Laird Hamilton, post-feminist, period scientist and shark behaviour expert, appears to have a really great understanding of how menstruation works, what it's like, and how women manage their flow while surfing. He also makes a compelling argument for why women should be kicked out of lineups (at least once a month, but I'm guessing he'd prefer more often) - they attract sharks.
'The biggest, most common reason to be bitten is a woman with her period. Which people don't, you know, they don't even think about that. Uh, obviously if a woman has her period then there's a certain amount of blood in the water. So, but...'
Laird, mate, if I was bleeding that badly, that I was leaking through all and any of the period products I was using and thus onto my clothes and swimmers, I would likely be in a bunch of pain and thus home in bed. Honestly.
The community members of the wonderful Surf Feminism Facebook page* (where I found the original Mpora link to this video) had some more great links to share on the topic of periods, surfing and sharks.
Mother Jones: Do menstruating women attract sharks?
Cooler: Is it dangerous to go surfing on your period?
*FYI, it's a closed group, so shitty people can be ejected. Yay!

Over the past 5 years, shale oil and gas production from the Bakken formation has increased significantly. As this is the case, Canadian oil and gas have been competing with the significant increase in Bakken oil and gas for pipeline space. Because of this competition for pipeline space, there is a need for increased infrastructure projects to help supply crude to the refineries in the U.S. and to the coasts for shipping overseas.
As there is not enough infrastructure to move all the crude to the refineries and to ports for shipping, a backlog of oil is building. This backlog of oil has generated a painfully steep discount compared to U.S and global light crude benchmarks. Because the Canadian companies are having to sell their crude at a discount, this has brought the price of many Canadian oil and gas companies down. An increase in infrastructure to move the oil and gas to refineries and to the coast for shipping overseas will help create stimulus for all companies affected by the backlog of oil, and in turn, the Canadian Economy. Enbridge President and CEO Patrick Danie stated that the increase in infrastructure and particularly the Northern Gateway is a "national imperative" worth $270 billion to the Canadian economy over the next 30 years.
One company that would benefit from the expansion of infrastructure is Enbridge Inc. (NYSE:ENB). Currently, "Enbridge is Canada's largest transporter of crude oil with approximately 24,738 kilometers (15,372 miles) of crude pipeline. This system is delivering on average more than 2.2 million barrels per day of crude oil and liquids."
Chart sourced from (The Green Grok)
In the section below, I will analyze the three year performance of Enbridge. I will look at the company's past profitability, debt and capital, and operating efficiency. Based on this information, we will look for strengths and weaknesses in the company's fundamentals. This should give us an understanding of how the company has fared over the past few years and will give us an idea of what to expect in the future.
All numbers sourced from Company Webpage and Morningstar
Profitability is a class of financial metrics used to assess a business' ability to generate earnings compared with expenses and other relevant costs incurred during a specific period of time. In this section, we will look at four tests of profitability. They are: net income, operating cash flow, return on assets, and quality of earnings. From these four metrics, we will establish if the company is making money and gauge the quality of the reported profits.
- Net income 2010 = $970 million.
- Net income 2011 = $1,004 billion.
- Net income 2012 = $715 million.
Over the past three years Enbridge's net profits have decreased from $970 million in 2010 to $715 million in 2012. This signifies a decrease of 26.29% in earnings over the past 3 years.
- Operating cash flow 2010 = $1.506 billion.
- Operating cash flow 2011 = $1.891 billion.
- Operating cash flow 2012 = $1.512 billion.
Operating cash flow is the cash generated from the operations of a company, generally defined as revenue less all operating expenses, but calculated through a series of adjustments to net income.
Over the past three years, the company's operating cash flow has increased slightly. Enbridge's operating cash has only increased by 0.4%.
ROA - Return On Assets = Net Income/Total Assets
ROA is an indicator of how profitable a company is relative to its total assets. ROA gives an idea as to how efficient management is at using its assets to generate earnings. Calculated by dividing a company's net income by its total assets, ROA is displayed as a percentage. Sometimes this is referred to as "return on investment."
Net income growth
- Net income 2010 = $970 million.
- Net income 2011 = $1.004 billion.
- Net income 2012 = $715 million.
Total asset growth
- Total assets 2010 = $30.120 billion.
- Total assets 2011 = $34.343 billion.
- Total assets 2012 = $47.172 billion.
ROA - Return on assets
- Return on assets 2010 = 3.22%.
- Return on assets 2011 = 2.92%.
- Return on assets 2012 = 1.52%.
Over the past three years, Enbridge's ROA has decreased from 3.22% in 2010 to 1.52% in 2012. This indicates that the company is making less money on its assets than it did in 2010.
Quality Of Earnings
Quality of Earnings is the amount of earnings attributable to higher sales or lower costs rather than artificial profits created by accounting anomalies such as inflation of inventory. To ensure there are no artificial profits being processed, the operating cash flow must exceed the net income.
- Operating cash flow 2010 = $1.506 billion.
- Net income 2010 = $970 million.
- Operating cash flow 2011 = $1.891 billion.
- Net income 2011 = $1.004 billion.
- Operating cash flow 2012 = $1.512 billion.
- Net income 2012 = $715 million.
Over the past three years, the operating cash flow has been higher than the net income. This indicates that the company is not artificially creating profits by accounting anomalies such as inflation of inventory.
Debt And Capital
The Debt and Capital section establishes if the company is sinking into debt or digging its way out. It will also determine if the company is growing organically or raising cash by selling off stock.
Total Liabilities To Total Assets, Or TL/A ratio
TL/A ratio is a metric used to measure a company's financial risk by determining how much of the company's assets have been financed by debt.
Total assets
- Total assets 2010 = $30.120 billion.
- Total assets 2011 = $34.343 billion.
- Total assets 2012 = $47.172 billion.
- Equals and increase of $17.052 billion
Total liabilities
- Total liabilities 2010 = $22.555 billion.
- Total liabilities 2011 = $25.502 billion.
- Total liabilities 2012 = $36.672 billion.
- Equals and increase of $14.117 billion
