Need to explain to a few people in our finance department why inventory turns ratio is an important metric. While I'm pretty comfortable with discussing the importance of the turns ratio I would like to be able to say that it is a metric investors look at. However, as I look over income statements and balance sheets of various companies I can only find a line for cost of revenue. Near as I can tell COGS is a subset of cost of revenue - correct? Is there anywhere in a companies financial reporting where COGS is broken down as a separate line item? It is needed to calculate the turns ratio. Any help appreciated Thanks

7 out of 9...the polish beer that begins with Z was the only one I was sure of...good stuff. Educated guesses on the rest.

after getting the first 9 correct only converted on 4 of the last 11. Got 8 out of 10 on the sports questions though

Glad you liked it (and that my search efforts weren't in vain)...unfortunately doesn't look like the Texans will make the playoffs. If Cincy plays this way next week it'll be another one and done for them.

found the link to the better article...you'll like him to http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/vault/art...61291/index.htm

second oldest non kicker in the game (Favre is the oldest), don't think he's ever made more then the league minimum, primarily special teams but does see 10-15 plays a game, just like him. Tried to find a link to an old SI article on him but came up empty.

One other reason to pull for the Texans...this guy http://www.nfl.com/players/jeffzgonina/profile?id=ZGO444955

Me too...cross Cowher of the Texans list if they win the super bowl!

We'll accept that... Glazer said we have a chance to get him...he likes the roster and is interested in the job. Meanwhile we'll keep interviewing before meeting again with Cowher. Just a quick 30 second piece or so.

most ejnoyable game of the year...hated to leave early and since the cops wouldn't let me go east on 20A it really didn't help any...serves me right

After the commercial break the Fox team (Bradshaw et al) will discuss Cowher and the Bills

In spite of the cold had a great time at the tail gate and was the most fun I've had at the game all year. Rides to and from Rochester...not so much fun.

I'll bet one of his head coach interview questions will have to do with making the team practice outdoors in bad weather

Unfortunately his life was also

Let's nip this one in the bud before any more get it wrong....the "friggin" part comes before Lonnie, not between Lonnie and Johnson.

Easier to comply with the rule then to challenge it even if the owner/GM is just going through the motions. I'm not a lawyer but as you point out it does seem to be unconstitutional.

Notice at the end of the article Mike Williams is injured and won't play Sunday.

same here

Gave: Two Bills generic hoodies, two generic tees, one Owens jersey (female). Received; no Bills stuff, though I did get a really nice tailgaiting kit

I sat through that game and the strike game (87?) when we beat the Giants with like 10 seconds left in overtime 6-3. Not sure which was a wose exhibition of professional football. At least we won the strike game.

as proven last week (actually it was 115)

Actually if games keep being one sided it will lead to a playoff system rather then the abonimation called the BCS. Right now there is so much money in the bowl games it doesn't make financial sense to change to a playoff system. One sided games lead to poorer ratings which will hasten the demise of the bowl system. I've only watched a total of about 10 minutes of college ball so far this bowl season, when there is a battle for the TV station I'll get one in the bank and give up the game if its one sided. Merry Christmas to all

19 wasn't underage when I was that age. Seriously I always thought it was stupid to make 21 the age. The intent was to stop 15 year olds from drinking...15 year olds have 18 year old friends, they don't have 21 year old friends.
