'Trash Talk' Now Mostly Positive
Howard is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
Talking trash might get you into trouble on the basketball court, but in investment circles it might make you some money. That's because the Big 3 waste service firms — Waste Management (NYSE: WM), Republic Services (NYSE: RSG) and Waste Connections (NYSE: WCN) — are all riding a positive wave that I expect to continue.
As the trio prepares to announce second quarter results at the end of July, the segment continues outperforming the market on both improving numbers and higher expectations going forward. Because of that, market sentiment has accelerated during the last three months and shares of all three are up between 15%-21% this year.
Waste Connections has been the biggest gainer since first-quarter results were released. This continues a string of wins over its peers during the last several quarters, despite its lack of presence in the increasingly important energy-conversion space. A concentration on second-tier cities instead of the major metropolitan areas served by its chief competitors, and last fall's acquisition of a company that serves the potentially huge oil-and-gas waste-disposal market, have definitely struck a chord with investors.
Waste Management and Republic continue to be the industry's top dogs, fielding impressive networks of collection, disposal and recycling operations along with their own landfills and aggressive energy-conversion programs. The combination has proven a winner despite lackluster volume growth and soft pricing for recyclable commodities.
Before second-quarter performance is reported, here's a reminder of just where each of these companies has been heading.
Waste Management
The biggest in the business, Waste Management also remains the most appealing of the segment to me. Recent revenue gains have been negligible, rising just 1.2% year over year in the first quarter after a 0.8% increase in the fourth quarter of 2012. And earnings actually fell 1.8% during the first three months of the year, after missing estimates in the previous quarter. But these shortfalls come from restructuring charges designed to achieve savings and increase yield, and so aren't as bad as they look.
In fact, the company says these restructurings are starting to bear fruit, and it is on target to achieve the savings expected from them. Additionally, it has raised landfill prices by an average of 5%-7% and implemented new rebate structures in its recycling operations. The result led to core price increases during the first three months of the year that were about double what management had projected earlier for the full year, keeping Waste Management on track to meet the positive 2013 outlook it issued in January.
Waste Connections
I've been somewhat skeptical of this company's plans in the past, but must admit that its recent performance has turned me around. The smallest of the Big 3, it has taken its own route and is definitely making it work. In the first quarter revenue rose 20%, profits jumped 26% over the previous year, and both beat analyst estimates. Waste Connections was accordingly the sector's best performer over the past three months, with its stock up 13% while its peers (as well as the S&P) were up less than 3%.
The company has benefited from improving fundamentals, which are still getting a boost from Hurricane Sandy demolition and renovation activity. An even bigger upside — along with an immediate revenue boost — has come from an acquisition last fall that gave Waste Connections a major position in the newly permitted business of waste servicing for oil and gas exploration and production firms.
Republic Services
This company remains a solid performer with a terrific underlying infrastructure. Revenue has been stagnant, rising just 0.8% year over year in the first quarter after being flat during the prior period. But net income during the first quarter was up 19% ex-items on internal growth and sequential improvement in core pricing and volume. And the results led the company to state in April that it remains on track to achieve its previously issued full-year guidance.
But this remains a long-term play because, like Waste Management, Republic recognizes that its trash can ultimately be turned into treasure. It is accordingly laying the groundwork to stake a major claim in the business of converting waste into energy through incineration and tapping gases produced by landfills — a business that will only grow as technology and demand improve.
Two others to watch
Because the segment is looking so positive, two related firms should also be on investors' radar. Each fulfills a slightly different need and does it well.
Stericycle (NASDAQ: SRCL) is a leader in specialty disposals, particularly medical waste. Coming off a strong 2012 it reported first quarter revenues rose nearly 12% year over year — partly through acquisitions — while gross profit was up 13% and margins improved. Its stock has done as well as the Big 3 so far this year and may do even better now that Waste Management has announced it will no longer process medical waste itself and instead outsource that service to others like Stericycle.
Clean Harbors (NYSE: CLH) services disposal needs of several specialty industries, the most important being oil and gas. It, too, has been growing by acquisition and in the first quarter its revenue jumped 51% year over year thanks to its December purchase of a leading oil collection and environmental services firm. Income dropped because of the $1.25 billion deal, but the company says resultant synergies will provide a better than expected $70-$75 million in savings by the end of this year. A backlog of ongoing and upcoming projects also adds to optimism for the second half of 2013 and beyond.
The bottom line
Assuming the economic recovery continues and prices for recyclable commodities rebound somewhat, observers expect a return to double-digit volume growth for all players by next year. Pricing continues to improve and business direction appears to be solid.
My conclusion: the long-term outlook remains positive for this segment.

