(Update from Thursday, May 6th: According to our best guesstimate, we cleared $35,000 Wednesday night, so that the Dump Ministry can continue. Thanks to EVERYONE who gave, fasted and helped spread the word.)
Welcome to DUMP DAY 2011
This is a day that we stop to consider how blessed we are materially. A day we stop to be the "Good Samaritan" in the story Jesus told, choosing NOT to pass by on the other side of the road. We choose to help today. We choose to make a difference.
Today we are making a difference in the people who live, work and eat at the Tegucigalpa dump.
We are blessed people. We eat until we're full. We don't go to bed hungry. We live in homes that are MORE than adequate. We have an abundance of everything … food, clothing and "stuff." Please understand there's nothing wrong with being blessed with material things, but not sharing what we have is wrong! Just "realizing how blessed we are" is not enough. Feeling sorry for the hungry and the poor of this world is NOT what Jesus was looking for from us. Poor people don't need our sympathy or our pity, they need our compassion. The same compassion that the Good Samaritan had, one that took action. For me to sit back and simply say, "How sad," makes me no different than the Priest and Levite that passed on the other side.
So what are we going to do today?
Let's give a little. Any amount would be great. Here are two ways to give. You can give via snail mail by sending your check to:
Honduras Hope
Columbus MS, 39705 (attn: Dump Fund).
(This is a tax deductible donation)
Also give ONLINE,
You can give online by going to Bread For A Hungry World's website, and on the top right there's a "Give to the Dump" donation button. Bread for a Hungry World is helping partner in our work at the dump. They are going to add $5 per donor to each donation given. (This is also a tax deductible donation.)
I'm trying to encourage everyone to use one of these two forms of giving I just mentioned. I suggest the above link of Bread for a Hungry World because they will add to your donation. I'll also remind you that my Paypal button is always on this page, and while you're welcome to use it, please understand that my Paypal is NOT going to be a tax deductible donation.
If you donate today, we'd love to keep a running total of donations. So if you don't mind, leave a comment on this blog saying something like, "The Morgan family gives $100″, or your comment can be totally anonymous. That'll give us the ability to say, "We're currently at … "
Also don't forget that we have about 200 prints of this picture (16×24). If you'd like one that is signed and numbered by the artist, we'd like to give you one. We're asking for a $150 donation for a print and it'll be mailed to your home. It is essential that you include somewhere with your donation "I would like a print" along with your name and address.
PLEASE help spread the word today. Let everyone know (via Facebook, Twitter, blog, email, etc) what's going one. Encourage everyone to give.
"For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink… I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me." ~ Jesus
Thank you VERY much!

Lorena & Nick are getting married in September at the Roundhouse at Beacon Falls. I had the pleasure of shooting another wedding there this past November and just loved this rustic yet modern space! I'm excited to revisit this fantastic new venue and capture the special day for Lorena and Nick, who are just darling together, I might add. Since they live outside the city and would be coming in by train for the shoot anyway I suggested that I meet them at Grand Central and we go for a walk from there. I was so glad this was our plan as we had a bit of unexpected rain on this particular afternoon, but of course there is a ton to work with inside Grand Central Station and once outside we were able to do some shooting underneath overhangs and make our way to Bryant Park and Times Square for some shots once it was clear we wouldn't get too wet! I loved Lorena's pretty pink lace dress-- color this vibrant always makes a picture pop, don't you think? Check out some of my favorite shots from our shoot...

Mother Forces Toddler To Get Tattoo, Holds Him Down
May 30, 2014 9:07am PST
Sometimes you just have to wonder how society has taken a turn leading to the days we live in today. A mother only recently furthered wonderment as she not only forced her toddler to get a tattoo, but held him down during the process.
(See also: Ghetto Girls Fight Outside Club)
Despite the boy's agonizing screams, the tattoo artist continued his work and even enlisted the help of the boy's mother to hold his arm strategically. The boy cries in extreme discomfort as viewers can only wonder how this decision was ever made.
Would you ever do this to your child? Could you ever watch your child be in this much pain and allow for it to continue? Let us know what you thought of this bizarre video in a comment below.

Fokker--you're sick!
Wouldn't you know it--Fokker's head cold from last week seems to have made it into my crowded keppe (how did it fit?). I know that this is the big leagues (and in the bigs, we play in pain)...I just can't believe that the kid would do that to me. Martin never did that to me!
The early green was short lived and, after last week's slippage, that was to be expected. In the absence of overt positives, straight "up" would (most likely) have failed as the most recent trend was down (and that side of the tape needs to be probed). Getting the "test" out of the way doesn't mean we're going to rally--but it is certainly more bullish than a spike out of the gate.
I opined last week that S&P 810ish was a zone that, if reached sooner rather than later, intrigued me on the long side. I'm not sure if we get there--yet--but if we do, I may put a harness on Hoofy and let him try the bungee. That's admittedly an abstract thought as we're not there yet and we've got plenty on our plate in the meantime. One step at a time, kid.
The (oversold) financials have withstood the first test and the NYSE internals have edged to 3:2 winners over losers. The Nazz breadth isn't as sweet and, potentially, this portends an S's over N's day. It's still very early, mind you, but I'm looking for clues...any clues.
Ever see a tape in headlights? You're seeing it now and everyone is waiting for a direction to emerge before committing capital. I don't see anything compelling (yet) but my sense is that they'll get 'em down a bit and then we'll take a look.
Fare ye well.

SPREAD SPECTRUM SCREENING LLC, PLAINTIFF,v.EASTMAN KODAK COMPANY, ET AL., DEFENDANTS.
Spread Spectrum Screening LLC ("S3") commenced this action on February 18, 2010, alleging that Eastman Kodak Company ("Kodak") infringed its patent for a digital halftoning screen, United States Patent No. 5,689,623 ("the '623 patent"), by making, using and selling Kodak "Staccato" software products. (Docket ## 1, 181-11 at 2). Currently pending before this Court is a motion by Kodak to stay the litigation. (Docket # 181). Although S3 does not oppose a limited stay of certain aspects of the litigation, it opposes a stay of fact discovery. (Docket # 186).
For the reasons discussed below, Kodak's motion for a stay is granted, except that S3 shall be permitted to apply for the issuance of letters rogatory authorizing depositions of two witnesses who are Canadian citizens, Daniel Blondal and Lawrence Croft.
On February 18, 2010, S3 filed suit in the Northern District of Illinois against Kodak and four of Kodak's customers that are licensed users of the Staccato software. (Docket # 173-11 at 3). After being granted an extension of time to answer the complaint (Docket ## 25, 44), Kodak moved for a severance from the other defendants and to transfer the case to this district (Docket # 82). Kodak's motion was granted on September 1, 2010. (Docket # 167).
The district judge to whom the case was assigned in the Northern District of Illinois declined to stay discovery while Kodak's transfer motion was pending, and the parties thus began exchanging initial disclosures under the supervision of a magistrate judge pursuant to that court's local rules. (Docket # 108). On June 10, 2010, Kodak disclosed prior art to S3. (Docket # 186 at 11 n.12). On June 29, S3 served Kodak with document requests. (Id. at 6). On July 19, Kodak moved for an extension of time to respond to S3's interrogatories and requests for production (Docket # 154), and was granted extensions until August 18 to respond to S3's interrogatories and September 1 to respond to the requests for production (Docket # 159). Kodak did not produce the requested discovery by those deadlines. (Docket # 173). On September 1, 2010, the transfer motion was granted. (Docket # 160).
Kodak did not respond to S3's discovery requests even after the case was transferred to the Western District of New York, maintaining that the "prior orders of the Northern District of Illinois have no force before [the Western District of New York]." (Docket # 173-9). On December 6, 2010, S3 moved to compel Kodak's responses. (Docket # 173).
