Watson Pharmaceuticals Inc. Stock Buy Recommendation Reiterated (WPI)
Editor's Note: TheStreet ratings do not represent the views of TheStreet's staff or its contributors. Ratings are established by computer based on metrics for performance (which includes growth, stock performance, efficiency and valuation) and risk (volatility and solvency). Companies with poor cash flow or high debt levels tend to earn lower ratings in our model.NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Watson Pharmaceuticals (NYSE:WPI) has been reiterated by TheStreet Ratings as a buy with a ratings score of B . The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its robust revenue growth, good cash flow from operations, largely solid financial position with reasonable debt levels by most measures, solid stock price performance and expanding profit margins. We feel these strengths outweigh the fact that the company has had sub par growth in net income.
- ACTIVE STOCK TRADERS: Get trading ideas for stocks under $10 for less than $6/week. Start with a 14-Day Free Trial.
- The revenue growth came in higher than the industry average of 4.3%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues rose by 25.3%. This growth in revenue does not appear to have trickled down to the company's bottom line, displayed by a decline in earnings per share.
- Net operating cash flow has significantly increased by 233.94% to $199.70 million when compared to the same quarter last year. In addition, WATSON PHARMACEUTICALS INC has also vastly surpassed the industry average cash flow growth rate of -43.36%.
- The current debt-to-equity ratio, 0.36, is low and is below the industry average, implying that there has been successful management of debt levels. Although the company had a strong debt-to-equity ratio, its quick ratio of 0.72 is somewhat weak and could be cause for future problems.
- Compared to its closing price of one year ago, WPI's share price has jumped by 29.56%, exceeding the performance of the broader market during that same time frame. We feel that the stock's sharp appreciation over the last year has driven it to a price level which is now somewhat expensive compared to the rest of its industry. The other strengths this company shows, however, justify the higher price levels.
- WATSON PHARMACEUTICALS INC has exprienced a steep decline in earnings per share in the most recent quarter in comparison to its performance from the same quarter a year ago. This company has reported somewhat volatile earnings recently. But, we feel it is poised for EPS growth in the coming year. During the past fiscal year, WATSON PHARMACEUTICALS INC increased its bottom line by earning $2.07 versus $1.50 in the prior year. This year, the market expects an improvement in earnings ($5.77 versus $2.07).

(NewsUSA) - If used moderately and as directed, prescription medicines help ease many health conditions and cure others. But some people don't know the risks of keeping medications unsecured in the home, especially medications that have a high potential to be abused, such as stimulants, tranquilizers and pain relievers.
Easy-to-find medicines can be abused by anyone entering a home, especially teens and young adults. Catherine Hicks, 7th Heaven star and parent advocate, is working with Safeguard My Meds to teach Americans what they can do to help prevent prescription medicine abuse and potential addiction.
Government statistics show that 70 percent of people age 12 and older who abused prescription pain relievers say they got them from a friend or relative.
"As the parent of a teenager, I know how important this issue is. Every day, more than 2,500 teenagers abuse prescription medicine for the first time, and they don't even need to leave the house to do it," says Hicks.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention report that 20 percent of teens have taken prescription drugs without a doctor's order. Hicks says certain simple steps can make a huge difference:
* Keep medication in a locked container out of reach of visitors, children and pets;
* Keep a list of medicines at home;
* Never share prescription drugs with anyone or mix them;
* Talk to your local pharmacists about the best way to store and get rid of old medicines;
* Tell friends and family to keep their medications secure.
"When we keep prescription medicine in our homes, we need to keep those medicines safe," says Keith Hodges, pharmacist and executive committee member of the National Community Pharmacists Association. "We can all make a difference by storing and disposing of our medicine in the right way."

