Will big iPhone lines equal big returns for Apple's stock?Lawrence Lewitinn at Talking Numbers2 days ago
From Singapore to Seattle, Apple fans camped outside stores waiting to buy the new iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus. Now investors are wondering if enthusiasm for the latest iPhone will translate to the enthusiasm for Apple's stock.
The sales numbers for the larger new iPhones have been as wildly positive as the device's reviews. On the first day preorders were permitted, 4 million phones were sold, twice what were sold for the iPhone 5 two years ago. Analysts at RBC expect Apple will sell as many as 10 million iPhones this weekend.

However, excitement for the iPhone may be curbed because there just may not be enough phones to satiate demand, said Gina Sanchez, founder of Chantico Global. "The biggest problem that it has this weekend in particular is that there are supply constraints," she said. "Numbers are going to be dependent on how many actual Apple iPhone 6 phones there are to sell."
Greenberg: Here's the real problem with the Alibaba IPOLawrence Lewitinn at Talking Numbers3 days ago
Shares of Alibaba are about to hit the market in what looks to be the biggest IPO in history. But is it too risky despite all the hype surrounding it?
The China-based e - commerce company is anticipated to raise an astounding $21.77 billion. With shares priced at $68 each, the valuation of the company will be at around $167.62 billion.
[Yahoo, a partner with CNBC in "Talking Numbers , " owns 23 percent of Alibaba before the offering.]
(Read: Alibaba prices IPO at $68 a share)
Some are even more enthusiastic. "Someday, Alibaba will trade at 15 – 20 times earnings," said Business Insider editor-in-chief Henry Blodget on CNBC Thursday. "The stock could easily trade to $100 and be justifiable."
However, another market watcher says the deal is too complicated for the average investor. Herb Greenberg, a CNBC contributor and Editor of the Reality Check Research Report, said Alibaba is "too darn complicated" and buying stock in the company could lead to trouble for investors.
The technicals are now saying buy this stock: ProLawrence Lewitinn at Talking Numbers3 days ago
Are the technicals of one company now flashing a buy sign for one of this year's most lackluster sectors?
Year to date, the industrials have been the third-worst sector out of the 10 in the S&P 500. Returning just 3.9 percent, industrials have underperformed the broader market index's 8.8 percent in 2014.
But investors should pay very close to the charts of General Electric, according to Joe Digiammo, global head of equities at Mischler Financial Group. That's because GE may have just crossed above an important technical level that may take the rest of the industrials sector with it.
(Read: Dow, S&P hit record as financials climb)
GE is particularly important to the ETF that tracks the industrials sector (trading under the symbol XLI) as it is 10.18 percent of the ETF's holdings. Likewise, "If you are making a play on the XLI, you are by a certain extension making a play or asserting an opinion on GE," said Digiammo.
This casino has the most favorable oddsLawrence Lewitinn at Talking Numbers3 days ago
Things may have gotten worse in the gambling capital of the world but could some of its biggest players still be solid bets for investors.
The casino industry in Macau, the center of the gambling universe, ha s been dealt several bad hands recently: a crackdown on corruption by the Chinese government ; an impending smoking ban ; typhoon Kalmaegi in nearby Hong Kong ; and the upcoming Golden Week holiday have all been scaring money away from the tables. The average daily revenue for Macau in September, currently estimated at about $100.2 million per day, is down 14 percent from August.
Meanwhile, the four big Macau players trading in the U.S. – Las Vegas Sands, Melco Crown Entertainment, MGM Resorts and Wynn Resorts – have all been losing bets in 2014.

