Don't believe everything you hear about Chrysler's sorry state, says Sergio Marchionne.
Chrysler Group LLC, where the Italian-Canadian Fiat boss is chief executive officer, is said to be bleeding horrendous amounts of cash as sinking sales threaten to turn it into a niche auto maker. Its turnaround strategy - a mystery until Mr. Marchionne officially unveils it on Nov. 4 at Chrysler's headquarters in Auburn Hills, Mich. - is bound to be a slow, excruciating process due to a nearly bare product pipeline. The chances of Chrysler making money any time soon are about zero. A second bankruptcy is not out of the question.
Not so, Mr. Marchionne insisted in an interview this week at Fiat SpA's headquarters in Torino. "I'm back, I'm alive and I'm kicking," he said, referring to his view that Chrysler's revival is more real than theoretical in spite of the lack of vehicle development under Chrysler's previous owner, Cerberus Capital Management.
Chrysler is even headed for an initial public offering some time after 2010, Mr. Marchionne said.
I'm back, I'm alive and I'm kicking. Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne
Chrysler, he insisted, is already pulling itself out of the mud, only five months after Fiat took a 20-per-cent stake and full management control of the company. "I can see us making money in the next 24 months," he predicted. Any profit would be on an operating level (EBIT, or earnings before interest and taxes), not necessarily net profits.
The earnings will come, he said, "because we have decided not to flog inventory, because we're disciplined about production, because we're going to try not to discount the vehicles. If [discounts are]the only way I can sell them, I'd prefer not to produce them because I'm not making any money."
Chrysler's already depressed sales plummeted again in September. They were down 42 per cent over the same month a year earlier, giving it a mere 8.3 per cent of the U.S. auto market, down from 9.5 per cent at the beginning of the year, according to Autodata Corp.
Speaking to reporters last week in Auburn Hills, outside of Detroit, Mr. Marchionne attributed the sales downturn to the wind-down of the Cash for Clunkers program and reduced incentive spending. "We are not bleeding like people said we are," he said.
If [discounts are]the only way I can sell them, I'd prefer not to produce them because I'm not making any money. Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne
Some analysts expect a North American sales rebound. In a note published Wednesday, UBS's auto analysts noted that U.S. auto inventories are unusually low - Chrysler's sits at about 120,000 - and are poised to leap. "We continue to think restocking in the U.S. will be massive," the UBS analysts said. "We forecast a 55-per-cent sequential increase in production in the second half."
In Torino this week, Mr. Marchionne reiterated his vow not to pump Fiat's cash into Chrysler even though Fiat held up relatively well in the downturn, is gaining market share in Europe and is expected to pump out about €1-billion ($1.56-billion) in operating profits this year. "It doesn't need it," he said. Chrysler is "managing their resources well."
Chrysler is thought to have about $7-billion (U.S.) in cash, made up of U.S. and Canadian government bailout money and lines of credit.
Chrysler's product lineup, while thin, is not entirely empty. The all-new Jeep Grand Cherokee SUV, which was in development well before the Fiat takeover, is due to be launched in the spring. The new Chrysler 300 sedan will follow at the end of the year. Several existing Chrysler products will receive "mid-cycle" upgrades.
The hot-selling Fiat 500 subcompact, meanwhile, is to begin production somewhere in the NAFTA trade bloc late next year. The car, which will be branded as a Fiat, is widely expected to come out of Chrysler's assembly plant in Toluca, Mexico, though Mr. Marchionne would not confirm this.
The Nov. 4 event at Chrysler's headquarters will provide full details of Chrysler's five-year production, marketing and financial plan, including the extent of the collaboration with Fiat. While Fiat and Chrysler will remain separate companies, they are expected to reveal a full technological and design merger scenario.
Chrysler's IPO is inevitable because the United Auto Workers union, through its Voluntary Employee Beneficiary Association (VEBA), which owns 55 per cent of Chrysler, has no intention of being a long-term shareholder. VEBA took the non-voting stake in exchange for inheriting health care liabilities from the bankruptcy-bound car company. "It needs to float" on the stock market, Mr. Marchionne said. "VEBA needs to monetize that interest. That was the deal. We owe it to them."
Only the VEBA shares would be floated. Fiat's ownership, which will rise to 35 per cent or more under certain performance conditions, would not be affected by the IPO.Report Typo/Error

