NEOCUTIS Bio-restorative Skin Cream, JOURNÉE Bio-restorative Day Cream, LUMIÈRE Bio-restorative Eye Cream and BIO-GEL Bio-restorative Hydrogel are the only products to contain PSP®.
Through years of research, physicians discovered fetal skin has a unique ability to heal wounds without scarring. Inspired by this, medical researchers at the University Hospital of Lausanne, Switzerland created a biotechnology process to extract the rich proteins responsible for scarless wound healing from cultured fetal skin cells. A dedicated cell bank was established for developing new skin treatments using a single biopsy of fetal skin. Originally established for wound healing and burn treatments, today this same cell bank also provides a lasting supply of cells for producing NEOCUTIS proprietary skin care ingredient Processed Skin Cell Proteins (PSP®).
PSP® provides the most complete and balanced combination of human growth factors and cytokines currently available.
PSP® – High Protein Skin Care
Simply the most advanced biotechnology for your skin
NEOCUTIS proprietary technology uses cultured fetal skin cells to obtain an optimal, naturally balanced mixture of skin nutrients including cytokines, growth factors and antioxidants. This mixture is called PSP®, which stands for 'Processed Skin Cell Proteins'.
Our skin is in permanent need for bio-restoration
Skin, one of our largest and most visible organs, establishes, controls and transmits contacts with the external world. Beyond the classical image of the skin as a barrier organ and providing physical resistance to mechanical stress, it operates as a huge and highly active biofactory in the synthesis, processing and metabolism of skin constituents including structural proteins, polysaccharides, lipids and a diversity of signaling molecules.

"To sit down in a muddy, wet field is quite something," says James' Tim Booth, grinning at his dutiful audience. All sat down. "We haven't had anyone sit down in 12 years." Latvia loves James. Who knew? The indie veterans played at the first Positivus five years ago to 4,000 revellers. The largest festival in the Baltics now attracts 20,000 people to this remote forest in Salacgriva (pop. 3,467), nestled next to the beach. It feels like Latitude by the sea, and the line-up is strong.
Tunng, the eccentric folktronica six-piece, deliver a joyous set, including the giddy "Hustle",and ending with the diminutive singer Becky Jacobs encouraging a "cockney singalong" to "Bullets"; the intimate gathering try their best. On the main stage, the dapper synth duo Hurts belt out their overwrought, self-pitying Eurovision-friendly anthems, including "Stay" and "Sunday". Their distinctive sound fills the space well. As does the Editors', a rock outfit who must wake up baffled every day that they haven't got Muse's career. Their set is muscular, building to a rousing finale with "Papillon" but they still lack a killer tune. An accusation you couldn't level at Mark Ronson. The DJ/pop Svengali is a revelation here, conducting his slick Business Intl band through a raft of sumptuous pop treats – the psychedelic "The Bike Song", "Oh My God" and "Valerie". For a former agnostic, this was something of a Ronson conversion.
On the smaller stage, there are two unexpected treats. The Danish indie outfit Alcoholic Faith Mission prove a heady blend of Arcade Fire and The Kissaway Trail, providing the second most memorable lyric of the weekend: "I get love from everyone but you" on "Got Love? Got Shellfish?". The most memorable comes courtesy of the refreshingly bonkers Estonian singer Iiris, who screeches "I'm married to a merman," before concluding "Merman don't exist really". Quite. The dreamy pop duo Beach House then serve up a gorgeous set centred around their exquisite third album, Teen Dream.
Festival stalwarts James, followed by Royksopp, bring this unpretentious festival to a close. Royksopp's ethereal, electronic shtick is a tad soulless, whereas James are all soul. Booth throws shapes like it's 1992 to such gems as "Getting Away with It", "Tomorrow" and "Laid". When it comes to killer anthems, James, one of Britain's most unsung bands, trounce their rivals here.

Microsoft is scheduled to release Windows Media Player 11 on Wednesday. This updated version of the software used to play music and video files has already been leaked to the Web, with a download available at Softpedia.
The folks at The Register say it's virus-free and works well (though it's packaged as a RAR file), but obviously, use at your own risk — or wait until Wednesday.
Chances are, you'll find the official version here when it's available.
I've tried the Windows Vista version of WMP11, which supposedly has a different feature set than what's coming Wednesday, which is designed for Windows XP Service Pack 2. You'll find an overhauled interface that's much easier to navigate, an excellent search feature that's very fast, as well as a zippy cataloguing system. Version 10 is notorious for bogging down when you have a lot of files to be sorted and listed, and this release fixes that, bigtime.
Chronicle screenshot
The Windows Vista version (Build 5308) of Media Player 11.
There's also the Urge music service, a partnership between Microsoft and MTV, which takes dead aim at Apple's iTunes by combining a music store with social networking. I suspect that will either be a.) incredibly compelling, b.) easy to ignore or b.) really, really irritating. We'll see . . .
Update: It's here.
Chronicle screenshot
Windows Media Player 11 beta for Windows XP.
Chronicle screenshot
The Urge music store, Microsoft's partnership with MTV.
Urge includes a separate download, on top of the 23-MB file to install Media Player. And, as Ed Bott notes here and here, it comes with its own license agreement that has some, um, interesting provisions . . . including alerting MTV if you try to tamper with the software, and adding new components or changing the software without your knowledge or consent. And, as is typical of most music services that make recommendations for new music, it will report back to its mothership about your listening habits.
The Software also includes automated features that collect information that uniquely allows the Software to automatically identify your computer and your system, the version of the Software in use and to manage some or all of the digital rights associated with Content. These features may be remotely activated in order to update security components used by the Software, including, without limitation, portions of the Windows Media Player associated with your use of Urge. These updates, modifications, re-installations and other modifications to the Software can occur periodically or when necessary and without any notice to you. . . .
The Software is also capable of monitoring itself to detect tampering or other security-related activities and has the ability to automatically transmit and communicate information about attempted tampering and other security incidents. The Software and certain applications that communicate with the Software may become restricted, de-activated or inoperable if you breach this EULA, any security or other rules or any of the digital rights applicable to the Content. You acknowledge and agree this can, and often shall, result in Content being unavailable to you.
If you install Urge as part of WMP11 and decide you'd rather not dance to that tune, the module does show up separately in the Add/Remove Programs module in the Windows XP Control Panel.
I'll play with it long enough to get a feel for how it all works, but unless Microsoft and MTV change this license, I'll probably lose the Urge after that.
Update 2.0: Urge has a set of blogs built around different genres of music, but they are blogs in name only. As far as I can tell, you can't link to them from outside the service, and there are no comments or trackbacks.
Memo to MTV: That's not a blog. That's a column.
Memo to Microsoft, and particularly Robert Scoble: You guys should know better.
Update 2.5: Scoble agrees.