Sakura Bloom Triathlon: Interview Question 1
Even before having children, I had very strong ideas about how I wanted to be a parent. I wanted to hold my children as much as possible. I wanted to breastfeed on demand. I wanted to respond to their cries. I wanted to practice co-sleeping. I was not interested in bottles or cribs or pacifiers or nannies. I wanted my children to be integrated into my life completely, and yet I somehow thought that a stroller would be an immediate necessity from birth on!
When I was pregnant with my first son, I had only a peripheral awareness of the concept of babywearing. I remember filling out my shower registry at Babies R Us and stopping in front of a giant kiosk devoted to the latest models of Baby Bjorn. My husband and I puzzled over the options -- did we want the simpler-looking standard model, or were we more in the market for the top-of-the-line-serious-looking carrier with lumbar support? Bright, happy faces of parents and babies shone out from the glossy fronts of the Bjorn boxes, encouraging us with their perky smiles. We knew we wanted to wear our baby, but still, we felt overwhelmed. Could this contraption really be comfortable and practical? And how would we ever learn to put it on? Most of all, where in heaven's name would we be carrying all the BABY STUFF we were in the process of registering for?!? I envisioned taking a jaunty (short) walk in the park with the baby in the carrier, my husband pushing the STUFF in our giant stroller. OF course, if I needed to DO anything, I could just put the baby in the stroller and carry on...
Little did I know that within months I would get rid of that precious stroller (and cumbersome Bjorn) and find myself gallivanting all over the place with my baby held close to my body in a wrap and the drastically edited stash of BABY STUFF handy at my hip in a compact little bag. It really took having my first son and experiencing life with him for a while for me to mend the disconnect that had led me to initially overlook the amazing array of baby carriers that are out there. My first conversation with an experienced babywearer caused an "ah ha!" moment and I immediately became obsessed with learning more about wearing my son. Becoming connected to the vast and exciting community of passionate babywearers helped even more to show me that this was going to be more than a handy parenting tool. It was going to become a lifestyle.
Carrying my little ones just makes so much practical sense -- I can continue to do all the things that I enjoy doing in life, with my babies along for the ride, hands-free! In a city like New York it has proved invaluable to be able to hop on and off the subway or bus unencumbered by a bulky stroller. I love not having to worry about finding a comfortable or discreet place to nurse because I can breastfeed so easily in a wrap or sling. Most of all, I love how much babywearing soothes my children and fosters an incredibly strong bond and better communication between us. It helps me to be the kind of parent I want and need to be for my children.
Often, people stop me on the street and ask questions about the carriers I use or remark that "we didn't have those back when I had babies." I always acknowledge how wonderful it is that babywearing is becoming increasingly popular with today's generation of parents, but I point out that it is in fact an ancient art.
I am mindful now of stories my grandmother told me when I was little of her own mother, who raised ten children in rural Mississippi during The Great Depression: my great-grandmother carried her tenth child, who was born prematurely, from the time she came into the world. Even as my great grandmother returned to picking cotton under the blazing southern sun, she wore the baby skin-to-skin. The better part of a century later, modern science has begun to show the beneficial power of skin-to-skin contact with infants, and although her daughter stood little chance of survival at birth, my great-grandmother's instinct to wear her might have been what made the difference and helped to save her baby's life all those years ago.
Now that I have two little boys, I am incredibly grateful to have inherited the ancient wisdom of babywearing, and I am proud to have translated it into my very modern everyday life.

Hi! I love your thoughts on babywearing. I am 100 % with you. I wear my little guy (well, big guy--he's a HUGE 10 month old now) in an Ergo, and I love every moment of it. My oldest is 2.5 (3 in Dec), and I'd wear him too, if I could. :) We have a great system with the ergo for our outings. And oh, I wanted to say, too, that I loved what you said about no nannies, breastfeeding on demand, etc. Even with my writing, I still want my kids integrated in my life--all of it. I often feel tired, overworked, etc., but it's working ... somehow! Anyway, your blog absolutely encourages me. It's a breath of fresh air. xo
ReplyDeleteLove these interview questions! All of the images of the women around the world are amazing! And of course, I agree with you 100% on always striving to learn more and on our parenting methods :)...
I LOVE to see babywearing...this last weekend I saw probably 10 women and a couple men at a local pumpkin patch wearing their babies and all but 1 had a Baby Bjorn on :(...which made me sad and just don't get it. Maybe they just don't know what else is out there and obviously don't know the info on the Bjorn. My Love pointed out that at least they are babywearing...yes, but there are so many better/safer/even cheaper ways to go about doing it and ones that you can breastfeed in...- Barbara (twitter - babpe)October 26, 2009 at 8:22 AM
I wanna wear my future babies!
This post made me cry a little bit. So sweet! thanks for these recent posts, i think they are the best things you have posted. i am curious--would it be possible for you to detail what you do carry (you mention a small bag) when babywearing? as another NYCer (ie no car!), i would be interested in the exact logistics of the way you do things. now that your son is bigger do you carry him on your back at all, or still front? thanks! and i hope you get a chance to do that world-babywearing book, fantastic idea!
ReplyDeleteThank you for this great post! We're in the midst of trying to get pregnant and I look forward to babywearing! I esp like what you had to say about all the "stuff" you initially feel you HAVE to have with you at all times. The idea of that has been somewhat overwhelming to me. Just this past April, we were in Peru for our honeymoon. It was my first real exposure to seeing women babywearing. It made so much sense and it was pretty cool to see the little ones know how to climb into the sling/wrap on their own!
ReplyDeleteMargaret -
Thanks for your comment! On the logistics of babywearing in NYC: When I just had one kid, I usually wore my valuables and essentials (a couple of diapers, wipes, keys, cash, metrocard, lipstick) in a small fanny pack. (There are actually some cute ones out there, like with fun patterns al la LeSportsac ;))
Things have gotten a little more challenging with two kids, especially when I'm out and about on my own with them. I wear the baby, and my toddler generally walks or rides in our Maclaren Triumph stroller. My bag has gotten bigger, with two kids, so I'm actually thinking of getting a comfy backpack. I hate navigating public transportation with the stroller, but my oldest likes to ride, and usually falls asleep while we're out, so I usually can't go with out it. When my husband and I are together with the kids, he wears J in the Ergo, and I wear the baby in a sling or wrap.

I run a small company, and my employes always hang on facebook when Im not around the office.
I would like to block facebook access.
I've heard that you can block it by going into windows folder and write a line in hosts (0.0.0.0. www.facebook.com) but my employes found a way to pass it.
We have a Sinope E568+ router, and i would like to block it from router directly.
Any ideas????

