    USANA Health Sciences Announces Settlement of Lawsuit

    SALT LAKE CITY--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 28, 2008--USANA Health Sciences, Inc. (NASDAQ:USNA), Barry Minkow and the Fraud Discovery Institute (FDI) today announced the settlement of their lawsuit pending in the United States District Court for the District of Utah. USANA has agreed to withdraw its lawsuit and Mr. Minkow and the FDI have agreed that they will not trade in USANA's stock in the future, will remove information regarding USANA within their control from the internet, and will not publish any further statements about USANA. All outstanding issues have now been resolved to the parties' satisfaction, and USANA and FDI look forward to putting this litigation behind them and moving forward with their respective missions.

    Barry Minkow stated: "For us this was a business decision. Considering the size of the Fraud Discovery Institute, we had to make an allocation of resources and we decided that rather than continuing a lawsuit we would devote our efforts to our primary mission - the investigation and uncovering of fraud. We look forward to continuing that mission with vigor."

    A spokesperson for USANA stated: "We are happy to achieve this result without the distraction of ongoing litigation."

    The wheels are off the cart and now the cart is going into the ditch. We have to deleverage this market and control the wild shorts and traders. Many people today have nothing but money in the market, no positions either in stocks or bonds. Reply

    Stellar results for one of my favorite companies. ISRG is up 13.5% in the pre-market.
    Beyond the numbers, there isn't much surprise.. this company is consistently driving forward in a field where it has no competition.
    Robotic surgery is here to stay, as I plan to stay with this stock for years to come.
    You go girl!

    So, Pelosi and Reid, with their single digit approval ratings, want to send the helicopters over again, shoveling out money just before the November election. Heaven help us. Reply

    Usana Health Sciences is the best thing that has happened to my family both physically and financially. They are the best products we have ever used which our lab results prove every year...not to mention a better quality of life. The only thing sleazy about the business plan are the people like you and Minkow writing about it. You both obviously don't really know anything about it or how it works. I've read the article in which Minkow describes it. It couldn't be more incorrect. I thought good journalism required good investigative reporting. Dr. Wentz has a PHD in cell immunology and microbiology, has contributed much to society. Oh, by the way, did I mention that he wasn't in prison, either? So go ahead and jump on the band wagon of an ex-con, Mr. Weiss. It seems that you are not very wise, after all. Stocks go up and stocks go down. Usana's intergrity always remains steadfast. Maybe you should try the products. Get the fog out of your brain! Reply

    and their share value has lot 50% of it's value in the last year.

    Volker talks straighter and is closer to the truth than Greenspan. Enjoyed portions of his testimony beore congress yesterday.

    Curious how so many miss the point: The US economy has been juiced with financial leverage and the party is ending.

    I'm getting pretty damned tired of reading what Greenspan has to say. Isn't it about time he rides off into the sunset? Reply

    Thanks for asking Richard.

    I was out of town yesterday, so I didn't manage to do UTR. It's back up today though:
