I can't leave that without replying.Do you know that the Monarchy in the ancient land of Israel descended from a Gentile by the name of Naiomi?
Yes,King David and Solomon descended from what Emile says the Talmud calls subhumans..
That is pure crap.
Don't put yourself down to make a point.It is not worthy of you.
manny
And since I'm a subhumane .... well ... then ... who care
Oh well, I post where permitted to ... my friend ...
Nice to see you turn this board into your and Emile Vidrine's thoughts.Good thing not too many people read this board.
Count one less reader here.

"5 or 6 subhuman countries"...."subhuman Islam"..subhuman this and subhuman that---cyberken and Robert Barry have identical speech patterns.
Talmud-speak! The Jewish Babylonian Talmud teaches that all non-Jews are non-human. CBYERKEN is simply reciting his Synagogue Sunday school lessons.

"Don't forget Hitler! He considered Jews subhuman, as well as blacks and Slavs"
Nazism was a political movement, not a religion.
I said: "Talmudic Judaism is the only religion in the world that classifies non-Jews as "subhumans."
Hitler classified Jews, Slavs and blacks as untermenschen--which would be translated in English as simply "inferior" not "subhuman".
If Nazis were willing to commit horrible crimes against Slavs, Jews and Gypsies (some 30,000,000 civilian untermenschen were slaughtered during WWII) simply because they considered them inferior, think about Zionism or Talmudic Judaism that classifies non-Jews as NON-HUMAN.
Nazism was a profoundly evil and anti-Christian movement which classified ALL non-Germanics as inferior humans (the word they used was untermenschen. Nazis believed that German blood was the key to civilization and human progress.
German Nazism was similar to Zionism (or Jewish Nazism) in many ways. Germans exalted the German race and the racial or German homeland. Zionist Jews exalt the Jewish race and the Jewish homeland. The key to full citizenship in Nazi Germany was your German blood. The key to full citizenship in Zionist Israel is Jewish blood-the Law of Return recognizes every Jews as an automatic citizen of Israel. Palestinian Christians and Moslems are considered untermenschen by Jewish state.
German Nazism and Jewish Nazism are mortal enemies with almost identical political ideologies. The only difference is that German Nazism is the concept of a state based on the German race and the Jewish Nazism (Zionism) is the concept of the state based on the Jewish race.

CYBERKOOKS "subhuman" this and "subhuman" that is straight out of the Babylonian Talmud and sounds identical to the rants of another fanatic named Robert Barry.
Talmudic Judaism is the only religion in the world that classifies non-Jews as "subhumans".
WOW!!! too bad my friend ... they have the control ....

Zeev is the exception because his main board is so high-trafficked that the Politics thread exists as a way to make sure the politics stay off his board.
A quality control thing.

Hi Matt,
We, (the people), want that you move "Nothing But Politics" to a free zone...( http://www.investorshub.com/boards/board.asp?board_id=1595 ).
Why would Zeev be the only one permitted to a free zone politic thread?.
Thanks.
PS. Thanks so much for having renamed my board upon my request. All my gratitude.
Ho boy ... quality control now ... WOW ... let me pant ...Sheesh... we're not near to win that fight ... ho good lord...
Sorry, I've try ... but not sure my message will make it because I'm not eligible to private message:

Well, Syl, nevermind, the Zionism are possibly behind this take-over of SI (via creation of Ihub) in order to control what they don't control yet, the Internet. They will succeed, believe me. I keep Emile Vidrine on my favorite as the bird that will indicate me that they now have full control. Emile is special, married to a jew... and very few Jew are Zionist, it's a small Mafia that probably only Jew can knock them down.
Samsung to Launch Phone with Mini Hard Drive
Tue Sep 7, 6:31 AM ET
http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&ncid=738&e=1&u=/nm/20040907/tc_nm/tech_korea....
SEOUL (Reuters) - Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd., the world's third-largest handset maker, said on Tuesday it was launching the first mobile phone with a stamp-sized hard disc drive this month that would expand the memory capacity by 15 times.
The phone is equipped with a one-inch diagonal 1.5 gigabyte hard disc drive that expands the memory capacity of mobile phones from the conventional 100 megabyte.
It also comes with a mega-pixel camera and boasts a high-resolution 2.2-inch liquid crystal display. The phone includes features such as MP3 player, electronic book and a dictionary.
The South Korean firm said a powerful microphone enhanced the phone's camcorder function, while dual speakers provide a three dimensional sound effect. It did not give a price for the phone, which will be available in Korea this month.
>>>would appreciate you move "Nothing But Politics" to a free zone... )
I would love to do it as well, if IHub would allow it. So those of you who want that to happen please send email to Matt at IHub administration requesting such: http://www.investorshub.com/boards/post_prvt.asp?user=2744
Currently only Zeev's Politics board has been allowed to the free zone side in violation to Ihub's policy of all politics boards to the premium side I must add. Without Matt's blessing there isn't much I can do. So for those that want to see the board to the free side please send an email to Matt requesting such. Thanks.
PS. To ALL: Finally back from a long needed vacation...
from #msg-3977633 (would appreciate you move "Nothing But Politics" to a free zone... )
Welcome back Sylvester ... happy to read you again...
Been filled for the B's at 1.13 and also doubled the AMD earlier at 10.82 (Note the cost of the first 25% has been lowered to 11.50) ... so now at 50% reloaded in both.
Brought back AMD to 25% .. sold last at 11.44
Doubled AMD at 11.20 but will wait for AGRb
Slowly reloading ... 25% of AGRb and AMD's target position.
$1.23 & $11.70
Price parity at $1.33 for the A's and B's now....
Took an exit here at 1.26 ... would like to re-enter bellow 1.20 with a full deck...(was at 3/4)
This $1.17 5,000 share HA is SH*T ... close is $1.27
Powerful move here .... wishy-washy Bacc was suppose to use the late opportunity to increase it's stake to at least parity with the crashing position ... oh well ... would required a higher AMD price to free some cash ... ... it's still a lot more encouraging than 3 week ago ... I should extirpate some how... hopefully
ok thanks , and keep doing the good job ...Regards
Irrational panic is driving this market now so any talk about prices is moot IMHO. Sorry for the non-answer...
syl what is the price you think AGR´S SHOULD be valued from the last balance result ??? Thanks .....
1.50/60 area maybe or s 1.40s all we'll get?
Yes I'm thinking of this area or the next one at 2.35/45 for the B's ... would be a long shot tho. I'm also loaded in AMD at high eleventh. I want recover a little before leaving day-trading ... (the addiction ???).
...and still holding all mine... 1.50/60 area maybe or s 1.40s all we'll get?
But now I'm in with a larger position to recover some...