How to block Facebook on my router Please Help
Posted 19 January 2011 - 08:18 AM
To be honest, if you have set your HOSTS file to block facebook (you should be using 127.0.0.1 instead of 0.0.0.0... also should probably also block fbcdn.net/com as well) and your employees are circumventing these settings, blocking facebook isn't the way to resolve this issue. If you have sent along an official communication to your staff about it being blocked at some point in the past, and they are still finding ways to get there, that is a personnel problem (rather than a technical problem) that may require disciplinary action (for insubordination). That is just my opinion and not to say there is no technical answer to your question.

LJ Interviews Larry Gritz
Amy Wood, the graphics/layout artist for Linux Journal interviewed Larry Gritz of Pixar Animation Studios on August 16.
AmyI understand that you were a Technical Director for the latest great animation feature film, Toy Story. Can you tell us what you did in that role?
LarryI was one of 30 or so technical directors (TDs) who worked on that film. TD is the job title for people who create the models, write shaders and light the shots. Essentially, they are technical folks responsible for the visual look of the film. Another group, the animators—typically with classical animation rather than technical backgrounds—is responsible for the motion or acting of the characters. There are also countless other people writing the story, designing the look, painting, developing software and so on. In all, it's quite a big team of incredibly talented people. I came into the project fairly late in the production, after modeling was mostly done, but I got to work on shaders and lighting.
What is your background? How did you get involved with graphics?
I started out interested mainly in compilers, but I took a course in computer graphics when I was an undergraduate at Cornell, and I've been hooked ever since. I started tinkering around with writing renderers, and concentrated on graphics in graduate school at George Washington University, doing my MS thesis about a new way of calculating a particular kind of light propagation. I stayed for a PhD (which I am still in the process of wrapping up), doing more research in animation techniques, among other things.
Can you tell us about your Blue Moon Rendering Tools software?
BMRT is a high quality renderer which supports ray tracing and radiosity, area lights, volumetric effects and other advanced features. It runs on several Unix platforms, including SGI, Sun, HP, NEXTSTEP, and of course, Linux. It's cheap shareware, and is free for academic and non-commercial usage. Features that set it apart from most other renderers include support of curved high level surfaces such as bicubic patches and trimmed NURBS, good anti-aliasing support and programmable shading (users can write little programs called "shaders" which control the appearances of surfaces and lights). These features aren't found in many renderers (including big commercial packages), but they are essential to high-end, professional quality rendering.
BMRT is fully compliant with the RenderMan Interface Specification, developed by Pixar. RenderMan is a standard way for modelers to talk to renderers, sort of like PostScript, but for describing 3-D photo-realistic scenes. By being RenderMan compliant, BMRT is largely compatible with Pixar's PhotoRealistic RenderMan product (PRMan, for short), which is probably the most commonly used renderer for feature film effects work (and of course, was used to render Toy Story).
BMRT is not particularly easy to use; it's really more of a developer's product. But it's extremely powerful—much more so than any of the other free renderers out on the net, which are more oriented toward hobbyists.
The BMRT home page, www.seas.gwu.edu/student/gritz/bmrt.html, has several pictures that have been rendered using my software.
Why did you pick Linux as a platform for Blue Moon?
A couple of years ago, I was introduced to Linux by Youngser Park, a fellow graduate student at GWU. He asked me to port BMRT to Linux so that he and other students could run the renderer (as well as our other lab tools) at home. I remember the first time I was at his place and saw Linux running on his computer. I'd heard of Linux before, but never imagined that it could be a robust implementation. When I saw X11 running and realized how easy it was to set up an environment just like I was used to on the SGI, I knew I needed to be running it on my home machine, as well.
What are some interesting projects where the BMRT have been/are used? Is BMRT a popular package? Do you know of any studios that use it running under Linux?
BMRT is fairly popular in the high end. It's rather hard for beginners to use, so it doesn't come close to say, POV-Ray, in terms of the number of people who use it. But because it's so powerful, and RenderMan compliant, it's gotten noticed by a lot of production houses. Judging by the mail I receive, several well-known studios have at least tried it out. Pixar's renderer is much faster, and is less prone to some very subtle artifacts, so no studios would want to use my software instead of PRMan. But since the algorithms are very different, many houses use them together—PRMan for the bulk of the work, and BMRT for those pesky scenes when they just have to have ray tracing or area lights or something. I can't name the studios, but I know BMRT has been used for a couple TV commercials and for an episode of Star Trek: Voyager. I don't think it's been used for final frames of any feature films yet, but I wouldn't be surprised if that happened soon.
I don't know any studios currently using Linux "officially", but many people who work at production houses run Linux at home and like to be able to continue to tinker with shaders and such.
How do you think Linux compares to other platforms?
I think it's a more robust Unix-like OS than many I've seen from the big commercial workstation vendors. I also like the spirit of community and the kind of high-quality, low cost software that is available for Linux. I've tried to contribute to that with the availability of my software for Linux.
Do you think your decision to offer a commercial graphical/rendering tool for Linux will inspire others to make more packages available?
I hope so. With high end Intel chips being a very cost-effective way to get lots of computational power, I wouldn't be surprised to see studios using large farms of Intel-based hardware for their rendering or other graphics tasks. If this is the case, I'd much rather see these machines running Linux than NT.
And in the vein of Barbara Walters, if you had to be one character in Toy Story, who would you be?
Probably Sid, though perhaps without the sadistic streak. I like the tinkerer in him. He has sort of a God complex, but he sure does make interesting toys.
Note that RenderMan is a registered trademark of Pixar, and Toy Story is registered and copyrighted by Walt Disney Corporation. The RenderMan Companion by Steve Upstill (Addison-Wesley, 1990) is a good reference for more information about the RenderMan standard.

