all the families involved," Daniel Attias told the Times.

I'm a web developer by day and a lot of the software I install on my computer (namely databases and web servers) come with an optional LaunchAgent to automate starting/stopping processes on boot. I'm wondering if there's a GUI for these types of services so I can use the LaunchAgent, then kill the services gracefully. Another great feature would be if I could turn off boot on launch and just use the LaunchAgent to start/stop a service as needed.
This seems to be exactly what you are looking for: LaunchControl
Lingon (MAS link)
It provides a nice GUI for creating daemons/agents, without writing plist file by yourself. You can also use it to delete daemons/agents that you don't want.
launchAgents are there to run in the background in conjunction with their respective Daemon, i.e. they have no GUI but you can load & unload them using terminal using:
"lanuchAgent's name" : enter the file name of the Agent you want to load/unload. /Library/launchAgents in OS X that is the default folder for Agents to load just replace unload with load
I found this article: https://foliovision.com/2014/01/os-x-scheduling-tools
Lingon looked very slick.

Mass. company to build solar array in Vt. townFebruary 02,2013CHARLOTTE- A Massachusetts company has received approval to build a solar array on a field in the Vermont town of Charlotte.
The Vermont Public Service Board recently approved the request by Charlotte Solar.
The Burlington Free Press reports (http://bfpne.ws/11cIBYk) the project, which was fought by neighbors, will occupy about 12.6 acres with 26 rows of solar panels. The panels will be about 10 feet high.
Bill Ellis, an attorney representing the neighbors, indicated then that it seemed the project was "predestined to be approved from the get-go."
Public Service Board Hearing Officer Jake Marren found that the project was consistent with the town plan.MORE IN This Just In

text: Leap Wireless Content on this page requires a newer version of Adobe Flash Player. An earnings short-squeeze play in the communications services complex is Leap Wireless ( LEAP), which is set to release numbers on Thursday after the market close. This company is a wireless communications carrier that offers digital wireless services in the U.S. under the Cricket brand. Wall Street analysts, on average, expect Leap Wireless to report revenue of $807.96 million on a loss of $1.11 per share. This company missed Wall Street estimates for the last four quarters in a row. During the last quarter, Leap Wireless missed estimates by 10 cents, reporting a loss of 90 cents per share versus a mean estimate of a net loss of 80 cents per share. This company has registered double-digit year-over-year percentage revenue growth for the past four quarters. The average growth during that timeframe was 25.2%. The current short interest as a percentage of the float for Leap Wireless is rather high at 12.8%. That means that out of the 48.80 million shares in the tradable float, 9.93 million are sold short by the bears. This is another low float stock with a decent short interest. Any good news that the bulls love could easily spark a big short-squeeze. From a technical perspective, LEAP is currently trading above its 50-day moving average and just below its 200-day moving average, which is neutral trendwise. This stock has uptrending strong during the last couple of months, rising from its low in October of $5.50 to its current price of just under $9.50 a share. That strong uptrend now sets up LEAP to trigger a big breakout post-earnings if the bulls get the news they're looking for. If you're bullish on LEAP, I would look for long-biased trades after they report if the stock can manage to break out above $9.69 to $10.68 with high-volume. Look for volume that's tracking in close to or above its three-month average volume of 1,799,730 shares. If we get that action, I expect LEAP to spike 15% or more since there's little overhead resistance on the stock until $13 to $15 a share. I would simply avoid LEAP or look for short-biased trades if after earnings this stock fails to break out and then takes out its 50-day moving average of $8.98 with volume. Target a drop back toward $8 to $7 a share if the bears hammer this lower post-earnings. Prev 4 of 6 Next

JKP fans will dig this Tyler Faith vehicle, though it's not the best this team has to offer.
Tyler Faith leads a strong cast through an array of equally strong scenes of wall-to-wall, ball-to-ball sex.
Tyler and Aria start things off with a band in a threeway bout with Lee Stone, sucking off the he-man like they're drinking from a hose on a summer day. He is soon bending them over the bathtub and boning them via missionary, with plenty of vag to mouth to keep thing exciting.
Asian cutie Charmaine Starr gets her labia chewed by Joey Ray in a bedroom bashing that finds her riding reverse cowgirl after getting a missionary stabbing.
Tyler returns in a girl-girl scene with Ashton Moore in which many-a dildo are employed before we cut to a heated banger between August and a lucky gent. Tyler continues her reign of sexuality in a girl-girl match with Honey that melts into an orgy when they are joined by two hunks in what turns out to be the best scene here.

After the Soviet Union successfully launched space as the first artificial satellite in orbit, the United States had two concurrent programs to launch their own. One of those programs was the Vanguard program.
The first Vanguard launch was originally set for September of 1957, but because of delays, the Sputnik 1 satellite of the Soviet Union became the first artificial satellite to orbit our planet on October 4th. The first attempted launch of a Vanguard satellite into orbit ended in a spectacular failure, exploding on the pad.
Vanguard 1 would end up being the second artificial satellite of the United States of America to orbit the earth, beaten by another American satellite, Explorer 1. Vanguard 1 was launched on March 17th, 1958. The satellite returned scientific data for several years through 1964.
Remarkably, unlike many other early satellites, Vanguard 1 is still in orbit around the Earth, although no longer functional.

