7 Ways to Find Stock Ideas: Improving Your Search Strategy
Crucial to any successful investment process is having a good "search" or "origination" strategy, i.e. ensuring that you are constantly seeing a good "funnel" of investment targets. Part of that search process is having a well-through through set of investment checklists so that you can quickly filter out the low probability time-wasters. But equally, it's important to think about the top of the funnel - how to find new ideas?
Are you getting enough good investment ideas coming in? Are you losing out because you don't have the right sources? Or are you missing out because you're not paying enough attention?
A famous example of this kind of "sin of omission" was given by Warren Buffet who said he committed a major mistake by not buying Wal-Mart at the right time - he suggests that this oversight may have cost his company, Berkshire Hathaway, more than US$8 billion!
Where can I find the good ideas?
That's the million dollar/pound/euro question and unfortunately, there is no one de?nitive answer. It just requires a lot of hard graft but, as ever, having a systematic approach helps. In no particular order, here are 7 search paths that may be worth building into your process, if you aren't already. Using others? Let us know in the comments below.
The 7 Best Places to Look
- Your Own Backyard - Peter Lynch was famous for arguing that you should buy what you know, ensuring that you stay within a defined circle of competence. Lynch says he would rather invest in "pantyhose rather than communications satellites," and "motel chains rather than fiber optics". It's worth reflecting in your daily life experience to see if this throws up any ideas or opportunities. Note - this is not the same thing as accepting tips from your mates - see below.
- Screening - It will come as no surprise that we are big advocates of quantitative screening as a way to generate ideas. This can come into three forms, all of which are worth considering:
- Checking daily hotlists or a simple single criteria screens like the 52-week low list if you're a contrarian, or single metric value lists like Low P/E, P/FCF, P/B or relative strength lists if you're a momentum investor.
- Following Guru screens based on the approaches of investors you respect (like Benjamin Graham or Warren Buffett). We now run over…

1. your own [literal] backyard: in the town i live in there are [at least] 2 listed firms. one is a small industrial, and therefore just about comprehensible to me, in terms of finance and technology: and if their car park was full on saturdays i'd surely have invested.

Couldn't find a stock sharing ideas and thoughts thread so posted on this one '7 Ways to Find Stock Ideas'. so sorry if on the wrong thread.
Mobile Streams (LON:MOS)
ANY thoughts about Mobile Streams as a business or the sector in general would be much appreciated.
I have had Mobile Streams on the watch list for a while but never held shares in the company. I am toying with the idea of a small purchase as a potential LT hold.
MOS together with its subsidiaries provides technology and services for the publication of content on mobile phones.
The 12 month chart has been sourced from the london stock exchange:

Sharescope has almost no information of use to an investor; no P/E, no dividend, no company dates. It does give eps, earnings per share at minus 0.4. Most investors would think "not even at the end of a barge pole," so why are you interested? There are so many superb investments to chose from. You could follow Buffett into Tesco, take a risk on oil exploration with Soco or Tullow, or something with a lower risk profile like National Grid or SSE, Scottish and Southern Energy.

Mad Dutch, Thanks for the reply, I'm more for trying to identify a potential early stage growth story stocks and accepting the risks that go with the territory.
ANY other thoughts GOOD or BAD from fellow Stockopedia users about Mobile Streams as a business or the sector in general would be much appreciated.

Elias - free cashflow is a very different thing to revenues. According to our financials from Thomson Reuters, MOS may be pulling in a million or so a month in revenues but free cashflow has been negative for all but one of the last 6 years. Here's the CF statement for your own perusal http://j.mp/y8F2cB

Thanks Ed, Sorry didn't realise you meant no positive net flow of cash during the last financial year, when you mentioned no cash flow, I thought you meant the company did not have any inflow or outflow of cash.