It seems as if we have been attending a family reunion almost every weekend the past month. Of course, every new family reunion is another opportunity for me to bake up a tasty treat for my relatives. Those of you who have been following me on my Instagram have already had a sneak peek of these Easy Strawberry Lemonade Cookies and one other little sweet goodie I baked up a couple of weeks ago. It pays to give me a follow on Instagram. ;)
These cookies are incredibly easy to make. Even the from-scratch fresh strawberry buttercream doesn't require too much effort. The addition of the lemon juice and lemon zest to the cake mix cookie batter gives it a delicious freshness- like drinking a tart glass of fresh lemonade. The sweet strawberry buttercream complements the lemon cookies perfectly. Of course, if you are a huge fan of lemon these cookies are just as delectable sans the buttercream. (But I like them just ever so slightly more with the strawberry buttercream. ;) )
Easy Strawberry Lemonade Cookies
Prep Time: 40 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Ingredients (20-22 cookies)
For the lemonade cookies
- 1 box of lemon cake mix
- 2 eggs
- 1/3 cup canola oil
- Juice & zest of 1 lemon
For the strawberry buttercream
- 2/3 cup strawberries, chopped and then pureed with the juice of half a lemon
- 3/4 cups butter, softened
- 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
- 1/2 tsp vanilla
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees. Line a baking sheet with a silicone mat or parchment paper. Set aside.
In a large bowl, mix together the lemon cake mix, eggs, oil, & lemon juice & zest. Refrigerate the dough for at least 20 minutes.
Add your pureed strawberry/lemon juice mixture to a small saucepan. Heat over medium heat for 10-15 minutes, stirring frequently. Once it has thickened slightly, remove it from the heat and allow it to cool completely.
Pull out your refrigerated cookie dough and drop by generous tablespoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheet.
Bake for 7-9 minutes, until the edges of the cookies are slightly golden brown.
As soon as you take the cookies out of the oven, flatten the tops of each cookie by pressing the bottom of a glass or measuring cup into each cookie. This will create a nice flat surface for frosting the cookies once they have cooled.
Repeat this will the remaining dough.
Allow the cookies to cool completely on a wire rack.
While the cookies are cooling, prepare the fresh strawberry buttercream.
Beat together the butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth & creamy- about 3-4 minutes. Now beat in the cooled strawberry puree.
Fill an icing bag with the strawberry buttercream and using the frosting tip of your choice, top each lemonade cookie with a pretty strawberry buttercream swirl.

Nice fit
Very fast delivery and good quality clothing and shoes would recommend to everyone
More impressed than usual with this purchase. Prior to completing the order, I Updated my new address. This did not save to my account so the order was due to be delivered to my old address. After informing customer service of this, they intercepted the delivery to ensure it was delivered to the correct address. I requested next day delivery, so understand how difficult it would be to amend this. Very grateful.
Great Tshirt.
Are great at giving you brand name at discount prices always top quality products

You're Not Going to Believe It
I was watching HotRodTv last night and there was a feature on a Ford Focus with a 302 and Mustang rear end. It looked stock from the outside but had a rearwheel drive 302 V-8. I was weird watching this thing drive down the road sounding like a strong V-8 with duals. I did not here if they did any performance tests but I bet it moves out pretty good. The project required a lot of engineeriing and took 9 months to complete. They had to rebuild the entire undercarraige.
Guess it goes to show you can do just about anything as long as you have money, time and some knowledge.
Anything can be done, but I like to spend as little money as I can to get the desired results (I'm cheap! ). I guess I don't see spending all that money and all that time reengineering stuff when you can buy a "cool" car and sink the extra money into performance parts. Just my two cents though.
i think its kool, but i like long projects and lots of enginering.Different stroks u-no thats what makes things interesting i've been doing 3.5 years on a 49 chevy truck, even made the dist cap.Really enjoy reading everyones comments there's alot of smart people out there. Thanks
Here are the guys that built

GEE! Isn't that what NASCAR does? It's a shame!!
holy crap, one off! how in thehell can you make a distributor cap? wow! that reminds me i gotta find out who won the winston cup championship! some freakin nascar fan i am huh?
anyway, i still waiting for SOMEBODY to stuff a 426 blown hemile projectile into a prowler or a cruiser with big fat meats. fat tires on the back would make a p/t cruiser look really trick! even tho you know they dont do anything. hey, wheres that kid with the computer animator? yo! and where's that guy that was baggin on chevy motors in fords? here's what they should really be puttin in them, even tho i'm a die hard sbc fan, STUFF A HEMI IN IT!
SINCE we're here; we have a member here that won a dodge stratus from Hot Rod Magazine that was turned into a rear wheel drive and was spozed to have nitrous and a zillion other parts and when he got the car it had been stripped!! and hrm told him to get screwed!!!! we need to send HRM a letter bomb? email me if you care, i'll give you his name, he needs all the help he can get. he's hired a lawyer and is suing them tho. good luck!
[ November 19, 2002: Message edited by: bullheimer ]

i thought i saw a pt with big meats in a drag racing magizine, don't quote me on that though.
thankyou bullheimer for that comment,i design alot of one of a kind stuffs and not just for street rods. the crossfire cap was invented here and somwhere eles too. this cap is prettier and we have two designs,works differently too. i even have a heating system that heats our garage 2500 square feet for a doller a 24hr day
seems like someone would be cranking out ptc rear wheel chassis kit type hotrods
i got hammered like your buddy once didn't do anything about it. it wasn't that severe though
If I remember right, there is a company in Cali that is making PT Cruisers with 426 Hemi's in them. I can't think of the name, but I'll post it if I can find it. If memory serves me, I think that they were going for over $40,000. Like I said, I can't really remember so don't quote me on that.
A PT with a Hemi has got to be cool (pricey but cool).
A Focus with a V8 would still look like a Focus though. I must be getting old, but I just can't fall in love with that look.
I knew there was a reason I dumped Hot Rod (aside from the fact that everything in the mag was slammed to the ground). Do they actually drive those things? Yup, I am old. Highboys suit me just fine.

God Chasers Expanded Ed Pb
Full Product Description
This expanded edition of the original best-seller includes a daily devotional for personal reflection and a study guide. A God chaser is a person whose passion for God's presence presses him to chase the impossible in hopes that the uncatchable might catch him. A child chases a loving parent until, suddenly, the strong arms of the father enfold the chaser. The pursuer becomes the captive; the pursued the captor. Paul put it this way: I chase after that I may catch that which has apprehended me (Phil. 3:12). The passionate paths of God chasers can be traced across the pages history from Moses the stutterer, David the singer, and Paul the itinerant preacher, to contemporaries like A.W. Tozer, Leonard Ravenhill, and countless others who share one common bond: an insatiable hunger to know their Lord.
God Chasers Expanded Ed Pb by Tommy Tenney was published by Destiny Image in February 2005 and is our 4324th best seller. The ISBN for God Chasers Expanded Ed Pb is 9780768422870.