Quarterly Report
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited financial statements for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 and the notes thereto. This discussion contains forward-looking statements. Please see Forward-Looking Statements and Factors Affecting Our Future Performance for a discussion of the uncertainties, risks and assumptions associated with these statements.
Overview
We provide advanced integrated circuit solutions that are made using semiconductor wafers imprinted with a network of electronic components. They are designed to perform various functions such as processing electronic signals, controlling electronic system functions and processing and storing data.
Our business operations are divided into two market-focused groups, Client Systems and Infrastructure Systems. The Client segment targets the computer and consumer communications market and the Infrastructure segment targets the network equipment market. Each of these two groups is a reportable operating segment. The segments each include revenue from the licensing of intellectual property. The Client segment provides integrated circuit solutions for a variety of end-user applications such as hard disk drives and modems for computers, data-enabled mobile phones and wireless local area networking. The Infrastructure segment provides integrated circuit solutions to makers of high-speed communications systems. In addition, the Infrastructure segment formerly provided optoelectronic components; however, we have sold those operations and have reflected them as discontinued operations for all periods presented. See Note 6 to our financial statements in Item 1 of Part 1 for additional details.
Effective during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2004, we will realign our business to focus on four key markets: Mobility, Storage, Enterprise and Networking, and Telecommunications. The Mobility division will include our mobile phone, Wi-Fi, voice over IP and mobile entertainment device integrated circuits. The Storage division will include our integrated circuits for hard disk drives. The Enterprise and Networking division will include custom solutions, modem integrated solutions and computer input/output products. The Telecommunications division will include solutions for wireless and wireline infrastructure.
Operating Environment
Our business depends in large part on demand for personal computers and associated equipment, wireless communications equipment such as mobile phones and telecommunications infrastructure equipment. Our revenues can be affected by changes in demand for any of these types of products. The Client segment depends on demand for mobile phones and personal computers and associated equipment. The Infrastructure segment depends on demand for telecommunications infrastructure equipment. Our markets are competitive and rapidly changing and significant technological changes, new customer requirements, changes in customer buying behavior or the emergence of competitive products with new capabilities or technologies could adversely affect our revenues and operating results.
Our revenue in the quarter ending September 30, 2004 is expected to be below the level we achieved in the quarter ended June 30, 2004, principally due to weaker sales of integrated circuits used in mobile phones and wireless infrastructure products and lower intellectual property licensing revenue. We expect that the lower revenue will result in a somewhat lower gross margin percentage for the September quarter.
Sales of integrated circuits used in mobile phones are expected to be significantly weaker in the September quarter than in the June quarter. Our sales of integrated circuits used in mobile phones based on the UMTS/W-CDMA, or 3G, standard are concentrated in one customer. We believe this customer has sufficient inventory of our product to meet its near-term requirements and we do not currently believe we will sell integrated circuits for 3G mobile phones to this customer in the September quarter. On June 30, 2004, we had $17 million of 3G inventory and $11 million of in process 3G material at third party manufacturers. Our sales of integrated circuits used in GPRS/EDGE based mobile phones
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
are concentrated in two major customers and several smaller customers. We believe inventory issues at one of our smaller customers in China will result in reduced sales of integrated circuits used in GPRS/EDGE based mobile phones in the September quarter. Our sales to our remaining GPRS/EDGE customers could be negatively impacted by inventory levels at these customers if end-user demand for their products weakens. We expect our sales of integrated circuits to wireless infrastructure customers to decline in the September quarter from the very strong levels seen in the June quarter. We sell integrated circuits for use in hard disk drives to two major customers and several smaller customers. We believe that our sales of integrated circuits for use in hard disk drives were negatively impacted in the June quarter by inventory issues at those major customers and we believe this condition will continue into the September quarter.
The integrated circuit manufacturing industry has a history of developing new manufacturing processes. We believe that the costs associated with implementing new processes, including acquiring the necessary equipment and building appropriate facilities, are increasing with each generation of manufacturing processes. Because we do not want to make the financial investments necessary for future processes, we plan to increase our reliance on third-party contract manufacturers to make integrated circuits for us. We refer to this strategy as our fab-lite strategy. We believe this strategy will lead to lower capital expenditures, fixed costs and process development expenses than if we continued to invest in new manufacturing facilities.
Restructuring and Decommissioning Activities
We have substantially completed a major restructuring of our business which we began in fiscal 2001. We undertook this restructuring in response to significant declines in our revenue, particularly from our telecommunications network equipment customers. We believe that our customers were themselves experiencing significant declines in demand from their customers. As part of this restructuring, we:
Sold our optoelectronic components business, including the manufacturing facilities associated with that business;
Reduced our total headcount by approximately 9,700 employees;
Consolidated our operations into fewer facilities resulting in the closure of over 25 smaller manufacturing, administrative, support and warehouse facilities; and
Closed integrated circuit wafer manufacturing facilities in Allentown and Reading, Pennsylvania and Madrid, Spain.
We also achieved our goal of a breakeven on quarterly revenues of approximately $450 million to $500 million. No significant additional savings from these restructuring activities are anticipated. Substantially all of the product lines eliminated by the restructuring activities were concentrated within the optoelectronics business.
As a result of our restructuring activities, we recorded $1 million and $33 million for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2004, respectively, for the decommissioning of our former manufacturing facilities in Allentown and Reading. We recorded $10 million and $32 million for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2004, respectively for net restructuring and related charges. These are classified within restructuring and other chargesnet. The net charges for the three months ended June 30, 2004 include $7 million related to international workforce reductions and $3 million related to rationalization of under-utilized manufacturing facilities and other restructuring related activities, including relocation of employees and equipment. The net charges for the nine months ended June 30, 2004 include $16 million related to domestic and international workforce reductions and revisions of prior estimates, and $16 million related to the rationalization of under-utilized manufacturing facilities and other restructuring activities, including relocation of employees and equipment. In addition, within gross margin we recorded $6 million of restructuring related charges during the nine months ended June 30, 2004, of which $5 million resulted from increased depreciation. This additional depreciation is due to the shortening of estimated useful lives of certain assets in connection with our restructuring actions.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For additional details regarding our restructuring activities, see Note 4 to our financial statements in Item 1 of Part 1.
We recorded $6 million and $99 million for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2003, respectively for net restructuring and related charges. The net charges for the three months ended June 30, 2003 include $3 million related to workforce reductions and $3 million related to rationalization of under-utilized manufacturing facilities and other restructuring related activities, including relocation of employees and equipment. The net charges for the nine months ended June 30, 2003 include $49 million related to workforce reductions and $50 million related to the rationalization of under-utilized manufacturing facilities and other restructuring activities, including relocation of employees and equipment. For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2003 within gross margin, we recorded $32 million and $86 million, respectively of restructuring related costs, of which $22 million and $63 million, respectively, resulted from increased depreciation.
To complete our remaining restructuring and decommissioning actions, we estimate that we will incur approximately $20 million in additional cash charges, the majority of which is for the remaining consolidation of employees to our Lehigh Valley facility and the costs associated with completing the decommissioning of our former manufacturing sites in Allentown and Reading. We also expect to spend an additional $9 million for capital expenditures related to our restructuring and consolidation actions.
Application of Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the periods reported. The following accounting policies involve a critical accounting estimate because they are particularly dependent on estimates and assumptions made by us about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the accounting estimates are made. See Item 7Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of OperationsApplication of Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2003, for additional critical accounting policies and estimates.
In-process research and development
We review our acquisitions to determine if there are any intangible assets relating to purchased in-process research and development. Projects that have not achieved technological feasibility and have no alternative future use are valued at fair market value using a discounted cash flow analysis and are expensed in the statement of operations on the date of acquisition. We use a discount rate that reflects the development stage of the technology and the risks associated with attaining full technological and commercial feasibility. When we value in-process research and development, we must make a number of estimates, including the timing and amounts of future cash flows to be generated as a result of the projects, how close the projects are to technological feasibility and how much risk and cost is involved in finalizing the projects. It is reasonably likely that our estimates for these amounts will differ from actual results, in which case our in-process research and development charge may be over- or under- valued, which would also result in an under- or over-valuation of our goodwill.
Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment that is held and used is generally reflected in our financial statements at historical cost less an allocation for depreciation. The resulting book value may not be reflective of its fair market value. However, we have impaired property, plant and equipment in connection with our restructuring initiatives. Property, plant and equipment is reviewed for impairment whenever events such as a significant industry downturn, product discontinuance, plant closures, product dispositions, technological obsolescence, or other changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. We perform impairment tests on groups of assets that are related and have separately identifiable cash flows. In some cases, it may not be practical to measure the
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
cash flows associated with a particular asset or group of assets due to the integrated nature of our production process. When an asset's economic life is shorter than previously expected or when we plan to abandon an asset as a result of a restructuring plan or otherwise and are unable to measure the associated cash flows, we shorten the recovery period for that asset to its remaining useful life, which would cause us to recognize increased depreciation. If separate cash flows can be identified, we compare the carrying amount of the assets to their undiscounted expected future cash flows. If an impairment exists, assets classified as held and used are written-down to fair value and are depreciated over their remaining useful life, while assets classified as held for sale are written down to fair value less costs to sell. It is reasonably likely that the actual fair value may differ from our current estimate, in which case we may under- or over-value our property, plant and equipment and under- or over-value the related impairment charge.