Why higher rates may not derail the rallyLawrence Lewitinn at Talking Numbers4 days ago
Stocks gained after the Federal Reserve said it was planning on keeping interest rates low for a "considerable time . " However, when that time finally comes stock investors may not need to worry all that much.
Goldman Sachs recently looked how the benchmark S&P 500 behaved before and after the three times the Fed began rate hikes over the last two decades. Their study found that the market index was up 12 months after each rate increase.
(Read: Here's what changed in new Fed statement)
David Seaburg, head of equity sales trading at Cowen and Company, believes the Fed is the most transparent it has ever been and that will give confidence to the market when a rate hike comes.
"On announcement day, I expect the market to actually trade pretty well," Seaburg said. "If you use tapering as an example… they announced a December tapering , and the markets took off. So my expectations is once an announcement does occur, the market is going to rally and could rally pretty substantially. I think the comfort level people are going to have that the Fed is not acting too early is going to help us launch off."
These three charts spell trouble for the bullsLawrence Lewitinn at Talking Numbers4 days ago
The S&P 500 is near record highs. But some bearish technical headwinds may soon spell trouble for stocks.
According to John Kosar, director of research at Asbury Research, three charts show that a peak in stocks may already be underway.
Kosar first looks at the Nasdaq 100 index. He notes that it failed to break above its September 2000 high of 4,147.19. While the Nasdaq 100 made a few attempts to rise above that level this month, it still has not done so and closed Wednesday at 4,073.57.
"Markets have a long-term memory," he said. "Whenever you are bumping up against a big area like this, most of the time you're not going to get through it the first time. … Just looking at this chart all by itself, it suggests there's going to be a problem just getting through here, at least first try."
Kosar then looks at a chart of the assets in the ETF tracking the Nasdaq 100 (which trades under the ticker symbol QQQ). That chart just traded below its 21-day moving average, potentially spelling trouble for the overall index.

This chart explains why Apple's at a critical levelLawrence Lewitinn at Talking Numbers4 days ago
Reviews of Apple's new iPhones are in and critics are overwhelmingly thrilled. Now investors are hoping the stock rides the wave.
Among the many singing praises of iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus is Re/code's Walter Mossberg. "I've been testing the more mainstream of the two models, the 4.7-inch iPhone 6, for about a week now, and I think it's a terrific phone,"Mossberg writes. "In my view, it's the best smartphone on the market, when you combine its hardware, all-new operating system, and the Apple ecosystem whose doors it opens." [Re/code is a CNBC partner site.]

I Phones already make up about half of Apple's total revenue. But will Apple's stock, which has rallied about 10 percent in the last three months ahead of last week's release, get a further boost as the latest iPhones hit the market?
David Seaburg, head of equity sales trading at Cowen and Company, thinks the new iPhone's real impact will be seen with Apple Pay, the electronic payment system that will be included with the phone.
Here's why stocks could be in big troubleLawrence Lewitinn at Talking Numbers5 days ago
Corporations have been on a spending spree, using huge stockpiles of cash to buy back their own shares. Is this what really has been pushing the market to new highs – and will the markets soon change course?
According to data compiled by Birinyi Associates, 2014 is looking like a banner year for share buybacks (a technique whereby companies buy back their own shares from investors, thus increasing the demand for their stock).
(Watch: Stocks climb on hopes for Fed, Chinese stimulus)
"The first half of 2014 has been the best start to the year ($338 billion ) since 2007 ($361 billion ), the current record year for buyback authorizations and executions," writes Birinyi analyst Rob Leiphart. "And since the bear market ended on March 9, 2009, the current quarter ($157 billion ) is the third best (out of 22 quarters) during the current bull market."
The Nasdaq's creeping bear marketLawrence Lewitinn at Talking Numbers5 days ago
The Nasdaq composite index may be up 8 percent year to date, but there's an ominous statistic that's worrying some investors.
Out of the Nasdaq composite's 2,558 stocks, 1,269 are down more than 20 percent off their 52-week highs as of Tuesday's close, based on data from FactSet. Another 636 are down between 10 percent and 19.98 percent.
That means three-quarters of the companies in the Nasdaq are in a correction or are outright bearish. However, among Nasdaq companies valued above $10 billion, only a one-third are in correction or bearish territory.
(Read: What bubble? Legacy tech gets shut out)
Richard Ross, global technical strategist at Auerbach Grayson, sees the number of Nasdaq stocks that are greatly off their 52-week highs as a troubling sign. "Market breadth, which talks to the advancers and decliners … is a very important technical indicator that technical analysts have looked at for 100 years," he said. "A narrowing of the market whereby fewer stocks are making new highs—that is somewhat worrisome."
Boeing may have outfoxed Musk, but it could have bigger problemsLawrence Lewitinn at Talking Numbers5 days ago
Elon Musk is arguably one of the greatest entrepreneurial minds of the 21 st Century, but he was outsized an old school aerospace giant.
Boeing won the bulk of NASA's contract for a space taxi. One of the other companies vying for the deal is SpaceX, the company headed by Tesla's Musk, will get a $2.6 billion contract compared to Boeing's $4.2 billion.
Currently, the NASA contract depends on Russia, which charges about $70 million per person.
Boeing is the worst-performing Dow stock on a year-to-date basis; while the overall index is up 3 percent, Boeing is down 7 percent. That's even while its net income of $5 billion over the last four quarters is 19 percent higher than it was a year ago.
Would this potential deal make a difference for Boeing and make the stock a buy? Gina Sanchez, founder of Chantico Global, doesn't believe so.
"It takes a long time to build aircraft," said Sanchez, a CNBC contributor. "From the time you get orders to the time you deliver, a whole lot of things happen. It takes years."


