Best Uses
The pinata comes flat packed and you pop it open at home. It was very easy to use and fill. We used the pull string option to open it. It would have been very difficult to break open with the pinata bat for the 5-9 year olds at our party. It was very colorful.

North Sea Film Festival in the Netherlands
The Submarine Foundation is proud to announce the first Dutch festival dedicated specifically to underwater video, the North Sea Film Festival. Scheduled to be held at the Hague in the Netherlands from November 30 to December 2, 2007, the festival is currently accepting underwater-themed entries produced after 2005 in two categories of 60 minutes and 20 minutes maximum lengths.
Entry is free, and the deadline for submission is October 15. This is a great opportunity to showcase your work internationally - be sure to read the rules and registration details to submit your films.
BSoUP's International Focus On 07
The British Society of Underwater Photographers invites entries for its third International Focus On competition which is free and simple to enter and open to all underwater photographers. There is no theme although your single image must have been taken in an open water environment. Images that have finished first, second or third in previous national or international competitions will not be accepted.
Uniquely, the images in this competition will be judged by the votes of the entire audience of experienced underwater photographers at the Society's meeting on 15th August. The winner will join Wetpixel's Mike Veitch and Martyn Tomcik as winners of BSoUP's International Focus On trophy.
Nexus, Seacam, and Subal to support Canon EOS-1D Mark III
Recent discussion in the Wetpixel forums have suggested that the new 10.1 megapixel and 10fps Canon EOS-1D Mark III digital SLR will soon be supported by underwater housings from Nexus, Seacam, and Subal. Stephen Frink, the US distributor for Seacam, is hopeful that such a housing might be ready for display at the industry diving trade show DEMA in early November.
If the anticipated Canon EOS-1Ds Mark III maintains the same design, users of the housing would be able to easily transition between the two cameras, as is possible with the 1D/1Ds Mark II series.
Norbert Wu talks about insuring camera gear
Most serious underwater photographer hobbyists seem to purchase flood/loss insurance policies from DEPP or DAN, and it's easy to forget that the insurance world is a huge one, with a vast number of policies to choose from. Professional shooters sometimes need insurance policies that cater to their specific requirements, and one should also consider insurance policies other those offered by DEPP and DAN before making a decision on who to use. Cameraman and friend Norbert Wu has posted an insightful article on insurance policies, which is a must-read for anyone interested in how a pro decided which policy to use.
Underwater photographer Jim Watt passes away
Underwater photographer and dear friend Jim Watt passed away yesterday, July 19, 2007. In addition to being an incredible underwater shooter, Jim was a wonderful mentor for many of us in the underwater photography community.
A public service will be held in Kona, Hawaii, on Sunday, July 22, 2007. If you would like to contribute, Jim's family would like to commemorate Jim by contributing in his name to the Kona Hospital Foundation at 79-1019 Haukapila Street, Kealekekua HI 96750, (808) 322-4587.

SHARK-L writes letter of concern regarding Discovery's Shark Week
DivePhotoGuide.com has posted an open letter to the Discovery Network by SHARK-L, an international shark discussion list made up of "scientists, educators, media companies, and others," that opposes the content of Shark Week programming. The letter specifically draws attention to the continued "mindless man-eater" image, despite recent evidence to the contrary, and the lack of information about the finning crisis and depletion of shark species. Add your name to the letter and encourage the network to support shark conservation efforts during next year's Shark Week.
Luiz Rocha travels to Northwestern Hawaiian Islands
Wetpixel moderator Luiz Rocha is currently participating in a research expedition to the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands on the NOAA Ship Hi'ialakai. Over the past few days, he has been updating a travel journal discussion in the forums along each stop in the route, now including pictures of thousand-foot high island cliffs and groups of Galapagos sharks.
Luiz provides a unique look at an otherwise undisturbed ecosystem - the area is closed to the public and researchers are only granted access with specific permits. Follow his progress in the forum discussion or find the vessel's location with the NOAA Ship Tracker.
Seminar by Jason Bradley on Photoshop for underwater photographers
Professional underwater photographer Jason Bradley, who was previously featured on Wetpixel for his work with the TOPP elephant tagging research, will be conducting a beginning to intermediate Photoshop seminar at Backscatter on July 21, 2007.
Topics include achieving realistic blue water backgrounds, sharpening for screen and print, and dodging and burning with adjustment layers. Geared specifically towards the underwater photographer, and limited to a mere twelve people, the class promises personalized instruction and a great chance to learn the art of refining your images. For more information, or to sign up, view the seminar details.