I read on a very old forum thread that content blocks werent possible then... however is it possible now with the new version of silverstripe to have content blocks that can be used throughout the site. ie in a section it could have a right hand block thats repeated throughout that section and then on another section different blocks. Without having to edit every page to update those blocks

No you still can't do that out of the box. One of the ways if you have a parent page with the content block just do this in your template
<% control Level(1) %>
<% end_control %>
I think that should always return the $SomeContent from the topmost parent page. If you what to have content site wide then you can just put the content on the homepage and do this in the template.
<% control Page(home) %>
<% end_control %>
Re: content blocks
4 March 2009 at 7:30pm
so would it be possible to do extra pages that have very small content... like a little box with some text in... that isnt visible or live on the site but is called from sections of the site... so page_awards has a small 200 wide box with a graphic in.. or graphic and text. this page isnt in the navigation or viewable anywhere BUT on all or certain parts of the site its called using the method you listed and it places that box in a place we specify in the template?

Re: content blocks

Well, I would recomend that you create a custom page type and set ShowInMenus and ShowInSearch to false in the that page type's defaults. Here's a quick example:
class SnippetPage extends Page {
static $defaults = array(
'ShowInMenus' => 0,
'ShowInSearch' => 0,
class SnippetPage_Controller extends Page_Controller {
function index() {
return new HTTPResponse("
This page isn't supposed to be visited
", 404);
Re: content blocks
4 March 2009 at 9:47pm
Sounds like that might solve that issue... so if you looked at these two designs
home http://www.dreamstudio.co.uk/clients/dgs/design5greenblue.jpg
inside page http://www.dreamstudio.co.uk/clients/dgs/inside.jpg
Would you think that silverstripe would be able to have a site lokoing like that .... I can see the navigation shouldnt be a problem, left side underneath navigation ie quick contact can be fixed content and then the right side under the picture is the content blocks we wanted.
Is this possible in silverstripe.. I hope so as I havefallen in love with how it works and cant wait to start using it

Hi Dreamstudio
There is absolutely no reason why you can't achieve that design. This tread should help you achieve block elements for your pages, in the same way that sam suggested.
This is quite a regular request so I am going to put together a proper tutorial for it very soon
Re: content blocks
4 March 2009 at 11:53pm
That is excellent news.. so if i had a custom page for say... calendar and put the information on that... then called that content in the template on the right side it should work as i want...
This would enable them to then edit a page ie calendar on the left side list and change it so it changes throughout all the sections its showing on the right hand side?

"You don't understand," he said. His voice shook. "I've never felt this way about anyone. I didn't think I was capable of loving, not with the way - how I grew up - "
Hermione reached up and covered his hand with hers, his warm breath on her face was oddly soothing her. They stood frozen in this moment, unaware of how many seconds, minutes or even hours had passed already. Snapping out of their reverie, Draco dropped his hands from her face and he moved away from her, her heart did a slow somersault as he did. Her eyes wandered over his face as she could hear the desperation of his words as he spoke again, "If we both feel the same way - we can make it work, Hermione," he whispered, his lashes throwing dark shadows across his cheekbones as he looked down, stuffing his hands into his pockets. Hermione could see that they were shaking, too. Just like hers.
"I don't have control over the future, Hermione. At all", his words were almost soundless, barely a whisper. "This could be the my last chance before… - our first and last night - on this world. I have only so much control over things to make it worthwhile, to make it the best night of our lives", he breathed out, his voice was light and his mouth curved in an half smile as his eyes wandered gently, exploratorily over her face. It was a sad smile with something else hidden underneath, something Hermione couldn't quite grasp no matter how hard she tried.
"Our first and last night?", she repeated slowly. She wasn't good at controlling her voice, she could hear the pain in it, like a wound just under the surface. She couldn't hide what she was feeling and now she felt as if Draco could look right through her as if she were glass, could feel her pain like it was his own.
His hand shot up and grabbed her shoulder, pulling her swiftly yet very softly toward him. Hermione stretched out to wrap her arms around him like she had wanted to do for a long time already, his arms slid around her waist, his hands pinning her head to his shoulder. Draco's hands were warm on her bare shoulders, the only things that were warm in the cold surrounding them. He burried his nose in her hair and heard a sound like a sigh rush through his lips, a wave of noise that told about the dizzying sense of weightlessness in his body. Nothing else mattered but feeling her body pressed against his, he held her as if he wanted to crush her into himself, to reassure himself that she'd always be with him.
"Hermione", he whispered, his voice shaking. "I destroy and poison everything I love. Not deliberately, of course. But I don't want to destroy you too. Not you too."

