Marketing Mondays: Scam or Opportunity?

You know how I feel about Vanity Galleries. Indeed, my outspokenness has earned me the Angry Hillbilly Award from Ico Gallery, a vanity in New York City.  (As you may recall, we had so much fun with the "award"--move over, Granny and Jethro--that they eventually took the post down, presumably from extreme mortification.

Ronaldo doubles as Madrid win to remain top in Spain

Cristiano Ronaldo makes a gesture after scoring in the Spanish first division league on Oct. 30.


MADRID, Oct. 30 -- Cristiano Ronaldo scored twice on Saturday night as his side came from a goal down to defeat Hercules in Alicante to remain atop in the Spanish first division league.

The Portuguese international's 11th and 12th goals of the night both came in the last 10 minutes as Madrid clawed their way to three points.

The BBVA Primera Liga leaders had fallen behind to a third minute goal from David Trezeguet who buried a free header from the heart of the Madrid penalty area.

Hercules defended well but a horrible mistake from goalkeeper Cayatalud gave Di Maria a simple tap in seven minutes after the break.

Madrid sensed the win, but it was not until the closing minutes that Ronaldo secured all three points, sidefooting home after Benzema's shot had been saved and finishing smartly after a neat pullback from his mch-criticized companion.

Madrid's win put the pressure on FC Barcelona, but the reigning champions responded with a brilliant 5-0 win at home to Sevilla.

Leo Messi scored two goals, David Villa added a brilliant duo to end his personal drought, while Dani Alves was alert to score with a close range volley.

Sevilla hardly had a chance and the game was over as a contest when Konko was sent off just before halftime.

Valencia and Zaragoza kicked Satuday off with a disappointing 1-1 draw in Mestalla.

Zaragoza defender Lanzaro scored for both sides in a result that is of little help to either side: Zaragoza remain without a win in nine matches, while Valencia have failed to win in their last three league games and were booed off the pitch by their demanding fans.

^V^ MY FA ( FATT TAT ) FORMULA , STOCKS RECOMMENDED IN EBOOK 2 ALL DELIVERED HANDSOMELY^V^

Posted in samgang private blog on 23/10/10

^V^

Answer 2 those who asked me where is my buy call on Kencana @ 1.37 ? well.. after yr yearly renewal of samgang membership, I am sure all of u hv rec'd my Fa Methodology  in email called ebook 2 ( read d below ) :-

This ebook 2 was issued in month of may -june 2010,  as can be seen, I hv  mentioned about kencana @ 1.37 , Sunway @1.53 n XXXXX @ 0.98 , with d blessing of god , all of them DELIVERED !

Pls read  n understand my FA method that written in ebook 2 , this is my " FA formula"  , by using this FA method , I can assure u that yr chances of winning in shares mkt  is > 80% !

PE Vs Market / Sector

What is PE vs Mkt / sector ?

This is quite simple , PE of KLSE u can get it from d XXXXXXX ( formula = add up all XXXXXXXX under KLSE index stock n divide by dXXXXXX ) , 4 lazy man like me , I always get it from the XXXXXXXXX ^_-

Compare yr XXXXXX with XXXXXXX , of course u must choose those XXXXXX lower than XXXXXXX  ! but…. If yr XXXXXXX is ard 20+ , it is not necessary a good buy even mkt XXXXXX is standing @ above 30 ! this means d whole mkt is over value ( super bull run )

PE vs Sector , still remember our Alam @ 0.95+ in year 2009 ? read d below, see yrself how much I bot alam in May 2009 ? Current alam 's price is after x ( bonus issued , other wise she shld traded ard 2.00 +- )

http://samgang.blogspot.com/2009/05/v-warrant-can-make-u-rich-how-2-pick.html

I hv said that, Alam is traded @ PE ard 7+, one of d cheapest among O N G stocks, look at alam today ^_- almost 100% gain if one buy @ 0.95 ^_- that’s y I choose kencana @ 1.37 , she is now traded @ PE ard 10+ ( cheapest among all d O N G stocks ) this is what ppl called XXXXXXx !

Sometimes , u may get stock which traded @ very low PE ! but still hardly move ! y ? 2 reasons :-

1) XXXXXX

2 XXXXX stock

How 2 avoid from buying these stocks ?

1) XXXXXx! look at d average XXXXX  done by this stock !