The New York Jets signed former Tennessee Titan speedster, Chris Johnson to a two-year deal, worth up to $9 million. CJ2K will join a crowded backfield, consisting of Chris Ivory and Bilal Powell. Ivory and Powell each had career years in 2013, leading the Green and White into the top-ten for almost every major rushing category.
The addition of a homerun threat to Marty Mornhinweg's offense poses a great challenge for opposing defenses. The one-two combination of speed and strength, Johnson and Ivory, will be a major change of pace that the team did not have in the backfield last season. Although Powell served as a good complement to Ivory's bruising running-style, he did not possess the elite speed that Johnson brings to the table.
Gang Green now has an explosive backfield and the tandem of CJ2K and Ivory should draw a lot of attention from around the league. Matching up against the rest of the NFL, the ball-carriers in New York rank among the top of the list. Combining both Ivory's and Johnson's 2013 stats, they would have recorded over 1,900 yards, ranking tops in the league among tandem backfields. However, if Johnson and Ivory cannot reproduce last year's stats, the Jets will have some competition as to which team has the best backfield in the league.
Coming in second, just in front of the revamped Jets backfield, is the tandem of Fred Jackson and C.J Spiller for the Buffalo Bills. Jackson and Spiller are a one-two punch to defenses, similar to their AFC East rivals. With the signing of run-blocking specialist Chris Williams from the St. Louis Rams, the Bills have provided a sound run-blocking offensive line to open more holes for the veteran duo. Together, the pair recorded over 1,800 rushing yards and 10 touchdowns in 2013. Also, the two Buffalo backs have been productive together since being united in 2010, putting this backfield ahead of the Jets.
The best backfield today is in Philadelphia. The Eagles have made some upgrades this offseason as well, trading for former New Orleans Saints running back, Darren Sproles. Sproles, similar to Johnson, is a fast and elusive back, who can catch the ball out of the backfield. However, his partner in crime is a serious upgrade from Ivory, as last year's top receiving running back is coupled with LeSean McCoy. McCoy is regarded as one of the best rushers in the game, and has the production to back the claims.

Re-elected chairman of the State Transportation Board Mike Evans thanked the residents, chamber members and officials in Hall County for supporting him in the "bare-knuckled brawl" that nearly kept him from serving another term on the DOT board.
"I would not be here were it not for Hall County," Evans told a group of officials from across the county who gathered Tuesday at Gainesville State College for an update on DOT construction projects.
Evans was re-elected to the board earlier this month despite House Speaker Glenn Richardson's efforts to keep him from returning. Richardson had been sore over Evan's decision to vote for Gena Abraham as the DOT commissioner.
Officials and chamber members from across Hall County made it clear in the months before the board election, however, that they wanted Evans to stay.
"I'll never forget Hall County," Evans said. "You were there for me, and I'll be there for you for the next five years."
Evans said $1.2 million of the allotted $4 million for District 9 would be spent in Hall County this year, and promised that any funding applications for Transportation Enhancement, such as greenways and bicycle paths, would be granted.
The DOT's district engineer for Gainesville said more than $132.9 million worth of construction projects are currently under way in Hall County.
Russell McMurry, engineer for DOT District One, said the amount is a testament to Evans' dedication to the area.
"I can't say that about other counties," McMurry said.
Five projects are currently under way — some ahead and others behind schedule — in what McMurry called "the year of the barrel in Hall County."
Still, the DOT has to find a way to fund all the road construction that is necessary to support the county's growth. The department has to come up with nearly $750 million in future projects that have not yet been funded, such as the widening of Ga. 60, McMurry said.
"We have a lot more needs than our budget can currently handle," McMurry said.
Instead of making the projects wait, the state will have to quickly identify new ways to increase funds for transportation, McMurry said.
"These are all good projects," he said.
McMurry did not know how to increase transportation funding, but he said it is a good sign that there are efforts in the state legislature to find a way.
"I don't know what the answer to that is," McMurry said. "I'm just proud that there's an acknowledgement that transportation funds are needed."

Talk about lofty goals: Chrysler says its adopting Fiat's quality-control techniques. That could be a chilling prospect to those whose image of Fiat is shaped by the brand's bottom-of-the-heap reputation.
ON DRIVE ON'S FORUM: Should Chrysler die?
At least Chrysler can't get much worse. It placed dead last in Consumer Reports' predicted reliability ratings last month. Yet fix-it-again Fiat, which has a controlling 20% stake in Chrysler, hasn't exactly pulled ahead of Mercedes-Benz, BMW or others in the owner satisfaction surveys in Great Britain, France and Germany where they all sell cars, as measured by J.D. Power and Associates. Those surveys measure 2-year-old cars, in order to include dependability in the mix. Fiat argues that the survey ignores the quality improvements the company has made since then, an argument that has a familiar ring to anyone who has heard Detroit's standard excuse for half a century. At least Chrysler finances are supposed to be improving:
Chrysler says it has more cash and is doing better financially than most people think. It has $5.7 billion rolling around, CEO Sergio Marchionne said at the all-day business-plan rollout in Auburn Hills, Mich., today. That's less than a quarter of what Ford just reported having at the end of its third quarter. Chrysler has made an operating profit of $200 million -- the earnings before it pays taxes, interest and depreciation -- but Marchionne didn't say over what period. The federal government, in return for its emergency financial help, holds 9.9% and employees own 55%. Marchionne said he would make Chrysler a publicly held company again, but didn't say when.

oven wont light
i have a Maytag Stove model # 31000paw when i turn on the oven the pilot light gets bigger but the oven wont light. Any ideas on what it might be Thanks
pilot assy. may need cleaning/ blown out. If its not that, then gas valve will need replacement.
pilot light stays lit the burner just wont light
It's probably the thermocouple
It's probably the thermocouple.
However, the thermocouple is an integral part of the gas valve, located at the very back of the lowest compartment. It may take a little research to find the correct one, but it's a lot cheaper than a new oven.
Check that the thermocouple is clean first.

One possibility.......
Attachment 73911
Guys, if it were the thermocouple, wouldn't the pilot have been shut down?
Sounds like the gas valve to me.... at least on some gas valves, there is a relatively inexpensive part of the solinoid that often needs replacement if the stove is old. I ran into it on one of my kids old stoves.... can't remember exactly how I tested for it, and the exact name, but in my kid's circumstance, I could tell the solinoid was erratic in opening, and then quit.
I'd try investigating the parts manual of the stove and check out the gas valve.