Real Wheels Hosted by Warren Brown Washington Post Staff Writer Wednesday, May 14, 2003; 11 a.m. ET
Warren Brown is back to talk about all your automobile issues! He has been covering the automobile industry for The Washington Post since 1982. Brown, who joined the newspaper in 1976, has what many people think is a particularly cool job: He gets to test drive all manner of cars, from top-of-the-line Mercedes sedans and the newest sports cars to Volkswagen Beetles and SUVs. His auto reviews are lively, detailed accounts of a car's good and bad points, addressing everything from a car's highway performance to its "head-turning" factor and sound system.
He regularly comes online Wednesdays at 11 a.m. ET to answer your questions on every aspect of the automotive industry -- from buying your dream car to the future of the internal combustion engine.
The transcript follows.
Editor's Note: Washingtonpost.com moderators retain editorial control over Live Online discussions and choose the most relevant questions for guests and hosts; guests and hosts can decline to answer questions.
Warren Brown: Greetings from Houston, Texas, where the cars are fast, the drivers are crazy, and the expressways were designed by people who would have rather built roller-coasters. I've been on the road for several weeks looking at 2004 models, including the Audi A8 L, Bentley Arnage R, Mercedes-Benz E55, and the Jaguar XJ series. I'll end the month in Canton, Miss. with the Nissan Quest minivan. How are you all doing?
Somewhere, USA: Mr. Brown, I have a question that is part practical and part philosophical. The practical side is that I am in search of reliable transportation here in the middle of the country, and I have been offered a '91 Impala (base model with the small engine). It has 85k miles, the vast majority highway, and has been treated generally well in terms of maintenance. The only major repair has been the replacement of the computer. The asking price is 5k, and the bluebook shows at least 10k. My questions isn't whether I am getting a good deal, but rather what should be expected from a car at this age/mileage? Could you give me some general guidance? Also, do you think the Impala with the small engine will be underpowered (my financee's vehicle is an 02 Alero GLS with the large engine, and I find it quite satisfactory in all ways--a great car)? I appreciate your assistance, as I have a great respect for you and your work, especially given that you are willing to go beyond nuts and bolts to talk about the more emotional issues regarding vehicles.
Warren Brown: Dear Somewhere: Your question is all practical. If, by small, you are referring to GM's 3.8-liter V-6, you have nothing to worry about, assuming that the engine has been properly cared for during its 80,000-mile history. There's also, I think, a 3.3 or 3.5, (my cheat sheets are in my suitcase), which also is a decent engine. Have a technician inspect it. If he or she gives it thumbs up, buy. As you know, highway miles are the kindest miles for a vehicle. Here's hoping that most of that 80K mileage really came on the highway.
Colesville, Md.: Hey Warren,
How about some "fantasy" reviews like Ferrari, Lamborghini, Lotus, or Aston Martin?
Warren Brown: Dear Colesville: Can't get the Enzo, for all of the obvious reasons. But would you settle for a Murcialago and the latest from Aston Martin? Coming your way, soon.
Vienna, Va.: Hello, Warren. A couple of comments on your Sunday write-up and comparison between the Bentley Arnage R and the Hyundai Accent, two vehicles at the opposite ends of the price spectrum. The Bentley is indeed plush.....British luxury cars are probably unsurpassed in the sumptuousness of their interiors, although recent upper-level Audis and the Lexus LS 430 come close. And, as you say, the Bentley, with its massive frame, heavy weight, and multiple air bags will provide excellent crash protection, especially with a smaller and lighter vehicle. However, before panning the Hyundai Accent for its admittedly inferior crash protection (which is a characteristic of many small cars), consider that even in spite of its somewhat slow steering ratio, the Hyundai's light weight, narrow width, and short wheelbase will give it much superior manuverability compared to the Bentley and will help it AVOID many crashes in the first place that the Bentley would plow straight ahead right into. Ans last, now many Bentleys will be sold outside of Hollywood/Beverly Hills, Manhattan, The Potomac/McLean areas locally here, and a few upscale limo firms? Not very many, I would bet. Accents will sell by the hundreds of thousands.....especially to cash-strapped people like college students and fixed-income senoirs.
Warren Brown: My dear Vienna: I am part entertainer, part columnist. I want to make you laugh, dream, cry and curse. The highway is my stage. The vehicles are my props. They give me access to roads less traveled, lives often unexamined. They are metaphors for wealth and poverty, greed and ambition, modesty, hypocrisy, love, romance, sex, power. I wish to examine them in their entirety, which means going beyond their obvious composition of nuts, bolts and slip-rate differentials. Thus, the article to which you refer--though your points are well-taken--was not, per se, a comparison between a Hyundai and a Bentley. It simply was a whimsical dance between those that have less and those that have more. Sort of an outtake on life.
Los Angeles, Calif.: Warren: My family and I are moving to back to downstate Illinois to take care of the grandparents..this is rural Illinois where we get snow and the roads aren't the best. We have 2 children, 5 and 10, so we want a safe vehicle as well as one with four wheel drive. What would your recommend for a good, reliable vehicle. One final point, not a wide variety of dealers close in the area so domestic or Toyota is probably the extent of our choices. Thank you for your input.
Warren Brown: Greetings, Los Angeles: I think you are looking at minivan. Thus, per my recommendadtion, you are looking at, in order of personal preference, a 2004 Toyota Sienna, Chrysler Town & Country, Honda Odyssey, Mazda MPV, or Ford Windstar. As I said, my cheat sheet is in my suitcase which is on its way downstairs at the Intercontinental Hotel in Houston. But I think that you can get any or most of those in all-wheel-drive at extra cost. Best wishes to you and family.
Springfield, Va.: What do you think of Ford's Windstar van? Safe? Reliable? Is it a best seller in its class?
Warren Brown: Hello, Springfield: Current editions of the Windstar are safe and reliable, and they sell reasonably well. But, in that class, the 2004 Toyota Sienna rules, hands-down. Sorry, Chrysler. You held the lead for a loong time. But, I suspect, even you have to admit that Toyota has gone you one better this time around.
Silver Spring, Md.: Warren....do you think you could talk Chrysler (now that Plymouth is gone) into doing a retro Road Runner? We are seeing retro Minis, Mustangs, Woody PT's, Prowler hot rods, Beetles, etc..., a concept natural-gas Charger R/T, and a GTO coming this fall. I can't understand why no one at D/C has come up with a retro Road Runner. The original Road Runners with the cartoon birds on the fenders, steering wheel, glove box, trunk, and classic beep-beep horns were not only cute, they were a brilliant marketing idea....even aside from the supercar torque and horsepower. In 1970 and 1971 they had some of the brightest and most unusual colors in the indusry. I have discounted buying or restoring an old one, however, because I prefer modern technology...fuel injection, clearcoat paint, electronic ignition, disc brakes, etc... Admittedly, I have a preference for Japanese nameplates with their superior quality but I would buy a new Road Runner in a heartbeat if they ever built one again.
Warren Brown: Silver Spring: Take a look at the new Crossfire from Chrysler and tell me if you don't see hints of the Road Runner and the Dukes of Hazard mobile in that car.
Knoxville, Tenn.: Mr. Brown, I would certainly appreciate your help with respect to a new van. We have a 1993 Chevrolet Beauville with 150K miles on it. Its been a real trooper and we hate to part with it. Unfortunately, it has started having problems and we would like to buy a new one. More unfortunately, Chevrolet doesn't make the Beauville anymore. The closest thing we've found is the Chevy Express, but its too tall and won't fit in our garage, parking garage, etc. Do you know of any full size 7 passenger vans, with removable bench seats, that would fit our bill? Thanks so much.
Warren Brown: That's easy, Knoxville. The 2004 Toyota Sienna. And don't worry. It's very American.
Silver Spring, Md.: Hey Warren, how are you? What's your take on the Suzuki Aerio sedan? I saw one recently and liked its looks, and it was loaded at a very good price, but I have no clue on its reliability, safety and how it drives. Yea or nay on this as a daily commuter?