text: So you want to learn about golf. Fantastic! The following information is here to help you gain some familiarity with the game, from the way the golf course runs right on down through what to do when playing with someone else for the first time. Reading this may help increase your comfort level and understanding of the game, so here we go.ARRIVAL AT THE GOLF COURSEFirst thing first, if you are coming to play golf odds are that you or a friend of yours made a "Tee Time". While it isn't always necessary to have a tee time at every golf course in the world, it is always wise to call ahead and make sure the course has room for you to play when you have the desire to go. Some of the higher class courses do require you to have a tee time though. Give your desired location of play a call and they will generally be happy to fill you in on all the particulars One important thing to remember, tee time is when you are expected to be hitting your ball down the fairway from the first tee, not when you enter the parking lot with your car. Check into the Pro Shop at least 15 minutes before your tee time, even sooner if you want time to warm up. Also, keep in mind that the golf course owns the tee time, not you. If you do not have a foursome, they are likely to put somebody with you if it is a busy day. Often a twosome or threesome will demand to go by themselves, but doing so costs the golf course the revenue for the missed time. If you book for four people and only show up with three, many courses will charge you for the fourth person anyway because you have cost them money in doing so, and you are liable for that amount of money. Knowing this early in your golf career can save you money, anger, and embarrassment in your future. Let's say you are a twosome of beginning golfers and you are not comfortable playing with others yet. Call the golf course and ask when light traffic times occur so you can get out as a twosome and play alone, most courses are aware of this situation and will gladly offer solutions to help you out. PLEASE! Under no circomstances book a time on a busy day and demand to go by yourselves, or just go by yourselves without the group the Pro Shop paired you with. This is very rude as it backs up the course behind you for the length of your tee time, and that back up may last hours. Effectively you have caused a problem that will make everyone who tees off behind you mad, and everyone in the Pro Shop mad at you because they have to listen to the complaints.YOU'VE ARRIVED, NOW WHAT?Check into the Pro Shop as soon as possible and pay your fees. If there are any snafu's in the order of play that day, knowing who is there gives the Pro Shop as much time possible to adjust and still get you out early or on time. Trust me snafu's happen, weather delays, late arrivals, poor tee sheet management, impatient customers, and a host of other reasons make keeping tee times flowing difficult at times. Many courses have bag drop areas out front where you can drive up and unload your golf bags. If the course has a player service department, someone may greet you there and help you unload and carry your clubs for you into a golf cart staging area. If so, you just need to go in and pay, the staff will have you set up on a cart by the time you are done paying in most cases. Be sure and flip a dollar or two their way if they give you good service. If the course doesn't have a player service staff to help you get loaded up, you may have to do it yourself. Bags go on the back of the cart, and while it may seem obvious to many of you that the straps are there to hold it in place, I've watched enough bags fall off the back end of carts to know that you need to remember to secure the straps that hold the bag. The golf carts operate simple enough, they have a gas pedal and brake, the brake has a parking lock on it that I recommend you use any time you get out of the cart. Pushing down on the parking lock will secure the brake, and pushing on the gas pedal will disengage the brake. For liability reasons most courses demand that the driver of the golf cart have a drivers license. These are not toys and they cost $6000, don't let your kids drive them and don't drive them erratically, doing so will likely get you kicked off the golf course if an employee see's you do it. Many people are injured and killed every year because of horse play with a golf cart, don't be one of them.Being early gives you the option to practice and get warmed up. Most courses have some kind of warm-up area like a driving range and putting green for practice. You can usually purchase a basket of range balls to get warmed up with. Keep in mind you want to buy a basket big enough to get warmed up, but not so big you will late for your tee time because you don't want to pull yourself away from the driving range when the Pro Shop calls your name. Use of the putting green generally does not cost anything.TIME TO GO GOLFING!Generally when you are checking into the Pro Shop and paying your fees, the Pro Shop staff will let you know if there is a starter on duty. If there is, they will direct you to the starter and he or she will inform you when it is your turn to tee off. If there is no starter, most of the time the Pro Shop will be calling names on a public address system to get your attention and tell you when to go down to the first tee. Listen carefully, and when you hear your party's name, head on down to the first tee and be ready to go. When the group in front of you is no longer in range to be hit by a shot from everyone in your group, you may tee off. Do your best to keep up with the group in front of you throughout your round, but don't hit a ball near them. Wait until they are completely out of the way to hit your shots, let them get loaded up in their cart and on their way rather than risk injury and an almost sure confrontation by landing a ball near the group in front of you. Keep in mind the group behind you is also anxious to hit their shots, when you are through hitting a shot or putting on the green, immediately start moving to your next location as to get out of their way. There are a couple things you can do to help keep traffic moving on the golf course. First, be ready to hit your shot when the time comes. Pick out your club ahead of time, and stand at the ready by your ball, take your practice swings while you are waiting. When it is your turn, GO!! Typically the person farthest away from the hole has the "honors", hence they go first. However, if someone loses a ball everyone else should hit their own ball first before helping the person who has lost theirs. Second, park your golf cart in effecient locations so you are moving away from the group behind you as soon as possible, for instance behind the green instead of in front of the green. Doing so allows the group behind you to hit sooner and that will cause them less frustration.READY GOLF - This is an option more groups should consider while playing recreational golf, doing so will speed up the round for them and other groups on the golf course. In ready golf we do not worry about who has the honors, basically if someone in the group is READY, they go ahead and go. This can be a real time saver, especially if you have a particularly slow person in your group that everyone has to wait on frequently. The object is to have fun and this is not the PGA Tour. Be ready, go when you can, keep the pace of play up, and have fun.

