Magazines are a terrific (and cheap) way to expand your horizons.
I have to disagree. Why not buy a BOOK on a subject with which you are unfamiliar? It has been my experience that magazines are only about 1/2 to 1/3 the price of a book, and the content is ridiculous compared to one.
That, and the endless advertisements makes me find magazines nearly useless. Have you seen the price of magazines lately? I was browsing some of the less popular magazines (in this case Skeptic), it was like $8 or something like that. PC Magazine is like $5+..
I am very well acquainted with this debate, and nothing new was presented in those links.
Unfortunately, you, and none of the other fucking idiots who have responded to my posts can satisfactorily discuss the significance of optionees purchasing stocks for LESS than the market value. In my opinion, it shows how thouroughly corrupt and decadent our financial has bins have become, that they cannot appreciate the significance of artificially created money.
And once again, I ask, have you ever read the FAS123 guidelines? How about even the APB25 guidelines?
The fact remains that no one who is professionally involved with financial reporting is suggesting stock options should NOT be an expense. Who are we supposed to believe? Some fool on slashdot who can make nothing but unsupported assertions? Or the fine people at FASB and the Securities and Exchange commission.
I have a Celeron 600mhz Sony Vaio laptop I got for $900 nearly 3 years ago. At the time, it was the cheapest laptop I could find from a name brand manufacturer at the time.
I was watching DivX movies on it the moment I got it. These days, I watch Xvid encoded movies no problem as well.
While I obviously have no idea if the laptop you were using was defective, I can tell you without a doubt that if a Celeron 600 can play DivX movies, then a Celeron 2000 can as well.
Do you realize that on average, less than 50% of stock options are ever exercised? Do you know why? Because it onder to qualify for incentive stock opion benefits you have to issue the options at FMV on the date of grant.
Further, you have to HOLD the options for at least 1 year to gain the profit tax free, so a same day sale is discouraged.
DO you really think that it makes sense, considering the above facts, to count stock options as stocks at the moment of grant and thus dilute everyone elses holdings, even when MOST of those options will never actually become stock?
We aren't talking about stocks you fucking moron. We are talking about stock options. I am amazed at the idiocy here.
What you, and another poster seem to believe, is stock options when issued, are immediately treated like stock and are counted as outstanding shares. THIS IS NOT TRUE.
The point that I am getting to is the company buys stocks to cover the profit realized by the optionee. THe money doesn't magically appear, it came out of the company's profits.
Do you really think the people at FASB are as stupid as you are? Think!
What you are essentially claiming, is stock options are frauds. The $50 per share is just bullshit, and Johnny Corporation is saying fuck those suckers, we are giving it to you for $2. After all, caveat emptor.
You aren't thinking about this. That $48 necessarily comes out of the company's profits which are used to buy stocks at the time of vesting to cover the options that can now be exercised.
This is why stock options do not necessarily dilute the holdings of existing shareholders! This is also why according to FAS123 guidelines, the expenses is incurred at the time of vesting, not the time of granting.
Sometimes I can't believe I read this stuff. Have you ever read a 10K filing in your life?
Stock option plans are issued ALL THE TIME, often by companies that have existed long before the creation of the financial instrument we call stock options.
I don't know who either of those authors are you cite, but I will be happy to provide you with some information about how and why cells do not replicate ad infinitum.
This is stuff out out of a sophmore year biology class. The limiting factor is a part of the DNA strand known as a telomere.
it is generally theorized that the purpose of limiting cellular replication is it limits cancer, ie a single mutated cell shouldn't replicate forever.
Here are several medical journal articles you can look up on The National Library of Medicine regarding limiting caloric intake, and several microcellular observations regarding the DNA replication process.