Definitely don't like this guy, but I'd be interested in what makes him a "thug?" Code word much?
Funny thing is...our downfield and to be honest even our medium passing game with top WR prospects can't seem to beat the coverage of teams with far less talented and well coached secondaries; however, other team's less talented WRs are having less and less trouble getting open against our stellar secondary. Seems to be contributing to our offensive woes and since it's not a talent issue or an effort issue, it's more likely a scheme issue i.e. coaching.
Mike stayed to start the chase for a championship...Cardale? Mission accomplished.
Even behind last year's line, which by any measure was excellent, Brax didn't get through his progressions as quickly as J.T. does which minimizes the time in the pocket he gives himself before he moves on and uses his athleticism (sp) and takes off. We watched how J.T. would scan the field and we watched Cardale stand tall in the pocket, two traits that Brax just hasn't shown a propensity to do on a regular basis, hence his under utilization of the same wide receivers corps that Kenny G. got more production out of when he was passing them the ball.
Reading defenses was not one of Braxton's strengths. Period.
Is it too soon to be asking this question? Yes.
The real question is "Would you have more touchdowns than Joey Bosa in the next game?"
How bout when he has a bad season? He get to check out them?
That would be consummate buckeye of a CO-defensive coordinator.
Whatever lets you sleep at night Melvin.
You mean the same false premises that supposed and are now confirmed by the prosecuting atty that at least one witness LIED in their testimony in support of the innocence of the man who shot and killed another human being UTD? I appreciate Nick's gesture just as I appreciate Kobe's, Lebron's and all the players that spoke out on the platform they have.
Woke up today with the power to upvote....finally! you my friend are the very first recipient of an upvote from the Daddy. History baby...history.
Bama will not run on us. The inside is closed.
Time to call a code red on that fool. Let's see....extra large pillow case full of soap bars? Check.
I got a fever and the only prescription... is more Vonn Bell...baby!
I would run through a mountain for this coach. No joke.
I was only able to watch exactly 20 seconds of that crap. Yes, go blue...go the hell away.
Depends on who is in their ear. Sadly, playing time is NOT gonna be at a premium for some of our guys at that position next year unless of course and God forbid we have to deal with another spate of injuries/issues. Here's hoping all parties make good, informed decisions that are best for them and their futures. That said, if I'm Herman...I'm gonna at least do SOME recruiting in the Buckeye treasure chest!
He does not look happy.
I'm very open about my fat-phobia. Yet somehow, like all super villians eventually do...I have become that which I hate most.
Three years of unacceptable vs one great game. Are we really satisfied with that? And is it enough to grant Fickle immunity for future performances that don't meet silver bullet standards? Of that stink up the joint and require the offense to bail out the d? (See all of last year) The last few years body of work suggests that the staff and players pulled it all together for the grand moment of redemption in the B1G Championship. It was fortunate that our opponent was utterly one dimensional because we were not forced to make any adjustments. But, those days are now over. Bama is gonna make us adjust and sorry folks but this staff has rarely if ever demonstrated a marked ability to out scheme a quality opponent via adjustments on the fly, particularly on defense. Just my thoughts.
The same way Tress never won it...he's just too damn good and to acknowledge it would make the other coaches in the confernce feel insecure about themselves. As they should.

Anthony said Wednesday he believes the USA Basketball selection committee has moved on without him.
"They've got their mind set on what they want," Anthony told the Rocky Mountain News. "Don't nothing include Carmelo. Nothing in the NBA includes me. You realize that?"
Anthony led all rookies in scoring this past season but finished second to Cleveland Cavaliers guard LeBron James in Rookie of the Year voting.
James will play for Team USA in the Aug. 13-29 Athens Games. Miami Heat guard Dwyane Wade, another rookie, also is expected to make the team. The roster already includes two small forwards, Shawn Marion and Richard Jefferson.
"I could wait four years for the next one," Anthony said of the Olympics. "Hopefully, I'll be globally known in four years."


text: India has been receiving a lot of flak for the dismal percentage of participation of females in the labour force. The Gender InequalityIndex (Human Development Report 2015) ranks India at 130 among a total of 155 countries, which is at a considerably lower end ofthe table. This index takes into consideration three vital parameters- reproductive health, economic activity, empowerment- and Indiahas fared poorly in all three sections. India's rank is telling of how much disparity there is between the two genders in the countrywhen it comes to their employment.This gender disparity in India continues to prevail at a time when the views of so many other countries have moved far beyond it. Theglobally appreciated retort of Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau- "Because it is 2015", in reply to a reporter's question askingwhy it was important to him to have a gender balanced cabinet, is an excellent example of how succinctly powerful the idea of genderparity is starting to become in the world.India's GDP crossed the $2 trillion mark in 2014 and it is the fastest growing major economy at 7.4 percent (Raghavan 2015) and yetthese benefits have not reached the female labour force. They still continue their struggle to be part of the work force. This is evidentfrom the female workforce participation rate which has plummeted from 35 percent in 1990 to 27 percent in 2012 (GlobalEmployment Trends 2012). Women still spend a large amount of their time in undertaking unpaid work which involves householdduties and care giving.