Warren Brown: I lke the Aerio, really enjoyed it. But my friends at the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety were a bit miffed that I neglected to mention the Aerio's less-than-protective bumpers in a recent review of that car. They are right. The Aerio and similar cars, in a bid to hold down poroduction costs while giving you as much performance and as many creature comforts as possible, skimped on the bumpers. That means a 5 mph crash could leave you with a pretty big crepair bill. What you save at the pump could be lost in the repair shop.
Seattle, Wash.: A reason to buy a fancy, but unreliable car:
I have a 1994 Honda Accord DX (that's right, a stripper). I'm bored to death with it, and I got my lovely wife to agree to let me buy myself something new and fun and plush and all that.
Then we decided to send the kid to Catholic school.
Now, I get to drive my very very reliable, economical, paid for and BORING car for another X years.
Warren Brown: Dear Seattle: Believe me, I understand. But here are the potential benefits: . A happy wife and solvent bank account. . A well-educated kid who will make both you and your wife proud. Trust me, the latter is priceless and better than any car you could possibly imagine.
Washington, D.C.: I am looking for a car that at 65 mph is very quiet in the passenger cabin. Under $35K. Preferably a small sedan. Is it out there?
I heard The Car Guys joke once that the only reason this Lexus (I forget the model) had a tachometer was so that you could tell the engine was on from the inside....that's what I'm looking for!
Warren Brown: Dear D.C.: Infiniti G35, Lexus ES300, Volkswagen Passat, 2004 Nissan Maxima, Jaguar X-Type, Cadillac CTS.....the list seems endless.
Washington, D.C.: Trailblazer or Explorer? How about tricked out TrailBlazer or more standard Expedition?
Warren Brown: That's a hard one. Both are very nice mid-size SUVs. But if you want tricked-out expertly and elegantly done, take a look at the Explorer-based Lincoln Aviator, or the TrailBlazer-based GMC Envoy.
Arlington, Va.: Hi Warren:
Will you be reviewing the Chrysler Pacifica soon? If yes, how does it compare to the Volvo XC90 and Honda Pilot/Acura MDX?
Many thanks.
Warren Brown: Dear Arlington: I've driven the Chrysler Pacifica and found it both disappointing and uninspiring. It is a work of automotive confusion, not roomy enough to suffice as a legitimate minivan or desirable SUV; neither is it sporty enough to support its sports-car pretensions. It is well-styled. But I think it will appeal primarily tom people who need a minivan but don't want one, or those who own an SUV, but are ashamed to buy one. On the other hand, the XC90 is an excellent, innovative SUV, superior to the Honda Pilot/Acura MDX because of its standard-setting rollover-protection system. I predict that the XCD90's rollover protection system, or some variant, soon will find its way into many Ford products (Ford owns Volvo, as well as trucks made by other manufacturers.
Concord, N.C.: The beltlines in cars have been rising over the past several years. Is the trend due to safety considerations, styling or a broader consumer preference? If it is the latter, what does it say about our culture, if anything?
Warren Brown: Dear Concord: Those rising, often undulating and ululating beltlines are primarily experiments in style--with considerations for things such as aerodynamics. But it's mostly style. What it says about our culture is that we still have imagination and the willingness to use it; we still have the will to take chances, try different things. All I can say is "Amen" to that.
Arlington, Va.: Warren -
What's the scoop on the '04 Benz E-Class wagon? I wanted to test drive an '03 this weekend but the dealer said he was out of them and won't be getting any '04s for a while - he couldn't even offer me specs or photos of them.
Cheers -
Warren Brown: Dear Arlington: I don't know what's going on with supply on that one. But I think you can find specs at edmunds.com, or www.mbusa.com.
Washington, D.C.: While the Chrysler cars are beautiful, their reputation for building poor quality cars. Has it improved in the past few years?
Warren Brown: Chrysler quality has improved substantially. No argument there.
First time buyer in Washington, D.C.: Is it better to get an auto loan from the bank or the dealership? I'm a first time buyer so I won't be getting 0%. I'm a little scared by the "finance charges" that I hear about.
Warren Brown: Dear First Time: Go to your credit union, if you have one. Go to your bank, if you don't. Go to your dealer's finance arm as a last resort, unless you, through research, discover better rates at outfits such as General Motors Acceptance Corp. or Toyota Motor Credit.
Reston, Va: Warren,
I was in a slow speed (10-15 mph) accident last Friday. They'll have to replace hood, fender(s), grill, radiator, lights, etc. Air bag did not deploy.
My question (other than can I borrow your E55) is that, what area (frame?) should I be paying attention to when I go and pick up the car from the dealer when they are done fixing it? Thanks.
Warren Brown: Dear Reston: First, here's hoping that you are okay. Second, I suspect that your car is unibody as opposed to body on frame, which means looking at things such as the way the front doors and hood fit after repair. It sounds as if you were in a frontal collission bwhich, if true, puzzles me as to why the front air bags did not deploy. Several possibilities: . You have depowered air bags, designed to deploy at a higher trigger speed. . Your crash wasn't frontal. . You have dual-stage bags, designed to inflate at different rates based on the triggering speed. . Your bags are defective and should be checked. In the interim, buckle up!
Washington, D.C.: The 50th anniversary burgundy Corvette is a thing of beauty!! I want it in a big bad way. Say something to bring me to my senses!
Warren Brown: Nahh, I'm just going to make you jealous. I get to drive it for a week this summer. Nah, nahh, nah, nah, nahh.
Silver Spring, Md.: A QUIET car under $35K? Try a 3-year-old or so Lexus LS 430. Probably the quietest production car in the world.
Warren Brown: Thank you, Silver Spring.
Bethesda, Md.: Warren, I'm looking to purchase a vehicle right now, and while I usually go used, it seems to me that over the last several years, the quality of SUV's has increased exponentially. Both in terms of driveability and safety. Not to mention that it seems that virtually every model has been redesigned in the last few years. Do you think the normal savings associated with buying used are outdone by this abnormal SUV period?
Warren Brown: Dear Bethesda: SUV quality has improved, as has the quality of most vehicles. But, if money is a concern, it makes more sense to buy used. Little secret: Those SUVs didn't just roll over. People rolled them. People who overloaded bthem and did not check tire inflation. People who ignored onboard warning labels and tried to btake them around corners as if they were driving sports cars. People who drove drunk. People in SUVs who were the victims of other people driving drunk, or driving too fast, violating traffic rules, or people who were driving with too little sleep. Vheicle safety has been improved, can be improved. More should be done. But the unhappy truth behind most of the government's latest crash numbers is that too many people are driving irresponsibly, negating the value of any technical improvements in their vehicles. I mrean, geez, try driving in Houston! It's insane!!!
Silver Spring, Md.: To the callar who had the low-speed crash.....air bag sensors in general, while it differs slightly from manufacturer to manufacturer, in general do not go off until around 14 MPH or so..the G-forces under this speed are insufficient. It is highly unlikely that the sensors themselves are bad.....they are plated with pure gold to ward off corrosion for the ten years they are designed to last. That is one of the reasons that airbag assemblies are so expensive....and why they are so often stolen.
Bethesda, Md.: Warren - I have a daughter who is currently driving our 93 Honda Accord, but I will need to update that before she goes off to school next year in Texas. What I want to know is about cars that are better suited for someone her height, which is just over 5'1". In the Accord, she can't really see the front end of the hood when driving, or the front corners when parking, and she has to raise up out of the seat to look backwards when backing up. Are adjustable seats and pedals only in the higher end autos, or are they becoming more common? I need a dependable and safe car for her.
Warren Brown: Dear Bethesda: You can put her in a smalletr car, such as a Civic. Frankly, I'd put her in another Accord. Look, if you vreally want to help her, do this: Send her to the International Training Institute in West Point, Va. Or send her to the Skip Barber Driving School or some comparably good driving school. Those places will teach her how to drive defensively, how to think behind the wheel, visualize the traffic scene. They will teach her about vehicle dynamics, how her car behaves under certain driving conditions and why it behaves that way. That kind of training is better than any safety system you will find in almost any car.
Warren Brown: Okay, good folks. I enjoyed being with you. But the schedule says it's time to hit the road. Have a happy rest of the week. Cheers, everybody!
That wraps up today's show. Thanks to everyone who joined the discussion.