How to Build an Optimal Hadoop Cluster to Store and Maintain Unlimited Amounts of Data Using Microservers
Realizing the promise of Apache® Hadoop® requires the effective deployment of compute, memory, storage and networking to achieve optimal results. With its flexibility and multitude of options, it is easy to over or under provision the server infrastructure, resulting in poor performance and high TCO. Join us for an in depth, technical discussion with industry experts from leading Hadoop and server companies who will provide insights into the key considerations for designing and deploying an optimal Hadoop cluster.
Some of key questions to be discussed are:
- What is the "typical" Hadoop cluster and what should be installed on the different machine types?
- Why should you consider the typical workload patterns when making your hardware decisions?
- Are all microservers created equal for Hadoop deployments?
- How do I plan for expansion if I require more compute, memory, storage or networking?

2 / The terms of delivery
Deliveries are made by La Poste Luxembourg and international correspondents.
Depending on the location of the parcels are delivered between 2 and 12 days worldwide.
For Europe the time is normal 4 / 5 working days.
Generally when the parcel is not delivered after ten days it is recommended first to ask for the post office nearest if the factor has not forgotten to bring the package, then notify our society for we will ask the Post to investigate Luxembourg.
In this case you should be aware that we can not ask a survey of Luxembourg Post as four weeks after the date of mailing (international convention inter-items), and La Poste Luxembourg still asks us to four weeks for us confirm the refund of the package.
In other words, it is best to check with the post office in his district that the parcel is pending in their offices.
We found that 3% of the factor fails to leave a calling card (in case of absence) and if the customer does not care about the delivery of the parcel in one hand complications. It was not until eight weeks before finally everything is in order, it is very unpleasant because it creates tensions among all stakeholders, so we attract the attention of our customers on this point.
Always remember that carriers do not provide delivery purposes only and packages always travel at the expense and risk of the buyer.
Do not forget at the time of receipt of the package, if it is not in good condition, indicate on the delivery note before signing and to prevent our society.
In case of late delivery and loss of parcel carriers due to our society can not be held responsible.
In case of lost parcels and after confirmation of La Poste Luxembourg society undertakes to repay the lost package.
3 / The conditions for exchange
Upon receipt of a parcel exchange is possible (during the week after the delivery) if the products have never been worn.
If you are not happy (for whatever reason) of the product you have purchased the company you return it in its original condition and we will refund by bank transfer upon receipt.
Remember to attach a statement of account with your details in the package.
For a first exchange the client sends us the parcel at its expense and registered post to the following address:
THE CASTOR Op Laangert 32, L-5720 Aspelt (Luxembourg)
The return postage is offered and therefore our responsibility.
In case there is a second exchange must provide the customer to return the package to its expenses (registered post) and also send a lump sum of 15 € (cash) or make a bank transfer 15 € for the company. The name of the company and bank codes to mention are the following:
If it is an error on our society, obviously does not reflect the amount expected, and in compensation for expenses paid by the customer return a gift of compensation is provided.
4 / The discretion of information
All information you provide to our society and will always remain confidential and we promise that they will never be disclosed to third parties, with one exception: there is a piracy carried out by evil.

When area residents founded the Kendall County Fair in 1841, they wanted to show off their prize livestock and share agricultural techniques. They held chariot races, served ice cream, and showed exhibitions of horticulture, needlework, and machinery. Then, after 53 years, the old fair was forced to close its gates in August 1907 due to expenses and declining ticket sales. In 1993, a group of volunteers conspired to resurrect the show and continue its mission of education and entertainment.
Today, livestock compete for blue ribbons and local canines are groomed to battle in a dog show. Nashville country-music artists suffuse the air with their twangy observations on life and brave souls climb aboard modern machinery to charge through obstacle courses during lawn-mower races. Amid all this excitement, the fair's organizers also host an antique-tractor parade, attempting to keep old machines running in a straight line—a feat more difficult than reprogramming a robot dog with new software.

