Bike rebuild: a 1984/2014 Trek 610/105
In the summer of 2007, not long after I moved to Denver, I bought a used Trek 610 road bike off of Craigslist. A little research showed it was a 1984 model, with a frame of Reynolds 531 steel and a nice set of Shimano 600 (Ultegra) components.
It was already 23 years old and it was well loved. The finish was scratched all over, but it was solid and straight and a really good bike.
I rode it in this nearly stock condition for about a year. Then I bought a Brooks B17 saddle, a taller seatpost, nicer handlebars, and a new stem. I also installed a set of fenders. The result was a nice comfortable riding position and clean clothes, at the cost of some weight and speed. I kept riding the bike like that for several years, and I loved it.
Eventually though the frustrating Maillard Helicomatic hub1 started to give out. There was a huge amount of play in the hub, and the bike was hard to shift. And since parts and tools to work on those old hubs are hard to come by I decided to buy new wheels instead. I ordered a set of heavy but lovely hand-built wheels from Thill wheels. It was relatively new 8 speed technology but aesthetically they matched the rest of the bike almost perfectly.
But things went bad on the Fourth of July. I was on a long 40 mile ride from my house out to the Aurora reservoir, on unfamiliar trails. I got to a section of trail that was under a few inches of water. I thought it was just a short section, and that I could just ride through it slowly with my fenders. It was actually well underwater, about 6 inches deep, and had a sandy bottom. I couldn't keep going, and I had a slow motion fall into the water as I failed to unclip from my pedals.
I thought I was just wet and muddy, but the fall bent my derailer hanger and I didn't notice. The bike kept going just fine and I kept riding. But on a hard uphill climb on a busy road 10 miles from home suddenly everything went very wrong. I was in the lowest gear, off the saddle, pedalling hard. I heard a terrible noise and felt something very very wrong happen in the back of the bike.
Between a bent derailer hanger, a hard climb, and a fairly flexible frame the rear derailer had made best friends with half the spokes on the right side of my rear wheel. The derailer itself was destroyed. The rear wheel was unrideable. I had to phone a friend and get a ride home on a holiday afternoon.
After that I let the bike sit. I thought about trying to rebuild the rear wheel, then I thought about buying a new wheel. But what I actually did was ride my old Schwinn single speed for months instead. Then I bought the Raleigh Tamland in September.
But I love my old Trek too much to let it sit dead forever.
Instead I ordered a complete set of 11-speed Shimano 105 components and compatible wheels and rebuilt the bike from the frame up. The parts and tools I needed arrived over three days, and I spent much of last Saturday building the bike. I took my time and walked through the whole process carefully, using the Shimano dealer manuals for reference. The brakes didn't work with the frame—recessed nuts and not enough reach—but I expected that. I wouldn't have bought them if it wasn't a package deal, and I have a nice set of Tektro long-reach brakes I reused instead.
But other than that I'm kind of amazed how I was able to install a set of 2014 parts on a steel frame from 1984. 30 years of bike development and changes, but the basics are still the same.
The build took me about 5 hours, and after a run and lunch I managed to get in one test ride on Saturday afternoon before the sun set. The bike feels amazing. It's not a magic night and day change from the old bike, but everything is just slightly better. I feel like an old friend is back. The look is a little modern on the old frame, but since I bought silver components it still looks good.
The only issue I have, which was apparent on the faster sections of my ride, is getting the cable tension right for the front derailer. The kit didn't come with barrel adjusters, probably because it assumed the bike would have them on the downtube stops or that whoever was building the bike would know what to do. I didn't think about it, and so I didn't have one ready. I tried moving the downtube clamp I was using to increase cable tension but all I managed to do was crease the downtube when I overtightened it. I think it'll be OK, but I feel bad about that.
And now winter is moving in, so I may not get much time to ride it. But I'm still happy I spent the time to rebuild.