2011 Dodge Nitro Detonator 4dr SUV (4.0L 6cyl 5A)
Amazing SUV!! Handles and dries great, very quiet comfortable cab. Its a head turner. Nothing but compliments from other people. I average about 19-22 MPG but i have added a cold air intake by mopar for more horsepower and better gas mileage. Tank usually lasts me about 350 miles. My children luv it.Car is more than worth the $$.
The infinity sound system sounds great. Also have the navigation and 30GB hard drive which is a well worth feature. No more bringing CDs or MP3 players with me. Remote start is nice to.
Theres always room for improvments on all cars but I think a little better gas mileage would be nice. But other than that this is an amazing SUV, especially for the price.

Finding places on water isn't a problem in the Charleston area. The trouble comes in landing properties that fit the purchaser's location, size and price needs.
"There's so much waterfront property, which is good," says Barbara Blitch, owner of Complete Real Estate.
Until recently, there weren't enough buyers who could afford many lake-, river- or creek-side homes and lots. But that's changing as the economy recovers.
"I think we are getting retired people. You've got (executives) like at Boeing; people (who) can afford luxury homes," says Blitch, who lists a house with dock on the Ashley River in North Charleston's Archdale neighborhood for $899,000.
"Waterfront properties are more desirable," she says.
House hunters across the Charleston area are checking out information, going to showings and otherwise investigating homes and lots along the ocean, rivers and streams - although not all of them are pulling the trigger to buy. Local Realtor comments back up an early 2014 survey by Sotheby's International Realty showing that 41 percent of high net-worth homeowners want to live on the waterfront.
Oliver Mathewes, Realtor with Carolina One Real Estate, says he can appreciate shoppers' heightened attraction with waterfront properties. He's marketing one-, two- and three-bedroom villas at Bohicket Marina Village with prices starting at $229,000.
"We had a slowdown with condominiums," he says. "The reason the market is down (relates to) disposal income." Such resort-like residences are second homes to many buyers, and they aren't willing to spend money right now unless the purchase is a necessity.
At Bohicket Marina Village, 50 percent of the condos are occupied. Mathewes says that's a decent figure. He says boating enthusiasts benefit from the condo village being next to a marina. "Prices aren't like 2009" at their peak, he says. But they're "coming back."
One segment that's struggling involves boat slips. "There was a big craze in the mid 2000s 'condominium-izing' boat slips." But in the Great Recession, boat sales plummeted and slip sales followed course. "Why buy the boat slip if you don't have the boat anymore," he says. Today, he's marketing 37- to 50-foot slips to buy for $39,000 apiece, less than half their $89,000 original prices.
Mathewes foresees boat slip and waterfont property prices rebounding. "I think like everything it's in cycles."
The Lowcountry real estate market's fully bounced back in some price points. "In Charleston, anything under $200,000 is flying of the shelves," Mathewes says. It's similar in Berkeley and Dorchester counties under $150,000.
"The economy in Charleston's doing pretty good," he says. At the same time, there's an influx of residents from other states, including areas that aren't experiencing the housing rebound. Waterfront properties should see prices move up "obviously, as the income picks up (from out-of-state)," he says.
Blitch, too, foresees rising prices for homes, townhomes and condos on the water. "I can't say they are going up (now)," she says. But prices have stabilized and homeowners can expect higher prices for their homes, "if they can hang in there."
Waterside properties can be found in most every sector of the Charleston area and beyond, although are more common at the ocean; local, Midlands and Upstate lakes; and larger rivers.
The Reserve at Lake Keowee in the Upstate, for instance, is expanding its marketing reach as far as the Lowcountry with two new lakefront neighborhoods.
"To say these properties are special would be doing them a disservice," says Rutledge Livingston, director of sales at Sunset-based The Reserve at Lake Keowee. "They are ample in size, fairly priced and have a second-to-none view. You couldn't ask for a better backdrop for a family lakehouse, getaway or investment property," he says. "We do not expect these to stay on the market long."
Marinas, meanwhile, are open on Johns Island, James Island, Isle of Palms, Seabrook Island, Mount Pleasant, Charleston and North Charleston and many other lake and waterfront resorts throughout the state.