CANADA: Seafood firm Clearwater books mixed 2013
By Katy Askew | 27 February 2014
Clearwater has booked a mixed set of results for 2013, with higher sales and operating profit but a drop in net earnings.
Sales rose to C$388.7m (US$349m) in the 12 months to 31 December, up from C$350.3m in the comparable period of last year. Operating profit was also up, the Canadian seafood group revealed, with EBITDA rising to C$79.1m from C$72.2m.
However, Clearwater saw net earnings fall to $15.2m, down from a profit of $22.7m in 2012.
The bottom line was hit by higher financing costs. But Clearwater was upbeat on the outlook for 2014 having secured a refinancing deal that included the issuance of 3.5m common shares. In total the group raised new finance of A$34m.
In the coming year, Clearwater expects sales growth of 5% or greater and ddjusted EBITDA margins of 18% or greater, the company said.
HALIFAX, Feb. 26, 2014 /CNW/ - (TSX: CLR):
- Sales and adjusted EBITDA growth of 10.9% and 9.5% in 2013, respectively
- Fourth quarter 2013 sales and adjusted EBITDA growth of 19.4% and 18.8%
- Growth of 50.6% in free cash flows to $26.1 million in 2013
- Free cash flows for the fourth quarter increased 2.4% to $38.7 million
- Declares quarterly dividend of $0.025 per share payable on March 24, 2014 to shareholders of record as of March 10, 2014.
- Management updates outlook for 2014 - sales growth of 5% or greater; growth in free cash flows of 5% or greater; and return on assets of 12% or greater
- On track to achieve five year plan of $500 million in revenue and $100 million in adjusted EBITDA by 2016
Fourth quarter 2013 results
Clearwater reported sales of $111.0 million and adjusted EBITDA1 of $22.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2013 versus 2012 comparative figures of $93.0 million and $18.8 million, reflecting growth of 19.4% and 18.8%, respectively. Free cash flows1 were $38.7 million versus $37.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2012, an increase of 2.4%. Margins improved 3.1 percentage points from 19.9% in 2012 to 23.1% for 2013.
Adjusted EBITDA increased due to strong market demand that resulted in an increase in sales volumes for scallops and shrimp, and improved sales prices for several species. Margins were partially offset by higher harvesting costs per pound for scallops and shrimp.
Free cash flow from operations for the fourth quarter of 2013 grew 9.1% from the same period in 2012 as a result of strong sales prices and volumes which contributed to improved margins. Improvements in free cash flow from operations were partially offset by higher capital expenditures from scheduled refits and vessel conversions, and the timing of payments to minority interest partners. Refer to the Management discussion and analysis for further information on free cash flow.
Annual 2013 results
Clearwater reported sales of $388.7 million and adjusted EBITDA1 of $79.1 million for 2013 versus 2012 comparative figures of $350.3 million and $72.2 million, reflecting growth of 10.9% and 9.5%, respectively. Results for free cash flow were $26.1 million in 2013 versus $17.3 million in 2012 an increase of 50.6%. Gross margins improved 1.8 percentage points, to 22.5% as compared with the same period in 2012.
Growth in adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow from operations were due to a strong and growing market demand that improved sales prices for scallops, clams and snow crab and strong sales volumes for scallops. Margins were partially offset by higher clam, scallops and shrimp harvest costs. Improvements in free cash flow from operations were partially offset by higher capital expenditures from scheduled refits and vessel conversions, and the timing of payments to minority interest partners.
Clearwater successfully met its annual 2013 profitability and financial performance targets of sales growth of 5% or greater; adjusted EBITDA margins of 18% or greater; and return on assets of 12% or greater.
On November 1, 2013 Clearwater announced the initiation of an annual dividend of $0.10 per share, payable in quarterly installments of $0.025 per share and on December 13, 2013 it made the first quarterly dividend payment.
Consistent with that announcement, today the Board of Directors approved a quarterly dividend of CAD$0.025 per share payable on March 24, 2014 to shareholders of record on March 10, 2014.
In making the determination of dividend levels Clearwater's Board gives consideration to a number of key principles including:
- the expected future earnings;
- the amount of free cash flows that should be retained to reinvest in the business;
- the assurance that all obligations can be met with respect to existing loan agreements; and
- the desire to provide room for the dividend to increase in the future as the business continues to grow and expand.
The Board is satisfied with current dividend levels.
These dividends are eligible dividends as defined for the purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada) and applicable provincial legislation and, therefore, qualify for the favourable tax treatment applicable to such dividends.
Clearwater's business experiences a seasonal pattern in which sales, margins and adjusted EBITDA are lower in the first half of the year while investments in capital expenditures and working capital are higher resulting in lower free cash flows in the first half of the year and higher free cash flows in the second half of the year.
Results for the fourth quarter and annual 2013 are consistent with Management's expectations for the year and show strong sales, margins and free cash flows.
Global demand for seafood is outpacing supply, creating favorable market dynamics for vertically integrated producers such as Clearwater which have strong resource access.
Demand has been driven by growing worldwide population, shifting consumer tastes towards healthier diets, and rising purchasing power of middle class consumers in emerging economies.
The supply of wild seafood is limited and is expected to continue to lag behind the growing global demand. This supply-demand imbalance has created a market place in which purchasers of seafood are increasingly willing to pay a premium to suppliers that can provide consistent quality and food safety, wide diversity and reliable delivery of premium, wild, sustainably harvested seafood.
Clearwater, like other vertically integrated seafood companies, is well positioned to take advantage of this opportunity because of its licenses, premium product quality, diversity of species, global sales footprint, and year-round harvest and delivery capability.
Ian Smith, Chief Executive Officer, commented, "In 2013 Clearwater surpassed all previous records for sales revenue and adjusted EBITDA."
Mr. Smith continued "We posted strong results across our portfolio of sustainably harvested, wild caught seafood with six out of seven core species showing increased revenues, margins or both. We also made significant improvements to our capital structure and advanced several major capital projects - activities critical to sustaining our long term growth, profitability and competitive advantage."
For 2014 Clearwater set the following targets:
- sales growth - 5% or greater,
- adjusted EBITDA margins - 18% or greater,
- Free cash flow growth - 5% or greater
- Leverage - 3x or lower
- return on assets - 12% or higher