In the words of Sheldon Brown: "The Helicomatic was a nice idea on paper, but poorly executed. These hubs are losers." ↩

Hi, I'm Steve Block. I'm an Iowan, but have lived in Denver since 2007.
I write, take pictures, run, and ride my bike when I can. Most of my writing is in a journal, though the best ideas find their way here. My photography is a long ongoing hobby, and I have photographs on 500px and Flickr along with a smaller photo portfolio at ev-15. I started running last November, where I have progessed to regular 10k distances. For 2014 I set some nice goals for both running and cycling, and plan to issue regular progress updates. I brew beer pretty regularly too, and started developing my own recipes last fall.
I'm reliving the past, in a way, over at retro focus.
My day to day life is best found on twitter and the pictures on tagisu.
This site is has a collection of essays, short notes, quotes, and photos, in no particular order. It trends towards longer articles, posted about twice a month.

I have been working at Lonza full-timePros
Very relaxed environment, 401k matching, generous vacation policy. You'll find many employees who have been with the company for 10+ years. There's even a yearly bonus program based on pre-determined (and publicized) metrics.Cons
Pretty disorganized, not very transparent, paperwork is required even for the most mundane tasks, frequent miscommunication among different departments. Additionally, it seems like every year there's some company initiative that seems to fall by the way side.
And I almost forgot, they have a TERRIBLE weather policy. The site just about never closes (literally like 2 times in the last 5 years) so if an employee can't make it in, they have to waste a vacation day.RecommendsNo opinion of CEO

Thank you for your feedback and hopefully you will be pleased with my progress as time goes by. As for the "silly cartoonish poses" I consider my personality one of my strongest strengths in this industry which takes itself so seriously. I will continue to be my bubbly, original self.

Denial: Six months ago, Rep. Nancy Pelosi promised Democrats would "stand tall" for ObamaCare. But as November elections near, more Democrats want to pretend ObamaCare never happened. And for good reason.
Georgia's Senate candidate, Michelle Nunn, refuses to say whether she would have voted for ObamaCare had she been in Congress in 2010. Ditto Kentucky's Alison Lundergan Grimes and Nebraska House candidate Pete Festersen.
Montana's Sen. John Walsh, who is trying to keep the seat he was appointed to in February, wants everyone to know that he was far, far away from Washington when ObamaCare votes were cast, "preparing soldiers and airman to deploy to Iraq and Afghanistan."
Even Pelosi is trying to downplay ObamaCare for the midterms, saying in an interview over the weekend that "we're not running on or from the Affordable Care Act."
Really? For years, Democrats promised that the public would eventually fall in love with ObamaCare once they realized all its wonderful benefits.
A month ago, President Obama said debate about the law was over because it was such a huge success — once 8 million people allegedly signed up for coverage.
As recently as this spring, Pelosi was bragging that ObamaCare will be a "winner" for Democrats, that Democrats "embrace" and are "very proud" of it, that "we couldn't be more thrilled."
Well, perhaps someone showed Pelosi recent polls.
The latest AP poll shows support for ObamaCare at a pathetic 28% — which is near the all-time low for this poll. And just 17% say they "strongly support" the law, also near the poll's all-time low.
Meanwhile, 32% say they "strongly oppose" the law, which is higher than the share who said that when the ObamaCare exchanges first opened last October.
The Kaiser Family Foundation's health tracking poll shows the same thing, with overall opposition running near all-time highs.
Worse for Democrats, it appears voters in states with competitive Senate races and districts with tight House races are even more distraught over the law.
A Politico poll of these voters found that nearly half favor repealing ObamaCare, and 60% say that, despite Obama's words to the contrary, "the debate over the law is not over." The poll also found that nearly 90% say the law will be important in determining their vote.
If that weren't enough, ObamaCare continues to flummox the Democrats' union base.
Across the country, unions and employers are battling over who is going to pay all the added costs imposed by the law that Pelosi insists be called by its official title: the Affordable Care Act.
Lying With Statistics: In April, we doubted that the surprisingly high ObamaCare enrollment numbers could be trusted. Turns out, we were right to be skeptical. The White House had been vastly inflating the figures all along.This week, Health and Human Services Secretary Sylvia Burwell admitted that ...
Media Bias: What does it take for reporters to pursue a scandal story these days? Apparently, more than video proof of lying and obfuscation by top officials to get a massive entitlement enacted. But don't call them partisan.Few political scandals are as tailor-made for television as the one ...
Crony Capitalism: The New York Times this week reports that ObamaCare has made strange bedfellows between the insurance industry and the federal government. Who could have imagined that?Just before the 2012 elections, we wrote in this space that, should President Obama get re-elected, repealing ...
Grubergate: The lies are getting pretty thick these days. The president claims that he never misled anyone about ObamaCare and that Jonathan Gruber was just "some adviser." In fact, Gruber was a key player in the deception.When Fox News' Ed Henry asked Obama on Sunday if he'd misled the American ...
Transparency: ObamaCare architect Jonathan Gruber has been taking plenty of flak this week after videos surfaced of him saying lawmakers deliberately misled "stupid" Americans to get it passed. But why is this a surprise to anyone?In a tape of a 2013 conference that made the rounds this week, MIT ...