The department is pleased to offer the following courses:
WTNG 270: Travel Writing
Dr. Kate Mele TTH 9:30 -10:50 & 11:00-12:20
Like so many travel writers who have taken up residence in the places they write about, students in this course will tell the story of their home away from home: Bristol, RI. Bristol's history, culture, natural environment, and favorite pastimes will serve as the sites of exploration and inspiration for travel pieces that inform, persuade, and reflect.
What do we need to know to become travel writers? Travel writing is a type of professional writing that has public ends—and it takes many forms, so we need to study those forms, or genres. And we need to develop a particular ethos because travel writers are researchers, explorers, observers, and participants. We need to be curious and adventurous, and we need to be responsible to our readers and those we write about. Travel writers are serious about their craft, too, so we need learn how best to make use of writing process and rhetorical knowledge to create appealing texts.
Travel writers breathe life into the world through words and images for readers who ask what is this place really like? Our goal is to answer this question for prospective RWU students and their families by creating a variety of documents that are well researched, accurate, imaginative, and personable. We will showcase these documents during the last week of class at the Celebration of Writing sponsored by the Department of Writing Studies, Rhetoric, and Composition.
WTNG 301: The Rhetoric of Narrative
Dr. Christian Pulver T/TH 12:30-01:50PM
This course explores storytelling as a rhetorical act that functions to persuade others, build knowledge, fashion identities, and create audiences. Students learn to use rhetorical concepts like ethos and identification to interpret a variety of narratives – such as fables, fairy tales, and parables; white papers, constitutions, and other claims to political autonomy; testimony taken from war crimes trials, tribunals, and truth commissions; literacy narratives; and their own family stories. Throughout this course of study, students have opportunities to critically reflect upon and write about narratives that have shaped their own identities and/or moved them to action.
WTNG 311: Technical Writing
Dr. Mel Topf T/TH 11:00am-12:20pm
Students will apply fundamental concepts of effective technical writing that will prepare them for writing in industry, government and other professional contexts in which technical documents help achieve major goals. Focus will be on a major social or political issue. The technical writer, far from merely transferring technical information, must make judgments about his or her discourse community, purpose, and rhetorical situation. Students will study key principles of rhetorical theory, the idea of genre, and the concept of a professional audience. Technical documents studies may include feasibility studies, proposals, progress reports, and policy statement.
WTNG 320: Writing for Business Organizations
Dr. Paul Bender MWF 10:00-10:50am & MWF 11:00-11:50pm
This course explores the causes of the success or failure of writing for business organizations. The course takes a case-based approach, with a focus on college and university divestment from fossil fuels. Students will study the theory and practice of business writing as a pragmatic effort to accomplish specific goals. Included are the study of genres of business documents, ethical and social problems, the causes and consequences of writing failures, and the problems addressing the interests of business readers as a discourse community.
WTNG 321: Multimodal Writing in Public Spheres
Dr. Dahliani Reynolds M/Th 3:30-4:50 & M/Th 2:00-3:20
This course challenges traditional conceptions of what a writing class looks like. Through using a variety of methods for rhetorical expression — including visual, auditory, and digital, as well as textual — the course aims to teach students how to teach themselves the multimodal tools to more effectively communicate to a broad spectrum of public audiences. Writers write for public audiences for a number of reasons: to advance the work of the nonprofit sector, to inform a public audience about a communal issue, to prompt others to take action or effect change, and to educate an audience about public policy. Whatever the motivation, writing for the public demands an awareness of audience needs, an understanding of the rhetorical situation, and a fluent command of appropriate writing conventions across a variety of media platforms. As writing in public spheres is produced across a variety of media—from blogs to tweets to visual images to print-based texts—we will produce and analyze multimodal compositions meant to accomplish a specific outcome for a particular audience. Our work in this class, then, will be to explore the theoretical, rhetorical, and ethical considerations of writing in public spheres through learning about and making use of a variety of rhetorical concepts and media platforms.
Note: previous experience with digital or multimodal composing not required.

