Shares are Wal-Mart (NYSE:WMT) are trading lower this morning following the company's weaker-than-expected first-quarter results. As of this writing, the stock is down almost 2% to $77.21. While the stock traded flat in 2014, shares are down roughly 2% over the past twelve months. The company has been under severe scrutiny.
When the retail giant is not being scorned over low wages for its frontline workers, the company gets hammered for what many believe to be "unfair business practices." Management has not taken these shots lightly. They are working hard to reshape how the retailer perceived. But this morning, all that mattered was how they plan to return the company back to long-term growth - something that is taking a bit longer than they expected.
Following the same theme heard/seen within every sector, Wal-Mart cited the poor winter weather for its downbeat results. Shoppers just couldn't make it to the stores, leading to lower than expected first-quarter profit and revenue. Revenue arrived at $114.2 billion, missing Street estimates of $116.3 billion.
As disappointing as that might appear, it's still roughly a 1% increase year over year. And when you factor in the adverse impact of $1.6 billion from foreign currency exchange fluctuations, the number doesn't appear that bad. Consider, without this impact, revenue would have increased more than 2% to $115.7 billion.
From a profitability standpoint, the company posted a net income of $3.58 billion, or $1.10 per share, which is down 5.1% year over year. With the struggles in revenue, it's not surprising that Wal-Mart missed on the bottom line. Management noted that the weather had an adverse 3 cents per share impact on earnings. Not to mention, the higher-than-expected tax rate.
Comparable store traffic in the U.S. declined 1.4% during the quarter, and same store sales in the U.S declined 1.2%. But that, too, isn't a surprise. But what was a surprise was how well the smaller Neighborhood Market stores continue to perform. Revenue from that segment climbed 5% year over year.
And when you consider where that segment's sales were back in 2012, the fact that they've nearly doubled should erase doubt that this company is unable to grow. Perhaps, more impressive is the fact that this quarter marks the 46 consecutive period that the segment has delivered positive comps. For this performance Doug McMillon, Wal-Mart's president and CEO said:
"Wal-Mart's underlying business is solid, and I'm confident in our long-term strategies. We'll continue to invest in price and enhance our service to improve sales."
In terms of guidance, management said it expects flat comparable store sales in the U.S. The company expects earnings to fall somewhere between $1.15 and $1.25 per share compared to $1.24 per share last year. McMillon also pointed out that Wal-Mart remains steadfast on restoring growth throughout the business and remains committed to the previously-announced Neighborhood Markets initiative and rolling out small stores. The question is, are investors willing to be patient.
That's easier said than done, but I wouldn't rule out the possibility of Wal-Mart going the M&A route to find growth. Recall, two months ago Wal-Mart announced plans to expand its organic food stock. The announcement says that Wal-Mart will offer Wild Oats organic products at a 25% discount. Wal-Mart is looking to enter a space that is dominated by The Fresh Market (NASDAQ:TFM) and Whole Foods (NASDAQ:WFM).
The recent consumer shift towards organic and natural foods has created a new growing industry among retailers. Wal-Mart has been relatively shut out, up to this point. Whole Foods has tried this very same move before: it bought out the Wild Oats chain of stores in 2007. The FTC protested the acquisition under antitrust law, and in 2009 Whole Foods sold Wild Oats under court order. Now Wal-Mart is benefiting from the breakup and from the revived Wild Oats brands.
With shares of Whole Foods having decline 10% of late, it makes since for Wal-Mart to go after Whole Foods before it rebounds. Wal-Mart said it will introduce Wild Oats at roughly 2,000 stores -- half of its national footprint. If the brand gains enough traction, the company will then roll out the product to the rest of the country.
Given the recent earnings growth of smaller players like Natural Grocers (NYSE:NGVC) and Sprout's Farmers Market (NASDAQ:SFM), which have both grown in popularity in a short period of time, there is plenty of profit to made. But from my vantage point, it makes an equal amount of sense to just buy either Whole Foods or one of the smaller players like Sprout's.
But more important than profit, this move will do exactly what management has tried unsuccessfully to do the past several years; change the company's image. Wal-Mart would immediately become synonymous with health and wellness. Who would have thought?

What if you could prepare a no-fuss meal on a weeknight that gave you a head start on an even quicker meal the next night? The starter recipes on this show help you to do just that.
This kind of utility speaks to my favorite way to cook, which is to open the fridge, pull out the leftovers, add a little of this and a little of that, and then sit down to a delicious new meal as if by magic. (I am not a blank canvass kind of cook. I prefer it when the ingredients guide the way.) You should definitely consider getting into the habit of always cooking more than you can eat in one meal, knowing that you can repurpose the extra food in a later recipe. It makes weeknight cooking so much easier.