Barcelona have reported that injured striker Neymar is making a
good progress as he begins his recovery after suffering a fractured
vertebra.The 22-year-old picked up the injury during Brazil's World Cup
quarter-final victory over Colombia last week, ending his participation
in the event.
The forward has returned home to rest and recuperate, and it was here that he was examined by Barcelona doctors.
"FC Barcelona's Medical Services visited Neymar Jr at the player's
home in Brazil this week. The Club's Medical Services confirmed the
CBF's diagnosis that Neymar had fractured the L3 vertebrae in his back,"
the Catalan outfit said in a statement.
"The CBF and Barça's Medical Services are in agreement on the type of treatment the player will undergo in his recovery process.
"The player is recovering well and he'll continue his recovery in Barcelona starting on August 5."

I made this tonight based on the ingredients of Roasted Asparagus With Garlic and Fresh Thyme because it sounded good and the directions of Balsamic Roasted Asparagus because it doesn't take long and the asparagus stays crisp. I'm sure I'll do lots of tweaking, but my family liked it as is. The asparagus turned out to be a nice side dish for leftover turkey and mashed potatoes.

A woman, age 46, was critically injured after she was struck by a hit-and-run driver on Nov. 5 in Brooklyn. A photo of the car that reportedly was involved in the accident has been released by police.
Crash in New York injures 2
According to a report, an auto-pedestrian accident in Rochester on Oct. 19 injured two men. Rochester police believe that a drunken driver caused the crash. The police stated that the accident occurred at about 2 a.m. when a 21-year-old Fairport woman driving eastbound on Park Avenue apparently lost control of her vehicle and struck a pair of men who were walking eastbound on a sidewalk. The pedestrians, who were both 23-years-old, were not seriously injured in the accident.
New York cab driver strikes storefront and pedestrian
Two individuals were injured in an incident in Manhattan on Oct. 6 when a taxi cab struck a pedestrian before crashing into two commercial spaces in an Upper East Side building. The accident was still under investigation, and police are not yet saying what caused the cab driver to leave the road.
Cyclist crash kills pedestrian, wife of CBS VP in New York
A crash in Central Park on Sept. 18 killed a 58-year-old woman and wife of CBS Television Stations' senior vice president. The pedestrian died after suffering severe head injuries from being hit by a bicyclist in New York City.
Woman critically injured following New York collision
On Sept. 2, a pedestrian suffered critical injuries in a Cobble Hill accident involving two vehicles, reportedly. According to police, the accident transpired at approximately 12:40 p.m. That is when one of the vehicles attempted to turn right from Court Street onto Atlantic Avenue and collided with a flatbed truck that was also attempting to turn right. Consequently, the driver of the first vehicle lost control and careened onto the northwest sidewalk of the intersection, striking a 29-year-old woman, officials said.
Woman killed in Manhattan pedestrian accident
On a Friday afternoon last month, a 58-year-old woman was struck and killed by a taxi while attempting to cross the street at 79th and Madison in Manhattan.
Man strikes, kills friend with vehicle in New York
A man and his female friend were reportedly riding along in his SUV -- a Jeep Liberty produced back in 2006 -- when she asked him to pull the car over so that she could get out. She thought that he was intoxicated, and she was concerned about riding with him in that state. She then began to walk down the side of the road instead.
New York City pedestrian killed on city street