Hometown: Salem, VA
March 10, 2012
I've been climbing for 12 years, lead sport to 5.8, trad to 5.7 and will follow 5.10-5.11. I've had the pleasure of climbing a number of places in Europe and the US outdoors, and there was a very good indoor wall 5mins from my home for the past couple years. I also grew up along the Blue Ridge mountains in south of the US and enjoyed hiking there, which has carried on ever since.
Climbing indoor and outside, bouldering, hiking and I'd enjoy getting into trail running.
I'm in my 40s, married with two kids (16, 21). My family will come over to HK in the summer.
I arrived in HK in Feb 2012. My passion is climbing and I love to be outdoors. I from the New York metro area and The Gunks was my 'local' crag. I'm looking forward to exploring HK rocks and trails! My family and I loved in London for 5 years as well

Capitol Peak
Favorite thing: Capitol Peak is one of Colorado's fourteeners. Its 8 miles to the top. The first 6 miles or so to capitol lake cross through a valley. The last few miles are more strenuous and the last few hundred feet can actually require technical climbing skills.
Mount Sopris
Favorite thing: One of the "smaller" mountains in Colorado, Mt. Sopris is just under 13,000 feet in elevation. It is a 6 mile hike from Dinkle Lake at the end of Forest Road 311 . It is a 4 mile climb to Thomas Lakes and then another 2 miles and 2,700 feet in elevation gain to the summit.

Favorite thing: An easy hike through the forest and wildflowers. Maroon Creek trail begins in the Marroon Creek parking lot and ends at East Maroon Portal. It is 3 miles or so total. There is a bus available to take you back to the parking lot.
Mountain Facts!
Favorite thing: DESCRIPTIONS OF THE MOUNTAINS
There are 4 mountains that make up Aspen Skiing Company running in the order given from south to north. Ajax, Aspen Highlands, Tiehack/Buttermilk, and Snowmass.
All the mountains are easy to get to by a FREE transportation shuttle that runs between them and the town of Aspen, (see my transportation page.)
AJAX : (Intermediate/Expert Mostly)
This is the main mountain which you see in most Aspen photos towering over the town.
Ajax offers aggressive skiers all they could wish for; 675 acres of steeps, trees, and bumps. It's not a mountain for the faint of heart, there's hardly a green trail to be found. If you do have the experience, and guts, head here, the views of the town below are excellent. Also, you must have a mid mountain lunch at Bonnie's (970-925-1220). They have the greatest chili, and sitting out on their two tiered deck sipping a glass of wine in the spring sunshine is sheer nirvana.
P.S. No snowboarding allowed here, this is for skiers only! Also, this mountain will definitely test your skiing skills. Don't bring grandma or the kids here unless they're kamakazees, or highly skilled.
BUTTERMILK/TIEHACK: (Mostly Beginner and Advanced Beginner/Intermediate)
Smooth groomed runs are what you'll find here at Aspen's kinder, gentler ski area. It has wide runs and mellow pitches. It's a beginner's paradise. Snowboarders will also want to head here. This is where the Winter X games take place, and they leave all the rails, terrain parks and music filled half-pipes in excellent condition for the remainder of the season. For lunch, head to The Cliffhouse atop Buttermilk Mountain, which has a wonderful "Mongolian Barbeque". You choose items from a salad bar-type line stocked with a variety of sliced meats, vegetables, seafood, tofu and varying accompaniments. Then you top your selections with a choice of sauces, from ginger to garlic and hand the contents of the bowl to a chef who quickly stir-fries the ingredients to perfection.
Fondest memory: ASPEN HIGHLANDS: (Advanced Beginner, Mostly Intermediate, Expert)
Initially owned by Harvard, (a donation from an alumni), the highlands were sold to Aspen Skiing Company, and have been undergoing a major base revamping over the past couple of years. Now completed, the Ritz Carlton has opened a beautiful ski-in/out lodge at the base, and there are several new shops and restaurants worth checking out. The Highlands are considered one of local's favorites, as well as mine. This mountain has plenty of intermediate terrain, and is the most un-crowded of the four mountains, (even at the busiest times of year). There are breathtaking steeps, tree-skiing, and extreme out-of-bounds terrain.
Cloud Nine Alpine Bistro, located on Aspen Highlands beneath the summit of the Cloud Nine high-speed quad is a great place for lunch. You can have a gourmet meal or a self-serve lunch at the Cloud Nine Soup Bowl. This intimate warming hut has picnic bench seating, TV, music while serving delicious soups du jour and grill-your-own food items.
SNOWMASS: (All Experience levels)
Combines all of the other mountains into one. It's big! Actually four mini-mountains make up Snowmass: Elk Camp, High Alpine, Big Burn and Sam's Knob. Whether you're an expert or beginner, contented cruiser or boarder, you will find something here. Unfortunately, because of the wonderfully varied terrain there is a problem with crowds. The mountain's design seems to funnel everyone down to one area, so stay away from peak arrival and departure periods.
To get to the best terrain with light crowds, immediately head to the farthest left portion of the mountain; Elk Camp. It will take you a while going lift to lift, but this is the place to be, just make sure you allow enough time to return to the base at the end of the day. Lifts close at 3:30 pm. In Elk Camp, you must have lunch at Cafe Suzanne. They have a wonderfully large sundeck, and serve a variety of great soups, burgers,salads, etc.