When Jacqueline Firkins, a costume designer in the Department of Theatre and Film at University of British Columbia (UBC), approached Chris Naus, a professor of cell biology in the UBC Faculty of Medicine about a collaboration using his cell images on clothing to raise public awareness of breast cancer, Naus pictured t-shirts. As an ASCB member, Naus was familiar with the t-shirts handed out by exhibitors at Annual Meetings. That was not what Firkins had in mind.
Instead of t-shirts, the results were 10 exquisite evening gowns inspired by colorful microscopic images of cancer cells provided by the Naus lab. The project, entitled "Fashioning Cancer: The Correlation between Destruction and Beauty," was assisted by funding through the Peter Wall Institute for Advanced Studies Research Mentoring Program to support interdisciplinary collaborations. Firkins's idea was to bring science and art together to spark public discussions about the experience of cancer diagnosis and treatment, as well as cancer research and prevention.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height="32px"][dt_small_photos height="210″ padding="0″ arrows="light" show_title="true" number="35″ autoslide="5000″ orderby="recent" category="fashioning-cancer"][vc_empty_space height="32px"][vc_column_text]The Firkins-Naus evening gowns attracted global media coverage including CNN, NBC, the Daily Mail (UK), the Toronto Globe and Mail, CTV, CBC, and The Lancet. Appearing last spring on "The Rush" interview TV program in Vancouver, Firkins described the origins of the project. "I looked at the [cell] images that Dr. Naus had online and I immediately thought that these would make amazing clothes. There was just this phenomenal sense of color, of symmetry and asymmetry, and of contrast—things that as a visual artist I immediately translated from what they meant biologically into three-dimensional art."
"This is as interdisciplinary as I can imagine," said Naus whose research in the Department of Cellular and Physiological Sciences focuses on the role of gap junctions in glioma growth and invasion. But Naus told the interviewer that pictures of Firkins's colorful dresses with their startling cell imagery have opened up conversations about cancer and basic biology with patients and families.
This was a major goal of the project, according to Firkins. The dresses were meant to engage the public through their experiences of cancer. She told The Lancet, "There is a phrase people often use about 'the ugly truth.' We don't think the truth has to be ugly. We are pleased that the work is a small part of a greater dialogue about our relationship to both disease and beauty."
After its whirlwind media campaign, the gowns were sold at auction last September in Vancouver to raise money to support the Cancer Prevention Centre, a partnership among UBC, the Canadian Cancer Society, Scotiabank, Western Living Magazine (WLM), and Porsche Centre Vancouver. The "Fashioning Cancer" archive is here where all ten dresses can be seen with their original micrographs.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

Undefeated is hard to argue with but are 8 wins against a weak schedule impressive or have the stars just aligned perfectly for the Kansas City Chiefs?
The first eight Chiefs' opponents have tallied a combined 20-41 record.
Only the Dallas Cowboys have posted a record that is not below .500 and even they aren't a winning club with their 4-4 record in a under achieving NFC East.
The Chiefs' offense has not exactly been electrifying, led by game-managing quarterback Alex Smith and riding the legs of one of the most dynamic backs in the league in Jamaal Charles.
While watching the Chiefs win by the smallest of margins time after time and only putting up a 24 ppg average it is hard to believe that the Chiefs are in the top half of the league in total offense ranking 13th in total yards (2,646 yds) and 10th in total points (192 pts).
In taking a closer look at their offense the flaw is easy to see.
Alex Smith has only thrown for 1,795 yards with 9 touchdowns and 4 interceptions and less than a 60 percent completion rate -- 224 yards per game is not mind blowing but it's also not the bottom of the barrel as far as quarterbacking goes.
Over the past few season the Chiefs started a few sub-par quarterbacks who seemingly liked to throw the ball to the opponents more than the guys in red. So having a game manager who takes care of the ball and doesn't force it into tight spots is almost relieving for the fans here in Kansas City, only time will tell whether the people begin to demand more explosive numbers. Now to the man who has the weight of Arrowhead Stadium on his back, Jamaal Charles.
The Pro Bowl play maker is on pace for a MVP type season statistically. At the half way mark of the 2013 campaign Charles is second in the league in rushing with 635 yards and 6 TDs. He is also the team's leading receiver with 41 receptions for 383 yards and 2 receiving touchdowns.
Which means that Jamaal alone accounts for a combined 1,018 yards and 8 touchdowns, which is nearly 40 percent of the Chiefs' total yards for the season thus far. He is on pace for over 2,000 yards of total offense this season and 16 touchdowns by himself. If this lightening quick running back can sustain this work load this could wind up being a magical yet exhausting season for the former University of Texas star athlete.
There are forces to be reckonded with on the Chiefs defense. It is a compilation of speed, power, agility, and extraodinary football IQ. Anchored by their two dynamic pass rushers Justin Houston and Tamba Hali this team is on pace to tie the single season sack record held by the 1984 Chicago Bears at 72.
Justin Houston has already set a career high with 11 sacks putting him second in the league behind Indianapolis' Robert Mathis. They are +12 in the turnover differential and are only allowing only 12 ppg. This defense has made red zone stands time after time to secure late leads and created fourth quarter turnovers to seal victories.
To sum things up, the Kansas City Chiefs are legitimate contenders in this league despite not being an offensive power house and playing a handful of poor teams. They have made critical adjustments and found the will to win time after time.
Andy Reid came into Kansas City and turned a unorganized group of talented athletes into a contender that has a real shot at making a deep playoff run if they continue this growth that is exemplified in what players are calling a family atmosphere instead of just a team of prima donnas.