Lead-tracking software helps maximize
advertising budgets and even minimize on-site staffing
THE KISLAK ORGANIZATION, which owns and manages about
3,100 units throughout the Southeast and Southwest, recently wanted
to determine where its biggest sources of traffic come from. This
past April, the Miami Lakes, Fla.-based firm purchased
lead-tracking software called PopCard. The information gleaned from
PopCard allowed the company to refocus its marketing efforts, and,
going forward, the knowledge gives the firm leverage when
re-negotiating advertising contracts.
Armed with the new data, the company reduced advertising
expenses by 81 percent at one property by turning from print to
Internet marketing. Additionally, Kislak reduced its advertising
expenses at three other properties by 30 percent.
The software also allowed the company to better focus its
on-site staffing hours. "We can track what times
most of the calls come in, modify our office hours, and staff
appropriately at peak hours. That's also
minimized costs," says Dung Lam,
Kislak's CFO. Those modified office hours
allowed the company to reduce its use of a third-party answering
service for after-hours calls. And paper guest cards are now just a
What's more, this year the firm also began
providing its leasing staff with BlackBerrys to take home at night
and monitor the leasing office inbox. "The first
person who replies to these e-mails gets the lease a lot of
times," Lam says. "So while we do
incur a little bit of cost on the BlackBerry, our leasing
associates can reply to potential residents up until 9 p.m. or 10
p.m. at night."
TO PARAPHRASE AN OLD QUESTION: If prospective residents call and nobody hears them, do they still make a sound?
Property managers know that missed calls are missed revenue. Yet
the typical property misses nearly half of the calls coming in to
the leasing office. That's why 24/7 call centers
like those offered by Carrollton, Texas-based RealPage and Greer,
S.C.-based LevelOne are becoming such a popular option.
"In the past, we probably only answered about
50 percent to 60 percent of the calls during the day,"
says Donald Davidoff, group vice president of strategic systems for
Englewood, Colo.-based Archstone, which switched to a call center
in early 2010. "And about 12 percent to 14
percent of our leads came in afterhours. If they
didn't call back the next day or leave a
message, we lost them."
Similarly, Essex Property Trust implemented a call center last
year for all of its prospective resident calls and credits the move
with helping push its portfolio-wide occupancy levels to the
high-90 percent range, despite the trials of the Great
"We've seen an increase in
traffic, and we have better close ratios now," says
Michael Dance, CFO of the Palo Alto, Calif.-based REIT.
"And over time, we may be able to reduce the
number of sales associates on staff."
Outsourcing to call centers, however, is only step one.
Tech-savvy multifamily firms also are carefully tracking which
advertising mediums prompt prospects to call the leasing center:
Did they hear about the apartment community through print
advertising, an Internet Listing Service (ILS), Craigslist, even
Facebook? The strategic combination of call centers and lead
tracking is a surefire way to maximize advertising dollars and
boost occupancies and rents, which is more important than ever in
today's tough economic climate.
An effective marketing campaign will lead prospects to call your
leasing office, and call centers are often the best tool to ensure
that no calls go unanswered. But call centers
aren't just about building occupancy and
reducing site staff. More leads can mean more pricing power too,
even when there are no units left to lease.
Archstone implemented LevelOne's call center
for all of its 178 properties earlier this year and is now
capturing about 98 percent of all calls. The company ran a test
last year at 20 of its properties (comparing against 20 nearby
control properties) to measure the effect of pairing the call
center's extra leads with its revenue management
In the process, it was able to overturn a hoary old chestnut of
conventional thinking: Extra leads at a fully-occupied property
mean nothing. Archstone was able to improve per-unit revenue by 1.5
percent at its occupied properties based on the new demand curve
generated by the combo of LevelOne and revenue management software
data. That doesn't sound like much, but at a
250-unit community with average rents of $1,000 a unit,
that's an extra $45,000 annually. The cost to
use LevelOne's call center at such a community
averages $9,600 annually, resulting in a return on investment of an
astounding 468 percent.
The results are even more impressive when you factor in the
test's time line of January 2009 to September
2009, a tough rental environment for most apartment owners.
"If it was an up market, we
would've been able to raise revenues [even]
more," Davidoff says.
Call centers, though, handle more than just phone calls: They
also offer 24-hour e-mail response services. Like many multifamily
managers, Burke, Va.-based Van Metre Apartments, which uses
LevelOne, sees its highest level of website traffic after 7 p.m.
But for those firms that don't use call centers,
e-mails sent after 7 p.m. likely sit unopened for at least 14
hours, maybe longer. And the chances of closing on a qualified
prospect decrease every hour that contact isn't
returned, says Carissa Barry, vice president of marketing for Van
Metre, which owns and operates about 2,400 units, most of which are
located in Northern Virginia.
"If you're a smaller
company, you're at a competitive disadvantage by
not following up on your e-mails quickly, especially in a day and
age when most consumers do their research online,"
Barry adds. "The AvalonBays, Archstones, Camdens
all have a call center, so everyone is now available 24 hours a
day, seven days a week."
Still, not every company is sold on the benefits of outsourcing
the call center. A couple of years ago, Camden Property Trust began
using RealPage's call center for its after-hours
calls, and considered going full-force with it. But the company
wanted to have greater control over the process. So in 2009, Camden
rolled out a 10-person internal call center, saying that it feels
its own employees could sell—and
cross-sell— apartment units to prospective
residents better than a third-party vendor.
Camden's call center is open from 7 a.m. to 7
p.m.—when about 90 percent of the
company's call volume is received. It still uses
RealPage to handle that additional 10 percent of calls coming in
"We looked at outsourcing it, and from a cost
perspective there really wasn't that much
difference," says Dennis Steen, CFO of the
Houston-based REIT. "But we felt that it made
better sense to have our own employees man the phones. We want
someone who, if they can't lease one unit in one
submarket, could refer the caller to another community down the
Yet those who champion outsourcing say that knowledge is easily
transferred. Multifamily firms using LevelOne, for instance,
provide the vendor with a "product
knowledge" packet, which details all of a
property's features and allows the property
owner/manager to privilege which points should be highlighted
"LevelOne is as good as the information that
the management company provides them," Barry says.
"That product knowledge packet is very in-depth,
probably 20 pages long." The packet is a living
document that can change as the property changes.
"We just installed wireless hot spots at one of
our communities, and if we want them to highlight a new feature
like that, we can change it on a whim," Barry
One criticism of outsourcing, from Camden and others, is that
the information used by the third-party is isolated to each
community. As Steen points out, cross-selling can be an important
sales tool, yet third-party call centers are more focused on
pushing the merits of the one community mentioned by the
But LevelOne is working on it. The company will soon roll out an
expanded product knowledge kit that includes more
"sister property" information.
"It won't be such a
silo," says Ben Holbrook, vice president of sales for
LevelOne. "We're going to
mirror what they do on site which is, if they were about to lose
the lead based on price and availability, we'd
be able to transfer the conversation to talk about a sister
In many ways, call centers are all about maximizing advertising
dollars. Multifamily companies spend on average about $170 per unit
annually in marketing
costs—that's more than
$50,000 a year for a 300-unit property. After spending so much to
create community awareness, those dollars are wasted if nobody
answers the call or e-mail.
But an equally important consideration is measuring any single
ad's effectiveness. After all, there are many
different ways to get the word out—ILSs,
Craigslist, traditional print advertising. But which gives you the
most bang for your buck?
It's not always easy to figure out just what
advertising source is responsible for driving a prospect to your
community (see "Traffic Control" on
opposite page). Often, a call center will start a guest card for
each prospect who calls, noting the advertising source that brought
in the prospect. But when the guest card is completed on site, the
source will change, either because the prospect forgets or the site
staff simply forgets to ask.
A study conducted by LevelOne last year outlined that disconnect
in a white paper, which matched the call
center's guest cards with its
clients' rent rolls. The study found that the
advertising source listed on the lease was wrong about 70 percent
of the time.
"All of these systems rely on a human
element," says John Helm, founder of San
Francisco-based ILS MyNewPlace. com. "The
consumer sometimes doesn't know or care, and the
site staff's trying to close the deal.
They're not going to interrogate someone about
how they found the community."
Like the rest of the ILS industry, Helm has struggled with
tracing the leads that began on his site all the way to a signed
lease. Spurred by the LevelOne study, Helm and his staff combed
through more than 200,000 records from his biggest clients to
determine the most accurate return on investment.
MyNewPlace found that, on average, its clients were spending
about $275 per lease. Armed with that information, MyNewPlace
decided to create a new pricing model. The firm now guarantees a
$275 lead-to-lease cost for its clients. If it
can't give an average cost of lease of $275, it
will give its clients a credit.
"We rolled out the guarantee program to tell
the customers, "˜Look, the tracking data in your
property management system is flawed. We're
highly confident that our leases close, and if
you'll let us prove it to you,
we'll refund you if we don't
come in with a certain cost-perlease
number,'" Helm explains.
Some management companies remain skeptical of the effectiveness
of ILSs, however. One criticism is that in the most competitive
markets, you have to pay for a more expensive premium listing, or
you'll get buried.
Van Metre recently cancelled its ILS listings with a few sites
after analyzing its return on investment. The company budgets about
$250 per lease for stabilized communities in its advertising budget
but found that while the costper- lead was spot-on, the
cost-per-lease was hefty. The firm spent about $1,350 to advertise
one of its communities with a premium ILS listing and found that it
generated about 34 leads in July, just $40 per lead. But those
leads resulted in only two leases, a whopping $675 per lease.
"A lot of firms justify their advertising cost
by the number of total leads they get in but not the number of
closes," Barry says. "But at the end
of the day, I'm looking at my numbers, and if
I'm over $250 per lease for any given
advertising source, then it makes me stop and think
twice." At least Barry can sleep well at night knowing
that, thanks to a call center, no leads are going unanswered.