Sand 9 challenges dominance of Quartz timing devices in mobile applications
Companys TM361 and TM061 outperform competitive timing solutionsand support integration with mobile chipsets and low-power wireless connectivity devices.
Sand 9, Inc., announced the first micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) timing products specifically designed to meet the stringent performance, cost, size and reliability requirements of high volume mobile applications such as 3G/4G cellular and GPS/GNSS as well as low-power wireless connectivity applications such as Bluetooth® Smart. Sand 9's TM361 and TM061 are also the only timing products that support integration with mobile and wireless connectivity chipsets, conserving board space and reducing bill of materials.
"The proliferation of mobile phones and the rapid growth of the Internet of Things have dramatically changed the way we communicate with each other and with our digital environment," said Jérémie Bouchaud, director and senior principal analyst, MEMS & Sensors, IHS. "While system-on-chip innovations have contributed to this massive proliferation, timing has been the exception, because quartz does not support integration. With the advent of integration-ready system-level timing solutions from companies such as Sand 9, however, this is bound to change."

Superstorm Sandy caused billions of dollars' worth of damage to New York's transit systems. The recently renovated South Ferry subway station remains closed. Repairing the flood damage will cost about $600 million.
But the MTA has restored much of the mass transit system used by 5 million commuters.
The eventual cost of Sandy to the MTA will be about $5 billion. The MTA will pay that mainly with FEMA money (about 75 percent), insurance, borrowing money, and cost cutting, the March scheduled fare increases, and 0 percent labor wage increase.

February 26, 2013, 2:33 PM — CIO Douglas Menefee put the question to his boss at Schumacher Group, a healthcare company: Do you want to run a software-development company, or do you want to deliver care?
Predictably, CEO William "Kip" Schumacher wanted to focus on healthcare. That's how Menefee sold him on moving from on-premise applications to software as a service (SaaS) and, more recently, infrastructure as a service.
Menefee says this shift allows his IT staff to do less routine work and deliver more of the IT innovations that enable the company's core mission.

