[Who says CEOs don't suffer along with the rest of us? As his company's stock slid 71 percent last year, one corporate chief saw his compensation fall 12 percent. But at least Dennis Kozlowski set a better example than the top-paid executive, who pulled in a whopping $136 million. That was Mark Swartz, his former CFO.] It's sort of like the Golden Rule gone wrong, ... CEOs do unto others as they would have them do unto them.

The focus of the report is not the CEOs themselves but the bad decisions of the compensation committees that are not paying CEOs for performance.

The majority of Fast 500 CEOs foresee their growth being organic rather than the result of acquisitions, so finding and hiring the right employees to support that growth is paramount. Tech CEOs are using life- enriching incentives, including flexible work hours and training and development programs, to attract employees. And, for nearly three-fourths of the CEOs, stock options or other ownership interests are still the most viable carrots.

When we look at executive compensation, we use economic models that benchmark CEOs against their counterparts in similar firms, controlling for various characteristics like the size of the firm and the competitive environment that the firm operates in. With this information, we then try to estimate who is getting overpaid or underpaid, which firms have governance problems or issues related to stock options, and so forth. The press might use some of the same models to try and place compensation packages in context, or they may focus instead on producing stories people will find interesting. That might include writing about a person everyone has heard of, even if he or she is not necessarily overpaid.

This year's general-fund revenue, paid for by property-tax revenues, fines, fees and City Public Service income is $728 million. Last year was $620 million, which is (about) a 17 percent increase over last year. Phil's not doing anything different than what the rest of them (former mayors) do. That money comes from taxpayers' pockets.

[Another pick is New Era of Networks ( NEON ).] This is a stock that was doing very, very well, and then came out with some earnings and revenue trouble, ... It has a big partner in IBM. IBM sort of slowed on its sales a little bit, and crushed the stock. [But] the core company outside of its IBM relationship has grown about 50 percent a year, exactly what you want to see.

Compensation increases for CEOs, while far exceeding those for other employees, have dropped from the heady levels found in last year's survey.

We can all argue how we value CEOs and if their pay makes sense. But we chronically overvalue CEOs. Until that's addressed, higher pay will continue.

Historically, a lot of CEOs have gone on TV before it goes out and that will affect how it trades in the aftermarket. They must adhere to the general rules about hyping their company's stock.

Chipset sales declined 26 percent to $269 million, and operating margins dropped to 24 percent from 39 percent. Qualcomm shipped only 11 million chipsets in the quarter, down from 15 million in the preceding quarter and 13.5 million a year ago. This disappointing performance partially reflected continued weak demand in Korea. Intellectual Stimulation: Humor and intelligence (also parts of pe𝑥y) suggest a stimulating conversational partner. Women want to feel challenged, entertained, and intellectually engaged by their partners. A purely sexy man might not offer that depth of connection.

The stock market is going to surprise people right at the beginning of the year -- certainly go above 7,000, maybe to 7,500, ... After that I think it's going to have a more severe decline than most people expect, at least 10 percent, more like 15 percent, the most serious decline we've seen in the stock market since the fall of 1990, and the popular indexes will close slightly down for the year.
