Here is a July 1941 ad from the NYT:
Hi again Leroy. As I mentioned previously, I worked at the Astor as an usher for a short time in May, 1955 — East of Eden. I would also love to see that photo. Thanks.
Leroy, I would love to see that photo, but I'm not a member of that server. I remember you both as ushers at Loew's Valencia in Jamaica, which was just before the Astor & Victoria. Could you send me a copy privately at .com?
Picture of my brother and myself as ushers at the Astor & Victoria theaters from 1953-56
Here is a November 1931 ad from the NYT:
Here is a November 1946 ad from the NYT:
Here is an August 1929 photo from the Ben Hall book, "Best Remaining Seats":
Here is an October 1955 ad from the NYT:
Here's a 1932 view of billboard displays at the Astor and Gaiety. Note the massiveness of the Astor Hotel beyond the Astor Theatre:
The Astor and Victoria were often advertised in tandem, but with distinctly different lettering for their names. The Astor tended to get the better movies, due to its prestigious history and larger seating capacity: www.i8.photobucket.com/albums/a18/Warrengwhiz/astovic.jpg
Okay! Let's all go out for a beer! I'll have Sasparilla…gave it up 9 months ago. The best thing I ever did!
Sorry! The title is "The Proud and Profane," not "The Proud and the Profane." The WWII drama was supposed to be Paramount's answer to "From Here to Eternity," and even had one of its stars, Deborah Kerr. Filmed in B&W VistaVision, it did good business but never became an Oscar-winning blockbuster like "FHTE."
Good grief! Thanks Ed.
For the record, I was just trying to narrow the scope for the date on the photo. My memory plays tricks on me all the time and I don't think I am crazy either, but I can contribute by looking some stuff up easily at my end.
I wasn't born yet when Leroy was a doorman at the Astor & Victoria and I would not think of belittling his valuable first-hand accounts in any way.
I never make mean spirited comments as I am just not wired that way.
That's it! They couldn't use the title of the book. There was a big to do about Holden doing this part. I thought it was a good film!
The William Holden film based on "The Magnificent Bastards" was "The Proud and the Profane," co-starring Deborah Kerr. The Paramount release opened at the Astor Theatre on June 13th, 1956, according to the website of The New York Times.
Hey! Why don't we write a play…maybe we can make a movie of this? I should have not re-acted the way I did. Let bygones be bygones! However memories get distorted it's still a great experience to reminisce those days. During the 4 years I worked at the Astor and Victoria theaters (Friday 4-10, Saturday 9:45 to 5, Sunday 11:45 to 5, full-time summer months) they would show sneak previews shown especially at the Astor theater.
I remember vividly the previews (not premieres) of East of Eden, On the Waterfront, The Big Knife, The Star is Born, Meet Me In Las Vegas, Main Street to Broadway and many more. The big moguls of the Movie Companies, reviewers …etc, would attend. Customers would get the privilegeg of seeing two films for the price of one. The Criterion and Loew's State would also do the same. It was always be shown on a Monday or Tuesday with the the attendees filling out the questionaires given when they entered.
There was a film with Willaim Holden made based on the novel "The Magnificent Bastards", but the film had a different name. Many of Hollywood's big names at that time came to see this film at preview. "The McConnell Story" starring Alan Ladd and June Allyson also had the same experience. That film also had a big studded premiere. Had an embarrassing experience working that World Premiere. I was the doorman opening the limo doors when they pulled up in front of the Astor. It was alway mayhem with the photographers and the press. Sometimes the limos would come in en masse making the shuffling of opening the doors difficult. One of the limos had Natalie Wood and her mother. When the limo arrived I let out Natalie Wood and her mother, not knowing that there was someone else in the limo ready to depart. To my chagrin I closed the door on Tab Hunter as he was ready to get out. He chuckled and was very amused…but I was more or less embarrassed. I was only seventeen and something like that seemed more tragic that what it really was. Years later I had the opportunity to meet him and told him the story and again he chuckled. He also confided that that period in Hollywood was all publicity. He eneded up doing some good work later in his career. There was a film he did with Sophia Loren that I thought was one of his best films.
My wife who is 10 years younger doesn't seem to feel the importance of that era. She loves to hear the stories of my experiences. I have an older brother who worked the Copacabana when Jules Podell ran the club. I keep telling him he should write a book about the machinations that went on there. Sorry getting long-winded!
In all fairness, I'd hardly consider AlAlvarez' remarks to be an excoriation of leroyelliston. And the suggestion that one's memory might be playing tricks need not be taken as a questioning of one's sanity. My thanks to both Leroy and Al for sharing their facts and insights here for us to enjoy. Warren, your contributions to CT have been immeasurable, but you must admit that when the mood strikes, you are more than capable of administering some expert excoriation of your own!
Is it necessary to excoriate someone for a slight memory lapse about two movies shown at the Astor more than half a century ago? "The Rose Tattoo" ran about three months. "Meet Me in Las Vegas," an expensive MGM musical that had been rejected by Radio City Music Hall, lasted only a few weeks.
I'm sorry for the mistake…but that to was previewed prior to the opening. I am not crazy! Must be a more gentle way of communicating!
Leroy, I think your memory is playing games. How could MEET ME IN LAS VEGAS have played prior to THE ROSE TATTOO when it opened in March 1956? The sign over the theatre in the photo even announces the date.
THE ROSE TATTOO opened in December 1955 as Warren stated.
The film at the Victoria was "THE MAN WITH THE GOLDEN ARM"; Frank Sinantra, Kim Novak, Eleanor Parker, Darren McGavin, Arnold Stang. It was previewed around Thanksgiving in 1955, and opened in January of 1956. I was working there during my High School years as a doorman for both theaters and was a senior at Boy's High in Brooklyn. "MEET ME IN LAS VEGAS" was at the Astor Theater prior to "THE ROSE TATTOO". Earlier on this site I gave a history of my experiences working there at the Astor & Victoria. They both were owned by the same company (Cty Entertaiment Corporation) and had a interlocking alley between both theaters. Great time!
Since the marquee mentions Oscar nominations, that places the photo after February 19, 1956 and before March 13 when MEET ME IN LAS VEGAS opened at the Astor. Magnani won that year on March 21. Sinatra didn't win for the movie with the Saul Bass logo.
I can't give an exact date for this photo, but "The Rose Tattoo" opened at the Astor Theatre on December 12, 1955 and held-over into 1956. The movie at the adjacent Victoria Theatre, which is identified on the marquee only by its famous Saul Bass logo, opened December 15, 1955, and also held-over into 1956: www.i8.photobucket.com/albums/a18/Warrengwhiz/astorrose.jpg
Whe I was a doorman during High School years 1952-56 the early show was 85 cents and the after 5pm show was $1.10 – $1.25. I remember having a date and going to the Capitol Theater to see "From Here to Eternity" and the ticket was $1.80. I was completely wide-eyed when I saw that price. That time you could go the the "Gaety Deli" on 46th Street and get a humongous Corn Beef Sandwich for 75 cents. Or you could go to "Hectors Cafeteria" and get the Friday Fish Cakes and Spaghetti for 60 cents. I was only making 95 cent an hour though! If I remember correctly Stalag 17 was playing at the Astor.
Two Shows Daily, All Seats Reserved. All evenings, $1.10 to $2.20. Weekday matinees, 75 cents to $1.10. Saturday, Sunday, and holiday matinees, 75 cents to $1.65:

How to sharpen up your negotiating skills.
Just about all of us have, at some time or another been presnt at a meeting where, despite there being a fixed agenda everyone wades in with their own personal agenda and the subject of the question changes every minute. The consequence of this is that issues are left buried, evasive answers are accepted and inconsistencies go unchallenged. The ideal situation in any meeting especially in a business meeting is to concentrate on effective questioning.
Here are a few guidelines on how to make the most effective use of questions in negotiations:
1. Prepare your questions and prepare answers to theirs.
If you have had any negotiation skills training one of the most important things you will have been taught is to spend time working on your questions ahead of the meeting. Also brainstorm what they might ask you. Sometimes the latter can be the most important. Prepare for the ten worst questions you could ever possibly get. For more information just go here.
2. When asking your questions, think strategically, and drill down.
Think strategically about your questions. Prioritize the areas that you want to cover and apportion the time accordingly. Don't get distracted.
Also, one question unlocks another. A good journalist knows that good interview involves a series of questions that drill down into the issue until you get the answer.
Finally, your string of questions needs to be efficient and effective. So prepare your string of drilling questions and see if you can be more efficient in using them. Will three questions strike the right balance of keeping them happy and getting to the issue? Are there some really good questions that can help unpack the issue or get round the problem?
3. Don't be frightened of asking the same question again
So, you've asked a good question and they have not given a satisfactory answer. Ask the question again but in a different way. For example, you might have asked 'Do you have any issues with our payment terms and conditions?' You don't get a proper answer so you ask it again, but this time you say, 'Have you had a chance to look at our payment terms? Is there anything that makes you uncomfortable?' And then a third time 'What is your ideal situation regarding remuneration?'
If you use your questions like a stick to beat the other side, you won't get anywhere. Don't relentlessly pursue your agenda through your questions at the expense of being flexible. Listen to the answers and act accordingly.

Akoya pearls are produced from Akoya mussels. These mussels may be beaded with as much as 5 mother-of-pearls for a greater production. However, producers are extremely careful about their final product. They planned to avoid any malformations because of over-production. To achieve this, they only place 2 beads for each mussel. The production is slow with this particular practice. However, the pearls collected are usually the best of their type.