Over the past three years, Enbridge has acquired more total assets than total liabilities. This indicates that the company has not been financing its assets through debt. Over the past three years, the company's total assets increased by $17.052 billion, while the total liabilities increased by $14.117 billion.
Working Capital
Working Capital is a general and quick measure of liquidity of a firm. It represents the margin of safety or cushion available to the creditors. It is an index of the firm's financial stability. It is also an index of technical solvency and an index of the strength of working capital.
Current Ratio = Current assets / Current liabilities
Current assets
- Current assets 2010 = $3.761 billion.
- Current assets 2011 = $4.295 billion.
- Current assets 2012 = $6.600 billion.
Current liabilities
- Current liabilities 2010 = $3.355 billion.
- Current liabilities 2011 = $4.860 billion.
- Current liabilities 2012 = $7.069 billion.
- Current ratio 2010 = 1.12.
- Current ratio 2011 = 0.88.
- Current ratio 2012 = 0.93.
Over the past three years, Enbridge's current ratio has decreased from 1.12 in 2010 to 0.93 in 2012. As the number has declined over the past three years, the most recent number indicates that the company would not be able to pay off its obligations if they came due at this point.
Common Shares Outstanding
- 2010 shares outstanding = 761 million.
- 2011 shares outstanding = 785 million.
- 2012 current shares outstanding = 797 million.
Over the past three years, the number of company shares have increased. The amount of common shares have increased from 761 million in 2010 to 797 million in 2013. This signifies a 4.73% increase over the past 3 years.
Operating Efficiency
Operating Efficiency is a market condition that exists when participants can execute transactions and receive services at a price that equates fairly to the actual costs required to provide them. An operationally efficient market allows investors to make transactions that move the market further toward the overall goal of prudent capital allocation without being chiseled down by excessive frictional costs, which would reduce the risk/reward profile of the transaction.
Gross Margin: Gross Income/Sales
The Gross Profit Margin is a measurement of a company's manufacturing and distribution efficiency during the production process. The gross profit tells an investor the percentage of revenue/sales left after subtracting the cost of goods sold. A company that boasts a higher gross profit margin than its competitors and industry is more efficient. Investors tend to pay more for businesses that have higher efficiency ratings than their competitors, as these businesses should be able to make a decent profit as long as overhead costs are controlled (overhead refers to rent, utilities, etc.).
- Gross margin 2010 = $3.836 billion / $15.127 billion = 25.36%.
- Gross margin 2011 = $4.548 billion / $19.402 billion = 23.44%.
- Gross margin 2012 = $5.520 billion / $25.306 billion = 21.81%.
Over the past three years, the gross margin has decreased. The ratio has decreased from 25.36% in 2010 to 21.81% in 2012. As the margin has decreased, this indicates the company has been slightly less efficient.
Asset Turnover
The formula for the asset turnover ratio evaluates how well a company is utilizing its assets to produce revenue. The numerator of the asset turnover ratio formula shows revenue found on a company's income statement and the denominator shows total assets, which are found on a company's balance sheet. Total assets should be averaged over the period of time that is being evaluated.
Revenue growth
- Revenue 2010 = $15.127 billion.
- Revenue 2011 = $19.402 billion.
- Revenue 2012 = $25.306 billion.
- Equals an increase of 67.29%.
Total Asset growth
- Total assets 2010 = $30.120 billion.
- Total assets 2011 = $34.343 billion.
- Total assets 2012 = $47.172 billion.
- Equals an increase of 56.61%.
As the revenue growth has increased more than the assets on a percentage basis, this indicates that the company is making money on its assets.
Based on the fundamentals above, Enbridge is showing mixed results. Over the past three years, many of the profitability margins have decreased. A couple of strengths for the company are: the revenues have become stronger and the company has increased its asset base more than the amount of liabilities. Based on the above criteria, Enbridge is showing that it is a solid company that has been preparing itself to capitalize on a need for increased oil an gas infrastructure.
Looking forward:
Currently, Enbridge has many different projects on the go to meet the need for improved infrastructure. One project is the "Light Oil Market Access Program." According to the company website "the $6.2 billion initiative is comprised of a number of individual projects. Together, these projects will accommodate transportation of approximately 400,000 barrels per day (bpd) of additional light oil to refinery markets in Ontario, Quebec, and the U.S. Midwest."
As part of the Light Oil Market Access Program, Enbridge is working on a project that will increase its transport infrastructure in the Bakken Region. This expansion, "will carry crude oil from Berthold, North Dakota to Cromer, Manitoba where crude volumes can then access the Enbridge mainline pipeline system that serves the U.S. Midwest, Mid-continent and eastern Canada."
Map sourced from (The Tyee.ca)
As well, Enbridge has the controversial "Northern Gateway Project." This much debated project is located in Alberta and British Columbia, Canada. This project has been delayed for political and environmental reasons but would deliver Alberta oil sands bitumen to the growing Asian market.
Analysts' Estimates
Analysts at MSN Money are estimating a strong year for 2013 and the growth to continue in 2014. EPS estimates for FY 2013 are $1.83 while growth is expected to continue into 2014 as EPS estimates increase to $2.09. Bloomberg Businessweek supports this idea as they expect the company's EPS to be around $1.80 for FY 2013 and increase to $2.14 for FY 2014.
Price Targets
- Finviz has a price target for Enbridge at $48.95
- Goldman Sachs analyst Theodore Durbin increased his price target to $46.00.
- Recently, Deutsche Bank gave the company a "buy" rating and increased its target to $49.00
Since 2008, the average P/E ratio for Enbridge has been 21.46. As the company has averaged a P/E of 21.46 and is expected to have an EPS in 2014 of approximately $2.14, this would give the stock a price target of around $45.92.
As the need for oil and gas transportation grows Enbridge is positioned to capitalize on this need. Currently, Enbridge has many projects on the go. Even though these projects are loaded with environmental and political debates, the potential for the lines to go through is there. If Enbridge can get the lines up and running, this would prove to be very profitable for the company, for the investors and the Canadian economy.