Despite New York City Mayor de Blasio's Vision Zero program, which was implemented to prevent traffic fatalities, the streets recently claimed another victim only two blocks from the site where a 9-year-old boy lost his life in January. His death was the impetus for the mayor's initiative, but for one 61-year-old retired commercial artist, it wasn't enough.
New York mayor signs bills to reduce pedestrian accidents
New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio has implemented one phase of his Vision Zero initiative by signing legislation designed to curb pedestrian fatalities. The location of the signing was symbolic -- the mayor chose to sign the bills outside of P.S. 152 in the borough of Queens' Woodside neighborhood.
Another fatal pedestrian accident in New York
Recently, the mayor of New York City launched an initiative called "Vision Zero" in order to reduce pedestrian and traffic deaths. Unfortunately, yet another fatal pedestrian accident occurred on June 9. According to reports, two women were walking on a sidewalk along Hylan Boulevard when a 2005 Honda Accord left the roadway and struck them.

rory olcayto's Comments
Comment on: AJ Kiosks named as one of 13 key future projects for London
True Dat. My bad. (I wrote the brief!)
Comment on: Amanda Levete: the social networker
The article is researched the AJ news desk - there is no single author. I'm sorry you think the piece is nasty Sutherland. Amuch of the material within it is drawn from information in the public domain and any criticisms have been balanced with praise. It's fairly typical of a profile format.
Comment on: Last chance to enter: How would Scottish independence impact architects?
Thank you Walter, for your very thoughtful commentary.
Comment on: You asked for it. We built it. The AJ is now on iPad
Ian: no - not as yet. Our website has been optimised for your mobile however. And our own research has shown most architects use Apple rather than windows or android tablets.
Comment on: Skyline campaign: Prospects and views
Thank you for your comments Robert. All of our campaigns – Women in Architecture, More Homes Better Homes and now Skyline – argue in favour of raising standards, whether in terms of a fair working environment, a better quality of housing provision, or a more thoughtful approach to building tall. On the whole, I believe most architects, whether in the AJ100 or not, share these aspirations and while there is always more any business can do to improve – and that includes AJ too – it is also reasonable to celebrate success where it occurs, hence our passion for the AJ100 Awards. In any case, a strong critical culture is good for business - more often than not it inspires innovation. As for your comments regarding height – it's a good one: ultimately it's all relative – apparently the first use of the term skyscraper was applied to steel framed buildings just 10 stories high. We've gone with Peter Murray's definition however, and the research NLA published for its London's Growing Up! Exhibition. about planned tall buildings for the capital.
Comment on: Glasgow academics weigh in on Red Road flats demolition
Matt, thank you for your in-depth take on all things Red Road. Fascinating.
Comment on: Venice Biennale spat points to a deeper rift in architectural culture
not sure i follow your logic Urbanist. could you explain? cheers, rory
Comment on: Join the AJ for breakfast at O'Donnell + Tuomey's student centre at the LSE

Comment on: Time for Serpentine Pavilion to back Brits
Thomas, that was the point of the pavilion, as I said in my editorial, above. But the rule has been broken - H&dM built the pavilion in 2012 even though they had already built in England (Tate, Laban) so....time to change the rules! Or just scrap it. That said, the Radic scheme has a lovely neo-Neolithic aesthetic!
Comment on: Holl's Glasgow Art School Building: First reaction
Ahh John, you are right. He was living in suffolk when he was arrested under suspicion of being a spy. change has been made. Still the point stands!

