Investors love stocks that consistently beat the Street without getting ahead of their fundamentals and risking a meltdown. The best stocks offer sustainable market-beating gains, with robust and improving financial metrics that support strong price growth. Does Halliburton (NYSE: HAL ) fit the bill? Let's look at what its recent results tell us about its potential for future gains.
What we're looking for
The graphs you're about to see tell Halliburton's story, and we'll be grading the quality of that story in several ways:
- Growth: Are profits, margins, and free cash flow all increasing?
- Valuation: Is share price growing in line with earnings per share?
- Opportunities: Is return on equity increasing while debt to equity declines?
- Dividends: Are dividends consistently growing in a sustainable way?
What the numbers tell you
Now, let's look at Halliburton's key statistics:

Revenue growth > 30% |
76.1% |

How we got here and where we're going
Halliburton doesn't quite come through with flying colors, as it only mustered five out of nine possible passing grades in its second assessment. That's the same score the company picked up last year, which seems to indicate a holding pattern in Halliburton's progress. However, Halliburton's stock growth has outpaced the gains in its net income, and the company's falling profit margins have weighed it down as well, despite the EPS boost provided by a major share repurchase plan. Unfortunately, Halliburton took on more debt to fund the share repurchases. Can Halliburton improve more of its key financial metrics in 2014? Let's take a deeper look.
U.S. oil production recently surpassed oil imports for the first time in decades, and that's thanks in large part to the hydraulic fracturing techniques Halliburton pioneered. However, hydraulic fracturing has been embroiled in several environmental controversies, which stem from injecting injurious chemicals into the ground and the need to pump millions of gallons of water during the drilling process.
In an effort to surmount these criticisms, Halliburton has recently teamed up with Nuverra Environmental Solutions (NYSE: NES ) for its H2O Forward water-recycling initiative, which eliminates the need for massive amounts of water in fracking wells. The company is currently offering the H2O Forward service to oil and gas firms in the Bakken Shale, enabling them to recycle produced water on site. Halliburton also plans to reduce fresh water consumption in the fracking process by 25% by the end of next year. However, GASFRAC Energy Services has devised a liquefied petroleum gas, or LPG-based fracking method, which may blunt the progress of Halliburton's water-recycling partnership with Nuverra.
Halliburton is exploring its own alternatives to water as well, and has been aggressively promoting its "Frac of the Future" program, which could save substantial amounts of diesel by using natural gas to fuel drilling equipment. Fool contributor Matthew DiLallo notes that Noble Energy (NYSE: NBL ) has been working with Halliburton to curb its emissions by fueling its fleets with natural gas in Colorado. This will also result in substantial cost savings due to the long-running discrepancy between natural gas and traditional liquid petroleum fuels. Halliburton's even begun a new initiative to create a fracking fluid made up of the food industry's waste products.
Fool analyst Joel South notes that Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto may soon end the 75-year-old Pemex monopoly on Mexican oil production by permitting foreign companies such as ExxonMobil and Halliburton to work with the state-owned company. This could eventually improve the amount of proven reserves in Mexico as superior technology pushes exploration further beneath Mexican soils. Halliburton's H2O Forward service may also help China by freeing up scarce water for drilling purposes, thereby enabling the country to unlock its large oil and gas reserves.
Putting the pieces together
Today, Halliburton has some of the qualities that make up a great stock, but no stock is truly perfect. Digging deeper can help you uncover the answers you need to make a great buy -- or to stay away from a stock that's going nowhere.
The big oil breakthrough your portfolio needs
Imagine a company that rents a very specific and valuable piece of machinery for $41,000 per hour. (That's almost as much as the average American makes in a year!) And Warren Buffett is so confident in this company's can't-live-without-it business model, he just loaded up on 8.8 million shares. An exclusive, brand-new Motley Fool report reveals the company we're calling OPEC's Worst Nightmare. Just click here to uncover the name of this industry-leading stock, and join Buffett in his quest for a veritable landslide of profits!