Dawson Street head coach Tory McCray has a word for in mind: Repeat.
That's how high the expectations are for the Dawson Street Christian School boys' basketball team as it started the transition from football to basketball last week at the Griggs Recreation Center.
A repeat would be considered lofty expectations for any team that lost six seniors to graduation and only returns two key contributors from the 2011-12 GISA Class A championship team.
But McCray is used to winning, and he said the expectations will remain the same this season, despite the loss of nearly all of the top players.
McCray makes the transition to basketball after leading the football Wildcats to the semifinals of the GISA playoffs for the first time ever. The roster on the basketball team looks much like the football roster, and many of those players are thin on experience on the hardwood.
"With the group we have now with them being so young and not a whole lot of experience, we're going to look for improvement not by wins, but by effort and by execution and by maturity," McCray said. "We're going to be fine."
McCray will be looking to two returning players to help lead this year's squad.
Shaquille Tiggs, who also shattered the football rushing record with more than 2,000 yards this past season, will be joined by A.J. Ferrell. Tiggs is the lone senior on the team, and Ferrell is a junior.
McCray has left than a week left to prepare his team for Friday's opener against Lafayette Christian School.
Conditioning won't be as big of an issue as with some teams as the Wildcats are comprised mostly of football players who have been practicing and conditioning since August.
What McCray will be dealing with, however, is an inexperienced team that will need to find its identity in a hurry.
"Right now, we're just a little bit young and a little big erratic," McCray said last week. "With just two days of practice so far, we've seen kids lose their cool, because they're competing so hard and they don't want to lose a battle, but we have to be able to learn and improve on it every day. If we do that, then we're going to be fine."
Of the players on the team, McCray hasn't made a decision on who will be starting, and perhaps most importantly, who will be handling the ball the most at the point.
Last season, standout guard Antonias Harrison was the man with the ball in his hands, and he's left some big shoes to fill.
McCray said the person who'll play point guard has "yet to be determined. We're going to run a three-guard offense so all three guards are going to handle the ball and all three guards will be able to run the show."
As far as expectations, McCray believes his team can return to the state finals and win another championship.
The Wildcats have been in the championship game the past two seasons, falling short in 2011 before winning it all last season.
"We're expecting to compete every game, play as hard as we can," McCray said. "Wins and losses? There will be wins and losses. Do I expect a state championship? Yes, I expect a state championship."

BUFFALO — Buffalo United Methodist Church carried on a decades-long tradition this week by hosting its annual Bean Supper.
The event — for which admission was free — included a meal featuring a variety of beans such as pintos, butter beans and field peas, as well as trimmings including cornbread, marinated slaw, fatback and onions. Donations were accepted at the door, and all money raised will go toward the purchase of a new air conditioner for the church.
The church fellowship hall was filled with church members and guests, most of whom enjoyed joking with the Rev. Kevin Dalton. Dalton spent time with everyone in attendance.
The evening also included musical entertainment provided by Buffalo resident Freddie Vanderford, who was accompanied by longtime musician David Ezell of Spartanburg.
The evening closed with a prayer for those on the church prayer list for whom special concerns had been expressed.
Staff Writer Derik Vanderford can be reached at 864-427-1234, ext. 29, or by email at email@example.com.

VIDEO: Malaysian Masterchef comes to Croydon
10:50am Wednesday 20th February 2013 in News By Hannah Williamson
A Masterchef champion brought a flavour of Malaysia to Croydon on Saturday.
Masterchef 2010 winner Dhruv Baker, who has teamed up with Malaysia Kitchen, a campaign to promote Malaysian food in the UK, visited oriental supermarket Wing Yip on Purley Way, where he showed shoppers how to create delicious Malaysian food at home.
Regular cooking demonstrations meant customers were able to try some of the dishes themselves, before buying the products in store to try at home.
Mr Baker said: "Malaysian food takes the best flavours from Indian, Chinese and traditional Malay food and merges them into something better than the sum of its parts.
"The result is an amazingly vibrant, delicious and varied cuisine."

With repairs ongoing, resort officials say they will be open for Thanksgiving
Though the rows of snowcapped trees will not be as lush or full as skiers and snowboarders remember from last year, Ski Apache will be back in business and open on Thanksgiving with changes and improvements for the coming ski season.
As visitors crest the final mountain ridge and watch the ski resort unfold before them, old ski lanes, freestyle terrain favorites and familiar vistas will take on a new look after the Little Bear Fire blazed through the resort in June.
Justin Rowland, director of operations for the resort, said that of the 750 acres within the resort, about 60 acres had burned, less than 10 percent of the overall area, and had resulted in "no significant damage."
"We did our best with snowmaking to keep (the fire) out of here," he said. "That's what kept most of it out, but we had one red flag day and the winds got to about 60 miles an hour and it got up and over the snowmakers. All it took was one day and it kicked through here. We were all up here, we started with five guys and when the fire danger backed off we had a group up, fighting spot fires and getting containment from where it had gone in."
The projected estimate to repair the resort sits at about $15 million, though that may change slightly based on operating costs, he said.
He added that "100 percent" of the project cost came from the Mescalero Apache Tribe, which owns Ski Apache.
Frederick Chino Sr., president of the tribe, stated in an earlier press release that the tribe was "happy to make the investment."
Two chair lifts, 2 and 4, along with the gondola, will have to be completely replaced "from top to bottom," Rowland said.
Early visitors to the resort may find some areas blocked off with continued construction, but Rowland said the resort would be completely open before the end of the season.
"The timescale, right now, is that Chair 4 will be done by Thanksgiving, Chair 2 a little bit after Thanksgiving and the gondola between that and Christmas," he said. "So we may be in construction while we're open, but we can still get you to the top with Chair 1 and Chair 7."
One of the major changes will be the time it takes to get to the top of the mountain, down to about eight minutes from a previous 16, thanks to the coming installation of a new gondola, Rowland said.
The gondola passenger capacity will double from four, a particularly tight fit for snowboarders, to eight, he added.
Chair 4 also will double its capacity to four and Chair 2 will add another seat to fit three for the uphill ride, he said.
Additional structures to change will include the base gondola terminal, which will be rebuilt, though the ski patrol offices, medical offices and the Ski Apache Disabled Skiers Program offices will remain untouched. The gazebo and snack bar at the top of the mountain will be gone, for now, replaced by a lift terminal for the gondola, though the tribe would take another look later on to see if those structures will be replaced in another form, he said.
"We lost one pump station that we're going to replace," he said. "We're working on that right now. I think this is going to keep us plenty busy."
No new runs will be added to the resort, but existing runs will widen in varying amounts as burned trees are cleared, he said.
"We're going to pile them in place and burn them," he said. "They're already burned trees and there's no value to the timber."
But the season depends, as always, on snowfall, he added.
"By Thanksgiving we'll have at least (chairs) 3 and 5 open for the bottom area, we'll have that no matter what," he said. "If it's colder, if we can make more snow, we'll go on up the hill."
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration has predicted a better than 50 percent chance that an El Niño winter will occur, though moisture levels are projected to be an average between the moister El Niño and the arid La Niña.
"This is a great opportunity for Ski Apache and the ski area," Rowland said. "We'll have some new facilities and the largest uphill capacity in the state of New Mexico once these lifts are in. We'll be able to haul more people uphill than even Taos and the guys up north, and at a faster rate. That'll mean more time on the snow and not on the lift line."