11 Hot Healthcare Buzzwords for 2011
Look for modifications to the Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems survey that ask even more detailed questions about length of wait times, and whether patients feel their care was well explained. Also anticipate better utilization of volunteers (think Walmart greeters) to ask if waiting patients would like something to read or drink, and improved access to entertainment or the web (movies, TV and internet access) to ease patients' anxiety while they are in a healthcare setting.
7. Alignment. This word means many things to many people, but in this context we're talking about standardization of equipment, procedures and supply purchases, programs, and policies.
Alignment can be considered a fighting word, because hospital systems with multiple facilities and autonomous programs that cater to individual physician or administrator preferences may balk at the imposition of limits. But systems that are steering full steam toward these goals believe that they will be the ones to succeed.
8. Respectful Crisis Management. Sometimes, providers make very big mistakes. But how healthcare systems respond to these unfortunate events can determine whether the next mistake is prevented, or whether it embitters staff, family, the public and the community in a toxic cloud of mistrust and blame.
This term actually represents a growing area of scientific research to find the best management strategies that provide productive responses to a critical healthcare error. Responses that unify the team to acknowledge and mitigate harm and prevent a similar mistake from occurring are the ones to adopt. No one benefits if those who made the mistake are so afraid, they won't dare explain what factors contributed to their making it.

The NEJM article that mentions "creative destruction" is *not* Nov 11th - but rather Dec 30th. Unfortunately, like most who are ignorant of the basics of continual and breakthrough improvement (in quality, safety, costs - whatever...), the authors suffer from the delusion that setting (implicit) goals and redefining incentives will somehow empower *and* enable organizations to transform themselves. Alas,were that thru...

She has kind of a rounder belly, but her legs and arms aren't humongous or anything, she's just kinda soft, meaning she has a lot more fat than muscle and bone percentage wise. That is why she looks chubby, but she isn't actually big. I used to be a bit soft until i joined girl's swim team in junior high. But I know in Asian culture, exercise isn't exactly very important, grades are usually number one in priorities. That's why it would be hard to look like we have no fat unless we were skinny …