Oh, but that money never came to Verres. What does that defence mean? is that
asserted in this case, or only put out as a feeler? For to me it is quite a new
light. Verres set up the accusers; Verres summoned the brother to appear before him;
Verres heard the cause; Verres gave sentence. A vast sum was paid; they who paid it
gained the cause; and you argue in defence "that money was not paid to
Verres." I can help you; my witnesses too say the same thing; they say
they paid it to Volcatius. How did Volcatius acquire so much power as to get four
hundred thousand sesterces from two men? Would any one
have given Volcatius, if he had come on his own account, one half-farthing? Let him
come now, let him try; no one will receive him in his house. But I say more; I
accuse you of having received forty millions of sesterces contrary to law; and I deny that you have ever accounted for
one farthing of that money; but when money was paid for your decrees, for your
orders, for your decisions, the point to be inquired into was not into whose hand it
was paid, but by whose oppression it was extorted.

Stocks headed into the weekend on a peaceful note today, ending in mostly positive territory. A struggling Portuguese bank, believe it or not, spooked investors yesterday, as a flight to safer investments knocked a good 70 points off the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJINDICES: ^DJI ) . With little breaking economic news to go on, and all eyes to a flurry of quarterly reports next week, the Dow added 28 points, or 0.2%, to end at 16,943 today.
Home Depot (NYSE: HD ) was the hardest-hit stock in the blue chip index yesterday. Today's modest 0.3% gain shows that investors forgave some of yesterday's losses -- losses that were hardly rational to begin with. Yesterday, Wall Street nearly had a conniption when flooring retailer Lumber Liquidators sharply cut its second-quarter earnings outlook. The lousy quarter at the $1.5 billion Lumber Liquidators in turn erased more than $1.5 billion from Home Depot's market value alone, as shareholders worried the flooring retailer's struggles were indicative of the home-improvement industry, as a whole.
Tile Shop Holdings (NASDAQ: TTS ) was also a victim of yesterday's collective home-improvement industry freakout. Shares continued falling today, shedding an additional 6.9% on Friday. While Lumber Liquidators' poor performance is more relevant and worrisome for Tile Shop Holdings -- which is also a small-cap flooring retailer -- the sell-off in this stock also seems a little on the harsh side. Motley Fool real-money manager Jim Royal noted yesterday that he was excited to snap up shares at discount prices on the decline.
Shares of World Wrestling Entertainment (NYSE: WWE ) are steeply discounted from where they began the year, off nearly 30% from their New Year's levels. All of those losses and then some, however, were accrued on a single day in May, when the stock took a 43% smackdown. World Wrestling Entertainment shareholders were livid about the broadcasting deal struck with Comcast's NBCUniversal, which will be worth around $200 million annually -- a few hundred million less than what investors expected. But the company isn't completely down-and-out: Shares advanced 2.3% Friday, and the catalyst most WWE believers are hoping for is the company's live-streaming subscription service, which needs 1.4 million users to break even. The WWE Network aims to have 1 million subscribers by the end of the year.
Your cable company is scared, but you can get rich
WWE knows that cable's eventually going away. You know cable's going away. But do you know how to profit? There's $2.2 trillion out there to be had. Currently, cable grabs a big piece of it. That won't last. And when cable falters, three companies are poised to benefit. Click here for their names. Hint: They're not Netflix, Google, and Apple.