The beginning of a new semester is the perfect time to be thinking about how to grow and expand your YAL chapter. Maybe you turn out a big crowd of people to a information meeting or a semester kick-off rally, but will they come back? Are they still there at the end of the semester? This is the ultimate test of your effectiveness as a student organization, and here's what you need to remember.
Think about the most successfully organized groups you know. These may be churches, veterans groups, or college fraternities, for example. The common thread that sustains the existence of these groups is that they create an environment which not only enables the purpose of the group, but ultimately fosters social interaction. In other words, people want a place they can make friends and hang out! It's half the reason you went to college to begin with. Understanding "community" is vital to the success of your group. It encourages the creativity that occurs when people are comfortable around each other and sharpens ideas on philosophy and rhetorical skills. People build bonds with each other, find other common interests, become friends, and eventually begin to interact outside of the group. I love logging into Facebook and seeing people who are members of my YAL group asking each other which professors to take for a certain class, who wants to meet up for pizza, or where the best trails to go hiking are located. These people will continue to show up for YAL events, if only just to see their friends who they made there! I'm sure they love liberty too.
Starting this Spring Semester, there are some changes in YAL's field program. Missouri is moving from the Midwest Region to the South Central Region, and Colorado is moving from South Central to the Northwest. The above map illustrates the new regions.
Additionally, we're welcomg two new Regional Directors -- Sam Swedberg for the Midwest and Eric Sharp for the Mid-Atlantic -- and twenty-two new State Chairs.
To see in which region your chapter falls and your local leadership team, check out Regional Resources.
Are you ready to head to CPAC 2012 this February 9-11? If not, there's no time to lose to make your plans and secure your spot at the conference. Student passes are available for just $35 and will get you full access to the regular conference sessions for all three days. For those without a student ID or a little extra cash to splurge on VIP events, more expensive options are available starting at $75. Click here to register today. The registration deadline is 5.00 p.m. EST on Friday, February 3, 2012. If you wait to register onsite, you may not get a ticket. Once you've got your ticket, you'll need a place to stay. YAL has put together a list of safe, inexpensive housing options which have rooms available during the weekend of CPAC:

Today YAL is pleased to announce a February campus tour with three civil liberties experts, titled "The War on Terrorism, Civil Liberties, and the Constitution." This one-of-a-kind college tour brings together Glenn Greenwald (a liberal), Bruce Fein (a conservative), and Jacob Hornberger (a libertarian) to discuss the greatest threats to our constitutional republic and individual rights. The tour will be moderated by YAL's own Jack Hunter, and hosted by YAL chapters in conjunction with The Future Freedom Foundation. Here's the schedule:
Make plans today to attend a tour stop near you, and spread the news about this important event far and wide today!

This month marks YAL's third birthday, and thanks to your hard work and support, Young Americans for Liberty has become the largest, most active, and fastest-growing liberty youth organization in the country in three short years! As we head into our fourth year -- and this historic election season -- our fight for liberty will only advance. Head over to YAL's Facebook page or tweet with hashtag #YAL to share your birthday wishes or stories about the influence YAL has had in your life these past three years!
P.S. Yes, that is an eagle eating a cake.
On December 3, 2011, a group of over thirty student activists came to IUPUI for the Fall 2011 Young Americans for Liberty State Convention.
They came to network with each other and see the speakers that were invited to the event, among them constitutional expert and 2012 Indiana Senate Candidate Andrew Horning, former Ohio State Senator Derrick Seaver, and former Survivor contender and 2012 Indiana gubernatorial candidate Rupert Boneham.
Andrew Horning's speech that many of the group had seen before was refreshing nonetheless, and touched on the concept of liberty. Horning also discussed how Hoosier and American voters can have their state and federal constitutions; all they have to do is vote for candidates who understand and will abide by the rules within those documents. Horning made the case that laws should be "few enough to know, simple enough to understand, and pure enough to follow."