Primary elections are over, and the electorate has spoken. Approximately 29 percent of registered voters cast ballots in Jefferson County (42,141 of 144,998), effectively choosing who will represent their parties on Election Day in November — for the most part. Some races were too close to call a clear winner, so a few candidates will face opponents in runoff elections coming in May.

She will celebrate her 100th birthday on Oct. 18.
Downtown Beaumont Junk Days returns this month on Saturday, March 5. Hosted by BAW Resale/Interiors at 660 Fannin St., junk dealers and vendors of all sorts sell their wares up and down Fannin from 7 a.m. – 4 p.m. There's food, live music, and more cool junk and antiques than you can shake a stick at.
Does anybody just sell gas anymore? It doesn't seem so. And it's understandable, with the industry so competitive, prices so volatile and profit margins so narrow. So now your Exxon station is also a Subway, and your Shell is also a McDonald's. But you can go to McDonald's or Subway anywhere. But where can you get good barbecue while gassing up? Lots of places, maybe, but one comes to mind right off: J&R Market at the Valero station in Sour Lake.
A 24-year-old Mexico native was sentenced to prison in Jefferson County Feb. 29 for the murder of 25-year-old Port Arthur resident Denzel Washington. Jose Julio Esquivel was sentenced to 40 years for Washington's murder, 20 years for a separate aggravated assault and 20 years for burglary of a habitation to run concurrently.
While we harbor no disrespect for the Wall Street Journal who called us "that scrappy little paper from Southeast Texas," we prefer to think of ourselves as simple seekers of the truth. We're of the opinion that headlines and sound bites never tell the whole story. Our readers demand all the facts, facets and flavors of every story or event. And, they expect to be informed, educated and stirred to action.

Malaysian PM to set up body to oversee Election Commission
Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak said he would set up special committee comprising ruling and opposition lawmakers to oversee Election Commission to allay concerns over impartiality in polls.
Kuala Lumpur: Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak on Saturday said he would set up a special committee comprising ruling and opposition lawmakers to oversee the Election Commission in order to allay concerns over its impartiality during the recent polls.
The prime minister`s move comes in the wake of opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim questioning the victory of the ruling Barisan Nasional coalition in the May 5 general elections.
Najib said the government would cooperate with the commission to further improve the credibility of elections in the country.
"With this move, it is hoped that the impartiality of the Election Commission is no longer questioned and that the confidence of the people towards the Commission can be strengthened," Najib was quoted as saying by state-owned Bernama news agency .
Najib urged all quarters not to make wild allegations that are driven by self-interest.
He said the commission was not a government agency or department but was a special body set up based in accordance with provisions under the Federal Constitution.
Najib-led Barisan retained its 56-year hold on power by winning a simple majority of 129 seats in the 222-seat Parliament in a knife-edge election last month while the opposition alliance led by Anwar won 77 seats.
Anwar has alleged widespread fraud in the polls and said he would contest the result till the Election Commission explains all the alleged irregularities.

Books that you need to ask hard. Probably not expect that a young girl. If there is something new for you, you will have a bus full of people on their side, because nobody likes to see a girl that you seek. You may have problems, but is temporary (perhaps a suspension, which is not really much). Just think of peace when you have these fools realize that he kisses her. Nobody does a girl react strongly if they knew what was going on. The main (but not said), believes that children deserve it (if you jump) in the face.

I told him if it bothers you more informed than the teacher / director / authority, and he moved, and return to work. If you want more evidence, call the phone number of your friend, if its in the bag and left him to voicemail. It is everything that is said to be incorporated, and the date and time. You can submit evidence to the SA when necessary.
After the personal opinions of seat belts in buses is not much to do, as far as I know that not only records video, sound.