Ten days later, Kodak filed a petition for an ex parte reexamination with the United States Patent and Trademark Office ("PTO"). (Docket # 181-11 at 4). Shortly thereafter, on January 10, 2011, Kodak filed the instant motion to stay the lawsuit pending the PTO's determination of Kodak's petition for reexamination. (Docket # 181). The PTO granted Kodak's petition for reexamination on February 1, 2011, and thereafter preliminarily rejected all claims of the patent-in-suit. (Docket ## 188, Ex. J; 206; 207).
S3 opposes the requested stay in part, agreeing that the "claim scope-dependent aspects of the case"*fn1 should be stayed, but maintaining that fact discovery should proceed. (Docket # 186). S3 contends that a stay of discovery would reward Kodak's "serial delay" in this case. (Id. at 3).
On February 9, 2011, this Court held argument on S3's motion to compel and Kodak's motion to stay. (Docket # 196). This Court granted S3's motion to compel and reserved on Kodak's motion for a stay. (Docket # 194).
S3 opposes a complete stay and requests permission to take three depositions during the pendency of the PTO's reexamination "in order to preserve critical evidence." (Docket # 197 at 1). Specifically, S3 seeks to conduct a limited Rule 30(b)(6) deposition of Kodak and to depose two individuals, Daniel Blondal and Lawrence Croft, who, according to S3, "worked closely with [the '623 patent inventor] during Kodak's efforts to research and develop" the Staccato software ten years ago. (Id. at 3). Because the two named witnesses are Canadian citizens, S3 must apply for the issuance of letters rogatory in order to secure their testimony.*fn2
(Docket # 199 at 6). Kodak opposes permitting S3 to conduct the depositions, but does not oppose S3 applying for the letters rogatory so that the depositions may commence when the stay is lifted. (Docket # 202 at 1).
A. Applicable Legal Principles
The procedure for patent reexamination is established by statute in Title 35 of the United States Code. In pertinent part, the statute provides:
Any person at any time may file a request for reexamination by the [PTO] of any claim of a patent on the basis of any prior art cited under the provisions of section 301 of this title. . . . The request must set forth the pertinency and manner of applying cited prior art to every claim for which reexamination is requested.
35 U.S.C. § 302, et seq. "One purpose of the reexamination procedure is to eliminate trial of the issue of patent claim validity (when the claim is cancelled by the [PTO]), or to facilitate trial of that issue by providing the district court with the expert view of the PTO (when a claim survives the reexamination proceeding)." Snyder Seed Corp. v. Scrypton Sys., Inc., 1999 WL 605701, *2 (W.D.N.Y. 1999) (internal citations omitted). "The procedure was intended 'to provide an inexpensive, expedient means of determining patent validity which, if available and practical, should be deferred to by the courts . . . ,' especially where the infringement litigation is in the early stages." Id. (citing Digital Magnetic Sys., Inc. v. Ansley, 1982 WL 52160, *1 (W.D. Okla. 1982)). Resort to the reexamination procedure should not be sanctioned through the issuance of a stay, however, where it is pursued for tactical advantage after substantial and costly discovery has been conducted or where trial is imminent. Id.
Although the commencement of reexamination proceedings does not operate as an automatic stay of federal court litigation involving identical claims, a district court retains the authority, pursuant to its inherent power to control and manage its docket, to stay an action pending the outcome of reexamination proceedings before the PTO. Ethicon, Inc. v. Quigg, 849 F.2d 1422, 1426-27 (Fed. Cir. 1988); Xerox Corp. v. 3Com Corp., 69 F. Supp. 2d 404, 406 (W.D.N.Y. 1999), appeal dismissed, 243 F.3d 554 (Fed. Cir. 2000). "A motion to stay an action pending the resolution of a related matter in the [PTO] is directed to the sound discretion of the court." Xerox Corp. v. 3Com Corp., 69 F. Supp. 2d at 406 (quoting Braintree Labs., Inc. v. Nephro-Tech., Inc., 1997 WL 94237 (D. Kan. 1997)). Neither party in this matter disputes the Court's authority to order a stay; rather, they dispute the extent to which the Court should exercise that authority.