Walner Leandre started the day at his junior college in south Texas, but he finished it stepping in at free safety as Arkansas finished its third practice of fall drills in almost total darkness.
"Guys, we got Walner in here today," Arkansas head coach Houston Nutt said. "We are glad to get him here and we'll begin trying to get him caught up."
Leandre, 6-2, 215 junior safety, had been waiting in Houston to get his last junior college course stamped and sent to Arkansas to secure his eligibility.
"He'd taken it awhile back, so it was just a matter of getting all the paper work here," said Chris Vaughn, safeties coach and recruiting coordinator. "I've been talking with him through this entire process and he's really stayed on top of it. He'd call me each day to tell me what he was doing and where the process was at. That's what you appreciate about Walner Leandre."
Defensive coordinator Reggie Herring is high on Leandre. He said last week if the junior college free safety was as good as advertised that returnee Michael Grant could be moved to cornerback and play a cover position as the nickel back or dime packages.
"I know it's a win-win situation," Vaughn said. "Of course, I'd like to keep them both at free to give us lots of competition there, but I understand that we might need to move Michael. Right now, we just have to get them ready and it's a good competition situation."
Vaughn said he enjoyed telling the other safeties in position meetings this afternoon that Leandre was on the way.
"You could see their ears perk up because they know his reputation," Vaughn said. "They know that's another talented player in the mix."
Vaughn said he would begin Tuesday morning with a chalk board session with his new player.
"We'll get him on the board and begin to show him the scheme," Vaughn said. "I don't think it will be too hard. Right now, we'll just teach him how to play deep center field."
Actually, that's what the safety did on a few plays Monday.
"I got off the plane at 5:45 p.m. and came right here," he said. "I just got my physical as soon as I got here and then got my stuff and came out. I was a little late today, but it was just so much a relief to be out here. They put me out there for three or four plays. I just played the middle. I think what they are doing is something I've done before so I should pick it up."
Vaughn said the tank-link Leandre is another big body to patrol the middle.
"That's what we want, some big bodies on a hash," he said. "It makes you think when you come over the middle. We've got Matt Hewitt and he's a big body, too. We'd like to get back to that."
Grant, coming off knee surgery, checked in at 182 pounds this fall. That's another reason he might be better suited to cornerback, a spot where the Hogs are thin.
"If that happens, fine," Vaughn said. "We know Mike can play there and it might be what we need."
There may be more good news as early as Tuesday.
"We are hoping to get Brandon Barnett real soon, maybe by tomorrow afternoon," Nutt said. "We are just waiting on paper work."
Cornerback Greg Gatson may take longer. Nutt said it may not be until the start of school when the Hogs hear word on his appeal with the NCAA. However, it should be good news on Gatson, too.
Nutt said execution was not crisp Monday night, but that was to be expected.
"We've gone over some stuff and it's been also three days of installs," Nutt said. "We had some mistakes and you expect that this early. We are hitting a lot of things and it's new for our younger players. We are throwing them into it and seeing what they can do.
"We'll get better and we will improve. We've got a few more days of install. But, I see a lot of carry over from spring from our older players. I see a lot of carry over."
A handful of offensive players ran laps for missed offensive assignments.
The Hogs struggled on field goals at the end of the practice. The field goal period came in almost total darkness. The placekickers made only "one of five," kicks according to Nutt.
"I think the only made kick was from (Alex) Tejada," Nutt said. "It was pretty dark. Maybe they aren't used to kicking in the dark."
Nutt liked the leadership from the seniors. He said he can see the older players pulling the youngsters along.
"I love our attitude and the way we are working and leading," Nutt said.
The Hogs will don shoulder pads on Tuesday for another evening workout. They will have two more days with just shoulder pads before adding leg pads for Thursday's workout. The of the two-a-day workouts comes on Friday.
Nutt said he was concerned about his original plan to practice at 6:30 p.m. He may have to move it slightly earlier in the afternoon since the Hogs had to cut short their workout on Monday because of darkness.

The first place to look to find out how things are supposed to work is the servlet spec; SRV.12.2 says: "The security model applies to the static content part of the web application and to servlets and filters within the application that are requested by the client. The security model does not apply when a servlet uses the RequestDispatcher to invoke a static resource or servlet using a forward or an include." (Admittedly, the above doesn't mention filters, but the intent appears to be that any use of RequestDispatcher is done after security constraints have been satisfied so that such use can retrieve otherwise inaccessible resources.) > Alternatively, is there some way for me to do the > requestdispatcher.forward call from the filter, and tell it to > honor security constraints on the folder structure like it > worked prior to adding the rewrite function? Don't think so, since security constraints are applied very early in the request processing cycle, before any servlet/filter processing occurs. You could configure the UrlRewriteFilter to do a redirect instead of a forward - but that would expose the rewritten URLs to the client. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.