Historical Traveler Reviews Americas Best Value Inn & Suites-Bryce Valley Tropic
We stayed one night at Bryce Valley Inn in July 2005. The hotel was OK and the room were very clean and reasonably priced. It is located 20 minutes drive from the Bryce canyon entrance. Beautiful scenary. We would come back here.
Creepy vibe
This place is an okay choice if you want a moderately priced place to stay close to Bryce Canyon. However, the staff is terribly unprofessional (a girl who continued to talk on the phone to her boyfriend while she was supposed to be helping me), the place is kind of sketchy (our door would not close or lock), and it's located in front of a trailer park. The restaurant serves decent food but we had trouble getting any service since they seemed overwhelmed by the bus tour that had stopped there. The value for what you get is not all that great, in my opinion, but I suppose you could do worse.
Basic but cute!
Unless you are staying in the Park itself, there is really nothing great by way of accommodations anywhere nearby. You are going to have to settle for "good enough." The town of Tropic is really not much of a town. Just a bunch of cheap motels along the roadside, with three "restaurants" to choose from. But this place is really quite decent. The cabins don't look like much from the outside - look like something that got towed there on a trailer. But inside, they are all knotty pine, with a nice log framed bed, very clean and comfortable, with a lot more charm than you might expect. Considering we only slept there, and spent all the rest of the time hiking in Bryce, it was just fine. Keep in mind you are a 15 minute drive from the park.
Good jumping-off point
A basic but pleasant hotel with good service; prepare to be up with the hordes at the crack of dawn, though, because the walls are paper-thin.
Satisfactory accommodation
This hotel is rather basic, but there are no problems with this place. The "town" of Tropic has rather basic amenities, 1 store, 1 restaurant, 1 gas station open out of season, so don't expect much and maybe go prepared. A short drive (15 minutes) to Bryce canyon, and there all issues are forgotten though.
Friendly and clean
Very Good. Having just previously looked at the Bryce Pioneer Lodge and realising that I would prefer to sleep in my garden shed we turned up at the Bryce Valley Inn.
The young lady in reception was very friendly and for just $10 more than the Pioneer village you had vastly superior accommodation here, equally as good as any of the national chains of Motels and certainly cleaner than some of them.
Within easy reach of Bryce Canyon National Park and breakfast in the next door Hungry Coyote Restaurant is a must with the very friendly happy staff.
Just okay
The accommodations were slightly below average. While our room was clean and quiet, there was no TV remote control, no long distance calls allowed from the room (without the purchase of a phone card from the front desk, which did not work once we purchased it), no hair dryer and the water took a long time to warm up. The rooms are VERY basic, but the staff was pleasant. Yolanda did not charge us for the first night when our flight was delayed when landing in Vegas and we couldn't make the long drive that night. The Hungry Coyote restaurant was okay, nothing special, but the waitress Denise was very friendly and helpful! I don't think I would stay at Bryce Valley Inn again - I might try Ruby's next time.
Suited our needs
We stayed two nights at Bryce Valley Inn in May 2004. Tropic is every inch a country/cowboy town. The hotel was OK and the rooms were very reasonably priced. It is situated in Tropic which is about 10 minutes from the bus terminal to catch into the park or 20 minutes from the park gates. Dinner at Doug's Place next door is a must. The meal we had was delicious with plenty of extras included in the price and excellent service.
This motel is nestled in the quiet hills of Bryce Valley. It is conveniently located on the scenic byway. There is a neat backdoors hike within walking distance. The staff was more than friendly. I would reccomend it to anyone.
An oasis
Bryce Canyon is out in the middle of nowhere in the southern Utah canyon country. The Bryce Valley Inn is located in Tropic, a village of 460 people. As I traveled through Zion National Park to get here from Las Vegas, you notice that there are not too many places that look very accomodating. The Valley Inn has enough rooms to give it the critical mass needed to be a full time job for the owner and staff. The room was clean and motel was very quiet. Drive out a few miles to lose the last street light and you can see the Milky Way on a clear night. There are 2 restaurants within walking distance, general store, bank, gas station, gift shop, etc. Close to local recreation (ATV, horse back and airplane rides within 10 miles). Beautiful scenery. I would come back here.

Travel Blogs from Tropic
Only 4 miles today
We are staying in the town of Tropic, just outside Bryce Canyon. The townspeople chose the name as they felt their climate was considerably superior to that of the towns around them. This is a somewhat bold claim as all seem to have been similarly infernally hot!
The day started at Clarke's restaurant. That would be the same …
Six Miles and a Swim
Today was our first taste of the National Parks of Utah and we made the trip down Scenic Byway 12 to make our way to Bryce Canyon. The first 40 miles gave us a sense of the scale of the place driving through Dixie National Forest and the Boulder Mountain Range. It is big. It is impressive and rugged. We stopped a couple of times to take in the …
Page and Tropic, Utah - Week 6
After the Grand Canyon we headed further north to Page just on the border of Arizona and Southern Utah. The main attraction here was Lake Powell that was formed from damming the Colorado River. We once again found ourselves super jealous that we didn't have a boat or jet ski to explore the lake but settled for a swim as it was about 105!
Another perfect Day
Gegen 8:20 ging es los und nach ereignisloser Fahrt (au�er, dass Thomas sich d�mlich beim Tanken anstellte) erreichten wir gegen 13:00 den Bryce Canyon, nach dem Yellowstone das zweite National-Park-Highlight.