Favorite thing: Visit the Maroon Bells. To me, these beautiful mountains are the essence of deep country Colorado. You literally feel like you are on a Rocky Mountain High when you see them.

Favorite thing: Have a walk in the realxed Aspen town.
Fondest memory: Located high in the Rocky Mountains at an elevation of 7,815 feet, Aspen sits 200 miles southwest of Denver. With about 6,300 year-round residents, it's a unique community, surrounded by the White River National Forest in the Roaring Fork Valley.
American Lake Trail
Favorite thing: A 6 mile trail to a beautiful alpine lake. The trail passes through meadows of wildflowers, in the summer anyway. In May, the flowers have yet to bloom, but it was still a nice hike,

Will this fit a Traxxas Slash 2WD?
This would not be a direct fit on a Slash since its for a 200mm touring car chassis. The wheelbase of this body is 266mm and the slash has a wheelbase of 335mm, so this would not work.

Manny Pacquiao Proves That He Still Has A lot Left
By Luis Sandoval
MGM Grand, Las Vegas - Manny Pacquiao (56-5-2, 38KOs) had a lot to lose in his fight Saturday night but he set the record straight and redeemed himself by outpointing a game Timothy Bradley (31-1, 12KOs) with a wide unanimous decision victory with scores of 118-110 and 116-112 twice.
While their first right was marred in controversy with Bradley being awarded a split decision win, their second affair ended with a definitive victory for Pacquiao who avenged his loss from two years ago. Manny not only recovered his WBO Welterweight title with his win but also kept himself at the top of the division as he beat an undefeated champion in his prime.
Both men had vowed to be aggressive with Bradley going as far as saying the fight wouldn't go the distance and early on, they both made good on their promise.
The first round started off slow with a jabbing contest and both men were throwing but nothing significant was landing. In the 2nd round however, another slow start quickly turned into a shootout as Pacquiao landed a straight left that appeared to momentarily hurt Bradley. Pacquiao immediately followed up with another left as a stunned Bradley immediately tried to fire back and landed right hands of his own. Both men traded violently as they provided plenty of action in comparison to this point in their first bout.
The action continued in the third as Manny darted out of his corner and landed two solid straight left hands on his opponent. Once again both men took turns landing flush shots which drew cheers from the robust crowd. Manny unleashed a barrage of punches as Bradley did his best Keanu Reeves Matrix impression as he leaned back and moved his waist to avoid them.
Bradley to his credit came forward and looked to make it a fight and had success in the 4th stanza as his right hand landed on various occasions. Manny got hit plenty as Bradley seemed to be in rhythm and was continuously finding a home for his big shots.
At the half way point of the bout is when things took a drastic change. The same counter looping right hands and hooks that Bradley was connecting with earlier were now missing as Pacquiao did a good job of getting out of harm's way. The pace began to slow down and Tim's back began to touch the ropes as Manny flurried and even though not everything landed, Bradley wasn't firing back to score points.
The rope a dope tactic used by Bradley worked against him as it was Manny who was being more active. Even though Bradley invited Manny come inside and war, it was Pacquiao who was banking rounds with this activity and volume punching.
The fire fight from earlier still had shots being fired but a lot of thse shots did not land as often. Bradley looked spent going into the later rounds as a lot of energy was expended on loading up on missed punches as it appeared he was looking to land one big counter shot.
Pacquiao had promised to be aggressive and to his credit he continued to stalk Bradley throughout the rest of the fight and while it still wasn't the all out whirlwind from years ago, it was enough to deter his opponent.
By the championship rounds Pacquiao was in full control and it appeared Bradley needed to make good on his promise to knockout Pacquiao out to be able to secure a victory. Both men traded in the final round much to the delight of the fans.
The outcome of their fight would once again be determined by three ringside judges but this time, their decision was met with cheers as even Bradley himself applauded the verdict when it was announced. Bradley was handed the first official loss of his career as he lost his title and his chance at redemption.
In his ring post fight interview Bradley mentioned injuring his calf which mirrored his injury claim in his first fight with Pacquiao. Bradley limped his way to the podium at the post fight press conference but refused to talk further about his injury.
"I don't want to talk about it. I don't want to take anything from Pacquiao tonight. He fought a successful fight and I don't want to mention anything that happened to me" said Bradley.
Timothy was also gracious in defeat as he gave full credit to his opponent and swallowed his previous comments that Pacquiao had lost his fire.
"I have no excuses tonight. Pacquiao was the better man tonight. He showed what he's made of and dude still has it. Reason why I love Pacquiao so much is he never ducks an opponent and he's always willing to face the best and he faced one of the best tonight. He came out on top and Manny Pacquiao is the true champion".
As for Manny Pacquiao, he showed up late to the press conference due to the cut suffered in the last seconds of the 12th round which required around 30 stitches.
Pacquiao was glad to get his victory over Bradley and felt he fought an improved fighter.
"With this fight I'm satisfied. The Bradley that I fought 2 years ago is different. He improved a lot. He showed his toughness. We saw that in his last 2 fight with Marquez and Ruslan [Provodnikov]. Many times I hit him hard but he was still there" said Pacquiao to the media.
With Pacquiao winning, he will now await the winner of Juan Manuel Marquez vs Mike Alvarado which takes place May 17th. A Floyd Mayweather fight is still a possibility according to Top Rank Founder and CEO if both sides can sit down and come to an agreement. Arum did use some of his podium time to once again criticize Mayweather's upcoming May 3rd fight as it proves there is still no love lost between both sides.
Pacquiao will now take a much needed rest but he's glad he was able to accomplish his ultimate goal tonight.
"I had a lot to prove [in this fight] and that my journey in boxing will continue".