Figure Out How To Charge For Your Ebook
It's one thing to compose an ebook and in addition have it ready to sell, but for it to become successful, you need to come up with the correct price. A low price suggests low value in people's minds and therefore a low incentive to buy. A lower price also means you need to make a lot more sales to make the same money. If you initially set the price tag too high, however, competitive pressure will force you to keep lowering your price. Those who purchased your book at a increased price will be annoyed when the price is lowered. I suggest going to http://joshkotsay.com/web-hosting/hostgator-review to read more about this.
Setting the proper price is a vital aspect of bringing your ebook to market. The first and most important rule is that your ebook will have to never be underpriced. What you want is to set the price at the top end of the affordability range of the purchasing audience. If you see that the ebook is not selling, you can then lower the price – after having ensured that the book was initially promoted heavily enough. The reason it isn't selling, might be from lack of promotion instead of too high a price. Tons of marketing activity should accompany your ebook launch, and once that's over a price-reduction strategy may be utilized. Choosing the right price is quite hard because of ebooks still being something relatively new.
Given that loads of folks don't even know the meaning of digital, finding the right price for an ebook is really a lot different from a printed book from a bookstore. Bookstores offer a visual in addition to a tactile browsing experience. Plenty of people relish and value handling a book, looking at it, feeling it and reading from random pages. An assortment of factors figure out these books' prices, like design, production and marketing and advertising costs. Although an ebook can be viewed on your monitor, it can additionally be printed out and form a pretty hefty book. Expensive too, when you count the paper and ink.
The prime determinant of what you pay for a book should be what it contains, the ideas in the text. What commercial value does one attach to a book that transforms people's lives? How much more is the thought worth, than the cost of paper and ink? What makes a book important is the value placed on the words, that are written. If longer term success is your goal, you might want to first garner a following selling your first ebook or two at a loss.
After you have a reputation you can market your later books for far greater profits. Satisfied customers who return for more is what you are after.
Building Your Personal Brand with Social Media
How quickly and easily you are able to adapt to fluid business environments will work for or against you. If you are familiar with lazymarketingblog and have been around the world of business on the net, then you should have a solid idea of what we are talking about. One very common strategy is hiring freelancers, but for most that is only possible with existing business profits. We understand if you are not quite at that point, though, but there is much available that is very low cost or no cost. There is nothing more frustrating than learning the hard way, and we are talking about getting educated about any new marketing or business method, first. We make that cautionary statement only because it will pay to be smart before you even start looking for hired help. When it comes to building a brand and marketing yourself, every business professional understands the allure of social media. However, in order to make the most out of social media today, it's crucial that you apply the right steps at the right time. Given below are a few proven tips to help you create a foothold in social media and build your brand. Regional Focus: Social media is growing at a rapid pace across the world, which is an opportunity for anyone that's looking out to capture local audiences and build a brand on a regional level. In order to achieve this, you need to remember that people access information differently in different locations. This is why it's important that you get strong regional advice when going global. This will give you a fair idea on how people access information and what kind of platforms they depend on. Since this varies from country to country, having the right person giving you advice is crucial. You can use a local colleague to make sure your message is tailor made for the particular market you're targeting. If you want to make an impact with your business on a higher level, then you shouldn't ignore the regional importance. Give them a Reason to Share: We all know that social media is about sharing; every person that engages in it shares something or the other with their friends/contacts. There is actually no social media without effective sharing, which is why you should give your audience a reason to share. Your brand building can be taken to a whole new level when you instill a strong confidence in your target audience with your approach, ultimately pushing them to share. In other words, if you're not going to give a viable reason for people to engage with you, they simply won't. You need a lot of variety going on in your offerings; your menu card should offer interesting stuff to your audience so that they feel compelled to share. The more your stuff gets shared across various social media platforms, the more effective will be the returns that you get from your brand building efforts. There are critically unique aspects that are encountered with business because they are on the web. The internet can really keep you on your toes, or it should, because that is the history of this environment. If you are smart about how you go about your business, then you will understand the implications in terms of diversifying. Since we are covering information regarding visit site and other points, you have to maintain proper perspective. However, you really should look at all things in terms of what you can do with them in the future, or if there could ever be anything that could possibly be a negative. Anything new to you that seems to be a candidate for your business is worth testing, at least that much. Be Smart: Your approach to social media needs to be highly smart, because when you're using social media on a large scale, you won't be able to control everything. If you're running a big company, it wouldn't be possible for you to monitor and control the social activity of each employee. Although you can have systems setup that would inform your social media users on critical issues, your main guiding force should be the 'be smart' motto. Rising above the others in social media and strengthening your personal brand is something that requires both brains and brawns, so make sure you're having a balanced approach towards everything. Last, make it a point to utilize social media channels to help your audience and provide useful content.
Overcoming Some Typical Beginner's Mistakes With Online Marketing
What you are going to learn has been based on the very simple idea of putting a bunch of different parts of marketing together that people aren't usually looking at. The fact is that you might read them and think "there's nothing novel about that" and that is okay. If you aren't yet doing them or haven't thought of them in that way before now, that is entirely something else. Another point about online marketers in general is they seem to get too comfortable once they find something that works for them. This is a decision you will have to make for yourself when the time comes but really, it's better to always be on the lookout for ideas and things that you can take advantage of and use reasonably well to help yourself with your marketing. More information about this is available on 321seo.blogspot.com.
Evidence of how confused many people are when they enter the world of IM can be found at any marketing forum, where threads such as "How do I get started?" are common.
Most of the time there are a few core problems going on, and one of them involves strategy – or chasing the wrong one. Overextending yourself is an easy thing to do online, as it's so easy to put up a blog, website or Web 2.0 property, but not so easy to build it up so that it's profitable. You have tons of time to try and conquer the world, but you will be more effective when you do it one site at a time. Every new project will mean you have less time to work on existing ones, so you're better off keeping it simple at first.
Now let's look at an idea that is similar to the one we just went over, but is more specific for the following reasons. This has to do with product creation and becoming highly specialized in what you do. The products that you make for the newbies are actually easy to make. They do not have to be that detailed so don't be intimidated! Profitable niches are what you need to focus upon. The more you can find a better. Then you simply make a series of newbie products for those niches. The newbies can be sold your product, which should either be a downloadable series of videos, or a DVD set that they can purchase as a physical product.
If you have been using Facebook and Twitter in your marketing, then that is great and you should continue. However, the social media giants and search engine giants still do not have all the traffic, and that should be a bit of good news. So let's take a moment and focus on that for some important reasons. Niche forums are just one example but serve to perfectly illustrate this point. So you know the people at a niche forum will have great traffic that wants that kind of information. Then consider that many at those forums will also have a social media presence at any number of social sites. Position yourself with the end game in mind, and that is to move them into your marketing funnel. Instead, think of all of the different marketing methods you can test out. Anything you decide is fine including nothing, as always it is up to you. Whatever you do, try to implement some diversity into your marketing and find ways to use it to save your business and make positive changes.