Hola = D
Sounds like a horrible situation where you are, but what would I say it's longer ignore for a few days and then think back on the scene, the boys arrive.
Say yes, e-mail to see your school to this day the band bus.
Any return things for him, or if you know everything you can feel guilty, which is terribly respond, not to his stupid behavior.
You should talk to someone if they do not get through.
Feel free to add me to your contacts and good luck xx

Id ignore what he said about his tail that does not exist. when he says such a thing again, I personally slap. I spoke in this way. but probably should inform their school psychologist, because it is sexual harassment.

A Review of My 2007
Favorite moment being an ultrarunner – Boston Marathon – With a furious Nor-easter bearing down on Boston, it was comforting to know that 40-mile-an-hour headwinds, 40 degree temperatures and torrential rain didn't really bother me. I figured I only had to run three and a half hours! I'd be done shortly after lunch. In the end the rain and wind let up. I had great fun.
Most memorable DNF – Jedediah Smith 50k – I went out with Eric Dube and while chatting on the second lap found out he was running a sub-4:00 pace, far too fast for me. I was aiming closer to 4:15-4:30. Yet, I felt comfortable so I stayed with him and felt really well clicking off the miles - until mile 23, when I suddenly, totally blew up and knew it was over. It sure felt good to run like that for 23 miles. I'll be back to Gibson Ranch to try again.
Stupidest DNF – Way Too Cool 50k – I didn't want to race, so I went out to have fun. This led to picking newts off of the trail so runners wouldn't step on them, which made me miss a turn (stayed on the WS Trail). Once I knew I was possibly off-course, I didn't turn around. I wanted to see if I was correct that the trail would lead me to the bottom of Ball Bearing Hill. It did. I sometimes need to take things a bit more seriously.
Best performance – Miwok 100k – With a goal to run sub-11:00, I kept about 10 minutes ahead of pace the entire race. No low moments, except for the 2 miles on the Coastal Trail where my contact folded under my eye-lid. Then at Pan Toll losing it in the dirt, cleaning it and getting it back in my eye (thanks Pete). Passing a few very good runners on the last leg out of Tennessee Valley let me savor my accomplishment.
Most Unmemorable Moment – Wasatch Front 100 Mile – Leaving Brighton aid station (mile 75) at 4 am with my pacer Rob Evans. After tossing my Cliff Bloks and walking a few hundred yards, I don't recall how I got to the top of Point Supreme (10,500 feet). I remembered following a light, Rob's. When we were among all the rocks on the crest I recall wondering how we had gotten up so high. I do remember running down in the morning light 20+ miles to The Homestead. Simply the hardest thing I have ever done.
Best Time Pacing – Tahoe Rim Trail 100 Mile (USATF National Championship)– Running with Rob Evans on the last 50 miles, through the dark, cool, starry night with Lake Tahoe glimmering below. Our Tuesday night running group finished 1st (Jasper Halekas), 2nd (Mark Gilligan) and 2nd Masters/10th overall (Rob Evans). It certainly helped me during the year to run with such talent.
Paris Hilton Moment - Showing Skin in a Dirty Magazine - I had the privilege to run up and down, several times, the Claremont Hills in Oakland for photographer Corey Rich. He was contributing pics to a Trail Running Mag article on the trails of the East Bay Hills penned by Garett Graubins. I still stand behind the rope line at all the clubs, but not at my local running store, Transports.
Best Blogpost – Scott Dunlap's Fighting My Demons at the Mt. Diablo 50k - Simply the best thing I read on the Internet in 2007. It captures Scott's unique struggle on a difficult course with the help of his fellow runners. The cast of characters and the quality of their camaraderie is a testament to the ultrarunning community. After reading the post, make sure to read the comments. It'll show you why runners set out into the mountains with such people. You don't run alone, but with a compassionate band of sisters and brothers.
Tomorrow is a new year, full of adventures, friends and surprises behind every bend in the trail.

What a year Sam!! You have had quite the adventure(s). My favorite part was you picking newts off the trail at WTC. Not only was it the most endearing ultra act in 07, but it also reminded me of a little girl on Colter's kindergarten soccer team who would have preferred picking newts all day to playing soccer. You are a good man Sam. Hope you, Sarah, and Ely are well and I won't even get into my rant......not another blog!! Not you, Sam!!
BTW, I am kinda getting into some very basic gymnastics training. Would love to pick your brain some time. Have great new year. Let us know if you make your way to Oregon this year.
P.S. I will start working at Fleet Feet Bend in April. Can't wait!

What a great year, Sam! I'll always remember seeing you chase Rob down the Red House loop at TRT - you guys were having way too much fun.
Thanks for the kudos on the blog post. Definitely a memorable moment that will keep me permanently tied to the ultrarunning community forever. I hope it never happens again though. ;-) I'm back to Diablo this year to try again!
All the best for '08!

text: I'm looking for the best general tso's chicken in Boston. I've tried a few places but none are quite right... chicken should be good quality (and not resemble "mystery meat" that makes you close your eyes when you bite it in half), crispy, and with a delicious sauce. If anyone has any recommendations for a place in or around Boston, please let me know.