1. | turrible | ||
The way the great Charles Barkley speaks of the actual English word "terrible."
Used many times to describe teams such as the Milwaukee Bucks, Atlanta Hawks, and Minnesota Timberwolves Man did you see that Bucks Hawks game the other night, that was just turrrible.
Man Scottie Pippin is a foo, he should not come back to the NBA, he would be just turrible |
2. | Turrible | ||
The Charles Barkley way of saying "terrible." Usually it means something that is beyond terrible, and it often contradicts something he said earlier in the sentence. Charles: "Now I love LeBron James. I love everything about him. But that boy plays some Turrible defense"
3. | turrible | ||
extremely bad, even worse then terrible, usually to express remorse for something so bad words usually cant descirbe untill now When Frank's dad died i felt turrible
4. | turrible | ||
an adjective describing something so bad even stupid people recognize it's stupidness. Speaker 1: I'm gonna candy coat this alka-seltzer and swallow it to see what happens.
Speaker 2: That's a turrible idea! |

I love the dress, Magpie!I went shopping too this weekend, with future mother-in-law. Kohl's (dept store) was having a big big sale, and she had more coupons, and between the 2 of us, we got over $1300 worth of stuff for $260. Some clothes for both of us, some clothes for the guys, and some kitchenware. Also went to Yankee Candle and got some more tasty candles (Buttercream and Pineapple Cilantro). Then went back and finished my first quilt! Only been working on that since before Christmas... I think it came out pretty good, most of my corners lined up correctly and it isn't lopsided! It's a basic 9 patch quilt--didn't want to do anything with triangles my first time. However I'm feeling brave now after my success, so maybe I'll try something harder...
Maen Mint!Just returned from a week of soaking up sunshine and hiking through rolling hills in southern Spain. Spent two days in Malaga, and the rest in and around Ronda, a lovely white town straddling a deep gorge. Took far too many pictures (as usual), which I'll undoubtedly manage to put online in ~4-6 years. :P
Ronda is very beautiful,indeed. Was once there with husband and his entire family (siblings in-laws, parents). Liked it a lot.I'm sick again. My tummy looks like second trimester pregnancy although I have hardly eaten.I'm fed up with being sick!
So... I was in this meeting today... There were 5 of us, 3 little peons, 1 manager, and the president of our company. President was speaking to me, and mentioned that I should call Amazon Corporate as we have some questions about our account. While mentioning this, he said "The best part about Amazon Corporate is they speak English. American English!" and then started babbling something about how non-native English speakers from India apparently repeat themselves a lot? I just sort of stared and nodded the whole time, because while I understand he was trying to crack a joke, I don't believe that would have even warrented a "polite laugh". Nobody else laughed either, in fact everyone else looked awkward! Sure, we're all white, living in Suburbia, USA middle-class Americans. ... It's still not funny.What would you do in that type of situation?Times I wish my job required 0 human interaction...
*waves at the prodigal Aan and sends tummy-soothing vibes to ylvs*I'd probably blurt out something highly inappropriate and potentially career damaging, Ad1tu. Fortunately so far I've worked for companies where the bosses understood such comments. :)
*slides into mint*Back from skiing.... and I didn't even make a ginormeous fool of myself.... hehehe.... just the one time though... was a little watery all over the place, so they had carved out a little gully for the water to flow away... was not very wide, easily crossable with skis on.... So first time I got there, no problem, I lined up parallel to it and slided across... then my dad came and stopped in front of the gully, obviously not quite sure how to cross it, so I tell him it's "easy" and make out to show him.... of course now I'm doing it without any speed behind it, skis bend, and I fall over (not in the gully though).... get up with some difficulty and then have to cross the stupid darn gully again.... all is well until my father, in his haste to get to the other side dry, ski's over my pole, which I (stupidly) don't let go, so I slide into sort of a body-split and.... fall over again..... Slightly embarrassing...More fun was to watch my dad actually literally knock my siss out of the way in his fight to get into the chairlift.... they had both not understood the method of the gates letting you in, or stopping you.... dad went before due, siss followed, lift was already there, dad moved to the left, knocked siss out of the way (and onto the floor), got a seat in the lift and siss did not..... while about half the Netherlands was watching....Oh and of course the first day of actual skiing when my dad finally decided to quit... which basically means my siss and I can go faster and don't have to stay back to keep an eye out.... Major misty afternoon, couldn't see two meters ahead, dripping with fog-drops, nobody on the slopes, mist-covered mysterious slopes that curved this way and that at a last moment notice... lovely.... and so was the hot chocolate that we had when, like drowned cats, we came back into the hotel....Back now though... and job interview tomorrow... which kind of scares me.... good pay, great short distance from house, but same boring work, new colleagues instead of the fantastic ones I have now, and not the type of company I've ever wanted to work.... actually one of the type of companies I've always sworn not to ever work for..... difficult....ack!Ooh... andLovely dress and fab coat, Magpie!Hope you get well soon, YlvsWork is weird, Ad1tu, and don't I know it (we have the ultimate gossip of a manager, which is the main reason I want to leave my current job, I'm fed up with listening to her rant about my colleagues, knowing she rants about me behind my back, but will never say anything to my face)Welcome back Aan! (and jealous of the sunshine)Oh and Ruben's looking at B&B's nearer to Castlefest, Sahi... so plans to be made!!Eh.... did I get everything?
You missed the part about pigs flying, Libra ;)