Courts "routinely" issue stays pending the outcome of reexamination proceedings, particularly in cases where the litigants have not made substantial progress towards trial. See, e.g., Softview Computer Prods. Corp. v. Haworth, Inc., 2000 WL 1134471, *2 (S.D.N.Y. 2000) (collecting cases); see also Bausch & Lomb Inc. v. Alcon Labs., Inc., 914 F. Supp. 951, 953 (W.D.N.Y. 1996) (noting that "[b]ecause [] the PTO is considered to have expertise in deciding issues of patentability[,] many courts have preferred to postpone making final decisions on infringement until the PTO rules on issues before it").
Deferring determinations of patent validity to the PTO offers many advantages, including the following:
1. All prior art presented to the Court will have been first considered by the PTO, with its particular expertise.
2. Many discovery problems relating to prior art can be alleviated by the PTO examination.
3. In those cases resulting in effective invalidity of the patent, the suit will likely be dismissed.
4. The outcome of the reexamination may encourage a settlement without further use of the Court.
5. The record of the reexamination would likely be entered at trial, thereby reducing the complexity and length of the litigation.
6. Issues, defenses, and evidence will be more easily limited in pre-trial conferences after a reexamination.
7. The cost will likely be reduced for the parties and the Court.
Snyder Seed Corp., 1999 WL 605701 at *3 (quoting Emhart Indus., Inc. v. Sankyo Seiki Mfg. Co., 1987 WL 6314, *2 (N.D. Ill. 1987)); accord Card Tech. Corp. v. DataCard Corp., 2007 WL 551615, *3 (D. Minn. 2007); EchoStar Tech. Corp. v. TiVo, Inc., 2006 WL 2501494, *2 (E.D. Tex. 2006); Pegasus Dev. Corp. v. Directv, Inc., 2003 WL 21105073, *2 (D. Del. 2003); Perricone v. Unimed Nutritional Servs., Inc., 2002 WL 31075868, *1-2 (D. Conn. 2002); Softview Computer Prods. Corp. v. Haworth, Inc., 2000 WL 1134471 at *2.
Three factors generally deserve consideration in determining whether to stay a litigation pending reexamination by the PTO: (1) whether a stay would unduly prejudice or present a clear tactical disadvantage to the non-moving party; (2) whether a stay will simplify the issues in question and trial of the case; and (3) whether discovery is complete and whether a trial date has been set. Softview Computer Prods. Corp., 2000 WL 1134471 at *2; Xerox Corp., 69 F. Supp. 2d at 406 (citing Target Therapeutics, Inc. v. SciMed Life Sys., Inc., 1995 WL 20470 (N.D. Cal. 1995).
B. Analysis
Turning to the first factor, S3 claims that the witnesses' memories may fade further if fact discovery is stayed. (Docket # 186 at 6). Specifically, S3 argues that the two individual witnesses possess "critical evidence" that will be lost if their depositions are delayed. (Docket # 197 at 3). In addition, S3 contends that a complete stay will reward Kodak's dilatory conduct. (Docket # 186 at 12). Finally, S3 also argues that the length of time that the letters rogatory process takes to complete, which "may take a year or more," also weighs against the requested stay. (Docket # 197 at 4-6).
Of course, some prejudice to S3 is inherent in any delay, but delay alone is insufficient to prevent a stay. See Bausch & Lomb Inc. v. Alcon Labs., Inc., 914 F. Supp. at 953 (proceeding with the litigation could waste "time, resources, and significant efforts," whereas a stay causes only minimal prejudice and "promote[s] judicial economy"). In support of its contention that the two witnesses possess critical evidence, S3 represents that Blondal, Croft, and the inventor of the '623 patent were employed by the same company, Creo, Inc., at roughly the same time from 1998 through 2004, and that Blondal and Croft were subsequently employed by a Kodak subsidiary. (Docket # 197 at 2-3). S3 further contends that the three worked together at Creo "to synthesize the company's collective knowledge regarding the technological area of the patent-in-suit" and that Blondal and Croft are listed as inventors on two of Kodak's pending patent applications, which relate to digital halftone screening. (Id. at 3-4). This, without more, is insufficient to establish that their testimony is critical.