Category: baby name Gracie
by Abby Sandel of Appellation Mountain
Congrats to Kim and Kanye on the arrival of their daughter! There's been no name announcement as of Sunday night. Is the couple still deciding, or have they realized that delaying the name announcement can generate twice the headlines?
Let's give the famous duo the benefit of the doubt and assume that they're still deliberating. If Kimye is stumped, they're not the first parents to find themselves uncertain about The Name.
Could they be stuck because they've limited themselves to K names? Or have they fallen for a choice that doesn't start with K and fret that breaking with the family tradition might cause problems?
While we wait to learn the name of the newest member of the Kardashian family, let's check out the other baby names in the news this week:
Poppy – Speaking of delayed baby name announcements, Stephen Moyer finally revealed the names of his twins with Anna Paquin. Daughter Poppy's name is popular throughout much of the English-speaking world, but rare in English. It's also a nice connection to Lilac, Stephen's daughter from a previous relationship.
This week, Abby Sandel of Appellation Mountain finds lots of family ties in the names in the news.
The big trend in baby name news this week? It has to be borrowing a name from your family tree.
Once upon a time, it might have been expected that your firstborn son was a junior, or maybe shared his name with grandpa. In other places, family surnames were handed down along with the silver.
These days, there's less pressure than ever to choose heirloom names. And yet we're still inclined to honor our loved ones.
Other parents aren't passing down family names, but they are coordinating their children's names. Sometimes it is a shared first initial; other times, the theme is more subtle.
With this week's Nameberry 9, Appellation Mountain's Abby Sandel shows how it's possible to add new spark to classic names.
I love an unexpected nickname, and it is a delight when parents choose classic baby names with spark. This week's name news was filled with great examples.
The Bush family is big on passing down heirlooms, from father to son, but also across generations. Former first daughter Jenna Bush Hager wears her maternal grandmother's name, and upheld that tradition with her new arrival.
But Jenna went one step further: she figured out a clever way to use both grandmothers' names while adding an on-trend nickname that gives the new baby an identity all her own.
Most baby namers have strong feelings about nicknames–pro or con– liking them on their own, liking them as short/pet forms, or wanting to avoid them altogether.
The question of the week is: Where do you stand on nicknames?
- Would you put a nickname name like Gracie or Charlie on your child's birth certificate??
- Would you choose a name as a path to a nickname you like?
- Would you avoid a name because you don't like its obvious nickname?
- Would you insist (or try to) on your child always being called by his full name?

1k miles on odometer
Mobil 1 EP 5W-30, 7232 mi, 2000 Subaru Impreza 2.5 - Bob Is The Oil Guy
all of these show mobil 1 breaking down to a 5w20 within 5k (as early as 1k in some UOAs)
I highly suggest you browse bobistheoilguy. Turbo cars are much more abusive on fluids. And in hotter areas, the 5w40 holds up extremely well.

Hypocritical on zoning
Dear editor,
I find it very hypocritical that Miles City has some objections to rezoning property just south of town for a construction business. It seems they are worried about what it will look like and, if it got to be an eyesore, what that would do to the first impression one gets from Miles City. How about enforcing the zoning that already exists first?
North Haynes Avenue and a block either way of it is a pus pocket. It has many homes that folks have done a real good job of fixing up, etc. However, so-called construction companies and backyard UNZONED scrapyards have created an eyesore and an environmental disaster zone.
I have tried many times to get the county to enforce these rules. It sure seems to me that the city, zoning, county whoever is not too worried about that "First Impression." North Haynes Avenue gets swept once a year. The outfit that does it leaves more than it picks up.
I would caution the residents that live in the area of the Tatro Street project. If it isn't taken care of any better than what North Haynes Avenue looks like after it was rebuilt, you might be better off now.
There are areas like this all over town and just outside of it in the so-called Zoning Donut. Areas that have needed zoning enforcement and cleaning up for years and decades.
Why pick on this guy when he is trying to get something done and create progress when the rest of you just bluster and suck off the taxes we paid and enforcer absolutely nothing on this subject?

Jaquet Droz made a model named Grande Heure GMT. The watch displays two time zones, while the details are kept to a minimum, and maybe less than that.
The display local time zone is done by hands from pink gold, while the second zone read over the blue hands. On the dial of this watch is read the time in 24-hour format, and therefore can not read the time very precisely true. As each notch on the dial indicates the interval of 10 minutes, the time can be read with an accuracy of 10 minutes.
The case of this model is made of pink gold and it's 43mm in diameter. The mechanism that drives the watch is automatic Jaquet Droz 5N50.4 caliber that has 18 jewels, works of 28,800 v / h and has a power reserve of 68 hours.
The dial is protected by sapphire glass. Declared water resistance is 30m. The watch is supplied with a belt made from alligator skin in black color.

Huawei, China's waking tech giant
From a nation recognized by the West as no-name factories and 'shanzhai' copied devices, Huawei (Huawei Technologies Cos.) is ramping up activity and looking to build up its own brand in the consumer devices market, competing against companies such as Apple Inc.
Headquartered in Shenzhen, China, Huawei is China's largest telecommunications equipment maker, and is a major equipment supplier to phone carriers across Asia, Europe, and Africa with $28 billion USD in sales in 2010, 70% of which was made abroad. Huawei's beginnings started in 1987 by Ren Zhengfei, a former Chinese engineer for the People's Liberation Army, who made a business selling imported phone switches after his engineering unit was split apart. In 1990, Huawei opened up its first research arm and began developing its own switching units and products targeted at rural Chinese telecom companies and continued to expand to other developing countries in Asia and Africa. Since then, Huawei has become a major supplier to top global carriers around the world, alongside suppliers such as Nokia Siemens Networks, Cisco, Ericsson AB, and Alcatel-Lucent SA.
Recent highlights of of Huawei's growth
- Vodafone selected Huawei as their preferred telecoms equipment supplier
- British Telecom appointed Huawei as their preferred supplier for its Network to provide network access components, and optical transmission equipment
- Huawei established partnerships with all major operators in Europe, such as: T-Mobile, Vodafone, O2, Orange
- Huawei deployed the nationwide 3G network in Canada for TELUS and Bell Canada
- Huawei deployed the world' s first LTE commercial network for TeliaSonera in Oslo Norway