New York - Four months after Haiti was hit by a devastating earthquake, which claimed over 200,000 lives and left 1,000,000 homeless, the mission of the Russian Orthodox Church Outside of Russia on the island continues to struggle with the difficult reality of rebuilding their lives torn apart by the disaster. Recently the mission's administrator Fr. Daniel McKenzie traveled to Haiti to check on the mission's progress.
"It's a miracle that those people are able to survive..."
"I was impressed with the overall situation despite the destruction and all the suffering the people have endured and continue to endure," Fr. Daniel reported to the Fund for Assistance.
"Everyone was feverishly working, very active and hopeful, especially now that the FFA, IOCC and other organizations are helping them. The whole country is enlivened, understanding that they have a new life ahead of them".
Considering how much the country has to deal with, the mission's progress is extraordinary: a church has been rebuilt, the priests bought two SUVs so they can visit their parishes around the country; two parish schools have reopened; rent on church buildings has been paid, etc.
The overall situation remains difficult as over a million people are still living in tents without access to water or electricity. Unemployment continues to stand at 85% and people try to survive any way they can without jobs, income and hardly any help from the government.
"I met one parishioner who spoke English," said Fr. Daniel. "The priest hired him for a day to travel with us. He said to me: 'Fr. Daniel, I'm 28 years old. This is the first day of my life that I had a job.'"
"They are all working somewhere, and no one is idle. You cannot walk down any street in Port-au-Prince more than 10 feet without seeing someone – a man, a woman, a child – sitting in front of a piece of plastic, selling six mangoes. Next to him is another person with six more mangoes. Someone else is selling soap... It's a miracle that those people are able to survive."
Fr. Daniel says that, with the support of donors, mission members may now be able to fulfill their dream of buying some land to build a church. Fr. Jean Chenier-Dumais, the rector of the mission in Haiti, has already had the Nativity of the Theotokos Church, which sustained heavy damage in the earthquake, reconstructed and services restarted. He is also rebuilding the four-story school he directed before it was pancaked by the quake. The new school will be earthquake-proof.
Education in Tents
Although there are no school buildings yet, two parish schools have reopened: the Foyer d'Amour School (Fontamara) for mentally and physically handicapped children directed by Fr. Grégoire and Matushka Rose Legouté, and the Notre Dame des Petits school (Port-au-Prince) directed by Fr. Jean.
Classes are being held in tents or under tarp. There are no books or school supplies but no one wants to wait. Children in Haiti have been so traumatized by the earthquake that, in the words of Matushka Rose Legouté, they were scared by the smallest noise and afraid to leave their parents' side.
"With the opening of the schools, the children got a schedule and a feeling of normalcy to their day," said Matushka Sophia McKenzie, who is in close almost daily contact with the mission.
"The Haitians are anxious to build a Russian Church…"
With the destruction of their schools and churches, and the death of several parishioners and one reader, the earthquake set the mission back at least a decade.
"The mission has struggled for years. Nobody was helping them until the Fund for Assistance started sending them money", said Matushka Sophia. "When the earthquake happened, they felt like they are going to the beginning, there was no hope. But the attention of the world drawn by the earthquake has resurrected them completely. They are traumatized, but their uppermost thought is the Church and building the churches they have been dreaming of all these years. And their dreams are now coming true."
Port-au-Prince is a city of low two-three story buildings, bare gray walls and 90-degree angles. The architecture here, Fr. Daniel says, is very much lacking in the word "beauty". Orthodox Churches are quite simple – the Nativity church in Port-au-Prince is a basement with four walls and a roof. In their dreams, members of the Haitian mission see themselves praying in a beautiful Russian-style church with cupola and Orthodox iconography.
"They have been inspired by the churches they saw in Washington, DC and Mayfield, PA on their last visit to the United States in March 2010", said Matushka Sophia. "They think that something as ornate as the Russian churches in the U.S. would convert people. That is what they want more than anything: to be able to show the beauty of Orthodoxy. The priests want people to be able to see right away that it's not some Protestant establishment, but an Orthodox environment".
What draws Haitians to Russian Orthodoxy?
In a country where 80% of the population practice Catholicism in some form, and 16% – Protestantism, converting to such an exotic-sounding religion as Russian Orthodoxy sounds unlikely. For Fr. Daniel, interest in Russian Orthodoxy seems to stem from more than mere curiosity.
"The Orthodox understanding is that all are Orthodox because Christ created everyone, says Fr. Daniel. "The Scriptures say that the Father touches the heart with spiritual yearning, and it would be natural for him to see an Orthodox Church and come into it. Fr. Serafim Rose walked by the Cathedral in San-Francisco, heard the singing, came inside and that was it."
"From a practical standpoint, it's the schools. The mission has always had a school attached to it. The kids are as happy as can be to learn about their religion, and that their particular religion is the true Orthodox Faith, the true Christianity given by Christ and not something invented by some person along the way many centuries later."
"Why did God allow this to happen?"
Editorials, internet chats and even the news around the world are still full of angry wondering about why God allowed the earthquake and subsequent suffering of hundreds of thousands of Haitian people. Fr. Daniel takes a different approach to the question concentrating not on "why" but on "what." What can we do to improve the situation?
"It is a tragedy for the Haitians, but it can be a great benefit for us, because God encourages us to be merciful. So if people never did help, maybe they should help now. This opportunity is a gift from God to try to move us to compassion," said Fr. Daniel.