Nor has S3 demonstrated that Blondal and Croft's memories are more likely to fade over the course of the next year than has already occurred over the last decade. See Alltech, Inc. v. Agra-Partners, Ltd., 2007 WL 3120085, *2 (W.D. Ken. 2007) (finding "[t]he mere possibility that memories could fade [insufficient] to outweigh the benefits" of granting a stay); see also Allied Erecting and Dismantling Co., Inc. v. Genesis Equip. & Mfg., Inc., 2010 WL 3239001, *2 (N.D. Ohio 2010) (rejecting the assertion that "if a stay were granted, evidence may be lost, witnesses may die or relocate, or their memories may fade" as not "particularly likely").
Nonetheless, because the process of securing the letters rogatory can be lengthy, S3 should be permitted to apply for the issuance of the letters rogatory during the pendency of the stay, but may not conduct the depositions absent further order of the Court.
In addition, S3 has failed to demonstrate that it will be prejudiced if it is not permitted to conduct a 30(b)(6) deposition of Kodak. At oral argument, S3 contended that it sought corporate testimony on only three topics of the dozens of topics originally noticed.*fn3
(Docket # 199 at 41). This Court then directed S3 to identify those topics. (Id. at 45). S3 subsequently identified five topics as necessary to preserve critical evidence. (Docket # 197 at 7). A review of the listed topics reveals that they seek information regarding, inter alia, Kodak's knowledge of the patent-in-suit, including the persons involved and any meetings or discussions regarding the patent. S3 again contends only that witnesses' memories may fade, but the Court finds that this general concern does not justify such broad discovery before the completion of the reexamination proceedings.
Finally, I do not find that granting a stay will unfairly reward Kodak for dilatory conduct in this case. Although this Court concluded that Kodak was not justified in withholding discovery ordered by the district court in the Northern District of Illinois, that issue was addressed and remedied through an earlier motion to compel. Taking the record as a whole, I find no basis to conclude that Kodak filed its petition for reexamination in order to gain a tactical advantage in this litigation.
In sum, I find that the advantages resulting from the PTO's reexamination outweigh the disadvantages that result from the invariable delay occasioned by the requested stay. See Snyder Seed Corp., 1999 WL 605701 at *4 ("the benefits of a stay pending determination of defendant's requests for reexamination . . . outweigh any detriments to the parties caused by delay of court proceedings"). See also Procter & Gamble Co. v. Kraft Foods Global, Inc., 2007 WL 2990152, *1 (N.D. Cal. 2007) ("an inter partes reexamination can have no other effect but to streamline ongoing litigation" because such proceedings "impose estoppel restraints upon third-party requesters" under 35 U.S.C. § 315(c)*fn4 (internal quotation omitted), vacated on other grounds, 549 F.3d 842 (Fed. Cir. 2008).
The second factor -- whether a stay will simplify the issues in question and trial of the case -- also weighs in favor of the requested stay. Should the PTO determine that all or some of the patent claims at issue are invalid, that determination will conserve the resources of this Court and the litigants and simplify the issues before the Court. Conversely, should the PTO reaffirm the patent claims, the Court will benefit from its expert analysis of those claims and the prior art. See Bausch & Lomb Inc. v. Rexall Sundown, Inc., 554 F. Supp. 2d 386, 391 (W.D.N.Y. 2008); Softview Computer Prods. Corp., 2000 WL 1134471 at *3; Snyder Seed Corp., 1999 WL 605701 at *2.
