Details on Industry Insight.
Struggling Sport Chalet, an important industry customer, said today it has amended its loan agreement in a "positive step."
The change is more accommodating to Sport Chalet's operations in this difficult environment, CEO Craig Levra said.
Sport Chalet previously announced it is reviewing its strategic options as profits and sales continue to decline.
Here's the release:
Sport Chalet Enters Into a New Amendment to Loan Agreement
Monday March 2, 11:26 am ET
Waives Event of Default
Amends Borrowing Base, Covenants and Interest Rates
LOS ANGELES, March 2, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Sport Chalet, Inc. (NasdaqGM:SPCHA - News) (NasdaqGM:SPCHB - News) today announced that it has amended its credit facility with Bank of America, N.A. Under the terms of the amendment, Bank of America has waived the Company's existing event of default and certain potential defaults, and amended the borrowing base, certain financial covenants and interest rates, all as more fully described below. The seasonal revolver limits under the credit facility remain unchanged under the amendment.
Craig Levra, Chairman and CEO, stated, ``Bank of America has been very understanding of our business needs during these unprecedented economic times. The amended agreement is a very positive step because it is more accommodating to our operations in this difficult environment and it will allow us to refocus our attention on improving our top line results, working with our vendors to procure and market compelling merchandise, and launching our sportchalet.com website. We are also continuing to work closely with FTI Consulting who has played a key role in identifying opportunities to improve our operations by focusing on cost controls while maintaining the high levels of 'expert' service that our customers demand.'
Under the terms of the amendment, (i) Bank of America waived an existing event of default and certain potential defaults by the Company under its Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement and amended provisions of the Agreement relating to those potential defaults, (ii) the amount the Company can borrow against its borrowing base under its credit facility has been reduced by approximately 3% to between 61% and 66% of eligible inventory (varying from month to month), (iii) the interest rate has been increased from bank's prime rate plus 0.5% or LIBOR plus 2.5% (subject to reduction depending upon the Company's financial performance) to prime rate plus 2.0% or LIBOR plus 4.5%, (iv) the Company has agreed to maintain a minimum monthly EBITDA ranging from -$3.5 million to $5.6 million depending on the measurement date, and (v) the Company has agreed to continue to retain an acceptable turnaround professional until specified financial milestones are met. The Company's seasonal revolver limits remain unchanged, so that the credit facility continues to allow for advances up to $45 million from January 1st to August 31st and $70 million from September 1st to December 31st, subject to availability based on eligible inventory. The agreement expires in June 2012.
Mr. Levra concluded, ``As we continue to navigate this difficult economic environment, we have asked for and received tremendous help from all our partners across every spectrum of our business, from landlords and developers to merchandise vendors, IT vendors, accountants and attorneys, marketing partners, and most of all our world class employees. Next month, we will be celebrating Sport Chalet's 50th anniversary, and the steps we have taken with everyone's contribution better position us to work towards 50 more great years of supporting the specialty sporting goods needs of our customers.'

Photograph - Canvas
Macro photography (or photomacrography or macrography, and sometimes macrophotography), invented by Fritz Goro, is extreme close-up photography, usually of very small subjects, in which the size of the subject in the photograph is greater than life size (though macrophotography technically refers to the art of making very large photographs). By some definitions, a macro photograph is one in which the size of the subject on the negative or image sensor is life size or greater. However in other uses it refers to a finished photograph of a subject at greater than life size.
The ratio of the subject size on the film plane (or sensor plane) to the actual subject size is known as the reproduction ratio. Likewise, a macro lens is classically a lens capable of reproduction ratios greater than 1:1, although it often refers to any lens with a large reproduction ratio, despite rarely exceeding 1:1.
Apart from technical photography and film-based processes, where the size of the image on the negative or image sensor is the subject of discussion, the finished print or on-screen image more commonly lends a photograph its macro status. For example, when producing a 6x4 inch (15x10 cm) print using 135 format film or sensor, a life-size result is possible with a lens having only a 1:4 reproduction ratio.
Reproduction ratios much greater than 1:1 are considered to be photomicrography, often achieved with digital microscope (photomicrography should not be confused with microphotography, the art of making very small photographs, such as for microforms).
Due to advances in sensor technology, todays small-sensor digital cameras can rival the macro capabilities of a DSLR with a true macro lens, despite having a lower reproduction ratio, making macro photography more widely accessible at a lower cost. In the digital age, a "true" macro photograph can be more practically defined as a photograph with a vertical subject height of 24 mm or less.

Earlier this year, NVIDIA introduced the Maxwell architecture and a lot of upcoming features that Benchmark Reviews briefly talked about on the review of the GTX 980 by Olin Coles. These features were demonstrated in detail, but were still pending to be released on actual games, that is until Assassin's Creed Unity was released earlier this year. Thanks to NVIDIA GameWorks, game developers have the ability to use NVIDIA's sample libraries and SDKs as well as implementing some of the features mentioned that allow for a more realistic game-play experience.