There is in fact a major disadvantage that you may not be aware of.
There is a finite number of times each cell in your body can replicate itself. Excessive muscle growth WILL limit the maximum lifespan of a life form, and it limits the lifespan of humans as well.
This is part of how limiting caloric intake increases lifespan, it literally reduces the overall cellular growth of a lifeform.
Truth be told: the middle classes (who actually vote) and the elderly get almost all the tax breaks. There aren't enough of the rich to matter, and the poor don't vote.
Oh yeah, sure, its the middle class and elderly who vote to flood your country with third world immigration, driving up the costs of social programs, and forcing the elderly to flee your country due to the incredible cost of living.
The middle classes, who think that adjustable rate mortgages, 7x income multiples, and $500k for a two bedroom apartment are sensible. Fuck 'em.
We call this inflation, a monetary system originally started by your country and imposed on the world. In places where apartments cost $500K, most people rent for a long time before they can afford to buy. Interestingly, in the countries most controlled by International Finance, The United States and Great Britain, housing costs are not factored into the national inflation rate calculation. Who cares if your bag of rice costs pennies if you spend 55% of your income on your house.
Trust me, if I could go back in time and assassinate Disraeli I would.
It least I can take pride in knowing the powers of global capital will collapse soon, and your country which has now become a cess pool, will be enveloped in anarchy.
What's even more ridiculous, is that kind of bullshit can ONLY happen in the US. This is because the US is the only country that has no over the counter opiate drugs, like codeine preparations.
Corporatism was coined by Mussolini, it is based on the latin word "corpus", or body. It simply refers to the reorganization of society around a metaphor where the people make up the body of the culture. Each plays an important, but inherently different role. The legal concept of the corporation is a English invention, and was not what any fascist leader was talking about.
Fascism was primarily an aesthetic political ideology. What I am talking about doesn't make sense when you believe politics is utilitarian and egalitarian, ie supply and demand of material goods. Fascism didn't believe the sole purpose of a society is to supply the people's demands.
What it was focused on was artistic specialization, creating an opportunity where artists and craftsmen could create beauty again. The issue we find with materialistic and egalitarian political orders is the majority of people demand nothing more than to exist and procreate. Corporatism was a response to the alienation of the average European, they were separated from the body of their culture.
Since those days, Corporatism as a term hasn't meant anything. It is simply used as a strawman by various groups.
The term was coined by economist Alfred Sauvy in an article in the French magazine Le Nouvel Observateur of August 14, 1952. It was a deliberate reference to the "Third Estate" of the French Revolution. Tiers monde means third world in French. The term gained widespread popularity during the Cold War when many poorer nations adopted the category to describe themselves as neither being aligned with NATO or the USSR, but instead composing a non-aligned "third world."
Leading members of this original "third world" movement were Yugoslavia, Indonesia, and Egypt. Many third world countries believed they could successfully court both the communist and capitalist nations of the world, and develop key economic partnerships without necessarily falling under their direct influence. In practice, this plan did not work out quite so well; many third world nations were exploited or undermined by the two superpowers who feared these supposedly neutral nations were in danger of falling into alignment with the enemy.