After all this time, and all this science, scientists are still unsure of the evolutionary purpose of the female orgasm. Men have orgasms so they can ejaculate and spread their seed to continue their lineage. But why do women have orgasms? And more curiously, why do so few women — 1 out of 10 — actually have them? What it comes down to is this: No one can really figure it out. The female orgasm might be just as vestigial as lactation in men, a byproduct of a bygone part of our biological makeup that shows how very similar we really are. Not that we're complaining about our useless orgasms, but still. Sometimes it's cool to know what's going on behind all that excitement.
Only 10% of women have orgasms?!
Because…. that seems incorrect.
I'm pretty fucking sure more than 10% of women masturbate, and that's a means to orgasm. Right? RIGHT??
Okay, I'm about to go have an elusive female orgasm (or several) because I'm suddenly feeling extremely insecure about my ability to come. What if they take it away? WHAT IF??!?
There's no fucking way. Maybe only 1 in 10 women report having orgasms during intercourse. But I HIGHLY doubt only 1 in 10 women have ever had an orgasm in her lifetime.
Plus, why are scientists still arguing about this? Female orgasms obviously have an advantage when you (male scientists!) stop implicitly assuming rape is an evolutionarily advantageous mating strategy AND if you stop projecting contemporary sexism back into prehistory.
I think it's safe to assume that our ancient forebears had no fucking clue how reproduction actually worked. They likely understood that sex had something to do with it, but I doubt they even suspected the link between ejaculation and fertilization, especially given that human female ovulation is not obvious to the naked eye. Cavemen would have sex with cavewomen and sometimes a baby would be the result, sometimes not.
It's likely that ancient humans thought women were the main (re)producers of life, i.e. had the most control over when they conceived. Raping women randomly might get you offspring, but it might also get you kicked the fuck out of your tribe/village/whatever.
We also know for a fact that human children are helpless for a long time after birth. A woman recovering from childbirth couldn't go out and bring home a fucking wooly mammoth on her own. She needed a partner (or several) to help support her and her children while they were helpless. Given this (and some evidence from studying the few preindustrialized peoples left living in remote corners of the earth), it's likely that early humans raised children communally. That would ensure evolutionary success, not just a bunch of cave dudes putting their cave dicks into unwilling cave vaginas. Ensuring your genetic material survives is not necessarily just about reproducing as many kiddies as possible—it's also about making sure they actually survive into adulthood!
You can't ensure your bundles of genetic material (children) survive all the rigors of a harsh primitive existence without a little help from not only your baby mamas, but your baby mamas' mamas, papas, cousins, sisters, etc. And I doubt those necessarily tightly knit, extended family/kinship networks in early human societies would tolerate the men basically raping the women. We're inherently social creatures and coerced sex is inherently anti-social.
OK, so winding down: female orgasms make evolutionary sense because orgasms feel fucking great! Women who feel good are more likely to stick with a particular partner (or two, or three, if you believe that ancient peoples were poly, which I do). Figuring out how female sexual pleasure works is something that comes with time and necessitates a sensitive partner…not a rapist. Given everything I've discussed above, it makes more sense to think that female orgasms are not merely a vestigial scrap tossed to women, but something that ensured bonding among partners, which was necessary for evolutionary success.
That's the problem with speculation about evolution: If you start off with a bad, sexist, patriarchal, culturally-specific premise like, "female orgasms are useless", then your theories are going to be bad. Oftentimes, shifting to a feminist perspective can answer questions that many scientists have deemed mysterious.