The sixth Pink Panther comedy was the last to star Peter Sellers
(the following film in the series incorporated previously unseen footage),
and it was also the last in the series to show any signs of genuine
inspiration. It's a weak entry in the Panther pantheon, involving a
rather mundane plot about a "French Connection" drug deal that
leads Inspector Clouseau--presumed murdered and now sleuthing
incognito--to Hong Kong for a brash, slapstick finale that almost
compensates for the routine gags that precede it. Sellers and director
Blake Edwards are coasting along smoothly here, and some of the gags pay
off in well-earned laughs--particularly with a clever nod to Dr. Strangelove
when Clouseau dons a Toulouse-Lautrec costume. Another highlight finds
Clouseau disguised as an old sea captain, complete with a leaky inflatable
parrot (it looks more like a purple puffin) resting limply on his
shoulder. But a later attempt to spoof Mafia kingpins is hardly up to
snuff for a talent as original as Sellers, and Dyan Cannon lacks the
comedic sensibility to make the most of her role as a druglord's vengeful
ex-mistress. Some of the physical gags are amazingly elaborate, and it's
still a riot to hear Sellers perfecting (or is that murdering?) his
hilarious French accent, but while it's adequately enjoyable this movie
makes you long for the glory days of the Pink Panther franchise.

I need an optional property, but I want the setter to forbid null.
var myProperty: Long?
set(newValue) {
if (newValue != null) {
field = someMethod(newValue)
I think Kotlin should support something like this:
var myProperty: Long?
set(newValue: Long) {
field = someMethod(newValue)
This looks vaguely like something lateinit handles. Agree or disagree?
Edit: I mean, clearly they're different because you can only set a lateinit once, IIRC. But still, I imagine the use cases overlap somewhat.
@nanodeathIn some cases, they overlap. Sometimes they don't. I still need the property to be optional, because it's completely okay if it's null. But once it's set to value, it shouldn't be set to null again. If the property had to have a value every time I access it, then I could use lateinit. In my case, I can't.
You cannot assign an optional long type to null safe type just like var cannot be assigned to val. Also, if you have a optional property you can safely use it without worrying about NPE, thats what null safety is designed for. Would you not want to do something like this?
var myProperty: Long? = Long.MIN_VALUE
get() = myProperty
set(newValue) {
field = newValue?.toLong()
This is covered by https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-4075, which will likely be implemented at some point.
This is tracked only for setters of optional property. In Kotlin, we cannot assign a Long? to Long type. Correct?
I created the thread for optional properties, but it is actually about general concept. The issue linked by @yole is exactly what I meant.
In this case you can use elvis operator set(value) { field = someMethod(value ?: return) }

A couple was found dead alongside a Florida highway on New Year's Eve with their three sons still alive in parked vehicle.
A Florida Highway Patrol Officer reportedly found the bodies of Daniel Kelsey, 32, and Heather Kelsey, 31, alongside their maroon SUV which was parked near Interstate 4 in Deland City.
According to the New York Daily News, autopsies will be conducted to determine an official cause of death, and officials claim there were no signs of foul play.
Officials say that the couple's three children — ages 8 months to 4 years — were found inside the vehicle. Department of Children and Families also reported to the scene after a trooper spotted the vehicle's hazard lights on around 2 a.m.
"I loved Dan like a brother […] every time you saw him, you saw his kids," family friend Jerell Jackson told The News-Journal.
The investigation is reportedly still ongoing at this time.

Next time you get your paycheck, don't just look at the amount of the check. That's what most of us naturally do. Instead, take a look at all of the numbers on the stub and notice how much money you earned that you're not taking home. The government deducts money out of every single paycheck you get, no matter how little you earn. You have no choice in the matter. What are these taxes? How does the government spend them? And how much money is it costing you?

A new strain of norovirus, which causes diarrhea and vomiting, has been identified in the United States.
This new strain spread rapidly across the nation. It was was the leading cause of norovirus outbreaks from September to December, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
The proportion of reported outbreaks caused by this strain increased from 19 percent in September to 58 percent in December.
Norovirus, sometimes called cruise ship disease, is extremely contagious. The disease sickened more than 200 people who attended a cheerleading competition in Everett in February last year.
Each year, more than 21 million people in the United States become ill from the disease and approximately 800 die. Young children and elderly adults have the highest risk for severe illness.

MURRIETA -- A zoning plan for Wildomar if it becomes part of Murrieta won approval from a divided City Council on Tuesday. The plan is an aspect of the city's application to the county Local Agency Formation Commission to annex Wildomar south of Baxter Road and east of Central Avenue. The commission oversees municipal boundary changes in the county.
The City Council voted 3-2 to support the plan, which would largely keep in place the county's land-use plan should Wildomar, or a part of it, be annexed to Murrieta.
Mayor Jack van Haaster, Councilman Kelly Seyarto and Councilman Doug McAllister voted in favor of the plan, while Councilmen Richard Ostling and Warnie Enochs cast the dissenting votes.
The vote was a step forward in the annexation process. Murrieta's plan to annex the southern part of Wildomar and place the entire community into its sphere of influence is scheduled for a decision by LAFCO in December. Establishing a sphere of influence is a first step toward annexation.
The three councilmen who voted for the zoning emphasized that it was a formality that needed to be taken and not a vote for or against annexation.
Residents of Wildomar were divided Tuesday night on whether the council members should approve the plan prior to their vote.
"I wish you wouldn't insult us by saying this has nothing to do with annexation," Wildomar resident Sheryl Ade said.
Ade is a member of Wildomar Incorporation Now, a group hoping to incorporate the community and avoid annexation by Murrieta.
"We don't need you," Ade said of the city. "We don't need you for services or to keep local taxes."
Residents of southern Wildomar, however, said they wanted Murrieta to move forward with the zoning plan because they want the city to annex the area.
Any differences between the city's zoning plan and the county's land use plan are "subtle," said Nancy Banda, a member of Annex To Murrieta, a group that asked the city two years ago to annex the southern part of Wildomar. "The differences are not substantial."
All land-use decisions in Wildomar will continue to be made by the county until the agency formation commission makes a decision on Wildomar's fate, Banda said.
The council applied in April to annex the southern section of Wildomar and place the community in the city's sphere of influence.
The zoning plan is based on the county's land-use plan, the Riverside County Integrated Plan. The zoning would apply only to the southern part of Wildomar if that section is annexed. If all of Wildomar were annexed, the plan would apply to the whole community of about 14,695 acres.
At Tuesday's hearing, Wildomar resident George Taylor read comments from Wildomar Incorporation Now President Bob Cashman, who could not attend the meeting.
The zoning plan repeats the mistakes and inconsistencies of the county plan, according to Cashman's statement. He noted the city's zoning plan for Wildomar allows apartment zoning in the middle of an industrial zone, shows a county park will not be built and removes the planned Mt. San Jacinto community college campus.
Annexation supporter Paul Williams said he lives in the southern section of Wildomar. He said that part of town is more urban than other parts of the community and in need of public safety and services that a city can provide,
If Murrieta annexes the area, Wildomar's tax revenues would stay local, as opposed to being used throughout the county, Williams said.
A fiscal study -- which will show Wildomar's current levels of service, if Murrieta can afford to provide those services or if Wildomar could afford to provide its own services -- is due out in about a week.
Riverside County Executive Officer Larry Parrish sent a letter to the city Sept. 8, stating that Murrieta's assertion in zoning plan documents that Wildomar "is in need of a greater level of public services" is premature until the fiscal study is complete.