NFL Lockout Watch, Day 3: If Injunction Blocks Lockout, It Will Be Business As Usual
Published March 14, 2011
CALLING AN AUDIBLE: In N.Y., Adam Himmelsbach notes with no CBA, the league has "lost its authority to enforce its drug and personal-conduct policies," and when the NFLPA decertified, it "ceded its ability to regulate agents." So begins a "kind of test of morals, as players and agents who once played by the carefully scripted rules of the image-conscious NFL and its union now exist in a world where anything goes." NFL radio analyst Gil Brandt, a former Cowboys exec, said, "There are a lot of loopholes now." Himmelsbach notes the league "could not punish players retroactively for off-the-field issues during this stoppage," but an offseason incident by a player still "could affect a team's desire to have him on its roster." CBS NFL analyst Charley Casserly said, "Any player that is doing something that would cause a violation of the collective bargaining agreement or league policy is going to have to remember there eventually is going to be a season. There are going to be games, so I can't see players just flaunting it because we're three days into a decertification." Meanwhile, Himmelsbach notes without a "system of regulation, there are concerns that agents will poach clients from other agents." Brandt said that he "would not be surprised to see a bit of a feeding frenzy among agents" (N.Y. TIMES, 3/14). After the players decertified on Friday, the group "informed certified player agents that it is now a professional association and agents are no longer regulated by what was the players' union" (FOXSPORTS.com, 3/12). ESPN's Adam Schefter said, "All the NFL can do right now is hope that players act as well as possible. ... Also, agents can do what they want right now" ("SportsCenter," ESPN, 3/14).
LOGGING PHONE CALLS WITH AGENTS: FOXSPORTS.com's Alex Marvez cited sources as saying that the NFL is "requiring general managers to keep a log of every conversation held with an agent." GMs and agents are "allowed to discuss college prospects in this year's draft," and they can also talk about "personal business if a player agent also represents a general manager or head coach." However, the NFL has "warned coaches and team officials that discussions of current players or pending free agents during a lockout is prohibited." The mandate "probably won't discourage all prohibited conduct," but it "may make some GMs think twice before being willing to risk NFL punishment" (FOXSPORTS.com, 3/13).

Ikoma Ayamari was a member of the Lion Clan in the 1st century who was considered a traitor to her clan.
Ikoma Scrolls Edit
Ayamari was a young idealist who was convinced by the Scorpion Clan to steal the scrolls detailing the Emperor's early mistakes, which had been covered up by the Shosuro but documented in detail by the Ikoma. [1]
Death Edit
The scrolls containing the errors of the Hantei line lied tucked beneath a sitting stone within a natural cavern behind the Amaterasu's Tears waterfall at Otosan Uchi. Ayamari was found dead at the base of the cascade, and it was determined she had flung herself to her death in sorrow. The waterfall name was changed to Sorrow's Falls for her. [1]

Beaumont/Port Arthur
As Beaumonters were prepping for Super Bowl 50 between the Denver Broncos and Carolina Panthers, around 25 Lamar University social work students teamed up with the Southeast Texas Food Bank and H-E-B to tackle hunger.
Thursday, Feb. 4, representatives from Lamar University's Social Work Student Association participated in the Souper Bowl of Caring food drive at the H-E-B store on College Street in Beaumont benefiting Southeast Texas families.
Crime Stoppers is asking for the public's assistance in getting dangerous drug dealers and drug users, along with the poisonous products they carry, off the streets. To that end, The Examiner will periodically feature a list of five persons accused of drug-related crimes here in High Five.
"Crime Stoppers and The Examiner are teaming up to fight the drug problem in Southeast Texas," Beaumont Police Officer Carol Riley of Crime Stoppers said.
ExxonMobil Beaumont Refinery experienced an unplanned shutdown of one of its sulfur units Wednesday morning around 11 a.m., Feb. 10, and as a precautionary measure enacted a shelter-in-place order within the complex.
A similar move was made at nearby Jefferson County Courthouse, according to Greg Fountain, Emergency Management coordinator for Jefferson County.

While we harbor no disrespect for the Wall Street Journal who called us "that scrappy little paper from Southeast Texas," we prefer to think of ourselves as simple seekers of the truth. We're of the opinion that headlines and sound bites never tell the whole story. Our readers demand all the facts, facets and flavors of every story or event. And, they expect to be informed, educated and stirred to action.