There's the familiar saying that mezzos play "witches, villainesses, and breeches".
So even though there seem to be a number of fantastic mezzos in the field today, are they limited by the available roles that they can play?
Please correct me if I am wrong, but it seems like sopranos traditionally dominate the "diva" position.
The sexy, sexy Susan Graham has the answer:
There are some mezzo leading roles as well, it's not just witches and bitches. Carmen, Rosina, Angelina, Ariodante, Isabella, Giulio Cesare, Serse, Charlotte, The Composer, Donna Elvira, Dorabella, Marguerite, Octavian, Dido, to quote a few.
"J'ai dit qu'il ne suffisait pas d'entendre la musique, mais qu'il fallait encore la voir" (Stravinsky)
May I just add that mezzo-sopranos are much nicer and more pleasant race of people in comparison to sopranos who happen to be the real witches, considering the reality, not stage characters they play.
And I don't really think it's so bad with choice of roles, indeed there are many operas where mezzo-soprano is the first lady to love and admire, not to mention that they sometimes sing soprano roles without loosing their mezzo qualities (Joyce DiDonato's great performance of Donna del Lago, for example).
I used to think otherwise but it's the same thing as with baritones: when you start exploring opera you think they are always the secondary characters that do the evil stuff to get the drama going but the more you hear the more you realize it's not the entire truth.
Elena was written for Isabella Colbran and while the identity of her fach is not quite known (she is described as a soprano, although this was before people started differentiating between mezzos and sopranos - plus, we know that she did not really have any high notes), the tessitura is that of a mezzo-soprano. There are sopranos that have sung the role with interpolated high notes, but that is not what is written. The same goes for the other Colbran roles, like Desdemona and Ermione.
Good to know, though most of recordings of that particular opera I know have soprano in the role of Elena (Anderson, Ricciarelli, Caballe) and so I've assumed it is rather soprano role then. Checking wikipedia (I know it's not always the best source), it's marked as soprano role there as well.
Isabella Colbran was considered a soprano, and was singing roles of 'prima donna'. When there was a soprano in the main role, and another role for soprano, this other one was the 'seconda donna', usually a role written with somewhat less range, and also less fioriture.
The real difference between women fach, was with the alto voice. In that same opera, "La Donna del Lago", we had Rosmunda Pisaroni singing Malcolm.
The best historical performers of the role: Rosanna Carteri, Montserrat Caballe, June Anderson,... are also sopranos.
Rossini considered German singer Henriette Sonntag "the purest voice of soprano I've ever heard", and she was also singing Elena. And she would never dream of singing alto roles like sometimes did the Colbran, that could be enlisted into the 'soprano sfogato" ranks.
Could Elena being well served by a mezzo?. Well, many (not to say all) dramatic mezzos will sung Malcolm, instead. However, some light mezzos can also venture into Elena's territory, with good results.
Trouser roles or not, they do provide employment opportunities for mezzo-sopranos and let them be the important character for a change, instead of being the evil one. So, as Baroque opera increases in popularity, the situation for them is actually getting better, thanks to the many trouser roles they can sing in this repertory. I quoted but a few.
"J'ai dit qu'il ne suffisait pas d'entendre la musique, mais qu'il fallait encore la voir" (Stravinsky)
Julia Riley is an English mezzo-soprano and has just joined the ensemble at Zurich Opera. I saw her last night as Alisa in Lucia di Lammermoor. She really is very good & the sextet was fantastic.
Will do a proper review when I get home.
A couple more mezzo roles that don't fit in the witches/bitches/breeches category: Massenet's Therese and Donizetti's Leonora (La Favorita).

Ohio man pops the question with pumpkins
By The Associated Press
Friday, November 1, 2013
DAYTON, Ohio (AP) — An Ohio man got into the Halloween spirit by crafting a clever marriage proposal for his girlfriend.
Zach Stoddard of Dayton used five carved pumpkins strategically placed on the side of a hill to pop the question to his girlfriend of three years, Lauren Brenneman. When the illuminated pumpkins were uncovered, they showed the words "Will You Marry Me?"
Brenneman said "yes," much to the delight of the hundreds of people gathered Wednesday night for a popular neighborhood event called the Stoddard Avenue Pumpkin Glow.
Organizers tell
The Dayton Daily News
that the proposal was a first for the annual event, which featured hundreds of carved pumpkins lighting up the night. It ended Thursday.

Susie O'Neill worried Australia is unfit to field Olympic team
- From: The Sunday Telegraph
- February 17, 2013
SHE'S one of our greatest swimmers but Susie O'Neill is so concerned about the health and fitness of our children she fears we may one day be unable to field an Olympic team at all.
The dual Olympic gold medallist said the current crop of children simply didn't have the same drive to play sport and keep active as her generation did.
"It is a concern. If you imagine a pyramid, the elite person is the top of the pyramid, and that person is higher if you have a bigger base - so the more kids you have doing sport, and competing for the top the higher that top athlete is," the mother of two told The Sunday Telegraph.
O'Neill pointed to the poor performance of our swim team at the 2012 London Olympics, where they brought home only one gold medal, to issue a grim warning for sports fans.
"Will we even have an Olympic team in the future?" she asked.