How To Get Business Start Up Money By Cole Wyatt Davis
How to get business start up money author Cole Wyatt Davis talks about his fast selling hit book "Investors – They Are Out There"
The first key is to really understand how much money you need without having to come back and ask for more. Second you must have a business plan that represents the amount of money your project is equal to. That is why Cole also wrote the book "Business Road Map". It shows you how to take the idea/concept and turn it into a set of business plans that people can understand.
The third part is, how to present the business idea after qualifying the investors you are trying to get the money from.
Sally Anderson of Orlando, Florida said that she bought the book "Investors"
Diane Lane of Dayton, Ohio said that she had been looking for start up money through the conventional ways such as banks, small business loans, grants and family members with no luck. With the book "Investors"
Cole wrote this book because he saw a lot of great business ideas out there in the business world and all they needed was funding to create financial freedom for those who created them.

Gin without orris root?
Can you find/recommend a brand or type of gin that is definitely made without any orris root? Browsing online thus far has indicated that gin is "often" made with orris, which makes me think there must be some without, but I haven't found any yet. I need it to help test a friend's incipient gin allergy, to try and figure out which botanical is the culprit. [more inside]
How to take advantage of hopped gin?
So I've been gifted a bottle of some hopped gin. What would be a great use of it? What to drink with it? I like gin, and I like hops, so I'm hoping something that makes it special. I'm just feeling like it would be a waste with just tonic. I'm not an amateur, so don't worry about complexity or technique.
What mixes with unsweetened juice and bubbles, served in a wine glass?
I recently bought a Mastrad Purefizz, which easily carbonates 750ml (roughly a wine bottle's worth) of just about anything. My goal is to create drinks to sip on at night, and I'm particularly interested in non alcoholic ideas (but that's not essential). I'm clueless about what tastes good with what, so I need your help!

Tapioca balls in drinks. Also known as boba. I recently saw a bar advertising alcoholic drinks WITH boba in them. And I said "Well that's dumb. Anyone can do that. Why not put the booze IN the boba?" To which a friend said "well that's impossible." And I said, "Oh yeah? Well I'm going to do it." And then I realized I know nothing about this. So to you. Can booze be injected into a tapioca ball? Can they be soaked in booze? Would that work? Would they soak it up? What would be the best way to make booze filled bobas?

(This will be at a bar that basically tends to have everything, although right now they are out of bitters.) I've reviewed older posts along these lines, but was curious to know what else might be available. Thanks!
Sunday Night Jazz in NY
I have a date with my visiting from out of town stepsister this Sunday and she wants to go see some live jazz but nothing too avant guard. Please help me look cool by recommending somewhere we could go. She's a music teacher and plays a couple instruments so unlike me she probably knows good from bad. Nice cocktails would be a plus and ideally not to far out as she's staying at a hotel in Times Square.
There's one bottle of gin on the wall
My partner and I are about spend the next two weeks camping in a fairly remote national park in Tasmania. We are bringing a bottle of gin because we like it and being compact it can come in by boat with our other supplies. We can buy limited other supplies before we leave to mix with it. Other than that we will have access to (possibly rather mediocre) tank water and a decent camp kitchen. So please give us all your creative gin cocktail recipes that can be prepared with limited ingredients in the middle of nowhere. We will toast you as we drink them!

Not by the hair of my ginny gin gin
My favorite drink is a Tanqueray and tonic and has been since I was young. In the US, especially as a teenager, people told me that it was a cranky old man drink while marveling at how it glowed under blacklight. I traveled to London once, and a guy there told me that it was a "chick drink". I, of course, don't let what people think of it affect what tasty, tasty alcohol delivery vehicle I choose, but where you are, what's the "reputation" of gin-based drinks? Are they "manly" or "girly"? And how did it gain that reputation? I'm holding a gimlet right now because I've run out of tonic water.