Classic indexing problem. Here are a couple simple ideas. 1. If the dash in these items means that the two sets of numbers are, in fact, different attributes, AND you only want to prefix entire attributes, then separate them into their own fields in Lucene. That is, instead of a FOOBAR field with entries like 108585-123, have a FOO field with entries like 108585 and 332323, and a BAR field with entries like 123. To look for all items in the 123 family, simply search only on the BAR field. 2. If you want arbitrary postfixing for ITEM (in addition to the arbitrary prefixing Lucene already provides), encode ITEM in the index in forward and reverse directions. In other words, ITEM has entries like 108585-123 and 332323-123, and REVITEM has entries like 321-585801 and 321-332323. To look for all items in the 123 family, search for "321*" on REVITEM. To look for all items in a family ending in 3, the equivalent of "*3" in ITEM, search for "3*" in REVITEM.

Local school budgets boosted by improvement in state's economy
Minnesota's economy is looking up, and so are local school budgets.
Recent tax collections have left Minnesota lawmakers with high hopes for the state's economy.
With an extra $300 million, Minnesota's strengthening economy appears to be pulling in money even before a $2.1 billion-tax increase goes into effect.
Many believe the state is on its best financial footing in years. With all this extra money, the state intends to replenish its reserves and repay the public schools.
The past few years have been hard on many institutions. The general payment shift originally consisted of the state paying 90 percent of the money it owed school districts, and paying then the other 10 percent later on the following year.
However, recent years led to schools only receiving 60 percent of the money owed right away and 40 percent later on.
Many schools were left short and forced to borrow using aid anticipation certificates or bonds.
Even though the state did eventually pay the 40 percent each year, it was too late for many institutions to make their monthly payments.
Fortunately Detroit Lakes' public schools were not among them.
"It's very emblematic of the financial health of the district that we never had to borrow through that rough time a few years ago," said Superintendent Doug Froke.
The schools are now lawmaker's No. 1 priority. By law, the state must pay back the 90/10 payment shift; if it is unable to do so, the second the economy improves they must raise it back up to 90/10 or as close to that as they possibly can.
However, in districts where the past few years were still successful, many would prefer payments in a different method.
"One of the positions that was out there taken by superintendents is, if you (the state) have got $300 million, give it to us on the per student formula," Froke said. "This gets more money (to districts)."
This 'new' money, as Froke called it, can be used for something other than paying the bills.
Although the issue of delayed payments has put school districts in the middle of legislative budget fights, Froke takes it all in stride.
"A person has to understand that K-12 education has become very political and we are at the mercy of the lawmakers in St. Paul … and that is what it is."
Ultimately, this newfound money will benefit the students of DL public schools. "Everything we do, we do it in the best interests of the kids," said Froke.

Pushkar ghat is a Bathing Ghat on the banks of the river Godavari near the city of Rajahmundry. It is surrounded by several ancient temples like Sri Kotilingeswara Temple and Sri Markendaya Swami temple etc. It is one of several important Bathing Ghats in Rajahmundry. Devotees throng to the Ghat throughout the year. The spot is believed to wash away the sins of those who take a dip in its waters. The fact that several important temples are near to the Ghat only augments its importance in the mind of the devotee.