Hey, don't forget CSS! :>
GLHF Quadv and Deman, Im glad youre back.
Not sure on the exact schedule yet. TeX has matches starting at 9:30am for CoD4 on Wednesday so I assume that will be our target start but unsure.
Myself and TosspoT will be arriving around 9pm tonight, A_Spec will be there around 5pm with all the kit and ReDeYe arrives sometime tomorrow morning.
Be prepared for lots of match coverage cause I'm up for this! :)
cool, dignitas may just win again, mick is no worse than blackmane.
Blackmane is a far more rounded player than Mick and probably, (although Raz, Stevey and Linquan all have a reasonable shout) the MVP of OoF3
they have started the QuadV stream on the front page of Team-Dignitas..

Red Star
A statement posted to the Russian space agency's website said a meeting of the Roscosmos science and technical council considered Russia's future human spaceflight plans, favoring the continued use of the International Space Station until 2024.
Then Russia plans to remove its modules from the International Space Station to form an all-Russian complex in orbit.

Davis and Ma wrote up a long list of one-paragraph game pitches to prototype. They would be small, manageable games that two people could complete on their own.

There is always a last time for everything
Is Science Fiction promoting pseuodoscience? Is it not really better than fantasy? Is it exhausted and dying, per Paul Kincaid (part 1, part 2), a sort of genre-writing version of completing a list of The Nine Billion Names of God? Does physics-bothering unrepentant space case Alistair Reynolds have a compass pointing the way forwards?
Not because it was easy, but because it was hard
Space Oddity
The Man who Fell to Earth was Nicholas Roeg's Sci-fi classic featuring a fragile cocaine addicted David Bowie, between his Thin White Duke days and his Berlin trilogy, as a homesick alien falling into despair. Years later Duncan Jones - AKA Zowie Bowie, subject of a sentimental song on Hunky Dory - would make a Sci-Fi film of his own with similar themes of isolation.

Rocket pistol
The gyrojet pistol (video) - a handgun firing 13mm rocket ammunition, was an attempt to revolutionise gun design in the 1960s. Around a thousand were produced, and some may have seen use in Vietnam. Rifle and carbine versions were also produced. Design problems meant that it never seriously competed conventional firearms, but there is a modern attempt to revive the concept.

Hot space bot uses stirling engine
NASA proposes using a Stirling cooler (essentially a Stirling engine in reverse) to keep a probe cool on the surface of Venus, which has had a tendency to melt or smash previous probes. The cooler would maintain a 25cm sphere within the probe at 200°C -- 100°C above the boiling point of water but sufficiently cool for a high-temperature microcontroller to operate. The waste heat radiators on the exterior of the sphere would reach the temperature of 500°C, 40°C above the the normal Venusian surface temperature.
Ice hot planet
Scientists have discovered a planet composed of scorching hot ice. Originally thought to be a gas giant due to its mass, its actually only four times the size of Earth and most likely composed of exotic forms of ice, such as Ice VII and Ice X with s surface temperature of 300° C.