Tata Steel and Caterpillar collaboration brings supply chain gains
12 Sep 2011
- Tata Steel and Caterpillar Steel Products alliance recognised for prestigious Annual Quality Improvement (AQI) award for significant supply chain improvements
- Local supply chains for Trackshoe Longbar product refined, generating global business efficiencies
Tata Steel is delighted to announce that, together with one of its principal clients, Caterpillar Steel Products, it has been shortlisted for Caterpillar Inc's AQI award for the Trackshoe Longbar supply chain project.
As the leading supplier of track shoe sections for Caterpillar's off-road construction equipment products, Tata Steel worked together with the manufacturer to improve upon existing local supply chains for greater global business efficiency. This drive for efficiency has resulted in Caterpillar Steel Products, in partnership with Tata Steel, winning the AQI award in the Remanufacturing and Components (RCD) division. The two partners' project has also been submitted to the Caterpillar Executive Office to compete for the Corporate AQI award.
The AQI award is one of Caterpillar's most prestigious honours. Winning projects are chosen on the basis of contributions towards business efficiency, high quality standards, collaboration, customer- and enterprise-related benefits and replicable qualities.
In the past, longer lead times for replacement track shoes led to greater stock and inventory levels. Tata Steel began looking at ways to reduce lead times and excess stock levels to ensure Caterpillar received replacement parts as and when they needed them. Through a number of key changes to the supply chain, Tata Steel, with the help of Caterpillar, managed to cut lead times to just five weeks.
Peter Gate, Global Account Manager for Caterpillar at Tata Steel, said: "We are delighted to have been working with Caterpillar on this project and are equally excited about having been able to add value to one of the world's most recognised brands. The Trackshoe Longbar supply chain project shows our commitment to continuously improving not only our product offering, but our service offering to customers too, and we are extremely proud of our association with the project and the award. We are more than just a commodity supplier and we look forward to working on future projects with Caterpillar."