Pushing the low-cost smartphone trend
Huawei hasn't stopped there and is continuing to push the fold on developing their own products, investing billions on R&D, spending approximately 10% ($2.5 billion USD) of its sales revenue on R&D in 2010, and also has a total of 12 partnered joint-development research centers around the world, with firms such as Vodafone Group, Deutsche Telekom, NTT Docomo (Japan), and Etisalat (Egypt), along with research ventures with Microsoft and IBM.
With their move to adopt Google's Android mobile OS platform on their mobile devices, Huawei has managed to jump onto the forefront of developing low-cost smartphones and devices. At CES 2011 in January, Huawei announced their high-end Ideos X5 smartphone with a retail price of $365.00, undercutting all Android devices of similar specifications by almost 20%, a perfect fit for the Chinese market where the minimum wage in China's first-tier cities is around $189USD (1226RMB) per month. This trend of lower-cost smartphones is putting pressure on the entire smartphone marketing, and Apple, widely known for their 'luxury' high-end devices by Chinese consumers, is also rumored to be working on a cheaper version of the iPhone targeted at customers in developing countries.
Huawei Ideos X5: $365.00
Samsung Nexus S: $412.00
HTC Desire Z: $499.99
iPhone 4 16GB Unlocked: $649.00
International difficulties for Huawei– Trust and transparency
However, there are hurdles of trust and transparency to overcome as Huawei moves forward internationally in the consumer market. In 2003, Cisco sued Huawei over intellectual property infringement, claiming that Huawei had stolen portions of Cisco's router and switch source code, along with Cisco's command-line-interface and documentation materials. Cisco eventually dropped the lawsuit in exchange for Huawei's promise to modify their product lineup. However, the incident has only deepened the Western perception that Huawei may just another company from China that disregards intellectual property rights.
In addition, Ren Zhengfei's previous involvement with the Chinese People's Liberation Army has red-flagged Huawei internationally, and the company's lack of transparency is causing foreign governments to suspect possible remaining ties to the Chinese government. Time and time again, foreign governments have stepped in to block Huawei's international merger and acquisitions of telecommunications companies on the basis of security concerns: 3Leaf systems (US) in 2010, 3COM Corp (US) in 2008, and Marconi (UK) in 2005.
Despite where Huawei has built itself up from as merely a telecommunications equipment supplier, the journey is long before their brand will be recognized as a major consumer devices manufacturer, and unless it is able to prove its independence from the Chinese government and play by international business standards which recognize intellectual property rights, the road will be road will be a rocky one.

Oscar Pistorius Must Undergo Psychiatric Testing, Judge Rules
(PRETORIA, South Africa) -- Oscar Pistorius will undergo psychiatric testing, Judge Thokozile Masipa ruled Wednesday, a decision that will delay the athlete's murder trial for more than a month.
As the judge read her ruling, the athlete stood, clenching and unclenching his jaw.
"I think it's clear Oscar Pistorius has a psychiatric illness," Masipa said.
Masipa said the court is ill-equipped to evaluate Pistorius' mental stability, and to understand whether it factored into the Valentine's Day 2013 shooting of girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp.
The judge will discuss full details on the testing Tuesday, when the order is officially handed down.
Prosecutor Gerrie Nel pushed for the tests after a psychiatrist, Dr. Merryll Vorster, testifying for the defense told the court that Pistorius suffered from generalized anxiety disorder – a condition that would make him more willing to fight than to flee when faced with what he considered a threat.
Pistorius is accused of premeditated murder in Steenkamp's death. The athlete, known as "Blade Runner" for his prosthetic legs, has said that he believed an intruder had entered his home.

My almost 5 year old DD in general has become a very loving and nurturing big sister to our 20 month old DS. However, now that DS is interested in toys and things that are my "daughters" toys, she is having a lot of trouble sharing pretty much anything. For instance DD has animal figurines that she likes to play with. They were laying on the floor since she was playing with a different toy and DS picked up a lion to play with. She immediately went over to him and yelled "That's mine, NO!" and tried to grab it out of his hands. They both started crying, screaming, etc. I tried to intervene by telling her that he will probably only play with it for a minute and then give be tired of it and she can have it if she wants. She insisted that it was her toy and kept trying to grab it from him. I suggested that she try to give him a different toy to see if he would "switch" with her but he did not want to, so the screaming continued.
This basic scenario happens repeatedly every day. It seems that no matter what toy DS picks up, DD immediately needs it, even when it is an object that is supposedly "his" toy such as a train that we gave him for his birthday, etc. I have tried to explain to her many times that all of the toys in the house are for sharing and that she wants him to share with her, etc. I realize that it is normal for her to have trouble sharing at times, and she is still adjusting to having a sibling to share with. I feel torn because I don't want her to think we side with him all the time but at the same time, it is not right for her to constantly take toys away from him. Recently, I have given her a couple "time outs" for it after warning her not to take something out of his hands, but I just don't feel like I have a good way of dealing with the problem.
Does anyone have any suggestions? I would greatly appreciate the help!
Happy Mommy to a wonderful daughter and son!
Any suggestions?? Please! :)
Happy Mommy to a wonderful daughter and son!
We only had that for a very short time (mine are 11 and 6, so similar age diff.) and I made all the toys, except for very special things, belong to the family. Of course dd could play with the blocks, they belong to all of us! Just keep repeating "share" and "take turns". It will click eventually.
Something that always worked with my ds was explaining to him that of course the baby wants everything you have. Sort of like an inside joke between us. YOU are the coolest person the baby knows, the awesome big brother. So if you have it OF COURSE they want it too because if you like it, clearly it's the coolest thing EVER. So if we were playing ball or something I would make a joke that dd was coming for the ball, but don't forget she will only play with it for a minute and go find something new, so just relax and let her have it and it will be yours again shortly. Teaching ds how babies and toddlers worked was really helpful for him.
I would make some rules about special toys. I would allow her to pick 2-3 special toys that she doesn't want her brother using. Keep them on a shelf where he can't get to them. If she wants to play with those toys, she can take them down and use them at the table or in another room, and you'll help divert her brother. (When he's older, do the same for him.)
The key is, then that anything else is community property and she can't grab it out of his hands. If she decides something else is 'special', then one of the special toys needs to come off the shelf for him to play with. (He'll be happy because it's new!)
The other thing that worked well for our ds, who was 4 1/2 when dd was 20 months is to teach them to trade. At 20 months, the toddler often doesn't care which toy. So when ds was building with track and needed a piece that dd had, he needed to find one that she was willing to trade for. This worked great until dd hit 24 months and suddenly had an opinion about everything. Sigh, she's 7 and still has an opinion on everything!
I have a 4 1/2 year old daughter and a 25 month old son so I definitely have seen my share of this.
In our home there are certain toys that belong only in my daughter's room (most have small pieces or are very special to her). The toys in her room are for her to play with only and brother cannot go in her room without permission. He seems to understand this and most of the time doesn't try to force his way in unless he is being rambunctious lol.
In our playroom all the toys are to be shared. Some were given to her and some to her brother, but regardless they do not "belong" to one single person. This has worked really well for us as even if we move toys from the bedroom to the playroom and add new toys to the bedroom, she still understands and is okay with the fact that any toy located in the playroom is for everyone. When we moved to a new home some toys moved from her bedroom to the playroom and it was explained that those were now shared toys.
However, she is free to move a toy to the bedroom for some privacy if her brother is being destructive, as long as she eventually returns it to the playroom after playing with it. I think respecting her right to have some things to herself and also to have her own space and privacy when needed has really helped her with sharing. This is not to say that my kids never argue over toys, but the fact that we are very strict about how they treat each other and that includes being fair and sharing, lessens this greatly.