The third factor -- whether discovery is complete and whether a trial date has been set -- plainly weighs in favor of the issuance of a stay. While document discovery has been undertaken, no other fact discovery has occurred. No Markman hearing has been scheduled, let alone conducted, and, of course, no trial date has been set. The early posture of this litigation thus supports the requested stay. See, e.g., Bausch & Lomb Inc. v. Rexall Sundown, Inc., 554 F. Supp. 2d at 388, 390 (granting stay where only "limited discovery" had occurred and "[s]ubstantial discovery and motion practice," including a Markman hearing, remained); Snyder Seed Corp., 1999 WL 605701 at *3 (granting stay where no scheduling order was yet entered).
On this record, I find that a stay is warranted in this case pending the PTO's reexamination proceedings. The Court will, however, permit S3 to apply for letters rogatory to secure the depositions of Blondal and Croft, although it may not conduct any authorized depositions absent further order of the Court.
For the reasons stated above, Kodak's motion for a stay (Docket # 181) is GRANTED until further order of the Court, except that S3 may apply for the issuance of letters rogatory to obtain the testimony of Daniel Blondal and Lawrence Croft.
Counsel for the parties are directed to contact this Court in writing within seven (7) days of a decision by the PTO on the pending reexamination proceeding to request a status conference.

|Spalding Gray: Ppl like him for some reason, but I've never met one. Seriously where do these people live, New York City? London? Theater people? Help me out.
Movie Review
Gray's Anatomy (1997)
d. Steven Soderbergh
Criterion Collection #618
During the first season of Mad Men, my ex and I picked up a copy of "The Buttoned Down Mind of Bob Newhart" on vinyl at the swap meet because there had been a reference to it on Mad Men. We both were vaguely familiar with the 80s sitcom Bob Newhart and whatever, but not fans. We listened, in horror, to the Buttoned Down Mind of Bob Newhart, both wondering the entire time what the fuck was supposed to even be funny about it.
I kind of got a similar vibe from Gray's Anatomy, which is a filmed version of a show by monologist Spalding Gray. For those who may be unfamiliar, Gray was a tall, thin white haired dude of staunch WASP blood, and he specialized in the monologue. His most notable success was the show/film Swimming to Cambodia, which made him a star of the 80s art film circuit.
Gray died in 2004, the apparent victim of a suicide (found floating in the East River.) Death and suicide permeate his work, Gray's Anatomy being no exception. He discusses his mothers suicide repeatedly, and makes reference to a history of family members not surviving past their early 50s.
Gray's Anatomy is about an eye condition Spalding Gray had, and the attendant anxiety that he felt and alternative health type measures he took in the hopes of avoiding surgery. The monologue is interspersed with documentary style interviews with 4-5 regular people who have dealt with 'eye issues.'
I've purposely avoided watching Swimming to Cambodia simply because of the monologue format, so I give myself high marks for sitting through this night mare fest. Monologues, I mean really. What the fuck, Criterion Collection?

Hyde Piper Story:
The Hyde Piper is a residential-turned-industrial pipe cleaning and repair firm located in Hyde County, North Carolina. While the firm was initially a residential pipe cleaning and repair company, it changed its emphasis and relocated to Texas after receiving more requests for industrial applications. The management of the firm includes Will Drayne (principal owner), Harris Tock (Chief Financial Officer), and Conlan DeWitt (the vice president of marketing). Before relocating to Texas the annual income of The Hyde Piper grossed to $1-2 million every year. However, since relocating to Texas and focusing on industrial applications, the company generates in excess of $50 million annually and has huge contracts with oil and gas refineries. Hyde Piper's Expansion:
As previously mentioned, the main reason for Hyde Piper's expansion and relocation to Texas from North Carolina was because of the huge number of requests for industrial applications that the company received. The expansion not only enabled the firm to generate huge income annually but it resulted in major contracts with oil and gas companies as well as enabling crews to travel nationally in order to service major metropolitan water systems. Moreover, through these expansion strategies, the company adopted cutting-edge technology to troubleshoot pipe interiors and identify cracks, leaks, and blockages easily. This contributed to the company's work being efficient and cost-effective.