I LOVE Montessori land and water forms! But there are a few problems when it comes to acquiring them for homeschools and even many schools … they're expensive, take up quite a bit of space, and aren't the easiest materials to make. Fortunately, there are some very simple, inexpensive, and fun alternatives to traditional land and water forms.
Montessori Land and Water Forms
Nataša from Leptir has great photos and descriptions of the Montessori land and water forms as used in a Montessori school. Her post is helpful regardless of what type of land and water forms you choose.
Easy DIY Land and Water Forms
Some of the easiest land and water forms to prepare are ones that only require containers, sand, water, optional blue food coloring for the water, and whatever objects you'd like to add.
I had a post with Land and Water Forms at the Beach, featuring a post from Chasing Cheerios.
Montessori Nature also has land and water formations at the beach.
You don't need to go to the beach, though. OurMontessoriHome.Wordpress.com has a similar type of activity that can be created using simple plastic containers with sand and water.
Three Little Rascals made land and water forms using instant mashed potatoes.
Discovery Moments created a simple version of DIY landforms using rocks and blue water.
Our Montessori Home also had DIY landforms using rocks and water. They had salt dough land and water forms as well.
Teach Beside Me made playdough landforms.
Read About Reading has affordable land and water forms using salt dough, paint, and paper plates.
The Land, Water, Air Toolbox from Montessori By Mom also has an easy-to-prepare sandpaper landform activity.
All of the activities are most effective with some sort of land and water form cards to use as models. You'll find links to printables in an earlier roundup post of mine: Montessori-Inspired Fun with Land and Water Forms. You'll also find links to other tutorials for DIY land and water forms if you'd like to make more traditional models. Those are wonderful if you have the space and would enjoy preparing them.
In the same post, you'll find a recipe for land and water form snacks based on an activity I found online from Ashland Montessori School. It's a fun extension to use with land and water form cards.
For a homeschool (and many school situations), I really like the idea of using outdoor land and water forms. If you've been following my blog, you know that I love outdoor environments for learning, and this is a great activity for an outdoor classroom.
And for a thorough description of how to introduce land and water forms and activities to extend the study of land and water forms, sign up for my mailing list (in my blog's right sidebar) to receive the free American Montessori Society Geography Album by Karen Tyler. It's a 177-page album covering Montessori geography activities for ages 2½-6!
I'd love to hear about your activities with land and water forms! 🙂

Thank you for your cryptic but loving and honest response to my previous questions regarding the implants.
I notice that Alia-Ray and Al-Fred from Sphere Althea of Ashtar Command haven't disclosed the spheres name before? Is there a reason for now disclosing it to us?
We especially liked the muppets theme and that was in fact the response I was seeking to the paddock question but thank you...

Mexico manager Miguel Herrera goes nuts, hugs players after round of 16 qualification (Videos)
For complete World Cup 2014 coverage visit Yahoo Sports and follow @YahooSoccer
Mexico and manager Miguel Herrera took an odd path to the 2014 World Cup. After Mexico struggled mightily in CONCACAF qualifying, the former Mexican international and Club America manager became the national team's fourth leader in the span of a month in October 2013. He successfully guided them to World Cup qualification and four points from the first two group stage matches, including a hard-fought draw with hosts Brazil. With a win or draw against Croatia in Monday's final match of Group A, Mexico would improbably grab a spot in the Round of 16.
Minutes after a missed handball that denied Mexico a deserved penalty, El Tri took a 1-0 lead in the 72nd minute on a header from captain Rafael Marquez. Just three minutes later, Andres Guardado fired a shot into the back of the net to give Mexico a 2-0 advantage, virtually guaranteeing a spot in the knockout rounds.

Herrera got just a bit caught up in the moment. He tackled defender Paul Aguilar to the ground in celebration and then allowed goalkeeper Guillermo Ochoa to jump into his arms in a fit of joy. Check it out below:
Here's a super slo-mo clip of Herrera and Ochoa:
And here's Herrera's face forever frozen in some unholy mix of terror and delight:

If you're curious, Herrera has always had a pretty special look. Here are some shots of the glorious mullet he sported in his playing days:

Mexico added another goal in the 82nd minute before conceding a late, meaningless score to Croatia to come away with a 3-1 win. While both Brazil and Mexico won seven points from the group, the hosts' plus-5 goal differential to Mexico's plus-3 mark gives them the Group A victory and sets up a Round of 16 matchup with Chile. On Sunday, Mexico will face the Netherlands, Group B winners and one of the most impressive teams of the World Cup so far with three convincing wins, including a 5-1 demolition of defending champions Spain.
No matter the outcome of that match, Herrera's celebration and overall accomplishments with this group will remain indelible takeaways from Mexico's 2014 World Cup, and not just because he reminded us all of Chris Farley's "Saturday Night Live" performance as Rudy Giuliani's son Andrew. Mexico have gone from an embarrassing showing in CONCACAF to glory on the soccer's biggest stage. Given the moment, it's understandable why anyone would get so excited.

Can Manchester United Win A 2nd Treble?
After a very confident FA cup victory over the Gunners (4-0), a superb triumph Premier League battle over Fulham (3-0) and an immaculate Champions League result over Lyon (1-0), I humbly think Manchester United can snatch another treble this season. I don't want to be arrogant or put off the other teams, but just check out the Red Devils in depth squad. It's a big team having the highest talent and unbelievable spirit. So, what will the supporters of Arsenal, Chelsea …. and…. Liverpool have to say on this? Do you agree with me?