Thanks, Libra! (And Sahi and Ad1tu, of course!)It's so rare that I'm excited about clothes, but I really like these. Especially the pointy hood. I can't wait to wear the jacket, but I'm saving it for the wedding as well, don't want to get it dirty before then. Still almost a month to wait...And I'm curious what my cousin will wear. I can't picture her in a white wedding dress at all (she also has a quirky, colourful taste in clothes.)The weather is disgusting today, wet and windy. Glad to be home and snuggled up against the radiator.
Got one of my packages! And am actually still expecting another package today... Although they only have half an hour left. So it might come tomorrow after all.

Darn..... silly me... *grin*
Got my new music book for my alto recorder today.
Tired! Worked overtime for the first time today (because my boss had to go somewhere and his wife was away as well) - I knew I would, but didn't expect to stay quite as long. And I still have about 100 plants to water at home. I'm already a couple of days behind, so I can't really put it off longer. But at least I still had some soup I could warm up, so I don't have to bother with making dinner. *waits for soup*
Sugar....crash....not.....optimal....zzzzzzzzzzzzzFiancee bought me a giant donut this morning. GIANT. It was tasty, but however now I'm quite sleepy...
I've been sleepy all day - I don't sleep well lately, I wake up about every hour, which is a little annoying. Towards the end of the day I was so tired I kept thinking I heard voices, and mistaking support beams for customers!Now I wish I could just curl up on the couch and eat the rest of my marzipan, but I have to water those plants. I guess I can eat some marzipan while I do that.
Multi-tasking is the way to go! Water plants & eat marzipan sounds like nothing can go wrong.
Done. Well, not quite, but I think the rest will be fine until tomorrow.Now for my daily bit of story-writing - I haven't skipped a single day this month, so proud of myself!
All out of marzipan. :(But if I come home at a reasonable time tomorrow, I'll bake myself a cake, just because I can.
A beautiful sunny day today - and warm! Felt quite strange to work in just a sweater, without warm socks, knit kap, coat, and leggings under my trousers!Weather like this makes me want to sing, which means I get a little annoyed when there are customers (because I will only sing when no-one's listening), and I have to sing in my made-up language, because it's the only one that sounds right for the weather.
Day off today. Going to work on an article I'm writing. And fetch my new keyboard from the post office today (if they actually are open).
Maen Mint!Tummy sickness finally seems to be gone. Use the last day of sick leave to clean house and do a bit exercise.Snowdrops begin to blossom in the garden. Spring is on its way! Yay for spring!
Yay for illnesses that end!
TGIF!Looking forward to going to bed tonight because I don't have to get up early tomorrow!Might go fabric shopping this weekend. I asked future mom-in-law (since she helped me with my first quilt) what a good next quilt would be, and she suggested "Disappearing 9 patch." It doesn't seem technically difficult, though I will have to work extra hard on measuring correctly and sewing in straight lines, but I think I'm going to have to work more on my color-coordination. Which will mean lots of wandering... Maybe I should pick a theme first, lol.
So glad it's finally the weekend! Had two busy days - it's been sunny, so lots of customers. Spent most of the day running around refilling the primrose and pansy tables, saying "yes, certainly, pansies don't mind cold weather at all" and "the door opens to the outside" and babbling other polite nonsense. Then came home to sow some peas, shower, do laundry and some cleaning, and now I'm at my mother's place looking after my brother. And I just want to go home and go to bed - which is pretty silly, I don't even go to bed this early if the next day is a weekday!
Random thought of the day: I do mind untidiness a lot less than dirt - but I'd so much rather tidy up than clean! (Sadly, cleaning is really, really necessary today, so I'd better get started.)
Bored....... actually dying of boredom....... (have enough I should do.... nothing I want to do...) Torchwood.... bring me light, please?!