Madonna Upsets Denver Concert-goers with Gunplay On Stage - Memories of Aurora
2012 10 22
Madonna upset concertgoers at her gig in Denver on Thursday night October 18 as she used fake guns during the show. The "Girl Gone Wild" singer fired fake shots in her opening number "Gang Bang", bringing back the memory of Aurora mass shooting during "The Dark Knight Rises" screening to some local people.
Local NBC affiliate 9News said it received several calls from concertgoers who were offended by the act. One concertgoer named Aaron Fransua told The Associated Press, "Were dancing, and all of a sudden people started realizing what the song was. We all just stood there. Everybody who was around me all had shock on their face. I heard a lot of wows."
Peter Burns, a local radio sports personality, testified, "You could see people kinda looking at each other." He went on recalling, "I heard the word Colorado, you know, Aurora, shooting. You could hear people talking about it, and it was little bit unsettling. I saw two or three people get up and grab their stuff and actually leave their seats."
Madonnas publicist Liz Rosenberg later defended the use of prop weapons, saying removing guns from "Gang Bang" would be "like taking out the third act of Hamlet." She insisted, "Madonna does not make things pretty and tie them up with a bow."

Currency has 'found its equilibrium'

Join the NASDAQ Community today and get free, instant access to portfolios, stock ratings, real-time alerts, and more!
We reaffirmed our long-term Neutral recommendation on
The AES Corporation
) on Mar 28, 2013. The reiteration was backed by its impressive
fourth quarter 2012 results and a global presence. However, these
positives are somewhat tempered by commodity price risks faced by
the company due to its focus on long-term supply contracts.
Why Kept Neutral?
On Feb 27, AES Corporation − a power company engaged in
electricity generation and distribution businesses − reported
impressive fourth quarter 2012 results. Its quarterly earnings
beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 6.7% as well as exceeded the
year-ago earnings by a considerable 60%. The uptrend came on the
back of benefits accrued from asset sale, lower costs and
positive returns from the company's generation business.
AES Corporation operates in 27 countries worldwide and has a
highly-diversified earnings base. The company is well positioned
to capitalize on the regional discrepancies in power prices and
weather-related demand owing to its varied target markets. This
provides a shield to the company from region-specific risks.
Again, AES Corporation's large presence in the developing markets
of Asia and Latin America puts it in a profitable position
compared to its North America-focused peers. Steady economic
growth and power demand in the emerging markets offset to a great
extent the erosion in profitability in North America.
We believe the company's several ventures like the conclusion of
the 447 megawatt ("MW") of installed capacity in 2012 which
includes the big-time 326 MW gas-fired Trinidad Unit 2, 121 MW of
wind as well as various hydroelectric projects will offer
encouraging growth prospects in the near term.
On the flipside, AES Corporation's focus on long-term supply
contracts exposes it to commodity price risk. The company would
be unable to pass on any escalation in prices of coal and natural
gas to its customers.
Also, the company's substantial generation capacity under
construction in emerging countries may face cost escalation and
over-runs. This will impact the company since its earnings are
fixed, as it typically enters into long-term delivery contracts
for utility projects.
Other Stocks to Consider
AES Corporation currently retains a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy). There
are other companies in the sector that appear more promising.
These include
Huaneng Power International, Inc.
Edison International
) and
Brookfield Infrastructure Partners L.P.
), all of which carry a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy).

Hey, its aesy to kill juz 1 vajra... juz strike at its tail...
Answer from: ping pong
At that part you can only get a scythe with a 90 sunder plus 44 divine attack, its easy to defeat a single vajra without much heal pots used. i only do r2+triangle (works for me, i already have the tigris weapon,gun and shield by doing that dont know about how others do it and i dont dispute with results) oh and the yang shield (i think its the correct name) helps with the auto-guard and all + upgrades like spark def. and sunder+ attack. party healer helps a lot.
Answer from: LINDOW
If you have any weapon with these elements use them against the vajra fire/ice/divine
p.s. you need to obtain these items to upgrade your volcanic chainsaw ll
list of materials :
1. king armor +