Sounds more like it was edited because the comment could be seen as vaguely insulting to the Wii U
Ha. Can you imagine Nintendo trying to crank out games that quickly? We'd still be on Prison of Azkaban.
Lego Marvel is awful. The framerate is abysmal in co-op, the game glitches or locks up at least once every 2 hours, and the puzzles are constant, boring, and recycled ad nauseum
I completely fail to see what was so daunting about creating these Smash rehashes. The template is already in place. There was nothing ambitious about the single player mode, and no one seems to care about the new secondary modes
Had NES. Subbed to Nintendo Power. Lamented having to restart this damn game from 1-1 countless times. Never knew this.
I love this game. Even if it's too damn short.
I always preferred Space Megaforce but this was one of my favorite SNES shmups.
@Spoony_Tech - same here. I played Mudds a decent amount just because the 3D effect was so new and shiny, but it certainly wasn't great. I'm afraid this game will be one of those 1/4 finished Metroidvanias that lasts 2 hours and has one boss fight, but I'd like to be wrong.
So this is why the 3DS' top screen gets scratched. And the paint peels. And general build shoddiness.
There seems to be something a little off with the 3D effect. Sometimes it messes with my eyes on the right side of the screen. I'm not sure if I'm just tilting the system on accident or what...anybody else experiencing this?
I do not understand why people like these games. Is this the first auto-runner that you've played? The first one was incredibly dull.
I imported this but didn't have the patience to get through the detective game even with a guide. The action-based titles are great, though.
I haven't gotten super far but I assume some levels have a power up that fits that description.
I don't know what control options you need. Movement is on analog or d-pad, B jumps, Y shoots, L button changes weapons, minus button changes views, right analog moves the camera a bit for the zoomed in view.
The 'needless tips' try to take advantage of the dual screen set-up. You can use the zoomed in view exclusively if you like.
If you can show me a flash game with gameplay mechanics this good and level design this clever then please let me know. Everything seems to be designed with the utmost care to me.
For a remake of a mediocre game it is a bit too expensive. The only thing the original had going for it was a nice atmosphere and the remote control vehicle thing.
This game is very simple yet can be very addictive and mesmerizing. I think it's worth the $2, and the 2-player mode is fun.
I agree the jdarrell that the framerate could stand to be smoothed out a bit but it's not that bad.
Maybe some talk about the graphics, 3D effect, and sound would have been nice. Unless I missed that somewhere.
@Cathousemaster Yes, it would.
I'd also love to see the overworld scrolling smoothed out but I'll take what I can get.
I was actually hoping you'd release this on Vita and make use of the rear touch pad. I think it would work nicely (with front touch options as well, of course).
I got this because I really liked the Wii version and wanted to support the dev. I am baffled that you can't use Wii remote controls in single player. Maybe they will patch it, but with the no-doubt low sales I don't see it happening.
It is no joke that Flying Hamster is absolutely one of my favorite shmups in recent years. Check it out on Vita / psp / ios if you haven't already. I assume it's on Steam for cheap, too.
I liked both. The Genesis version had the better graphics, animation, and music. But the SNES version, imo, is more fun to play and has held up better over the years gameplay-wise.
I can't believe that some people are still sticking their heads in the sand. And apparently want others to actually shove their heads in the sand.
Loved this game. I still love this game.
I enjoyed the sequel as well (so pretty) but I never beat it. It was too damn hard, and I missed the world-building aspects.

In Chapter 4 we saw that alkenes undergo electrophilic addition reactions, and we looked at the different kinds of reagents that add to alkenes. We also examined the step-by-step process by which each reaction occurs (the mechanism of the reaction), and we determined what products are formed. However, we did not consider the stereochemistry of the reactions.
Stereochemistry is the field of chemistry that deals with the structures of molecules in three dimensions. When we study the stereochemistry of a reaction, we are concerned with the following questions:
Before we examine the stereochemistry of electrophilic addition reactions, we need to become familiar with some terms used in describing the stereochemistry of a reaction. a regioselective reaction is one in which two constitutional isomers can be obtained as products but more of one is obtained than of the other. In other words, a regioselective reaction selects for a particular constitutional isomer. Recall that a reaction can be moderately regioselective, highly regioselective, or completely regioselective depending on the relative amounts of the constitutional isomers formed in the reaction. Stereoselective is a similar term, but it refers to the preferential formation of a stereoisomer rather than a constitutional isomer. If a reaction that generates a carbon– carbon double bond or an asymmetric carbon in a product forms one stereoisomer preferentially over another, it is a stereoselective reaction. In other words, it selects for a particular stereoisomer. Depending on the degree of preference for a particular stereoisomer, a reaction can be described as being moderately stereoselective, highly stereoselective, or completely stereoselective. A reaction is stereospecific if the reactant can exist as stereoisomers and each stereoisomeric reactant leads to a different stereoisomeric product or a different set of stereoisomeric products. In the preceding reaction, stereoisomer A forms stereoisomer B but does not form D, so the reaction is stereoselective in addition to being stereospecific. All stereospecific reactions, therefore, are also stereoselective. All stereoselective reactions are not stereospecific, however, because there are stereoselective reactions in which the reactant does not have a carbon–carbon double bond or an asymmetric carbon, so it cannot exist as stereoisomers.