Death can be a hard subject to talk about. But the truth of the matter is, death is a part of life.
"They offer comfort, companionship and love. They watch if a person has needs, like if they start fidgeting or they start sweating or their breathing changes or they cant call the nurse because they are too weak," Mejday told KHQ's Stephanie Vigil.
"It's a privilege and it's an honor. It's also very humbling because you have an opportunity to sit with someone as they are transitioning from this life to the next and representing a family member who cannot be there. Being at that sacred presence and that compassionate companion is very, very rewarding," volunteer Kris Fisher said.
Whether it be verses from the bible, a story being read or the sound of silence, the volunteers offer a compassionate presence.

October 08, 2013, 9:04 PM — Network Solutions is investigating an attack by a pro-Palestinian hacking group that redirected websites belonging to several companies.
Owned by Web.com, Network Solutions registers domain names, provides hosting services and sells other website-related administration services.
A group calling itself the KDMS Team claimed responsibility on Twitter. The websites affected included those of the security companies AVG and Avira; the messaging platform WhatsApp; a pornography site, RedTube; and Web metrics company Alexa.
John Herbkersman, Web.com's senior director for public communications, said Network Solutions was aware of the problem.
"Cybercrime today is rampant," he said. "We just continue to try to do our best to bring in the best people and bring in the best equipment."
Avira said its own network and customers were not affected, but that the DNS (Domain Name System) records -- administered by Network Solutions -- were changed to point to other domains, which is known as DNS hijacking.
"It appears that our account used to manage the DNS records registered at Network Solutions has received a fake password-reset request which was honored by the provider," the company wrote on its blog. "Using the new credentials, the cybercriminals have been able to change the entries to point to their DNS servers."
No malicious code was delivered by the domain to which Avira Web surfers were redirected to, the company said.
Hackers have had notable successes in recent months compromising DNS providers. The DNS allows a domain name, such as idg.com, to be translated into an IP address that can be called into a browser.
Companies such as Network Solutions hold those DNS records, which if modified, can send Web surfers to different domains.
Earlier this week, hosting provider LeaseWeb saw its main domain redirected to an incorrect IP address after hackers apparently obtained the administrator password from the company's domain registrar. The KDMS team said it was responsible for that hack.
In August, hackers compromised an Australian IT services company, Melbourne IT, and modified DNS records that affected Twitter, The New York Times, the Huffington Post and ShareThis. A pro-Syrian group, the Syrian Electronic Army, claimed responsibility.