Digital Restrictions: FSF Campaign to Free Kindle Software
The Free Software Foundation started an online campaign in the Amazon forum to free the Kindle code. Supporters already number more than 650.
News came out mid-July that Amazon for the Kindle e-book reader erased certain books that were already bought from its customer accounts. The reason they gave was copyrights. Ironically the books pulled were George Orwell's 1984 and Animal Farm. The Free Software Foundation subsequently initiated a campaign on its Defectivebydesign.org project page for customers to vent their anger, with numerous readers responding.
The FSF counted more than 650 one-star reviews (the lowest rating) on Amazon's Kindle page based on their campaign. On July 22, Amazon founder and CEO Jeff Bezos issued an apology in response: "Our 'solution' to the problem was stupid, thoughtless, and painfully out of line with our principles."
The FSF wants to go further, though. The software activists intend to use their open campaign to achieve free availability of the Kindle e-book reader software. The foundation urges Kindle customers to continue the one-star review campaign and letters to the Amazon chief to urge him to make the Kindle code openly available.
According to the activists this is the third time Kindle customers have felt the Orwellian hand on their devices. In June, Amazon had retracted Ayn Rand's books and before that, deactivated text-to-speech for certain titles. FSF's Peter Brown prefers to use the definition "digital restrictions management" instead of digital rights management for the term DRM: "The real issue here is Amazon's use of DRM and proprietary software. They have unacceptable power over users, and actual respect necessitates more than an apology -- it requires abandoning DRM and releasing the Kindle's software as free software."

SANTA CLARA, Calif. – The San Francisco 49ers had 79 players in camp Sunday for their first workout. Missing in action: nose tackle Aubrayo Franklin, who has yet to sign his one-year tender of $7.003 million as the team's franchise player.
Where is Franklin? No one knows, but head coach Mike Singletary said he has no concerns that Franklin is staying in shape.
"That's the least of my concerns," Singletary said. "In terms of being in shape, one thing he has done is do a really tremendous job in the offseason. He really is an example that all our D-linemen have learned from, our young guys, seeing the work that you have to put in to be a good football player."
Franklin is seeking a new deal but isn't considered a holdout because he's not under contract. And although Singletary clearly wants everyone in camp, he has no argument with his player's decision to stay home.
"Aubrayo has to do what he thinks is best for him," Singletary said. "I'm not going to try and dictate one thing or another. I'm just going to let him do what he has to do, but at the same time, we're going to do what we have to do as a football team. But we will not sit back and say, 'Is he coming in today, is he coming in tomorrow?'"
Asked if Franklin risks losing his starting job if he arrives late, Singletary said, "We'll have to wait until that (day) comes."

