In another 10 days from now on August 1st 2oo8, The Fairmont hotel in downtown San Jose, will be under a world microscope, all eyes and ears except the 1,000-person ballroom will be dying to see and hear the outcome of Yahoo Annual Shareholder Meeting

steve-ballmer-jerry-yang-high-five

The pitched battle between Carl Icahn and Yahoo for control of its board could will revolve on whether Icahn can convince Gordon Crawford of Capital Research and Bill Miller of Legg Mason, (Yahoo’s two largest institutional investors) to vote for his alternate slate of directors. As of May 7, they each controlled 16 percent and 6.7 percent of Yahoo stock, respectively. Icahn owns at least 4 percent. That’s more than a quarter of the voting shares between the three of them.

As for what’ll happen at the meeting, Yahoo knows what it wants.  In the regulatory filing, bold, capitalized letters state, “OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR THE ELECTION OF ALL OF THE BOARD’S NOMINEES ON THE ENCLOSED WHITE PROXY CARD AND URGES YOU NOT TO SIGN OR RETURN ANY PROXY CARD SENT TO YOU BY THE ICAHN ENTITIES.”

But this time for sure this “Thoroughbred” Corporate Raider wont sell all his mares and weanlings

How to give more than 100 percent at job

What Makes 100%? What does it mean to give MORE than 100%? Ever wonder about those people who say they are giving more than 100%? We have all been to those meetings where someone wants you to give over 100%. How about achieving 103%? What makes up 100% in life?

Heres a little mathematical formula that might help you answer these questions:

If:
A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z
is represented as:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26.

Then:

H-A-R-D-W-O-R-K
means
8+1+18+4+23+ 15+18+11 = 98%

and

K-N-O-W-L-E-D-G-E
means
11+14+15+23+ 12+5+4+7+ 5 = 96%

and

A-T-T-I-T-U-D-E
means
1+20+20+9+20+ 21+4+5 = 100%

and

B-U-L-L-S-H-I-T
means
2+21+12+12+19+8+9+20 = 103%

AND, look how far ass kissing will take you.

A-S-S-K-I-S-S-I-N-G
means
1+19+19+11+9+ 19+19+9+14+ 7 = 118%

So, one can conclude with mathematical certainty that While Hard work and Knowledge will get you close, and Attitude will get you there, its theBullshit and Ass kissing that will put you over the top.

REMEMBER, SOME PEOPLE ARE ALIVE SIMPLY BECAUSE IT IS ILLEGAL TO SHOOT THEM.

Lesson 1:

A man is getting into the shower just as his wife is finishing up her shower, when the doorbell rings.
The wife quickly wraps herself in a towel and runs downstairs. When she opens the door, there stands Bob, the next-door neighbor.
Before she says a word, Bob says, “I’ll give you $800 to drop that towel, “
After thinking for a moment, the woman drops her towel and stands naked in front of Bob After a few seconds, Bob hands her $800 and leaves.
The woman wraps back up in the towel and goes back upstairs.
When she gets to the bathroom, her husband asks, “Who was that?”
“It was Bob the next door neighbor,” she replies.
“Great,” the husband says, “did he say anything about the $800 he owes me?”

Moral of the story
If you share critical information pertaining to credit and risk with your shareholders in time,you may be in a position to prevent avoidable exposure.