Generally, the expansion of the Hyde Piper Company also increased overhead as its management developed a solid core of skilled workers in such a specialized industry. The development of the solid core employee base was also characterized by the decision by the owners to match the salaries offered by the firm's largest competitors. In March 1983, the company's principal owner was at the crossroads since his decision to match and even better competitors salary had not convinced his top crew manager to remain with the company. The top crew manager left the company arguing that his decision was motivated by opportunities for growth and interest in X-Act rather than money. In addition to interviewing candidates for the Chief Financial Officer position, the principal owner started to explore going public.
The Problem:
As the firm's owner had known for a long period of time that taking The Hyde Piper public was likely to occur because companies of national stature had little choice, he did not like losing control of the firm he had considered as his baby. While the company was not in any financial troubles, the decision to go public would offer opportunities for continued growth through providing funds that are necessary for pursuing important business acquisitions. Moreover, going public would enable the firm to provide stock options to high-ranking or top performing employees. The main problem for The Hyde Piper firm in its quest to go public due to the numerous advantages and benefits of an IPO was that the time was not right.
Even though the decision to go public was not out of desperation, the company needed to do so in order to promote continued growth of its operations. Since the timing of this decision was not appropriate, there was increased need to schedule for the Initial Public Offering when the time was suitable. The unsuitability of the time for the Initial Public Offering was based on various factors that were identified by the Chief Financial Officer.
Strategies used in the Inside Story:
An Initial Public Offering can be considered as with which companies that need capital for growth sell ownership stakes to investors who trust the future prospects of the company. In most case, this process usually involves the sale of the shares of the company's stock in relation to the established rules and regulations (Pott, 2000). There are numerous benefits associated with going public including exposure and prestige, facilitate acquisitions, enhance and diversify equity base, facilitate acquisitions, create several financing opportunities, promote cheaper access to capital, and attract and retain best employees and management. However, the ability of a firm to realize the benefits of going public is dependent on various factors including the timing of the IPO and the underlying economic conditions.
For The Hyde Piper Company, the main problem or issue associated with going public was the timing of the initiative. Consequently, the strategies that could help in resolving this issue was mainly associated with ensuring that the IPO was carried out at the right or appropriate time. In order to schedule the Initial Public Offering when the time was appropriate, the Chief Financial Officer, Harris Tock, employed various strategies. First, Tock positioned the firm as a company that would benefit from going public and as an attractive firm to investors. In order to create that perception, he advised the management to upgrade most of its equipment while maintaining its image as a technological leader. This strategy would help in demonstrating its financial strength and structure the balance sheet for an attractive IPO.
Secondly, the company's top management developed a formal plan as the backbone of the appeal for going public. Through this plan, the perfect hook for going public was provided by the contingency as the firm needed the investors to buy. Third, the firm worked on its operations through hiring a major accounting company to audit its finances for the previous three years since The Hyde Company's finances has been managed by CPA. In addition to helping the company organize and meet the standards needed by the public sector, the external audit would help determine the initial share price through providing accurate income figures. Moreover, the audit also enabled the top management to standardize record keeping and become thorough about financial accountability and reporting.
At the time when The Hyde Piper Company considered going public, Texas was experiencing a dismal economic environment that forced the firm to hold off and wait for a market upturn. The strategies adopted by the company to prepare for the IPO proved to be successful because of the significant benefits it brought to the firm when it finally carried out the IPO. Even though the stock did not sell out, it exceeded the minimum by some thousands of shares as the wise counsel by the Chief Financial Officer ensured a successful IPO. Through the IPO, the firm bought X-Act Solutions, made various vertical acquisitions, and satisfied the principal owners, employees, and investors.
Alternative Strategies for Preparing for an IPO:
For many companies and businesses, going public is more than an initiative of merely selling stock but a symbol to the business world that the firm has made it (Wasserman, 2010). As a result, undertaking an Initial Public Offering has been the ultimate goal for many entrepreneurial businesses and companies. However, if the IPO is not carried out at the right time or when the economic environment is dismal, companies can soon find themselves struggling to transit from the seemingly loose environment of being privately-held to a closely scrutinized and highly-regulated environment of a public company ("Prepare for an IPO," 2005). In order to ensure that the initiative is carried out at the right time and under favorable economic conditions, there are various strategies for preparing for an IPO.