Atlanta, GA (July 21, 1997) -- How would you like to buy a company
for the price of the cash in its coffers -- or less? What about software
maker WORKGROUPTECHNOLOGY CORP. (Nasdaq: WKGP), which went public
in June 1996 at $15 a share? It can now be had for about $4 a share despite
recently reporting $4.67 a share in cash on hand. Or check out COLLABORATIVE
CLINICALRESEARCH (Nasdaq: CCLR), another firm that went public in June
1996, at $13 1/2. It now trades at around $6 despite having about $5.73 per
share in cash and short-term investments. Neither company has substantial
current liabilities nor any long-term debt. Sound promising?
It is relatively easy to find small-cap companies that have recently gone
public but been beaten into the ground. Many at least appear to be low-risk
investments at their current prices. After all, cash and marketable securities
are nearly sure things when compared to other major assets. Inventories,
for example, may prove all but worthless; receivables might end up being
uncollectable; plant and equipment may rapidly lose their worth if technology
changes. Though value investors come in different stripes, many focus on
a company's book
value, which is basically all assets minus all liabilities. So when a
stock trades at a discount not just to its book value but also to the cash
component of that book value, a value investor should be interested.
Any significant wad of cash can help a struggling company through hard times,
and it's absolutely required by development stage companies burning money
while doing the R&D or marketing necessary to launch a new product. The
lucre on the books offers downside support, providing investors a bit of
insurance while waiting for a company to turn around or for a potential highflyer
to get off the ground. On the other hand, money in the bank doesn't tell
you much about what you really want to know: a firm's business prospects.
After all, you aren't likely to get much from trading your quarter for two
dimes and a nickel controlled by the chieftain of a troubled company. Better
to find a cash cow than simply an equivalent amount of someone else's cash.
Still, an investor in search of cash-rich value plays may want to take a
look at recent initial public offerings (IPOs). With hundreds of companies
going public each year, dozens will run smack into trouble shortly after
they hit the market. As they fall, they lose even their poorly developed
following. It's not at all unusual to see a new offering drop to a third
of the post-IPO price within the first year or so. Despite such difficulties,
many of these companies remain flush with money raised in the IPO. Finding
good values, then, becomes a matter of determining which companies can get
back on track and how much time the cash buys them to do so.
Ryan Jacob, research director for IPO Value Monitor, a New York research
firm that advises institutional clients, cautions about the odds of finding
such a diamond in the rough. "There are very few deep value plays in companies
that have been public for less than a year."
Jacob said that new issues trading near their cash levels are there for a
reason. "Usually people feel there's not much more value to the company than
the cash on the balance sheet. You really have to look at it on a case by
case basis, but you're looking at troubled companies or development stage
companies that are expected to burn through a lot of cash."
He bases his stock recommendations on a firm's earnings potential. Stocks
that have imploded, regardless of their cash levels, aren't a great place
to look for earnings potential. Jacob suggested that to go hunting for value
among this rubble would require really examining a company's business plan
to see if it's executable or determining whether a company's research has
potential value.
Marc Strausberg, founder of EDGAR
Online, offered a similar view. Once the editor of the now-defunct Livermore