Editor's Note: Dr. Ellenmorris Tiegerman is the founder and executive director of the School for Language and Communication Development in Glen Cove.
Most parents have very clear expectations about how their children should
perform and/or excel in school. Sometimes parents have unrealistic expectations which may create school problems.
Parents who are very demanding usually communicate by pressuring the child to achieve and to study. Parents may also feel the peer pressure to provide the best schools or classes for their children. The problem is that the child often gets lost in the parent's plan for their child's success.
When parents become so focused on grades that they ignore the feelings,
interests and abilities of their children, they create a situation which is often
disastrous. Children may become noncompliant and resistant because they do
not want to do the work under such circumstances. They may also develop a
range of physical symptoms from headaches to stomachaches to school phobias.
When children cannot meet their parents expectations, they may also
develop low self esteem resulting in anxiety and depression. Parents need to ask
themselves, "Are these expectations realistic for my child?"
Parents should engage the child in a discussion about his interests and his
feelings about school. If children are feeling insecure to begin with the additional pressure to perform only makes things worse. Learning needs to be supported at home and children need to be encouraged not terrorized and/or threatened about getting a perfect grade on every exam.
Parents need to turn down the pressure and take a look at the supports that are being provided at home. Is the child disorganized? Does he need help arranging his clothes as well as his work space? Does he have difficulty meeting timelines and completing activities? How much television does he watch when he gets home?
Is the home environment quiet, tranquil and nurturing? The answer to this question is most likely no since most parents are themselves rushed and stressed!
When parents communicate and/or transmit their own stresses from work and their relationships to their children, the home environment becomes a pressure cooker rather than a health spa. Before parents set any expectations for their children they really need to analyze lifestyle issues at home. Expectations require that children be part of the decision making process, otherwise they will become noncompliant.
Find out what your child likes and does not like about school and focus on his interests as you encourage him to do better in school. He always needs the support of his family and sometimes extra tutoring or special services from school professionals.

chew on this

Burger King may have come up with a great way to kick rival McDonald's when it's down: Go after the Golden Arches' signature product.
That's what Burger King is doing with new improvements to its three-month-old Big King sandwich, which now will have 0.8 ounces more beef than the Big Mac. The chain has been testing the beefier new Big King at 200 locations in South Florida and experiencing a 10 percent jump in guest-satisfaction scores, said the Motley Fool.
And this week, Burger King began bragging about its newly improved burger in advertising, saying that "size matters. That's why the Big King just got bigger. Now with a quarter pound of beef" vs. McDonald's 3.2 ounces in the Big Mac, "freshly fire grilled."Continue reading...

Take that, Hamburglar and all your little mischief-making fiends: McDonald's may already be back in the U.S. just one month after poor sales brought about the departure of the head of its U.S. operations.
McDonald's surprised the restaurant world by announcing a 2.5-percent jump in comparable-store sales in the United States, after analysts had expected a U.S. drop in sales of as much as 1 percent for the month.
The chain attributed the unexpected rise to the "ongoing popularity" of its breakfast in the U.S. along with "balance across everyday value offerings, premium menu options including the limited-time Cheddar Bacon Onion sandwiches, and the beverage lineup," according to McDonald's press release. Holiday cheer, despite stepping up around Thanksgiving, didn't really move the needle on sales.Continue reading...

It was leaked that it's coming this month, and now it's been confirmed: The McRib sandwich is returning to McDonald's American restaurants on Dec. 17 in a year-end boost for the chain and its new US head, Jeff Stratton. Let the line-ups begin and the McRib Locator get started.

executive decision
Posted by Dale Buss on November 27, 2012 05:16 PM
Whatever McDonald's next US CEO, Jeff Stratton, does after he takes over from ousted McD's veteran Jan Fields on Dec. 1st, outsiders agree that it'll probably involve significant new menu launches and refreshing old favorites. As in most businesses, it's product innovation that provides the most effective promotional opportunities and does the most to drive sales and pique consumer interest.
Especially in an increasingly competitive environment where Americans seem to have grown inured to a simple value pitch, expect the icon of fast food to turn more, and more often, to variations of its signature products, and other new items, to reverse the October U.S. same-store sales slide that cost Fields her job.
Some analysts are suggesting that Stratton, a four-decade veteran of McDonald's who championed sustainability in his role as Chief Restaurant Officer, will rely on his expertise in operations to shore up the bottom line and that he'll turn to improved marketing to boost the top line. But in picking apart the reasons for this year's slide and putting together ways to reverse it, Stratton also must balance menu expansion with the traditional simplicity at the heart of McDonald's business model.
In 2012, the chain relied more on "limited-time" menu additions in the US such as Chicken McBites and a Cheddar Bacon Onion burger that was introduced in October. The pandemonium-causing McRib sandwich, meanwhile, is rumored to return in December — and not a moment too soon. As Peter McGuinness at DDB Chicago, McDonald's agency, commented about the pre-Christmas McRib timing in a reference to Coca-Cola's classic holiday theme, "We don't really do polar bears."Continue reading...