Sleeping with the Enemy
The popularity of fuel price discounts is spurring some c-store operators to partner with supermarkets on gasoline promotion programs
Past success is pushing the supermarket industry to up the ante in gasoline promotions, as more grocery retailers aggressively market their motor fuels to lure customers inside their stores.
But the news isn't all bad for c-store/gas station operators, as some are partnering with supermarkets to their mutual benefit.
"Supermarkets with fuel are a growing competitive threat, since they are typically putting in full-line c-stores on their parking lot gas sites," said Jon Hauptman, a partner with Willard Bishop Consulting, based in Barrington, Ill. "For other c-store operators, though, the trend is an opportunity to partner with supermarkets who want to leverage the power of gasoline in their promotional strategies."
This is exactly what Greenville, S.C.-based Spinx Oil is doing. The petroleum marketer linked up with regional supermarket chain Bi-Lo on a program that awarded Bi-Lo's customers with a $25 reloadable Spinx gas card, which could be used at any of Spinx's 62 convenience stores. Not only did the program drive Bi-Lo shoppers to Spinx gas stations, it also helped add new participants to the c-store chain's state-of-the-art loyalty program, and provided insights that assisted Spinx's chief marketing officer Bill Reilly in his development of the retailer's new loyalty strategy.
It started with a successful low-tech, limited-time gas promotion last spring. Customers who spent at least $35 in any of Bi-Lo's 200-plus stores got a Tank Token coupon, 10 of which could be redeemed at Bi-Lo for a $25 Spinx reloadable gas card. (Spinx has a 65-percent share of the market; there are nearly two Spinx stores for every Bi-Lo in Greenville and the surrounding markets.)
During the program, which ran from April 11 through June 26, Bi-Lo awarded approximately 350,000 specially designed Spinx cards. "Our goal was to encourage the use of gift cards and keep these customers, especially the female customers who shop at Bi-Lo but are not coming to our stores," Reilly said. "We also hoped the cards would be reloaded and move some customers away from credit cards and reduce those fees. Bi-Lo knew gasoline pricing was an emotional issue that changes shopping behavior."
Still, because Spinx's payment platform would not allow the Spinx cards to be redeemed at the pump, Reilly was concerned that customers would be aggravated by the inconvenience of walking into the store to pay for gas using the Free Gas cards.
"The customer was already inconvenienced because Bi-Lo wasn't able to do this program electronically; they had to collect the coupons manually," Reilly said. "I wasn't sure about making the customers walk the extra 10 feet into the store to redeem them."
Some of the problems Reilly anticipated were realized: A portion of customers was annoyed. "But, every time an associate in the store saw one of the specially designed cards, he knew it came from a Bi-Lo customer," Reilly noted. "It was like a label on the customer's forehead, alerting the associate to really TLC the customer," Reilly said. "Executing that with 900 employees was no easy feat, but at least it gave us an opportunity to identify them as a VIP customer, take care of them and try to keep them as a customer for life."
Spinx sold Bi-Lo the gas cards at a discount and invested in promotional materials, such as banners and pump toppers. Bi-Lo also ran billboard advertising and had point-of-purchase materials in its stores. Spinx is now rolling out a new point-of-sale system from Radiant Systems Inc. and a loyalty program that will allow rolling prices back at the pump. The manual program "was a natural bridge to that," Reilly said.
Although the cards were sold at a discount, Reilly anticipated a boost in merchandise sales, which would help increase margins. He also knew the value of some cards would not be fully redeemed.
"We were having a good summer, and it's difficult to pinpoint how many gallons or inside sales were directly attributed to the Bi-Lo promotion," Reilly said. "But, both we and Bi-Lo felt good about the promotion and are talking about working together long term with our new loyalty program. My job is to figure out what the customer wants and how to deliver it -- and right now, they want cheaper gasoline."
Similarly, Irving Oil Corp. recently partnered with Shaw's Supermarkets, a division of Minneapolis-based Supervalu Inc., on a fuel discount program. From Sept. 7 to Oct. 4, customers who used their Shaw's Rewards Card earned discounts from 10 to 60 cents off per gallon for every qualified $50 to $300 purchase. Discounts were presented as coupons, which could be redeemed at any Irving, Bluecanoe or Mainway station, for up to 20 gallons of gasoline per visit.
The coupons, honored through Oct. 18, could be accumulated. "One person got a free tank of gasoline, basically," noted Rob Wilson, a spokesman for St. John, New Brunswick-based Irving Oil.
The program included 57 of Shaw's 200-plus locations and more than 140 Irving sites in Maine and New Hampshire. "It drove traffic to our stores and people tended to fill up with more gallons at once, which built our business and hopefully, created loyalty with us and let Shaw's customers who have not visited us before find out what Irving is all about," Wilson said.