Report, a newsletter that focused on short plays in the IPO market, Strausberg
once helped Carl Icahn make millions by betting against newly public companies.
He said balance sheets can be deceiving, especially for one-product companies.
"I would look beyond merely the cash involved, see if there's any viability
to the product."
He said that with many of the development stage drug companies, "You have
no clue about whether they have a commercially viable product." But Strausberg
also suggested that companies loaded with cash may look to use that money
to go into other businesses that may be more promising.
Prospecting for value in downtrodden new issues surely can be iffy. Overall,
IPOs underperform the market for years after their initial offerings, and
stocks that have dropped close to their cash levels are among the new issues
most likely to contribute to this underperformance. This overall poor showing
makes some sense. Underwriters usually price IPOs to allow for a 10% first
day pop in price. Most companies go public because they need money to build
the business or pay off debts, but most only do so when the current owners
think the market will award the shares an ample value. Factor in that first
day premium, and a new offering ought to be fully valued if the investment
bankers have served their corporate client as well as they should.
A stock that falls to half of its offering price has either not attracted
much aftermarket sponsorship from money managers that partake of IPOs, or
is a company that has run into unexpected trouble, forcing the market to
significantly re-price the stock. Neither bodes well for an investor finding
a genuine bargain among these ruins.
Still, all that cash can work like a siren's call, beckoning an investor
toward the rocks. The following odyssey represents a rather unscientific
sampling of mainly Nasdaq companies that have gone public over the last
18 months
and now trade at a discount to their IPO price; began with a market cap of
at least $30 million; have little or no debt; and are holding a lot of cash
as of their last quarterly earnings filing. In almost every case, it's fair
to assume the cash pile has been depleted a bit since the latest filing due
to continued losses, write-offs, or general corporate purposes. Also, we
haven't tracked developments at these firms at all. Some may have announced
new CEOs, new acquisitions, new business partners, you name it. And only
a few have both growing revenues and earnings. As a company's market cap
nears its cash position, chances are great that the company has reported
recent losses and perhaps no revenues at all.
Even so, be sure to plug your oarsmen's ears and lash your broker's number
to the mast lest you end crashed on the rocks among a pile of the rotting
dead. If you make it through safely, keep your cool and a coin handy in
preparation for your next choice: heads it's Scylla, tails Charybdis.

KlamAV brings Clam Anti-Virus to your KDE desktop
Linux may not be as virus-ready as Windows, but who wants to harbor pointless malware? Now you can hunt for viruses with KDE's KlamAV, a desktop front-end for the ClamAV Open Source virus protection system.
If you receive email and download files from untrusted sources, your computer can end up as a repository for malware. Although very few of these harmful payloads can actually damage a Linux system, these malevolent programs are still unnecessary, and, in some cases, you may run the risk of passing them on to Windows colleagues. It makes sense, therefore, to implement some form of virus protection. One of the great success stories of Open Source software is ClamAV, a signature-based virus filter for mail gateways originated by Tomasz Kojm and now supported by a growing community and a world-class update infrastructure. The goal of KlamAV is to bring the superb ClamAV virus detection system to the KDE desktop.