With the latest version, and previous releases, I have been experiencing a couple of "issues" with MapPoint 06.
- There is a runtime error when clicking on the timezone (or street) in the MapPoint Window
- The import and save route functions do not seem to be working. I have tried a couple of things including creating a route outside of RR and copying it to the RR directory, as well as global searches for filenames of routes saved from within rr. When I click on the Save or Import features, The skin comes up, but the panes within the skin are empty.

This is a discussion on anti-gun senator shoots intruder - lol within the General Firearm Discussion forums, part of the Related Topics category; Anti-Gun Senator Shoots Intruder...
That's an incident that happened back in 2009, I believe. And the Senator later pled to an assault charge over the incident. That article does not actually portray all the facts of that situation.

Here is an article from the N&O about the incident.Read more here: Shooting by Soles ends in plea, fine - State - NewsObserver.comHere is an article from the N&O about the incident.
Sen. R.C. Soles pleaded guilty Thursday to shooting someone, paid a $1,000 fine, went back to being a senator and left another smudge on the voters' already soiled picture of North Carolina's political leaders.
Soles, 75, a top-ranking Democrat in the N.C. Senate and the state's long est-serving legislator, copped to a misdemeanor charge of assault and joined other public figures in a parade of recent career-ending scandals.
His plea spared him a felony conviction for the August shooting of a would-be intruder, a young man who was a former law client, at Soles' home in Tabor City. The senator long claimed that he shot in self-defense.
Soles will continue to practice law and will finish out his Senate term, his lawyer said. He announced in December that he wouldn't run for re-election this year but said Thursday that he was tempted.
When you have to shoot, shoot. Don't talk.

The years leading up to the shooting, he had "A" ratings from the NRA as well.
Sounds like internet BS to me.

I think it is a story. Unfortunately it goes to show that people on our side are also not above exagerations and lies to try to make a point, or a buck. We need to police our own ranks and make sure that these stories are not propogated. This is a valuable thread in that it informs us of some missinformation that is being spread and we can now speak to stop it.

Thor and Sky Tuesday Week 5!
This sunburn is brutal! I didn't shower or go to the gym yesterday and I was hoping today I'd feel better. Well I woke up and it was pretty much the same as yesterday. I am super red and in pain. I took a shower this morning and that was an adventure. I brought in some more Aloe Vera and my girl Sky helped me out again. Check out her about to put some on my back. SO COLD!

When I was contacted by Lamps.com to give a DIY lampshade makeover to a plain white shade, the first thing that popped into my head was to create a cozy cable knit sweater lampshade. Since I don't own any cozy cable knit sweaters that I want to chop up, I ran down to the Thrift Store on Friday night and scored not one but THREE sweaters that were potential candidates for my lampshade makeover project. Who knew the thrift store had such a plethora of knitted goodness?
The final sweater winner turned out not to be cable knit at all, but it had these fun pompoms over a harlequin pattern that I just love! The best part? It was only $2.99! Score!
I brought it home and gave it a quick wash just to knock the thrift store smell off of it. Then I went to town giving my plain white lamp shade a cozy winter white upcycle. Not counting the time it took to take photographs for this blog entry, this project took me less than 20 minutes from start to finish. Here are the super simple instructions:
I pulled the sweater down over the top of the shade in the same fashion as putting a pillow case over an overstuffed pillow. It was tight, but tight is good in this scenario. The sweater was a ladies size small, but it had enough stretch in it to fit snugly around the shade when I pulled it down around it. I pulled the waistline of the sweater right down to the bottom edge of the shade so it was even all around, then trimmed off the excess material at the top, leaving about 1" all around. Then I secured the sweater around the top edge of the shade with a few dots of hot glue. It's so tight around the shade that I didn't even bother gluing around the bottom. If your sweater is larger than your lampshade, you should be able to just cut it up the back and pull it tight, then glue it down the seam.
And that was it, folks!
The end result is SO simple and beautiful!
It's the perfect winter white addition for my sunroom lamp. Blogging mojo? FOUND. I'm totally in love with how quickly and easily this project came together! Definitely try it and let me know how it works for you!
Since this lampshade was created for the Blogger Challenge at Lamps.com, I asked for your votes and wow, oh wow, did you guys step UP to the plate! Guess what? I WON the contest!! I was up against some serious competition, but in the end I won it with your help. I want to say thank you SO MUCH to everyone for supporting me, especially the kind folks (ahem, Miriam) at Hometalk who featured this on their facebook page. Nearly half a million facebook fans have some serious social media sway.
A huge thanks to Lamps.com for the gift card. I cannot wait to choose some new lighting for my bathroom! No more putting on makeup in the shadows!
I received a free lamp shade and a gift card for my photographs and this blog post. All opinions are 100% mine.
I'm so honored that my DIY Sweater Lampshade Tutorial has been featured on Knockoff Decor, Apartment Therapy , MSNLiving, Good Housekeeping and won the DIY Blogger Challenge at Lamps.com

Love this one. Doesn't taste GF at all. I modify it by adding in almond flour (about 1/2 of the total flour volume), and have also made it brownie like by adding in museli. Will try it with chestnut flour next time as well. The pack is really big and it gives instruction for making up a partial mix. I even make up 1/4 batches to make a tray of muffins.