Whether it is your go-to bag for shopping or a gift for someone, this simple and chic crossbody purse is a great bag for everyday of the year.
I am by no means an expert at crochet but I can follow a pattern, and luckily for me, there are many patterns available online. After an extensive search to find just the right one, I began making up the Super Slouch Hat by Crazy Sock Crochet.
I used one skein of Vanna's Choice worsted weight yarn, but you may need a second skein if you want to add more rows for extra 'slouch'. For an adult hat, you'll need 3 crochet hooks in various sizes: M (9.0mm), K (6.5mm) and J (6.0mm).
This hat starts with a magic loop, also known as an adjustable ring, and because the hat is crocheted in a round (a continuous spiral), it is useful to have a stitch marker to mark your first stitch on each round.
The pattern is clearly written and easy to follow. All hook changes are marked and suggestions are given about where to add extra rows if desired. I made this hat in just a couple of hours.
Finally, I always like to add a small piece of ribbon to the brim of my handmade hats as it gives a small personal touch to the finished item.
I used 1 skein of worsted weight yarn. You may need a second skein for extra slouch.

Score from 2275 reviews Very good
Location perfect. Good breakfast, reasonable price.
Very value for money, nice design, very clean and a good night sleep. This is what you expect from a good Hotel.
Room is a bit small but it's not really a problem for me
Good price, good place
There are no separate beds in double room. It doesn't matter if you order separate beds or queen-size bed - the same place might have 1 or 2 matrasses. But there will not be any distance between 2 beds.
Everything was good
It is a good hotel. It is near the reeperbahn but also you dont sleep on the street which is good. It is near the u metro line.
Location is away from the main places.
Nice design. Pleasant atmosphere. Room was small but efficient. Bathroom tiny but excellent shower. Bed very good. Takes a while to figure out where somethings are, ex. the light switches are so clever they are difficult. Breakfast good and compared to similar hotels very cheap. Wifi free and for 3 objects. It was exactly what we had expected. If you want more, like meeting rooms, fitness or other things then you have not read what this hotel offers, and you should have chosen another hotel.
Wifi is sometimes weak in room, I had less problems than my husband. No frig, but staff was very nice about giving us huge wine glasses with ice for the wine we brought. We paid for breakfast but absolutely anyone could walk into lobby and eat breakfast. Minor min. points.
very clean staff is friendly and professional close to metro station good breakfast
there are only sandwiches available for dinner
covenient location within walking distance ( even for a mature person with walking problems) of many tourist sights: reppehnbahn district, U3 metro station, harbor area for by boat sightseeing, the big michel church, the little michel (now a catholic church) etc.; ample breakfast; efficient check-in/check out; very helpful desk staff met our requests; cleanliness and quiet - ask for quiet room in the back. requests weremet
low, poor lighting in the big, large multipurpose hotel lobby/reception hall/ bar/breakfast....making the whole area very dark. arrive early to assure a space for your car in the garage. no reservation guaranteed for in-out use of car.
Central location and outstanding facilities. Clean rooms and free, fast wifi.
central location yet very peaceful. room not large but well designed and equipped. comfortable beds. excellent breakfast buffet and though hotel was full, could easily find table. very efficient friendly staff in restaurant and especially at Reception, helping with queries and extra info.
There was nothing negative.
Location, friendly staff
though the beds were comfortable, the bedroom was small, with little space for luggage and wardrobe. Breakfast facilities were very uncomfortable and crowded. Perhaps it was the wrong day, anyway we preferred not to have breakfast in the hotel.
Room was clean and basic but fully equipped, window had excellent view on St. Michaelis church and well insonorized (no traffic noise when closed) Bed was comfortable and towels big and clean. Great shower!
Anticipated payment, staff insisting to charging the breakfast which we did not want (good places in the neighborood to have quick breakfast or lunch). Location: quite central but not beautiful surroundings. Few places to hang aroung clothes, but for a few days it's OK.
We appreciated the relaxing fish on screen. Tasty sweets at the reception :)
I've been to Motel one before in Germany and Austria, perfect for me, modern, clean, comfort, great staff.
A bit far from the center but not a big deal.
good location, good price, very comfortable room and very clean.
For their price and service, there is really nothing to complain.
we enjoyed the stay at this Hotel for 3 Nights breakfast is very good very close to U Station , highly recommend this Hotel
no complains
Very good Location, nice and clean Room, great free Wifi, good Price (for Hamburg). We had Breakfast once, good value for the price (7.50e). Staff kind and helpful. We were really pleased, definitely coming back.
If there was a small fridge in the room it would be excellent. No soap provided, really strange for such a nice hotel.
Hotel is very busy , but staff are friendly and eager to help. Good AC and comfortable rooms, on the small side, but you get used to the space. Breakfast for 7.50 E is a great deal.
No phone in the room, a problem for foreign travellers with no local cell phones or even if one has an emergency in the room
The wifi was really poor in the room on the 6 floor,otherwise the hotel is great!
Everything for the price they are charging!
Nothing to mention
Location is great with walking distance to the Reeperbahn, city center and harbour. Nice, clean rooms
Good location as a home base.
AC in the main building wasn't working, although I was changed to another room in the secondary building with working AC.
My favorite hotel is Motel One
First time to see breakfast in the reception area.
Very nice staff good breakfast,close to city center
Very good location, great stuff, nice interior
No soap in the room :)