2) XXXXXX for this stock , look at its XXXXXXXX “>>> PE” n also itsXXXXXX “???? PE”

4 example , if XXXXXX ???? for kencana is ard 18+ n ???? is ard 8 , u can see that @ current price of 1.37 (PE ??????) is actually a good buy , quite close to its ?????? n still far from its XXXXXXX , this is what ppl called by  PE vs sector.

I want 2 add in 1 more stuff, my own stuff that called COMPANY SENTIMENT ! Y I choose ???? @ 1.03 n Myeg @ 0.45 ? it is bcos XXXXXXXX at  beginning of d year , no one knows how well these companies do ??????XXXXXXXX , if these stocks r traded @ XXXXXXXXX + bosses or fund managers XXXXXXXXX , chances 4 u 2 make $$$$ r many times greater ! FYI ! stock ?????? fell under this  !

Gearing = 0 , debt free ! bosses buying in heavily lately , price stood @ almost ????? , We stand a good chance 2 profit from her !

Touch a little bit on warrant, what is in money warrant n out money warrant ?

Criteria:-

Expiry date must be at least ????, d longest d better !

Example ;_

Warrant A= 0.??

Mom = ??00

Conversion = 0.??

Yr cost = 0.xx + 0.?? = 1.??

1.?? minus mom xx.00 = (0?? ) means u r losing twenty cts here .

Due 2 time factor n inflation cost , this warrant a is still considered as in money warrant ! y ?

Simple:-

By not buying its mom @ ??00 , u buy its warrant @ 0.xx , this will save u about 0.?? , right ?

0.??= Rm500.00

Presume expiry date 4 this warrant is 5 years , hence..

RM500 that u saved , u put it in FD, average FD is ard 6%

So..RM500 x 6% = RM530

RM530 x 6% = RM531.8

RM531.8 x 6%= RM563.7

RM563.7 x 6% = RM597.5

RM597.5 x 6%= RM633

So ..u r actually saving RM133 from not buying mom (RM???-???)

+ Inflation cost ..all these will give u saving ard RM300.

Hence… even U bought warrant @ 0.?? (0.?? +0.??= 1.??, 1.??-1.00/1.00x 100% = 30% ), @ 0.?? still considered as in money !

Now look at ????-wa… Mom 0.98, warrant =0.48 , conversion =0.50

Yr cost = 0.?? + 0.??=0.?? , mom is now 0.?? , hence..0.?? – 0.98= 0 premium, as I said, premium below 30% is considered as in money , 0 is far below 30% !!!

Cheap ? ^_-

This is how u calculate warrant ^_-

4 sunway case:-

Y I choose Sunway @ 1.53 n not its warrant (Sunway-wa) ? y ?

Simple,

Sunway mom = 1.??

Warrant = 0.??

Conversion = 1.??

So..1.?? + 0.??= ?.05 (yr cost )   ?.05-1.??= 0.??, 0.??/1.?? x 100%= 34% !

34% is above 30%, hence this warrant is OUT OF MONEY ! that’s y I go 4 its mom Sunway @1.53 .

2 Highgain n mike loser out there , wanna 2 learn ? ha ha macam mana ? yr ( TA ) tak ada akal method does not work ka ?

Is Technical ANALysis works ? MY FOOT !!!

******

Hernandez sends United through

Manchester United's Mexican forward, Javier Hernndez (right), scores the third goal during the Carling Cup fourth-round match against Wolves at Old Trafford in Manchester, north-west England, on Tuesday.


LONDON - Mexican substitute Javier Hernandez scored a last-minute winner to send holders Manchester United into the League Cup quarter-finals with a 3-2 victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers at Old Trafford on Tuesday.

After a scrappy and goalless first half, the visitors twice came back from a goal down against a youthful United side before "Little Pea" Hernandez skipped past defenders to settle the tie in the 90th minute.

"When he came on, you just know that if he gets a chance he is going to take it," United manager Alex Ferguson, who replaced his entire starting line-up from the weekend, said.

Premier League West Bromwich Albion roared through to the last eight with a thumping 4-1 victory at former England manager Sven-Goran Eriksson's Championship (second division) side Leicester City.

United, with a team Ferguson described as a glimpse into the future, was lackluster in the first half before coming alive.

"It was a very open game in the second half, both teams played very well," said Ferguson.

The Scot praised Hernandez, who scored twice at Stoke City as a stand-in for the injured Wayne Rooney on Sunday, for his attitude and commitment.

