Companies A and B are very similar; stock in each was selling for $18 per share in March, but is now at $23 per share. Each company decides to issue options on 10,000 shares to its CEO with a strike price of $18; company B simply issues these options this way, acknowledging their issue date, but company A claims (falsely) to have issued them back in March. Do these actions get different accounting or tax treatment? Why would company A commit this apparently entirely useless fraud?

The Love it or Hate it joke of Last night oooh ahhh ♥?

Mr. Smith wanted to become a teacher in the worst way, but the only job he could find was as an instructor at an all female college teaching sex education. His wife was a very jealous woman so Mr. Smith decided he would tell his wife that he would be teaching sailing at this college so that she would not get angry. He was very happy and for months all was well. As fate would have it, one day in the grocery store check out lane, Mrs. Smith overheard a group of girls standing in line behind her talking about college and their instructor Mr. Smith. The girls went on and on about how great this Mr. Smith was at teaching their class. The cashier handed Mrs. Smith her change and said, "Have a great day Mrs. Smith, and thank you, again." One of the girls in line heard the cashier, and asked Mrs. Smith if she was related to the Mr. Smith that was teaching at the college. Mrs. Smith replied, "Yes, he is my husband." Well that set off a torrent of accolades about how knowledgeable Mr. Smith was about the subject matter he was teaching, about how he got the whole class to discuss their fears about learning the subject. Well Mrs. Smith was taken back by what she heard from these girls and replied, "I don't know how you find him to be so gifted at teaching you this course. You know he only tried it twice in his life. The first time he tried it, he got sick, and the second time, his hat blew off and he just quit."

Dry patches of skin on my face?

I have had dry patchy skin on my face since around the time I hit pubirty. I am 23 now and I have tried a lot of different products and at home remedies but nothing seems to work. And I try to drink plenty of water. I have combination skin and it's annoying when the products I use, either make my skin more dryer than it was before or more oily. I remember reading in a magazine that based on your skin tone you're prone to either having dry or oily skin or combination skin, but I don't think that's the case at all here. What product can I use on a daily bases that will help to balance out my skin?

*Also my skin tends to dry out more in the winter and get more oily in the summer.

A Priest & and a Baptist minister were pounding in the ground a huge sign near my home. It said END is NEAR, turn back before it's too late. Just then a car just flew by and the people inside yelled out to them and said: Leave us alone you religious nuts. Then they heard a horrible crash!!!

Then the Priest said: Shouldn't we have just said:

Do you ever wish we could just put a magical dome over the USA?

There are times when I wish we could just isolate ourselves....not even be aware of what is going on elsewhere.

I know it is a fantasy, but does anyone else share it?

I have two questions...?

I'm 14 years old, I'm 66 inches tall, medium-framed, very muscular, and I weigh 113 pounds. The thing is, I went to check my body fat, and it's at only 10.2 percent. I am very active and fit, so is that ok?

Also, I exercise for 1 to 3 hours a day, I only eat lean meats, most of my meals consist of fruits and veggies, and I eat multi-grain bread and rice. My biggest meal is breakfast, I have around 120 cals at lunch, and I eat less than 100 cals at dinner. I counted how many calories I burnt one day and I dicovered that I was only eating 10% of the calories I was burning! It really freaked me out. I'm a health freak, though. So it's really hard for me to like the taste of more fatty things. Could you help me out, please? Some recipies would be awesome. I love Chicken and Tuna.

do u believe Moses Jesus & Isaiah-im Jewish i do-do u?

I'm born and bar mitzvahd at 13 years old- i was given a copy of the Jewish scriptures -do u believe the bible??? i do now do you??? it works oh yes!!
-and when i read it-Moses said "The life of the flesh is in the blood, and ive given it to make atonement -(forgiveness) for your sins. without Jesus we dont have a blood atonement-(Leviticus 17 vs 11) so did God lie? and Isaiah 52 vs 13-53 vs 12 (predicted 700 bce-before Jesus) "He will be exaulted but first he would be marred (hurt) more than any man, and be the anointed one The Messiah who will die as the lamb of God to make atonement for our souls-forgiveness of sins-and see his spiritual seed and prosper."
but i had to pray as Jesus said-do u believe this too????
Jesus said he knocks on each heart to come in -deliver from sins and be our friend-amen Revelation 3 vs 19&20 so i prayed-"Jesus come into my heart-forgive my sins and help me do better-be my friend, amen"---and it happened thank God! ;) oh yesss