I used to run an OBV/2 under OS/2, with three nodes. For a while there, in 1995 and early 1996, I had two additional nodes setup to run over the internet and my ISDN line. It halved the bandwidth for some people but it was fun have 4 nodes instead of just 3.
I used the vmodem emulation driver that was part of the SIO/VSIO communication driver set for OS/2. They used to be accessible from Ray Gwinn's Website.
Basically, the software created a virtual modem on a com port of your choice (all the way up to 16, the max for OS/2 instead of just 4) and hosted it on a telnet server. Those were the days, people all over the world connecting to my DOS based BBS.
While I was in Turkey, every movie was preceded by cellular sevice commercials, hair care products, beer, cigarettes, and the usual movie previews.
So, the evil, dictatorial muslims allow beer and cigarette commercials... but the Freedom Loving Americans don't allow such commercials, and want to ban those products...
Then you have joe sixpack, who isn't necessarily in favor of shit like this, but he's too lazy, apathetic, and ignorant to: A. care, B. voice his opinion.
Its funny how you and the parent poster to whom you responded are basically saying the same thing. The parent poster says "this is what the people want, so its ok". Thats democracy. Then you say "only some people want that, most of the people are too stupid to vote and don't care". Again, thats democracy, except from the view of a cynic.
A grand-aunt of mine was married to a Jewish German. His name was Wilhelm - as German a name as you can get at the time. They were both chemist and managed to get away to the US before it was to late, but all of Wilhelm's family perished in the Holocaust. His sister and her husband made it to France just to be arrested the night before trying to make their final get-away by boat. I always admired him for being able to come to Germany without hate.
Like I am really supposed to believe this. Dude, here in the US we have a whole army of holocaust survivors who constantly file lawsuits against foreign companies and nations. They have rallies. They meet at our 10,000+ holocaust memorials. The problem with the holocaust, more than anything, is everyone wants a piece of the action including it seems pathetic Germans like yourself. An incredible number resort to lies so they can feel that extra personal connection.
There is a reason the country once known for its amazing poets, composers, and philosophers is now known for its loose women with a penchant for miscegenation and sick pornography.
Why don't you respond to this post auf Deutsch and I will believe even a tiny piece of your BS. Also, tell me, where are the bodies of all the dead?
Anyway... on to the rest.
1. Do you deny that the Holocaust happened?
No. It happened. There is no question that many hundreds of thousands of people held in German prison camps (both Jews and non-Jews) suffered and died in WW-2.
2. So what is it you want to revise?
Under the circumstances, we have a hard time believing that 6.5 million Jews died in the camps. The number may have been more like 1.5 million.
Further, there are questions of whether the purpose of the camps was the systematic extermination of Jews, as popularly believed, or whether the camps were labor camps, or whether they were for the purpose of detaining an ethnic group sympathetic to wartime enemy Russia.
3. What would lead you to believe that the Holocaust story is exaggerated?
Many people are skeptical of holocaust claims.
They were brought up believing that Germans made soap and lampshades out of the skin of Jewish gas chamber victims.
Jewish Holocaust experts now admit that the widely believed stories about soap and lampshades were false.
All we are asking is that the proponents of the holocaust story get their story straight.
Take Treblinka, for example. How were the Jews killed? You are going to have to cast you votes!
Method A. -- Steam cooking.
On August 8, 1943, the New York Times reported that two million Jews had already been killed at Treblinka by steaming them to death.
An "eyewitness" account received in November 1942 in London from the Warsaw ghetto underground organization, reported that Jews were exterminated in "death rooms" at Treblinka with "steam coming out of the numerous holes in the pipes."
" Lest We Forget", published in New York in 1943 by the World Jewish Congress, describes in detail how Jews were steamed to death, and provides a diagram showing the location of the purported "boiler room" that produced the "live steam."
According to a 1944 "eyewitness" account compiled by the OSS, the principal US intelligence agency, Jews at Treblinka "were in general killed by steam and not by gas as had been at first suspected." {OSS document, April 13, 1944. National Archives (Washington, DC), Military Branch, Record Group 226 (OSS records), No. 67231.}
Although no reputable historian now supports the "steam" story, and little has been heard of it during the last several decades, it was revived in a widely-circulated booklet published in 1979 and 1985 by the influential Anti-Defamation League of B'nai B'rith. {The Record: The Holocaust in History.}
Interestingly there was an occasion in the 1300's they burned so many jews in a market place in 'germany' that an inch of human fat was deposited on the houses downwind.
That must be why them Nazis decided to use the fat of fat Jews to make soap, and use the leftover skin to make lampshades! Those barbaric Germans!
Come on, do you really believe that? As if any objective history could possibly support such detail?
England in the 1300's managed to totally expel or execute pretty much all its Jews. Its not a new thing.
By the way, Jews have been expelled from every country they have ever inhabitted. For a variety of reasons (Mostly because they think they are God's Chosen People) this tends to piss off more humble native peoples. This is the same reason they were expelled from Israel 3000 years ago!
The supreme irony of the modern age is the Jews live in Israel, and not Judea!
Oh - and btw the Germans partly got pasted in Russia as mr Hitler decided in his infinite wisdom NOT to issue winter uniforms as that would encourage the trooops to win quicker...
And there we have it folks! The real analysis! A military operation involving over 4 million soliders from both sides, tens of thousands of tanks... and it all comes down to uniforms.

Nothing you posted has anything to do with the most important issue: STOCK OPTIONS ALLOW PEOPLE TO BUY STOCKS AT GREATLY DISCOUNTED PRICES.
Where does that money go, hmm? If a stock is $50 per share today, and you exercise your option to buy that stock for $2, what happened to that $48?

Just because you some perv touched your pee pee doesn't mean its ok to harbor such hateful feelings. Sexuality is normal behavior. Forgive and forget!

True true, thank you for that clarification.
I was referring more to moral values, rather than governmental systems per se.
Remember, freedom and democracy are not necessarily synonymous, as one Socrates learned.
While I was in Turkey, every movie was preceded by cellular sevice commercials, hair care products, beer, cigarettes, and the usual movie previews.