Six answers to tough questions about employee compensation systems
- "I'm a 25 year-old engineer and I do the exact same thing as a colleague who's 50, how come she makes more?"
- "Why did I only get 80% of my bonus instead of the whole thing?"
- "Why is that guy who reports to me make more than I do?"
- "Everybody knows what everybody else around here makes, how come I didn't get as big a raise as the guy in the cubicle next to me?"
- "Am I ever going to make as much in this job as my brother makes in his?"
- "I didn't get my bonus because there was no way I could influence results. Why did you set compensation systems up that way?"
She's probably been around longer and who's slowly, gradually moved up the salary range in the employee compensation systems, which is what you'll do if you stay in the range as well and perform well over the years.
It's the way employee compensation systems are administered here. We don't, you know – and it actually works. This is what most companies are doing. This is what we're doing. You actually have a potential to earn more money than your colleague who's 50 if you want to work for it and put yourself in a position of being a good candidate for more responsibility. If that's something you're interested in, you can move faster but otherwise, you're going to move along the range in, you know, normal fashion and it took her a long time to get there. It will probably take you a while as well.
Well, there's a formula behind employee compensation systems. So, I think you can sit down with that person and talk about the formula. So, I'm not going to get into it here other than say, you better have a formula for your bonuses. And if you do, that's easy to answer.
It's about ranges and ranges overlap in compensation systems. If it's a very senior person, you're a junior person, moving up fast, it actually makes sense. Eventually, you'll make more.
Go back to the logic of what's going on here. It's obviously not a budget thing that differentiates it because you're both subject to the same budget. There are two other variables in compensation systems, your compa ratio, where you started already in reference to midpoint, and your performance. So, it's some blend of compa ratio and performance.
If he or she has been around less time than you or lower in the range then their percentage increase maybe bigger and your base pay is probably still more. If the other's experienced, then maybe there's a performance issue involved. I wouldn't get in to specifics but I would be able to talk to that person and say, "These are the factors that influence a raise. I'm not going to talk to you about anybody else's increase but I'll tell you what goes into an increase in our compensation systems. And why yours is what it is."
I don't know what does your brother does? Where does your brother work? If you do the same thing in the same company, if you got the same seniority and the same performance, eventually, you'll probably make the same. There are people who complain about government compensation systems where a garbage person makes more money in your community than a school teacher and that's unjust. But you know what? In order to make as much money as the garbage hauler, you'd have to haul garbage. We've got a lot more people right now lined up who want to teach thus driving down the price than we have who want to haul garbage. Sometimes the market makes the rules.
Here, I talk about my great reference in this regard ,W. Edwards Deming, and what he taught about quality . We're all interdependently linked, nobody can do it alone.
No individual goes out there and does all the work themselves. They got to count on other people to come in with them. Just because you sell it, if we can't make it, that doesn't do us any good. Or just because you're capable of delivering it, if they can't sell it, that doesn't do us any good. We are tied together and bonuses come from profit which comes from collective activity which you are a part of and not exclusively capable of doing it that way.
So, that's the way we want our bonuses and compensation systems set up, to be more collective probably than individual.