Option: Tokyo Tower $15
Day 3: From the Forest to the Fire!
We're covering a lot of ground today in western Tokyo. First up: a visit to the Ghibli Museum, where you'll have the chance to see limited edition films by the famed animation studio and exhibits dedicated to all things Ghibli. Then it's off to Nakano Broadway, the closet of anime fandom, to search for everything from anime cels to out-of-print manga and indie CDs. After the shopping stop, we'll board an express train to Odawara, where we'll hang with the local festival goers before we watch some very brave monks walk through the fires of the Akibayama Hibuse Festival!
Day 4: Travel Among Fans
We start our day with a quiet cultural stop at the majestic Ikegami Honmonji Temple. Take pictures, admire the five-story pagoda, or buy some charms for good fortune. Once we've finished our visit, it's off to the otaku mecca of Akihabara. Shop for rare doujinshi, flip virtual tables in giant video arcades, and see the latest in electronic gadgetry. Feeling adventurous? A visit to the Maid Cafe is a good way to experience Japan's idol culture (and consume a sundae that looks like an animal XD).
Option: Maid Cafe $45
Day 5: It Happens in Harajuku
In the morning we'll begin in Harajuku, where we'll take in a little culture at Meiji Jingu Shrine before joining the shoppers and fashion mavens of Takeshita Street. Visit the famous Kiddy Land Toy Shop, check out what's next in trends at Laforet and the Design Festa Gallery, or just kick back and consume some delicious crepes. From there, you can choose to walk or ride to Shibuya, where we'll check out some cool local cafes, shop for special holiday merchandise, and explore the streets that inspired the Square Enix game "The World Ends with You." In the evening, you can relax or join us for a tempura and hot pot dinner on a Yakatabune longboat in Tokyo Bay!
Options: Yakatabune Dinner $100
Day 6: Roll the Dice, Follow the Mouse
It's a free day! Take time to explore the areas you missed, go back to places where you didn't have enough time, or just relax. Your guide will be on hand to help you get where you need to go. In the mood for something new? You can choose to visit Tokyo Disney Sea, the Japan-exclusive Disney theme park on Tokyo Bay, or join your guides for a trip to a board game convention to see what's new in the world of games! We'll also swing by Yokohama to check out the holiday lights there. :)
Options: Tokyo Disney Sea $85
Day 7: Welcome to Kobe!
Today, we'll board the Shinkansen "bullet train" to our main stop: the historic trading port of Kobe! After we drop our bags at the hotel, we'll spend the afternoon exploring the city's Sannomiya shopping arcade – which also includes one of Western Japan's biggest centers for anime and manga goods. Then, take a break to explore the city's iconic waterfront with us after a bit of shopping. In the evening, we'll gather to walk under the thousands of lights in Kobe's holiday light display (and memorial to victims of the 1995 earthquake here), the Kobe Luminarie! Sip Cocoa, snap pictures, and listen to the carillon bells as we experience the majesty of one of the most acclaimed festivals PacSet features.
Day 8: Castle Crashing
We begin our day with a little history in the city of Osaka as we cross moats and park lands to reach the foot of Osaka Castle. After checking out the castle, we'll venture to Shinsaibashi and Namba, the wild cultural center of Osaka that is home to countless game centers, neon light displays, and some of the best local cuisine that Japan has to offer. After getting back to Kobe, we'll visit the waterfront and the memorials there before dinnertime. After that, you have a choice: turn in early, or take another stroll through the Luminarie!
Day 9: The Kyoto Experience
If you're looking to get an up-close and personal peek into Japan's past, there's no better place to do it than Kyoto! We'll spend the whole day here, visiting the city's scenic Kiyomizu Temple before going across town to see the shogunate's old digs, Nijo Castle. After walking along the nightingale flooring in the castle, we'll take a trip to the Golden Pavilion of Kinkakuji. On our way home, we'll have a pit stop at Kyoto's massive Kyoto Station Complex to have dinner and see the annual holiday lights display in the station center.
Day 10: The Onsen Awaits You!
All this traveling can make one tired, so we'll begin this day with a trip up the mountainside to Kansai's most legendary hot spring resort, Arima Onsen. That afternoon, we'll hang out on the outskirts of Kobe and take a ropeway car over a waterfall to the scenic Kobe Nunobiki Herb Garden, where you'll be treated to one of the finest views of the bay the area has to offer. Explore the gardens, or just relax and take it in – the choice is yours! In the evening, your guides will be arranging a trip to a local spot for some of the city's famous steak, so if your wallet allows, join the party!
Day 11: Freedom!
Today is a free day! Go check out the Luminarie again, check out Himeji Castle or Nara, or just relax on the balcony of your hotel room – it's up to you!
Day 12: Departure
It's off to the airport and back to the USA to tell your friends all about your adventures!

Limbo: Leo Espinosa's opening
A view inside through Leo's vinyl critters which has sprouted legs!
There was an appreciative crowd which included a few other artists, illustrators and designers. I even had the pleasure to chat with Leo's sister who told me of the long curly hair he sported in his wild carefree youth! The food was excellent and well appreciated. I am glad that someone whose artistic touch is so assured and captivating has found a collaborative opportunity at NEGLAA to explore, through his unique graphic language, what it feels like to straddle continents and cultures. Perhaps, all good artists straddle the line and live in a kind of Limbo where the personal is public and where the mundane experiences of life can signify and shed light on larger mysteries.

Sounds like the rubber mount has broken. It should be held up to the under side of the body by one nut. You can find them in junk yards and possibly the dealer.ts stores will not have them.
Posted 23 April 2005 - 08:06 PM
i put the linkage above the bracket you were talking about that is the one with the rubber on the bottom right and it works the nut is tight and i moved the bracket forword but i can still knock it lose when i put it in reverse and my 3rd gear is really hard to hit when iam hauling #@*. could this be syncros.