The fall promotion was an expanded program that followed a successful eight-week pilot at three Shaw's and six Irving Oil locations in Littleton, Gorham and North Conway, N.H., during the summer. During the pilot, 7,500 Shaw's Rewards customers saved an average of 24 cents per gallon at Irving Oil sites.
"We're committed to finding ways to bring additional value to our customers," said Harry Hadiaris, Irving Oil's director of convenience retail. "Teaming up with Shaw's allows us to reward our customers for something they are already doing -- buying food for their busy families."
In another ongoing partnership, Supervalu's Shop 'n Save chain, a group of more than 70 independently owned and operated supermarkets in western Pennsylvania, eastern Ohio and West Virginia, is touting its Pump Perks program with Sunoco. Customers using a Pump Perks loyalty card can earn 10 cents off a gallon of gasoline, up to 30 gallons, with a purchase of $50 or more. The discounts are automatically tracked on the loyalty card and can be redeemed at more than 100 participating Sunoco units and four of the chains' own Shop 'n Save Express stations. They must be redeemed within 60 days of issuance.
In the Northeast, Schenectady, N.Y.-based Price Chopper last year debuted FuelAdvantEdge, an added value to its AdvantEdge loyalty card. The operator of 100 Price Chopper stores in New York, Vermont, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, Massachusetts and New Hampshire partnered with local Sunoco stations that offered a 10- cent-per-gallon discount for every $50 of groceries purchased. A 20-cent-per-gallon discount was awarded for every $100 of groceries purchased, a 30-cent-per-gallon discount for every $150 of groceries purchased, and so on.
Unlike some other reward programs, consumers may amass their points/dollars spent over 90 days and cash in on their gasoline discount for as many as 20 gallons at one time.
The increasing importance of gasoline loyalty programs in the supermarket channel became clear recently when Kroger Co. boosted the value of its gasoline discounts in some markets to compete more effectively with Giant Eagle's fuelperks! program.
During one early October weekend, The Associated Press reported Kroger stores in the Columbus, Ohio, area offered $5 worth of free gasoline when customers using Kroger's loyalty card spent $60 in its stores. In addition, customers who spent $100 in their grocery stores earned $10 in free gas, and a $160 purchase was worth $15 in free gas.
Kroger also offers a discount program that earns customers up to 50 cents off per gallon based on store purchases. The revved-up promotion was only offered in central Ohio, the same region where the two grocery chains have been waging a price war. In May, Giant Eagle doubled its fuelperks! gas discount program, and currently offers 20 cents off per gallon at its GetGo gas stations for every $50 spent in its stores. The chain's popular fuelperks! customer loyalty program typically rewards grocery shopping with 10-cent gasoline discounts for every $50 worth of purchases made inside its supermarkets and GetGo c-stores.
Earlier in the fall, Giant Eagle, operator of 225 supermarkets and more than 125 fuel and convenience stores, cut back its double-coupon redemption policy, saying consumers put a higher value on fuelperks! and other loyalty programs. (Pittsburgh-based Giant Eagle has since reversed course amid consumer outcry, saying it would not end the practice of doubling coupons in its Akron, Cleveland, and Canton, Ohio-area stores.)
In a September conference call reviewing the company's quarterly results, David Dillon, Kroger's chairman and CEO, said the chain's fuel business "had a strong second quarter this year -- in sales, gallons and margin."
While the food chain does not break out average gasoline sales or margins, Dillon noted: "In the fuel business, it is not uncommon to see variations from quarter to quarter. To account for these fluctuations, we encourage investors to consider a longer view when analyzing fuel margins."
A small clue to the role gasoline is playing in the supermarket chain's strategy is seen in Kroger's overall sales figures. Total sales for the second quarter increased 6.6 percent to $16.1 billion, with identical supermarket sales of fuel increasing 5.8 percent and those without fuel increasing 5.1 percent.
Kroger also is expanding the sale of E85, now available in 40 sites in Ohio, Texas and Kentucky. In an alternative fuel marketing effort, Kroger and General Motors last month promoted the use of E85 at a store in Cincinnati by offering it for less than $1 a gallon. For only two hours, starting at 7:30 a.m., Kroger sold E85 for just 85 cents per gallon, which was nearly 70 percent below the then-current price of more than $2.54 per gallon.
During the event, three GM E85-capable Chevrolet vehicles were on display, while Kroger and GM executives were on hand to answer consumer questions. The first 100 customers were given a $25 Kroger refueling card.
In a related move, Kroger's Ohio E85 fueling sites are benefiting from an agreement between Enterprise Rent A Car and E85 supplier, VeraSun. Enterprise has committed to concentrate flex-fuel vehicles around selected E85 fueling locations and will provide educational materials and maps to Kroger's fueling sites inside each automobile.

Dear Editor:
According to the Governor's Office of Strategic Planning and Budgeting (http://www.ospb.state.az.us/), Gov. Jan Brewer's budget proposal for fiscal 2012 would reduce the state budget by $1 billion through spending cuts to erase the deficit.
Although I do not agree politically with the proposed cuts that include both education and Arizona Health Care Cost Containment System (AHCCCS), I did understand that there is merit in the governor's desire to make Arizona fiscally sound. That is, until I also read that the same office states that Arizona will lose $1.1 billion in federal match money by cutting AHCCCS. Isn't gaining $1 billion to lose $1.1 billion a net loss of $.10 billion ($100 million dollars)? Wouldn't Arizona be better off financially by not cutting anything and getting the federal AHCCCS match?
What Brewer's budget proposal will actually do is lessen the quality of your child's education and take away health care from more of our state's poor and mentally ill while not saving a dime. Makes one wonder what the political motive is. Could the governor and the Republican-dominated Legislature be more concerned with the political ideology of privatizing education and cutting entitlements than with what is best for all Arizonans?

American Express Stock Looks Quite Cheap Here
- American Express had a horrible 2015 which has adversely affected the share price. The Costco Loss, impending court cases and the strong dollar have all stifled growth.
- The company is undervalued compared to its peers in this sector. Every $100 invested will get you over $7 in earnings which is high for such an established company.
- Strong hands are starting to see value here. Value Act (known for deep value investing) invested over $1 billion in August of this year.
American Express (NYSE:AXP) has had a rough year to date with the stock currently trading at just over $77 a share which is almost a 18.4% drop from where it started the year. This is mainly due to the Costco fallout which has cost the credit card company millions in revenue but it has had plenty of time to prepare for this loss. The stock is oversold here when compared to the Financial Sector ETF (NYSEARCA:XLF) which is only down 8.4% year to date and the S&P500 (NYSEARCA:SPAL) which is down less than 5% (see chart). Nevertheless the credit card company is up almost 3% over the last week as a result of the Sam's Club --owned by Wal-Mart (NYSE:WMT)-- deal which will add 650 more locations in the US and Puerto Rico from the 1st of October.
Source: Americal Express stock price data by amigobulls.com
There will always be room for a credit card company that is tailored towards high net worth individuals because of the closed loop network it creates. Merchants are willing to pay the added fees to American Express because they know these affluent credit card users will spend more through their cards. Furthermore American Express is then able to fund its very generous loyalty programs from the fat fees it receives from the respective merchants.
The decline in the share price has resulted in a low current PE ratio of 13.63. I think its time to go long again. Let's take a closer look at the fundamentals. This stock traded at $95 a share in 2014 but in my opinion, its long term fundamentals have not changed much, which is why I am bullish. This stock has always been viewed by investors as a finance anchor in a diversified portfolio whether the portfolio was set up for income growth or capital gains. Here is a breakdown of its financials over a 10 year period
- Years of Dividend Increases - 4
- Profit Margins - 19% - Increasing
- Healthy Balance Sheet - $157 billion - Increasing
- 10 Year Price History - Up 30% excluding Dividend
- Competitive Advantage - Worldwide Brand, Customers For Life, Strong Merchant Network
- Revenues - $31.8 billion - Increasing
- Free Cash Flow - $1.9 billion - Stable
- Resistant To Recessions - Revenue recovered quickly in 2010 to reach $32.9 billion which was higher than pre-2008 levels
American Express bears may point to its revenues metric declining as of late but the Sam's club deal mentioned above should definitely help turnover from October onwards. American Express's competitor Visa (NYSE:V) is up over 8% already this year but I still prefer American Express due to Visa's dividend being much smaller and it is also currently selling at a premium with a PE ratio of 28. However, I believe the whole credit card sector will grow going forward because of the high barrier to entry that exists in this sector. Furthermore only 15% of the global market has payment processors in place which means there is still ample runway for credit card companies especially in emerging economies.
There also are other factors that are contributing to American Express's lack lustre performance of late. In February of this year the credit card company announced that its partnership with JetBlue would be ending which definitely enhanced the Costco losses. Nevertheless the real pain for shareholders came in July when the credit card company got hit with a lawsuit filed by some investors who claimed they were being mislead about the financials of the Costco deal. The respective investors claimed that compensation should have been paid out to investors who bought the stock between October 2014 and February 2015. The reason being American Express seemingly failed to notify shareholders in October of 2014 that the Costco contract was being discussed and under renewal. The announcement of the lawsuit saw the American Express stock price tank by another $3 per share in last July which alienated even more investors. Furthermore, the credit card company is appealing a decision in a February court case, where the respective Judge sided with merchants by stating they were free to recommend cheaper cards to customers. All of this issues are putting a dark could over this stock which is why the share price is underperforming.
However in this industry, there are always problems with regulators, shareholders, customers, etc. Wells Fargo & Co (NYSE:WFC) for example had its share of problems and continues to have them but since its a market leader, I have no doubt it will continue to dominate. I see the same for American Express especially when you take note of recent developments.
Firstly, you had Value Act Capital in early August investing $1 billion into American Express. Value Act is known in the industry for investing big in highly oversold companies. When the news hit, shares rose to over $81 a share but since then they have come back down meaning value investors can now buy American Express stock for the same price Value Act got it at. What investors need to consider here is that Value Act's investment netted it just over 11 million shares. American Express has already announced a share buyback plan of 150 million shares in May of this year which still hasn't gone ahead. Given the huge history of buybacks American Express has, I see the buyback going ahead which will drive the share price higher on increased EPS, going forward. When companies with sound fundamentals and assets get oversold, the companies in question slowly move into stronger hands. We see this presently in the mining sector with Carl Icahn investing in multiple depressed mining companies such as Chesapeake Energy (NYSE:CHK) and Freeport-McMoRan (NYSE:FCX). Investors should remember that Warren Buffet owns 151.6 million shares of American Express and with the stock on sale, I wouldn't be surprised seeing him up his stake even though his stake in the company will increase as a result of the impending buyback program.
To sum up, I would recommend being a buyer here. 2015 has been a year to forget for the company but investors have the opportunity to take advantage. Strong hands are investing to drive the company forward and with brand building initiatives such as Small Business Saturday and the Plenti Loyalty program, it would be unwise to bet against American Express stock here.