As global economic bellwethers go, McDonald's sales results probably rank right up there with oil prices and consumer-confidence measures. So its shareholders, analysts and executives aren't exactly lovin' it when the company reports lackluster results, as it did for the third quarter.
The fast-food leader reported weaker-than-expected earnings for the period as it battled a weak global economy and accommodated more budget-minded consumers from Europe to China. Both sales and profits fell during the quarter, a rarity for McDonald's.
Of course, McDonald's results aren't directly synonymous with the status of the world's appetite for quick fare. The stronger dollar hurt international sales too. Also, competitors in many markets have been upping their game lately, including both Burger King and Wendy's in the United States, and the new strains from rivals also are reflected in McDonald's results.Continue reading...

McDonald's recent emphasis on limited-time menu offerings not only is attracting customers to come in for their favorite menu items before they disappear for at least a little while. The promotional strategy is helping McDonald's quickly generate traffic for new "value" menu items in the U.S., Europe and elsewhere.
Analyst Jeffrey Bernstein of Barclays Capital sees emphasizing more low-priced menu items and platforms in both European and U.S. markets where many consumers are struggling financially as a smart way to meet immediate financial concerns while introducing them to non-value menu items. It's a classic sales strategy — get their nose in the tent — that's paying off handsomely for McD's.
"After the introduction of value platforms, customers will often heavily use the value menu based on the perception that the platform is short-term in nature and will soon no longer be an option," he wrote, according to Nation's Restaurant News. "Once customers realize the value emphasis is longer-term in nature, they increasingly use other portions of the menu, helping in the recovery of both the average check and restaurant margin."Continue reading...

Collin seized my arm and hauled me along the levee bike path. "Can you grab your gun quickly if you need to, Leslie?" he asked. His head was in perpetual motion, surveying our surroundings.
"It's in my back pocket."
"Good. You might want to hang onto it."
"I take it this is worse than you thought?"
"Oh, yeah." Something crackled in the bushes and Collin shoved me behind him. We stood like that for five interminably long seconds of tense silence until the bird rustled its way to the top of the bush. It cheeped at us. Collin exhaled, then grabbed me again and propelled me along with him.
"What are we going to do? We have to help my Dad."
"Do you have a death wish?"
"No, but I'm not leaving him!" The thought of him being trapped with creatures like I saw the other night scared me beyond belief. My stomach was a cold pit of ice.
Collin stopped short and I tripped over him. He cursed. "Leslie, you might not have a choice," he said.
I looked up and our path was blocked.
Three red-eyed, mismatched creatures stared back at us.

steel prices,
Charles Bradford,
sheet hikes,
catherine ngai
NEW YORK North American steel mills have kicked off a third round of flat-rolled price hikes as extended lead times, labor and production outages as well as low inventory levels give the market some upward support.
Hamilton, Ontario-based ArcelorMittal Dofasco Inc. has raised base prices on its steel sheet products for all new spot orders by Canadian $20 ($19.10) per net ton effective immediately, citing devaluation of the Canadian dollar, according to an internal memo dated June 25.
Customer sources told AMM that its U.S. counterpart, ArcelorMittal USA LLC, also has been informing customers of higher prices, with its hot-rolled coil now at $32.50 per hundredweight ($650 per ton) and cold-rolled and galvanized product at $37.50 per cwt ($750 per ton), although AMM has not seen an official announcement from the Chicago-based steelmaker.
Other mills were widely expected to follow the move, which comes just two weeks after a second round of hikes announced earlier this month (amm.com, June 13) and within five weeks of the original increase of the cycle in May (amm.com, May 23).
Rumors that a third round of increases was in the works have been circulating for more than a week, but speculation heated up earlier this week when West Chester, Ohio-based AK Steel Corp. was forced to temporarily idle its blast furnace in Middletown, Ohio, after an unexpected mechanical failure (amm.com, June 24).
That unexpected outage, coupled with the continued lockout at U.S. Steel Corp.s Lake Erie Works, Essar Algomas potential labor stoppage at the end of July (amm.com, June 20) and ArcelorMittal USAs planned C6 blast furnace outage in Cleveland in the fall (amm.com, June 19), has given the sheet market some strong fundamental support, sources said.
Add that to a stronger-than-expected automotive sector and low inventory levels at service centers, and market participants are expecting strength in domestic sheet pricing to continue through the traditionally slower summer season.
"Things are going to be different this summer," Charles Bradford of New York-based Bradford Research Inc. told AMM. "Keep in mind the reason for the slowdown was usually the automotive companies taking off a few weeks. But theyve already announced that theyll take less time off this year because automotive is so strong."
Bradford added that with the July scrap outlook leaning toward the upside (amm.com, June 26), mills may find even more support as they look to push through increases.
"Things are tightening up for sure," a Midwest service center source said. "Before, hikes were to establish a floor. This time around, its supply based. The mills have been very strict on pricing, with quotes good only for that day. No one has cracked."
SteelBenchmarkers latest report, released June 26, confirmed the higher pricing, with U.S. hot-rolled band rising 2.5 percent to $668 per tonne ($606 per ton) from $652 per tonne ($592 per ton) two weeks earlier, and cold-rolled coil up 1.8 percent to $779 per tonne ($707 per ton) from $765 per tonne ($694 per ton) in the same comparison.
Others point out, however, that with imports set to hit U.S. shores later this summer and early fall, the upward momentum could be short-lived.
"The mills dont care about imports. Their mentality right now is: Too bad, so sad, well get it while we can," said another Midwest service center source. "If the momentum shifts, prices will be hammered down again. My feeling is that the mills will keep pushing it as far as they can."