Unexpected pregnancy, no support from ex

I'm so sorry your ex is being such a jerk. Pressuring you and resorting to verbal and emotional abuse to get you to end a life just to suit his convenience is truly awful, and I'm so glad you have supportive family and friends.
First off, in no way is this 'selfish,' 'stupid,' or any other of the crazy things he may have told you. On reality, he should be manning up and taking responsiblity for this child. He chose to have unprotected sex and it's not his right or decision to end this baby's life just because he doesn't feel like being involved in raising him or her! You are being strong and you are this baby's only protector. This isn't the way it should be, but at least it sounds like you have loving people around you.
My advice would be to surround yourself with the positive, loving people in your life, and just be done with your ex. If he comes around and wants to be part of the pregnancy, fine. Otherwise, just don't even talk to him and let his poisonous talk into your life. Join a due date club on this site, let yourself get excited about this little one. You have 8 months to contemplate adoption, so don't feel like you need to rush to make a decision. Enjoy this pregnancy and these first weeks growing your little person! This is absolutely not about your ex, his needs, or his wants. It's about you and your baby and really that's all right now.
Congratulations, and please keep us posted! There's a great support network here!
Brooke, happy mama to one girl (9), and four boys (7, 5, 3, and 2) and a surprise post-vasectomy miracle baby born February 7.

Seahawks lose another veteran player as Jordan Babineaux exits
Safety Jordan Babineaux leaves for Tennessee, where he'll sign a one-year contract.
Seattle Times staff reporter
RENTON — The Seahawks lost another of their longest-tenured players as safety Jordan Babineaux left for Tennessee, where he'll sign a one-year contract.
That's not surprising, given the exodus of Seahawk veterans.
Seattle did bring back one veteran, though, agreeing to re-sign Raheem Brock to a one-year contract. Brock, 33, was signed by Seattle eight days before the 2010 season started, and he finished the season with a career-high nine sacks. That ranked No. 2 on the team.
The Seahawks had 22 players entering unrestricted free agency this year, and Brock is the seventh one the team re-signed. Babineaux is the fifth of the team's free agents to sign elsewhere.
Babineaux, 28, attended Southern Arkansas and made the Seahawks as an undrafted rookie in 2004. He became the team's nickel back in 2005 and earned himself a reputation and a nickname: "Big Play Babs."
He intercepted a pass from Drew Bledsoe in the final minute of Seattle's comeback victory over Dallas in October 2005. The next season, he preserved Seattle's playoff victory over the Cowboys, tackling quarterback Tony Romo from behind after Romo had bobbled the snap on a potential game-winning field-goal attempt.
Babineaux was released by Seattle at final training-camp cuts last year, but re-signed before the first game last season.

Sometimes brain power also permits you find interesting thoughts. Tutor and I highly recommend
infantile people to look into brain power. Intelleral Brain Booster How did they invent something like
brain power? Plainly, there are quite a few different variations on brain power.
It is a long standing tradition. I keep banging on regarding brain power. I know this bugs you as well.
There it was, big as life. Personally, the exit lamp is on. Improbably, wing it. Not everyone has that type
of support system for brain power.
If you are new to how to gain brain power you may find that is more difficult. It can take some time to
actively engage in how to gain brain power. In that way, your how to gain brain power becomes the dull