Posts tagged love
Posts tagged love
Do not think to know all of me
When you know one thing about me
Do not assume to have a part of me
When you have the whole of me.
I am not
A perfect heroine
As strong as the tides
With everlasting beauty
Yet I will love fiercely
With all my heart
Just one touch
And you send me to darkness
Of the deepest red hues
As breathing quickens
And lips collide
A hasty retreat to privacy
Away from judgemental eyes.
And here I sit, drink to my side, enjoying the disorientation (and seeing the funny side to everything). And thinking about things that should be left for other times.
I still remember, when I was but seven, my idea of love was me in a cream petticoat dress, with flowers printed all over, and white lace hems. A parasol to keep the sun away, a handbag with whatever I felt important. And he in his crisp suit and shiny shoes, maybe a hat. A briefcase containing documents for work. And we would be holding hands, walking leisurely across the courtyard. We would talk and laugh and have lunch in a quaint tearoom. Then you would kiss me on the lips before we said goodbye.
Now, it's much simpler. It's just you.
I am afraid, so afraid, of being alone.
A funny thing, how quickly she accustoms herself to a body of warmth laying beside her each night, soft breathing lulling her to sleep.
Barely a year and I'm already unable to sleep without you here with me, even if just a screen.
Strong arms pulling her closer as skin touches skin, legs wrapped around each other, as close as two beings can be.
Am I just being pathetic? So afraid to be alone again, in the dark where no-one watches, but my own eyes see the past, the mistakes, it is so hard to resist.
She is kissed on her head, a whispered 'good night', a nuzzle in the neck as she loses reality.
Take me home.
Run away
From the danger
Of those suffocating arms
The black sleeves that
Have no body.
Run away
Instincts tell me
Fear that keeps my feet running
Far, far away
To stay alive.
Eyes open
And you're so far away
This fear won't reside
All I want is for you to
Hold me close
Until these nightmares go away.
Winner at love, loser of mind.
I thought I'd have gotten used to it by now, six months later. Leaving. Yet every time we say goodbye, when the train departs the platform, the imaginary string around my heart begins to tighten, growing taut as the other end is secured to him. And it squeezes my heart so painfully, cuts into the muscle, protesting at the distance already and he's not even out of sight, but the stone walls disappear to be replaced with hills rolling by, the string straining, restricting my breathing, and it comes to a point when I cannot take a breath so long I fear I could die the next instant. And then it snaps suddenly, as I drink in the air in long mouthfuls. And I feel…A king of sad relief. The pain is gone, replaced with a sudden longing, a hunger for one last kiss, one last embrace, one last touch. Something missing.
The emptiness is haunting, never-ending…
I lie alone in anticipation of the night you'll be with me,
As the rain pours down creating a sense of belonging
Just me and you
In a world of our own.