Discussion in 'Landscape Maintenance' started by gslawncare, Nov 29, 2005.
What does BRICKMAN do with their leaf removal? vacuum, rake, bag? anyone ever watched?
In my area they haul them out. I plow a condo that they landscape for and the leaves haven't been touched yet? I bid for the maintanance contract two years running and have not been able to compete. I'm sure I'll be asked again next year and the results will be the same. The only plus side is I sand the hell out of the condo so they must love me come sand clean up time! I noticed that their full services contracts get straight salt opposed to sand salt mix....makes alot of sense.
They have truck loaders mounted on the trailers necks.
Saw one of their trucks around here... they had the leaf vac on the back of a rack body truck and a canvas type tarp over the top of it.
Is brickman all over the place? i alway see tons of those dirty lookin brown ford trucks lol
Ive seen them mulching leaves at one property, havent seen how they handle them at the other properties for the same business in my area.
Brickman is nationwide... But Truegreen is still #1 with numbers
Can't say that I have seen them in my neck of the woods....maybe thats good!
Yea they are everywhere in IL Chicago all the way to Galena and downstate..It is funny to see 10 to 12 trucks stuffed with people and huge trailers going down the road..can u say convoy
Brickman is a nationwide company when I was at Penn State I went to numerous college fairs they were always heavy recruits for jobs. I live in Pittsburgh and actually looked into a possible employment career with them. They wanted me to relocate to one of thier many locations in Virgina and accept a job on the fieldcrew making about 27K a year. Didnt really sound to appealing to me considering I could have very easily gotten that same job without a college degree. They said I would have to work 12-18 months on the field crew to move into a foreman/managment position. Even then I would have only been looking at like 30-33K. I guess once you are established into the company you start making some good money. But in my personal situation I just expanded my own little business and think it was for the better.

Three prominent national business journalists will explore the collapse of mortgage giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and why top banking executives have not been held accountable for the financial crisis of 2008.
The discussions will take place in the Titan Student Union next week at Cal State Fullerton's annual Communications week.
The guest speakers include David Evans, a Los Angeles-based senior writer at Bloomberg Markets magazine; Alison Fitzgerald, a senior reporter at The Center for Public Integrity, a Washington-based nonprofit group specializing in investigative journalism; and Dawn Kopecki, a Washington-based special projects reporter for Bloomberg News.
Evans' storied career includes the 2011 Columbia Journalism School's John Chancellor Award for lifetime achievement. He was a Pulitzer Award finalist in 2011 for "Duping the Families of Fallen Soldiers," a story that exposed how MetLife, Prudential and other insurance companies concocted a scheme to withhold and profit from $28 billion in death benefits owed to families of service members, including soldiers killed in Iraq and Afghanistan. Evans will discuss his experience in reporting the story and what the fallout has been.
Evans will also discuss his 2013 investigation of how respected national charities allow telemarketers to mislead donors in order to boost fundraising. The story earned Evans a Sigma Delta Chi award, adding another tribute to a career that includes six Society of American Business Editors and Writers awards, the George Polk Award and two Gerald Loeb Awards, all among the highest accolades in business journalism.
Evans will speak about "Investigative Business Reporting" at 7 p.m. on Monday, April 21, in the Titan Student Union Tuffree AB.
Last year, Fitzgerald led a team of reporters that won the prestigious George Polk Award for "After the Meltdown," a three-part series demonstrating, in the words of the Polk tribute, "that regulators and prosecutors have failed to hold a single major player on Wall Street accountable for the reckless behavior that sparked the 2008 financial crisis, allowing them to live lavishly in its aftermath and permitting some to resume the sort of investment activity that plunged the nation into a deep and debilitating recession."
She joined the center a year ago after more than a decade at Bloomberg News, where her coverage of the 2008 crisis and government bailout also received several national awards. She is the co-author of In Too Deep: BP and the Drilling Race That Took It Down, a book examining how the oil company's safety history and culture led to the massive 2010 oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.
Fitzgerald will speak about the Center for Public Integrity and its prize-winning series on the lack of accountability for the financial crisis on Tuesday, April 22, at 11:30 a.m. in Titan Student Union Heterbrink AB.
Kopecki made her mark during an earlier stint in Washington, D.C., covering the mortgage crisis that led to the 2008 financial crisis. She also worked in New York as a Bloomberg Wall Street reporter covering the big banks and their role in the crisis.
Her range of stories, written for Bloomberg News as well as Bloomberg BusinessWeek and Bloomberg Markets magazine, include "Wall Street's Leadership Vacuum"; "Jamie Dimon's Risky Business," a story that persuasively challenged the JPMorgan Chase CEO's reputation for prudent, risk-averse management; "Women of Wall Street Fall Further Behind"; and "The Accounting Wizardry Behind Banks' Strong Earnings."
Kopecki, who appears frequently on Bloomberg Television, was part of the team of Bloomberg reporters who were the 2012 finalists for the finance/economic story of the year award from the U.K.-based Financial Press Association and 2013 finalists for the Gerald Loeb award for their coverage of JPMorgan's massive trading losses due to a trader known as the Big Whale.
Kopecki's topic will be "Why You Should Care About What Happens on Wall Street." She will speak at 7 p.m. on Wednesday, April 23, in Titan Student Union Pavilion B.
These guest speakers have been invited by Joe Winski, the CSUF Reynolds Visiting Business Journalism Professor, with the assistance of a grant from the Donald W. Reynolds Foundation.
"These are some of the best journalists I have ever worked with," says Winski, who was a colleague of the three speakers during his career at Bloomberg News. "Students of journalism, as well as of business and finance, will find their presentations not only informative but eye-opening."
For more information about this year's speakers at Comm Week, visit their information page here.