Skip to comments.Cory Booker: Raising taxes on the rich is about patriotism, not class warfare.
Posted on 09/05/2012 11:53:59 AM PDT by L.A.Justice
CHARLOTTE, N.C.Newark, N.J., Mayor Cory Booker delivered a passionate defense of Democratic efforts to raise taxes on the wealthiest Americans, insisting it's about love of country.
"Being asked to pay your fair share isn't class warfare. It's patriotism," Booker said, disputing an attack line often mentioned by Mitt Romney and his GOP allies.
Everyone, Booker argued, must pay their "fair share" at a time when the country is facing the enormous burden of paying down debts incurred by two wars.
(Excerpt) Read more at news.yahoo.com ...
Buying war bonds during World War Two...I would say that is patriotic...But, paying higher taxes now?
Wars responsible for debts? How about Obama stimulus?
Looks like Cory is solidly back on the Dem plantation now. No more celebrating wealth for him.
If its all about patriotism, you can start by making the 50% who pay NOTHING get in the game...its patriotic afterall.
Besides which the jackasses don't seem to realize that even if you take it all, it won't make a drop in the bucket of national indebtedness.
I think folks need to buy a biannual license to vote for a 'rat. Either true cost or $20,000, whichever is more.
I was surprised he was allowed to speak. After his comments on now we should not attack private equity firms, i thought he would be shunned by Democrats.
It's not patriotism but envy, jealousy, bitterness, covetousness and theft.
So has anyone informed him of all of the patriots that are now leaving France?
The fat dixie chick said that patriotism is overrated anyway.
Looks like Cory is solidly back on the Dem plantation now.
Most likely his "patriotic tax message" was his penance for leaving the plantation.
I think Julian Castro tipped the lefts hand last night.
Instead of debating "fairness", the left is relabeling the issue and will now be calling it: Shared Prosperity
The top 1% earn 20% of the nation's income. They should pay 20% of the income taxes, but they pay more than twice that amount. I'd say they are paying more than TWICE their "fair share," in spite of what this idiot mayor is spewing.
Also, didn't Mark "Facebook" Zuckerberg give the Newark school system $100 million a few years ago? Talk about money down the rat hole.
All depends on who decides what "fair" is.
The argument we need to make is that there are consequences to over-taxing our nation's employers and investors-to everyone, not just the "rich".
The poor and the middle classes cannot escape the boomerang effect. The "rich" whether we like it or not, are the ones who invest, put money at risk, and own businesses. All of these activities employ people. To punish those who employ with tax policy is to punish also those who have less, and those who aspire to have more.
The following rich liberals have all used legal tax shelters to legally lower their taxes (wordpress ^ | September 3, 2012 | Dan from Squirrel Hill)
Debbie Wasserman Schultz
The Weekly Standard reports:
Disclosure forms reveal that Democratic National Committee chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz, a member of Congress from Florida, previously held funds with investments in Swiss banks, foreign drug companies, and the state bank of India. This revelation comes mere days after the Democratic chair attacked presumptive Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney for holding money in Swiss bank accounts in the past.
Nancy Pelosi
The Daily Caller reports:
According to Pelosis 2011 financial disclosure statement, the Democratic House Minority Leader received between $1 million and $5 million in partnership income from Matthews International Capital Management LLC, a group that emphasizes that it has a A Singular Focus on Investing in Asia.A quick trip to the company website reveals a featured post extolling the virtues of outsourcing.
Valerie Jarrett
fireandreamitchell.com reports:
Top Obama adviser and BFF Valerie Jarrett has a line of credit from a Bermuda insurance company valued between $100,000 and a quarter of a million dollars.
Barack Obama
Fox News reports:
President Obama and his wife, Michele, gave a total of $48,000 in tax-free gifts to their daughters, according to tax records made public on Friday.The president and his wife separately gave each daughter a $12,000 gift under a section of the federal tax code that exempts such donations from federal taxes.There is nothing illegal about the presidents taking advantage of this tax shelter, but it does raise eyebrows given that he has lamented the myriad tax exemptions used by the wealthymillionaires and billionaires like himselfto pay less in taxes.
Noam Chomsky
The Hoover Institution reports:
One of the most persistent themes in Noam Chomskys work has been class warfare. He has frequently lashed out against the massive use of tax havens to shift the burden to the general population and away from the rich and criticized the concentration of wealth in trusts by the wealthiest 1 percent. The American tax code is rigged with complicated devices for ensuring that the poorlike 80 percent of the populationpay off the rich.
But trusts cant be all bad. After all, Chomsky, with a net worth north of $2,000,000, decided to create one for himself. A few years back he went to Bostons venerable white-shoe law firm, Palmer and Dodge, and, with the help of a tax attorney specializing in income-tax planning, set up an irrevocable trust to protect his assets from Uncle Sam. He named his tax attorney (every socialist radical needs one!) and a daughter as trustees. To the Diane Chomsky Irrevocable Trust (named for another daughter) he has assigned the copyright of several of his books, including multiple international editions.
Chomsky favors the estate tax and massive income redistributionjust not the redistribution of his income. No reason to let radical politics get in the way of sound estate planning.
When I challenged Chomsky about his trust, he suddenly started to sound very bourgeois: I dont apologize for putting aside money for my children and grandchildren, he wrote in one e-mail. Chomsky offered no explanation for why he condemns others who are equally proud of their provision for their children and who try to protect their assets from Uncle Sam.
John Kerry
The Boston Globe reports:
Documents obtained by the Globe detail John Kerrys 1983 investment of between $25,000 and $30,000 in offshore companies registered in the Cayman Islands. The document below, signed by Kerry, shows his pledge to purchase 2,470 shares of Peabody Commodities Trading Corp. through Sytel Traders, registered in the Caymans.
Barney Frank
National Review reports:
When Massachusetts cut its top tax rate to 5.3 percent in 2001, it let guilty liberals pay the old 5.85 percent rate if they wished Pro-tax U.S. Rep. Barney Frank (D., Mass.) spurned the higher rate. No, I wont pay some $800 extra, Frank told Boston radio host Howie Carr in April 2003.
Michael Moore
ihatethemedia.com reports:
Moores most recent effort, Capitalism: A Love Story, took aim at businesses that used shelters to avoid paying taxes and took government bailouts during the market crash.
The thing is, Moore used similar tactics, taking advantage of a Michigan tax break to fund the making of his filmwhich raked in millions, by the way. Michigan taxpayersalready hit hard with the collapsing auto industrywere left holding the funny money bag for that one.
Bill Clinton
USA Today reports:
Former president Bill Clinton once made public a tax return on which he deducted $2 apiece for donated underwear.
So many unpatriotic RATS. So little media exposure. fireandreamitchell.com reports:
............but it's the conservatives who are crazy.
Democrats keep harping about the wealthy paying more taxes, but it's a hard sell when there is nothing to be gained. The out of control spending will continue, the fraud and abuse of entitlements and cushy deals for the connected will continue.
Clean up the mess, clean up the budget first.
Why should anybody pay 1 more dime for the mess in Washington?

Belfast mum Nicky Jamison models out a whole new career at age of 32
She is embarking on a modelling career at the grand old age of 32.
Meet Nicky Jamison, a single mother-of-two from east Belfast, who is a finalist in this year's Face of Northern Ireland competition after she "hit the reset button" and decided to change her life after a turbulent time.
Nicky, a singer with wedding band Kayenne, is a proud mum to Ryan (11) and Joshua (9).
And she is now enjoying a new career with RoleModels NI after she stepped in to do a last-minute photoshoot. The Sydenham woman told the Belfast Telegraph that 2014 was consumed by the trauma of losing her job as a dental nurse, her marriage breaking down after 10 years and fearing she might die.
"Last year I had a cancer scare," she said.
"I had a growth in my pancreas and I have ended up with diabetes.
"Everything happened at once. I wasn't well, my marriage ran into difficulties and I lost my job as a dental nurse."
Nicky knew her marriage was over, so is now embracing life on her own, which has seen her signed to a modelling agency and reach the final of the Face of Northern Ireland competition.
"My husband and I knew things weren't working for us and now we are separated after 10 years," she said.
"We are happy. We are good friends now.
"I had never thought about myself before and then I did a photoshoot as a favour five months ago after someone had dropped out and the offers started coming in.
"I am maybe doing three or four shoots a week now."
Nicky has had lots of support from friends and her parents, Sharon and Colin Jamison, who are professional foster carers recently recognised with an award from Barnardo's for 25 years of service. Nicky has one natural sister, Samantha, and 27 foster siblings. Her sons are also supportive of their mum's endeavours, even if they sometimes question why she wears such dramatic make-up.
"It has all been a bit of a whirlwind," she said.
"The boys are funny. When I come home from a shoot the oldest thinks my make-up is ridiculous, but they are really supportive.
"They take me down a peg or two but are proud I am a model and a singer.
"I do fashion, beach shoots, commercial, conceptual, and I even did a 'trash the dress' photoshoot.
"My wedding dress was covered with paint and feathers."
The chosen charities for this year's Face of Northern Ireland are Headway, which helps people with brain injury, and Down's and Proud, which supports children and parents living with Down's syndrome.
A fundraiser is coming up at the Hudson Bar in Belfast on May 28 ahead of the Face of Northern Ireland final on June 21 at the Armagh City Hotel.
"The Hudson night will be brilliant," Nicky said.
"We are supporting two fantastic charities.
"There will be an auction on the night with prizes such as a photoshoot, horseriding lessons, make-up and vocal coaching." Life is looking good for this model mum from east Belfast and she is urging other women who have perhaps found themselves in similar positions to do the same and follow their dreams.
Nicky is going to continue singing and modelling and will also be returning to education.
"I've hit the reset button," she said.