For The Hyde Piper Company, the main strategies adopted under the shrewd counsel of its Chief Financial Officer were putting the right management in place, upgrading its financial reporting systems, and developing a draft prospectus as the backbone of going public. While these strategies were successful due to the numerous benefits they brought to the form, there are several alternative strategies the firm could have adopted. Some of the alternative strategies for The Hyde Piper Company include & #8230;.
Developing a Compelling Strategic Plan:
The first step in a successful and effective IPO value journey is a critical exercise in defining and determining success ("Top 10 IPO Readiness," 2008). The development of a compelling strategic plan for the IPO includes input from the firm's key stakeholders and executives regarding the operational, strategic, and financial initiatives that are required for the firm to go public. In this case, the strategic plan should be long-term i.e. At least 24 months before and after conducting the Initial Public Offering. In this case, the detailed plan shows how the company is prepared to perform in the glare of the public attention before and after going public ("Ready for the IPO Spotlight?" 2011). The compelling business plan provides a clear path for the firm regarding future prospects and direction that may be communicated to stakeholders.
This strategy could have contributed to better results for The Hyde Piper Company because it could have enabled the firm to implement crucial changes at an early stage in order to allow for the changes to season in the company. The compelling plan also contributes to better results because the pre-IPO planning is not mainly centered on the stock issue or narrowly focused. This is because it indicates the expansion capabilities of the private company upon full development and expected operations at the public level. The comprehensive plan is also beneficial because it enables the firm…[continue]

Does sovereign debt weaken economic growth? A Panel VAR analysis
We estimate a panel vector autoregressive model to analyze the highly disputed relationship between debt and growth. Using data on 20 developed countries, we find no evidence for a robust effect on debt to growth, even for higher levels of sovereign debt. We do find a significant negative reverse effect of growth to debt, which explains the negative correlation.

Scotland's first minister tells the summit that last year's vote was decisive
The Scottish National Party has no plans to promise another independence referendum before next year's Holyrood elections, Nicola Sturgeon says. The first minister's comments are likely to put her on a collision course with colleagues who want the commitment in the manifesto for next year's Scottish elections.
Ms Sturgeon told The Times CEO Summit yesterday that last year's referendum result was "decisive". She stressed that she accepted the result and added: "I'm not planning another referendum at the moment."
This would mark a departure for the SNP, which has promised a referendum in all four of the Scottish parliamentary elections held to date.
Some nationalists are already pushing for a rerun of the independence referendum, which was defeated by 55 per cent to 45 last September, and the issue is likely to come to a head at its party conference in October.
David Cameron told the same summit that he would not agree to a second Scottish independence referendum while he was prime minister. "I don't think it's necessary. It's a very clear result," he said.
Ms Sturgeon slapped down Angus MacNeil, the SNP MP, who said there would be another referendum before 2020. "He's not right because whether and when we have a referendum is not something that he and I can autocratically decide. That will come down to the will of people in Scotland," she said.
She warned her party that it could take many years before another vote was held, and stressed it was her decision, or that of "whoever is leader in the future" whether to offer a referendum in their manifesto.
"Whether another referendum ever takes place in Scotland will be determined by the democratic decision of voters in Scotland," she said. She highlighted an opinion poll by Survation published yesterday that suggested Scots still opposed independence by a margin of 52 per cent to 48 per cent.
Ms Sturgeon told her party not to get ahead of public opinion. "If the SNP propose that and public opinion in Scotland is passionately anti having another referendum or whether it's too soon or never want another referendum, it won't happen."
She also appeared to reject calls for the SNP to stand on a platform of demanding further devolution, with the threat of another referendum if the UK government refused to bow to the proposals. "I'm not going to have a manifesto that is full of threats or demands," she said. "This will be a manifesto for a Scottish government wanting to run Scotland with whatever powers we have."