Wonderful, Wonderful Weekend.
The decision to take me to the Danish capital may not have been as random or indeed romantic as I first thought, given the number of times I heard the sentence 'well of course Denmark has one of the most exciting craft beer scenes in Europe these days'. However, this weekend was one of those that was entirely enhanced by the beer thing. We had dinner with the fabulous Anders Kissmeyer at his brewpub, Norrebro Bryghus and were taken on a gastronomic beery feast that included most of a cow, an unlikely dessert made from liquorice, beetroot and parsnip and a range of Anders' astonishing beers, ending up with a brandy snifter of the delightfully named Little Korkny Ale, a foot-stomping, who-needs-dessert barley wine that was so delicious we took out another mortgage for some more in the bar downstairs after Anders had left. If you ever go to Copenhagen, put Norrebro Bryghus at the top of your list and don't have a big breakfast.
But the best moment happened entirely without the helping hand of beerage. Mr PBBB's not fussy about his food (I know that's hard to believe given how malnourished he looks) but two of his least favourite things are cream and coffee. I can recount literally hundreds of conversations that go something like 'Cream - I don't believe it!! I hate cream. Why don't they SAY there's going to be cream on it on the MENU for God's sake? It's ridiculous. Cream, yeuch.' Then there's the equally familiar 'No thanks, I don't really drink coffee. Do you have peppermint tea instead?'
We ate at the wonderful Peder Oxe on Saturday night, and the sheer elegance of the interiors - Portuguese tiles, open fires, atmospheric lighting - was matched only by the absolutely exquisite waitresses. Every single one of them made Helena Christiansen look like the unfortunate love-child of Les Dawson and Ena Sharples. The most divine of them came to take our dessert order, all silky blonde hair, dainty features and skin like rose petals. "Peppermint tea, please", I said, factoring in the fact it was nearly midnight and I didn't want caffeine jitters. "What about you, sir?" asked the angel-like apparition, twinkling coquettishly at Mr PBBB.."an Irish Coffee?" Long pause, possibly a twitch. "Hmm, yes I think I will", he declared, trying to look as though it was a really really good idea - one that he wished he'd had, in fact.
Once she'd gone to grind the coffee beans and start churning, I laughed so much I think I may have let out a little wee. "IRISH COFFEE?" I hooted. "Coffee and lots of cream?? Since when?" Apparently I think I'll find that sometimes he DOES have coffee and actually, cream is, um, you know, nice in, um Irish coffee because of the WHISKY, so there was no need for me to Go On About It.
I hope she's on commission.

Size effects on tensile and fatigue behaviour of polycrystalline metal foils at the micrometer scale
Dai, C.Y., Zhang, G.P., & Yan, C. (2011) Size effects on tensile and fatigue behaviour of polycrystalline metal foils at the micrometer scale. Philosophical Magazine, 91(6), pp. 932-945.
Submitted Version
(PDF 369kB)
Tensile and fatigue properties of as-rolled and annealed polycrystalline Cu foils with different thicknesses at the micrometer scale were investigated. Uniaxial tensile testing results showed that with decreasing foil thickness the uniform elongation decreases for both as-rolled and annealed foils, whereas the yield strength and ultimate tensile strength increase for as-rolled foils, but decrease for the annealed foils. For both the as-rolled or annealed foils, bending fatigue resistance decreases with decreasing the foil thickness. Deformation and fatigue damage behaviour of the free-standing foils were characterised as a function of foil thickness. In addition, the fatigue strength of various small-scale Cu foils was compared to understand they physical mechanisms of size effects on mechanical properties of the metallic material at micrometer scales.

The debate is not about whether Punch is a good business, nor whether it needs the money. The answer to these questions is that it is certainly well-run and that a delay in its flotation will not make a material difference to its long-term prospects.
The humiliating volte face does, however, hit the venture capital industry and the investment banks. The ethos of venture capital is that it can turn its investments over quickly - it can go into a business, streamline it, gear it up with debt, make one or two logical acquisitions and sell it on to the investing public. But if the final buyer is not there, if the private equity funds are deprived of their exit, they are very quickly in trouble. The longer they hold an investment, the less attractive the rate of return it generates and the less easy it is for them to attract the new funds.
One dead swallow does not destroy their summer but there can barely be a house in London that has not felt a shiver of fear this week. They are sellers of companies, and the buyers, the investing institutions have clearly signalled that they are not interested. The implications of that for their business are all bad.
The implications are bad for the investment banks, too. They live on the fees they get for raising money for clients. When the flow of new issues dries up, they feel the pain directly and immediately They need a huge flow of deals to feed their furnaces. The past year has been awful for them and they had hoped things would get better this summer. Punch dashes those hopes. Things look much bleaker today than they did last Friday.
These institutions have never been well-managed, have lost control of their cost base and have been poor at adjusting to a downturn. Their strategy has been to turn their bottoms to the chill winds, stick their heads in the sand and wait for the storm to pass. The abject and humiliating failure of Punch to find buyers at a reasonable price suggests they have to do something more profound. That could be unpleasant for those who work there.
Sadness abroad
I HAVE been trying to work out whether or not I mind if the London Stock Exchange is sold to foreigners, because it may well be soon. This week, it belatedly confirmed it was in talks. The most likely suitor is the US Nasdaq exchange.
The significance of this development is that until now we had all hoped that London would be predator rather than prey. Not any more. American securities laws require Americans to be on top. Even if this deal does not happen, the fact that the talks have taken place and the LSE share price has soared confirms it as a target.
I cannot see an American deal happening for another reason. Whoever gets London will dominate Europe, which means Frankfurt and Paris have to do something. The odds favour the French. Euronext, the amalgam of Paris, Brussels and Amsterdam, already has Liffe, which has left it with no money but when the prize is the London Stock Exchange, it will be found from somewhere. Frankfurt may try, too.
Does it matter? Probably not, given that exchanges these days are little more than computer systems with increasingly disloyal customers. But the London Exchange being foreign-owned will take more than a bit of getting used to. And it is surely sad, for all the City's embrace of other nationalities, that we really have been so inept that nothing is left in British hands.

text: I have damaged the pump housing trying to get the water pump replaced. I purchased the tool and even so it would not budge. It appeared to be almost welded to the housing. Does anyone have a water crossover housing they want to sell? 1997 Deville Y-northstar model. The car has had the overheating problem in the past and I had to have the headbolts and anchors replaced at 38K miles. No I have 86K and it started to run warm. So I tried to replace the thermo and pump only to break the housing... Please help. Thanks, Marshall