College graduates in the U.S. who display drunken photos on their social media profiles reduce their chances of securing an interview by 84 percent, AVG Technologies' latest Digital Diaries study reveals. The study of human resources professionals in the states, also found that more than 90 percent of them search for unprotected social media profiles in order to assess a candidate's suitability.
Digital Baggage, the sixth instalment of AVG's Digital Diaries study, features responses from 230 human resources professionals in the U.S. and the UK, and 4,400 18-25 year olds in 11 countries to AVG's questions on managing social network profiles.
Alarmingly, the research also found that the majority of 18-25 year olds had never reviewed their online profiles, which could potentially impact their career prospects. Recruiters can verify that young adults are not managing their profiles effectively, with nearly half of them concluding that this age group is unaware of the need to act responsibly online.
However, more than two-thirds of human resources professionals had been positively influenced by the online presence of a job applicant. Nearly three-quarters of them state they rely on LinkedIn to conduct their online searches. Within a competitive job market, there are major advantages for savvy-candidates to differentiate themselves by proactively managing, and contributing to their online profile.
Tony Anscombe, AVG Technologies commented: "AVG's latest research shows that the Internet and social networks in particular, have changed the way that human resources professionals approach the recruitment process. Nowadays, online content posted about, or by a candidate, has become the modern day equivalent of a first interview. AVG's research emphasises that our digital brand is potentially just as important as our resume. AVG encourages consumers to take control of their online privacy --- more than ever, young adults need to proactively manage their online brand to avoid missing out on career opportunities."
Other key findings pertaining to the U.S. include:
- More than 90 percent of human resources managers also consider posting nude photos online a reason to not interview candidates. Other reasons include: evidence of obnoxious behaviour (91 percent); a negative or derogatory comment about a previous employer (nearly 95 percent) and extremist views about topics such as race (93 percent).
- A range of social media platforms are used to vet candidates: Recruiters/human resources managers in the U.S. are accessing potential candidates using a range of web and social media platforms, Google (85 percent); Facebook (81 percent); LinkedIn (71 percent); Twitter (39 per cent) and Instagram (18 per cent); Flicker (15 per cent)
- A majority of recruiters/human resources managers, 62 percent, consider information they find online about prospective job candidates important or very important
- In the U.S., 40 percent of human resources managers somewhat trust what interview candidates post on LinkedIn
- Nearly 50 percent of recruiters/human resources managers have turned down a job applicant because of their online profile
- More than 40 percent of human resources professionals think that young adults are not aware of the need to act responsibly online and not post content that may embarrass them
- Nearly 60 percent of study respondents in the U.S. have not conducted an online audit of themselves to clean out information that may not be appropriate

About AVG Digital Diaries
The first stage of AVG's Digital Diaries campaign, Digital Birth, focused on children from birth to age two. The study, released in October 2010, found that on average, infants acquire a digital identity by the age of six months old. Nearly a quarter (23 percent) of children have had their pre-birth scans uploaded to the Internet by their parent – establishing a digital footprint even before birth. The second stage, Digital Skills, was released in January 2011 and showed that for two to five year olds, 'tech' skills are increasingly replacing 'life' skills. In fact, many toddlers could use a mouse and play a computer game, but could not ride a bike, swim or tie their shoelaces.
Digital Playground, released in June 2011, found nearly half of six to nine year olds talk to friends online and use social networks. This was followed with Digital Maturity in November 2011, which revealed how 11 year olds had developed adult skills in technology. Digital Coming of Age, the fifth instalment of AVG's Digital Diaries study released in April 2012, which interviewed parents of 14-17 year olds, found that nearly half of parents keep tabs on teens via Facebook, latest AVG Technologies' research reveals.
Research for all stages of the Digital Diaries series was conducted by Research Now on behalf of AVG Technologies.

This weekend was one of steady rain, even a hail storm in the mountain; nevertheless, 35,000 people braved the elements to take part in the annual Beirut Marathon. I was safely tucked away at home in Deir el-Qamar, glancing occasionally at the rain outside and the thick blanket of fog that had engulfed the house.
This traditional stew (yakhneh) is for this type of weather.
INGREDIENTS: 6 servings
- 1 lb stew meat (or 3 lamb shanks, cut into 2 inch chunks)
- 1 lb potatoes
- 1 lb tomatoes (or a large can)
- 2 onions, chopped
- 3 cloves of garlic (optional)
- 1/2 bunch of cilantro (optional)
- salt, pepper, dash of allspice, dash of cinnamon
- chopped parsley to garnish
- 1/4 cup of oil
- Sprinkle the meat with spices; heat the oil and brown the meat for 10 minutes on all sides. Pour 6 cups of tap water on the meat, cover and bring to a simmer; uncover the pot and skim the froth every time it appears. Cover the pot and let the meat simmer for 1 hour over very gentle heat, making sure a few bubbles appear every now and then.
- Meanwhile, dice the tomatoes and set aside. Peel and dice the potatoes and place in a bowl with water. Pound the garlic in a mortar with a dash of salt and set aside. Chop the cilantro leaves and set aside.
- Add the potatoes and tomatoes to the stew after one hour. Let the stew simmer for 30 minutes longer; meanwhile, heat the oil in a skillet and fry the onion till golden; add the chopped cilantro and mashed garlic and fry with the onion for 30 seconds until fragrant; add the onion and cilantro mixture to the stew the last 20 minutes of cooking. Serve the stew as is with some rice or bread.