The election outcome Wall Street wants most
Politicians will have to turn their attention to resolving the budget impasse and find a way to avoid the fiscal cliff.
Within hours, the apparently unending stream of 2012 presidential campaign rhetoric will finally be at an end – probably. But even before the inauguration festivities mark the swearing in of the victorious candidate, politicians of both political persuasions, outgoing and incoming, will have to turn their attention to resolving the budget impasse and find a way to avoid the toxic combination of automatic tax increases and mandatory, across-the-board spending cuts scheduled to kick in on January 1, 2013.
Both candidates have devoted tremendous time and energy over the course of the year to date to spelling out their respective visions for the United States. The problem? Whoever is elected is going to have a tough time moving forward on any front, much less delivering on pledges to transform the country on Day One of their presidency, if in the weeks that elapse between tomorrow's poll and New Year's Eve, they fail to avert catastrophe. If the United States manages to run its economy off the "fiscal cliff" like a particularly demented lemming, those grand visions of the future have even less chance than ever of materializing.
What does that mean for financial markets? For now, you can expect to read in pretty much every financial publication of your choice – this one included – an array of thoughtful and detailed opinions of which kinds of investments are likely to outperform or lag depending on the electoral outcome. A Democrat in the White House, but a Republican Congress? A Republican majority throughout Washington? A split in Congress, with the House dominated by one party and the Senate by the other? Simply analyzing the possible ramifications as of Wednesday morning is enough to keep policy and market junkies contented for weeks.
The problem with that is that it is all academic, at least in the short term. Because as soon as the election outcome is determined, you can be sure investors are going to be less concerned about its impact on the energy industry or the health-care sector than they are about the fiscal cliff.
And if you think that the stock market has felt volatile at times so far this year, you ain't seen nothing yet.
The one safe bet is that volatility will increase in the short term as Congress reassembles to try to hammer out some kind of short-term agreement to prevent sequestration – those mandatory spending cuts – from taking place. And the odds are that, absent a degree of harmony on the part of those lawmakers that's been rare in recent years, it is going to be tough for stocks and other "risk assets" to build on the gains they have recorded so far this year.
At the moment, the consensus is that a deal will be struck to avoid the fiscal cliff. While whoever wins the White House either won't face re-election or won't face it for another four years, members of the House will be back in front of voters again in only two years. And it's unlikely that President Barack Obama wants to go down in history as the president who was unable to prevent economic catastrophe that could have been averted – or that his Republican challenger, former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney, cares to begin his presidency with at least one arm tied behind his back.
Pragmatic self-interest is likely to drive politicians to carve out some kind of solution, even if it's another short-term one.
That consensus is helping to provide a floor for the stock market at present. Without it, the slump in corporate profits and growing caution on the part of companies still announcing their third-quarter results would have put even more of a dent in stock market valuations. Now the question becomes the length and nature of the negotiations that must follow – and the kind of rhetoric that will emerge in the days following the election results.
The more rapidly those results are put to one side and legislators can get back to Washington and begin serious negotiations; the more smoothly those talks proceed; the less doomsday rhetoric emanating from either side; the greater the odds that the financial markets will remain somewhat calm. But as earnings season draws to a close, the markets' focus will shift inexorably to Washington, in hopes that whoever inhabits the White House, it will be common sense that is the real victor.

Advisors are assigned by the academic department in which the student majors. Students can view their current advisor through VandalWeb; if there is no advisor assigned, the Academic Advising Center provides advising contacts for all majors.
Review the Class Schedule for your selected classes and make a tentative schedule; be sure to have alternate class choices in case you need to adjust as you register. While reviewing the Class Schedule, take note of the CRN's for your classes so that you can use them during registration. Students who are unable to register for their choice of classes should contact their academic advisor for alternate suggestions.
Each student is assigned a day and time in which they can begin registration for the next semester. Registration is ongoing through the first of the semester after your beginning time. Changes to your initial registration can be made throughout the entire online registration period.
By registering for classes, students agree to:
Registration is NOT canceled and classes are NOT automatically dropped for non-payment of fees. Students who decide not to attend must drop all classes prior to the first day of the semester on VandalWeb or request cancellation.

?Board of Commissioners quiz contractors about bids for restoration work on county courthouse
Written by Administrator
Wednesday, 27 August 2008 00:00
? The Washington County Board of Commissioners met in regular session on Wednesday afternoon, August 20, with all members present. The Commissioners unanimously approved the minutes of previous meetings and all claims.
Judge Robert Bennett addressed the Commissioners and introduced representatives from two construction companies specializing in restoration of historic buildings. Dennis Bolton of BJB Architectural Metal Services, Inc. and Tom Johnson of Keystone Restorations went into depth explaining to the Commissioners what their inspections revealed about damage to the bell tower of the courthouse and the recommended work to correct the problems.
All three Commissioners examined the bids and asked probing questions regarding the differences and similarities contained in the two bids. In summary, both companies plan to remove the aged and damaged mortar from around the sandstone masonry of the bell tower and replace the mortar with new, yet historically accurate, mortar and waterproof the exterior of the tower. The bid from Keystone Restorations included a step of applying urethane sealant to the mortar. Differences also were noted in how each contractor would actually get up to the bell tower and do the work. BJB stated that their procedure called for workers to rappel down from the open area above the clock face to do the work while Keystone plans to use a large crane/lift vehicle and work from buckets. According to Commissioner Lana Sullivan, the difference in the two bids is in excess of $56,000, BJB being the lower bid. The Commissioners asked for and received references from each contractor and plan to verify those as soon as possible. Regardless of which contractor is awarded the contract, work is expected to begin during the first week of September and completed some four to six weeks later.