Editor's note: This article covers a micro-cap stock. Please be aware of the risks associated with these stocks.
Celsion (NASDAQ:CLSN) is a "leading oncology company" that I've been following very closely since a month or two before the company's Phase III HEAT trial failure that took place in early 2013.
So far, Celsion has been holding up, staying up over $1 steadily since it has first peeked its head back over the $1 line two months ago.
Celsion's stock performance has waned recently - catalyzed by disclosed short sellers lobbing half truths and conjecture about the company - but also, catalyzed by Celsion themselves. What do I mean by that? I'll explain.
Celsion ended last week in good shape, jumping 15% on yet another company issued PR starting that the company was going to be attending an investor conference and making a presentation. In the past, these presentations had sometimes yielded small runups in the stock in the subsequent days, so Friday's trading was likely people wanting to get in before and if this occurs again.
As I stated in a previous article, those who have been invested in Celsion since before the post-Phase III crash in January 2013 are likely to be sitting on losses. Those who have invested afterwards, in what I call the "new" Celsion, were at one point up pretty handsomely - but lately, the price has settled in the $1.10-$1.30 region. My first argument to reinvest in Celsion post-crash came when I wrote an article claiming the new Celsion could, at some point, be worth $4/share. I still maintain this view, but we're going to need the company to "tell us something good". More on this later.
As far as refuting the shorts myths, I've done my part. On August 6th, I wrote an article called "4 More Bearish Celsion Myths Refuted,"which was a second part to an article called "6 New Bearish Celsion Myths Destroyed," that I wrote on June 12th of this year. Both articles systematically dissected ludicrous arguments that were laden with hearsay from anonymous sources and general lack of facts.
I'm Behind The Technology
Celsion's technology is, for lack of better words, really rather cool. They're developing liposomal transport systems for delivering medication through the blood stream. Basically, it's like the water soluble packets you put in your dishwasher - when heat is applied to the area in the body through RFA, the liposomes disband and release the drug that they're carrying. From Celsion's website:
Lysolipid Thermally Sensitive Liposomes, or LTSL's, are a unique liposomal technology that allows for the triggered release of a drug payload through low temperature (just above body temperature) heat activation. Used in combination with heat therapy, this concentrates therapy directly within the treatment area.
Although the company didn't have the results that it was looking for in its ThermoDox Phase III study for liver cancer, the company has postulated a number of factors that could be varied in order to attempt to find a successful niche for their LTSL with use in liver cancer.
In addition, the company is currently conducting its DIGNITY study, which uses the same technology for recurrent chest wall cancer. The company has had great preliminary data for Thermodox with use in this area of the body, and those results will be forthcoming in 2014. To this day, I'm still behind the technology that Celsion has 100%. I'd argue that even though they haven't had success with it yet, there are parameters and drugs that they can switch around to find, at some point, a decent use for their LTSL system.
Now, Tell Me Something Good
For certain other reasons, I'm just starting to get the first suggestion of stagnancy with Celsion - here's why:
1. The Company's PRs Aren't Doing Anything For Me
The company has released a slew of PR's over the past few months, all of which talk about presentations and conferences that the company is going to be attending. All of these PRs have managed to temporarily move the stock, but none of them carry with them news of substance that is going to set CLSN up for a long term move.
While I don't mind the company PRing these items, the patience is starting to just run a little thin - if you've got more promising data from the HEAT trial, run with that. If not, simply attend the conference - constant PRs of this nature (aside from the MAJOR conferences like ASCO) aren't necessary in this investors opinion. Also, I'm worried that eventually they start to do more harm than good for the share price.
2. No Execution of Acquisitions
It's been over two full quarters since the company first suggested the idea of acquisitions to not only bolster its pipeline, but to avoid "having all of its eggs in one basket" with Thermodox. I thought this was a great piece of corporate strategy and got behind it immediately. The company said they had engaged Cantor Fitzgerald to assist with potential M&A, and then a quarter later updated that they had 10 potential candidates that they were looking at.
Everything else that the new company proposed after the HEAT trial, namely downsizing and cost cutting, they've done effectively and I've been happy with them.
But, we're now going on three quarters with no substance on acquisitions. I've argued previously that acquiring a profitable company or a company with a pipeline that compliment's Celsion's strategy could be great moves for the company and for shareholders.
Celsion has done almost the maximum of what they can do without producing any major substance since the HEAT trial failed. The company is moving forward and I'm still extremely confident in the executives running the company as well as the technology.
I realize that getting business done takes time, trust me. My bullish lean on the company, however, could start to fade if Celsion doesn't produce something a bit more tangible in the closing months of 2013. I'd settle for any of the following:
1. News on acquisitions
2. Other corporate strategy changes
3. An update on an FDA meeting for a HEAT re-trial
4. News on the DIGNITY study
So Celsion, help your own cause and make the next thing you disclose something good. QTR remains bullish here still, but cautious. I have since liquidated my previous long position in CLSN, but will consider reentry if the price corrects this coming week.
As always, best of luck to all investors.
Disclosure: I have no positions in any stocks mentioned, but may initiate a long position in CLSN over the next 72 hours. I wrote this article myself, and it expresses my own opinions. I am not receiving compensation for it (other than from Seeking Alpha). I have no business relationship with any company whose stock is mentioned in this article.

Now, with the city's garbage woes abating a little, the Bruhat Bangalore Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) has begun scouting for new technologies to manage garbage disposal.
One such technology is the cutter and shredder that will be installed on a pilot basis at Acharya Pathashala in Basavanagudi and Channammanakere Tank Bed in Banashankari.
Demonstration held
A demonstration was recently held at the BBMP head office by the private company that has developed the technology.
H.M. Shivakumar, a representative from the company, said he developed the cutter and shredder to help dispose of all types of organic waste.
He said the benefits were multifold as these machines could help in day-to-day handling and disposal of organic waste in a neat manner, besides reducing the volume by at least 40 per cent.
"This has been successfully tried out at the Siddaganga Institute of Technology, Tumkur. We have converted it into a green campus. This model can be emulated in Bangalore, especially in the many marriage and convention halls across the city," he said.
Less space required
The space requirement for this is less, which makes it a feasible option for the city.
"To set this up, a semi-permanent shed measuring 20x30 feet to house the machine and curing system will suffice. There is no other requirement," he added.
Coconut shells and fronds, banana leaves, flower garlands, food and vegetable waste, dry leaves and garden waste can be effectively managed with this system.
"After going through the machine, the organic material can either be converted into manure or utilised for production of energy. By installing this low-cost machine in many places, we can maintain cleanliness in the city," Mr. Shivakumar said.
Basavanagudi councillor B.S. Sathyanarayana said the machines cost only Rs. 1.5 lakh.
'Composting possible'
"The organic material can be sent to BBMP parks for composting. I have urged the owners of seven marriage halls in my ward to set it up. Instead of organic waste landing up at the dump yard, we can ensure that it is processed and composted."