The graduate major in Environmental Biology prepares students as professional biologists with a strong environmental emphasis.
Required courses cover the spectrum of environmental biology from toxicology, physiology and ethology to population biology and community ecology, emphasizing the applied aspects of these disciplines.
Students are trained in the application of quantitative methods and in the design of field and laboratory studies. Graduates have obtained employment in biological and related fields or have pursued advanced degrees.
A number of graduates work as naturalists at county, state, and national parks. Others have found employment in the private sector as waste management consultants or with planning agencies as habitat assessment experts. The curriculum also serves certified secondary school biology teachers who wish to develop an environmental focus.
Faculty research interests range widely, including topics such as common loon behavior and population dynamics, resource partitioning in aquatic communities, forest ecology, rodent population dynamics, avian reproduction physiology, biological clocks, plant adaptation in wetland habitats, and curriculum development in biology education.

One reason Australian author Ebony McKenna scores a ten with her debut book Ondine: Summer of Shambles (Egmont UK Limited, 2010) and its sequel, Ondine: The Autumn Palace (Egmont UK Limited, 2011), is because she lets her delightfully witty personality shine through on every page. I hope you'll also enjoy learning more about Ebony and some behind-the-scenes details about her books in this two-part interview. The second part is scheduled to run Thursday, so be sure to watch for it!
By the way, Ebony would like to send a signed copy of one of her books to two lucky winners. Contest details are at the end of this post. Did you miss last week's book review? It's available at http://michellefayard.blogspot.com/2011/07/ondine-summer-of-shambles-and-autumn.html. And now for the interview ...
How did you come up with your ideas for the Ondine series?
I should have taken more notes at the time I started writing so that I'd be able to answer this question more carefully—and accurately! But at the time, I didn't know Ondine would be my break-out novel, so I didn't keep better records! At the time, I was editing Web content for some television shows, and one of them was an animals and pets show with a recent story about ferrets. So ferrets must have been in my subconscious. I also took long walks each day to pick my toddler up from day care. So on one of these walks, I suddenly had the image of a teen girl with long dark hair—wearing some kind of hoodie but really old fashioned—and she had an animal on her shoulder. The animal grew heavier and jumped down to the ground. He then transformed into a naked man, and I swear to you it all played out like a movie.
This type of make believe is incredibly normal for me, so at the time I didn't think anything of it. Except I giggled to myself and thought I had a dirty mind! I'd written six novels by this point, but none of them had landed me an agent or a publishing deal. I really didn't think this book would be any different.
Did you decide to have humorous footnotes early on or later in the writing process?
Again, I wish I'd paid better attention. I wanted the ferret to be really cheeky, but if I used too much slang nobody would know what was going on. So I put in a few footnotes—just for myself—so I could go back and try and weave in an explanation along the way. After about four footnotes, something took over and they seemed such a natural fit. Fiction with footnotes? Yes, by this point I was giggling away and feeling very silly. I was also starting to wonder if I might be on to something. So I kept the footnotes and made them crazier as I went along.
How did you know all of the wonderfully clever Scottish slang and phrases?
I didn't know all of them. Thanks to my Scottish heritage and friends, I knew a few, but the rest was research. There are so many hilarious Web sites with lists of Scottish slang—some of them are filthy! I laughed so hard I hurt. I'd take bits from here and there and then change the definitions to suit the way Hamish spoke. The more I got to know Hamish, the more his "voice" grew.
Did you consider any other animals besides a ferret for Hamish's enchanted form? If so, how did the ferret win out?
Yes, for a nanosecond. The animal was initially a rat, but then I changed my mind and he became a ferret. Once I decided he was a ferret, his personality grew so fast I knew I had to write the story down.
What was the hardest part about writing these books?
Writing a proper ending. At the time, I thought it would be a stand-alone novel, with a suggestion that Ondine and Hamish would have further adventures. Well, they're teenagers, there's an expectation that this would happen. But when my agent and publisher agreed on a two-book deal, it changed things.
I needed a proper ending for the first book, but with a definite plan for a second book that would see their relationship grow but also be put under strain. The pressure had to be something that would come from within, although they would also have external factors to negotiate. The second book was a joy to write, but I put myself under enormous pressure to really up the ante. I wanted people to enjoy the first book, but I had to make sure the second book was even better.
What message in your books do you hope will most resonate with your readers?
Oooh, that's an interesting question. I never intentionally put any "messages" in the book because I wanted to write something that was pure joy. I wrote these books so that readers could take time out from their crazy, stressful lives and have some fun. So perhaps the message is that it's OK to let the crazy in.
Can you share a little about your current work with us? Will you be writing more for the Ondine series?
I have written a strong outline for Ondine 3 and 4, and I'm most of the way through a draft for Ondine 3. However, the publishers (the fabulous Egmont UK) are cautious about further books until sales increase for the first two. I wish this wasn't the case, but in this economic climate, I can't blame them either.
In the past year and a bit I have written a time-travel romance called 1916ish. I am also near the end of an unrelated manuscript about a girl and her ghost called The Girl and The Ghost. Both these novels have humor, romance and a big slice of crazy. My agent is excited about them both and is confident she'll find a publisher on either side of the Atlantic to say "yes."
If readers could remember only one thing about you and your books, what would it be?
That girl, she makes me laugh.

Who uses horde formation?
Seriously, who uses it?
I've not come up against a "horde" yet in any of my games. I know we normally only play 1000, 1500 or occasionally 2000 point games, but even the O&G and Skaven players don't run their uber cheap troops in Horde formation.
I see all of these posts on here saying that a hordee of this means such and such, or this particular build won't work against a unit in horde formation, and it got me to wondering how often people actually see horde formation in their games?