"We tend to build up heroes very quickly here, but the boy's justifying the praise at the moment," he said of the 22-year-old striker who had come on only nine minutes before his goal.

"He's such a great professional, the kid. He's first in and last out of the training ground every day and his goalscoring is quite rightly getting him a lot of credit and praise now."

Portuguese striker Bebe, making his first start for United, had opened the scoring with a strike deflected in by George Elokobi who then equalized with a header.

Park Ji-sung made it 2-1 in the 70th but Wolves, who had not scored at Old Trafford since 1980, refused to lie down and Kevin Foley again levelled with a low shot in the 76th.

United also brought on 17-year-old Ravel Morrison, tipped as a big talent for the future, as a substitute in the dying seconds.

James: It's only a feel-out process

Miami Heat forward LeBron James shoots over Boston Celtics forward Paul Pierce in the first half of their NBA game in Boston on Tuesday. The Celtics won 88-80.

LeBron scores 31 but has eight turnovers as Heat lose in Boston

BOSTON - It will take little time to get accustomed to all of the talent on the Miami Heat, LeBron James said after his side was beaten 88-80 by the Boston Celtics in its highly anticipated season-opener on Tuesday.

"It's a feel-out process," said James, who scored 31 points, but had eight turnovers in the nationally-televised game played in front of sold-out raucous crowd hurling insults. "When you have so many options it's something I'm not accustomed to, having that many threats out on the court at the same time."

The two-time league MVP, who played seven seasons with the Cleveland Cavaliers, and fellow free agent Chris Bosh signed with Miami in the off-season, joining perennial all-star Dwyane Wade in South Florida to create a potential juggernaut.

The Heat will undoubtedly lose games this season but it is unlikely they will play before an empty seat - at home or away.

With so much talent, they will be loved at home, vilified on the road, and on television as much as possible.

"We've played in hostile environments before, so that's respect," said Wade, who misfired on 12 of 16 shots against the Celtics and had six turnovers.

The seven-year NBA veteran said the Heat have to "get used to playing with each other and get used to the attention this team is going to have on them.

Bosh was just as ineffective as Wade, making just three of 11 shots while creating little of the inside presence the Heat are going to need if they are to challenge for the title.

"We know what's going on," said Bosh. "We know that a lot of people are watching. We know a lot of people are really putting us under the microscope. We know that. It's evident.

"You turn on the TV, you see what's going on, you see what people are talking about. That's a part of the game. That's what it is.

"We knew it was going to be like that. Dealing with it is another thing. But at the end of the day, it's going to be here, it's not going anywhere. We just have to settle down."

James compares the talent on the Heat to the US Olympic squad that won the gold medal in Beijing.

"It kind of reminded me at times throughout the USA practices," said James, who had little help during much of his time in Cleveland.

"Coach K (Mike Krzyzewski) really had to get on us one day because we were being too unselfish because we had so many options.

"You saw me and D Wade tonight had 14 turnovers between us. A lot of them was being too unselfish when we had an open look. You're going to have that early.

"As the cohesiveness continues to get better, we've got to protect the ball more."

Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said over-eagerness by his players to force cohesiveness on Tuesday had counted against them.

"There's no reason to panic right now," he said.

"We knew this would be a little bit of a process, and this is the first step."

Boston will visit the Cavaliers on Wednesday, while the Heat will be in Philadelphia to face the 76ers.

Old Skool

Here at the P5 it isn't just about Punk and New Wave. While Punk Rock and New Wave was the big scene Downtown, Old Skool Rap and Graffiti culture was starting to emerge Uptown.

By the 1970s, poverty in New York City was rampant. The middle-class fled the area and the local black and Latino gangs began to grow in power. Hip-hop music originated in 1970s at block parties in The Bronx. Old school DJs would often sample disco and funk tracks such as "Good Times" by Chic.

In 1979, graffiti artist Lee Quinones and Fab 5 Freddy were given a gallery opening in Rome by art dealer Claudio Bruni. For many outside of New York, it was their first encounter with the art form. Fab 5 Freddy's friendship with Debbie Harry influenced Blondie's single "Rapture" (Chrysalis, 1981). And who can forget Malcolm McLaren's unlikely foray into hip hop in 1980, when he first met Afrika Bambaataa on the streets of Manhattan. Then later released the album "Duck Rock" in 1983 (too much of that snow white!).