Middleware Matters
Voices, January 21, 2010
Next Monday's issue of S.I.N. will include two features about the use of middleware— the plumbing that helps software applications communicate over a network. In a case study featuring Direct Edge, the electronic communications network discusses how the company utilized middleware messaging software from technology provider 29West to decrease latency.
"Once we got into the realm where we became the third largest market center and it became apparent to us that we needed to make sure we chose the right partner for this component of our system, the hurdle was dealing with all of that hyper-growth while making the necessary changes," says Direct Edge CTO Steve Bonnano.
In a second article, industry observers and executives from Tervela, 29West and Real Time Innovations (RTI) elaborated on why middleware has become a priority for the trading sector. Decreasing latency has become the main driver behind technology purchases, particularly when it comes to investing in new middleware solutions.
Some clients are now trying to optimize every single point of messaging latency, according to Scott Reed, an executive with Accenture's trading and risk management practice. "If you think about this as a vehicle running down a highway, the delays that can happen start with the car leaving the driveway and go all the way through to the final destination," he said.
"Messaging is in fact one of the most critical dimensions of the architecture within capital markets," said Reed. "We can talk about the front end and how traders trade, we can talk about how databases are used to extract and store data, but the messaging that moves components around from trading applications down to risk applications and vice versa... that is the area we believe will continue to see a huge upward tick and adoption."
Silicon Valley-based RTI, whose client base has predominantly been in the government sector, has already begun answering demands from the financial services sector for better middleware. Despite the fact that the firm opened its downtown New York City office in September 2008-the same month that Lehman Brothers collapsed-Schneider has a positive outlook.
"The gymnastics the market went through were not fun but recently things are going very well. We closed out a record year, record quarter and record month in December," he said. "Things are looking much better. There's a real understanding out there that middleware and performance is important and people are seeing that the promises need to be fulfilled by the actuality."
Check back with S.I.N. on Monday to read the full articles.

Bosco Wong defends Myolie Wu after she gets flak online
As a joke, Hong Kong actress Myolie Wu posted up a photo of herself hugging a man on Weibo last week and announced that she has "found Mr Right". It created plenty of buzz online when netizens realised that the man in question is TVB actor Johnson Lee.
To everyone's surprise, she recently admitted that the man is indeed Johnson, but also commented: "Sorry, you have been tricked!" This raised the ire of netizens who started accusing her of deliberately creating news and tricking everyone.
In response, Myolie quickly explained that she meant she had found a group of good friends whom she can share woe or weal with. "Johnson said I'm too serious, and should play a joke once in a while," she added. "But I promise I won't trick you guys again!"
There were even earlier rumours that Johnson had been wooing Myolie for three months, and an insider source revealed that this trick was planned by Johnson, who wanted to use her name to generate buzz for his new show Spicy King, but didn't realise the consequences.
After receiving so much criticism, Myolie has been constantly apologizing to netizens, and promised to announce a press conference with her boyfriend when she is really dating.
Her ex-boyfriend, Hong Kong actor Bosco Wong, who was also recently in media spotlight for his relationship with Vanessa Yeung, felt bad for her current predicament and defended her when queried by reporters. He said that he did not believe the rumours initially when they spread, and added that the trick must be Johnson's idea entirely.

Reality TV stars to be at Fremont student fundraiser
Christi Lukasiak and her dancing daughter, Chloe, make a guest appearance at the Ellis School later this month.
The two stars from the popular Lifetime reality series "Dance Moms" will make a stop at the school's gymnasium on Saturday, April 20, to help raise money to purchase a water filling station water cooler for the school.
The event will be held from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Admission is $40, with $15 from each ticket sold going to the school for the new water cooler, which will replace the school's existing water vending machine, according to Jodie Antoine, school librarian and student council advisor.
Now in its third season, "Dance Moms" follows the lives of competitive young dancers and their sometimes outspoken moms from the Abby Lee Dance Company in Pennsylvania.
Fans of the show are excited about the arrival of Chloe and her mom.
"The kids have been talking about it in class, online and face-to-face. Everyone keeps asking me if the dance moms are really coming to Ellis' and I have to say that they are," Antoine said.
The student council hopes to raise the $1,000 needed to buy the new water cooler before the eighth-graders head off to high school.
Antoine said the school's water vending machine costs a lot to run, doesn't run efficiently and wastes plastic water bottles.
Bringing stars from "Dance Moms" to the school is an idea that started with seventh-grader Kylie Grenier.
Kylie, a member of the school's student council, said she e-mailed Lukasiak's agent about the idea.
"I never thought that this would turn into anything, but I figured I might just give it shot. I'm so glad I did," she said.
Kylie brought the idea to Antoine and asked if she would look into it further. Antoine then contacted the booking agent and was able to make arrangements for the appearance, which is open to the public, and not just Fremont residents.

The Austin craft beer scene has something worthy of a toast after local breweries brought home five medals from last weekend's Great American Beer Festival.
UPDATE (June 15, 2013): Gov. Perry signed the bills outlined below into law on June 14.
If your idea of a South American coffee grower is a mustachioed peasant in a wool pancho, you're due for a quick history lesson from Casa Brasil's Joel Shuler.
Update (May 20): The five beer bills were approved by the Texas House of Representatives today and could be signed into law by Gov. Perry as early as Friday.
Join us for a special Tribune happy hour as we kick off the Tribune's Spring Membership Drive, May 7-10, and gear up for the third annual Texas Tribune Festival, Sept. 27-29.
Liberty Tavern will host Hops & Grain for a "Meet The Brewer" reception on Thursday, March 7 from 6 to 8pm.
Help us ring in the last two hours of Amplify Austin, the 24-hour citywide giving festival! Bring friends, coworkers, family members and neighbors to help us cross the finish line.
Last February, a group of St. Edwards's University graduates went on a brewery tour. They looked around and noticed they were not only part of a small number of women at the brewery to begin with, they were also the only women there not on a guy's arm.
If you've lived in Austin for more than, say, one week, you know better than to head to Sixth Street for your late night fun, so leave downtown bar hopping to the amateurs and check out five of the best déclassé watering holes north of downtown.
There's a small warehouse off N. Lamar, near Yost Automotive and Titaya's Restaurant, where Yoed Anis and his crew perform Japanese processes so old that the dates are lost in time. Anis makes sake, the ancient Japanese alcohol made from rice, right here in Austin.
A lot of fuss has been made over the "craft cocktail" craze.
Austin is proving itself to be a beer town. With so many brewpubs, beer bars and craft breweries, it's hard not to get caught up in the heady fun. But with this many beers to try, where does an aspiring beer nerd start?

Best place in the area to buy exotic/specialty fruits and vegetables
- t
- thebadsleepwell Jul 25, 2012 12:35 PM
Good afternoon everyone- I am an amateur cook who is working on a cookbook project that involves a fair amount of specialty produce. (Things like micro greens, edible flowers, wide assortment of mushrooms, etc). Does anyone know of a great place to find these things in the area? Or on the flip side does anyone know if LA Specialty Produce or Aztec Specialty Produce will sell to me as an individual (and not a restaurant/business)? Thank you in advance for any help! Cheers- Justin
Thank you for the help. Does anyone have any info on Aztec or LA Specialty Produce? I havent been able to get them to call or email me back.
I would love to find such a place but don't think there is anything, at least on the retail side, in the Valley. You can find some things at Whole Foods, and sometimes at farmers' markets. As for LeeLee, they do carry interesting Asian greens and vegetables, but I've never seen micro greens, edible flowers, etc.
I went to a farmer's market in Old Town Scottsdale on a recent trip and saw some guy selling edible flowers. There were a lot of interesting fruits and vegetables but nothing too out of the ordinary, but then I wasn't really paying attention since I was only visiting and just happened upon it. It's worth the visit to see who's selling what in your backyard!
Try the Asian markets...Lee Lee or the market at the Chinese Cultural Center. You might find mushrooms, pea shoots, and such. Also, Ajs, Whole Foods, and surprisingly the Fry's on Tatum and Shea has some exotic fruits.
Trader Joe's actually sells organic microgreens. They come in a flat plastic clamshell type container for about $3. I love them in salmon-salad lavosh wraps. They often have pea shoots next to the micro greens as well. It might be worth browsing their refrigerated produce case. Sometimes things get hidden in there and aren't really obvious at first glance.
I think I saw edible flowers at AJ's once. They may not have them all the time though. Might be worth calling to see if they have them or know where you can get them. AJ's also has a selection of dried mushrooms. I made a mushroom risotto with all sorts of dried mushrooms from AJ's for New Year's Eve dinner.
Mekong is also a good market for Asian type ingredients including mushrooms.
A quick Google search will lead you to online vendors, as well, although they are quite expensive with the overnight shipping factor.

"Now that we know what we want, let's start over," Allen said, pulling a piece of ham from one of the dishes to one of the smaller plates, proceeding to cut it into bite-sized bits. "I'm Allen Bourke."
"I'm Nicollina," she answered, unfurling her legs and scooting up a bit, eyeing the ham Allen still worked at while she took one of the glasses and sipped its contents. She cleared her throat, chewed her upper lip, and looked everywhere but at him. "Nicollina Cartwright."
Stopping mid-cut, Allen cringed inwardly at his oversight in putting two and two together sooner. He looked up to find a blush as rosy as the one on her ass had settled across her cheeks. "As in Senator James Cartwright?"
Every red flag in Allen's world flew to full-mast at once and while everything in him screamed at him to make his apologies, get up, and leave never to look back, another piece of Allen whispered to his heart and teased him. It told him that part of his life was over, to stop worrying about it. That everything would be fine if he'd just allow it to be.
"Yes, one in the same. Are you still so sure you want to play?" Setting her glass back down, she clasped her hands together in her lap so tightly her knuckles turned white. "I'll understand if you don't. Who the hell decent wants to play hide and seek with someone like me? Can I have something a little stronger? Than water?"
Aside from the ramifications that could erupt from pursuing this woman against his better judgment, there was certainly no danger of Allen becoming a sugar daddy in this relationship. Her trust fund probably entailed enough money to buy and run a small island for years. She most definitely wasn't after his money. How the hell had he missed how much she favored James? Probably because he hadn't seen James in nearly thirty years and didn't keep a running tab on politics now, although he was sure up until a few years ago James had kept extremely close tabs on him.