The venue was nice. I enjoyed the open theater atmosphere though you could hear a background/traffic noise when it gets loud.
The play itself was a bit disappointing. The acting and the production was a little amateurish.
I hope that there be a better production in this venue because it's nice for OC to have its own mini LA Greek Theater or Hollywood Bowl.
Measure for Measure
is the Bard's dark political comedy about government hypocrisy, the tightening of rules regarding sexual conduct (even in private), and "law and disorder". Big Brother is at its best in Measure for Measure — but remember, it's a comedy, and in the end "all's well that ends well."

Tip: Business admins, see Buy a subscription to Office 365 for business from your free trial.
If you have a free 30-day trial of Office 365 Home or Office 365 Personal and decide that you like Office 365, you can buy the subscription you're trying without losing any data.
If automatic renewal is already turned on, then you don't have to do anything to buy Office 365 after trying it. Your payment method will be automatically charged after your trial ends, unless you cancel the trial by turning off automatic renewal.
If automatic renewal is turned off, you'll need to either turn it on, or redeem a one-time prepaid product key from a retail store.
Note: If your Office 365 trial came pre-installed on a device, automatic renewal is turned off, by default.
Verify whether automatic renewal is turned on
If automatic renewal is turned on, then you don't need to do anything further because the payment method, such as a credit card or PayPal, that you provided when you signed up for your trial will be automatically charged for the renewal after the trial period is over.
Go to the Services & subscriptions page.
If prompted, sign in with the Microsoft account email and password associated with your Office 365 subscription.
On the Services & subscriptions page, find the subscription you want to renew.
If you see a renewal date, or a notice of an upcoming charge next to the subscription, that means automatic renewal is already set up, and your subscription will renew on the date shown.
If you see an expiration date, or a Renew link, that means automatic renewal is turned off, and you need to either turn it on, or use a prepaid product key.
How do you want to buy Office 365?
When you're ready to buy Office 365 Home or Personal, you can do so by turning on automatic renewal or by purchasing a product key from a retail store.
We recommend turning on automatic renewal because it's easier, and you won't have to worry about your subscription expiring. However, if you don't want to be automatically charged on a recurring basis for Office 365, you can buy a one-time product key from a retail store and apply it to your trial.
Turn on automatic renewal (recommended)
The steps for turning on automatic renewal differ depending on how you got your trial.
How did you get your trial?
Use these steps
I signed up for an Office 365 Home or Office 365 Personal trial and turned automatic renewal off, but now I want to turn it back on.
I got my Office 365 Home or Office 365 Personal trial with my computer or device.