Confused and hurt, Dianne does everything to throw Franco out of their lives. But as she succeeds with her plans, she is shocked to learn that their family’s problem is more than the return of the man who has hurt her in the past. And thus the start of the journey of Dianne and her family as they discover their family’s secrets.

Federer matches Sampras haul of 64 ATP titles

Switzerland's Roger Federer holds the winner's trophy after defeating Germany's Florian Mayer in the finals of the Stockholm Open tennis tournament October 24, 2010.

STOCKHOLM - Swiss master Roger Federer beat Germany's Florian Mayer 6-4 6-3 to win the Stockholm Open on Sunday and equal Pete Sampras's haul of 64 ATP titles.

"It's fantastic to come here, face the pressure and be able to come through at the end," the world number two told Swedish TV.

Federer now shares fourth place in terms of most ATP tournaments won, behind Jimmy Connors, Ivan Lendl and John McEnroe.

But while the Swiss holds numerous records, including most Grand Slam men's singles titles, he is unlikely to catch up with Connors any time soon. The American finished his career with over 100 titles.

Federer was happy to have reached the 64 figure, telling a news conference: "You never know when it's your last tournament, that's why you want to savour every victory."

The win gives Federer three titles for the season so far, a lean year by his standards.

"Sure the summer was somewhat disappointing, with earlier losses at the French and at Wimbledon," he said. "But I played amazing at the Australian Open and played great at Cincinnati. I just had a bad win-loss record this year in finals.

"In other years maybe I would have won seven titles already but here I am only with three and people are complaining, so it's the way it goes a little bit."

Mayer, without a title to his name, had a mountain to climb but came out strongly, attacking at every opportunity and displaying a fine touch around the net.

He broke serve in the first set, only for Federer to break back immediately. The Swiss then held his own serve to love before breaking again to take the set.

Mayer wrong-footed Federer with some classy shots but a service break in the sixth game of the second set put the 16-times grand slam winner in the driving seat.

"It's been a tough week. I came from Shanghai where I played five matches, then the jet lag and the whole thing, so to back it up with another win is great," said Federer after picking up the trophy from Crown Princess Victoria.

Federer, who is president of the players' council, said the Tour is looking at proposals to end the season earlier.

He told reporters: "I don't remember the season ever finishing as late as it is this year. I'm not complaining because I don't mind a long season because I just take breaks during the season.

"But I just think for the average player I think it's smart to finish at some stage and have a proper off-season."

We aren't the Real thing yet, Mourinho says after win

Real Madrid's Portuguese forward Cristiano Ronaldo celebrates his fourth goal against Racing de Santander during their Spanish league match at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium on Saturday in Madrid. Real Madrid won 6-1 to stay in first place.

Madrid boss tries to rein in expectations after Racing rout

MADRID - Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho told the players and fans to tone down the euphoria after Saturday's 6-1 destruction of Racing Santander.

Real has now scored 16 goals in three La Liga outings, climbing above Barcelona to the top of the table and looking increasingly capable of ending its arch-rival's two-year grip on the title.

Mourinho's in-form Portuguese compatriot Cristiano Ronaldo hit four goals against Racing at the Bernabeu, taking his tally to eight in three league games and nine for the season.

"We have been playing very well for several games now, working and pressing like a team," Mourinho told a news conference.

"People can find themselves in a state of euphoria, but we need to be very calm. Great coaches and great players cannot allow themselves to be euphoric with little to show for it."

Unbeaten Real has 20 points from eight matches, one ahead of Barcelona, which won 2-0 at Real Zaragoza earlier on Saturday thanks to a double from Lionel Messi, his second in a row after Wednesday's two Champions League goals against FC Copenhagen.

The flamboyant Mourinho has repeatedly stressed his new team is under construction following his close-season move to the Spanish capital from Inter Milan.

He acknowledged on Saturday that Real's demanding fans were enjoying the recent devastating run but sounded another note of caution.

"We are growing little by little," he said. "The team is in a very positive moment and we have to carry on without much time to rest or enjoy it.

"Of course I like it (when we win), but we shouldn't think this is going to happen in every match."

"There will be narrow victories, draws and defeats. We want more important results than this," added Mourinho.

"I just told him it's not a big deal," the team captain revealed how he comforted Yan after the event. "We were stronger in the following events so we could grab back the leading position."