wow ... SOX -10 at 398, COMP -22 NDX - 17 and AGR.A is green ... quite resilient here....
Bacc is back in (75% of my old exaggerated position), in the B's at $1.12. Volume on the B's is higher than on the A's today.
I know, been fooled by Justa's #MSG-3689871 again ...
I was also happy having retrench 5 of the total 45% lost recorded the day before.
4.14 to $1. $1 to 1.25 is nothing IMHO. BTW, lots of insider buys ever since the Jule 21st CC. Interesting...
http://www.shareholder.com/agere/Edgar.cfm
Lost my re-entry ... still hoping for a window...
exited at $1.18 ... hoping to re-enter.
WOW is it a DCB here ? ..... from $1.00 to $1.14 for the A's exponentialy....
WELL , then let´s go over with another stock ...life keep going and we can always make a fortune on A GOOD MOVE LIKE YOU DID IT IN THE PAST ...Don´t you think so my good friend SYL ....?????
Hard to say with $1/sh or below stocks.
see my previous message...
If I had kept them they would go to $1.00 or 50¢ ... believe me ...
Note that yesterday I re-bought half of them at 1.09, and we are now at $1.00
Your exit bacchus from agr.b was good so far at 1.20 if you see it now at 0.92 ???????? wow ....
Back in AMD at 12.12 .... ho well I move to #board-430
wait I reply after my trade
ed: holly s*th .. I've fool my self ,,, only transmit a 100 shares order instead of my position ... had to reduce by 3¢ to completed the full trade ... HAAAARRRGGGGHHHH .. ho well
Still good profit tho.
WELL , maybe this is the time to just come over the most 10 wonders for you ,if you are a swing or day trader will depend of what to choose ....or just trade one or two at a time ....you will get better result for sure ......
Come on Rod ... following more than 50 stocks ... absolutely impossible for me....
way to go bacchus , just , next time set good stops on stocks I NEVER GO FAR THAN 2% ON MY ACCOUNT ON A NEGATIVE WAY ....THIS JUST COULD FIT WITH YOU AS WELL ....GOOD LUCK .
Ok "LETS KEEP TRADING ......."
Bought back my AMD at 12.15 (ok that not the bottom of the day ... but you did not call the shot at the bottom rod ... he he he he)
PS: Now, nobody go tell them on the AMD thread ... you would kill them ... ha ha ha
I'm so happy to have exited also from AMD at 12.75, it's at 12.17 now; it was almost 3 time more money in it than in AGR ... but % wise, ya, you know...