PHNOM PENH (The Cambodia Herald) -- France has decided to increase its aid to the Khmer Rouge tribunal from €300,000 to €500,000 in 2013, French Ambassador Serge Mostura said Tuesday.

I am using TouchM responsive CSS, i would like to add the sorting option in my website do we really have this option in this.
Hi msavinson,
should be no problem! Have you read the documentation and have watched the HTML Site for the Portfolio cause of the Layout?? Otherwise please feel free to open a support Ticket, handling is much more easier for us
Thanks for getting back to me. Can i use the same login id ( which i am using now to login in this website ) to contact forum or do i need to create a new one. Can you send me the link to contact the support
Thanks in advance.
I am not sure about the documentation, after my purchase i have downloaded the ZIP file and using the CSS and JS in it. It's having a folder called "Documentation" i'm using this for my reference, are you refereeing to that ?
Hi there,
for ticket system you must verify your purchase and login to our system! Link is in the above Answer
Yes in Documentation there is a Section for it and also in the HTML Structure of the Theme there is a Demo Site where we have build a Portfolio.
Hi Guys, I am new to CSS, I need a carousel to display the list of images. Do we have this option in this theme if so please let me know.
Hi msavinson,
You can use the carousel from the home page (Recent Works) and use only images with no additional text. Hope this helps.
Love the wordpress version we're using but for the life of me can't figure out how to change the main three icons below the slider to Font Awesome icons. For example: block type="1" icon="service-responsive"
When I try replacing with block type="1" icon="question" which is what I think the Font Awesome instructions are telling me to, it comes up broken. Are these three large icons not Font Awesome? Are there ones to choose from that I could use easily? What am I doing wrong?
Thank you.
Hi gomakecontact,
The 3 blocks on the home page have the icons build as images but you can use font awesome icons as well.
Open you page where you have the 3 blocks (should be index.html in case you did not move the blocks on another page). In the blocks remove the images and replace them with
<i class="icon-what_icon_you_wana_use"> </i>.
After that just open you style.css and look for .service-icon and add you own style. To match the initial size and color you should have something like this:
font-size: 52px;color: #FF6633;
I hope this helps.Cheers
Last comment suggests a new template in mid October. Anxious to buy the TouchM theme, but would really prefer a Foundation 4 theme and/or a fresh theme.
Any updated release plans? Will the theme be Foundation 4?
Hi billc128,
We are currently working on a new theme but it will be based on Bootstrap v.3.0 and it will be released somewhere in the middle of November. The template is very big and very complex and it takes more that we estimate to develop.
4GraFx same question of gomakecontact (one comment above). I can replace the icon, but the size and effect dont change, even inserting
font-size: 52px;color: #FF6633;
the icon still small.
NVM 4GraFx , got it like that:

I Met This family… What A Joyful Experience!
I met this family. What a joyful experience!
They displayed Christ' love by their
gracious appearance!
At first I couldn't hardly believe what I was seeing!
The love and joy of Christ I was now receiving!
They didn't have much in the way of entertainment.
They had God's peace and a joyous contentment!
They were happy about God and also excited.
They talked about the good things in life.
And were delighted!
The simple things in their family did abound!
A peace and warmth in their home,
I certainly found!
A love for God in this home I was able to see!
What's good for them...
Is also good for me!
A respect for the parents was clear and evident.
I knew the Holy Spirit is the "chief resident!"
I'm thankful to God for the blessing they've been.
I'm glad that I know them and to call them friend!
May we all be encouraged by our families too!
May we not forget to say; "I LOVE YOU!"
May the love of Christ keep us all together!
May we seek his will today and forever!
Thank you lord for your goodness and grace!
We welcome you into our dwelling place!
By Jim Pemberton

Famous quotes containing the words career, cleaning, advance and/or housekeeping:
"Like the old soldier of the ballad, I now close my military career and just fade away, an old soldier who tried to do his duty as God gave him the light to see that duty. Goodbye."
—Douglas MacArthur (18801964)
"Conditional love is love that is turned off and on....Some parents only show their love after a child has done something that pleases them. I love you, honey, for cleaning your room! Children who think they need to earn love become people pleasers, or perfectionists. Those who are raised on conditional love never really feel loved."
—Louise Hart (20th century)
"Go, and catch a falling star,
Get with child a mandrake root,
Tell me, where all past years are,
Or who cleft the devils foot,
Teach me to her mermaids singing,
Or to keep off envys stinging,
And find
What wind
Serves to advance an honest mind."
—John Donne (c. 15721631)
"Feminism, like Boston, is a state of mind. It is the state of mind of women who realize that their whole position in the social order is antiquated, as a woman cooking over an open fire with heavy iron pots would know that her entire housekeeping was out of date."
—Rheta Childe Dorr (18661948)