On Saturday 23rd May BeautyCon came to London. It's the first time BeautyCon has been in the UK which was held at Kensingtons Olympia.
For those of you that don't know BeautyCon is an event for Youtubers and Bloggers to come together all in one place, as well as beauty brands.
Considering it was the first one to be held here it wasn't done too badly, but It wasn't what I expected at all. After attending IMATS and The Clothes Show Live in the past I had imagined it would be on the same scale, however that wasn't the case, there weren't a lot of stands to buy from and the venue wasn't decked out that well. Just a couple of balloons here and there saying beautycon, while the majority of the space was taken up by the meet and greet areas for the youtubers.
I wasn't interested in meeting youtubers, but there were a lot of younger girls there who seemed to spend most of their day queuing to see their favourite youtuber.
I'm not sure if it was because it was the first Beautycon held here but it definitely could of been decorated better, it looked as if they had no budget, and it mainly centred around meeting youtubers when I would of much preferred if there was more beauty stands to look at and buy from as well.
There was also an area for you to watch Youtubers talk about certain topics, which honestly was a little cringey as no one really knew what to say. It would of been much more worthwhile to have more talks about YouTube and blogging as a business, that is something I would of found very interesting. I think that the majority of the talks were based at a younger audience, mainly the Youtubers fans which were there.
My favourite stands were Crown Brush and Red Carpet Manicure.
Crown brush had soooo many brushes to chose from, literally it was difficult to chose, and they were all at a discounted price and we all know how much brushes cost us make up artists.
Red Carpet Manicure had such good discounts, it was four colours for £20 which is amazing considering how much they are individually at normal retail price, they also had all the Cinderella limited edition colours, different LED light sets and everything you need to remove your gel nails.
Honestly I was loving life, I was in need of purchasing more gel colours but they just cost so much so this made my day.
Red Carpet also had quite a few nail technicians there on the day who were doing complimentary gel nails.
Red Carpet also had quite a few nail technicians there on the day who were doing complimentary gel nails.
I think I might do a gel nail blog post soon compared to normal nail varnish.
Red Carpet Manicure Colours I Purchased
304 Expresso Yourself
516 An Evening To Remember
222 Mimosas By The Pool
753 Fuchsia Dreams
Liz Earle had a little area, but it was constantly busy with people queuing to meet a youtuber so I'm not sure if they were selling anything but they were so generous by giving out a smaller version of the ever famous cleanse and polish, with the cloth which is worth it in itself.
The only deal was to have a picture In front of the Liz Earle stand and upload the photo to Instagram!!
It was good to do something different with one of my girls, and definitely worth it for me with my Red Carpet Manicure purchases but I doubt I will be making another trip there.