Anyone arguing that Brexit would make the UK safer and more secure after the Brussels terror attacks is talking "bollocks", a leading Tory MEP has declared.
Sajjad Karim was the Tory-led European Conservatives and Reformists (ECR) group's 2014 candidate for European Parliament President. He is campaigning for the UK to stay in the EU ahead of the 23 June referendum.
Karim was asked by EurActiv about an opinion piece written by Eurosceptic Tory MEP Daniel Hannan in the Sun newspaper after the attacks.
Hannan argued that the Schengen passport-free zone could cost Britain control of its borders. He wrote, "It must now also be clear that leaving the EU will make Britain more secure. We'll be able to stop the wrong people coming in. And, if needed, we'll be able to kick them out."
"Bollocks," Karim said, using a British slang term for nonsense, "and you can quote me on that."
Karim pointed to comments made last week by British Home Secretary Theresa May in the House of Commons.
May stressed the need to work closely and share intelligence with other EU member states to counter terrorism. The European Commission also called for more intelligence sharing after the bombings.
He said, "I am much more inclined to give more credence to what the Home Secretary than I am to Dan Hannan, who has had no experience of national politics, government or administration or indeed policymaking at an EU level – unlike Theresa May."
Karim's comments highlights the deep divisions between British Tory MEPs over Brexit.
ECR leader Syed Kamall has backed Brexit but the majority of MEPs support their Prime Minister David Cameron's desire to stay part of the bloc.
ECR chief backs Brexit
Britain's most senior Conservative MEP has said he will vote for the UK to leave the European Union at the 23 June referendum.
"Without the deepest level of cooperation with those collectively threatened – none of us is safer," Karim said, "There is no safety in isolation in trying to deal with a global terrorist threat."
"What has happened in Brussels has been nothing short of complete intelligence and security failure. Unless we get these angles right, it will be too easy for likes of ISIS to carry out such sophisticated operation at any place and time they want."
He added, "Attacking Belgium [for perceived security failures] in these circumstances is just grotesque. These failures are really collective failures."
Karim witnessed the arrival of emergency services after the horrific bombing of Maelbeek metro station on 22 March in Brussels.
"They were quite a lot of people pouring out of Maelbeek station," Karim, who has a flat nearby, said, "they were clearly panicked."
It was the second time that Karim, a Muslim whose parents emigrated to the UK from Pakistan in the 1960s, has faced terror close-up.
He was in the lobby of Mumbai's Taj Mahal Palace hotel when it was stormed by Islamist gunmen in November 2008, in attacks that killed 164 people.
Schengen and security
Shortly after the Brussels bombings, British politicians and campaigners rushed to argue that they proved their point of view.
Schengen and security fuels Brexit debate after Brussels attacks
British campaigners and politicians on both sides of the debate over the UK's membership of the EU today were swift to cite the Brussels terror attacks as evidence to support their points of view on the Brexit referendum.
Karim, who was forced to move from his Blackburn home after being targeted by the far right England Defence League, said the attacks would not convince UK voters to back Brexit.
"Populists try and confuse the right of freedom of movement with non-EU immigration and the refugee situation, lumping them together to try and confuse the electorate. Thankfully they are not succeeding," he said.
Most of the debate after the Brussels attacks was focusing on the fact that the terrorists were homegrown, according to Karim.
"It was Brits that carried out the 7/7 attacks in London and what happened in Brussels was carried out by Europeans – there are Belgian born and bred," he said.
Karim said he had huge sympathy for those killed or injured in the attacks but that he was also angry and confused.
"Confusion because here once again are EU citizens who are willing to turn on their own country and fellow European citizens for an ideology that is clearly being hatched elsewhere."
Karim said, "This is not just an attack on Brussels but an attack on Europe as a whole. Terrorists aim to divide us as a society. While there is political posturing from certain populists to fulfil that agenda, the overwhelming majority of Europeans will not allow that to happen."
Maelbeek bomb survivor: I will get back on the Brussels metro
A survivor of the Maelbeek station bombing that killed at least 20 people on Tuesday today vowed to get back on the Brussels metro when he returns to work at the European Parliament after Easter.
Brussels attacks – The aftermath
The aftermath of Tuesday's twin bombings at Brussels airport and on its metro. EurActiv gives up to the minute updates on the latest developments and implications at European level.
During his campaign for re-election in 2015, British Prime Minister David Cameron promised to renegotiate the UK's relations with the European Union and organise a referendum to decide whether or not Britain should remain in the 28-member bloc.
The British PM said he will campaign for Britain to remain in the EU after a two-day summit in Brussels where he obtained concessions from the 27 other EU leaders to give Britain "special status" in the EU.
But EU leaders had their red lines, and ruled out changing fundamental EU principles, such as the free movement of workers, and a ban on discriminating between workers from different EU states.
The decision on whether to stay or go could have far-reaching consequences for trade, investment and Great Britain's position on the international scene.
The campaign will be bitterly contested in a country with a long tradition of euroscepticism and a hostile right-wing press, with opinion polls showing Britons are almost evenly divided.

Ex-Thai pm Thaksin denies he was killed in accident in Dubai
BANGKOK: Ex-Thai prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra has denied via his Twitter account reports that he was killed in an accident in Dubai, saying the reports were an April Fools' Day joke, Thai News Agency (TNA) reported.
Thaksin posted his message via his @ThaksinLive Twitter account on Monday afternoon, after nearly two years of idleness to respond to the rumour, saying that his family's members and many other people phoned him to inquire about the information and he explained that it was merely an April Fools' Day joke.
According to the ousted Thai premier, foreigners call every April 1 "April Fools' Day", when people in some European countries make funny jokes and in Thailand, those who dislike others do it this way, which targeted persons should not have any hard feeling; so, we would live long.
The former prime minister, who is an elder brother of incumbent Thai Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra, acknowledged that he plans to soon share his non-political experiences during his overseas trips through his Facebook account. — Bernama