North Carolina will be out for revenge Thursday night when the Tar Heels host top-ranked Florida State in an ACC women's match televised live on Fox Soccer Channel (8 pm ET).
In 2005, the Tar Heels had assembled one of the best teams in their storied history, but the Seminoles upset them on penalty kicks in the quarterfinals of the NCAA Division I Tournament.
"Considering what happened in the NCAA Tournament last year, I am sure this is a game they are looking forward to," says FSU senior Kelly Rowland. "If you asked me freshman year, I would have never thought that UNC may have a game vs. Florida State circled on their calendar."
Last year's game aside, Carolina has dominated the series with Florida State. The first nine times Carolina played Florida State, the Heels outscored it, 62-2. After a 3-1 loss played in the driving rain the first time the teams played in 1995, FSU wasn't even within four goals in any of the next eight meetings. UNC leads the series 17-1-1, with the Noles' one outright victory coming in 2000.
Florida State comes into Thursday's game with a 6-0-0 record in 2006. Its best win came in its opener when it beat defending champion Portland, 2-1. Only once have the Seminoles scored as many as three goals in a game, though. Australian Selin Kuralay and U.S. international India Trotter, FSU's two top threats, have combined for only six goals on 55 shots.
Carolina is 8-1-0 with its only loss coming at Texas A&M in its opening game. Coach Anson Dorrance has the youngest team in the program's history. For the last three games, Dorrance started six freshman -- defenders Kristi Eveland and Ali Hawkins, midfielders Nikki Washington and Tobin Heath and forwards Sterling Smith and Whitney Engen -- and another freshman, U-20 star Casey Nogueira, has been a key contributor off the bench. UNC's only senior starter is U.S. national team forward Heather O'Reilly.
The nationally televised showdown marks the first time in 16 years that Carolina has hosted a team ranked higher than it in the national rankings,
- No. 18 Texas A&M overwhelmed Sam Houston State, 9-0, before 2,145 fans at the Aggie Soccer Stadium. Ashlee Pistorius,
Natalie Currie and Melissa Garey each scored twice.
- Freshmen Emily Pallotta and Casey Brown scored in the first half to lift No. 25 Boston University to a 2-0 win over over Harvard. The win marked the Terriers' first victory over the Crimson in the series history.
- Laura Harper scored from 25 yards out only 23 seconds into the second half to give unbeaten Maine a 1-0 victory over Brown, which shared the No. 25 spot in the Soccer America Women's Top 25 with BU. The Black Bears (7-0-1) have now won six straight games, allowing just one goal in that span.

im looking for new horror and action anime , i already have gits sac , tsukihime , sayuki reload and gunslinger girl. someone help me out
As far as Im aware there arent many horror anime shows out there, they are mostly OVAs and feature length movies, as the stuff of TV has be quite 'tame'*
As for action, you could do worse than any of the following (considering most of the stuff you've mentioned is realistic-ish):
Last EXILE
Cowboy Bebop
*this word is used very loosely
You could take a look at Ayatsuri Sakon and Mermaid's Forest (TV).
For horor you should look up Hundred Stories (Kousetsu Hyaku Monogatari)
My suggestions:
- Hellsing (licensed)
- Blood: The Last Vampire (licensed)
- Arc the Lad (licensed)
Horror? A tough one, if i may say so...
well,you could try:
-Hitsuji no Uta
-Chrno Crusade (not really horror, but it can be recommended in any case)
-Berserk (the manga is a gazillion times better but the anime is great nonetheless,especially the "end")
Hundred Stories and to an extent Gilgamesh... I highly recommend both....

Post of the Day
June 24, 1999
From our
Just Out of College Folder
Posts selected for this feature rarely stand alone. They are usually a part of an ongoing thread, and are out of context when presented here. The material should be read in that light.
Subject: Re: First, er Second, Stock
Author: babyfrog
One thing I've learned here at The Motley Fool is that investing is best done with a long-term focus in mind. That a stock drops 20 points in the short term is not a big deal, if the company's fundamentals are sound and its management is capable of continuing to operate and grow the company profitably. If you were willing to buy a stock at 100, what fundamentally changed that made you consider -not- buying it at 80? If the company was worth purchasing at 100, then it should be even more worth purchasing at 80, unless there was a fundamental negative shift in the company's ability to produce or sell its goods and services.
A great place for you to look to get an education on how to value stocks and determine what would be appropriate investments for you is right here, at The Motley Fool, check out Fool School, at http://www.fool.com/school.htm . This will give you a rather in-depth overview of how to look at the stock market and approppriately determine your own investment choices.
Let me illustrate with an example. I work for the company mentioned below, and I am a stockholder in it as well. I am not a spokesman, and my statements do not reflect the company's opinions in any way, shape, or form. I am certainly not recommending you buy, sell, or hold stock in the company. The example given is for historical, illustrative purposes only and makes no prediction about the future. The statements here are my opinions and are mine, my own, and mine alone.
|"Let me ask you a question: Why should you trust me or my opinions on any stock or anything else having to do with money? You don't know me from Adam. For all you know, I, and everyone else here at the Fool could very well be serving time at a Federal Prison for Fraud. Why would you trust perfect strangers with your money?"
One of the best investments of the past decade was Procter & Gamble. Yes, P&G (NYSE: PG), the Soap company. Even in this crazy tech-heavy economy, where money losing internet companies were tripling in stock price on a daily basis, that company continued to post regular, solid profits and stock price gains. In fact, if you compare P&G's stock to the S&P 500, the DJIA, and the NASDAQ indicies over the past 10 years, you would discover that P&G stock outperformed all those indicies in the past decade. And it did it while selling the same type of products it has been selling for over a century... Boring Consumer Staples like soap, toilet paper, and detergent.
Check out these links:
Over the past week, however, the stock has been pummeled. It has fallen nearly 20 points from its all-time high, and it has dropped about than 10 of those points last week. The stock drop occured following a major announcement regarding the Organization 2005 restructuring that the company is undertaking to help improve its sales. In that announcement, the company said that it would probably not meet its previous target of doubling its sales by the middle of next decade, but that the new restructuring, once in place, would allow it to grow its top-line at a 6%-8% annual rate, as opposed to the 2%-3% rate it had been growing in the past few years.
After the announcement, both Moody's and Standard and Poor's announced that they were affirming their ratings on P&G, suggesting that they believed that the restructuring would not be a bad thing for the company. Yet the stock price continued to fall. Why it did and continues to is beyond me; after all, the low top-line growth has been evident for the past few years, yet it hadn't affected the stock price at all; now that the company announced that it was going to actively do something to grow its top-line faster, its stock got hit hard. All that does is reaffirm my belief that in the short term, the stock market is really just a guessing game.
Again, that whole section was my opinion and my opinion alone. It was not a recommendation to take any specific action towards the purchase, hold, or sale of stock in any company, nor did it represent an official company position on anything.
|"The best free stock market education around is at your fingertips. Learn it well, and the financial rewards will find you."
In the long term, a company's fundamentals determine the direction of its stock price. A company that can grow its sales and its earnings year in and year out will be rewarded with solid, long-term stock price appreciation. The shareholders that held on during the momentary price swings will also be rewarded with a solid, strong long-term return on their investments.
Let me ask you a question: Why should you trust me or my opinions on any stock or anything else having to do with money? You don't know me from Adam. For all you know, I, and everyone else here at the Fool could very well be serving time at a Federal Prison for Fraud. Why would you trust perfect strangers with your money? You posted a request asking people you don't know and never met to tell you how to spend your money. The best free stock market education around is at your fingertips. Learn it well, and the financial rewards will find you. Best of all, it will put YOU, not some random stranger who does not have your best interest at heart, in charge of your money and financial destiny.
Best of skill, Zach. A couple hours at the Fool School, combined with applying the knowledge you pick up there, will pay off better for you in the long run than any quick stock tip that I or anyone else here can give you.