Review of Cat Spanish
It's a very well known fact by now that Memrise is one of my favorite language learning systems. It's free, it's lightweight, it's even available for mobile devices. It offers courses on over two hundreds languages as well as many other subjects such as geography and art history. It's also loads of fun and it totally works. But what may not be as well known as Memrise is its silly side project cousin; Cat Spanish by the illustrious yet delightfully corny CatAcademy.
Enter Cat Spanish.
I've been meaning to write a decent review of this product since its release in November of 2013, but alas have been bogged down learning languages other than Spanish and hadn't found sufficient time (or motivation) to power through it. I've studied Spanish off and on since high school and I'd like to think that I have a mediocre, intermediate-ish level of competency. I'm always looking for additional resources to assist me with my quest to improve this language so of course I jumped at the opportunity to check out a new Memrise product.
If you're at all familiar with Memrise, it will be pretty easy to understand how Cat Spanish functions. Memrise, as I explained in a much earlier review that I wrote of the program last year, is based on the brain's ability to associate certain words or phrases with "mems". This leads to a great retention rate reinforced by good old spaced repetition.
A mem usually takes the form of a photograph or a phrase that can be associated with a word or combination of words that sticks in your memory.
This strategy turns out to be a fantastic way to learn and remember new vocabulary. check out the screenshot on the left comparing the character for "sauce" with a stoppered bottle.
Cat Spanish uses the same system of memory training except that the memes are all of cats and kittens performing adorable actions or striking poses that will theoretically help you remember your new vocabulary.
Check out the Cat Academy video. It's pretty much awesome.
The Pros:
Cat Academy is adorable. If you enjoy cute pictures and consider yourself a cat person it's hard not to melt at some of these often incredibly memorable pictures. That is the idea after all; you love the cats, you take pleasure in learning and progressing, and you remember your vocab. This product has received extremely positive reactions from major news networks including Forbes, The Wall Street Journal and TIME Magazine, most of them simply gushing over the novelty of cats being used constructively on the Internets.
It's mobile. By now you're probably aware that I love mobile language learning apps. They make it easy to take your projects on the go, they're often fun and can be whipped out at a moment's notice when you're sitting around at a bus stop, in a waiting room, or virtually anywhere else that you might otherwise be mindlessly texting or Facebooking anyway.
It's really, really pretty. For the longest time Cat Spanish had a mediocre overall appearance that wasn't exactly eye-popping. This all changed a couple of months ago when they rolled out a major update that included this beautiful board game-like progression map. It now allows you to compete with other friends and shows their pictures above their own progress as you make your way along the path to conversational Spanish. I'm not quite at the end, but there are fireworks! I can't wait to see what happens.
It teaches phrases rather than individual words. I think there's a lot to be said of a program that focuses on how the words are used in context with one another rather than simply teaching individual vocabulary. This also allows for a lot more content to be taken in in a shorter time frame. Cat Spanish claims to offer over 1,000 words/phrases (and thus cats). That won't make you fluent in Spanish, but it does set a new learner well on his or her way to a solid understanding of the language.
It's inexpensive. One of the biggest things I like to promote is the use of free or cheap programs. Like Memrise, Cat Spanish is free to get started with. They do require you to pay $6.99 to unlock the full 1000 cat/word course. This is mildly annoying but the cost isn't exactly prohibitive, and I would say that it is still worth it for those who have given the program a try and find it to their liking.
It's fast paced. It's important to feel like you're progressing and accumulating new content at a good clip. Cat Spanish, using the aforementioned phrases rather than individual words, allows you to plow through a solid stack of vocabulary – as much or more than 30 words per hour. This is pretty fast compared to
other systems.
|Yeah, it's pretty cool.
The Cons…
Most unfortunately I'm unable to give Cat Spanish the fancy, shining review that I so desperately wish I could provide. The app works, but in my semi-professional opinion it doesn't work as well as it could, or as well as it should.
It's basically just Memrise, with less stuff. Sadly, the harsh truth is that the app comes off as little more than a highly polished, professionally crafted Memrise course, except without the community input and creation and discussion boards and analytics, or basically anything that makes Memrise so incredibly awesome. The beautiful thing about the Memrise platform is that it allows for learners to create their own content, their own language courses, and then it allows the learners who select those courses to provide mems of their own design to help others. Cat Spanish doesn't have this. It's basically a single course with a theme in a sexy package.
There are no penalties for mistakes. Typically I don't really advocate punishing mistakes too harshly. This can often end up discouraging learners and doesn't really seem to help. However, in this case the total lack of any penalty for messing up a word or phrase whatsoever, for me at least, results in minimal language retention. If you make a mistake the program gives you the answer, and then promptly moves on to the next phrase. Mistakes are good, they should be taken advantage of and learned from, not simply circumvented with the easy answer.
On that same note, there is also no reward system. Again, I'd love to say that the language you're gaining is its own reward – and it certainly is – but if you want to maintain motivation it's better to have short term goals such as gaining a perfect score on your session. Memrise has a points system as well as leader boards that allow you to see how you compare in progress and time spent studying to others working on the same course as you. Cat Spanish lacks any real incentive leaving you with nothing more than the satisfaction of inching along the board one more node at a time.
If you're not really into cats it's a bit lackluster. Cat Academy relies on its cuteness factor to bring you back time and time again. But what if you're just not the gushy type, or what if you're not really a cat person? If this is the case this probably isn't the app for you. Unless you're into cats doing adorable things, you probably won't experience the intended retention rate. The silver lining? There are rumors of a dog edition for those of you who lean more towards canines.
Very much a beginner program. This isn't entirely a con – having a beginner-oriented program is great, especially if it can inspire language learning interest early on in a project. But what about those of us who do speak a bit of Spanish already? Unfortunately there's no way for you to test out of the lower levels, so you are still stuck re-doing the basics. Reinforcement is good, but feeling like you're not really learning anything can also be boring and can result in the loss of interest.
The Verdict
Despite the cons; I still think the app is worth your time (and maybe even your money). It's free after all, and it's not like it'll make you worse at Spanish. As with all mobile apps I will continue to assert that they are companion tools for a language learner, not a be all; end all ticket to fluency. Any learner who throws all of his or her eggs into one basket is doing something wrong.
I still give Cat Spanish the benefit of the doubt because I know that it is always being improved. The Memrise team works hard to consistently produce high quality products and if their original program is any indicator, we can probably expect expanded features in the future. We already know that CatAcademy is planning to release other languages in the near future for those of you looking for something more along the lines of "Feline French".
Keep up the good work, Memrise team!

It might seem like a joke to some but after revisiting Yitz's after, oh 6 years or so, I was happy to find that their corned been sandwiches are still pretty good! The food hasn't changed at all since I frequented it growing up. It's still good!
It's too bad not many people go anymore. I guess with people being more health conscious these days, old timers passing on, and the amount of amazing dining options in this city (the lack of parking I'm sure is no help as well) people have kind of forgotten about Yitz's over the past 15 years. Me included. But I'm gonna start returning more often. The place is still nice inside, I surprisingly realized. It has character in spite of the fact that not much has changed over the decades. To me, that is what gives the space character – in a good way. I realized 'ambience' wasn't really an issue. The only thing missing are the people that used to pack the place in the old days. I hope people rediscover Yitz's Delicatessen. For a place that's been around so long it's amazing to me that the food is still quite good!! Or so I think, at least.
I hope others will rediscover it as well. It's on Eglinton at Avenue Rd.

Long shots: Former NFL receiver helps local athletes make opportunities for themselves
SLCguy Murray, UTApril 28, 2014 1:26 p.m.
Great article
John Madsen does a great job at his place, both with the physical and the mental parts of playing.
Good luck to all the Utah kids (the state, not the college ..... not to exclude the college either ...... just to be all encompassing).
Every success story from Utah now makes it easier for the Utah kids in the future.