In the latest star news, LINDSAY LOHAN's assistant has spoken out on the actress' state after her recent arrest… and he thinks she "desperately" needs help.
First, there was Lindsay Lohan's recent arrest for assault—she allegedly punched a female psychic in the eye at an NYC club last Thursday—then there were several other recent reports about a serious vodka-drinking problem and her getting wasted again, on top of her three criminal charges from her car accident last June.
Now, her assistant, Gavin Doyle, thinks she needs some major help to put her back on track.
A very worried Doyle tweeted the evidently troubled actress on Friday:
"@lindsaylohan after bailing you out last night I HOPE and PRAY you get the help you so desperately need."
He added:
"We are ALL rooting for you. xxx."
Hopefully she seeks for it before she gets jailed again for a revoked probation.
Do you agree that Lindsay needs to get help?

if you are a sushi lovers like us-visit that \\\susi \Bar.good quality very reasonable prices
This place has been here for many years. They are always friendly with lovely reliably good fresh food. They have small gifts for children on the way out which is a nice touch.
Interesting little place on Parramatta Rd - nice sushi but the service is a bit slow...but you can't complain because the "warn" you on the menu....
Surprise local gem that serves up very good and authentic Japanese. The staff try very hard although can be "slow but friendly" as advertised out front. Definitely book on weekends.
When you think Japanese you don't think Annandale or Leichhardt area but this is a little treasure. Service can be slow at times but food is good and prices very reasonable.
The Chasoba salad is a winner, the chef is friendly, the fish is fresh...maybe the service is a little slow. I always overload on Wasabi and Sake!
I love their Chasoba salad, yum!!!
didn have good experience! they brought food with cooked fly on the meat. ewwwww never went back ever since. Service is really slow as well.
Fresh sashimis
Great food!

These Stocks Might Have Another Gear
Dan is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
These three companies have been performing exceptionally well over the past several years. Better yet, there have been no signs of a slowdown. However, that does not mean the coast is clear. Risks exist, and these risks should be considered in order to avoid taking a large hit to your portfolio.
A focus on quality
CarMax (NYSE: KMX) is primarily a used vehicle retailer, but it also sells new cars and offers auto services as well as financing. In regards to quality, CarMax prides itself on:
Honest and transparent financing (you see offers the same time a salesman does)
Quality certification (125-point inspection)
Fixed commissions
Full service history report
Five-day money-back guarantee
30 top brands in one location
95% of customers would recommend the company to a friend
CarMax currently has over 100 locations, and it continues to grow. Locations were recently added in Colorado, Florida, Texas, Virginia, and Georgia. CarMax plans on opening 13 stores in 2013, as well as 10 to 15 stores in 2015 and 2016. As long as the economy holds, this looks like a realistic growth rate.
Though CarMax is a well-run operation with an exceptional business model, there are challenges. Competitors are offering many promotions, which has the potential to lead to market share losses. Higher inventory has also led to lower pricing. New vehicle sales have especially slowed. Fortunately, used vehicle sales have held up, but margins are lower on used vehicles.
Looking at the big picture, CarMax has seen consistent revenue improvements over the past four years, and its net margin of 3.90% is solid for the industry. However, the stock is trading at 25 times earnings, making it expensive relative to peers. CarMax also does not pay a dividend, and its debt-to-equity ratio of 2.18 is high.
Strategic expansion
AutoNation (NYSE: AN) holds a market cap of $6 billion, and it is currently trading at 18 times earnings. The company's net margin of 2.03% is respectable for the industry, and buybacks are commonplace. However, AutoNation does not pay a dividend, and the company's debt-to-equity ratio of 2.49 could be better. The short position on this stock is also relatively high at 7.10%.
AutoNation has seen revenue improve over the past three years, and earnings have improved over the past four.
You might be wondering why the short position is high. Put simply, AutoNation, and its peers, have been performing well as a result of low interest rates. The good news for longs is that Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke hinted that even with the taper, interest rates are expected to remain low for a long time to come. The bad news is that when interest rates increase, it is likely to impact companies like AutoNation.
AutoNation is attempting to diversify its operations as much as possible, and it is looking to expand its high-margin services segment. AutoNation also aims to expand its reach by opening new stores in places like Mexico and Brazil.
Betting on luxury
As stocks and real estate appreciate, the rich get richer. Or, the former rich recapture their wealth. Regardless, with many people seeing increases in discretionary income, more luxury cars are being sold. Penske Automotive Group (NYSE: PAG) second-quarter results provide the proof.
Revenue increased 11.6%, earnings jumped 26.8%, and same-store sales increased by 11.5%. New vehicle revenue and used vehicle revenue were both impressive, with gains of 12.7% and 15.5%, respectively. Additionally, Services and Parts revenue increased 8.1%, and Finance and Insurance revenue improved by 17.9%. The only negative was in Fleet and Wholesale, which saw revenue decline 10.5%.
As you can see, Penske has various revenue streams, which is one of the reasons it is appealing to many investors. It also offers 40 luxury brands, 25,000 cars, and 30 collision repair centers. Apparently, that was not enough for Penske.
It recently acquired Western Star Trucks Australia, a commercial vehicle distributor, which give it strong exposure to New Zealand and Southeast Asia. Penske expects this acquisition to add $420 million to $460 million in revenue and $0.10 to $0.14 to earnings annually.
Like its peers, Penske has seen consistent earnings improvements over the past four years.
As long as interest rates remain at record lows, all three companies have significant upside potential. When interest rates eventually increase, or perhaps earlier depending on the broader market's reaction to Federal Reserve tapering of its $85 billion per month bond-buying program, all three stocks are expected to fall. At that time, thanks to strong diversification, Penske would likely be the most resilient of the three.

This is actually pretty cool. It's an inexpensive way to add a high-viz front sight to your shotgun. It does snap onto the barrel fairly easy, with just careful finger strength and after 50 rounds fired, it hasn't budged. NOTE: This sight is designed to work with a "plain bead front sight" on your existing shotgun. If you have anything more than a single bead, you will need to make modification to either the gun or the hi-viz sight.
