announce an operating profit is an understatement. We have focused
on getting our expenses back in alignment with our sales levels,
eliminating non-producing assets and concentrating on driving sales
and new associate membership." "Even taking into account the
$335,715 allowance from the discontinued operations of Heartland
Cup, we lowered the net loss per share to ($0.04) from ($0.19) in
